I'm going to quickly take a shower, eat something, and get all that damn homework done.

 

If I finish early, I'll battle you.

Thanks for the battle Dark.

Felix will add you when he is done doing his British stuff. ;3

 

So discuss stuff about Pokemon.

 

WHO DISCOVERED EVS THE FIRST?

[Sweet Lightning]

I don't get what you're talking about...did you mean to say, who discovered EV's first?

[Tekken Ham]

Obviously Doug, everyone knows he can create pokemon.

[Dark]

I seriously mean who actually found EVs?

 

Who was the first to say: "If you battle a Gengar, your SpA stat will grow higher than your other stats."

 

Or something of that nature.

[Felix]

Probably the guys who made the game?

[El Beasto Perezoso]

Probably a hacker who was seeing how the game's inner workings functioned, and found something that he wanted to name.

[Sweet Lightning]

The creators probably leaked info to the public. (In the Strategy Guides, maybe?)

[Twin_Souls]

HEY guys who missed me

[Dark]

Probably the guys who made the game?

 

xD

 

They didn't come out and say: "HEY LOOK WE PUT THIS SECRET THING CALLED EFFORT VALUES GO AHEAD AND MAKE A WEBSITE CALLED SMOGON KTHXBAI."

[Tekken Ham]

Probably a hacker who grinded Machops.

 

The topic is now on OU Manaphy and its applications. Also we will discuss where to get a flawless/near-flawless one on Wi-Fi before I sav one. I personally will use ScarfPhy or Tail Glow Manaphy. Tail Glow is more of a late game sweeper with a bunch of resistances IMO.

 

Possibly:

 

Manaphy @ Life Orb/Expert Belt/Leftovers/Wacan Berry

Timid

Hydration

252 SpA/ 220 Spe/ 36 Hp

 

~Tail Glow

~Surf

~Ice Beam

~Grass Knot/HP Electric

 

The problem with OU is the lack of Kyogre. No Kyogre means that Manaphy can't rest off all the damage and come back in tip-top shape at the end of the turn. Also it means a lack of Rain Boosted Surfs. However, Manaphy is a decent sweeper in its own right. 220 Spe EV's puts it at 320 Speed stat with a Timid Nature, which beats Neutral Gengar and Neutral Latias by one point. With a Tail Glow up, there is a lot to fear from this Manaphy. Item Choice and last moveslot are where the problem occurs. Life Orb is cool but without Rain and Rest, Manaphy can't use it as efficiently as in Ubers. Expert Belt is the default crap for non LO Attackers that want damage and Manaphy has great coverage with this set. Lefties for a bulkier spread, and Wacan Berry so ScarfGar, Starmies, and ScarfLatias' don't ruin your parade.

[Dark]

Manaphy is OU material. Without Kyogre, it can't really use HydroRest. While that doesn't mean it fails in Ubers, it means that it doesn't belong in Ubers.

 

I can get you a good-natured, good-IV'd Manaphy, but you have to pay me a SHITLOAD for it.

 

Basically, I'll use my AR to get infinite Manaphy Eggs. It'll look legit, but it's from an AR.

 

I'll use PC nature egg glitch to get the nature.

 

I'll find one with Timid/Modest. I'll soft reset and hatch it 9001 times until I get good IVs.

 

The whole process will take upwards of 7 days (since I don't have much time), so tell me if you want it done. And what my "prize" is gonna be.

[Tekken Ham]

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiit. I don't have alot to offer. Ho hum, I don't have a ton of stuff besides some random stuff laying around. I think I have a flawless Banette from a Halloween giveaway, but its only redis on Smogon, so I could give it to you on Smogon, but not on YCM. Besides that I have my Wapanese Arcanine offered a while back and I think I have a pretty good bulky SporePunching Breloom I just made.

 

I can also make gfx(pretty rusty) or go scour Smogon for some cheap redistributable. I think I can probably get an un-RNG'd Shiny flawless Gyara off of anyone now. Because Bozo gives free redis rights to ANYONE who will copypasta some sheet and keep its nn as TRUTH.

 

Other than that, I can't really offer anything until I start a trade thread on Smogon and after finding the time to RNG abuse.

[Felix]

Tekken, I said I wanted that Arcanine:/

[Tekken Ham]

I don't recall and I can't clone so I hope you can, otherwise I've revised some wants but will still take Registeel.

ARs can clone can't they?

[Dark]

Yeah, AR can clone. It has a 99% chance of working. The 1% time it doesn't work, you just try again. :/

 

Ugh. How about this? I get you a Manaphy egg with a Timid nature (unhatched). And then you can soft reset for the IVs. And just give me the best EV you have.

[Tekken Ham]

Don't the IV's stay the same if I keep SRing it? Otherwise I have a morning to kill tomorrow so I'll do it.

[Dark]

Apparently, competitive battling improves math skills. :/

 

@ Tekken Ham: Here is how the game works. The nature is determined after you get the egg from the PokeMart. You can figure out the nature without hatching it by using a glitch (without AR). The IVs are determined after you hatch the egg. So as long as I can trade you over a Timid egg, you can save 1 step before hatching and continously SR for a Timid, good IV'd egg with your OT and ID No.

[Tekken Ham]

I'll do that, sure. Do you want a poke for it or something?

[Dark]

Ehh, what do you have?

 

I'll really take any good EVd Pokemon that I don't have. :/
