Just find a teir with a bunch of pokemon you like in. Copy paste some smogon move sets and adjust so it isn't shit.

Does anyone have the latest verison of the Breeding Guide Image /vp/ makes? Google has results but their outdated.

I just got my X game for Christmas and wanted to know how to breed properly.

I doubt they're outdated, it's been around for more than a year. Breeding hasn't evolved since then.

>Get a female of the pokemon that you want to use
>Get a flame body pokemon to use for breeding, and use hatching O power 3 whenever you breed
>Breed it with various male pokemon to get egg moves (list of them is on serebii)
>Breed the result with a ditto of the nature you want (give that ditto an everstone)
>breed the result with a 6 perfect IV ditto (give everstone to pokemon, destiny knot to the ditto)
>check with IV breeder until you get the mon with all the IVs you need
>done

There's nothing else to it, unless we're talking EVs as well.

Showdown, and showdown

Battle Spot isn't bound by smogon rules so people will use whatever they want, so if you want to play in tiers you either have to arrange the rules of engagement beforehand (like on /vp/ or something) or battle on a sim where smogon rules are in play

Just go to the site and watch some battles, preferably higher rated but even low rated can give you some good info, like what plays you shouldn't make.

Play random battles on showdown. Im serious.

No one will care about your elo, But randbats will help you get you good at predictions and switches and all the mind games which is in my opinion the toughest part.

Then work on your teambuilding, Smogon is a good introduction to sets and teambuilding, but it helps to be more original sometimes as the some sets there a very predictable.

Once you get your penta-perfect pokemon from the method stated in >>22337680 , you can tailor it to suit your needs with 510 EV points. This is the max - you can't get any more.

Each stat can take 252 of those EV points. Dumping EV points into a stat increases it.

Pic related is how you can tell how many EV points your pokemon has. It's a standard set greninja.

You get EV points through super training, items like protein (although they stop working once you have 100 in a stat), and by battling pokemon.
