Okay so I'm going to go over things you've already said with different formating and hypothetical numbers as well. Hope you don't mind some algebra lol.
For stats assume that x doesn't stand for the same number but simply for any unknown number from the parent's stats. Assume that y doesn't stand for the same number, but simply for any unknown number except it was generated randomly for the offspring and not inherited. And assume that i stands for the highest unknown value on a particular pokemon
So you're going for a:
Gardevoir
gender: male or female
stats: 31/x/31/31/31/31
nature: Modest
ability: Trace
move a
move b
move c
move d
And what you have to breed are
Gardevoir
gender: female
stats: x/x/x/31/x/31
nature: Modest
ability: Trace
move a
move b
move c
move d
and
Gardevoir
gender: male
stats: i/i/i/x/i/x
nature: Modest
ability: Trace
move a
move b
move c
move d
You have the female holding a everstone which causes the offspring to have a 50% chance to have modest nature and 50% for any other nature. You have the male hold destiny bond which causes the offspring to inherit 5 out of 6 IVs from their parents.
Now from how this works let's say that the offspring gets 3 of its IVs from its mother and 2 from its father. From its mother it gets HP, Special Attack, and Special Defense. From its father it gets Special Defense and Speed.
The stats would then be as followed for the offspring
x / y / y / 31 / i / x
Now what this means is that the baby has completely random numbers in HP, Attack, and Defense while having relatively high numbers in Special Defense and Speed while also having a perfect Special Attack IV.
Because it inherited Speed from both its parents, the one the game took IVs from last (lets assume the father) overwrites the IV from the parent that passed its IVs down first.
In this case x could be any value from 1 to 30 (assume the judge didn't describe a stat as terrible which means it has a value of 0), y could be any value from 0-31, and i could be any value between certain numbers depending on what the judge described the father's best stats as ("rather decent" being from 1 to 15 unless he described all the stats as terrible which makes them all 0, "good" being from 16 to 25, and fantastic being from 26 to 30).
In this particular random scenario the offspring actually inherits less stats than what the mother has because of the father's Speed overwriting the mother's perfect IV Speed.
So if you have a ditto or male pokemon in the same egg group as raltz that does have at least 1 perfect IV you might want to stick with that pokemon for increased chances of passing on more perfect IVs, rather than using the male raltz that simply has several high (but not perfect) stats.
I hope this helps. Another tip, if you weren't aware, is that Diantha does trade you a level 1 female raltz holding Gardevoirite with 20/20/20/31/20/31. I wouldn't be surprised if you already knew that though.
