Well yeah, Machamps ability No Guard means it can hit fliers, bouncers, diggers, divers and probably even a Giratina using Shadow Force.

Ask in this thread. It could be OK in NU as a Leafeon I guess...
Not a great idea, as Breloom has difficulty with Salamence (which will slowly lower Breloom's Attack boosts with Intimidate). Metagross is usually the BP recipient of choice because it is great defensively and is immune to Intimidate. Meteor Mash, Bullet Punch, Earthquake and ThunderPunch gives you few problems with a massive Attack score.
Why do legendary IVs act differently from those of other pokemon? And when team building, what requirements must be filled to get valid IVs?
Okay, I'm looking for a trapper, and Umbreon's page says he can learn both mean look and baton pass. I've checked Bulbapedia, and I know how he learns mean look, but I can't find a thing anywhere about how to teach him baton pass. And I mean anywhere. Are my eyes going bad here? If not, does anyone know how he learns it?
Eevee learns Baton Pass at level 36.
Hold it from evolving until it learns it then change it to Umbreon.
I was hoping to see what would happen to Garchomp and Skymin.
That is...unfortunate.
I don't think anyone knows why... it could be a glitch, for all we now. On Shoddy it won't let you battle with the team if it has invalid IVs (and will offer to change them for you if they are incorrect when you are about to save the team), and obviously you're not going to catch a Pokemon with invalid IVs in-game. So basically it doesn't matter that much.
I'm considering building a team with multiple memento users and multiple set up sweepers to take advantage of the free turns. What tier would this tactic be most viable in?
Also what other Pokemon could contribute to this kind of team?

Each pokémon is only in the garden the day Mr. Backlot sees them, and the day after that. So yes, the dittos will be gone.
I was wondering if I could ask a question here about the process of receiving Jirachi w/draco meteor. I am aware that it requires an action replay code, I don't have a problem with that, as I have one (seeing as I can't fly to japan).
When receiving the Jirachi (using the code) in an english version, are you supposed to receive it as an egg? If so, is the title of said egg "bad egg" or is there something I have done wrong?

Thanks for your reply.
Another question, is there any reason why the choice band metagross on smogon doesn't max its attack EV?
From the EVs section:
For most sets, you will definitely want to focus on Metagross' HP and Attack. You'll also want to make a small investment in your Defense; 252 HP and 12 Defense EVs allow you to survive an Adamant Choice Band Dugtrio's Earthquake 100% of the time when at full health. Otherwise, the rest of the EVs should be allocated in Attack and Speed.
On the Choice Band and Lead sets, it is recommended that you run anywhere from 8-16 Speed EVs so you outspeed threats than hang around the 176-177 mark, primarily being Skarmory and Magnezone. After investing in Speed, you can outspeed Skarmory and KO it with ThunderPunch before it can recover with Roost; the same situation applies to Magnezone, except that you will only beat it if you're stuck on Earthquake.
Considering that Dugtrio is now UU, would allocating the Defense EV into attack be a viable option?
Thanks btw: )
If you're not worried about Dugtrio, then by all means move those Defense EVs to Attack. 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 Spe certainly looks good to me.
I see, thanks: )
Incorrect. The garden contents only change when you talk to the guy. So if you get Eevees in there and then stop playing for a year, when you pick the game back up the Eevees will still be hanging out.
Confirming this. My dittos are still there even though I've not touched my Platinum in over a week.
The kind of legendary, one form evolution Pokemon like Jirachi never comes from an egg. An exception being Manaphy from Pokemon Ranger.
Also, the met status for this Jirachi is "Apparently had a fateful encounter" at lv.5, so that totally eliminate the chance of receiving it as an egg.
If you want a legit made one, I can PM you the code with the correct hex values and such. But if you want to make one yourself and have understanding of hex value and PID/IV relations, then go to Serebii's Wifi Event Page/Project Pokemon's Event Downloads for the legit details that would be required.
