quick question, hopefully can get answered in the next 10 minutes, before I go to bed. Where abouts in Eterna City is TM 46 Thief?

 

[ihcati]

use Cut next to Galactic Building. Theres a path to the right, follow it to get a Pokeball. It has thief.

Is a Rock Head Rhydon (obtained in D/P, not transfered) guaranteed to turn into a Solid Rock Rhyperior?

so long as it is D/P obtained (bred or caught) and not Pal Parked (from an earlier version) Rock Head will STAY Rock Head.

the same, however, cannot be said of PAL parked Rock Head or Lightning Rod.

Rhyperior doesn't have Rock Head. It will turn into Solid Rock.

Question A: Is it possible to get Explosion outside of the Game Corner?
Question B: How can I get to Tower Tycoon Palmer in the Battle Tower? Every time I win 7 times, I get transported back.

 

[GonE]

Answer A: No
Anser B: It doesn't matter if you are transported back. Just participate twice and you will face him.

Since the Choice Scarf makes getting a Transform off viable, what happens to Ditto after he uses Transform while wearing the Choice Scarf? Once he transforms, he won't have access to Transform anymore. Can he use any move he has and be locked in, or will he be forced to Struggle?

Is that good enough for a special tank? I need to know because I have to go soon and I just caught it but haven't save yet.

How are max stats calculated on a per pokemon bases?
Example: Empleon
Ivs: HP 28 - Att 4 - Def 21 - SpAtt 12 - SpDef 28 - Speed 24
Evs: 200 0 56 200 54 0

Given the stat information at the bottom of this page, and the knowledge that IVs are worth 1 point each at level 100, and that 4 EVs is equivalent to 1 stat point, you can work it out.

This is an ultimate newb question, but what does Choice Specs and Choice Scarf do, and where do you get them?

This is an ultimate newb question, but what does Choice Specs and Choice Scarf do, and where do you get them?

You should check the item description thread in the D/P analyses. Choice Specs raises a Pokemon's special attack move by 1.5, but you can only stick to one attack, unless you switch. Same thing for Scarf, except it raises your speed by 1.5 instead. You get specs from the guy in Celestic Town. You have to visit him around some time. I forgot. And scarf, you have to use battle points to get it.


BTW, I was wondering why some people decide to put EVs into Metagross if its slow anyway?

 

[MiddleAgePokeTrainer]

Empoleon base HP is 84 so i would take 84 plus 28 from IV and 50 from EV (200/4)
84+28+50=162??!! Hes level 50ish now and has 182.

Alright, thanks.

Choice Specs: Increases special moves by 50% but forces you to use the first move you select until you switch or faint. Obtained from a man in the top left house in Celestial town between 4.00am - 9.59am (morning) any day.
Choice Scarf: Increases speed by 50% but forces you to use the first move you select until you switch or faint. Obtained as one of the prizes in the Battle Park (Battle Tower). It costs 48 Battle Points.

Its HP is going to be 357

 

[Too_Hungry35]

I was wondering, but why do people still decide to put speed EVs in Metagross if he's still slow?

 

[MiddleAgePokeTrainer]

How did you get that? I think im failing to see somthing.

 

[pooch]

Bottom of the page I linked has:

Max Stats
Neutral Nature372271275321301219
These stats assume 31 IVs and 252 EVs. Subtract 94 from them and you have the "neutral" stat, stripped of IVs and EVs, to which you can add your own IVs and EVs. I had to work this out for myself, too!

 

[pooch]

I'd edit that, but I can't edit. Suffice to say, you should know where to look now.

 

[MiddleAgePokeTrainer]

AhHH that makes sence now thanks for your time!!!

So to figure everything out, you have to use the Neutral Nature stuff? I thought your suppose to do it from the Beneficial Natures?

 

[MattXei]

Hey! Stupid question I know, but where do you buy ethers from in the game?

 

[MiddleAgePokeTrainer]

@Too Hungry35 I would guess that you use Benifical nature if for instance you have an adamant and you want to calculate max attack and you use Hindering to check its max sp.att.

 

[Nicar]

You can't buy them anywhere but if you have a Pokémon with Pick-Up between level 31 and 50 you have a 1 % chance of getting one after every battle.

 

[Too_Hungry35]

@MattXei There on the second floor of the veilstone shopping mart.

@Too Hungry35 I would guess that you use Benifical nature if for instance you have an adamant and you want to calculate max attack and you use Hindering to check its max sp.att.

So your saying for the stats are all neutral, you would use the Neutral stats? And for the bebeficial and hindering, you would check those too right?
