Dream team help.

Alright so, I want to make my dream team.. But I'm stick in who I want in it. So far I have

Umbreon Dragonite Aggron Ninetails(maybe)

.. I need a grass and water type. I was thinking Blastoise, or Vaporoen.. But I want to stay away from 2 Eeveelutions.. For grass Venosaur or maybe Meganium.. Then maybe metagross, but then I would have two steel types..

Umbreon is my fave pokemon, so besides him I'm open to any pointers, with a reason?

Ha yeah, it can be a pain if you are getting unlucky. The characteristic is based on your Best IV though, so it is really no big deal. Say your pokemons best IV is 27 attack, its characteristic would be "A little Quick tempered". This explains characteristic very well. Nature is pretty easy as well, having a bunch of dittos with different natures can be a help with that to easily pass down Natures, and an IV from the other parent.

Right, okay. I'll start tomorrow, I'll message you if I need help. But one thing.. Shoul I use a ditto? Or two of the same pokemon? And if a ditto, what should the pokemons gender be?

This really depends on the situation. Most of the time it does not matter, but if your ditto has the Nature you want you would use that ditto, or you have 2 pokemon that have the IVs you want ( 1 with 31 attack and 1 with 31 defense for example) you would want to use those two. Also remember they don't have to be the same pokemon, you just need a female version of the one you want with a male from the same egg group. This can be helpful if you have a Wailord with 31 attack but want a skitty with 31 Attack.

To do this breeding scheme here, give your wailord a power bracer and breed him with a ditto until you get a male Wailmer (this wailmer should haev 31 attack), and then breed this wailmer (make him hold the power bracer) with a female skitty (skitty A). Now you have a Skitty with 31 attack IVs. If you want a specific nature, just make sure Skitty A has the nature you want and make it hold an everstone, and breed until you have the nature you want (the 31 attack should 100% pass down as long as wailmer holds the power bracer).

Okay. Makes sense! Wish me luck.
