Once you've gotten the wondercard, can you soft reset in front of the deliveryman for the right IV's/nature/shininess? Or are the stats solidified when you download the event?

Pokemon.com and Pokemon-Games.com have released more info (seemingly, today). http://www.pokemon-games.com/portal/gamenews_detail8.jsp http://www.pokemon-games.com/portal/_img/news_manaphyposter.jpg http://www.pokemon.com/ - If you don't see the ad, refresh. Can anyone explain the...

It could be that on the IV calculator, you forgot to put a level in. I've done that before, and gotten all excited 'cause they're 31 across... and then they're not. :P And the chance of finding a perfect-IV'd Pokemon is 1/32 times 1/32 times... or, 1/32 to the sixth power, which is...

Thanks, but I just got the dex entry. :p Now I've seen all of those (my nice friend showed me Giratina/Celebi/Heatran/Regigigas :d). Now I'm looking for Manaphy and Phione, and I suppose Darkrai. For Darkrai, I'd be using a shiny Charizard/Feraligatr for collateral, unless it's haxed -...

Oh, in your post that I quoted it seemed like you were talking in general. Sorry.

Mew can be traded over the GTS, I've done it myself. o_O And as terribly annoying as a Weedle requesting a Heatran is, people do have a right to ask for anything they want. It's not their fault that they have grand delusions, it's Nintendo's fault for not designing the GTS better...

I'm looking for someone to help me evolve my trading-evolution Pokemon. I'd love to help anyone else out in the same way. I'd also like to see a Celebi/Giratina/Heatran/Regigigas for my Dex, but I guess I can battle someone for that, as well. :p Anyhow, my collateral will be a Mew for Celebi...

I saw this posted in a thread here, but you're right, it does deserve its own thread. Thanks for posting! So, peeps, what kinds of features are we looking for?

Lol, we do. d: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Event This page should hold the information being displayed in this thread, it really should!

Well, that was someone's interpretation here. Don't worry, it really isn't very clear at all, speaking with the standards for mathematical academia in mind. It's a big lump of information that isn't very clear. Lucy, they've got some 'splainin to do! Well, that's what I'm talking about. It...

I not only realize that, but I refute it. :P Like I said, in my experience, the bigger the chain is, even over forty, the better the chance of seeing a shiny patch. That paper says that it plateaus at 40, and stops increasing. I'm saying, in my experience, that's wrong. :p More research...

Y'know, you have to ask permission. Just citing them as a source doesn't cut it.

Wonderguard doesn't do anything special to the Ghost/Dark's - it's programmed to Shedinja's weaknesses, so it only allows Fire/Dark/Ghost/Flying/Rock. At least, so I've heard. I think this was in a thread on Smogon (I LURK).

I think I'm going to start refuting this - when I've had my huge-er chains, the shinies come much more readily. In my 40 chains, though, sometimes I'm resetting for a really long time. :p

Hello, and welcome to Bulbagarden. (: If you have any questions, feel free to PM me (or anyone! ;D).

Don't even bother trying to catch shiny Beldum (or all Beldum, for that matter) unless you have a Masterball to spare. They have the lowest catch rate in the game, shared by the hard-to-catch legendaries (that excludes Dialga/Palkia/Groudon/Kyogre), and they have Take Down, which makes it...

Sorry, I should've done more research. But I'm pretty sure that wild Pokemon can't steal items.

It took me 30 hours of "practice" before I got my first shiny (Shinx, and I only got one on that chain of 72 :p). Keep studying this thread, it helps, especially when you're frustrated. If you want shinies badly enough, keep trying. That's what I did.

Actually, both moves are 100% accurate, barring the effects of Fog/Evasion-boosting moves/Accuracy-reducing moves. The reason this doesn't seem so is because wild Pokemon can't steal items. However, if Theif or Covet is used on an enemy Pokemon, and your Pokemon is not holding a held item, and...

Actually, it's a tiny bit more than 0.0001 (in percent, 0.01%) which is 1/8192, or 2^(-13). Doubled, it's 0.0002. NO, you're terribly, terribly wrong. Do you even know what research is? NO, it's not. 0.0008 doubled is 0.0016. Try any digital calculator - apparently, the one in your mind...
