repost from /ekx/:
Alright, I just started the Ditto giveaway bot again!

Deposit a Ledyba asking for a lvl 91+ or "Any level" ditto to receive a free shiny ditto with 6IV and Destiny Knot.

If you want a more specific ditto you can get that by renaming your Ledyba, just follow these simple rules:

For a Adamat-nature Ditto, call your Ledyba "Adamant", for a Careful-nature call it "Careful" (works for all natures)

For a HP Fire Ditto call your Ledyba "HPFire", for HP Dragon call it "HPDragon" (also works for all HP, no spaces and make sure you write it correct)

Please make sure you write it correctly, no spaces in the name and correct capitalization is important here.

All standard or HP Dittos come with adamant nature.

The specific Ditto request method isn't fully tested yet, so feel free to try it out and tell me if it doesn't work.
>>
>>30180588
i'm gonna try that once I catch another Ledyba.
thanks

>>30181848
do you mean something else than ledyba or something else than ditto?

Both are variable, but if too many people start requesting the bot won't be able to catch up (since it is still just one n3ds doing all the trades).

About how long does it take?

Other than injecting, how do you get a 6 iv Ditto? Level 100 with that new Hyper Training?
>>
>>30181994
Hyper training only increases the stat in battle, not for breeding.
>>
>>30181994
Hyper training doesn't change IVs it just puts the stats at what they would be if the Pokemon had 6IVs
>>
>>30181969
In theory yea, but I'd have to change some stuff in the code, maybe later

>>30181977
depends, if you are lucky it takes <1min, if you are unlucky and 10 people request right after you your pokemon moves to the back of the queue. If you haven't gotten yours within 5-10 min I'd say go redeposit it to move it to the front of the queue again.
>>

The new training raises status but not the actual IV

The best method would be either the old IV manipulating glitch, or just get stupidly lucky. Friend Safari would be best place to go for a legit 3iv+ Ditto though, since it's guaranteed to have at least 2 already.

>>
>>30182099
Imposter is legal. You can chain them in sun and moon.
>>30182127
Probably a 31/0/31/0/31/0 spread with relaxed. the 0s are for pretty much the MOST situational reasons, and they aren't really that important. minimum speed so incase you ever end up against another ditto, you struggle last winning you the fight. 0 attack so less damage from confusion and payback for if and ONLY if your imposter failed for whatever reason. 0 sp atk for power split incase your imposter failed. 248 evs in hp for 299 hp as opposed to 300 for more switch ins on rocks, def nature and max def for incase a ditto struggle fight or another reason your imposter fails. That would probably be the 'perfect' competitive ditto.
>>

OT is Asuka, would really appreciate it.

Sorry, foul play, not payback.

>>
>>30182251
pure luck, unless you are one of the people that keep requesting a dugtrio instead (seen a few of those)

The bot just takes the first ditto request it sees, so if people deposit right after you you move to the back (and since currently a lot of people are requesting your won't come back to the front for a while).

Should probably change it to check from the back first next time... but that requires more time
>>
>>30182312
Nope, It's asking for ditto. :/ Can anybody get one from the bot and trade it to me themselves? OT is Jack. Boy with black glasses, skull tank wine red hair/pyukumuku hat.
>>
>>30182312
How does it work btw
>>
>>30182312
You think it can be coded in such a way that if people asked for specific nature's, dittos with everstones will be given?

Granted I can just farm some boldores for them but hey, the option is there
>>
>>30180588
Just put one up for a HP Fire ditto, thanks
>>
>>30182362
NTR to access the ram for injecting/reading what people requested and input redirection to press buttons

>>30182366
it already is, kinda. Basically when you request a pokemon with a name it checks a folder on my hdd for a .pk7 file with that name and injects that one, if it can't find a file with that name it injects a standard ditto. I'd just have to change all the nature pk7 to give a everstone instead, might do that next time

IGN: Elinie
Thanks a lot
>>
>>30180588
Thank you sir!
>>
>>30182312
Yeah, switching it around would be a lot wiser. A good old fashioned queue.
>>
>>30182145
I worked! Thank you Science Anon!
>>
>>30182951
problem with that is that even then I can only check the last X pokemon, unless I spend a shitton of time to scroll to the very back.

