Thread: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

I have an interesting question that I've been wondering about for a while:

Is it possible to get a red Gyarados that knows Bounce and has a DW ability?

Does anyone know how to get Pokemon to appear in White Forest? I haven't been able to find any Pokemon...

Use the Entralink to connect to a nearby copy of Black and go to Black Forest in it. You'll be able to take people back to your White Forest, and as long as you keep those people from leaving, there are Pokemon to catch there.

So I have to use Entralink first?

To connect to a nearby Black, yes.

I mean just to catch the Pokemon, I need to be connected to EntraLink? this is where having no friends really hurts...

Can I have a Level 1 Pawniward with Psycho Cut, Iron Head, and Night Slash?

If you had a male Bisharp/Pawniard with all three of those moves, the offspring might hatch with them. I'm sorry, but I dunno if it would hatch with them or not. I know that it learns everything but Psycho Cut via level up, though.

To catch them you don't need to be connected at the time, but as your forest is empty, you need to connect to a Black in order to fill it with Pokemon

Not with Bounce, no. But you are able to breed Moxie Gyarados, thus the possibility of a shiny. But the only way for a Moxie Gyarados to have Bounce would be if it came from the DW, and all DW pokemon are set to never be shiny (iirc that is).

If I remember correctly, Bounce is a move tutor move in B2/W2, so you should be able to teach a shiny Moxie Gyarados Bounce.

Okay, thanks for the info!

I just looked it up, and yes, Bounce is one of the move tutor moves in BW2. So that solves everything! Thanks!

I'm making a competive LC team, but I don't understand the EVs for LC. Can someone help me with that?

How exactly do you find Riolu in Sangi Ranch? Does it appear normally, or only at a certain time of day, or only in rustling grass or something?

Normally, but it's very rare.
