What has Luc been doing for the past few days...?
22I don't care if this video has a thumbnail or not, it's just going to be here to explain some stuff. (with anger)
First of all, I do have dittos to do the Masuda method, yes. But before anyone says "ditto's make the Masuda method easier" no, they don't. The Masuda method can be done as long as the Pokemon is from another region. Pokemon are produced even FASTER if the Pokemon is of the same species AND has a different ID (Eggs are produced at a rate of 70% instead of 50%)
I have been doing this for 6 days (today marks day 7) and the video... will explain the rest... if you feel like watching... I'm tired now so... yeah...
Also, depending on if I get a shiny or not, I will stream tonight. If I don't stream, blame Masuda ok? Ok.
Edit:
Since it came back all jumbled in the comments section... I'll just put it here instead so it looks better.
Yes, the stats of Greninja have an 8 point difference, but Base Stats aren't the only things you need to worry about. You need to remember Base Power of the moves *themselves* as well.
Physical:
Water Shuriken: Base Power 30-75 (would have given it Waterfall instead with 80 BP and chance for flinching since Greninja is already fast and doesn't need priority, plus this may only attack twice and only do 30 Base Power... which is a bit pathetic)
Night Slash: BP 70
Rock Slide: BP 75 (Hits both opponents)
U-Turn: BP 70
Special:
Surf: 90 BP (Hits everything on field)
Extrasensory: 80 BP
Dark Pulse: 80 BP
Ice Beam: 90 BP (Blizzard having 110 BP if you feel more lucky, as well as hits double opponents)
If you notice, a lot of the special attacks have more BP to them, and by more, it can be between 10-20. Add that in with the little more of a boost with Special attacks, and that may be a life or death situation with stats.
Plus, with me being a double battler more than 75% of the time... I'd want at least ONE GOOD move that could hit more than 1 Pokemon... and Surf is more reliable than Rock Slide for that...
