Farming Ditto = lots and lots of Quick/Metal Powder

I think it might be easier if I just breed your Pokemon for you, @everyonewhowantsaperfectIVditto.

Catching a specific IV Ditto is annoying.

I've got around 20 and only one each of SpA/Spe and Atk/Spe.

Yuki

00:42

Huh. This Ditto is surprisingly resistant to my Repeat Balls.

Got an Imposter Ditto!

Yuki

01:10

I just got a 3 perfect IV Ditto!

qwertyk31

01:23

@Yuki I am getting my first ditto today

Ben Brocka

Battle mansion is kinda fun but has too many of the same pokemon and takes far, far too long

Also the first half of battles being a complete joke, while still taking just as long to play, makes losing in the second half incredibly frustrating

hey you can rematch your rival

Wipqozn

02:06

@Yuki How do you know that?

I thought the only thing you could find out about IVs was the highest stat, but not it's actual score.

Ben Brocka

Dwebble please

there ARE fossils in glittering cavern right?

okay, helix fossil and plume fossil

Ben Brocka

02:46

TIL nidorina do not realize they're mammals

OrigamiRobot

Where is the Friend Safari? Endgame?

Ben Brocka

anyone want a Throh, Omanite or Areodactyl?

@OrigamiRobot yes

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka I maybe might.

Ben Brocka

do you have a clauncher?

Wipqozn

No sir.

Also I don't actually want any of those. At least not right now.

Ben Brocka

02:49

anything interesting you've got spares of?

Wipqozn

I'm not that far in.

Ben Brocka

alright

Wipqozn

I spent a lot of time trying to get my hands on an abra and the panda.

Their appearance rates are ridiculously low.

Ben Brocka

Throh might be Y exclusive? He's one of the "pairs" that usually are

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn You have the worst taste in Pokemon

Ben Brocka

02:49

really? I got the panda super easy

I do need to get an abra before I forget though

Wipqozn

I got an Abra with a hasty nature, but forgot to check it's IVs.

I think I'm just going to continue on and not care, and then worry about spending hours farming the super perfect pokemon once I'm closer to end game and know what my final party will be,.

There might be better places later game to catch some of thes epokemon anyways.

OrigamiRobot

Tonight's mission: Bisharp

Ben Brocka

For the most part pokemon only appear in one place now. There are few zubat-esque pokemon you'll encounter everywher

infact Floatzel and Lombre are the only ones I've noticed that are like that, when surfing

Wipqozn

Oh, I see.

Makes sense considering how many pokemon there are now.

STill, it would be nice to spend time actually playing the game instead of getting perfect IVs of pokemon which might not even be used.

well not even perfect, but good IVs / nature

neither of which are needed until you start to battle other people

Story mode is always really easy

Ben Brocka

Yeah it's a big upgrade IMO. IT always seemed silly that by the end of the game you'd have <50% of the pokedex seen yet you'd see the same pokemon in half the routes

I love how the daycare people's first reaction to a pokemon holding an egg is to separate it from it's parents

Wipqozn

02:55

I want to get that new sword pokemon.

At least for his final form, which seems really cool.

Also r eally powerful.

Ben Brocka

"Whatcha got there hydreigeon? I'll just grab that out of your mouth-hands..."

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka Are you on your 3DS?

Oh, I could log on and find out

I just evolved my Abra and need to trade it.

Evolve it again and all that jazz

@BenBrocka @Krazer @OrigamiRobot Could any of you help me evolve a Kadabra?

fbueckert

03:36

If you still need it, I'm kicking around.

Trent Hawkins

@BenBrocka I love how after a single pair of pokemon have produced dozens, if not hundreds of eggs, they're still surprised every time.

Madara Uchiha

06:00

@BenBrocka 1 AM? really? :P

We need to find a common timezone

Also this:

Duuuuuuuuuude

qwertyk31

07:00

got pokerus in a trade :)

Madara Uchiha

@qwertyk31 You could've asked @Krazer, he has it :P

Does Pokerus affect super training as well?

Or only battle training?

qwertyk31

IDK

all my pokemon have full evs

i havent got to use super training yet

Madara Uchiha

11:57

Is it true that I can have only one mega evolution per battle?

Yuki

12:25

@MadaraUchiha Yes.

@MadaraUchiha No.

@Wipqozn Well, they'll tell you the highest IV. And if you have 3 IVs at 31 (which is the max), they'll tell you that all three are the highest IV.

@qwertyk31 EVs are gained through normal battling as well.

