Sorry your having a bad day..

The complex stat point training isn't necessary just to get through the game, it is really only for people who want to be a hardcore complex battler with other hardcore complex battlers. Unless you want to be a competitive battler with other humans you don't really need to use that element of the game. Just go back to training your pokemon like always (just note that rare candies aren't exactly bad this time around!)

Training pokemon is crucial, but you don't have to be obsessive about it to finish the game. Yes training a pokemon will make it stronger than one that is caught in the wild, a lot stronger. You can technically get the same result if you train starting at level 50 as you can if you train starting at level 1, its just if you start at level 1 you progress more naturally through it.
 
[quote name='Mex25']Wow that's one of hell of a list. Could I trouble you for a slugma and burmy?[/quote] Sure! What kind of Bumy did you want? (Sand, Garbage, or Forest?). Just send me a PM whenever you want to trade.
[quote name='sixersballernum3']For the record, if you could possibly not hatch some of your Pokemon, that'd be great, only because some folks like me like to be the OT so they obey. But still, great work, and I might trouble you for Slugma and Burmy later.[/quote] Well I had a lot of people complaining how it takes forever for eggs to hatch, so I went ahead and did it myself. ^_^; Also, it's kind of hard to keep track of which egg is which when you're breeding so many at once. If you'd like an egg of any of the ones I listed I can breed one for you, just ask. :) I can breed you a slugma and burmy egg if you prefer just let me know.
[quote name='FallMoon']Could you tell us some of the natures of these pokemon?[/quote] Lemme go check the ones you asked for and I'll let you know. =)
 
[quote name='nekobi']Sure! What kind of Bumy did you want? (Sand, Garbage, or Forest?).[/QUOTE]
Holy, you have all skins of burmy. I really need a macho brace... Do you have any extras I could borrow? I have a bunch of the leaf ones... I got some eevees I could give u, i could also breed a squirtle and charmander for you.

That's cool- I'm not attacking you, that was very nice of you to do.

The Slugma and Burmy would just be for Slugma's ability to halve egg hatching time and Burmy for apparantly getting Macho Brace? So no breeding would be encessary as I won't be using them. :p.

I'll let you know if/when I'd be interested, as right now I'm not far enough to need or want either, and people who need 'em now should take the first crack at it.
 
Nekobi, I would highly recommend starting an egg marking system to identify pokemon in eggs. it made life a lot easier when I was distributing Kanto starters like candy and throwing in other things like porygon
 
One question guys. Say I trade a pokemon to someone else, and they trade it back. That pokemon won't benefit from increased exp because I'm on its OT tag, right? Btw, do pokemon lose EVs when traded?

I would *love* a Charmander and Squirtle egg, been trying to get those for a while now. =)
[quote name='Trakan']If you have an adamant Chimchar/Turtwig, I'm definitely interested.[/quote] For those of you who asked about the Chimchar/Turtwig natures, I have:

Turtwig: all male =(
naughty
relaxed
gentle
bold
adamant
hasty
calm
naive
sassy
serious
quirky
calm x2

Chimchar: all male also o_0
hardy x2
lonely
naive
mild
adamant
[quote name='Yertle']Nekobi, I would highly recommend starting an egg marking system to identify pokemon in eggs. it made life a lot easier when I was distributing Kanto starters like candy and throwing in other things like porygon[/quote] You mean with the symbols you can mark them with?

Man we're getting hit with some bad thunderstorms right now (Omaha, NE) so if I suddenly am gone, my power went out. :x
 
If I breed 2 pokemon with the same nature does that increase my chances of having eggs with that nature or doesn't that mater?
 
uh oh, fight over the adamant turtwig. BTW, is adamant the best nature for it? I would think a neutral nature would be more fitting. Most of it's basic moveset as it evolves are special attack.

edit: ^ well, the nature is random. However if you have a special item and give it to the mother, it'll retain the nature of the mother. I forgot the name of the item tho, sry.
 
I'm waiting in the trading place for you Nekobi. Trakan, do you want the chimchar or turtwig more? I only want the turtwig, but you seem fine with either one.
 
