want to ask you guy's opinion, whats the best nature for a Charizard?
another one is how to make sure your pokemon got the DW ability?lets say i want my snivy to get its DW ability how to do so?

about charizard you read about him here but its mostly focus in 4th gen:
http://www.serebii.net/potw-dp/006.shtml

any pokemon that you catch in DW will have DW ability no matter what so to get Snivy with DW ability you have to catch it in DW if you found one~ I think~

if u get female DW pokemon, u can breed the DW ability...but so far, all starter released in DW is male..so u cant breed the ability

thanks.aww sucks to hear that.i want Snivy's DW ability for a perfect grass type sweeper huhu

P/S : is it only me but Modest nature is hard to come by when breeding, got 3 full boxes of oshawott with only 2 modest ones.huhu.sucks that we cant control its hidden power.

breeding for competitive pokemon sucks lol ~tired actually

What you need is a parent with Modest nature, and make it hold Everstone. And you don't need to breed a whole box of babies, do you know about soft-reset breeding? And you need the specific Power Item to pass down the IV you want. Catch lots of Dittos, a box full of them, that way, you can breed any nature you want EASILY. So the ingredients, A box full of Dittos, and an Everstone!

tell me bout soft reset breeding please.how is having a lot of ditto helps?
btw i am breeding a japanese ditto, but the thing about everstone, well ill try it thanks

When you catch lots of Dittos, you will have all sorts of Natures, from which you can select for breeding the nature you want. And, you may even encounter some with perfect IV, those will be used for breeding perfect IV. Breeding competitively can be very complex.

Everstone will give 50% of chance to pass down the desired Nature.

-------------------------

About soft-reset breeding, this is what we do in Gen 4(Platinum, DP, HGSS). I'm not sure if it's still the same in Gen 5 since I've not bred anything yet in BW.
1) Put the parents with the respective items together in Daycare, (Everstone, Power Items like Power Anklet, Power Weight, ect.)

2) Wait for phone call, then SAVE near the Daycare man, after you have saved, receive the egg and hatch it!

3) Check the Nature, Gender and Ability. These 3 characteristics will remain after you have saved before receiving the egg!

4) If it's not any of the 3 characteristics you want, you can either keep the baby or soft-reset(L+R+START+SELECT), then reject the egg and wait for another phone call. Repeat this until you get the desired Nature, Gender and Ability.

5) After you have hatched the egg with all the characteristics you want, it's time to go for IV! This is when you soft-reset mindlessly until you get a Pokemon with OUTSTANDING ability. Again, all the 3 characteristics will remain, the only thing that will change is the IV. You can check it in-game by talking to an IV guy. He's in Nimbasa City, Gear Station, according to Serebii.net. In HGSS, the IV guy is in Battle Tower.

Anyway, you need some Pokemons with 31 IV first before going for the IV breeding. Everstone will get the nature you want pretty easily. So, the main point is to save in front of the Daycare man before receiving the egg. I feel bad to hatch countless numbers of the same Pokemons and put them to sleep in the PC. That's evil!

Edit: put a Pokemon with Flame Body ability in your party to half the hatching steps, Pokemons like Slugma. Breeding IV requires luck when hunting for Dittos. That sucks. Alternatively, you can ask for Pokemons with 31 IV in the stats that you want through trades, it doesn't matter if it's male or female. Just don't ask for too unreal ones, those might be hacked or clones.

is IV is something you can train your pokemon to have a decent IV later?

the games are getting really boring now. Just doing it for the sake of doing it. Expected a bit mroe variety in dream world, haizzzz

Hi folks! Just got my Pokemon Black US yesterday so I'm dumping my friend codes here.

Pokemon Black US :

L-IPSUM : 0862-3631-5003

And just for shits and giggles, I'll dump my Japanese White as well

Pokemon White JP :

Tetra : 3267-1534-5659

the 50% chance of passing down nature and IV don't apply if you're breeding with a foreign pokemon if I'm not mistaken.

Just unlocked the second dream world area... and Diglett dug another row yay....

Didn't wake up the pokemon I sent for two days now... Finally woke it up to get a Bidoof... and apparently the dreaming pokemon Leveled up...

I've read somewhere that if we get above 500 points in one DW session our dreaming pokemon will gain a level if I'm not mistaken~

That must be It, the Dreaming pokemon got Heart sign instead of the usual green whistle above it's head

IV is the gene of the Pokemon, it's born with. Only EV can be trained.
