You mean defense and special defense? Yes sure, if you outspeed the rest and hit like a truck you'll be fine against gym leaders and the E4.

that is a good way to put it.

I guess since Im also avoiding sp att i should look for a jolly or adamant nature?

Quote from Smogon:

"A Jolly nature can be used to outspeed threats such as Heatran and Breloom, though Adamant is generally preferred as Mamoswine needs as much power as possible, and Ice Shard hits many of the Pokemon that outspeed Mamoswine hard."

I'd go with adamant.

egg move question:

piloswine needs to learn ancient power to evolve into mamoswine. to teach ancient power to piloswine ancient power you have to visit the move relearner person. ancient power is an egg move for swinub. my question is, do i still need a male pilo/mamoswine to teach swinub ancient power or does it not matter in this case since it can learn it from the move relearner person?

If I'm understanding you correctly (you're asking which is the better option, right?) then I'd just breed AncientPower onto Swinub, because then you'll save a Heart Scale.

what Im asking is if you need a male pilo/mamoswine to breed ancient power onto swinub or does it not matter in this case since it can relearn the move anyway.?

You don't. (Actually, there are ways, but the discussion of the hardware needed will result in infractions.)

We're keen on discussion clones in the first place. (Mewtwo's Origin is excluded.)

^i think you left out a word^

Thanks for all the help with the Egg move/IV breeding everyone. Used the info over the weekend and came up with some pretty good results

It's considered foreign to a non-European game, so it'd be foreign to a US, Japanese, or Australian game, for example. :)

so something traded to a US copy from a UK copy is still considered foreign?

If we're talking masuda method, I've read that English games all count as the same thing (US/Canadian/UK/Australian).

The Masuda method takes into account country, not language. Although I'm not sure whether or not the games differentiate between the US and Canada.

It doesn't, same goes for the UK and Australian version.
