Thanks a lot man. :) I am trying to get some adament pokemon and I can't fine a Ditto that is adament to breed them with. :/

No luck :(

Need anything else?

An Eevee perchance?

I'm an Eevee breeding machine.

I've got my Umbreon and later when the sun starts coming up, I'm going to go for my Espeon. I just got my Flareon.

If you want specific Characteristics or a specific Nature that'll cost you a little more (yes, they DO make a difference!), but if you want BOTH characteristics named by you .. it'll cost you a pretty penny as it'll take me a while to breed one. The most expensive Eevee I offer is : Sex choice, Characteristic and Nature choice.

I haven't chosen how much those'll cost yet, but those are going to be VERY expensive because only 12 % of Eevee are female and they take forever to get.

We're talking pure bred Eevee here too. No Ditto blood. :)

A male and a female Eevee.

Stupid Voltorb flip, lol. I must be a moron; I can't get past 8 coins. So What I do is get at least 4 coins, quit, then restart. Takes forever xD... But I haven't played SS in about a week or two, other than to help some Neowin members who wanted to trade, etc.

Is there a place you can go to to do random battles with people over wifi?

Also, I've still got a box full of cyndaquils if anybody needs one. One of them is a female.

Hm. You know, I actually like the new Voltorb Flip better than the slots. It's less luck, and a LOT more strategy. Also, if you lose a round, you still get to keep all your coins from previous rounds, so there's nothing hindering you from trying over and over again to improve.

This video tells the basic strategy:

It took me a while to actually get better at it. A half hour of not being able to get past level 3, then consistently beating level 3. I got 764 coins after about an hour, most of which was spent on a learning curve. Seriously, the Voltorb Flip's better. You can use skill and actually get stuff.

Also, completely unrelated... I kind of want to beat my Japanese Diamond now, to get a Japanese Ditto. You need the Pokeradar to get it, which means you have to beat the game... I bought Platinum in English lately, and am working through that, but I'm too lazy to beat my Japanese Diamond, cuz it's in Japanese, and I know Japanese. If I didn't, I'd just skip over everything, but because I do, I want to read everything, and I can't skim like in English, so it takes forever and... ugh. I'm so lazy.

Whoah, thanks. That video was pretty helpful. I'm a mathematical idiot, so I never would have figured it out on my own, lol.

And thus I'm about to take on Chuck, with this team.

Flaaffy Lv.26

Croconaw Lv.28

Pidgeotto Lv.26

Vulpix Lv.26

Umbreon Lv.31 (Traded from Pearl)

Umbreon is my fallback, some hell of a fallback considering he's a dark type. It has Wish though, so I can just switch in, Wish, and switch back to something that needs healing. In theory.

And yes, I have no healing items, and I can't be bothered to Surf back to Olivine.

I had to resort to some extra levelling to get through Chuck, traded over to my Pearl version to get some extra levels, also used the TM for Aerial Ace on Pidgeotto.

Now my team stands at this.

Pidgeotto Lv.30

Ampharos Lv.30

Feraligatr Lv.32

Umbreon Lv.31

Vulpix Lv.30

If you hadn't guessed I like to keep my pokes around the same level except for my starter, which I put 2 levels higher. That made the battle a LOT easier, I just used Pidgeotto on his Primeape and Ampharos on Poliwrath. 2HKO's on both.

I haven't beaten the Elite 4 for a second time yet, but what happens after that? I've already beaten Red (Trainer). It seems like there isn't much to do after you complete everything. I was hoping there'd be random wifi battles or a lobby, but it's not even an option. Just friend codes...

Is there anything to do when you've beaten pokemon, besides catching them all? Haha...

When you've beaten the Elite 4 and Red, you could always look into EV Training and Competitive Battling over WiFi. I found that to take up some time when I'd completed Pearl, the Battle Frontier is also available if you want to try that.

I see. I guess I'm done with it, then... EV training is pretty ridiculous and I often resort to just cheating in order to change the stats, lol. I wish the Pokethon had Wifi. I thought those games were actually pretty fun...

I think it's Jolteon, lol

:laugh:. It is.. Guess I'm excited I just need two more to complete my five man and one lady pure bred eevee team.

Shadow - My Umbreon.. Male.

Espeon, female.

Flareon, male.

Glaceon, male.

Jolteon, male (just hatched him)..

Vaporeon is achieved. :)

Next up.. Jolteon and Leafeon, and I'll be completely done with my team of evolved Eevee.

Then the fun part.. leveling them all up to about 23ish.

Where are you at in the game? If you'd like, you can trade me one or two and I can level them up for you with gained exp and then trade them back. :)

Already have a friend helping hatch the eggs. :happy: Thanks though..

Got any requests for an Eevee of your own after we're done getting her full set of Eevee?

Oh okay, just thought I'd offer.

I haven't played pokemon recently and probably won't pick it up for a while. I just wanted an excuse to do something for an hour or 2, lol... so I won't need an Eevee. Thanks, though.

It takes 32 minutes for you to raise a pokemon with a sooth bell in its paws to raise it to full happiness to the point where it'll evolve to a Happiness Evolvable form.

