Can you Poketransfer from Black/White directly to X/Y? I thought it was only B2/W2 to X/Y

I believe you can transfer from any Gen 5 game to XY

So im not totally sure but if you are training using the resturants and use the exp o-power right beforegoing in, i think you get the extra amount of exp throughout all the battles no matter how long it takes time wise

The O-powers never end mid-dialogue or mid-combat. So if you use an o-power that buffs your capture chance and it lasts for 3 minutes and you will be fighting Mewtwo for 70 minutes, the o-power will stay active for the entire fight. Since the restaurants are basically a single long dialogue/cutscene/combat, the o-power doesn't end during it.
At least that is how I think the system works based on what I saw.

That's exactly it. Makes Le Wow very efficient to level in.

Yup, Got from 50-86 in no time at all with Lucky Egg, and XP O-Power. Along with my first Pokemon using Lucky Incense, It makes my money double after I end up selling the Balms.

I'm farming Lucky Eggs for Pokedex purposes (Several Lucky Eggs attached to leveling Pokemon for the purposes of evolving by leveling)
And then I will take Le Wow by storm.

It is so much easier to spread 5 IVs to other pokemon than it was to get my first pokemon with 5 IVs. In my first attempt to get a 5IV Litwick (with no attack), I managed to also get a Litwick with 5 IVs and no special attack. I have been using that one to spread his EVs to other pokemon. I already have a few Phantumps with 5IVs (no male though unfortunately, I need to get a male one so I can spread 5IVs into the Grass egg group), and I just got a Yamask with 5IVs (he is ghost/mineral, so I can start spreading 5IVs into the mineral egg group).
Next step = 5IV Aegislash

Im still trying to get my first 5IV one (Charmander) Too bad I can't just catch a 4/5IV Dittos.. over 200 caught and only 4 3IV ones. My luck is so bad, though I had gotten a 1 Shiny using the PokeRadar.
Ok so I'm breeding a 4IV Male Charmander with a Destiny Knot (Missing HP/Att) and a 3IV Ditto (Has HP, Att, Speed). How am I getting some 2IV ones (They have been With SpAtt and SpDef mostly)?

Try chain fishing. You get stupid amounts of shinies that way apparently.

The way Destiny Knot works is... it is guaranteed to transfer 5 IVs from
whichever parent
. But it always transfers them from a single parent. So if you have a parent with 4 IVs and the destiny knot picks him, you have a chance to pass on the 4 perfect stats, along with one of his imperfect stats, and the game rolls a dice for the last stat. As you can see, there is miniscule chance that you will actually end up getting a 5IV pokemon this way.
A more reliable way of getting to a 5IV pokemon from a 4IV would be this:
Get a charmander1 with 31IV in Def., Satk, Sdef, Spe (4 stats). Make him hold
Destiny Knot
.
Get a charmander2 with 31IVs in Atk. Make him hold a Power Bracer (obtainable in Battle Maison).
If Charmander1 is female, Charmander2 doesn't actually have to be a charmander, it can be any pokemon from the Monster or Dragon egg group with 31 IVs in Atk. Use the friend safari to catch a suitable pokemon with perfect attack. Whatever pokemon you use, I will keep referring to him as Charmander2 for the sake of simplicity.
You basically want to breed them until you get a pokemon with 5IVs (and missing HP). You get one when Charmander1's destiny knot decides to pass on Charmander1's stats, and picks the right ones, and Charmander2 contributes his perfect Atk.
You are not able to pass on a nature this way, but it is much easier to get the right nature on a 5IV pokemon than to get a 5IV pokemon from 4IV pokemon while keeping the right nature up.
Your job isn't done here yet, as you will probably want to get a Charmander with perfect HP. To get that, you have to do this:
Bring your Charmander3, who is the offspring of 1 and 2, with 5 perfect IVs in Atk, Def, Satk, Sdef, Spe. Make him hold Destiny Knot.
Bring a Charmander4 who has perfect HP. Make him hold Power Weight (also from Battle Maison).
Now theoretically, these two can produce a 6IV offspring, but don't rely on it happening too much. You basically want to breed these until you get a Charmander with 5IVs in the stats you want (depends on if you want your Charizard to be a physical or a special sweeper).
Once you get your Charmander with 5IVs you want, just breed him with a Destiny Knot with a Charmander with the nature you actually want and with Everstone. The chance of getting a Charmander with the right nature and with the 5IVs you want is pretty good there. (like 1/12)

Ok I get that, but how come my Charmander (he is holding Destiny Knot) and Ditto aren't making a Charmander with 3IVs though?
Charmander Has x/x/31/31/31/31 (Destiny Knot)
Ditto 31/31/x/x/x/31
Should they together make a Charmander with 3IVs then and no less?

The Destiny Knot can pick whichever 5 stats it wants, and since RNG is a *!@#$ and murphys laws are real, it always picks the bad ones. So I can imagine it usually takes the three Xes from Ditto and throws in an HP, Atk or Spe from him.

Oh never mind, I got it now. (Was very tired doing this last night)
I was under the impression that if I gave a pokemon a Destiny Knot it would choose 5 of its stats to transfer, not choose 5 total stats from the two. I think thats what I was getting wrong.
On a side note. I wish I could hatch a 4IV Female, would make this go tens times faster at this point.

It's probably pulling the x/x from Charmander and the x/x/x from Ditto. IVs of both parents are thrown into a pool and 5 are chosen at random, essentially. This means you can be super unlucky and get crap IVs.

Finally got one, not the one i want, but its still my first 5IV one. Yet still zero females...
Does anyone want a Feebas? I got one in a wondertrade and don't mind breeding some (IVs will suck though)
Post by

Nope. All good on Feebas.
