Breeding

No.14835825 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Does /vp/ have any suggestions on how to breed for a perfect pokemon?

Now that Friend Safaris have dittos with 2 guaranteed perfect IVs, I don't think catching dittos with 4 perfect IVs is too far fetched, but the question is whether or not I can get a ditto with 5 or more perfect IVs.
Is there any way to get a ditto with 5 or more perfect IVs other than getting extremely lucky in Friend Safari?

Destiny Knot guarantees up to 5 IVs to be passed on by either parent (regardless of who is holding Destiny Knot), meaning if both parents have a 31 Speed IV, there is a 5/6 chance it will be passed on.

>Catch a parent in safari with the nature you want and 2 of the 4 perfect IVs that the ditto has
>Breed for an offspring with a 3rd IV and same nature (using a ditto with Destiny Knot and the parent with Everstone)
>Take that offspring and breed for a 4th IV and same nature (using a ditto with Destiny Knot and the parent with Everstone)

If the pokemon can't be caught in the safari, you would have to start from the 1st IV, meaning the braclets more effective initially.

Is there any point that you would rather start using one of the braclets over destiny knot after the 2nd IV?
