n the case of tyrogue, you can breed the 3 hitmon with ditto. In the case of volbeat, the baby hatched from an illumise egg can be both a volbeat or an illumise, so just breed the male pokemon which passes the egg move with an illumise.

Then how does it learn Helping Hands? None of the Hitmons learn it as a level-up move. The only parent happens to be Volbeat.

Unless I can get a baby Tyrogue from Volbeat + Hitmon... Gay breed?

The Hitmonchan in XD has Helping Hand. That and Ditto will make a HH Tyrogue. Also, Tyrogue learns it by itself now.

Tyrouge learns it when it hatches. If it had too many egg moves when it hatched, then it can be gotten from the Move Relearner in Pastoria.

Alternatively, they can get it from the Helping Hand move tutor in Snowpoint in Platinum
 
I thought Tyrogue was born with Helping Hand, or just learned it with the move relearner =/

Also, if you cant get it, i think theres a Platinum Tutor that gives Helping hand ._.

Edit: Look at that, the answers were almost at the exact same time, i was too slow =/
Edit 2: Hehe, not the slowEST xD
 
I'm trying to chain Dittoes in Platinum, and got a question. I currently have a Scyther lead to False Swipe + catch, and it's not working that well. So I'm wondering, after Ditto uses Transform, how would Net Ball work on them? Would it consider the Ditto as Bug type?

I think so, but I'm not positive. However, Ditto copies the catch rate of whatever it turns into, so there is a better solution either way: once you see a Ditto, switch to a Magikarp and toss an Ultra Ball for a practically guaranteed capture.

repeat ball is 200 cheaper and is guaranteed.
 
When do they unlock? I've been to the room they're in, with the event Regigigas, but they aren't in the rooms.

Do I need to beat the E4 first?
 
thetorsoboy, I'm pretty sure you'd need to beat the Elite 4, since none of the Regis are in the Sinnoh Dex.

Do I get the bonus 4x catch rate if I'm trying to capture Distortion World's Giratina in a Dusk Ball AT NIGHT, or does it not apply there?
 
IVs are set when you obtain the pokemon and cannot be manipulated.

EVs are obtained from gaining [any] experience. The pokemon you KO determines what EVs you will gain (ex. KOing bidoof gives you 1 HP EV, while Bibarel gives you 2 Atk EVs). You'll need to use online resources to know what gives what EVs.

You'll stop gaining EVs after they are maxed out, or when you stop gaining experience.

I see, so you have to start counting your EV's from the beginning?
 
Yes. Pokemon will not start with any EVs, regardless of whether you've caught it or hatched it. Start counting from your first battle.
 
Also, I'm breeding for several Dewgongs and Walreins, so I can abuse both Rain and Hail...Does MixGong work with Blizzard and Ice Shard?
