Hello!

As you all know, Jirachis are now available to get off the internet. I have been SRing all afternoon whilst watching some Pokemon MD Explorers of sky (I LOVE that bit where Lapras 'flies' to the hidden land - music is beautiful; nearly cried)

I have a Jirachi with these IVs. Should I keep it?
Adamant nature 18/31/31/22/30/31
Moveset will probably be the standard iron head, zen headbutt, fire/ice/drain punch/u-turn
It will be for competitive use (But not VGC)

Ideally I was after a Jolly nature but I could scarf it. I'm a tad reluctant to scarf it as I have always had a distaste for the choice items - Don't like being locked into a move; Give me assault vest any day - but I could make an exception here as I could just flinch them into the distortion world.

Should I keep SRing? I can be very patient when it comes to SR - I was SRing for last month's Celebi for ages. Someone had to powersave me a Celebi (Thanks if you're reading this!) I eventually SR'd a legit Celebi with a good nature and IVs but took AGES - Bloomin' Time-travelling vegetables, am I right?

What do you guys think? Helpful replies would be appreciated and I will give rep for them.
I will keep my 3DS on and not save until a conclusion has been reached.

Keep trying

I got jolly with -decent- iv's in about 10 SR's, so i must have been lucky. I'd say keep trying

[SnowdustWolf]

Okay then. I will keep SRing

I'm on my 3DS internet right now where it's a pain to give rep. I will give you guys rep tomorrow

Thanks for your help!

[Oddish 4 ever]

I keep 4-6 iv pokes for battle resort (though i rarely get 6ivs)

[w2gMk]

I'd go until I get the right nature with full 31 iv's of the most essential iv's for the set you'd like to run. For instance my jirachi is a SpD wish pass set, so I sr til I got at least hp, def, SpD, and Spe. Damage in my case isnt a required thing. Just go for the most essential stats required for your set, being HP, Att, and Spe, ifyou get more, great! \o/