Okay, finally got all of you added to my palpad. For those who requested trades, I will get to all of you but just be a bit patient, I'll have to restock after each trade. =)
So far I have:

Mex - Slugma, Burmy
halu102 - 2 Burmy
TheUnsane1 - Eevee, Slugma, Cranados
Lan_Zer0 - Slugma, Phione
Traktan - Chimchar, Turtwig?
Fallmoon - Turtwig? Mr. Mime

I'll be on in a sec with the Burmys for halu first since mex seems offline?

Exactly, here's a sample of my marking system:
  • (circle) Squirtle
  • (square) Larvitar
  • (star) Ralts
  • (diamond) Porygon
  • (heart) Feebas
  • (triangle) Bulbasaur
  • (circle)(triangle)Charmander
  • (circle)(square)Torchic
  • (circle)(heart)Treeko
  • (circle)(star)Mudkip
I expand it as it becomes necessary, if it seems a little arbitrary. It does allow me to keep copius amounts of eggs in my pc while knowing exactly what they are though.

The weather isn't much better here over in Williamsburg, VA. Though less thunder, more rain
 
[quote name='FallMoon']Trakan can have the turtwig.[/quote]
Did you want another Turtwig maybe? Sorry I don't have 2. =( Or any of the Chimchars?
 
Thanx for the Trade. Enjoy your Ice Punching Sneasils I set you up with the guys to make :). Oh sweet it was a female Eevee I didn't even notice thanx alot!!
 
[quote name='Trakan']Lame, it's not letting us trade. I even tried resetting my router, but I guess it didn't help.[/quote] Keeps saying 'failed to respond'....hmm =(

edit: seems to be working now!
 
[quote name='Trakan']Lame, it's not letting us trade. I even tried resetting my router, but I guess it didn't help.[/quote]

I take that back, it finally worked. Thanks nekobi!

Yeah, no prob. =) I figured you'd rather have a female and I had a couple. ^_^ Thanks for trading!

Hey Fallmoon, did you still want the Mr. Mime? I have it here for you if you want. =) Or anything else you wanted?
 
[quote name='FallMoon']I guess I still want that, sure. As long as it's a guy.[/quote]
I'm in the room whenever you're ready. =)
 
Thanks Fallmoon and Nekobi for the trades, brings me closer to world domina.... I mean...
Anyways, I got a bunch of pokemon to give away. Here's the list:

Pokemon xCount (M:F)
Eevee x13 (12:1) (got an extra eevee that's careful nature, perfect for evolving into umbreon)
Charmander x3 (3:0)
Turtwig x2 (2:0)
Slugma x4 (3:1)
Drifloon x4 (0:4)
Tyrogue x1 (1:0) (evolves into hitmon-(insert suffix))
Carnivine x1 (0:1)
Burmy x2 (0:2) (Only leaf Skin available)
Murkrow x1 (0:1)
Croagunk x1 (1:0)

I'll also breed some of the other pokemon I have if anyone is interested.

So far all I'm looking for right now is Mightyena/Poochyena and Spiritomb. But I'm still willing to give away these pokemon for Magikraps.
 
Yertle, what's your team? Like, tell me the EVs, natures, moves, etc. You seem like one of the few people that pays attention to all of that stuff.
 
[quote name='halu102']Hey indigo, missing drifloon? I got a bunch, because I'm breeding. I can just trade you one right now of wifi.[/quote]

I'm not in a hotspot :cry:

If I could get a Charmander and Eevee, that'd be fantastic!

Also, does anyone have any Elekids I could get?
 
Nekobi, could I get one of each burmy? I'll give them back, I just need the macho brace.... And if anyone can spare a female eevee, I'm looking for one of those as well.
 
[quote name='Moxio']If I could get a Charmander and Eevee, that'd be fantastic!

I'm in the middle of breeding a ton of elekids right now to get the right nature of Electivire I want. I've already done the hard part of breeding Cross-Chop and Ice Punch onto it now it's just a matter of hatching. I'll have plenty of elekid junkemons at the end of all that if you can wait until then.

Excellent Sign me up for that! I'll throw you an icepunching sneasil.
If anyone wants to trade for sneasils I have the following: M:Timid x2, F:Modest, F:Jolly, M:Brave, M:Calm
 
Can I make a suggestion? Can you put serebii.net and the other pokemon site that is good in the OP? Just for breeding help and pokedex info.
 