FAE

Ben Brocka

13:13

@MadaraUchiha Was like 6 here

@Wipqozn you asked just after I left. I can trade tonight if you still need it done. I have a few trade evo pokemon ready myself

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka @fbueckert was a super cool guy helped me.

I can help you evolve your pokemon in a bit, but going afk right now

Ben Brocka

This would be in 9 hours

OrigamiRobot

Got my Pawniard last night. Now to breed it for Adamant.

Ben Brocka

btw breeding adamant beldums if anyone wants one

at least I think I am, everstone makes nature pass down right?

OrigamiRobot

@BenBrocka Yes

Also, please and thank you.

Q: What 'color' is each Berry?

So I was trying to make the different Mulches and the little girl at the field says that the kind of Mulch that comes out of the composter is based on the color of the Berries. So what color is each Berry? I was going to look into it further myself but I do not have access to most of the berrie...

Madara Uchiha

14:10

@BenBrocka Beldums? The ones that evolve into Metagross? I want one

Ben Brocka

@MadaraUchiha those are the ones

Krazer

@Wipqozn Yes. I'm free almost anytime today

@BenBrocka aye doo and sank yu

Madara Uchiha

Europe and US are considered different regions, right? For the Masuda Method?

Krazer

@MadaraUchiha aye

Ben Brocka

@MadaraUchiha it's a different region if you see a tab with a region name on the pokemon's info card

My gengar has an ITA tab (italy )

Madara Uchiha

14:14

Could any of you trade me a US ditto later on than? :P

Ben Brocka

@Yuki is catching billions of them

at least I think he's US I don't actually know

Krazer

@MadaraUchiha me I'll trade you my lvl 48 ditto nau!

Ben Brocka

but he's arround the same time as me

Madara Uchiha

15:54

@Krazer 48 is too high level for me now :D

Krazer

@MadaraUchiha but it save you money on daycare costs!

Madara Uchiha

You're probably right

I don't have the 3DS now anyway, since my brother has it :P

Will have it later today though

Ben Brocka

16:13

level doesn't really matter for the ditto

not like you need to use it in battle

Madara Uchiha

Yeah

The pokedex entry for ditto should be named to "Ditto: The whore Pokemon"

> The only purpose Ditto has is to breed with countless other Pokemon until it is level 100.

Krazer

@MadaraUchiha Ditto, Gigolo Extraordinaire

Ben Brocka

dittoxtanglea

C-dizzle

17:08

I got bored last night, took 5 freshly hatched Charmander and my Garchomp through the Elite 4. Obviously my Garchomp creamed the E4 and champion with no problems.

C-dizzle

17:38

@BenBrocka and yet ANOTHER shiny through the fishing technique. I was hoping for a Corphish, but this will do too.

Ben Brocka

some of the shiny colors are terrible

Thought YELLOW pikachu was cute? Well how about SLIGHTLY DARKER YELLOW omg so kawaii desu

C-dizzle

Yeah I like the shiny Pikachu color, seems like I've been having some good luck on this fishing thing. My magic number seems to be around 30-35 reels most of the time.

Ben Brocka

Really? I don't like the ones that are just a minor difference in shade

compare that to say, shiny charizard

C-dizzle

Now shiny charizard is pretty sweet. I was trying masuda last night for a shiny charmander, I've got a ditto from Spain

Oh and I picked up the strategy guide yesterday too, seems pretty useful so far.

Ben Brocka

17:55

C-dizzle

Haha! Yea the fire/fighting got kind of old, glad they changed it up finally.

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha If you're on right now, I can grab you a Ditto.

Also, I'm doing a test run on breeding 5/6 IVs with a Noibat.

Madara Uchiha

@Yuki coming online now

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha Have you registered my FC?

fbueckert

I should hopefully be able to faceroll the Elite Four today.

Madara Uchiha

18:03

@Yuki Doing so now

Yuki

@fbueckert And then Rough Skin Gabites for all!

fbueckert

@Yuki Just took a few days to rebreed, train, and level my team.

Madara Uchiha

Added you. Going online ingame now

Ben Brocka

rebreeding sounds messy

fbueckert

@BenBrocka On the plus side, they're now min-maxed!

Madara Uchiha

18:06

Gah, wait, lemme grab a replacement from my PC :P

Oh, you can trade straight from PC

fbueckert

And my Ditto finally gets some rest after the tons of action it got.

Madara Uchiha

NEAT!

Ben Brocka

you can trade from PC but you still have to empty/fill your party for the stupid daycare

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha And yes, I named the Ditto "Donna Juan".

