Eric Neustadter, the first person to create an Xbox gamer tag and the former architect and operations manager of Xbox Live during its formative years, has joined one of the Pokemon companies (probably TPCi) as their VP of Technology.

Also, I'm just guessing which company, because he only put @Pokemon when he said where he got a job at.

In other news, Alomomola received the suspect test treatment in RU. Chances are, it will be sent to the realm of BL2, just like many other Pokemon before.

I like Spiritomb a lot, and it's equal parts dank and spoop. I want to raise one but I don't have one with the hidden ability and I want that.

But Drapion is my favorite Pokemon and it IS a Dark type, even if I'm more interested in its Poison traits.

I think that for breeding abilities, the mother's ability is a 100% guarantee on the baby, while the father's isn't.

The dad rule applies even while using a Ditto, I believe. Though hidden abilities are a lower chance, so you will still go through a lot of eggs.

Though you might have better success finding hidden abilities in the wild. Even if you come across a male, I think the offspring is still more likely to inherit the fathers ability than being randomized if Ditto'd.

Though it's been a while since I bred anything, so don't quote me on this.

I know fully well how to breed Pokemon. I've been raising entire boxes of optimized Pokemon for years.

I just don't have a HA Spiritomb and do not have the means to acquire one.

If the mother has a Hidden Ability, there's a 60% chance of it being passed down.

If the mother is a Ditto and the father has a Hidden Ability, there's like a 40% chance of it being passed down.

Dangit, all the pokemon I want to use in Tier Shift are getting suspect tested.

Also, if Regigigas had Intimidate as its hidden ability, would it be in Ubers or OU, do you think?

THEN WHY TH-er, I mean. Why do they still have it only have such a terrible ability?

Regigigas without Slow Start is ridiculously strong. 100 speed, true, but then you have 110/110/110 defenses to back the massive 160 attack, a diverse movepool, and a single weakness.

OU probably. Remember, Black Kyurem is there JUST due to lacking the moves and having to go mixed. Regigigas could go Return/Knock Off/Drain Punch out of 160 base Attack.

So, here's a question- Suppose Regigas only needs to endure one or two turns of Slow Start's effects, and upon being lifted, not only does it get its stats set properly, but it gets a free Dragon Dance effect on top?

I sure said that!
