Awesome! That's one of the best natures you can get! Here is data for uxie to hold leftovers:

~ Yawn
~ Stealth Rock
~ U-turn
~ Thunderbolt / Grass Knot / Protect
252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA

This set is all about softening up your opponent and setting up the rest of your team for an eventual sweep. Bring Uxie in on any one of the multitudes of Pokémon that are unable to do appreciable damage to it thanks to its colossal Defense, and use Yawn or Stealth Rock. Your opponent will probably switch to something like Heracross that will force Uxie to flee, but that is just fine. With such great tanking stats, Uxie will be able to switch in repeatedly without difficulty, allowing you to rinse and repeat the Yawn/Stealth Rock process until you have both slept a Pokémon and Stealth Rock is out on the field. At this point, when you bring Uxie out, you can just start using U-turn while your opponent goes to their counter, choosing the appropriate Pokémon each time. Obviously, this set will force a ton a switches, so it works best in concert with Spikes.

The choice of the fourth move depends entirely on what holes need to be covered in your team. Thunderbolt gives Uxie a leg up on Gyarados and Starmie. However, Grass Knot knocks Rhyperior on its behind (Tyranitar is only 4HKOed) while Protect lets you scout Choice Band users, gives you a free pass on the turn Yawn activates, and gives additional Leftovers recovery. Psychic receives STAB and hits Heracross and Infernape, but Psychic attacks are in general liabilities in D/P, and Uxie should try to U-turn out of what Psychic hits anyways.

Thx for the info man ;) I think I might give this guy a try... This tactic looks quite interesting... It's stats might just be able to make it survive a few hits. Thx again

Here is a Mesprit which I just caught a few mins ago but which I didn't keep:

Nature: Modest

IVs:

HP: 24
Atk: 13
Def: 18
Sp.Atk: 23
Sp.Def: 16
Spd: 22

Imo they were to low so I resetted... trying to get one along the lines of 25+/15+/20+/25+/20+/25+ wish me luck lol
 
Celebi, quirky nature. No EVs.
IVs.
HP: 26
A:19
D:14
SA:11
SD:18
S:13
HP:ghost 64

Not great IVs, but it's almost impossible to get good ones on something like a celebi. Good HP, but teaching it shadow ball would be better. It is legit and is for trade at LV. 77 no EVs.You could get a lv. 100 from me, (also no EVs) but it would be harder to trade for.
 
M Bold #138 Omanyte (Shell Armor):
31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 15 (Dark 70)
W/ Spikes, Toxic Spikes, Supersonic, Aurora Beam.
Has perfect Dark HP (Flawless Sp.Atk & BP).
Son of one of my quint Shellders (M Relaxed #90 Shellder (SA): 31 / 12 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 (Dragon 68)), evolved into a Cloyster, and an inbred Bold female Omanyte.
Hooray!

Indeed. It came from day 2 of an intended 10 day project, but I'm thinking of just skipping along to the next of my last three scheduled projects. Still 5 more eggs to hatch, you never know...
 
Lorak set your shop already! lol I want loads of your Pokes.

BTW I hatched this today, in under 20 eggs:

Lickitung - Quiet
31/31/26/31/22/31

Perfect for my intention for it: Choicespecs + Explosion or Sub Punching mix set.
 
Eh heh heh... I only have one major problem: I have no clue what I want, except for Pokemon to use as parents for my own breeding. It seems wrong for me to set up more of a display case and less of a shop...

Well you don't plan on ever battling? That's why I breed, so I can make fun new teams to use over WiFi against people. In any case check my thread for stuff you might like, maybe as parents for your projects, I have a quad, nearly quint flawless male Eevee to be used as a parent. a TCGWC Pikachu which I don't think you have and other stuff. I just want the Duskull.
 
"Trading Card Game World Championship", a.k.a. the Hawaiian-distributed Surfing Pikachu.

Pablo: completely forgot to finish that game. I'm saved before Tangela there. Go for an even more perfect one? :p
 
Keep this Eevee or keep going?

Eevee Timid:
26-28/6-10/18-19/31/28-29/31

Also got this Timid Manaphy
28-29/6-7/6-7/30-31/31/28-29
 
Depends on the nature, but overall I'd ay keep going, if its Timid you really need a Hidden Power to make him useful. If It's Bold it has too low defense, if its Careful for Leafeon or Umbreon or Impish it has too low Attack.