Madara Uchiha

Donna Juan? Really :P

Yuki

18:08

Yay, needed Spritzee for my Pokedex.

Madara Uchiha

Thanks

When do I get a decent electric pokemon in this game?!

All I got was minun and that elec/normal crap :X

Ben Brocka

oh right I need a slurpuff or whatever

does Slurpuff sound foul to anyone else?

Sounds like a racist puffball or something

fbueckert

@MadaraUchiha I have no idea; that's all I got, too.

Yuki

Lessee, I still need a Fennekin, Charmeleon, Dodrio, and Bellossom and I'll have seen the entire Central Dex.

I guess I'll go catch a Doduo and Oddish then.

Okay, someone put way too much spice in this clam chowder.

Ben Brocka

Espurr is great

Yuki

18:24

@BenBrocka I had one with lyrics for some emo song but the link broke.

: (

Ben Brocka

FAE

18:42

@Yuki eeeeeeee

Yuki

19:59

Found it~

C-dizzle

20:51

@BenBrocka I've fished and caught the most pathetic shiny ever...

Ben Brocka

Shiny mega gyrados

Yuki

@C-dizzle Awww... Calm. If it was Adamant you might have an awesome Gyarados.

C-dizzle

Didn't think of that

@Yuki yeah when I saw it was Calm I was saddened even more

Yuki

@TrentHawkins comes in, leaves instantly. I think he hates us, guys.

Ben Brocka

I think wanting a specific nature on a shiny is going a bit too far

Though it seems surprisingly likely with this fishing trick

fbueckert

20:53

@Yuki Or my home internet is doing something funny.

C-dizzle

Well you've seen my luck with the fishing trick so far

Madara Uchiha

@Yuki Adamant gives off, what?

C-dizzle

Strong on attack

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha Adamant is +Attack, -Special Attack.

Madara Uchiha

I often prefer +Special Attack

The specials are often more powerful

Yuki

20:54

So it's good for physical sweepers because they don't care about their Special Attack stat.

Ben Brocka

@MadaraUchiha depends on the pokemon

Madara Uchiha

That's true.

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha If you're talking about base power distribution, it's even on the physical/special split.

Madara Uchiha

With Gyarados I'd usually have moves like surf, hyper beam, blizzard, so Sp. ATK works.

C-dizzle

Psychic, Electric and Fire I usually go with +Sp Attack since the usually have good speed already

Madara Uchiha

20:55

@Yuki I'm speaking of the moves the Pokemon has.

Ben Brocka

@MadaraUchiha that's...a shame, because Gyrados has like double attack compared to sp attack

Madara Uchiha

@BenBrocka Base stat-wise?

Ben Brocka

yeah

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha Yeah, 125 Attack opposed to 60 Special Attack.

Madara Uchiha

:o

Yuki

20:56

If you're looking for a physical Water-type attack for STAB goodness, just teach it Waterfall.

Madara Uchiha

MY WHOLE LIFE WERE A LIE!!! A BIG FAT LIE!!!!

Ben Brocka

waaaaait Mega gyarados is Dark but it doesn't learn Bite or Crunch? Booo

C-dizzle

I may try for an Adamant shiny Magikarp later if anyone wants this Calm one

Madara Uchiha

@BenBrocka You can teach him, can you not?

Yuki

@BenBrocka I think Gyarados learns Bite.

Ben Brocka

20:57

Oh wait he does get bite

But not Crunch. And no Crunch's never been a TM unfortunately

Yuki

Although Crunch is much preferred.

Ben Brocka

Was always a bit sad my Weavile couldn't learn crunch and Night Slash is a fair bit weaker

Obviously not a biting pokemon though

Yuki

So far, no good news on the Gyarados + Crunch front.

That's really unfortunate.

C-dizzle

But he can learn Dark Pulse... I would definitely prefer Crunch

Ben Brocka

It's not listed on bulbapedia and they claim to have upgraded moveset to gen 6

Yuki

21:00

Well, at least Flareon finally learns a physical Fire-type move this gen.

Only took him 15 years.

Madara Uchiha

@Yuki Not even by chain breeding?

Yuki

@MadaraUchiha Yeah, someone tried breeding it with Druddigon.

Ben Brocka

@C-dizzle Bite or Payback would be better

He...really doesn't learn much dark at all

C-dizzle

@BenBrocka His Mega-Evolution base stat for Attack is 155 and Sp. Attack is 70

Yuki

And took it to the Relearner just in case it's a base move available to evolution only, a la Clawitzer and most of the pulse moves.