Long story short as to how I know this; I had to redo my whole Eevee team. They're now

Umbreon Docile/Defensive, Leafeon Docile/HP Bonus, Espeon Serious/Special Attack Bonus, Bashful/Special Defense .. and I'm working on getting the others without the hindering status affects/effects.

The team is as follows, so far.. :

Shadow - Umbreon.

Astoria - Espeon.

Odhran (it means "little pale green one" in Irish) - Lefeon.

Eis (it means Ice in German) - Glaceon.

:happy:

Thank God for help from awesome and understanding friends.

Thanks for the male Eevee. Now I can breed my own batch. :p

Good luck, it takes FOREVER.. if you need any more, prehatched, just ask..

As far as the rest of the thread:

1zcedea.jpg

My whole family of Eevee so far. Skarlet will be my Flareon when I get the Firestone.

Good luck, it takes FOREVER.. if you need any more, prehatched, just ask..

Yeah it does. I did it a while back. I actually haven't hatched them all yet... just 4 of them (and trained the original Eevee from Bill)... got 2 more eggs in my PC. By the way, I DOUBT anyone needs them, but I can supply eggs of all three DPPt starters if anyone wants them. I bought Platinum after HeartGold cuz I never beat 4th gen (bought Diamond ages ago in Japanese but got bored) and just kept restarting and trading over the starters to my HG, before I started for real.

By the way, I'd love it if anyone started HG/SS with a Totodile and would be willing to give me an egg (breed it with Ditto kind of thing)... I'm too afraid to go on GTS because I don't want a hacked one. I don't want one with perfect stats or a certain nature, you know, just a genuine one... yeah. I have Chikorita and Cyndaquil eggs I could supply as well! =D

    • Onkyo Dolby Atmos AV receivers are really solid deals by Sayan Sen Recently we covered great deals on several soundbar models from the likes of Sony, JBL, Samsung and others for really good prices (the lowest in several months). Aside from that we also reported on the Edifier S3000MKII, a hi-fi two-way bookshelf monitor that's available for only $800. Today we bring a list of AV receivers from Onkyo that are available at great prices including the Onkyo NR7100, RZ30, and 8470 (purchase links under the specs table down below). The Onkyo TX-NR7100 and Onkyo TX-RZ30 are both 9.2-channel AV receivers designed for immersive home theater setups but they occupy slightly different tiers within Onkyo’s lineup with the RZ30 positioned as the more advanced model. The TX-NR7100 is a THX Certified 9.2-channel receiver offering up to 100 W per channel (8 ohms, 2 channels driven). It supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced formats, with flexible configurations such as 5.1.4 or 7.1.2 speaker layouts. A key highlight is its built-in Dirac Live Room Correction which should help optimize sound based on your room and its acoustics. In comparison, both models share several core capabilities though the RZ30 is geared toward enthusiasts seeking more precise calibration and system flexibility, while the NR7100 is positioned as a slightly more accessible, value-focused option with strong all-round performance. The technical specs of the RZ30 and NR7100 9.2 AVRs are given in the table below: Specification Onkyo TX-RZ30 Onkyo TX-NR7100 Power Output (FTC, 2ch driven) ~100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) 100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) Dynamic / Peak Power 9 × 170 W (6Ω, 1kHz, 1% THD, 1ch driven) 220 W/ch (6Ω, 1kHz, 10% THD, 1ch driven) Frequency Response 5 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) 10 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) THD 0.08% 0.08% Room Correction Dirac Live (full bandwidth) Dirac Live (with AccuReflex support) Immersive Audio Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Speaker Layout Support Up to 7.2.2 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing Up to 7.2.4 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing HDMI Inputs / Outputs 6 inputs / 2 outputs (eARC) 6 inputs / 2 outputs (Main + Sub/Zone 2) HDMI 2.1 Support 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC Video Formats HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 Streaming / Network Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Get them at the links below: Onkyo TX-RZ30 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $797.00 (Sold and shipped by Electronic Expo) Onkyo TX-NR7100 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $699.00 (Sold and shipped by Adorma) Onkyo TX-8470 2 Ch Stereo Receiver: $449.00 (Sold and Shipped by Adorma) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • A different thing with Russia. When you say is it better, depends on things. It is better that we don't have the E.U making rules and laws that have nothing to do with them. Is the trading part better? No, that is really mucked up, but then we knew that was going to happen and we would have make agreements, like we do with other parts of the world. Freedom of movement is certainly better, but could be improved, we still need more control over our borders. do you live in the U.K?
    • So what am I quoting from them? I never listened to what Farage or his cronies said. I wanted the U.K to leave the E.u years before the referendum and it had nothing to do with Farage and his cronies. So what country do you live in? Did we work much better together? We were always at logger heads with the E.U because we disagreed with them so much. Maggie was always on at them. I would have thought the E.U was glad to get rid of us as we stopped the integration or made it a two tier. Now without us they can integrate more. I would not have voted out if it was just a trading block and we can still work together on somethings.

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.
