Pokemon ignorance thread

It may be worth noting that I haven't played any gen VI game, so I have a very low exposure to the new fairy typing.

In General breeding baffles me, the IVs, the natures, hatching for shinies, breeding for moves, it all just seems so tedious that I don't even want to learn it.

Thats why I use pkhex

Its really simple now, the hardest part is getting over the hurtle that is getting a pokemon with 5 or 6 perfect ivs. After that you can use that one to branch into any egg group you like.

Already lost me.

>>28484636
Banch into any egg group. What do you mean by this?

>>28483980
Confirmed for casual.

>pokemon with 5 or 6 perfect ivs
OP can just wait for hyper training to make that 6IV ditto for breeding.

Ground not resisting Fire is easily the trickiest of them.

I was absolutely sure that fire vs ground/rock was swapped and that fire was 1x on rock and 1/2x on ground. I had to look at the chart again after reading your post to confirm that I was wrong. I have no idea where I picked up that misconception except maybe for fire defending vs those two types. I'm baffled right now.

Indeed it is weird. Perhaps we forget this due to competitive tendencies. There are few non-Fire types who can use Fire moves, and few Fire types you'd want to send out against Ground pokemon, especially since most Ground types have Rock moves as well.

I may add that nearly no Fire Pokemon have good Water, Grass, or Ice moves. Fire/Ice and Fire/Grass aren't even done yet. But yeah, finish off that Donphan with a Flamethrower if it's at half health....

I always think Dark resists Ghost and Bug doesn't resist fighting

>>28485844

Dark does resist Ghost. It's the only type that does anymore besides Normal, which is Immune.
