    RestTalkers are the best use of Worry Seed. Forces them to switch out, and if they can't, then they can't heal.

    It's also useful for things like Ambipom and Scizor, who rely on Technician to super charge their weak attacks to strong.

    I just thought of an idea..

    They should make a hold item, that disappears upon use and there is a limited number in game that when used on an unevolved Pokemon, it's level will go up 1 but it will evolve automatically.

    Indeed.

    So I have a question. Darmamitan (Hihidaruma) has an ability called Sheer Force. That means that moves with secondary affects raise in power by 30% but lose the secondary affect. So, if I use Flare Blitz with that..would that mean it's stronger and doesn't cause recoil?

    That conclusion makes sense. ㅇ.ㅇ What a powerful combo...

    Darmamitan has to be one of the most powerful attackers in the game now.

    It learns Flare Blitz, Hammer Arm, Superpower, and Thrash if it's affected as well. All really powerful attack made even more powerful and no longer affect Darmamitan.

    Darmamitan has a huge attack stat, and with Choice Band it will be a great Pokemon.

    And doesn't the Dream World special Darmamitan have that one ability that boosts its abilities when it's at less than desirable HP levels?

    No, Sheer Force only affects things that have a CHANCE to cause an effect. AKA A Chance to Burn, etc.

    Recoil is not negated. The actual definition is that it will not remove secondary effects that have a negative effect on the user (Like, if one could use Close Combat, it wouldn't work.) Or Hyper Beam (turn to rest), or something like Sky Attack or Solar Beam (charging).

    However, if you use a move that it DOES affect, then you can use a life orb without taking any damage.

    Which is funny, because Klutz users still take damage from Life Orbs, despite not getting the damage boost, and how they're not supposed to be able to use items.

    On a side note: Darmanitan's Daruma mode has the highest Special Attack of any non-legendary Psychic pokemon. (It's their Dream World ability, at 50%, it becomes a Daruma Doll, and becomes Fire/Psychic)

    Okay. Thank you :3 I was confused because Serebii lists recoil on moves as both primary and secondary affects. :frowning2:

    Is Archeos worth raising? It's ability makes me sceptical. But it does have high attack and high speed. (For in-game)

    So I was training my Pururiru on Route 6 through Tabunne while watching Daria, and guess what showed up? That's right, a Shiny Tabunne.

    I screamed "Holy shit!" because I love me some rare shiny Pokemon. <3 I feel so happy now. My day was complete shit and now..it's actually good!

    I am uploading the video now.

    Now I have two 5th generation shinies! A Munna (from Masuda Method) and Tabunne :3

    You know Japanese? I hate you :frowning2: And the only Shiny pokemon I have is a shiny tentacruel I got in emerald. Later in that same game another trainer got a shiny Slugma.

    A shiny Tabunne is perfect! It seems like exactly the sort of shiny pokémon you'd want (as opposed to a Tentacool or something xD).

    So do you know hiragana and katakana, Lady Gaga? If not, have you been picking any up from B/W? I heard there was kanji in this version, too. :confused:

    I didn't see any kanji in Gaga's video.
    Its nature is modest and it's ability is Healing Heart. :slight_smile:

    :3

    I don't know any hiragana or katakana besides a few random hiragana things. And no, I have not learned any from B/W. lol
    There is a Kanji version, I just didn't want to use it.

    Thank you!

    You forgot the Recoil damage.
