Pokemon Bank Update - Gen 1 TMs?
- Thread starter Boa1891
- Start date
Well, I do want to say that I am SO glad that I can get BP as a reward and it continues from the last time I used it. I got like 1600 BP right now - more than enough to buy ANYTHING I could want right now
Does anyone know how genders are determined in gen 1?
You can manipulate the nature, HA are guaranteed. You get 3 perfect IVs guaranteed, but they are not soft-resettable or RNG-able as far as we know. Good thing you can bottle cap them though.
Not quite: the actual G2 check is for exactly 10 in speed, special, and defense, with attack only checking the second-to-low bit for being 1. The Bank check reverses the roles of attack and defense, presumably in error.
(0)A/A/A/A is shiny under both interpretations, but the other seven shiny spreads (0)2/A/A/A, (8)3/A/A/A, (0)6/A/A/A, (8)7/A/A/A, (8)B/A/A/A, (0)E/A/A/A, and (8)F/A/A/A are not properly recognized as such. Meanwhile, seven other spreads popped up in their place: (0)A/2/A/A, (4)A/3/A/A, (0)A/6/A/A, (4)A/7/A/A, (4)A/B/A/A, (0)A/E/A/A, and (4)A/F/A/A, which wouldn't become shiny if it was possible to send them to GSC, but will do so if you send them to Bank instead.
If you want to accurately get experience, the Day Care increases experience by 1 per step.
That being said, you'd need to do 26 steps if you only need to increase the Modulo by 1 (one step away, and another to get next to the Day-Care Man again). This may also apply for other certain step counts.

about the exp, I think using the exp.all in gen I can yield 0 exp points to the party members, so it could as well give 1 point to each member of the party depending of what you're battling.
Also, you can get an odd advance of exp points in the daycare using fly, as you can uneven the number of steps to go back to the daycare

Hey guys, I found a way to manipulate DVs individually in Gen 1 to force shininess when transferring to Gen 7! As we all know already, Poke Bank uses DVs to determine shininess of Gen 1 Pokemon. If Speed, Special, Atk and Def DVs of a Gen 1 Pokemon are all equal to 10, it will be shiny when transferred!
I recorded the process and actually made it on the first try!
The process is ridiculously tedious though, you have been warned. But is it worth it? That depends. In my opinion, it is worth it.

It's actually easier than that too, because you can just exit the daycare by walking straight down (the lefthand side of the door). Exiting the door when you're standing on it doesn't take a step, but pressing Up to re-enter the house does, so you will get an odd step count just by walking back to him.
For japanese R/B:
1. increase the target pokemon's exp to 170 over a multiple of 256
2. deposit 44 item slots in the pc
3. put the target pokemon in the 2nd party slot, go to the pc and put the pointer over the 32nd item, click select, then quit the pc menu quickly
4. encounter a wild pokemon, put the pointer over the last move of the pokemon sent out, click select
5. run from the battle, go to the pc and click select over the 43rd item
6. repeat #4
7. repeat #1
8. repeat #3#4, go to the pc and click select over the 44th item
9. repeat #4

Do you know if there is a way to buy JPN R/B/G/Y on a English 3DS?
I don't believe so unless you homebrew your 3DS and manually load the foreign VC game into the 3DS. I don't even know if that can be done.
Someone on Reddit has figured out how to make any mew you get transferable.
If this is done, would Smogon consider this Mew hacked?

I've been checking, and the OT and Trainer ID match (according to Bulbapedia) that of an event Mew given last november, in the Nintendo UK's Pokemon Festival, for the release of Sun and Moon, and they had all DVs at 15.
Unaware Clefable
As for Reflect, I'm thinking Electrode. Its speed was buffed to 150 this generation, it already gets Light Screen, it can use Volt Switch or Explosion to bring in a team mate once it's finished setting up screens, and its Hidden Ability Aftermath allows it to double as a sac against physical attackers.

Doesn't know how to attack
I am corrected by the post below.
For Seismic Toss, Friend Guard Clefairy gets to deal damage and Inner Focus Kangaskhan could be used in Doubles for a turn of Fake Out Flinch Immunity before Mega Evolution if you really hate Fake Out. For Reflect, I'd say ask someone else.
By the way, has anyone tried Glitching a move onto a Pokemon that it can only learn in later games then try to transfer them yet? I don't really care if it works. I just like the effects of glitches. :D

Since it's already a glitch mon, and you have to edit it in a manner that allows it to bypass Bank's checks, yes it would be considered hacked on Smogon.
Any thought of "Solar Beam" should be thought of instead as "Bloom Doom". At 190 BP, the one-shot Bloom Doom is as strong as a 1-turn Solar Beam with Choice Specs.
This is far more powerful vs Water Types than Freeze Dry or Thunderbolt.
252+ SpA Lapras Bloom Doom vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Suicune: 302-356 (74.7 - 88.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
252+ SpA Choice Specs Lapras Freeze-Dry vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Suicune: 252-296 (62.3 - 73.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
252+ SpA Choice Specs Lapras Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Suicune: 214-254 (52.9 - 62.8%) -- 99.6% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
Yes, I just compared "itemless" Bloom Doom vs Choice Specs, and Bloom Doom is just that much stronger. I think that holds some promise in whatever tier Lapras ends up in.

awesome stuff, excited to try it. do you know of a way to do this wth 8 F in R/B as well?
Someone already made a guide for Red/Blue:
https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/5q4meg/how_to_trick_pokebank_into_thinking_your_gen_1/
That includes a guide on how to transfer Mew as well. That way you'll get a Shiny 5IV Mew. I'll make one for Yellow soon.
in that guide, when it says x acc178/177* , does that mean an x accuracy in slot 4 x178 and another x accuracy in slot 5 x177, or start with 178, use 8 F , toss an x accuracy and use 8 F again?
