Fletchling was my easiest one, it was the only that didn't require egg moves. I have to breed Outrage on Gible and Stealth Rock and Leech Seed on Ferroseed now.

I am in the middle of a chain breeding project to get Ice Punch onto a Scraggy, because it's a huge pain this gen. None of Scraggy's parents get Ice Punch by level-up, so the burden falls to Smeargle. But this raises another problem, there aren't any wild Pokemon with Ice Punch, and everything that gets it by level-up will one-shot a wild Smeargle. So the burden falls to breeding Ice Punch onto something weak (in my case Hitmonchan giving it to Abra), using that to Ice Punch a wild Smeargle, catch that Smeargle, and then use that Smeargle to breed with the Scraggy.

I've just bred my 6 IV Timid Gastly. Planning to breed a Gale Wing Fletchling but I don't have either Adamant/Jolly Synchronizer. So I will start breeding some Ralts first for a side project.

so is the first time I'm doing IV breeding, so correct me if I'm wrong so I got an pokemon with 2 perfect IV's in PS and attack that it inherited from a ditto if I want to get a perfect pokemon, or at least one with 5IVs I must now get a ditto with perfect IVs in other stats (defense and speed, for example) and breed it with it and hope to get an egg that inherits the IVs for speed, attack, PS and defense then doing it again with another ditto that has IVs in sp.Atk and sp.Def right?

One you have an egg that is inheriting everything but the stat you don't care about, you just need to swap the parents (if you have the right ones) and the same IVs will be inherited, but they time from parents with 31 in them.
If you have a lot of 2/3/4 IV parents, you can use this to get a flawless Pokemon very quickly.

Doing the method detailed there, I just got a child with the EXACT same stats as the previous one. I don't think that's right.
Wouldn't it be smarter to save right before I take an egg, since the IVs are determined when he gives the egg to you? Or am I just horribly misinformed, and the IVs are decided when HE gets the egg?
I'm probably overthinking too much of this. Would you mind further clarifying?

>>15519580 So should I save before rejecting it, instead of after, then? If I save after, then I just saved after the IVs were determined, meaning that they'll be exactly the same every time.
Anonymous
>>15519427 No, you're supposed to switch the parents out.
Say you have a father with IVs of : A/B/C/D/E/F
And a mother with IVs of: U/V/W/X/Y/Z
You have a savepoint that is directly after you reject their first egg, but before they make another egg.
You take their egg, hatch it, the child has IVs of: A/r/V/D/E/Z
It has inherited HP, SpA and SpD from its father, and Defense and Speed from its mother. It doesn't matter what their actual values are, all that's important is that they inherited certain stats.
Now, you reset your game, and swap the parents in the daycare center for a father with IVs of: 31/x/x/31/31/x and a mother with IVs of: x/x/31/x/x/31 (I'm not sure if they still need the Destiny Knot and Everstone, but I think so).
Now ride around until you get an egg. This egg will be 31/r/31/31/31/31. For some reason, the IV inheritance is the same even with different parents.
Anonymous
>>15519659 But then what's the point of the method? If you save before you'd be getting a random inheritance every time. Might as well just breed normally.

Quoted By:
>>15519717 Its best if you prep a bunch of parents beforehand

If that person was using the Masuda Method, I do actually believe that this won't work if the swapped parents have a different OT (trainer), e.g. if you masuda with a foreign Pokemon and then swap it out with one of your own Pokemon, it'll break and you'll get a random IV inheritance (and no shiny).

I managed to breed two 5IV Eevees today. The whole process took me a day and a half, but it was exciting for me since I'd never bred for IVs in my life. They are both Modest so I guess that means they won't be optimal..? But I'm not bothered since I just wanted to experiment with the limited Friend Safaris I had. Considering I didn't have access to FS Ditto and the pokemon I was breeding had such and abysmal F:M rate, I'm pleased with my result.

Ask in a trade thread and see if someone has one they're willing to trade you, usually there are euro/NA/Aus people all on 4chan this time of night.
