What's the exact chance to roll a 5IV (with Att/SpA random) legendary again?
My statistical equations have been rusty.

Odds that the 3 guaranteed IVs don't fall in a specific stat: (5 choose 3) / (6 choose 3) = 1/2.
Odds that a specific two of the other 3 IVs are 31: 1/32 * 1/32 = 1/1024.
Combined: 1/2 * 1/1024 = 1/2048.
If one of the guaranteed IVs does fall in the stat you don't care about, then you need all 3 of the other ones to be 31 (so a 6IV spread):
1/2 for the IV.
1/32 * 1/32 * 1/32 = 1/32768.
Combined: 1/2 * 1/32768 = 1/65536.
Since the two above are mutually exclusive, add them together for the final odds:
1/2048 + 1/65536 =

Obviously there's then Nature, and anything else to worry about (Pokémon KOing itself, you running out of balls before catching it, PP running out, etc.).
Edit: For future reference, I made THIS app a while back to calculate this sort of thing for people... It's far from optimised, and not the nicest UI... But it'll give you the numbers you want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
If you're using this on a Mac, you'll probably need to google something along the lines of "mac jar XstartOnFirstThread" to work out how to launch it...

Does anyone want Blue Flabebes in dive balls(50+),White Flabebes in Premier Balls(15), Litwicks in Nest Balls(7), Deinos in Luxury Balls(4) or Pinecos in Level Balls(8) ? All are female, some have EM and most have at least 1 Perfect IV. Pls hit me up quick since I want to wonder trade them away in like 3 hours
oh yes man, it will most definitely help a lot and speed up my breeding process lol, what would you like in excahnge for it?
Nothing in particular. Just stick something up on the GTS asking for a Ditto Lv 51-60 and set the Message to LegoFigure11, and let me know what you deposited!
Hi I have a perfect iv fire hp bulasaur which I want to ev train, but the thing is that I don't really know how to do it, as I'm not experienced in competitive training/battling (actually, this bulbasaur is gonna be part of my first competitive team), so I was wondering if someone would ev train it to lvl 50 for me, if it is possible.
I would like this evs:
I would like this evs:
- 112 HP
- 252 SpA
- 144 Spe
I suggest looking at this guide for doing intervals of 50 and 252 spreads: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/a-guide-to-ev-training-with-hordes.3490052/
Then use Super Training the rest of specialized spreads.

Nothing really. The only difference is that you dont get EVs with rare candy while leveling and every EV gained before a rare candy is still on the poke after a rare candy.
done, sent you a pm, thanks a lot dude :)
Don't forget Perilous Soup in XY, which is significantly easier than either reset bags or EV berries.
LF a Modest 31/X/31/31/31/31 Latios. There are lots of Timid ones on the site, but I've seen no Modest ones, and I want that for a Trick Scarf set(Scarf Latios really doesn't need much Spe at all, I think Timid would be a waste. Even just neutral 36 Spe EVs outspeeds Gengar with Scarf and max 70s without.)
CMT for something in return. I can also do breeding projects. Really want this thing:(

Does it need to be pentagon?
Yes...and u asking means yours must not be:( Unless you have like one that's Penta and one that's not(plz b the case.) Either way thx for showing interest:) This team is actually doing quite well on PS, but that's sorta moot if I can't actually have it lol.
if you're not doing any official tournament and just want to make a team, then it is better to ask for a RNG legendary . You will get much offers .
Well, I'd be playing Battle Spot on cart, so I need the Penta. Can't complain that they require it either, cuz I don't want to see Sheerf Force Landorus ever again lol.
Actually, Reset Bag could be easier, although this is still anecdotal. I got a lot of it when breeding by repeatedly punching the empty bag and someone else got it that way too, it was briefly talked about in maison thread. Apparently the chances to get it rises when the one active in core training is fully trained and is excited.
Anyone have a spitback Calm HA female Alomomola or Careful Fletchling? Doesn't need to be flawless since I have good parents for both (the fletch's gender also doesn't matter)
EDIT: Also, planning on SRing a Diancie event on my OR cart (mostly so I can get my Eon Ticket and Hoopa) and was wondering if SRing for HP Fire was worth it? Even if I'm unsure if I'd ever use HP Fire?

Depends on what set you're running, most Mega Diancie sets use HP Fire. If you don't want to SR for that there are a few users who have a HP Fire Diancie in their trade threads that you could trade for. Also, you don't have to SR for that right away if you want to pick up the Eon Ticket and Hoopa first you can just change the order of your wonder cards in the mystery gift section.
not the eon ticket you cant, it doesnt show up on wondercards and so stays with the delivery girl until you collect/SR all poke she is holding
