Hordes are better for Ev training. You can "Reset" stats on a Lv 100 (As in get them to recalculate) I think by depositing them in the PC and withdrawing them again.

I know about EV training via hordes but I don't know if it works for Lvl 100 Pokemon. That's why I asked about Supertraining. think I will test horde battles on a Lvl 100 once Pokebank is released.
I just thought there wasn't any way to EV train a Lvl 100. If what you are telling me is true I was fooled since RSE xD
Actually the EV's apply immediately, so the moment you get them they are applied to stats immediately without needing to box them then withdrawing them. And yes, Level 100's can gain EV's in battle, etc. This has been the case since Gen V. What DHR says as quoted was the case before Gen V.
Can I use thief to steal battle items from in game trainers like in the Maison?
Yes, but you do not get to keep the item after the match. Unless of course, they are holding a Mega Stone since they cannot be stolen.
Thanks. Now I know why everyone's asking for leftovers and battle items over at the Wifi subforum. Last question - Masterballs don't get passed down to children right? Unlike the other balls where if the pokemon inside is the female, the children will hatch with those balls too? I'm just wondering why a lot have been asking for master balls as well.
Anyone know if Beat Up is using the same formula as last gen? (base damage is set by the attacker, all following hits use that base damage with teammate's attack stats)
I tested it with a shuckle and a hariyama in my team. Shuckle's hit did noticeably less damage than Hariyama's, so it still uses some element of the teammate's power in the calculation.

Does breeding a vivillon maintain its pattern? Ie. my local vivillon is supposed to be tropical, and I breed a tundra one. which pattern will the spewpa get?
I'm breeding for Snorlax... does anyone know if I breed for a Munchlax and teach it Stockpile and evolve it into a Snorlax. Will the Snorlax, when bred, pass down Stockpile?
I want Stockpile on my Snorlax, but having to have Full Incenense on Snorlax makes it's too hard to breed for nature and IV's without the Destiny Knot or Everstone.

The egg is based off of your own location, so it'd be Tropical.
Ahh that's unfortunate. Thanks.
Don't even need to do that. EVs are added at the end of the battle, so it's as simple as beating the Pokemon to gain EVs.
From what I can tell, it can- it's happened to me quite a lot. I believe Pokemon will only pass down the moves they knew before being deposited.
so there are some pokemon i cant get because i didnt have the game when they were giving them away. Think its "justified" to be able to hack the event into my game to get them or no?
also, what are considered "legal hacks"
also, what are considered "legal hacks"
Granted, I have limited knowledge on this front, but if you're referring to XY on the 3DS, I wasn't aware any hacks existed for this platform. Disregarding that, if you're referring to the Speed Boost Torchic, wouldn't it be much simpler and more legitimate to just ask for one by trade?
Otherwise, in general, if it's an event legendary, then by all means try hacking the event in if you really want it.
Legal hacks are basically hacks that create a Pokemon that are valid by any normal means, just without the luck or complexity involved in obtaining one.
Thanks, saves me a lot of trouble lol.
I have another question about Musada Method. You need to use a Pokemon from another region and breed with a Pokemon from your region for increased chance of Shiny, correct?

Im so sorry, I should have been more specific. So im playing other games to get ready to transfer for pokemon bank + pokemon x/y and thats what my question is asking lol
If you hack to get otherwise unobtainable event legendaries, that might be detected by Pokebank, depending on how good their safeguards are.
If you RNG, that's a legal hack, because it basically just guarantees you a perfect mon that you could've gotten by breeding/soft resetting.
Does hidden power get a STAB boost with protean?
Yes. Hidden Power is considered a typed move.
Actually, she was outside of Cafe' Cyclone by Vert Plaza. Thank you though.
I also just found the original one I 'lost'... Was left on the Deino I forgot I left in the daycare. derp
