God, I'm lazy. I don't want to put in the effort to EV train so I'm just beating the Elite 4 a bunch of times and buying a s***load of Proteins/Irons/Etc ...Vitamins stop working the second a certain stat reaches 100 EVs. .............DAMMIT Oh well, I can at least use it as a starting point.

Stack that with pokerus and you're getting 10-12 EVs per battle. I wish I could send mine over from HG; right now I only have the power items for Sp. Attack and Defense.

Not good to have all of his attacks the same type, in this case, Fighting. I'd keep Aura Sphere, swap Close Combat for Calm Mind. Close Combat is not worth decreasing both of his defenses, while Calm Mind increases his Sp. Atk and Sp. Def, giving him an extra kick of power and support. Force Palm is a good Physical move to put his great Attack stat to use; 90 power (due to STAB), 100% accuracy, chance of paralyzing. But IF you're looking for something different, I'd swap out Force Palm for ExtremeSpeed, which he'll learn at level 65. Good power (80), 100% accuracy, and it's priority has been increased to +2, which means 9.5/10 he'll always hit that move first. That choice is up you. I'd get rid of Counter, since it makes you go last, and it depends if the incoming attack is a Physical attack, which is not all the time. The decreased priority doesn't compliment his great Speed, always keep Lucario on the fast side. I'd get rid of it for a move that has type advantage over one of his weaknesses, it's always good to have type coverage. I'd give him Psychic for his own Fighting weakness if you want keep him as a Special Attacker. If you want him to be a "Dragon Slayer" for those frustrating Dragon Pokemon, then Dragon Pulse (which he learns at level 60) is a must. Flash Cannon is also a great move that takes advantage of Lucario's Steel type (120 in power), and has a chance of lowering their Sp. Def, which goes great with your Sp. Atk powered Lucario. So his moveset should look something like: Aura Sphere Force Palm/ExtremeSpeed Calm Mind Psychic/Dragon Pulse/Flash Cannon Thank you very much, I appreciate your help, Im going to work on the moves you told me, Calm Mind is the one Im going to fix, will keep Aura Sphere and will get ExtremeSpeed and Dragon Pulse. No problem. Lucario is one of my favorite Pokemon, so it's always a treat to help a person out with raising their Lucario.

LOL I didn't think anyone was paying attention to my miserable journey of waiting. No, I didn't get it yet. *Cena sadface* Being tight on money AND having to pay off debt is a bitch. But I assure you I'll have it within the month! I've been having my eye on that Hydreigon for a while now. I'm gonna try and get it with Dark Pulse, and I shall nickname it Orochi, after the famous Japanese dragon it's (apparently) based on. It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.

I had no idea why, but I COMPLETELY lost interest in this game all of a sudden. I still play Emerald & SoulSilver, but have stopped playing White. I couldn't figure out why, but then it hit me. It has no Battle Frontier! All it has is a glorified Battle Tower in the Subway. I need more than that. I need variety! Give me my Dome, Castle, Factory, Pyramid, Palace, Pike...ANYTHING! A lone Subway ain't gonna cut it.
I long for the day when the Battle Pyramid from Emerald returns...

Two questions: 1. Does anybody have a Chimchar/Monferno/Infernape that knows Stealth Rock they could trade me? I want to breed a Pawniard that has it and that's the only line that can give it to Pawniard, but they don't learn it in Gen 5 ;__; And I only have one DS and no friends that have one, so I can't send Pokemon from my Gen 4 games. 2. Regarding EV training. I've never done it before, so I just wanna make sure I'm doing it right. If I give my Sneasel a Macho Brace, and fight a Pokemon that gives, say, 2 attack EVs, and then I switched out to a different Pokemon to kill the wild Pokemon, Sneasel would get 4 EVs, yes? I just wanna make absolute certain so I don't f*** up If Sneasel was holding a Power Bracer, and fought a Pokemon that gave 2 attack EVs, would Sneasel get a total of 6 EVs, or just the 4 that the Power Bracer gives? And would switching out to another Pokemon to kill the wild Pokemon effect was Sneasel gets?

As long as the Pokemon gets EXP from battle, it gets the EVs as well. Just make sure the Pokemon you battle gives the EVs you want. Just have plenty of the EV berries at hand (If you use the Dream World). To whom it may concern, if you're just starting out, this process is gonna suck. You'll get used to it in time, but it does not get any easier. I've been doing this since R/S/E and it's still just as tedious as it was back then. This will question your dedication to Pokemon games. I just wish that the Counting App from D/P/Pt was still around. It was A LOT easier to count EVs with that.

And would PokeRus double that amount, so Sneasel would get 12 while holding the Power Bracer? :3 I think I have a Turtwig with PokeRus in a box.

I just use the calculator on my laptop to count EVs.
0+1, then Enter
Every time you press enter, it gets +1! Or when I EV Train, +4, +8, +10, or +12!

Dammit, the Turtwig didn't have Pokerus anymore. My friend might be able to get me a new Pokemon with it, I hope...

Serebii.net has a chat that is fairly active, you can usually find helpful people there who can trade you Pokerus infected pokemon. I haven't been cheated much there. Been a while since I have had a working DS, though, so I haven't used the chat in a long time.

No worries, I already got a Pokemon with it from a friend. A shiny Mudkip, in fact. I'm pretty sure it's legit. Hope so.

Well, I am trying to collect shinies too So I'm hoping it's legit - it looks like it is, my friend's got some shinies that he got from his friend who I think does a lot of Masuda methoding.

I hope it isn't a big deal, but there is a cool little forum game I made, and would like very much if some people checked it out

I am not a huge shiny collector, but I've got a couple from trades that I acquired from luck, like Kricketune and pink Shellos, neither of which I wanted. I got a shiny Absol for the Shellos, though, which was nifty.
