Surely no MTG players actually think they're 'hardcore' in any aspect of their lives. Surely they don't form a band of equally misled MTG players where they talk about how 'hardcore' it is to let their lives be dictated by a single piece of the color pie. Surely they don't pass up their family duties to run off to FNM while their kids are neglected at home.Surely they aren't over the age of 25, paunchy, and overly sensitive about relationships with women? Surely they don't all make gay jokes under the guise of being straight, secure-in-their-sexuality-men, do they??Magic players who think thier 'hardcore'

once inside a thrift shop dreary, while i browsed there, weak and weary,
over many a quaint and curious greatcoat of forgotten bore—
while I nodded, puissance sapping, suddenly there came a yapping,
as of some one whitely rapping, rapping at my bargain store—
“‘tis some visitor,” i muttered, “rapping at my bargain store—
only this and macklemore.”
ah, distinctly i remember, in the middle of december;
this repurposed clothing vendor with its off-white tiled floor.
jimmy kimmel’s show tomorrow, vainly i had sought to borrow
from his guests, surcease of sorrow — sorrow for my latest score —
for the glorious designer jeans too wide around my core —
here to lie forever more.
and the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of the faded curtains
thrilled me — filled me with desire to spend as never spent before;
so that now, to cease the clamour, wallet clenched as if a hammer —
"tis some visitor entreating entrance
at this bargain store —
"some late visitor entreating entrance at my bargain store —
"only this and macklemore."
presently as it continued, drawing at my patience’ sinew,
with no answer from the clerk whose cares departed long before,
for the fact is, she was napping, sleeping through this tiresome rapping
though my patience it was sapping from my place upon the floor,
till no longer i could bear it, and i threw open the door —
darkness there, and nothing more.

IV's are like another +points to a stat
like a 31 attack means +31 more points towards attack.
@cole the guy getting hit was being a cockhole, an asshole, a douchebag, I.E. typical arrogant magic player behavior

serious note for a second:maybe if you taught me a thing or two dadfucking casual as fuck.I do. My mon are ev trained. still don't knowdo you even EV train?everybody take a look at pyramid head cole
what IV is all about though
it's not like there are endless tutorial vids and articles available to me on the web
IVs are non-modifiable (after you have the pokemon) base stat enhancers that range from 0-31. you can manipulate a pokemon's IVs by breeding. without items, two parents mate and 3 random IVs between the parents are passed on, while 3 more are randomly generated. in X and Y, one parent holding the Destiny Knot while in the day care will allow 5 IVs between the two parents (so 5 of 12) to be passed on to the child. When breeding, you start with two pokemon with at least 1 perfect IV from the father to pass on to the child that the mother doesn't have, then replace the mother with the child with the new set of perfect IVs and the father with one that has a different perfect IV, and repeat that process until you've taken care of all 5 relevant
IVs (or hold out until that 6th IV is randomly generated as 31).
Additionally, you can manipulate this further by having one of the parents with the nature you want to hold an Everstone which guarantees the baby will have that nature. Power items also cause the representative stat to be passed on 100% (though IIRC this gets overwritten by Knot? or the other 4 IVs are randomly chosen and the Power item IV 100% passes? I'm past the point of needing this when I breed/don't breed for hidden power so it's mostly irrelevant).
Mother's ability has an 80% of passing on to the child. A father breeding with a ditto has a 60% chance of passing. This is relevant if the pokemon you have has a particular ability you want out of two abilities or if you're trying to pass a Hidden Ability from horde or friend safari pokemon.

friend safari pokemon have at least 2 IVs that are always perfect (and baby pokemon like riolu and mime jr always have at least 3), so breeding in this game is easier than it's ever been and usually you can breed a pokemon whose stats are perfect in a few hours depending on how lucky the RNG is for you.
