What happens if you give a Destiny Knot to a female pokemon? For example, if you have a female 5IV Talonflame and a 4IV male Fletchinder, will the IVs still be passed down?
EDIT: Does it matter which parent you give the Destiny Knot to?

As Bulbapedia states:
So no, it doesn't matter which parent holds it.
What's important in breeding is that the parent with the Nature you want to pass down has to held a Everstone. So the other one will necessarily held Destiny Knot.
