Anybody? I can get some important OHKOs such as Hippopowdon and Rhyperior by using more SpA EVs. Wait, must Mamoswine used on hail be mixed?
Also, CBNite:
Outrage
EQ
Fire Punch
Ice Punch? Ice Punch lets Dragonite OHKO even the most defensive Gliscor, which is handy; or should I use Stone Edge?

Mixmamo is pretty good in hail with Blizzard's accuracy being 100% and he only needs 20 evs in Spatk(with a Naughty nature) to 2HKO the standard Skarmory.

Oh and Aqua tail does a whole bunch to Gliscor, while being a better move to be stuck in, as neutral coverage should be the main thing for a choice user.
 
But Mamoswine can OHKO many more stuff with a little more SpA-why not do that?
Also note that Aqua Tail will not OHKO, but Ice Punch will; Aqua Tail will OHKO Heatran. So it's either Aqua Tail, Ice Punch or Stone Edge. Maybe even Thunderpunch or Aerial Ace?

Aqua tail can 2hko both Hippowdon and Gliscor and is a good filler move for that reason alone. Earthquake\Outrage\Fire punch already give near perfect coverage.
Also note that Articuno is almost non existent in OU.
 
So Aqua Tail; I love Water attacks too :P ...
Mamoswine can OHKO more things using more SpA; is it worth it? Otherwise, using a move just for some metallic bird doesn;t really appeal to me...
 
I got my Pokemon EV trained until 508 EV out of 2510. So I went to the Sunyshore Effort Ribbon lady and she said my Pokmemon could use some more work. Then I gave HP Up to my pokemon, went to the effort ribbon lady again and she granted me an Effport Ribbon. Could it be that HP Up raised my 208 to 510 ? Or is that impossible?

First of all, you have so many number typos it's almost impossible to tell what you're talking about.

Anyway, she gives you the ribbon once you have 510 EVs total. The vitamins will increase by 10 EVs, but only up to 100 EVs. Once you have a total of 100 EVs in one stat, the vitamins for that stat wont work anymore.

How do I remove font tags when I copy paste a post from another source like Word Document?

I find that pasting the post into Notepad usually removes the font tags.

508 EV's out of 2510... what? I don't understand what you mean.

510 is the total amount of EV's a Pokemon can get. If you invested 254 EV's into two stats (making a total of 508 EV's on the Pokemon like you implied), then yes, the Effort Lady would not give your Pokemon an Effort Ribbon until it had attained all possible 510 EV's. The HP up you gave to your Pokemon most likely just gave it the last 2 EV's it needed to get that total of 510, and thus earn the Effort Ribbon.
 
I shall explain it again.
My Bagon has 508 EV gained.
I talk to the Effort Ribbon lady and she doesn't grant me the ribbon.
Afterwards I give Hp Up to Bagon and talk to the effort lady again. Now she gives me the effort Ribbon.
Is it possible for HpUp (Vitamins in general) to increase EV by 2 ?

If you have no HP EVs in that Bagon, then yes, the HP Up will increase HP EVs by 10. Since the maximum total EVs is 510, however, the HP Up just brought it up to 510.
 
Where the best place to gain some money? Anyone know a few trainers?
In Diamond, as I dont have Plat yet.Besides the Pokemon League, I just need some quick cash.
 
Can be used

No. The only item that Giratina-Origin Forme can hold outside of the Distortion World without hacking is the Gliserous (Platinum) Orb.

And Giritina-O cannot be used at all on Wi-Fi; it will automatically transform back to Giratina-A. Giritina-O can be used on local DS-to-DS wireless battles, though (but the restriction about it only being able to hold the Gliserous Orb still applies).

Actually, Giratona-o and all the new formes on platinum can be on wifi thanks to a code that the pokesav have made

I feel stupid for asking but if I trade a lvl 1 Scizor to my Platinum when I'm just starting out my Platinum, will listen to me?
Click to expand...

Yeah, but only until it's past level 10 if you don't have any badges yet. If you have all the badges already it'll listen to you no matter its level.

This is only in the Union Room (local wireless trading).

Amulet Coin in the Pokemon League is usually the best option, but you could also use the Vs. Seeker against the Socialite and Gentleman near the Pokemon Mansion. They give 18,000 bucks per battle if you use the Amulet Coin. You could also sell useless items and stuff you find from the Underground.

Anybody? 66SpA for MixMamo or even more?

Test Mamoswine in a couple of battles, and see how it works for you. If you feel it really needs more for some reason, feel free to amp it up.
