Hi everyone
Thank you once again to all of you for your support in getting me up to date with breeding. Shout out to Hazama for being an absolute beast Pokemon trainer.

Anyway guys, quick question, what is the easiest way to get a Pokemon with 5 perfect iv's to 6 perfect iv's. i have a ditto with 6 perfect iv's holding a destiny knot and have a gastly with 5 perfect iv's with an everstone to pass down its nature, but i keep getting 5 iv Pokemon with a bad speed stat. the other gastly doesn't have a perfect speed stat but has everything else perfect, do i just keep going until i find a perfect one or do i breed until i get a gastly with perfect speed stat and then keep breeding until i am lucky?

i get that their base stats are different, but IV wise as far as i am aware it is possible to get a flawless pokemon with 31 in each isn't it? - i just dont know how to pass on the good speed stat from the ditto to the ghastly, cause i need the destiny knot on him.

From what I know, some pokemons cannot have 6ivs... The only pokemon that I know that can't have 6 perfect Ivs is Honedge..

its pure luck for the 6iv poke. just keep trying buddy and eventually you will get it. 5iv and 6iv pokemon/ you have 1/31 chance your wild card iv will be perfect/

alright fair enough, so just keep breeding the 5 iv gastly with the 6 iv ditto, keep the destiny knot on ditto and then just keep breeding over and over with the everstone on the gastly. its annoying i think i could use a power bracelet or whatever it is for speed but obviously that would mess it up. ill just keep trying
