what if one was bred before all this nonsense happened?

I'm not arguing your point, however with 5IV and 5IV your only outcome is the exact IV spread or 4 IV. With the 6IV and 5IV you could still get a 5IV, but not the target spread.No matter what, you can't control what stat the RNG will pick to come up random. If the random stat is NOT in the desired place (the x in your desired 5IV spread, like 31/x/31/31/31/31 or 31/31/31/x/31/31), then it's highly unlikely that egg will hatch into the 5IV that you want (as you'd be dependent on the RNG randomly giving you 31 for that stat).
If you breed with a 5IV and a 6IV pokemon, the absolute worst pokemon you can get is a 4IV pokemon, as the RNG can pick the random stat to be in something that both parents have 31 in, and can pick the 5IV parent to pass down its imperfect x stat.
If you breed 2 5IV pokemon with x in different stats, then it is possible to get 3IV eggs: the random stat in something both parents have perfect in, father's x stat, and the mother's x stat. This is sub-optimal over the 5IVx6IV breed, which guarantees 4IVs or better.
Now, let's say you're breeding with 2 5IV pokemon with x in the same stat. Just like the 5IVx6IV breed, the absolute worst you can expect is 4IVs: the RNG can pick the random stat in something perfect, plus the RNG can pick the x stat for either the mother or the father. The problem with this is that you're more likely to get 4IV pokemon, as the RNG can pick the mother to pass the x stat, and it can pick the father to pass the x stat (where with a 5IVx6IV, it can only pick the x stat from the 5IV), thus breeding between 2 5IV pokemon with x in the same stat is STILL sub-optimal.
Thus, in general, it is always superior to breed with a 5IV and a 6IV pokemon over 2 5IV pokemon.
I'm not arguing your point, however with 5IV and 5IV your only outcome is the exact IV spread or 4 IV. With the 6IV and 5IV you could still get a 5IV, but not the target spread.
So if the chance of having 4IV is the same either way, not use the 5IV and 5IV and have your target spread instead of random 5IV spread?
Untrue. Using 5IVx5IV, you're just not going to get very many 5IV spitbacks (as often as your RNG spits out a perfect 31 IV for the random stat, which isn't very often), and you'll get a WHOLE lot of 4IV pokemon (way more than with a 5IVx6IV). And that's ONLY when you use 2 5IV pokemon with x in the same stat. I'd rather have the 5IV spitbacks myself.
But, everyone is entitled to breed their own way, and if you'd prefer breeding with 5IVx5IV, then that works for you, and I wish you luck with it. :)

Are you sure you want HA? Prankster is its regular ability, and Magician is HA.anyone have a spare HA Klefki? idc about ivs or nature.
No, HA Liepard is only available in the hidden grotto, and hidden grotto pokemon cannot be shiny.Is it possible to have a Shiny Liepard from Unova with Prankster in a Premier Ball?
Can you help me check my SV? Additionally, do you know how to find a Pokemon Emerald SID?Is it possible to have a Shiny Liepard from Unova with Prankster in a Premier Ball?

Okay. Depositing now. It will be a female level 30 Eevee.Hi, I can help you with the TSV. Deposit a pokemon in the GTS (tell me what it is) and ask for a male Bunnelby. I should have your TSV by tomorrow.
For the SID, you need to download a programme called PkHex and follow the instructions. I haven't gotten around to doing that yet.... Or you can use an action replay. Or PM .com
