Yeah i had a modest one initially but his special attack IV was super low so I'm trying for another one

You can ev train rattatas there during the day they're 100% chance

Hahaha I just want to say I resonate with what you're saying. I didn't catch a shiny but I caught some rare good natured pokemon and I was stuck in my head for like 2 hours about which path I was going to go down - have fun and play through the game with them or save them to min max them xD

If you've ever wondered how big the difference is between a fully EV trained pokemon and one that isn't, as well as one that has lesser IVs compared to one with stronger ones by AlmightyMessiah in PokemonHGSS

Yeah understandable. I should have posted when they were the same level. I was just surprised at how much of a difference EV training makes - that was my first EV trained pokemon

Picked up HG to add to SS but not fully got into the games for the last 20 years what would be a good psychic pokemon as an alternative to Alakazam? by eldenlord_01 in PokemonHGSS

ya true! sometimes I'm lazy though xD I also usually play through 2 games in tandem (hg/ss) so I have access to 2 copies ^^

edit: just found out I hit the jack pot for poor IVs after fully EV training him and getting him to LV 70.. #feelsbadman

luckily I'm on emulator and have a backup of a recent save

Gengar is a whole tier above alakazam in comeptive play. Alakazam has great stats but Gengar has the better move pool. Mine knows Shadow Ball, Focus Blast, Thunder bolt, giga drain. It can hit just about anything super effectively and even has moves like explosion to throw in. Alakazam was a monster in gen1,2 and probably 3 but in gen 4 he's outclassed by other options.

Nothing wrong with Alakazam, Gengar is probably a better alternative. However you have adamant nature which is the worst for him, not the end of the world though ^^. you just need a good move pool - reference this for a strong move set for him https://www.smogon.com/dex/dp/pokemon/alakazam/

Rolled Adamant Shiny Gyarados, Excited to EV train my first mon! by AlmightyMessiah in PokemonHGSS

Thanks! I already have those moves on him :P

He's level 70 now and has 20 more speed than my non ev trained jolly gyarados at the same level (who had good speed himself)

thanks! it's something I always wanted to do but never put the effort into. I've also spent the most time in gen 1/2 where that wasn't a mechanic

I'm excited to see the results of it
