RISING UP....BACK ON THE STREETS!
DID MY TIME, TOOK MY CHANCES!!

And now I'm imagining Sakura training to this music!

Sakura Leic · **Reply #7376 on:** June 19, 2014, 10:59:19 PM

Eh honestly she would probably train to Chrono Trigger or Tohou music to be honest.

I should take my mid-levels through the Grind Chateau while Eye of the Tiger plays.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #7378 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:06:55 PM

You totally should!!!

Quickman · **Reply #7379 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:12:22 PM

I also need to remember what type of Pokemon I have in my box. The other day, I was out hunting and came across an Absol with Pressure and was like "OMG I DON'T HAVE THAT" and caught both a male and a female.

I look in my box later and I already had five.

Super Luck is much more useful if you're not Mega Evolving, Pressure is better suited for a tank.

Who are you training right now anyways?

Quickman · **Reply #7382 on:** June 20, 2014, 02:06:04 AM

I have one Super Luck Absol I got through Wonder Trade, so I plan to breed it. The rest are Pressure Absols. Anyone want any? I have tons.

As for who I'm actively training, that'd be Mandrake the Zoroark, and Cagli's finishing her training. Still haven't quite figured Susan's moves yet, so she's leveling, along with Yellow Sign, who is a Berry Harvester and Fly slave. Shell-shocked Hypno's just leveling, and he's set to leave the team. I have a Timid Hypno and a Timid Drowzee lighting up the Love Shack as I try to max a Speed IV, and Mistofelees will rejoin the team once there's room.

I'm going to start training one of my Natus soon, and I have one picked out and named. Cassandra is Timid with Magic Bounce. I also have Magic Guard Karohalva the Abra to train. I'm going to start getting into some of the starters that I have, after I get some babies out of them.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #7383 on:** June 20, 2014, 02:07:25 AM

You can only max a Speed EV, IV's are set by birth.

Quickman · **Reply #7384 on:** June 20, 2014, 02:12:41 AM

Whatever, I'm maxing something related to speed. Got two Timids gettin' it on, something speedy better come out of that union.

Cool. Best of luck training. Right now I'm working on Epyon (Scizor), Gospel (Houndoom), and Ghidorah (Hydreigon)

Uh Hypnos are not fast even at max speed.

Quickman · **Reply #7387 on:** June 20, 2014, 02:22:11 AM

I know, but it's not stopping me from trying. CHALLENGE!

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #7388 on:** June 20, 2014, 04:19:01 AM

Speaking of Hypnos that sig of yours is haunting my nightmares.

Quickman · **Reply #7389 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:05:34 AM

Mwuahahaha...

I should bring back the twitchy Espurr...

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #7390 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:14:02 AM

Sure you laugh now but one day Blue is going to turn around and get dragged off into the darkness by an evil Hypno.

Twitchy Espurr, I remember that.

Quickman · **Reply #7391 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:16:18 AM

My Timid Drowzee thinks she's too good for my Timid Hypno. She needs to submit to his charms and make me some eggs. The alternative would be Timid Ditto sex. She should be happy with that Timid Hypno! He even got some training!

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #7392 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:21:31 AM

I won't lie pokemon breeding is well beyond me, I still have no idea what EV training is either.

Quickman · **Reply #7393 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:26:52 AM

I'm very, very slowly learning the breeding, but my knowledge is limited to Natures and Abilities, so I breed for those. Otherwise, I'm breeding to have trade fodder or breeding for shinies.

If the egg I have hatches into another Timid Drowzee (male, preferably), I may swap in the offspring. Though, my female is getting it on with one of her offspring already...

Pokemon husbandry is squicky. So much incest...

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #7394 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:31:24 AM

So how do natures work anyway? Do they effect stats, as for breeding I seem to remember offspring being able to inherit powers they normally could not?

Quickman · **Reply #7395 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:35:15 AM

Natures will boost one stat while lowering another, though some are neutral. My Mewtwo has a Serious Nature, but it's neutral. Some Natures hinder while others don't.

Sakura can tell you more. That's the extent of my knowledge. At least I'm slightly beyond the "yep, that's an engine" stage now.

Blue Valkyrie · **Reply #7396 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:36:45 AM

Fair enough, guess this is mostly for competitive play rather than single player?

Quickman · **Reply #7397 on:** June 20, 2014, 05:58:33 AM

Yeah. I'm a casual battler, but I'm experimenting.

And I caught the jumbo Pumpkaboo! It has a different cry! I named mine Huge Boo. Now I have Lil Boo, Pumpkaboo, Big Boo, and Huge Boo.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #7398 on:** June 20, 2014, 06:00:15 AM

Yeah the extensive breeding is more for competitive play than single play. Pokemon can also inherit the moves of parents, IVs, and certain abilities will appear more often if the parents have that ability than the other one they can get. You can also pass on Hidden Abilities as well if the parent has them with a 50% rate.

Natures can be passed down with a parent holding an Everstone while IVs can be passed down with the Destiny Knot as of this game.

It's pretty complicated but I pretty much know most of this stuff.

Quickman · **Reply #7399 on:** June 20, 2014, 06:13:57 AM

Heh, I didn't notice this until recently, but if you jump off a ledge, your active Amie Pokemon will jump, too.
