Pokemon X & Y (Post Launch)

also legendary teams normally don't have that many 31 Ivs if any at all, as you cannot breed them. Though I've played against more regular teams, and my donphan seems to make people not very happy when they see his hp go down very slow even after a Dragon Dragon

 

Actually, its really easy for legendary pokemon to have 31 IVs.  With this gen they made it so pokemon in the undiscovered egg group will always have 3 31s, so with a little bit of soft resetting and stat calculating getting really good legendaries isn't that hard. The real problem comes with EV training and the natures since most people that use legendaries don't really know anything about this.

I beat the Veterans using full legendary teams in Institute with my regular Pokemon (well I had Zapdos on me while doing it at some point), so not exactly a full regular team), but regardless I was able to take their full teams down w/my regular stuff. Think one of those teams I beat up legendaries with was Mega Blaziken, Espeon, Garchomp and said Zapdos from X (mind you, they were stuff like Thundurus/other fast legendaries]. 

 

Although I do use legendaries more predominantly nowadays (with sides of the pseudo ones if they fit my team); I actually bother to train them properly using Smogon as a guide. Of course, I've gotten some of my legends OHKOed by some stupid Walrein's Sheer Cold twice in same match; which is either them getting extremely lucky or they have Zoom Lens or something. I killed said walrus immediately after though; serves it right.

 

Last Veteran battle had me dealing with both of the Eon siblings (which does tick me off a lot b/c I find it offensive to have some random CPU using Pokemon that I specialize in), but I know to kill them first because they generally have Draco Meteor + White Herb on them and I'm assuming 31 IVs in speed or everything for that matter (I won though). 

 

Granted though, I don't have perfect IVs on most of them [even after multiple resets for nature]; although I do have a Terrakion with 31 IV in speed from my 3rd run of B/W (Attack IV is 26 or something; not perfect but it should be enough to keep me happy). My Xerneas has 31s in ATK/DEF/SPATK (though wish the perfect was in speed over defense, but 19-20 IV there is acceptable for now).

 

I should start building a new regular team though [working on a Ferrothorn and some Pokes that can stack hazards/status b/c I am lacking that in my general teams]

Guess I'll post my regular team lineup. 
 
[spoiler=Stuff]
Espeon @noitem (probably going to be Leftovers or something)
(Timid) - 252 SPATK / 252 SPD / 6 HP
- Psyshock
- Dazzling Gleam
- Grass Knot
- Calm Mind
 
Has Magic Bounce
 
Lucario @ Lucarionite
(Hasty) - 252 ATK / 252 SPD / 6 SPATK [This is the one from Korrina]
- Close Combat
- EQ
- ExtremeSpeed
- Aura Sphere
 
Metagross @ Choice Band
(Neutral nature; need to get Adamant eventually) - 164 HP / 252 ATK / 88 SPDEF 
- Meteor Mash
- Hammer Arm
- Earthquake
- Rock Polish (should replace this with another move if I'm going to CB)
 
Garchomp @ LO
(Jolly) - 252 ATK / 252 SPD / 6 HP 
- Earthquake
- Dragon Claw
- Crunch
- Stone Edge/Substitute
 
Sand Veil
 
Jolteon @noitem; probably going to be Sash or something
(Naive, going to breed a Timid one eventually) - 252 SPATK / 252 SPD / 6 HP
- Thunderbolt
- Discharge
- Shadow Ball
- Thunder Wave
 
Gardevoir @ Mega Stone
(Modest) - 252 SPATK / 252 SPD / 6 HP
- Thunderbolt
- Psychic
- Focus Blast
- Dazzling Gleam
 
I use this last one as a sub for Chomp or anything is weak to Earthquake (or if I need a replacement for Gardevoir/Lucario if Mega Evolving), though it is a legendary.
I have two of them in active use so some moves will vary (You can probably figure out what this is).
 
Latias @Leftovers/Life Orb (depends if I need her to recover from sandstorm/hail damage or just KO things)
(Timid) - 252 SPATK/252 SPD/6 HP
- Psychic
- Draco Meteor
- Roost/Recover
- Thunderbolt/Surf[/spoiler]
 
Legendary based team: Aforementioned Eons (includes her bro), Terrakion (for double battles and to cover their weaknesses), Raikou, Heatran (has Air Balloon so I don't have to worry about Earthquakes as much; provided partner kills faster threat) and Reshiram/Xerneas (Depending on what I need to do).

Anyone know someone with a ditto friend safari? only have a 3 IV ditto with HP, atk, and def at 31 from a friend.  Need more dittos because I want to start working on a Metagross eventually.

 

Also I have extra Iron head + outrage adamant gibles, they don't have 5Ivs though. If anyone wants one, same with impish phanpy with Ice shard.

You can catch Ditto in Pokemon Village or something, but the IVs are most likely going to be imperfect.

I might have a Friend Safari Ditto in box somewhere, though I didn't check what its best stats are. 

 

Also a reminder to self: Buy a Pokebank subscription so I can do all of my breeding work and so forth; I don't want to release perfectly nice Pokes if I don't have to.

I know about that, I prefer getting a friend safari with them so I don't have to catch 30+ ditto and hope I get 31 IVs on 1.

Mienshao really wants Knock Off. It does it a ton of good vs. Ghosts that resist your stab and U-Turn. 

 

Side from that, it might be my own bias, but I think this deck could do with more a strong offensive pokemon. (Mega) Scizor would be a great option. I'd also recommend a set up sweeper since getting in for free, forcing somethnig out, and getting set up can get you free wins.

personally, I'd try out talunflame W. U-turn as well, it offers speed that the rest of your team kind of lacks,

 

while chinchou does get hydro pump, the lack of accuracy makes it not really the best option for him, surf or scald if he can learn it would probably be better imo.

From June 4th - June 21st in France, the Pokemon Center in Paris will be giving out the special Pokeball Pattern Vivillon, marking its first appearance worldwide. It'll be level 12 with Stun Spore, Gust, Light Screen and Struggle Bug, however we don't know whether the event will happen outside France yet.

Very well.

Adding you now, Thar.

 

On another note, which Pokemon do I have showing up on my game avatar in Multi Battles in Maison (for those of you who have my code added)? Hopefully, it shows the Pokes that I want my avi to be using.

 

I tried using Fusion (Bronzong/Chandelure) and Zex (Ursaring/Porygon2) as partners, since the game friends (Shauna, etc) aren't up to snuff.
