Hoopa (Timid)
31/x/31/31/31/31
Keep or toss? I'm asking because I'm not sure if timid is viable with Hoopa's low base speed :/

Could be useful. If you have PS or can redeem a second one I'd keep it, personally.
Unfortunately i don't have PS :( And i don't have another code either. I can get another through Maxsoft FB distribution but who knows when that is going to be. And even if i get a code i don't know if it would be tradeable or not :/
Edit:
Would like a couple more opinions before i make my decision.MegaCharizard25 said:
Hoopa-Unbound does go Timid if it doesn't go Jolly or Hasty, so you should keep it if you don't have another nature you'd rather go for.
id keep that too.
edit: matter of fact, cmdeadthread for that. im sring one too and would also be willing to give you the one i get
keroblade
Thanks for the input guys. I've kept it :)
And mattapod I'll cyt after lunch in 15 minutes.
Hey, anyone have a spare HA male Gligar hanging around? Please let me know if you do, or if I fucked up massively and made a faux pas offense or whatever :/.
You've made no offenses. Not a clue why you feel that way - welcome and does it necessarily have to be a male? If not, I have a female Gligar I can give you.
Yeah, on second thought, a female one would be dandy! What do I owe you for it?
please does any one have a chimchar with iron fist ?,ill trade ho-oh for it,fc is 4399 - 1113 - 7908 .
Mixed natures are good for hitting certain targets, but the most classic Xerneas set is Geomancy so if you want the most viable Xerneas, you may as well go for Modest. If you want to go for one with the most trade value (as there are already perfect Modest Xerneas around iirc), HP Ground would probably be really cool even though Xerneas doesn't really need HP Ground. HP Fire is pretty outdated in the ORAS meta, it was more popular during XY but not anymore.
5 IV Modest also works for Scarf sets
Sorry I figured you gave up. You don't owe me anything.

Sweet! Whenever you're ready then
Modest HP Fire for sure
edit: HP ground seems to be better according to the smogon dex

According to the usage stats for Uber players with a ranking of 1760 or higher,
Nature Usage
Modest:184/0/28/252/0/44 9.466% | | Modest:248/0/0/252/8/0 6.328% | | Modest:136/0/28/252/0/92 5.744% | | Modest:0/0/200/252/0/56 4.260% | | Naive:100/4/0/204/0/200 3.466% | | Calm:248/0/8/0/252/0 2.829% | | Other 67.907%
This is the moveset usage:
Moves | | Moonblast 99.740% | | Geomancy 79.694% | | Focus Blast 36.439% | | Aromatherapy 34.188% | | Thunder 26.693% | | Hidden Power Fire 16.951% | | Sleep Talk 13.260% | | Thunderbolt 13.230% | | Rest 11.285% | | Hidden Power Ground 10.792%
I always like to look @ the high ranking usage stats to see what is currently the most popular.
Seems like 5 IV Modest or Modest HP Fire would be the best.
Oh, awesome! Thanks for that information.
5IV Modest or HP Fire Modest seem to be the better/more used ones, though I like the idea of HP Ground if only for its uniqueness when it comes to trade value. I've seen far more HP Fire Xerneas than HP Ground. :)
We'll see, either way. All depends what I eventually get while soft-resetting, haha.
