I have been seeing a few clefables lately.

Are they good? I might add one to my team if you people think highly of them.

 

[Alzi]

Yes Clefables are good since their new trait in D/P makes them even better.

 

[Shiny Magmortar]

Clefable is a really good Pokemon, if you were so inclined to put one on your team...And the really good part, is that with Magic Guard, you only take damage from attacks, not status...And I'm pretty sure that Stealth Rock doesn't effect it either, with Magic Guard...

 

[E4 Edo]

If you store a pokemon with pokerus stored in the pc will it last forever until it is withdrawn?

 

[Volteon]

Magic Guard just loses to Trace as best ability IMO =P

And Pokévirus always disapears when it's in your party at midnight. If you deposit the Pokémon at 11:59 and take it back at 12:01 it'll still have the virus.

In Box, Pokévirus is safe.

Nope. Once the match is done your poke will still be holding it.

my question is a bit specific
how do you breed a weezing with;
pain split
will-o-wisp

i ask because i breed
misdreavus(with pain split) with koffing
(so had female pain split koffing)
bannete(with w-o-w) with bred koffing(that had pain split)
and got
a koffin with w-o-w and shadow ball
WHY?

Only males can pass on moves. To solve this (to get a pokemon with Pain Split and Will-o-wisp), bred your banette with a female misdreavus and, making sure the resulting egg contains a male, level up misdreavus to level 28 where it will learn Pain Split. Now, you'll have a pokemon with Pain Split and Will-o-wisp to use amongst your pokemon. Bred it with that female Koffing and that's it.

when do I start counting EV's? is it when I get the pokemon or is it from a certain level?
also I lost track of EVs on my lv50 garchomp. can I use EV reducing berries and then EV train it?

 

[Amonitas]

Yes you can.

 

[razor fire]

is specific ID numbers important when it comes to shiny pokemon?

 

[inchture14]

nope ID numbers have nothing to do with the chances of finding a shiny pokemon

 

[razor fire]

why do people keep talking about ID numbers and shiny pkmn? they say there is a secret number in the ID number that makes it easier/harder to get shiny
pkmn.

whats best: macho brace or power items?

 

[Amonitas]

Power items give +4 ev's, macho brace doubles ev's.

No, that's not true. I think what these people may be talking about is certain IDno's are known to be very likely hacked (usually because the Trainer with this ID used a cheat device to create wild shinies). But there is no known correlation between likelihood of shinies and trainer ID.

I use the 6 MagiKarp Fisherman outside Eternia City, As long as you've got a Attacking move you can take them out.
