but im still pretty sure i saw a shuckle with baton pass... I wish i remember which thread it was :(

I can virtually guarantee that Shcukle does not learn Baton Pass. The only possible exception would be an event giveaway that none of us have ever heard of. Whoever made that post must have misread Shuckle's move list.
 
What is a good Latios moveset w/o Soul Dew? (For Battle Tower Use)

Latios @ Life Orb
Current Stats:
IVs 14/7/20/14/4/31
EVs 6 HP, 252 SA, 252 Spe

Psychic
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Recover

My Latios should technically have Calm Mind and/or Dragon Pulse one way or another. I'm just interested in how I should go about changing things around.
 
Exactly how much does Double Team increase evasion by? Yeah, I know, "one stage", but I mean how much does it change the hit percentage of the opposing Pokemon's moves? Is this different for Minimize? How does Sand Attack work?
 
Hmm...on an Adamant Dragonite, which would be more beneficial: Ice punch from emerald or Dragon Rush from DP? Thomaz has an almost flawless Ice punch one, so I'm relunctant to do that, but if ice punch isn't used very often I could also do Dragon Rush for originality xD

didn't want it to not be seen

Is shoddy battle worth downloading?

If you plan on battling at all, in the real game or even just on shoddy, then YES. its so freakin helpful, and you'll want to test your teams before breeding them.

Unless one of the guides in C&C is wrong, here is how the Accuracy and Evasion modifiers work:

(multipliers to the move's Accuracy)

--Accuracy Modifiers
-6: 3/9 (0.3333)
-5: 3/8 (0.375)
-4: 3/7 (0.4285)
-3: 3/6 (0.5)
-2: 3/5 (0.6)
-1: 3/4 (0.75)
0: 3/3 (1)
+1: 4/3 (1.3333)
+2: 5/3 (1.6666)
+3: 6/3 (2)
+4: 7/3 (2.3333)
+5: 8/3 (2.6666)
+6: 9/3 (3)

--Evasion Modifiers
-6: 9/3 (3)
-5: 8/3 (2.6666)
-4: 7/3 (2.3333)
-3: 6/3 (2)
-2: 5/3 (1.6666)
-1: 4/3 (1.3333)
0: 3/3 (1)
+1: 3/4 (0.75)
+2: 3/5 (0.6)
+3: 3/6 (0.5)

There's really no point to Dragon Rush when there's Dragon Claw and Outrage.
Both are 100% accurate.

Ice punch is infinitely better given that Dragonite learns outrage.
 
So what does ice punch cover that outrage and dragon claw do not, exactly?

Regardless, I'll breed it in emerald then.

Also, As far as I can tell, none of the egg moves seem needed, but am I wrong?
 
Deoxy-E (the one from Emerald, speed version) is OU. The others are Ubers.

This is because the speed isn't that gamebreaking without the other stats to back it up. Try searching the Policy Review Forum for more on this.
 
Well, if you want to use it in Emerald, where it doesn't learn DD, breed it by all means. Unless you want Light Screen on it (it doesn't by TM) which is for Defensive Dragonite mostly.

So basically nothing needed for DP xD Thanks, saves me the trouble of trying to catch everything for the egg moves.
 
Do you have a good Gyarados in Emerald? Best to do that first, as Dratini can be really annoying to hatch.

Ah, well I unfortunatly haven't bred anything in Emerald yet, so I have nothing. So you think I should breed a trip- or quad- flawless male gyarados and level it for dragon dance first?
