Hey I just resetted this shiny Diancie, does the HP IV kill it?
30/31/31/x/31/0 Sassy Diancie
Intended set:
Diancie @ Mental Herb
Nature: Sassy
EVs: 252 HP/88 Def/168 SpD - allows it to survive +6 Talonflame's Brave Bird after rocks
Moves:
- Trick Room
- Stealth Rock
- Explosion
- Diamond Storm
Pokerus essentially acts as a boost in terms of the number of EVs gained. For example, if your Charizard defeats a wild Gardevoir without Pokerus (again, I'm pretty sure you can't find wild Gardevoir, just saying), then it will recieve 3 SpA EVs. If under the effect of Pokerus, the number of EVs...
There's also stuff like Metal Sound Zapdos, Selfdestruct Mewtwo, Refresh Pidgeot, Seismic Toss Registeel/Regirock, Tri-Attack + Baton Pass Togetic, Double-Edge Huntail (all Gen 3 mons off the top of my head) and I also remember trying to get a Solrock with Morning Sun until I realized it was...
Hey guys, I just got another meh-looking shiny Diancie:
Relaxed, 30-31/30-31/30-31/31/30-31/2-3
Stats: 125/120/187/120/170/50
Keep or toss? Is Relaxed a viable alternative to the Trick Room (Sassy) moveset in the Smogon Dex?
Hi guys, I was SRing for a shiny Diancie on my JPN 3DS and I'd like to know whether this is usable:
Careful nature, 31/30-31/30-31/x/30-31/30-31
If it is, can you guys recommend a spread/moveset for it? Thanks :)
I'm well aware that Special Entei is greatly outclassed by the physical build with Sacred Fire, but your tone seems a bit condescending and very rude. Sorry if that offends you.
Hi there man, welcome to Smogon! Unfortunately I don't think many people will trade a high-IV legendary for...
Hey guys, I just RNGd a Timid Entei with HP Grass (31/2/31/30/31/31 from Heart Gold.) Are there any suggestions on a good moveset/EV spread, like maybe SubCM? I already have an Adamant one and want two different builds.
Edit: I also have a Timid Lugia with Pressure and an Adamant Ho-Oh with...
Only Timid Mega Charizard Y's Fire Blast changes from a guaranteed 3HKO to an occasional 2HKO. Here are the numbers:
252 SpA Mega Charizard Y Fire Blast vs. 120 HP / 0 SpD Zygarde in Sun: 164-193 (42.3 - 49.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
252 SpA Mega Charizard Y Fire Blast vs. 116 HP / 0 SpD Zygarde in...
This one's pretty tough. What do you guys think?
Adamant Zygarde, Dusk Ball, 31/31/31/x/31/30 (lol)
Keep or toss?
I'm leaning towards keep since I can try the DDRest set with an alternative EV spread of 116 HP/252 Atk/140 Spe (I'd like to know whether it makes a difference in bulk.)
Thanks Paragon189!
New question: How would one go about RNGing specific TID/SID combos in Emerald (emulator) so that a specific shiny spread can be obtained? I am trying to obtain a flawless shiny Timid Mew 31/x/31/31/31/31 (PID 4CADA8E9) which can be found on frame 246 686 782 (ugh.) However...
You'll probably want to aim for 31 Speed (the stat your nature boosts should generally be 31). I'd try 31/27+/25+/31/25+/31 or something of that nature (you can also try Life Orb numbers for HP)
I would say toss.
