So if I KO Thundurus I can beat the E4 and it will be reset, right?

Sweet.
Btw how's my Tornadus coming? >.>
For the roamers, are natures set when you first encounter them, or when the game begins?
If it's when you first meet them, I recommend you farm some Synchronize Pokemon, Wiseblade. It'll make your life a lot easier. Elygyem is the easiest, at the top of Celestial Tower.

I've got a timid thundurus is that good? you know maybe i should just check it's base stats on a site lol.
GOD FUCKING DAMN! Metang is HARD to catch. I mean, you first have to spend about twenty minutes shuffling about before one shows up. Then he has the gall to show up with a Clefairy (so a Quick Ball is out of a question). Then he's on 1HP and asleep and he still busts out of Ultra Balls, Dusk Balls, Timer Balls and, as far as I can tell, Metang-On-1HP-And-Asleep Balls.
I'm seriously considering using my Master Ball on this stupid fucking thing.

Stick with it! It takes ages but it can definitely be done.

Yeah, Timid is what you really want, although he has enough power (115) to use his attack stat too. That 111 base speed is so trollish though, so it's critical to have max speed.
125 base Special Attack, Mischievous Heart and Nasty Plot. Jesus.
Seriously, get someone to trade you a Beldum and save your Master Ball.Mr. Sam said:
Metang's family has the lowest catch rate in the series for some reason, I think it's because Gamefreak likes to troll with that Pokemon. In DPP you could only catch wild Beldum in a place that has a permanent sandstorm (So unless you have the right Pokemon, you are losing health every turn) and it only knows Take Down, so it will eventually kill itself, and then in HGSS they put it in the Safari Zone which is basically like asking you to catch a Mewtwo in a Great Ball when you can't attack it at all and it can run away.

Hey, can one of you super sexy people here up in PokeGAF do me a favour and help me evolve my Gurdurr? Kinda fed up looking at its ugly face. My FC is on the Google Doc in the OP, under my username, just PM me with your FC if you fancy helping a Pokebrother out. Cheers!
Does he know Take Down because I remember trying to catch Beldum in Diamond and I could never catch him because he would always end up killing himself. I literally spent an entire afternoon before I finally caught him.Mr. Sam said:
EDIT: lolz beaten by a long shot. I should read to the end of the thread before posting
I don't know if it's me but getting pokemon in the red is much harder to catch. I've had to reset many times because they just won't get caught/I accadently killed em. But when I get them in yellow 2-3 ultras/dusk balls seem to do the trick. Is this a new mechanic or am I just lucky.
As far as I'm concerned, any Pokemon that isn't healing itself, killing itself, being killed by weather, running away, or doing significant damage to me, is easy to catch. It doesn't really matter if it takes a while. I don't mind pelting it with Dusk Balls for ten minutes. I think there's only one legendary in Black/White that heals itself and it did get on my nerves. The one roaming legendary was easy prey for my Master Ball. 
One of the worst parts of not being able to transfer items is the stock of Masterballs I have in 4th Generation (around 15 right now, I believe). I've had them from multiple playthroughs from 3rd and 4th Generation titles, and it makes catching legendaries while soft resetting for IVs/natures so much easier. Well, before RNG, but it still helps.

If I level all of my Pokemon to 60 for the E4 will they be way over-leveled? I really want a Volcarona to replace my shitty Unfezant.
My copy of Pokemon Black arrived yesterday. I got to Victini earlier today and the first one I captured (only used like two Great Balls) was Timid. I wanted a -Atk, +Speed so I reseted.
...turns out Timid WAS -Atk, +Spd (I mixed it up with Jolly, which is -SpAtk, + Speed) and after 10 resets I can't get another Timid Victini. :/

It'll randomly be one of twenty five natures.. so the odds are not exactly great. If you can wait, you can pickup some Synchronize Pokemon later that'll make it 50/50 chance of being the nature of the Synchronize Pokemon. That'll help, and then you can reset for IVs too.
Remember, if you don't know natures by heart, you can look at stats in game and see what the positive (red) stat is and the negative (blue) stat is.

A little yeah. Around level 46-52 is ideal for a somewhat challenging Elite 4.

I didn't want to change my network to WEP either so I'm using the internet sharing feature in OS X to create a temporary WEP network whenever I want to trade/GTS etc:

Is there anything similar out there for our Windows Pokemon Masters GAF?

Does Synchronize work on roamers?

Sorry guys...not new to Pokemon but new to Black/White.
Two questions.
i) Is their ANY syncrhonization that goes on between Pearl/Diamond and Black/White?
example - can I bring my PD pokemon into BW?
ii) C gear. Is there ANY reason to have it on while just playing it at home? I understand it can be used to download more Nintendo "gifts" and go to..."dreamland'? (can't remember the proper term) I know you use it to trade pokemon via infrared and online.
...but besides that, am I missing out on something if I have it off during regular play/grinding?

Yeah, the first thing I did with Tornadus was kill it, beat the E4 and chase it with a timid syncronize Ralts leading. I caught it, saw that it didn't have the right nature and SR. Caught it again, it had the same nature. So I noted down its stats and SR again. Caught it the third time with the same nature and stats. It only resets when you kill it and beat the E4.

I'm reeeeeally thinking of getting a 3DS mainly to go online with Pokémon again. Haven't been able to since we switched to Sky Broadband (for the no download limits) and they gave us a router which we now use WPA. I really want to be able to trade and battle and use the dream world and entralink stuff. Would be nice to go online with my other games too.
Anyway, WOW at the E4 and ending stuff. So cool.
