Alright so I've just got Pokebank on my Jap 3DS, after I connected to the internet and the lady talked for the first time, I was led to a loading screen saying something like "Starting procedure for Pokemon Bank use, please don't turn off power", but then it gave me Error code 006-0112 and brought me back to the start screen and I can't get past it. Can anyone who has bank help?

the nature and IVs for the dogs are set when you encounter them in the bottom of the burned tower. so you would have to have saved just before you enter the bottom level of the tower for the natures to be changed. not sure about KOing them though

We wonder what the fastest hatching species with a gender ratio weighed towards male is. That's in order to determine the current egg spread as fast as possible. Does anyone know?
To be a bit more specific: Togepi had that position with 2651 steps. We can assume that the 6th gen starters have the same step counter as the old ones (5120) but what about the new fossil Pokemon?

Why does it need to be male-weighted for this? I've determined egg spreads with Magikarps just fine. Unless you need gender too, in that case just stick with Togepis.
Been away from these forums for a while...
So I just heard recently that alongside the Friend Safari, there are a number of places/methods where you can obtain Pokemon with 2 or more perfect IV's. What I didn't know was that, among these, were baby Pokemon that can be caught in the wild. Are there any other instances where such IV's are generated, or is that it?

If you still need assistance, I am happy to help :)
Apparently it extends to every Pokemon in the Undiscovered Group, those who are unable to breed - which includudes legendaries, babies and Nidorina (technically, also Nidoqueen, though you cannot catch it).
By the way, we have also caught a Nidorina with 3 perfect IVs. Coincident?
I know that sometimes, for a Special attacker, it's preferred that the Pokémon has a low Physical Attack IV; one instance in which it would help is if the Pokémon were to become confused in battle (so it would do less damage to itself). Is there any instance in which one would prefer a low Special Attack IV on a Physical attacker?
No. There are no moves that the foe uses with your special attack (such as Foul Play for Physical ones) and Confusion damage as you said is physical. It basically doesn't matter for that IV on a physical attacker.

Man, look at all of those legendaries I could have avoided struggling with... Gamefreak implemented this feature two generations too late.
I know this'll make me seem like a noob, it might not belong here, but i have tried everywhere, multiple websites, just to ask for this. (if it is in the wrong place, can someone tell me where to put it)
Does any one have a ditto safari!?!!!!!!! It seems either no one does, or they are full up.
My safari is sandshrew, nincada and gastrodon, pls pm/vm if you have a ditto safari.

You should take a look at the Friend Safari IRC Channel and Spreadsheet and take a look at the registered Ditto safaris - you are a bit late and a lot of people already have every kind of safaris already registered, especially the Ditto people. Good luck
Thanks for the link -- been trying for a little while to get the safari with Ditto. WIsh me luck!
If I evolve my Eevee with Baton Pass into say, Umbreon, and then delete Baton Pass, can I get it back from the move relearner? Or is it gone forever?
Looks like this generation the Pokemon's eggmoves are actually saved. You would know if you were around when Instacheck was working.
May we extend your question? If people transfer a Pokemon via Pokebank, does it register potential egg moves or not?
I am pretty sure it is gone forever, IceBeam. Baton Pass is not an egg move on Eevee, it's a move that Eevee can learn but his evolutions cannot, and I believe that those are still lost forever.
Hey All.
First time attempting to IV breed on a specific monster. Basically, what I am after is a 4 (5 if possible, modest Zweilous). I have the modest nature on a male zweilous. The challenge is breeding down the IV's.
I've read throught the guide published by TheMantyke and whilst it's fantastic, i'm still having trouble :S
I figured the first step is to get the IV's on to something that can breed with zweilous' egg group -- Charmander as it is part dragon and classified in the egg group.
The IV's i'd like to combine via breeding are:
Is it correct to assume the following combination will have this effect:
1) Ditto 1 (Destiny Knot) + Charizard = Charm1 31/x/x/x/x/31
2) Ditto 2 (Destiny Knot) + Charm1 = Charm 2 31/x/x/31/31/31
3) Charm2[F*] (Destiny Knot) + Zweilous[M] Modest (Everstone) = 4IV Deino (Modest)
[F*] Obviously for this part, I will need to breed until I can get a female.
A few questions that I have on actually getting to the final outcome.
1) Does the destiny knot always pass down any perfect IV's on the holding Mon?
2) Is there anything i've missed? So far, i'm only getting 1IV Charm's and that is coming from the Charizard, NOT Ditto 1 with 2?