And if I only check the last 50 or so people will get pushed out of the queue, too.

But it would discourage redepositing your pokemon too fast (since redepositing makes sure you won't get your pokemon in the next X trades)

Idk if that is a good solution... I'll have to think about something, maybe making it a more rare pokemon would be enough (but that's kinda against the spirit of a giveaway).

Allowing only one pokemon per person is also hard to accomplish since I only get the trainer name before the trade and too many people have the same name.

For now I can just recommend to redeposit every few minutes and not request too many dittos at once so that other people get their turns, too
>>
>>30183145
Dude you put in the effort and made a bot that can distribute dittos autonomously. It's fine if it doesn't work perfectly and you have to ask people to act in certain ways to make it better.

A suggestion I have is that maybe rethink the idea that it has to be a "common" pokemon to be a giveaway. Why not something like a Golduck- chances are no matter how "common" the pokemon is, people are still going to have to catch one before sending it to the GTS, so instead of common think "not on the GTS but has a reasonably high encounter rate in the wild in a specific area"
>>
>>30183145
This going to be on all day?
>>
>>30183145
So... if i redeposit the ledyba i have more chance to receive the ditto ?
>>
Is the bot still running, or am I too late?
>>
>>30183544
yea, will probably do that next time. And while it is nice that people can request different dittos it probably also adds to the issue that the same people are requesting repeatedly and others get skipped. But even then, there's at least one guy from /ekx/ who has been requesting the same standard ditto at least 6 times by now... not sure what he wants with so many dittos.

>>30183610
probably for the next 6h or so, unless it crashes inbetween and I forget to check, but so far so good.

>>30183655
yes, it always takes the first ditto it finds. With the current storm of people I'd say if you didn't get your ditto within the first 3 minutes you won't get it for the next few hours unless you redeposit.
>>
>>30183729
So it's a bot giving out Ditto's?

>>30183729
Do trainers have a unique ID that's visible in the GTS? Probably not, huh?

How much of an issue is it to cycle through different pokemon? Another solution to reduce the load would be to let people randomly decide which pokemon they want to upload between 4-5 of the ones that fulfill the requirements. Since the issue is that you're basically always going from the back of the line, it might just be easier to increase the number of lines.

>Do trainers have a unique ID that's visible in the GTS? Probably not, huh?

Haven't found it yet, I guess the picture is somewhat unique, combined with the name... need to do more research on that. Usually the whole trainer id is encrypted in the pokemon and sadly the GTS doesn't give me the whole information about that before the trade(wanted to make a bot that checks the deposited pokemons tid/sid and sends a pokemon with sid/tid as name as a result at first)

The line thing might work once there's a ton of requests like now, I'll note that one down
>>

Can there be two bots?

Maybe one works from the front and the other from the back

I think it'd be interesting if they put GTS requests from your friends at the very top of the list, to facilitate quick trading.
>>
>>30184043
yea, but I'd need a 2nd n3ds with cfw for that. Probably less of a problem when I release the bot and more people can join in on the giveaway

>>30184565
the bot ignores everyone that's not the first to request.

You can either wait and hope that the requests die down in the coming hours and the bot eventually gets to you before I shut him down or you keep redepositing every 3 min until you get it.

probably in the coming days unless I lose motivation.

I don't understand. Isn't the point of that new bottle cap item to eliminate the retarded IV breeding fiasco that filled by PC with piles of shitty versions of the pokemon I wanted?

What's the appeal of having a 6 IV Ditto? Why do you need one traded to you? Can't you just make one yourself by catching a Ditto and using the bottle cap thing?

I haven't bought this game yet, and if that breeding grind shit for IVs is still there, I'm out.

HOL UP

I was under the impression that bottle caps increased IVs to maximum. How is that not increasing the IVs?
>>
>>30185354
Bottle caps only mask your IVs to make them look and function in battle, as if they were maxed. This is helpful in a way, but detrimental in others.

