Hi,

Regardless of whether or not I use the PID Finder, the bility of the Pokemon switched when it evolves. For example when my Lotad with swift swim evolved to Lombre the ability switches to rain dish. Anyt thoughts?

Regards,

Don't use the PID finder for Gen 5 Pokemon.

The PID is calculated differently for them. As we've said many times around the forums, leave the PID field blank for gen 5 Pokemon if you need a valid PID.

What do I do then if I want to make a flawless Pokémon using PokéGen? As far as I know you have to use the PID finder to specify IVs - if you simply type the IVs into the boxes on the Stats tab, will the game always create a valid PID, still?

Only for B/W, use the PID finder for gen 4 Pokemon
