WANTED: Torchic and/or Charmander with particular stats

Hello, I'm looking for something annoying to counter a Breloom with, and I'll be trading for:

A male Torchic with certain stats (In preperation for when Dream World Torchic is released).
It would need to have a rash nature, and Max IVs in Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. If it's non-English, then Kudos to you, you get a free item (listed below).

And/or a female Charmander with a Dreamworld ability (released in Japan through a promotion). I'm less picky with the Charmander, just giving it a Timid nature and Max IVs in Speed will do.

I know it's a lot to ask for, but I have some nice things on offer (such as one of my special Zoruas found here: http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/showthread.php?p=2988218#post2988218 ).

If that's not good for you, I also have about 20 Heart Scales, Moonstones and Sunstones (found using pickup). And 2 Prism scales because... Milotic.

Thanks!

To be fair, the offspring would still be illegal, simply because there is no such thing as a female dreamworld starter yet. And while the masuda method works, 1:1000 instead of 1:8000, the odds are still stacked against you.

Strategy wise, blaziken has 70 Def and 70 SpD, combine that with fighting-type and fire-type, most of it's threats would be special attacks. As well, it's got 120 Atk and 110 SpA. While fire is mostly special, fighting is almost all physical. So I'd acutally suggest a mild nature for it. (+Spa, -Def)

However, this would matter at all were it not for one bit. Masuda method does not work with held everstones or power items. So while you can get a dream world shiny through masuda, you can't sync natures or force an IV.


Back to the point. I'm willing to give you a regular torchic, but DW starters are still illegal for the general public.

Yeah, even if you breed a hacked female DW starter, the offspring will be considered hacked (and may not even pass down the ability if it doesn't have the DW flag).

Masuda's Method does work with Everstone and Power Items in Generation V.

Also, I'm just going to change the name of this thread to "Wanted: Non-English Torchic with particular stats" because a US/UK Torchic won't help you.

It won't? Dang, that would explain a bit.

Yeh, Masuda method does work in Gen V, so that isn't a problem. Also, they did pass on their abilities.

Thanks for the help, but I still wouldn't mind one for when I get a legitimate female.

And Vixana, about the Special Defence thing... I know what I'm doing. My friend has a team that uses Earthquake, Earthquake and more Earthquake (with a little bit of Fighting). You'de think that would mean I could use flying on him but...
