Done. Thanks again for the tip. It’s great having such a clued-up and helpful Pokémon fan here. :bowdown:

Nah, it's nothing. That Excadrill you helped me catch has great stats, which helps me get off to a good start breeding a competitive one.

So I just did a Suprise Trade for the very first time. I skpped Gens 6 and 7, so I never did a Wonder Trade before either. Anyway, I sent a Farfetch'd holding a Leek, hoping it would help out a Shield Player. What do I receive, a Level 1 Magikarp of course! I must admit, it made me laugh lol. xD

Could be worse, could be a Level 100 Magikarp that you can't evolve. Yes, people did that.

Except, this generation fixed that by letting you evolve Pokémon at level 100 by using a Rare Candy.

@Glen-i, you weren’t kidding about Behemoth Bash! :o Crazy move. Looks awesome too! :cool: Already got me out of a few tricky situations in the battle tower.

Loving my powered up Pikachu too. It’s just a shame Pika’s defense is so bad. :hehe:

Good stuff. 

Is there any benefit to breeding a Pokémon with Best stats over simply Hyper Training them?

Cheaper. Also, Hyper trained stats can't be passed on through breeding while "Best" ones can.

I aim for 4 Best IV's and then fill in the rest with Hyper Training. Feels pretty reasonable to do.

So, @Ugh first aid and I are getting a competitive team ready for the online competition in just over a week from now.

@RedShell, she's inspired by your Corsola shenanigans and was wondering if you (or anyone else) happened to have one with the Cursed Body hidden ability.

EDIT: Never mind, one of her friends has one.

Beat the Champion last night, gotta say it was a decent challenge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spoiler

The battle against Eternus was really cool as well.

 

Unlocked the judge function so ready start building a competitive team and working on completing the 'Dex.

Yeah, Champion was the first time I really had to use some kind of strategy.

Spoiler

However, my Pangoro took out a couple of his Pokémon and then Gardevoir could take out a couple as well. So it wasn't down to the last Pokémon or anything but it was nice to fight someone with an unknown line-up and with a varied typing combination.

The ironic thing is that his Charizard is actually his worst Pokémon by far. Any other Pokémon would have been a serious threat when Dynamaxed, but no, he's gotta Dynamax Charizard because Gen 1.

I laughed so hard when I had a genuinely good fight with him, until I one shotted the Charizard.

I've got one. If I breed it will the ability be passed on to the offspring?

If you breed it with a Ditto, you're guaranteed to pass a hidden ability on.
Otherwise, it's 50% chance.

Bred it with a Ditto but 5 eggs have all spawned Rookidees with Big Pecks ability.