Firstly, you need a female Zweilous and Male Charmander to breed Deino as the babies species is determined by the mother not father.
Secondly, if you're going to use Ditto as parents, why not just make them breed straight away with the Zweilous and cut out the Charmander in the meantime?
Thirdly, the destiny knot passes down 5 IVs from both parents regardless of who is holding it, so the offspring can get a combination passed down from either parent, this isn't restricted to perfect IVs either, so you can still inherit junk IVs as well.
If for example you have your Ditto 1 breed with Zweilous:
Ditto: 31/26/13/10/8/31
Zweilous: 15/16/2 / 5 /6/28
Hypothetically the baby could be:
31 / 16 / 13 / 10 / 6 / 20
It inherited 5 IVs from the parents, the one that didn't get inherited got generated randomly. You've just gotta keep doing this until you get both the HP and speed from the ditto. According to this calculator you have a 17.1875% for that to happen. Then you can change Ditto 1 for Ditto 2. Except trying to go from 31/x/x/x/x/31 and x/x/x/31/31/x to 31/x/x/31/31/31 is only a 2.3438% chance. If you hatch a 3IV Deino (6.6406% chance) swap that for the Deino parent. Then to go from 3IV and 2IV parents to a 4IV baby is 4.6224%. So it takes a lot of patience and a lot of hatching but you'll get there eventually. The very first breeding project is alway the hardest because you don't have good parents to start with. The best way to get a jump on it is to look for stuff for trade. People send out their 3-4 IV offspring they don't need over WT so you could get lucky there. Otherwise you could ask around here if anyone has any good parents. I might even have some good deino from my breeding project with them!

Cheers Mate. It did clear some stuff up, I omitted that I also wanted a better Charizard (for Mega X) as my current one only had speed. Also, as it serves the purpose for the dragon type I was hoping to have this for the Zweilos breeding. It's a bit messy as it is my first attempt. I've got 3IV charm now, in with a ditto with 1 additional unique IV -- then I will try and refine it further to 5 if I get a little too greedy ;)
I've also mapped up the additonal ditto's and the main charmander to help keep track.
My biggest mistake was assuming that it's a guaranteed that the perfect IV's were passed down. Wasn't I mistaken :P
THank you soo much for the help -- if you're interested in a 4 - 5IV char let me know and i'll give you one for your trouble.
hmmm the only problem I can see is that if you're breeding for a Char-X spread I think it's safe to assume you'll want a more physical spread (something like 31/31/31/x/31/31) while the Deino will probably end up being special (31/x/31/31/31/31) so you'll need to get the perfect SpA IV from somewhere. So I would try breeding a female Deino with Ditto 3 until you get a female with at least x/x/x/31/31/31 to breed with your (hopefully) 31/31/31/x/31/31 Charmander. With those parents you have a ~9% chance to get a 4IV Deino and a ~2% chance to get that perfect 5IV one. If you hatch a 4IV female Deino you can swap that for the 3IV parent to increase your chances (always replace a parent if you breed a better baby)
Just Remember that once you get a few parents with 4-5IV spreads then it becomes way easier to start new breeding projects, so hang in there, it's worth it
and thanks for the offer but I've already got 5IV Charmanders (with Solar Power) and Deino. If you get bored of breeding send me a PM :) happy to help out even if all I get is a new friend safari / partner for multi battles in the Maison
ok, i am a newbie at breeding, but i think i know what i'm doing.
In the daycare i have a:
Fletchling w/ everstone, adamant, 31 / x / x / x / 31 / x (gale wings)
Ditto w/ destiny knot, nvm, x / 31 / x / x / x / 31
I have bread quite a few eggs, and so far, they have been gale wings, adamant, but only 31 / x / x / x / x / x OR x / x / x / x / x / 31
Am i doing some thing wrong, or am i just unlucky?
Edit: it must of been luck, i just got a 31 / 31 / x / x / 31 / 31 adamant gale wings!

Unlucky with the odds stacked against you to begin with.
Each stat has only a 50% chance of passing down from the 31 IV parent, and on top of that you have one stat that is still being rolled.
You might do well to poke around on the trade forum or IRC to see if anyone has any Flying group spitbacks. The Friend Safari IRC channel usually has plenty of breeders on so you should be able to pick up a 4IV pretty easily.
