WAIT I WAS LOOKING AT THE WRONG PERSON

You have dark type, Sneasel, Nuzleaf (hopy stuff), and something else

[Kimono]

hey they made the game!!!
just wait it out at the least there's other things in life to do
after you beat the elite four again, after entering the hall of fame it'll save, then you can soft reset and you'll arrive back at vaniville with no repercussions.

it saved after i beat the champion, then it does the scene and then AZ fight, then credits.

ive soft-reset and it put me right back from where i beat the champion

Okay so there is not a method right now to transfer Pokemon from older games like Pearl, right?

Nintendo was like "hey people like pokemon and maybe they have too MUCH pokemon"
Pokemon Bank is an online cloud system on a 3DS app coming soon where you can send your cherished Magikarps and Sunkerns to, for an annual fee of about 5 dollars. It will feature about 100 boxes (3000 pokemons!) if I'm not mistaken. A lot of people are overreacting but hey, this'll cost Nintendo a bit and I bet this'll be used for more upcoming Pokemon games. Also it cuts out the middleman of having to own more than one DS or something. This is set for late December.

boohoo
you can only soft reset on your second go, fighting AZ is practically story and IT DOES NOT SAY SAVING AFTERWARDS DOES IT PUNK
you only have to do it once for butts quake go eat a bowl of cereal or something

I have semi-perfect honedges if anybooody wants one.
Adamant nature
31/31/31/x/31/31

Obviously if you wanted a sp att based aegislash this would not be helpful.

are perfect pokemon pokemon with 31 everything at level one or something? and how do you breed them? i've pretty much given up on shiny breeding because it's basically impossible.

IVs don't change when a Pokemon levels up. When you breed a Pokemon and you're curious, there's one dude at a Pokemon Center or a house if I recall someone back me up on this, where he tells you if the Pokemon is good or not.

[Ticonderoga]

Its the pokemon center in Kiloude city

"Individual values, IVs for short, sometimes also known as determinant values, DVs for short, are the Pokémon equivalent of genes. They are instrumental in determining the stats of a Pokémon, being responsible for the large variation in stats among untrained Pokémon of the same species."

pokemon is like journey man
the trainer with the silk scarf helps you, and then YOU become the trainer with the silk scarf helping others

so like what does it mean to have perfect ones

also i still dont know where that guy is

[Flamecannon]

A perfect pokemon has full 31 IVs (31 is the max by the way) and the correct nature to go along with it. If I can recallcall legendaries are mainly unable to achieve perfect IVs. Then you gotta focus on the EVs (effort values) which are important as well.

[Ticonderoga]

also i still dont know where that guy is

Kiloude city. Pokemon center. Purple suit/hair. Next to the dressing room.

About to wonder trade away 2 boxes of failed test subject honedges...

[Waru]

yeah but what does having a perfect pokemon do, just give them good stats?
