Two questions, repeating one from the last thread. What nature for Bibarel, Hawlucha, Talonflame? Adamant or jolly? I'm stuck on what nature and ability to use for Gardevoir and Gallade. I'm thinking timid and adamant, respectively, but only trace seems useful for Gardevoir and Gallade's abilities suck.

If you need the special bulk to cover another poke's weaknesses use assault vest, if you don't have any choiced pokes use the band. One isn't really objectively better than the other.

A few questions about replays/battles: 1. Is there any way to download and save videos from other players? 2. Is there any way to change the music used in Wifi/BM battles after the replay has been recorded? 3. Is there a way to unlock more music tracks for Battle Maison? I noticed Wifi has ~10-12 while BM only has 4. 4. Is there a guide to what each track is? Music 1, Music 2, etc... isn't very descriptive and I noticed a few of them were the Gym Leader/Rival battle themes.

Have one parent be of the most desirable nature, and have that parent hold an everstone. What you should do is get a timid-natured Ralts, breed it and its offspring with different Ditto until you get a timid male with near-perfect IVs, and breed THAT with Gardevoir.

>>15749128 Not exactly.
If you ran teams based on luck (quick claws, double-team + brightpowder, OHKO moves) you'd get lucky as often as they do.
Problem is, statistically, that means you'll lose more than you win, and you'll almost CERTAINLY lose sometimes.
Luck is useless when you have to maintain a win-streak. So here we have a format where the player has to win 100 times in a row, and the AI can lose 97 times and win the 98th time, and the player still essentially LOSES.
They have 100 more chances than you have to try stupid, luck-based strategies.
Imagine Battle Maison got a laddering system, where your score was determined by who had the most wins, you vs each of the 100 AIs you faced. You'd OBLITERATE them because they're all running shit strategies. But they don't need to win consistently, ONLY YOU do. They just need any lucky break at any point.
The format is rigged; the mechanics aren't. Best you can do is try to play bulky offense, which mitigates the usefulness of MOST of their luck-based strategies, simply because extending the number of turns a match lasts extends the number of opportunities for their strategy to draw an unlucky RNG value and their team to get buttfucked.
Nothing mitigates Sheer Cold though, so best to make it a bulky all-out offense where every mon is essentially of the same role, so losing one doesn't completely destroy you.
Or go play Battle Institute because it isn't streak-based and is therefore way more fair.

>>15749192 There's no reason to presume it cheated in older gens, either.
The closest one might come to calling the AI a cheater was that it knew in advance that Fire Fang hit through Wonder Guard and so would use it on WonderTombs, and that's TECHNICALLY "cheating" because the AI's knowledge of the mechanics is based on checking the code rather than reading descriptions.
But seeing as how that could only ever have happened when the player flagrantly cheated ANYWAY it doesn't prove much.

If you need a substitute, Earthquake works unless you really need your ground move to be special.
