The Magikarp sold at Marvelous Bridge, is it always Naughty nature?

And how much is its IV's?

both should be random.

[AlexBW]

I hava a problem in random matchup in pokemon Black 2. I was about to leave battling before the assistant could give me my battle points when I turned off my 3DS, and when I tried to battle again, the assistant said that I have to wait for an hour, so I waited but it has passed a day and I can not Still connect to random matchup, what is happening?

[Personosrep]

If i use a Droughtails, should i use a Serperior, or different grass type, also is there any non grass/fire type that is good in sunlight

[Shine]

Serperior isn't exactly something you would want to use under the sun, since it lacks abilities like Chlorophyll or Solar Power, and for the physical variant, its coverage move is Aqua Tail, which is a Water-Type move, whose power is reduced by the sun.

I think currently the most common Grass-Type to be used on the same team as DW Ninetales is the DW Venusaur.

Gliscor Poison Heal is OU with good reason,

But is Gliscor Hyper cutter still among the OU tier?
Its defenatly a diffrent pokemon without the abillity in my opinion.. But I'm not sure.

a good 1(which might sound weird) is gastrodon, with storm drain ability, ur opponent has a water poke, an d u have droughtails out, swap to gastrodon, they think your sticking and attack with surf, gastrodon gets +1 SP.attack, then just try to sweep with earthpower or ice beam (if you think they will switch out).

[Personosrep]

Would Veusaur be wall-ish (chlorophyll is good for sweepers, but defensive pokes dont really need the speed), is there anything else?
and thanks for the Gastrodon suggestion, but i just don't like them (design and stuff)

Pokemon aren't divided by ability when tiered. Only species and formes. There might be a complex ban that's pokemon+ability but I don't know.

Anyway, no-one can truly know unless we make Hyper Cutter Gliscor distinct from other Gliscor.
Gliscor was OU last gen but, of course, that was a different metagame. Poison Heal only heals 1/8th HP each turn compared to Leftovers 1/16th so, with Roost, it shouldn't make too much difference to survivabililty, but Poison Heal is definitely preferred.

I am working now with Shiftry, and this guy rocks as a mixed sun sweeper, I really recommand him.
As for non-grass/fire poks that work well in the sun, I think Rock type benefit from it aswel, since water attacks will be weaker. and the extra damage of fire will not be to much of a problem for Rock type. So, I think the Roggenrola evo's work nice with sun or Cradily with Storn drain + Solarbeam/energy ball could work. (especially as counter against DrizzleToadz)

Yeah Exacktly, Chandulure with Shadow tag is banned on some tiers.
While flash fire isn't. Thats why I am asking as I am building an NU/UU team with an current Gligar, but was wondering if I could evolve it with the Hyper cutter
and still remain in the UU/NU tier. Thanks for answering, but I really need a fact here.

A question about the Join Avenue from Black 2 and White 2:


Alright, I know that you can choose what shop your character from Black 2 and White 2 will open in another person's game (Join Avenue) by talking to the male Ace Trainer (Future).

My question is this: how can you determine what type of shop your character from Black and White (the first ones) will open?

I'm not sure, but I suspect it has something to do with the trainer sprite you choose for that game.

It might be the personality you chose on your trainer card

Diamond/pearl/platinum/ heartgold, and soulsilver, just like on the original black and white. Anyways I finally am doing challenge mode on white 2 and am wondering. I'm not that far yet but do any of the normal trainers in the game have more pokemon than they do in normal mode? I haven't noticed yet. I've only noticed that Cheren did.

What games link to Fire Red? Also, the only reason I'm asking is, because it's so easy to trade over that way. You can just hit a button that let's you do it again.

you can pal park from FR/LG/R/S/E to D/P/Pt/HG/SS & then pokeshift to B/W/B2/W2. however, only HG/SS will let you transfer from 3rd to 4th gen multiple times in a day. D/P/Pt will only let you do 6 per 24 hour period.

On the main Serebii site, it says that in BW2 the Aerial Ace TM is found on the Mistralton City Runway, and the PokeEarth says that it's received as a gift. I've spoken to everyone in Mistralton, and still haven't gotten it. Anyone know where it's found?
