Hi all
Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts. -

Try this if you don't want to re-breed.
Dusknoir (Impish) @Leftovers
-Rest
-Sleep Talk
-Brick Break
-Any Elemental Punch
Since you don't want to re-breed for Pain Split, Rest is your best recovery move. Add Sleep Talk and you have a status absover / Sleep Talker. Brick Break to take care of steels and Tyranitar / Weavile. Elemental Punches for coverage ( choose the one you think that helps you more).
ON TOPIC:
Hey guys, is this Gardevoir any good?
Gardevoir ( Timid )@Leftovers ( I was trying to get a Modest one, but this one had awesome IV's.)
252 HP / 80 Sp. Atk / 176 Sp. Def
-Will-O-Wisp
-Wish
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball / Focus Blast
I'm inclined to use Shadow Ball because gets some needed coverage for me, but I'm not sure. Help with the EV spread is also appreciated ^_^
EDIT: I forgot to ask, could you guys take a look at this Gallade as well:
Gallade ( Adamant )@Life Orb
-252 Atk / 252 Spd
-Psycho Cut
-Close Combat
-Night Slash
-Swords Dance / Will-O-Wisp
Don't know which move for the last slot. Swords Dance is very handy sometimes, but a status move is also nice. So, could you give me your opinions? Thanks.

You could go to the underground and get a heart scale then go to Pastoria City and talk to the move re-learner guy.
Ancient Power is a very bad move on that set. Reflect / Light Screen / whatever you didn't use in the 4th slot are also options.
I don't quite understand what exactly you're trying to accomplish with that Gardevoir set. Stalling? Burn Support? Please be a little clearer.
I would just suggest using Swords Dance, because otherwise Gallade would just be a Sweeper with a random Status move thrown onto it. If you do use Swords Dance, use Ice Punch over Night Slash. Psycho Cut isn't a must on that set, by the way. Stone Edge is an option, as is the removed Night Slash. However, Choice Band Gallade is also a force to be reckoned with.
Gallade @ Choice Band
Adamant
4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
~ Close Combat
~ Ice Punch
~ Psycho Cut
~ Night Slash / X-Scissor / Shadow Sneak
If you can't get Ice Punch, just use something from the fourth slot.

^Yeah, I can't get Ice Punch. And I already have a choice banded pokemon on my team =/. Night Slash + Close Combat gets pretty good coverage and Psycho Cut is an alternative STAB. I was considering WoW because, unlike some other physical sweepers, Gallade has some "bulk" and can cripple opposing physical threats with status moves. But I'm ok with Swords Dance.
Gardevoir set is for Support. Wish pass to my pokemons ( and is Gardevoir form of healing ) and WoW the physical attackers, which are a threat to Gardevoir ( special sweepers not that much, since she has a huge SDef stat). The attacks are there so she can defend herself. And before anyone says, I'm not using her on an offensive role. So, don't suggest Specs or stuff like that. Thanks

So Cool
If this isn't the right thread I'm sorry but someone please help me. I've EV trained my Chimchar about 7 times and each time the woman tells me that he needs to work harder. I know I'm counting correctly I just don't know the exact amount of EVs he should be getting. So someone please help me.

Can someone recommend what to do with a Rash Oddish with no egg moves? I know it's not the best nature, but it hatched shiny, so by God, I'm using it. I'd like to evolve it into a Bellossom and use it as a statuser, but I don't know what the EVs and other moves should be.
Well, if you're wanting a status Bellossom...
Bellossom (Rash Nature, since that's what you have) @Leftovers
-Energy Ball/Leaf Storm
-Stun Spore
-Sleep Powder
-Sludge Bomb
I listed Sludge Bomb as another means of offense. You could put a support move like Safeguard instead... but Sludge Bomb could be more useful to hit more foes.

Is this a good set for the Battle Tower? This is my new awesome lead, but wanted some critism:
Togekiss @ Modest
Serene Grace @ Quick Claw (to pull off a Thunderwave)
252 SpA/252 SpD/6 HP
~Thunderwave
~Nasty Plot
~Air Slash
~Aura Sphere
I'm not exactly sure on the EV's, as I got it in a trade, but I will post them later...

^I don't really know much about Leafeon, so sorry I cant help^
Which is a better option as an Ice attack on a Weavile for Battle Tower, and maybe WiFi:
Weavile @ Jolly
Focus Sash @ Pressure
252 Attack/252 Speed/6 HP
~Ice Punch/Ice Shard
~Night Slash
~Brick Break
~Swords Dance
Focus Sash is there because I Swords Dance the first turn, and they (in Battle Tower) tend to attack. I survive, outspeed them, and KO them with Ice Punch or Night Slash.
What is the best Eeveelution for a Shiny Calm Eevee? I can't get egg moves, or change nature, but I can get Platinum move tutors.

GLISCOR, evolve it as soon as you can because Gliscor kills.
Swords Dance
Roost
EQ (Quake)
Stone Edge.
This makes it an all-around player, healing and raising it's stats then sweeping.

I still wouldn't suggest WoW unless it's running a dedicated Status set. I know that Night Slash and Close Combat get good coverage, but if you could get Ice Punch, then you would get wider Super Effective coverage. But you can't, so it doesn't matter.
If she's going for Support, then that set is fine. Changing the last slot to another Status move could work, or using Protect
Delcatty is, to be frank, a horrible Pokemon. If you still want to use it, any of these three sets are viable:
Delcatty @ Leftovers
Jolly
Trait: Cute Charm
172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 Spe
~ Body Slam / Fake Out / Sing
~ Substitute / Protect
~ Calm Mind / Charge Beam / Wish
~ Baton Pass
Delcatty @ Leftovers
Jolly
Trait: Normalize
172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 Spe
~ Thunder Wave
~ Sing
~ Heal Bell / Baton Pass / Wish
~ Return / Double-Edge / Fake Out / Sucker Punch
Delcatty @ Salac Berry
Jolly
Trait: Cute Charm
12 HP / 244 Atk / 252 Spe
~ Assist
~ Substitute
~ Return / Body Slam
~ Payback / Faint Attack / Sucker Punch

Does any one have any good ideas for a Magnezone.
Also, I need a sixth member on my team which includes: Milotic, Dusknior, Alakazam, Magnezone, Rhyperior. If you are interested in helping me, look at my thread called "My competitive diamond team". Thanks

Asking for us to pick Team Member(s) for you is against the rules, especially in the In-Game Single Rates thread.
Magnezone @ Leftovers
Modest
172 HP / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
~ Substitute
~ Magnet Rise
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Ice / Hidden Power Grass
Magnezone @ Choice Scarf
Naive / Timid
6 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Fire / Hidden Power Ice
~ Flash Cannon
~ Explosion / Signal Beam
Magnezone @ Choice Specs
Modest / Timid
172 Atk / 252 SpA / 84 Spe
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Grass / Hidden Power Ice
~ Flash Cannon
~ Explosion
Magnezone @ Life Orb
Mild
88 HP / 88 Atk / 248 SpA / 84 Spe
~ Thunderbolt
~ Hidden Power Ice
~ Flash Cannon / Magnet Rise
~ Explosion / Metal Sound
If you can't get the desired Hidden Power, just use Flash Cannon or Signal Beam, whichever one isn't already being used. You could also use Thunder Wave on non-Choice sets.
