Great IVs you've gotten recently

[Utack and Swampy]

I don't know them all, but I just found out my Swampy can't be better in terms of attack stat, and my Shedinja can't be better in terms of it's speed stat.

Yay Battle Tower Potential Judging guy!

[Ferox]

I can't do IV's yet but by chance I bred my fraligatr and sceptile, got a treecko with 31 defence. Kinda cool... for me...

[Afro-Disiak]

Timid Nature
Ability: Flame Body
31 / 25 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31

I can RNG in Black now lol

[Bakura]

The last Pokemon I got was on Oct. 6, but I barely checked the IVs right now and I think they are "Good" enough.

Absol {Jolly}

27/20/17,18/31/30/31

How lucky. I wasn't even trying to get one with good IVs, although the Atk could have been higher.

[Afro-Disiak]

Went back to Platinum to do some breeding:

5th Gen Storm Drain is sexy

[Enigma]

They're so awesome..

On the Ludicolo though - why HP Fire? Typically, the 'best' special sweeper Ludicolo doesn't fear anything that is weak against Fire. And in Rain, Surf will be outdamaging it every time, and anything that resists it can be brought down by STAB Grass, Ice Beam or Focus Blast. And in having the HP Fire, you're losing 1SPEED OMG.

That Beautifly is beautiful though.

Also, lol with getting two Gastrodon - does their colour depend on where you hatch them in Sinnoh? Or is it random? And what about in HGSS? I wonder how that's done..

[Afro-Disiak]

Ok questions:

Ludi has HP Fire because it's a parent for Eggy. I want Exeggutor to have HP Fire.

Gastrodon is awesome, don't hate. Storm Drain in 5th gen gives an immunity to water AND a +1 SAtk boost. The colour is determined by the female parent. In HGSS, you can only get Pink one. I don't know why, but if you want the Blue one you need to breed it on DPPt.

Oh...so what will you do with Ludi...? I could give it a good home? =D

What, so the gender defines colouring on BW? And is a +1 Satk boost going to give it all that much? =S I mean, yeah, 92 base is decent, but it's hindered by that rubbish speed..what set will you go for?

[Afro-Disiak]

Oh...so what will you do with Ludi...? I could give it a good home? =D

He will hopefully be Pokeshifted to my Black in the near future, once I find someone with a Japanese 4th gen game to help with the process. After he has had his sexy time with eggs, he will sit in my box forever more, contemplating what could have been had his speed IV been 1 more.

I don't know where you got colour = gender from.. but yeah Gastrodon is still pretty bulky, about 90% as physically defensive, and 98% as specially defensive as Swampert and with Recover/Stockpile I'm sure he can cause some havoc. Probably a set like Surf/Ice Beam/Earth Power/Recover on the Modest one, and Boil Over/Earth Power/Stockpile/Recover on the Bold one.


Timid Nature (F)
Ability: Flame Body
29 / 9 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 30
Hidden Power Ice 68

29/9/7/x/7/30 is my spread, so potentially some decent things to come from it. This Ulgamoth is another step towards my HP Rock one.

Two more to transfer to Black:

Timid Nature
Ability: Lightning Rod
31 / 28 / 31 / 30 / 31 / 31
Hidden Power Grass 70

Timid Nature
Ability: Lightning Rod
31 / 8 / 30 / 31 / 31 / 31
Hidden Power Ice 70

[Sino Morior]

Yanmega:
19/7/21/30/30/31 Modest Tinted Lens HP Ground 67
31/9/7/30/22/31 Modest Tinted Lens HP Ground 68
21/29/31/30/30/31 Modest Tinted Lens HP Ground 68

31/4/14/30/31/31 Modest Tinted Lens HP Water 68

All are still in eggs. Pretty cool stuff.

[Bakura]

Tried IV breeding a Weavile and it seems this is the best I'll be getting

Weavile {Jolly}

23/31/29/7-8/25-26/30

Not too bad, I suppose....

[Afro-Disiak]

Really nice, you're not really losing out on much with that one speed IV off perfection - the only other pokemon in Weavile's base speed group are Swellow (Ice Shard), and Darkrai. You can still outspeed base 120s such as Alakazam, Dugtrio and Sceptile so overally nice breed!

edit: guess it's about time I got trolled by my game...


Quiet Nature
Ability: Telepathy
31 / 31 / 31 / 0 / 31 / 0
Nasty Plot

Not exactly what I was looking for (Quiet nature with Synchronize...)

Calm Nature
Ability: Telepathy
31 / 19 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 0

[Concisus Somnium]

Baltoy:
31/22/29/26/31/31 Bold (HP Grass 67)
31/30/28/31/28/31 Bold (HP Bug 47)
31/28/31/28/31/17 Bold (HP Grass 53)
31/20/31/31/31/19 Calm (HP Dragon 68)

Still going, though I boxed both.
Oh, and this poor, poor soul...
31/12/31/31/31/31 Relaxed

Low attack with great IVs and a mixed nature.


How important is Speed for a Claydol?

[Afro-Disiak]

Speed isn't necessary, but 75 base isn't that bad and having a decent IV should help you outspeed slower defensive threats such as Skarmory, Swampert, Vaporeon, etc.

Today's (so far) breeds, any more ideas for TR mon (from 5th gen)?



Relaxed Nature
Ability: Steel Thorns
31 / 31 / 31 / 0 / 31 / 0
Leech Seed


Brave Nature
Ability: Sturdy
31 / 31 / 31 / 0 / 31 / 0

Meh. Still not satisfied...
