Any easy way of getting Trevenant with hidden ability and correct nature?

3 minute read

I wanted this Trevenant for my team (Yes, it’s surprisingly good) but I don’t have the friend safari option. Hordes is one way, though troublesome, but is there any easier way?

Tips on how to make breeding easier! If this is what you mean.

First of all, breeding natures. If you give a Pokemon aneverstonewhilst in the day-care, the will be a100% chance of the offspring having the same naturein X and Y (in previous Generations it was a 50% chance). So if you have a female Trevenant and male Pokemon in the same egg group with the right nature, give the male an everstone, put them in the Day-care, and the baby Phantump will have your wanted nature!

These are the Pokemon in Trevenants egg group:http://pokemondb.net/mechanics/egg-groups/amorphous

And of course how to get multiple everstones, if they were accidentley sold:http://m.youtube.com/index?&desktop_uri=/#/watch?v=ucVksE8Ghy8

Now the abilities. If the Pokemon already has a hidden ability in the day-care, then there will be a 33% chance that that is what the off-springs ability will be, there is no definate way to ensure the right ability, but about 1/3 isn’t bad.

If the Pokemon in the Day-Care has a normal ability (like natural cure) there is no chance at all that the off-spring will have the hidden ability, and in Trevenant’s case there will be a 50% chance that the offspring will have will have natural cure, and a 50% chance of it having frisk.

A you said, Pokemon in hordes hve a slight chance that Pokemon will be caught with there hidden ability, but if you bring along a Pokemon withsweet scentthen when used out of battle you will encounter a horde 100% of the time, if you can find hordes there.

Just as an extra, IV breeding. if the Pokemon in the Day-Care is holding aDestiny Knot, then the off-spring will have 5 random IV stats carried down to the off-spring from it’s parents. Pokemon found in the Friend Safari have 2 perfect IV stats, but I know you don’t have that option. Also,a power item(when given to the Pokemon in the day-care) will garrentee the transfer of that IV stat.

For example: if you were to give the Pokemon in the Daycare aPower Weight, then the offspring will have the same HP IV stat of it’s parent who held that item.

I have phantump in the friend safari, so if you want my friend code tell me in the comments section down below.

Otherwise, I would have to resort to finding and catching a horde Pokemon with the hidden ability, using the power items to boost IVs whilst trying to get the right nature (when you do give it an everstone) and hope for the best!

Hope this helped!

Nope.Despite what the other answers state, there isn’t an easier way to get a Harvest Trevenant through breeding. You don’t just get a hidden ability, the mother(or father, if breeding with Ditto)needs to have the HA or else the offspring has no chance of getting said HA.

Say I have a Female Lickitung with Cloud Nine(Hidden Ability)and a Male Torterra with Overgrow. If I breed those two, I’ll have a chance of getting a Cloud Nine Lickitung.

If I have a Female Lickitung with Oblivious and a Male Torterra with Overgrow and breed them, there isno chance at allto get a Cloud 9 Lickitung.

As for your Trevenant problem, there isn’t an easier way besides hordes and Friend Safari. If you want to go the latter route, sift throughthis threadand find a Phantump Friend Safari.

As for catching the Phantump, catch an Abra with your desired nature and Synchronize. Synchronize increases the chance of encountering wild Pokmeon with the same nature as the Abra if it’s in the lead spot. Ralts is another good Synchronizer, being rare on Route 4 in red/yellow flowers.

After catching the Phantump/Trevenant with Harvest, evolve it if you have to andbonjour!You have your very own Harvest Trevenant with a good nature.

There is no other way unless you have someone breed a trevenant with another Pokemon and have them breed it until it has its hidden ability. Otherwise, there is no other way except hordes and friend safari.
