There's probably not a thread on Freeze Dry since for all we know it's entirely exclusive to Aurorus and doesn't need to be discussed outside of an Aurorus thread.

It isn't exclusive to Aurorus, i dont remember who but i do remember getting OHKO'd on my Greninja with something i didnt expect to hurt me with Freeze Dry. Sorry i can't remember who or what pokemon it was.

 

[S1GH]

if both parents have the same ability is it still possible to pass down the 'wrong one' ?

 

[Icetom1024]

Yes, while i was breeding male/female protean froakies, torrent slipped through sometimes.

 

[Kadabrium]

Or 10 turns?

No idea where to post this so I'm doing it here.

I'm currently thinking of making a team that includes non-Adaptability (since unavailable now) Sp Def Dragalge and Adamant SD MMawile. Any suggestions as to what pokemon could complement these two? Anything is appreciated, I don't care about tiers yet, but no Aegislash because everyone and their mother uses him. I really want to include a Pidgeot in there somewhere now that it's been buffed, but that's the favoritism talking.

Will the Pokébank thingy have some sort of hack-protection? My girlfriend Action Replayed some of her Pokémon and now she's afraid she won't be able to transfer them. :D

No hacked pokemon will be able to get into the PokeBank

How about Gengar? That's all that comes to mind right now.

Is the only way to get infiltrator zubat via hordes?

Outside of friend safari, i would believe so, just set up a sub in a horde. That should narrow it down to which has prankster.

 

[ApathyandToast]

Ah good idea. Yeah I don't think the zubat line is in safari

What's the best way to start breeding Pokemon for competitive play in the game? I was thinking destiny knot-ing a flawless Ditto, with the pokemon of choice, but getting a flawless/near flawless Ditto's almost..impossible. Thanks!

what i did was to trade for a ditto (didnt have access to safari) and find the other parent in safari.
for me, it was a 31 def/31 sp def ditto and a 31 hp/31 speed frogadier with protean.
over the past 2 days i've worked my way up to a 31/31/x/31/31/31 froakie as the father and a x/31/31/x/x/31 froakie with protean as the mother
its just a matter of replacing your parents when they get better, without accidentally ignoring a stat if you can avoid it (example, if i changed the mother to 31/31/x/x/x/31 i would get the chance to pass down perfect hp but lose the chance to pass perfect defense as the father doesnt have it, overall weakening my breeding)

you want everstone to keep the nature, make sure the female has the ability you want (they have 80% chance to pass it down) and destiny knot on whichever parent doesn't have the everstone and hope for offpsring with 3 or 4 IVs to replace one as you go.

Can someone perhaps detail TM-60, Quash, better than, "The user suppresses it's target and makes its move go last"? What does it do, and does it have any kind of competitive value?

From what i understand, it makes your target go last in the turn. So say in a doubles battle, my aerodactyl and shuckle vs your weavile and camerupt, if my aerodactyl is faster than your weavile and somehow uses quash on weavile, weavile's turn moves after camerupt and after shuckle

this is only for the turn quash is used. Useless in singles, but doubles and higher it has its uses

What nature and EV spread should I use on a defogging Crobat with cross poison and probably U-turn?

Well I just hatched my Lapras egg and it has Freeze-Dry. FUCK YES (water/ground pokemon, Gyarados, and Palkia just shuddered).
