I have two modest staryus one level 33 and the other level 5...I wonder wich of them is the better to use in the battle frontier(sp?)...

Staryu 1
Ivs
Hp: Min=24 Max=27 Average= 25
Attack: Min=14 Max=17 Average=15
Defense: Min=30 Max=31 Average=30
Sp Atk: Min =10 Max =14 Average=12
Sp Def: Min=27 Max=30 Average 28
Speed: Min=10 Max=14 Average=12

Staryu 2
Ivs
Hp: Min=20 Max=31 Average=25
Attack: Min=10 Max=31 Average=20
Defense: Min=10 Max=30 Average=20
Sp Atk: Min=20 Max=31 Average=25
Sp Def: Min=10 Max=30 Average=20
Speed: Min=30 Max=31 Average=30

Or I can breed another...

i'd say to use the level 5. good speed/special attack is better than good defenses on starmie.

do either of them have flawless IVs in anything? you can find out by asking the old guy in the house behind the pokecenter in battle frontier. he says stuff like "this pokemon is ______ in ability. the best part, i would say, is its _____. it's flawless! a thing of perfection! if so.

you could get a more accurate handle on what IVs the level 5 one has by using rare candies to level it up to level 30 or so. just save before you do, and reset after you figure out its IVs.

My two staryus have a flawless stat...

The first has flawless defense and the second flawless speed if I believe the old man...

awesome. all the more reason to use the second one.

also, if you really want the best ditto possible, and have a ditto with flawless special attack, you could breed it with your flawless speed one to get a double flawless one, and breed it with a modest one until you get a double flawless modest one. in battle frontier, later on, every stat point really does help.

(hugs flawless SAtk/SDef/Spd modest starmie with natural cure)

So I should breed my flawless speed Staryu with a flawless SpeDef Ditto
then breed the staryu with a modest Ditto(?) until I get a Modest staryu with Flawless speed/Sp Attack/Sp def ?

Does this recquire the use of the everstone ? If so, i'll have to find it...


ps: I wonder if I am now a cascade trainer because of my avatar or not...

That's My Rule!!!
Breed another one if you want, but it all depends on which Battle Frontier Facility you're going to challenge. I say use the level 5 Staryu if you're going to challenge the Battle Pyramid... But for the other facilities, you can go with the level 33 Staryu... But my desicion's leaning more towards the level 33 Staryu...

It's to use in the battle tower against my apprentice(sp?)...

with flawless attack ? But I want to use it against a Ninetails and a Machamp(?) or Machoke (?) the one with four arms...

I think that flawless special attack is better but I am a newbie in strategy(sp?)...

LOL.. starmie has absolutely no use for attack... it needs special attack.
the best stats u need on a starmie are sp attk, sp def, and speed.
anything other than those is just about excessive

and since it takes a very long time to breed genderless pokes with 3 flawless stats, i'd say just go for special attack and speed. otherwise, you could be breeding for weeks, at least.
 

Mawile XD

ello thar
Just breed with Ditto to be perfect in every catagory. If you don't have time, go with the lv. 5 Staryu... It's got more speed, which you need in the Battle Frontier.
 
Yeah, the lvl 5 Staryu is definately better compared to the lvl 33 one. Although defense is nice Starmies need good Speed and Special Attack to be the threats they rightfully are.
