Agro Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 If I'm breeding I will only have Talonflame (Flame Body) in my team anyway, so I'm not too bothered about eggs.Glad I'm not the only one who uses Flame Body Talonflame as my breeding slave.

~British Soul~ Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Glad I'm not the only one who uses Flame Body Talonflame as my breeding slave. I use a Flame Body Talonflame as a breeding slave too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I guess anything + Fly automatically becomes a _____ slave.Anyone else using Tropius as a Sweet Scent Horde slave for that same reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Nah, I have a Victreebel for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Talonflame's always been my breeding slave, because it was my only Flame Body Poke until I got a Volcarona, and I'm not teaching Volcarona Fly. I actually don't have a set Sweet Scent "slave". I use a Male Combee or a Carnivine. I usually don't horde train far enough from town to require Fly.

Agro Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Getting really sick of trying to IV breed Skarmory.I got 2 of them with 4 perfect IVs (HP/ATK/DEF/Spd vs ATK/DEF/SpD/Spd) and no matter what I try, I can't get one with 5 of them :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I use an Illumise as a Sweet Scent, horde slave, and I would use Tropius instead seeing as it can learn fly, but I always have a fly slave on me at all times anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a 1/6 chance that it won't pass SpA and a 1/2 it will take the correct HP and SpD. Over all your at a bit over 4% to hit.Anyway, I use Vileplume as my Sweet Scent slave. Never thought to use Tropius though. Normally when I EV train my team is Talonflame, Phanpy, Vileplume, Pokemon being trained, 2 pokemon that I want to level. Changing it over to Tropius would free up the Talonflame slot and let me train 3 pokemon. I also have 3 Lucky Eggs I could use on them. I might just look into this.

EliminateHRN Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Eliminate, make sure you do both of the updates first one will fix a known bug in Lumiose and one will fix GTS bugs. (I don't know if Nintendo have preloaded them on now). Ah, yes, I was told that an update was available for the game when I tried booting it up. There was only one though and I'm not sure what the update was for. I just noticed my copy of Y came with a code to get a Scizor. Was this an event at one point or another or just something that came with the game? It only says that it is a Level 50 Scizor and not much else, so I'm lead to believe that it isn't an event like the Torchic one was. But I was just asking because I had no idea.

Cin Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 It was a US event. The updates are mentioned are not necessarily from when you first run the game, the 3Ds will update when you first run, but I don't know if that update will include those patches.

TheTurtleOnceCalledGod Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 TBH, if you aren't using a pokemon that uses any Atk-based moves, one should go for 0 ATK IV, or the minimum possible for your ideal hidden power. Foul Play and Swag. I wonder how gen 7 will look... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foul Play and Swag. I wonder how gen 7 will look...Getting 0 ATK, or 0 in any stat really, is very hard. Not to mention Swag, and to a lesser extent Foul Play, are uncommon moves. With 5 perfects in all but attack HP will be either dark or dragon, going for 0 doesn't really get you anything on that front.Edit: Just learned about the SwagPlay combo. I don't think its all that good, but its something I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BehindTheMask Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 And I keep getting Skarmory with only 2 perfect IVs :( Can't even get it when I try to use one of the Power items to heighten the odds. Power Items will only pass down the one stat guaranteed, and is incompatible with destiny knot. What I like to do is breed 2 3-IV pokes that have 1 overlapping IVs. So, one would have HP, DEF, SPA, and the other would have SPD SPE and the most important IV. Id breed those two together to get 2 4-IV pokes that have some overlap. This was pre-6IV ditto, and if you want, I have a few extra. Also Tropius is pretty boss as a Horde Hunter....it can learn Fly, Sweet Scent, EQ, and Petal Blizzard, so it can hit all 5 at once no matter what...its the most efficent way to do this. Venasaur can learn SS, EQ and PB as well(but no fly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Power Items will only pass down the one stat guaranteed, and is incompatible with destiny knot. ...strange, it's worked so well so far. What I like to do is breed 2 3-IV pokes that have 1 overlapping IVs. So, one would have HP, DEF, SPA, and the other would have SPD SPE and the most important IV. Id breed those two together to get 2 4-IV pokes that have some overlap. Yeah, but I got 2 with 4 perf IVs, 3 overlapping... This was pre-6IV ditto, and if you want, I have a few extra. That'd be cool.

Venasaur can learn SS, EQ and PB as well(but no fly) Uh... Are you sure Tropius can learn Petal Blizzard? Nothing I'm looking at agrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BehindTheMask Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Oh whoops,. my bad on that. It can learn razor leaf though...if its at lvl 100 it should 1-hit everything though. I'm online on X Agro if you wanna trade right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 It can also learn Bulldoze through TM, which I think also works. Is there anything you're looking for in return? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its no big deal Luckily for you, guess who just finished a long line of Harvest Phantump breeding~ I'll get on in a second. Don't remember well, but I think I might still need to add your friend code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
