carefull is the best nature, but bold isnt bad. and for the other thing, you use curse>wish>baton pass.

and for the evs. i would do with 252 sp def 126 hp and 132 def if the nature is bold.

What does careful + and - and what does bold + and -? what would be good EV's for careful nature?

bold raises def and lowers atk while careful( my umbreons nature ) raises sp def and lower sp atk.

EV spread for a careful one

126 sp def
252 def
126 hp and 6 more in either hp or sp def.

the chances of passing those IV's on the offspring is low, you will be breeding thousands of eggs to obtain those on the offspring since the passing IV's is random chosen ._.

three IV's from their parents pass down to the egg...That's what I remember

Should I use my bold ditto with 31 IV's in HP and 29-30 IV's in defense or my careful natured ditto with 28 IV's in defense and 18-21 IV's in sp. def? Bold right?

yes thats true but like i said, the chances are low for the reason the passing of IV's are "Randomly" chosen.

slimi did you double post on purpose

the chances arent that low. do the math, each parent has 6 stats, 6x2=12 and 3 ivs are passed down, there is a 1 in 6 chance of one of those ivs that slimis ditto has will be passed down so the chances are fairly high. i am pretty sure i did the math right.

I didn't do it on purpose, although I knew I was doing that, but I didn't care either. Not like I want to do it though. Reaper yeah.....

1/6 is equivalent to 16-17% i dont think thats fairly high and EACH stats has 1/6 of passing down to its offspring.meaning theres also 1/6 chance that ditto will pass a CRAPPY IV's to its offsrping, both parents. so if i look the math theres 2/3 chance of passing a crappy IV's to its offsrping and 2/3 as well the RIGHT IV's. more like gambling here ._. depends on your like and how good is ur luck.
