    Seems like longer than it took a Beldum to hatch.
    Wait, can Togepi not breed?
    Togepi (Pokémon) - Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia
    If you mouse-over the little question mark next to "11 cycles" under Breeding, it says "not legitimately obtainable as an egg."

    WTF?

    Put a Magmar in your party with Flame body, cuts the steps needed in half.

    Yeah, I just found that out. I'll have to evolve it into a Togetic first.

    Good idea.

    So Im putting a Battling team together finally. Im trying to be creative with it and not go with the most OU pokemon.... idk. Plus, Im going all shiny on my team... so its not easy to get lol. So far I have two down- a shiny Beldum and a shiny Omanyte. I'm not sure with much more on who Im choosing... but Ill see as I go.

    I decided to make a battle frontier team (does it need to be 50 or 100 for wifi?) and this is what I threw together.

    Togekiss
    calm - serene grace
    EV in HP, 200 in speed, and 52 in defense
    light screen
    roost
    thunderwave
    air slash

    absol
    Docile Nature - super luck
    EV in attack and speed
    Superpower
    Psyco cut
    Swords dance
    sucker punch

    Garchomp
    no clue what its nature is - no clue what its ability is
    EV in attack and speed
    Earthquake
    Dragon Claw
    swords dance
    toxic

    Any critiques or pointers would be great, besides don't use "insert name here". These are subject to change at any time. This is just a quick throw together.

    I may sub out the togekiss for a breloom that is EV'd in speed and possibly HP or attack. It will run with spore, focus punch, a grass move and not sure what else

    i wouldnt do a shiny battling team... well unless you want to take the time to get shinies with the right nature and IVs. i suppose it wouldnt take an exceptional amount of time through breeding.

    Well see, the thing is, is that you can't really tell unless you've done the dedicated EV training. There are berries that lower EVs and there's a person who will tell you if you've maxed out your pokemon's EVs. Do a little research on that and see if you can find anything out.
    Nope. Your pokemon gets EV trained whether you like it or not. Its just how you battle with it. No matter what, when a pokemon defeats another, it earns EXP and EVs based on the pokemon it beats. Dedicated EV training means you only fight certain pokemon to get the desired EVs.
    Changes/advice in bold.

    I'll give you an Ampharos to breed for me. I'll give you a metapod named *****.

    I'll take the ampharos, but hold the *****... Something um... less aptly named perhaps will do.

    Btw Klaydude, which FC of yours should I be using?

    Aura Sphere doesn't need to be bred (a heart scale tutor will do). I don't think Garchomp is banned from OU in WFC although I could be mistaken. If he is, you could try just using the Breloom I mentioned as your lead w/ Togekiss as backup. Plus, passing a sub off to Togekiss or Absol is a great way to get them in free on the switch, especially since Absol is kinda frail.

    Yeah, but I think some on-line servers are banning him too now. He's just way too good.

    Yay! I got all of my guys Im using for my team shiny and level one with the right natures and such. I don't think the pokemon I chose are necessarily an amazing team together, but I like the pokemon I chose so Im not complaining... My team will be as follows...

    Ninjask
    Omastar
    Hitmontop/lee/chan (havent decided which... I think top)
    Metagross
    Toxicroak
    Staraptor

    Again, not an amazing team, and I tried not to pick too many OU pokemon... but its decent and I like the pokemon I picked so yea... critique and **** if you want.

    Btw, its not totally final... I might choose to replace Toxicroak with someone better... but idk.

    My Platinum has every pokemon save for like five or six outta the entire game. Oh, and Red Army, you should show us that Celebi, seeing as they're EXTREMELY hard to get legitimately.