Ben Brocka

21:02

I mean he IS an Atrocious pokemon. And he's got Dark type proper as a Mega. But...almost no moves

C-dizzle

I will get a picture of his Shiny Mega Evo form when I get home from work... fishing for shiny while at work, what a way to spend the day.

Ben Brocka

How is something called Gothorita not a Dark type

Yuki

Hmm... I need to breed a good Inkay.

C-dizzle

A psychic goth, kind of contradicting

Ben Brocka

@Yuki I was thinking of trying Inkay

Yuki

21:07

@BenBrocka Malamar would be ridiculously good against all the Aegislash spamming.

Ben Brocka

I almost evoed mine (not sure how good it's nature is) but I forgot to hold the 3DS upside down, and once the level up text appears it's too late

Yuki

Contrary means that he actually gains Attack when going up against King's Shield.

C-dizzle

@BenBrocka I evolved Inkay into Malamar, decent Psychic type

Ben Brocka

Yeah, Contrary seems pretty nice

Yuki

Dark/Psychic means he takes neutral damage from Sacred Sword and resists Shadow Sneak, two really common moves on Aegislash.

C-dizzle

21:10

Oh yeah I forgot he was dark too... so with the new Fairy type, does that mean EVERY type is now super-effective against something else?

Ben Brocka

What do you mean?

Yuki

@C-dizzle Nope. Normal is still super-effective against nothing.

Ben Brocka

and Normal was always the one super effective against nothing

Trent Hawkins

@BenBrocka Gothorita's typing is one of those ones I always forget - up there with Vibrava (You're seriously telling me it's not bug OR flying?!)

Ben Brocka

It's a flying bug so clearly it's a ground/dragon pokemon

C-dizzle

21:11

Hmm... a team of normal types, sounds like a challenge to me.

Yuki

@C-dizzle Well, you'd definitely take no damage from Ghosts.

Ben Brocka

Sounds like suicide considering how common fighting moves are

Yuki

But be sure to pack one of them with Scrappy.

Ben Brocka

@Yuki normal types often learn some good non-normal moves

Yuki

Oh yeah, Malamar's Topsy-Turvy also screws up any Aegislash that try to mind-game with boosting moves.

Ben Brocka

21:13

for some reason a very large number of random gen 1 pokemon can learn blizard and thunderbolt

C-dizzle

I know Snorlax could learn some pretty good moves

Yuki

@BenBrocka Ice/Electric gives really, really good coverage. There's a reason why BoltBeam is a thing.

Ben Brocka

gorthorita can be male?

I want to catch one and name it Bridget

Yuki

@BenBrocka There are other female-looking Pokemon that have males.

Can't remember anything off the top of my head though.

Ben Brocka

yeah, gradevoir

C-dizzle

21:14

Mr. Mime can be female

Ben Brocka

They should totally have programmed it to change that to Ms. Mime

SaintWacko

@Yuki All the Fennekin evolutions

Ben Brocka

@SaintWacko just Braxien really

SaintWacko

@BenBrocka Oh, okay. I haven't actually seen the last one

C-dizzle

Speaking of which... did anyone catch the new Genesect movie where Mewtwo appears? How did it go from a male speaking voice in the first movie to a female voice in this movie?

Ben Brocka

21:15

@SaintWacko the last one doesn't quite follow braxien. It's sort of like fox> Witch >Wizard

Yuki

@C-dizzle The male voice actor had another commitment and the only one they could find was a female?

I have no clue.

Ben Brocka

I'm sure they could have found a male one if they wanted to

weird because mewtwo definitely looks masculine

C-dizzle

I was just very disappointed...

Yuki

Wonder Trade hijinks:

C-dizzle

Mewtwo Y looks a little more feminine

Yuki

21:18

2

C-dizzle

@Yuki HA!!

Can you make it twerk?

Ben Brocka

@Yuki there are lickitongue hordes and they are terrifying

C-dizzle

@yuki now just get a Zebstrika and name it Robin Thicke

Yuki

►

Yuki

22:03

Maxing your style quickly

Ben Brocka

@Yuki yessss

Yuki

After 100 Premier Balls, Charzardite X now sells for 10,000p.

Now to check if the coupon exists.

OrigamiRobot

@Yuki Pleeeeeeaaaaaaaase

Yuki

@OrigamiRobot He only sells one a day, iirc.

