Darkblader that's a good catch, HP isn't the biggest deal and everything else is great.

Gen 6 The "Are my Pokémon IVs and Nature good?" Thread
- Thread starter Theorymon
- Start date
Padomay Vi Vanille, Alert to Sounds : Thanks guys, I decided to keep it. Oh, and thanks Alert to Sounds for your advice a couple pages back as well.
Just got a timid 20/27/27/31/31/31 Xerneas via GTS. For timid i guess the only real set option is Scarf.
Thoughts?

What is a good set for a 31/31/31/31/31/31 Sceptile with HA and Adamant Nature.
This thread is for Ubers.
But use a consumable item to boost your speed due to unburden, and then just attack? Flying/Grass gem would be ideal but they are not on 6th Gen. 252atk 252spd 6hp; Swords Dance, Leaf Blade, Earthquake, Rock Slide / Acrobatics / Thunderpunch?
Edit: Or maybe use substitute with the liechi lerry? Hide behind the Sub and when the berry is consumed you get an attack boost and the speed boost from unburden.

Thanks. Any other place to post this? I'm new here.
The Overused forum (Simple Questions Simple Answers thread) is probably the correct place.
I would reset.
What would be the ideal aimed nature / IVs?
Me personally? Imo you can't go wrong with either of the four natures (Adamant, Jolly, Careful, Impish) and for the IVs I would like to see the speed IVs 31 and all the other IVs (besides special attack) to have 26/27+
But that's just me. Others might think Impish is a waste of an Nature on Zygarde, or that having 22 IVs in a certain stats is fine.

Keep hidden power isn't required. Focus blast is a better coverage move imo
Tyranitar and almost every other Fairy type won't be taking a +2 Moonblast with Fairy Aura.
Why are you even thinking of reseting? ;-;
At level 50 (stat wise) that Xerneas is basically perfect if you don't give the "leftover EV" to special defense.

Dude you didn't need to make an OU thread just for this if you've posted here already... :/
Anyways, I'd first check the speed stat, and make sure it's a 31 and not a 30, and if it's a 31, keep it. If not, dump it.
I'm planning on transferring a Bold-natured Volcarona with Giga Drain to my Y file when Pokebank finally releases to the States. It has the following IVs:
28 / 29 / 31 / 31 / 28 / 31
Are these ok? I wish it had just a little more HP (and the high Attack IV isn't doing anything for it) but does it get KO'd by anything with those IVs that wouldn't already KO it? And if I keep it, how many HP EVs should I give it to have a proper Stealth Rock number at level 50 and 100?
28 / 29 / 31 / 31 / 28 / 31

Can I do anything with a Lonely Xerneas? I know its not as great as a Modest one and prefers special attack, but I don't know anyone who'd offer me a replacement, I'm gonna be stuck with it for a while.. What EVs should I invest in and what moveset can I use?
BurningSnake TBH I don't think Lonely is useful for Xerneas at all. There are mixed sets that run -Def/SpD natures, but they inevitably want a +SpA/Spe boost over Atk.
bookwyrm Volcarona isn't good in Ubers, but for use elsewhere I'd try to breed a flawless one. There's really no reason not to have perfect IVs on a breedable mon.

Yveltal:
Caught @ level 50 after resetting for hours on my Y verson. Traded over to my X to confirm it's 31 IV's, hoping that all 4 of the 30-31 stats were perfect IV's but unfortunately not. Nature is Hasty.
HP: 31
Attack: 31
Defense: 29
Sp. Att: 31
Sp. Def: 20
Speed: 30
I've been combing through the Yveltal thread in this Uber forum. Looking like I should go with a mixed attacker? Possibly use Assault Vest? Really stuck on which moveset I should go with. Thoughts?
