Ran into yet another shiny while Horde EV Training. This time it's a Seviper, and THANK GOD it wasn't the one Zangoose of the bunch. She even has her hidden ability which is cool I suppose. I'd probably freak out if that happened, though the one time I did run into a Seviper and Zangoose horde, I did manage to catch the Zangoose. It came down to the wire though and was mostly just through being very sure to attack the Sevipers using Wrap and I got lucky not many of them were doing so at a time.

So I bred a Sun team out of boredom, worked out a few kinks here and there (repalced Shiftry with the far superior Venusaur and Heliolisk with the bulkier and more versitle Rotom-Heat) and am now actually pretty successful on Battle Spot Doubles. This surprises me since I was under the impression that weather teams, especially sun-based teams, were old news with the nerf to Drought/Drizzle/Sand Stream.
My only real issue is Trick Room teams because I never see them coming so I can never prepare and bring my Taunter. My entire offense is based on crippling with status from Ninetails, Rotom, or Whimsicott, then sweeping late game with my Chlorophyll Venusaur/Lefeon (depending on whether the situation needs Special or Physical) and Mega Houndoom, which just goes out the window when I am no longer the fastest.

I have two questions:
1) When you evolve a pokemon via trade, does it matter what level you do it at?
2) Would anybody be so kind as to trade a Scizor back to me when I eventually get one to evolve via trade?

You know what you never see anymore? The old GASTRO ACID/SLAKING combo.
I wonder if I could make it work, maybe throw in a Baton Passer to make Slaking the most destructive beast of all time...

Deal. I probably won't be ready for a couple of days, though.

But I already bred my 6IV Feebas. No, really, I got lucky and hatched one before I even filled half a box. Anyway, whenever you're ready.

I don't think Gastro Acid works on Slaking anymore. I think the only thing that overrides Truant is Mummy. Unrelated, anyone else wish you could buy more than one Bank pass at a time? I already am set for over a year but so long as I have the money I'd kind of rather just buy five years worth and not have to worry about it for ages.

I know that Worry Seed doesn't, which was my original plan; just throw him on my Sun team and have Venusaur help him out. EDIT: Shiny Floatzel in a horde while Victory Road grinding. This shiny charm is ridiculous.

From Serebii.net
Nintendo has announced that, as of May 20th 2014, all online services across the DS and Wii games will terminate. This means that you will not be able to go online with any of the following Pokémon games: Pokémon Diamond, Pokémon Pearl, Pokémon Platinum, Pokémon HeartGold, Pokémon SoulSilver, Pokémon Battle Revolution, Pokémon Black, Pokémon White, Pokémon Black 2, Pokémon White 2, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs, Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia & Pokémon Conquest. All online features of these games will be inaccessible, regardless of the console you play them on. All 3DS and Wii U games will continue to be playable online.
Kind of a bummer, if you need to do all your transferring, you have til May.

^ Because Ice-type pokemon are not used very much? They just stall forever. They set up a substitute, toxic orb activates to heal, then protect to get more life back. I have a Cloyster on my team, and a Ludicolo with Ice Beam and I can't touch them. Does Roar or Dragon Tail work on subs?? I know Roar and Whirlwind do, I'm not positive about Dragon Tail (though I'd say "yes" to that, too). Plus certain attacks and abilities can bypass it as well (Hyper Voice and possibly other sound-based attacks, Infiltrator). ...I need to get X or Y eventually. Or B/W or B2/W2.

I guess I'll have make a jolteon in platinum and transfer everything up to x&y on my next few days off. Used the only thunderstone I found in y on my first pikachu.

Not sure why not being able to use wifi on old game would affect sending over pokemon from your save data to a cloud...they'd be foolish to terminate the main draw of the pokebank/poketransfer combo.

This is just online on DS & Wii though right?
I mean the local transfer would still work and the 3DS would still communicate via the poke transfer system with Blackandwhite games, because you don't need to go online with black or white to tansfer pokemon to X or Y, your using the poke transfer instead.
That is how I read it.

Deal. I probably won't be ready for a couple of days, though. A couple of days? But I already bred my 6IV Feebas. No, really, I got lucky and hatched one before I even filled half a box. Anyway, whenever you're ready. I got pretty lucky as well. I got my 5IV Scyther before I went to bed last night. I usually breed before bed because it bores me to death and helps me sleep. I started with one Two IV Scyther and one three IV ditto--replacing with better ones as they were born. I only had to breed about 15 before I got the one I needed. The last two things I was trying to breed were a 5IV froakie and a 5IV drilbur and they took days a piece. I just had bad luck, as I was doing everything properly. I know getting a 6IV can normally take days, but getting a 5IV it supposed to normally take hours at the most. I got what I need. I can trade as soon as you're ready.

My little bro bought a pack of pokemon cards while we were out and just to humor myself, I decided to get one as well. I wound up getting THIS damn thing, which I would assume is at LEAST worth a good 20 bucks.

I don't think shutting down the wifi service well stop you from transferring one game to another because you need like 2 ds if you want to transfer a pokemon from like Soulsiver to black 2 or trading between 2 games you own like Soulsiver/Platinum or black/black2 It involve using the ds itself instead of the online service.
