OK guys, so you have the following:

Lucario @ Lucarionite (Hasty, 252IV in Speed, 48IV Attack, 204 Sp.Atk)

Dark Pulse
Aura Sphere
Flash Cannon
Close Combat

Volcarona (Modest, 252 Sp.Atk/Speed)

Roost
Bug Buzz
Fiery Dance
Quiver Dance

Hydreigon @ Choice Scarf (Timid, 252 Sp.Atk/Speed)

Fire Blast
Dark Pulse
Focus Blast
Draco Meteor

1. Who should I fill in the other three spots for a balanced team?
2. If I want to have a Fire/Water/Grass core, who should I look at to compliment Volcarona in this team setup?

I can always do, I pretty much turned dream radar into a legendary factory.

Getting around to do that with MPR for a Mew factory. I also have the bonus disc for Coliseum so that's a Jirachi factory right there. But right now, it's only dream radar.

Interesting, how does dream radar work exactly? Amazing how you can get loads of them.

What is your FC?

Are you planning to use the team in wifi or with friends? With which rules you'll be playing?

HP, Atk, Def, Spd are the IV's. As soon as I saw it hatch I knew I wanted to run it and was just hoping it was max speed; turned out almost perfect so I'm stoked, not like smeargle is going to be acting as a special wall or anything.



Awesome, PM'd.

My Fc 4124-5002-7452 / ign Black Mamba.

Basically you make backups of your save at each junction (Tornadus transfer, etc) and just reload them each time with a new save of BW2. I have both games and use B2 to do it each time. Since it's pretty cheap I'll probably get a JP black 2 and black 1 to play whenever. Since I have NA White 1&2.

MPR works like this too since it's 1 Mew/Phione per MPR save and not per Diamond or Pearl cart. So basically for MPR you just deposit 999 pokes from Diamond and Pearl together, give Hayley her leafeon and generic egg, then withdraw pokes, wipe mpr save and repeat. The first time I did this was with only one cart, but since then I got another in Diamond.

The only reason why my Mew and Jirachi farms have stalled is the lack of Wii hdmi converter or VGA cable since I don't own a tv here in Japan but rather that benq monitor used for RTS, moba and fighting game tournaments.

Now for your dream radar legendaries do you want your ot name and trainer gender or do you want the ones I've farmed already in my Pokebank?

Edit: Also Dream Radar is going to make my W2 playthrough a lot of fun since I'm using the Sinnoh dragons, Johto duo, and Unova genies as my starters.

Poor Cheren has to fight that first haha.

Wow that seems complicated. If its not too much work you can put my OT: Andi and gender: Male or you can give the ones you already have, doesn't matter that much.

Just added you, my FC is 1607 3632 6772 / Andi

Edit: I should really learn how to RNG dream radar for perfect IVs, natures and shiny. Lol

Yeah thought we'd traded before, glad I didn't have to decide who to delete next. ;_; LOL You're welcome! Breeding Pichu's now. They seemed to go pretty quick so maybe I'll hold on to some more of the extras I come across before getting my shiny and offering again.

Good luck on Tailow! :)

Thanks! I gave up on it at one point, but getting the Shiny Charm made me want to give it another shot.

I'd be interested in the Pichu. I've never thought of running a Physical Pikachu.
Good luck on your Shiny Pichu!

Thank you. :) While waiting on someone to get online I'll breed a few Pichu and see if I can get you a good one.

I'm going to be running a physical Pikachu with a Light Ball. Never done so before, but I'm curious in it. While I've chosen Adamant which hurts SpAtk, thinking of trying to run with a 6IV one to see if it's SpAtk gains are still decent enough I can toss maybe a SpAtk something on it ... if I last long enough anyway though. (Since Lightning Rod helps increase SpAtk, though doing it so electric attacks are pointless more than worrying about Static.) Tempted after I get my shiny to breed a quick Modest one with Lightning Rod to see how it compares.

Shiny charm hasn't made MMing any easier for me, but I do like it for the few random shinies I've found in wild. :)

Edit: Son of a... I just realized in all this somewhere along the way Volt Tackle got knocked outta the move list. Fuuuuuudge. Whole reason I was breeding an Adamant Pichu. Hm seems a parent always has to have it on? So passing on IVs or a specific nature has to go. What a pain in the ass.

That's be great thanks!
It's unfortunate about Volt Tackle though. :(
I don't know about Adamant Pikachu having special moves though, I'd rather go all out Physical if that were the case. It's hard enough getting a 6 IV Pokemon.

I won't let that discourage me, I'm in too deep now to give up! I'll be looking forward to more Horde EV training though. :)

I actually have a few 6IV Pichu right now. Will give them away when I'm done with breeding them though. Idea is that it's a glass canon, but was thinking of tossing one special move like Grass Knot or something for a change up. But right now just getting one with Volt Tackle + good IVs + right nature = stupid. Not sure how well this is going to work. >< Thinking I may have to pray to IV gods, because I need the nature and I need one to hold the Light Ball.

Edit: Hypno, I've got a 5 IV one (31/31/31/31/X/31) that you can have to breed with. Tried trading with you but no luck. Will put it on side for ya.

Do Inverse battles really have no 4x, Quarter damage or immunities?

Edit: Never mind, I see its only single types and no combos. Still, no immunities is interesting.

Last night I was in a 11 game win streak (Togekiss, Greninja, Venusaur) till I faced a spamming Talonflame.

The guy basically spammed Brave Bird from beggining to end.

2HKO Togekiss.
1HKO Greninja.
1HKO Mega Venusaur.

Talonflame died after the last hit, but who cares, right?

Now I know why people hate Talonflame and Brave Bird spammers. Ridiculous.
