Does the synchonizer trick work in advanced games? Yoko said it did'nt so I'm seeing if anyone can confirm this.

Only in Emerald, it doesn't work on ruby, saphire, leaf green or fire red.
It only works on wild pokemon tough not in legends.
 
Am I allowed to post a thread asking for someone to EV train my pokes on the Wi-Fi board? It's a HUGE job, like 20 or so pokes. Is this okay?

nope, somebody did that some days ago and his thread got closed. Use the Smogon services thread, there is a link somewhere in the stickies I think.

It's meant to be a Choice Band sweeper for a Double Battle Battle Tower team
 
what is the chance of hatching a shiney from breeding?

Astronomical. I remember reading somewhere that if you breed for 6 months, stopping only to sleep, eat, and drink you would only have a fraction of a chance to hatch a shiny. Even less if you want a specific nature and ability.


What is the tier status of Magneton and Magnemite?
 
does anyone have any suggestions for a really good team in Pokemon fire red? i started out with bulbasaur.. oh, and providing some movesets would help a lot...thanks! =)
 
Okay, so my parents are a Trapinch and a Caterpie. Caterpie has an Everstone attached to it. But for some reason none of the offspring have the same nature (Hasty) as the mother (Caterpie). Now, I am using the quick hatch code and all, but it's never done this before. It seems all the natures are still being produced at random. Any ideas why?

I've heard that dittos from a different version of the game (different language like japanese) don't pass natures, I assume it also happens like that for female pokemon.

Well that doesn't seem to be the case here. The male is German, but the female is all-American. =) I'm testing other pokemon at the moment, but it seems that the nature is passing fine on other pokes.

That is the case then, I explained it wrong. If the 2 parents are from different nationalities then the mother/ditto won't pass the nature even when using everstone.
Your test proves it, because using the same american mother with other american pokemon you are passing the nature fine.
 
If I use Pokerus, Power Bracer, and battle a Pokemon giving two EVs, how many EVs do i gain total? Is it (2x2)+4=8 or something else?

Hey, thanks a bunch! It's a bit of a bummer, since my parent was a pretty good one, but it's a good thing to know. And just when I thought I knew all the ins and outs of Pokemon mechanics...