OrigamiRobot

Though, in practice, I so like Charizard Y

Yuki

22:12

So I only have one.

Now to find Mr. Bonding for the Hatching O-Power...

Ben Brocka

Problem is charizard X focuses on physical contact moves, and charizardi tself is more special

also no Drought

so it's really just losing the Flying type weaknesses that's good for X

Yuki

@BenBrocka Base stats are adjusted for Charizard X, I think.

@BenBrocka And weather got nerfed this gen.

Ben Brocka

Signiifcantly adjusted? And even so, it'd nerf his non-mega form significantly then

not a problem if he's your only mega though

@Yuki I think it's still 5 turns? Pretty significant still, enough to kill at least 2 non-resistant pokemon

Yuki

@BenBrocka No, no, Mega Evolutions have different base stats than non-mega.

Never mind, Charizard has equal base stats for Attack and Special Attack, 130 in each.

Still a big jump from his non-mega stats though.

Ben Brocka

I know they're different, but they're usually just 0 10 or 20 added to normal base stats

Yuki

22:17

@BenBrocka I usually see a much larger boost.

Mega Aggron has >200 base defense.

230 base defense, to be exact.

Ben Brocka

In base stats? Most that I looked at were significant, but about 10 or 20 tops

Yuki

And Filter makes him unstoppable.

Tank-wise, that is.

SaintWacko

@Yuki THERE'S A MEGA AGGRON?

I love this gen

Yuki

@BenBrocka Depending on the Pokemon, but I've seen jumps of more than 50 base stat.

Ben Brocka

@Yuki Oh wow that is cheap, I didn';t know about that

Yuki

22:19

@BenBrocka He's pretty much impervious to physical sweepers now.

Ben Brocka

and he loses rock too

which funny enough makes him better defensively

Yuki

But he does lose Rock Head, so Head Smash isn't as good anymore.

Ben Brocka

rare soda!!

damn only one a day

Yuki

For people with max style, the Hatching Power can be found in Cafe Introversion, which is on the south side of Lumiose, I believe.

Ben Brocka

I'm not done yet, is the coupon in the pokemile shop?

Yuki

22:27

@BenBrocka Hmmm... haven't checked that.

Now to check the online Pokemile shop...

Ben Brocka

goomy pls

Oh wow items din't cap at 99 anymore

boooo the evo stone store still only sells the standard 3 stones

Yuki

@BenBrocka Well, you do get all of them for free by doing Super Training, I think.

Ben Brocka

even dusk and sun stones?

Yuki

@BenBrocka I know I got a Dusk Stone from the Aegislash training.

Ben Brocka

from the secret one? how do you even unlock those?

I only unlocked one on my chesnaught and he has max ivs

evs

Yuki

22:36

@BenBrocka Get an award for all the Super Trainings.

And fully trained Pokemon can still do those.

And then do each of the Secret Trainings to unlock the next.

Ben Brocka

oh THAT'S where the colored contacts are, at the pr video thing

still no coupon---WTF where did all my pokemiles go?!

Yuki

@BenBrocka Wait, did you sync to the Global Link?

Ben Brocka

yes...my last sync is in the future though which is probably not good

Yuki

If so, I believe they went here.

Ben Brocka

wtf why?

Yuki

22:39

@BenBrocka I dunno, but there's a bigger item selection on the GL and they're cheaper.

Ben Brocka

oh I can still use them?

Yuki

@BenBrocka Yeah.

I bought 5 Heart Scales for 500 Pokemiles, I think.

And Rare Candies go for 500 Pokemiles instead of 1,000 in-game.

Ben Brocka

cool

I only wanted the coupon tho

Yuki

Yeah, I don't think there's a coupon. At least not yet.

Ben Brocka

buyable PP ups is nice though

Yuki

22:43

I guess I'll do more Wonder Trading and buying stuff with the resultant Pokemiles.

See if I get the coupon for spending lots of Pokemiles.

Ben Brocka

clothes are no cheaper

guess I'll just grind

Blue hat: 4,000
Blat hat: 40,000

Yuki

@BenBrocka Certain dyes varied a lot in price back before we had synthetics.

Purple was expensive as all hell, iirc, and really only high nobility and royalty could offer more than one set of purple clothing.

Ben Brocka

yeah, purple was something ridiculous

Yuki

@BenBrocka I think it was because purple dye could only be derived from a certain snail that lived in a specific place.

Ben Brocka

22:59

Oh my god I HATE the legendary birds in this one

They're roaming, but they don't stay put. And you need to find them like 8 times