[quote name='FallMoon']Yertle, what's your team? Like, tell me the EVs, natures, moves, etc. You seem like one of the few people that pays attention to all of that stuff.[/quote] Right now I'm very much in the planning stages for my actual team. This is probably going to end up being especially prolonged because there's so much stuff I want to train so I might just train them all and make a very fluid team. Everything you battled has pretty much been dumped, that was my in-game team whose only purpose was to get me to the post-game and fast. Right now I have two trained, and I just hatched the perfect Elekid, so I have three preliminary.

Gallade(Meursault)/Jolly Nature (Speed Up, SpA Down)
Salac Berry
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 6 HP
Leaf Blade
Psycho Cutter
Close Combat
Sword's Dance/Night Slash

Your standard physical sweeper, i'm not sure if Swords Dance or Night Slash would be better. The only problem I see with Swords Dance is the fact I'm not 100% sure that Gallede has the defense stats to be able to survive using it. i went with Jolly nature because I feel his attack is very good, but his speed is a bit more midling and I want him to be able to sweep a bit more effectively

Froslass(Polar Lass)/Hasty Nature (Speed Up, SpD Down)
Choice Specs
EVs: 252 Speed, 128 Attack, 128 SpA
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball
Confuse Ray
Ice Shard/Will-o-wisp/Thunderwave/Hail

Basically the goal here is an anti-Salamence/Garchomp/Flygon/Dragonite pokemon, with a maxed out speed that should make it faster than any of those dragons with unaltered stats. I currently have Ice Shard on Froslass in the event that I have to come in on a dragon danced/agilitied dragon where hopefully the STAB along with all the dragons generally having lower defenses would make the difference. I might replace it with one of the other moves i listed.

Electivire/Naugty Nature (Attack Up, SpD Down)
EVs: 252 Attack, 128 HP, 128 Defense
Ice Punch
Cross-Chop
Earthquake
Thunderbolt

Thunderbolt is my twist here so that Electivire can OHKO Skarmory through Skarmory's significantly weaker SpD stat. SpD is probably the stat Electivire needs least anyways since there aren't going to be too many pokemon using the special-based ground moves

There's still a lot more I'm considering but it's at a more nebulous stage still

If anyone wants to trade for sneasils I have the following: M:Timid x2, F:Modest, F:Jolly, M:Brave, M:Calm[/quote] I'm interested in one of your male Sneasils, I can make my own natured one while using him as the ice punch transferral. I just finished breeding my elekids so I have a gazillion of them. All of which have Cross-Chop and Ice Punch.
I have the following (m:f):
Timid (2:0)
Sassy (0:1)
Mild (3:0)
Quiet (2:0)
Relaxed (0:2)
Hardy (2:0)
Bashful (1:1)
Modest (1:0) spoken for
Jolly (2:0)
Careful (2:0)
Brave (2:0)
Naive (1:0)
Rash (1:0)
Bold (2:0)
Adamant (1:1)
Lonely (2:0)
Serious (1:0)
Eggs 2x

yes, that 32 29 total right here, and have made 33 total if you count the male naughty one I myself will be training
 
Yosh! Finally, I've beaten all 8 gym leaders. Now I think I'm going to quickly blaze through the E4 and then settle down and start breeding/leveling.
 
Yertle, even though I have one already, I'm realizing it's missing Ice Punch that it badly needs, and it has the wrong nature.

Could I get the adamant one?
 
[quote name='Trakan']Yertle, even though I have one already, I'm realizing it's missing Ice Punch that it badly needs, and it has the wrong nature.

Sure, do you want the male or female one?
 
[quote name='Yertle']Sure, do you want the male or female one?[/quote]

Either one is good, whichever you'd like.
 
Okay, Trakan, you're getting the female since Mox wanted the male. For those three I'm trading with, I'll be getting on the wifi in a sec
 
[quote name='Kendal']Can I make a suggestion? Can you put serebii.net and the other pokemon site that is good in the OP? Just for breeding help and pokedex info.[/quote]

I keep getting the idea of doing that but I always keep putting it off. I will do it now though! I will put links to online stuff in this thread and other appropriate stuff in the other thread.