Also, the bot must hate me because I've been waiting for 2 hours, re depositing every 15 mins or so and still nothing. But the wait will be worth it.
>>
thank you very much ! just got mine
>>
>>30185517
Do you mean to tell me it's a temporary effect?

Is GF fucking serious? They didn't eliminate the completely pointless IV bullshit, and the one feature I was most looking forward to is some half baked "masks the IVs" shit?

I can't do it again. IV breeding is the worst thing that ever happened to this franchise. It's tedious and boring, and absolutely required for what I actually want to do, which is battling people.

Fuck Gamefreak, the fucking hacks.
>>
>tfw ledyba is rare
>>
>>30185486
They do. People are just retarded.

The argument is that they don't BREED as if their IVs are maxxed, but assuming it's the mon you want to use in battle, you get everything you need, a full 31 spread.
>>
>>30185617
>Iv breeding is required

>>
>>30185643
>IVs aren't retarded
>IVs aren't a completely pointless feature in this game
>IV breeding isn't tedious game stretching "gameplay" trash

IVs serve no purpose. They are not like EVs, where you have opportunity cost for selecting EVs and customizing a pokemon to how you plan to use it. IVs are simply "you want these ones at 31, you can ignore this one, or you want this IV at 1 for trick room".

They are the most pointless feature in these games and only exist to make 99% of the pokemon you own look flawed.

Anyone who doesn't disdain IVs is a complete retard.

>>
>>30185617
It's not temporary at all. The thing is, if you use bottle caps on a Pokemon and breed said Pokemon, it will only pass down its old IVs. For instance, let's say that before using the cap you had 18 IVs. After you use it, it will max out. However, the previous IV is still taken into account when it comes to Hidden Power and breeding.
>>
WHY WOULD YOU CHOOSE A RARE POKEMON LIKE LEDYBA
I'M HAVING A PANIC ATTACK
>>
>>30185486
LET ME CLEAR THIS UP FOR ALL YOU ILLITERATES:
The bottle caps DO INDEED increase IVs but only during battles and in the status menu. Think of it as your pokemon pushing past its natural potential limit.

Ok, but how do you people not realize that this eliminates the merit in breeding for IVs?

You can just IV cap everything after the fact and focus on breeding for eggs moves and natures.

>>30185785
>Hidden Power

Yet another false depth trash feature in this game.

>this move's type is determined by specific combinations of IV values
>values you can't see in game
>level everything to 50 and use some IV calculator to figure out if you have the specific IV value

It's fucking retarded. Why, at genVII, are we still dealing with vague hints to IV values in game rather than just displaying the fucking number? Same with EV values, why the fuck hasn't Gamefreak caught on and just displayed the fucking number value in the status screens?

genwunner, played competitively since gen 4, but i'm gonna give some deviled advocates on this topic

IVs are more of a necessary evil to 'reward' breeding and hunting from a non-competitive standpoint: to individualize your efforts, to really give a 'signature' to -your- specific pokemon and the various hurdles and macguffins you've conquered to get them to that point.

i've always respected it as a feature, since it gives a form of objective 'quality' to the various smogonbirds and shitmons people enjoy collecting. it got real ugly when you needed a 'perfect IV' legendary, but that's the only case where it's been a true hindrance for me in the past.

competitively speaking, IVs are a hideous concept that invoke way too much grind for players who want to have a wide roster of things they can build a team from.

my general routing on this type of thing is to fully breed a near-perfect team or two, dick about with it for awhile and then adopt some method of injecting/hackmons to avoid the ungodly grind of filling a box or two with usable, competitive staples


i don't think IVs are a terrible concept, i really appreciate how they've become much more accessibly 'fixed' in SUMO, but in the past they've always been a benchmark of 'how tough are ya' when it comes to your input of effort toward competitive play.

that said,

Except prior to genIII, you had no control over your IVs whatsoever.

