    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

I'm ready to trade whenever you are; does 5:30 PM EST today work for you? If not, we can reschedule, or if you're online earlier and I am as well, we can trade then.

Edit: Looks like you're not online, so... how about you name a time and I'll try my best to make it?

What about 9:00 tonight EST?
 
Done. I'll see you then.

Edit: It looks as though we've managed to miss each other. Ordinarily I'd wait longer, but it would appear that everyone on the planet (or at least in my house) wants on this computer at the moment, so I'm afraid you'll have to name a new time.

So, after quite a lot of waiting for the RNG to stop hating on me, I've finally gotten a larvitar I'm satisfied with out of my Emerald version. What does this have to do with anything? Well, I've decided that, to help other people out with their team building and breeding projects in the future, I'd offer up some of the spitbacks I got in the process.

These larvitar were deemed not good enough for me to use, but they could be useful to others for breeding purposes. They all have at least two perfect IV's in a variety of combinations, they all know dragon dance (unless otherwise noted), and come in a few different natures, although they're mostly adamant.

However, these larvitar did take a bit of work to breed, and so if you're going to offer me something for one of them, please make it something worthwhile. Ideally, something else you have that would be good for breeding of a different species. And when I say "good for breeding," I do mean IV's. However, if you do not have anything matching this description, let me know that you're interested and I'll see if I can arrange something.

I would expect something better for the better larvitar; these are arranged in hatch-order within the nature groups, so quality generally increases as you move down the list.

I have a few other pokémon like this in storage; eventually, I'll go back and re-check their IV's to make them available as well. Larvitar is just the first group where I've bothered to keep track of more than the final individual(s).

Also, slightly reorganized the first post.

I'm kinda interested in this guys here, I've got two Bold Eevee with Wish (Lv.10, both male) that I could trade. The IV's are as follows:

1: 20-29/20-29/0-9/10-19/10-19/0-9
2: 0-9/20-29/20-29/20-29/20-29/20-29

Admittedly, they might not be all that useful themselves although they could be used as breeding fodder.
 
Mmm... do you have anything with any perfect IV's anywhere? I'm afraid that 30's and 31's are really the only things good for breeding.
 
Unfortunately, I don't think so. :/ Actually, come to think of it, I could probably spare a Trick Room TM, and I've got a few spare rare candies lying around.
 
No, sorry; if you were to, say, EV train about three pokémon for me, that would be more appropriate, if you don't have anything good for breeding to offer.
 
What sort of Pokémon are you looking to have trained in exchange for this sort of thing, exactly? Kind of interested in the Lonely and Quiet Larvitar and so I figured I'd ask. (Unless there's anything else you'd want... eh, I really don't keep track of the IVs of Pokémon I'm not actively using, either. D:)

Provided you gave me the Pokemon that need training, sure, I could probably do that.
 
Would x# of Heart Scales get me a male Ursaring of any level with adamant nature and high attack and speed IVs? You don't have to EV train or level him.

Also, is a Protector fair trade for a Lucky Egg? (If not what might be?)

Well, the larvitar I'll be keeping, for one. I also have a little gray bird with which you may be familiar. If you want two larvitar, I'd trade the second for your shiny jolly riolu.

Provided you gave me the Pokemon that need training, sure, I could probably do that.
Okay, then, if you're okay with two pokémon to EV train, I'll trade them to you for collateral, then do an IV battle against you to make sure they have the right EV spread before trading back. That sound fine?

I'm afraid I'm not going to IV breed for some Underground items, no. Protector for lucky egg is fine, though.

And finally, some new additions: shiny cubone! In four exciting flavors:

Adamant [M] Cubone <Lightningrod>: 29 / 0 - 9 / 0 - 9 / 9 / 25 - 28 / 5 - 7

Lax [M] Cubone <Lightningrod>: 13 - 14 / 27 / 10 - 19 / 0 - 3 / 25 - 27 / 10 - 13

Careful [M] Cubone <Lightningrod>: 31 / 13 - 14 / 0 - 9 / 20 - 29 / 13 - 14 / 2 - 4

Mild [M] Cubone <Rock Head>: 0 - 9 / 13 - 14 / 10 - 19 / 20 - 29 / 31 / 16 - 17
 
Riolu and trained Larvitar and Starly is fine by me (as long as I don't have to evolve it for you >.<). Thankfully I think I already have a spare clone of the Riolu, too. Just let me know the spreads you want and when you're ready to trade; any time after about 3 pm today should work, for one thing.
 
Also: What might you be looking for for a Light Ball? I have a few more evolutionary items, like the Metal Coat, or Reaper Cloth (though I'd prefer the former).

I'll be on tonight if I can make it then, for at least the egg.
 
Okay; my brother's been tending to hog the computer a lot in the evenings recently, but I'll try to be on by around 9:00-9:30 EST. Also, metal coat is fine for a light ball.
 
Sometime later this evening, post-ten PM EST, I would think. Otherwise, name a time tomorrow (Saturday) and I'll see what I can do.
 
Um,I've gotta go to a resturaunt tonight,45 min drive just to get there,plus we have to eat,so it'd be a good hour-and-a-half/two hours before we get home,and I can't seem to figure out what time we'll be home,*coughmysisterwontcooperatecough* and a birthday party tommorrow,ends at one,so one-thirty(1:30) tommorrow EST OK with you?
EDIT:We aren't going after all!How about in,like ten to twenty minutes so I can do my chores?
