I may go Zapdos hunting, however, YOU CANNOT PARALYZE A ZAPDOS. How else will I get a decent catch rate modifier? I think I need to breed an Eevee with Yawn or something (but I don't want to just replace my existing Jolteon, who has the best type+ability for taking on Zapdos anyway).

I ended up master balling mine because I was nature-hunting and it was taking way too long. @.@ You could evolve that other Eevee into Umbreon (or another defensive one) if you don't want two Jolteons.

Simple!

Inkay/Malamar learn Hypnosis starting at level 18.
Zapdos will only have Discharge for an attack, so teach it Light Screen.
Take any method to whittling it down you like from there.

If you raise a Malamar for this, you'll thank me when you realize how ridiculous a Contrary Superpower user is.

But Yawn NEVER MISSES. As for whittling down its HP, that's easy: Super Fang, Super Fang, Super Fang. I keep it on Noivern's moveset solely for catching wild Pokemon with.

It's not like the battle is a competition. Live a little, raise something interesting.

I fought this guy with my Thunder team and only lost Nanobyte. However, this was after Nano killed a Xerneas, Talonflame, and severely injured a Blaziken. X3

I traded with the guy after. He's... strange... I first traded Mewtwo to him for a shiny Clawitzer. Then he kept showing me Mewtwo again and again. Then he wanted to trade again so I traded Zapdos back for Mewtwo. He didn't offer Zapdos again, but then he kept offering a shiny Sharpedo. I have nothing to trade for one. He kept offering it so I got to the point that I just exited wifi.

Shiny water Pokemon aren't even rare, the GTS is flooded with them since they are so easy to get through chain fishing >__>

I know. I just HATE chaining, I get much too frustrated. Plus I have at least a dozen Mewtwo and birds waiting to be sent over. So basically, I just use them as trade fodder. I really have to many to know what to do with, lol. XD

Wanna have a friendly battle sometime? :3

I mean, from the tourney's point of view we'd both be showing our hands, but I'm damn interested to see the engines of rape you have raised. ~

But my god, Nanobyte is so awesome~

I don't exactly rush the game, I do take my time to enjoy things. But still ... Hypnosis has only 60% accuracy ... in the time it takes to use two of those (for an overall 84% chance to sleep), Yawn is guaranteed to put your opponent under. (And competitively, it almost guarantees your opponent will switch out.)

You should bear in mind Misty Terrain is a thing now, for Yawn users.

The whole point was just to offer you a solution to your posed question/rhetoric and possibly nudge you to try something. No need to be so serious about it.

It's defense is spectacular as is. To give it more of a defense power up would be crazy. Actually, I sort of wish they did to it what they did to Aggron.

So I had a couple of matches to test my team after making preparations for Reno. I wasn't able to KO a single Pokemon in any of the matches I had, because I offset my team's balance to an extreme. It's a little discouraging, but I don't think I have any choice but to keep these changes.

I'm getting increasingly ticked off at my trainer. I thought the basic poses would be more like Black and White's heroine (she was awesome and confident and easily my favorite). However... Her stupid bag (I HATE that stupid bag, it's such an eyesore to look at, come on, give her a backpack or satchel and ditch the purse) only has one dark blue and that's the striped one. Ug. Whenever she changes clothes she does this stupid "tehehe I'm like so totally cute" thing. When she wins a battle, she acts like she's freaking surprised she won whereas the guy knows he's strong. Even her challenge pose is stupid; she looks freaking scared. She's a total girly girl rather than a tomboy so she's the exact opposite of my nature so I get angered by her stupid antics because she's supposed to represent me. Not only all this, but on the trainer ID, she's stinking pidgy-toed. I HATE that pose more than I can put into words. Even in the PR videos she acts like a wuss and it takes time to make her look confident. AUGH! The only reason I chose her was because I normally use a girl for my permanent run. I should have just used a guy and given him my name for Pete's sake. At least he acts like me. :K

Please understand, this game is made by 40 year old perverts.
I think girl gamers get it pretty bad in general. It's funny because I've heard complaints that girls get more customization options than the guys. Yet the guy is much more of an empty slate, so it's easier to insert yourself as the character.

I like to pretend that the way she acts is a cover so no one suspects her to be working for lord Espurr and his army. :I

I laughed a bit too hard at this. XD

Edit: I just caught a shiny Eevee~!

He's Jolly with adaptability. Maybe I'll keep him as an Eevee for a little cup team. Too cute~ X3 (however his nature works well with Leafeon as well, we'll see)

Of course he has max IVs in Special Attack. Go figure. :p

I wanted to catch him in a Premier Ball, but I just went for the quick ball because I didn't have Whiskers with me for some reason. D:<

Edit 2: I caught another shiny Eevee!! >: D

She's Relaxed with her Dream World Ability!! I think I found a tank~ Hmm... X3 (best IVs in HP and Sp. Defense)

I won't evolve anyone until I have enough to choose from. :3

Okay, okay? Okay. So like, I was checking on Serebii's site, and I think this probably tops the spooky hex maniac in the creepy department.