The moment they let you touch them, the concept of IVs went to shit. The moment pokemon caught on as more than a single player experience, that is to say the moment it had real competitive gameplay, the concept of IVs went to shit.

It's a trash feature now with no depth, and Gamefreak is fucking retarded to keep it around but with more and more band aid fixes.

I can see both sides of the argument, but in the end I say keep them because it separates casuals who can't understand it. You spent time on a pokemon you like? Here's your reward, you get a slightly better pokemon. That one point of speed above your opponent is really the biggest game changer of all. Speed is imho the most impacting of all IVs, some need it at 0 and most need full investment.

It's not that hard to understand why they have SOME kind of nature/nurture control and why it takes a bit of effort. Idk I don't see a huge issue with that, and it's not exactly hard with all the 6iv dittos, destiny knot and bottle caps. For people who want to be "legit" and speed up the process there are now options, ask for someone to trade over a cap. Not that hard.

What I hate the most are tutors. Give us a fucking TM holy shit.

Casuals already ignore shit, like EVs and decent move sets.

IVs are put behind retarded barriers of vagueness and obscurity that STILL requires a ridiculous effort to breach.

What it boils down to is that as a feature, with so much left outside of direct player control and left to the odds, IVs add nothing to player decisions.

With EVs, every point is an opportunity cost. With move sets, every move selected comes with an opportunity cost. Every point of EVs in one stat means that a different stat will not be getting that EV point. Every move selected to one of the four slots means that a different move is not going to be available for use.

With IVs there is no opportunity cost. Selecting one stat to have a 31 IV means nothing to any of the other stats. So it just becomes that every stat should have that 31 IV value, and if you don't have a 31 IV value for that stat, then your pokemon is set at a lower bar from the outset.

It's a trash mechanic.

Its just a remotecontrolled 3ds, it has to sit through the whole trading animation etc, so it isn't faster than a human that would do it manually (but it also isn't much slower). The big advantage is that I can do other stuff while it trades around all day.

As I said a few times, the bot only trades the first person in the list, so if your request hasn't been fulfilled within 3 minutes you can just redeposit and try again. There's currently way more ppl requesting than the bot (or a human) could handle alone, that's why the backlog keeps growing. I wonder how bad the backlog is gonna be when I check tomorrow after a few hours of doing no trades on the bot (I'm scared)

>>30190233
it's case sensitive, but it defaults to adamant if it doesn't find the name in the list, so should be np

Just got one for myself, and a friend.
>>
I deposited mine a half hour ago and still no Ditto. Is something wonky with GTS? Because I've had an anon tell me in an ekx thread that he couldn't see my deposited pokemon.

dropped another ledybaa, fetching a ditto for a friend

Yes, but you may have to re-deposit. It can take a bit.
>>
Gonna kill the bot in half an hour and go to sleep. Gonna decide tomorrow if I'm setting the bot to try and finish the ledybas or if we abandon ledyba and go for a new pokemon

ledyba deposited
IGN: Yoshiko
Message: I want to trade for a Pokemon that is strong in battles.

I put another because the other was traded and it was not shiny :v
>>
>>30191911
just checked on the 3ds, yours is getting traded right now
>>
>>30191871
Please don't use a new pokemon

I went out and caught some for this and haven't been able to get through since
>>
Can I stay connected? Or do I have to disconnect and reconnect to check whether my pokemon got traded?
>>
Yeah, Im not getting trough either, and its been up for a while. Maybe because I got the ledyba trough wonder trade?
>>

if you want to get people hype for the next one you could do a countdown or something.

I came out of this a happy camper. I now have adamant, bold, relaxed, impish, timid, jolly, modest, calm, sassy, and careful dittos at my disposal. Not sure if I feel like I'm a cheater or not but at this point I don't really care, I'm just happy I was here at the right time. Thanks m8

redeposited a 3rd time not having any luck
>>
>>30192172
mikael is that u

the problem with doing a countdown is that it will just get swamped like mad. I don't even want to know how many ledybas will be stuck asking for ditto now on the gts
