In Pokemon Dream World when you have two areas unlocked, what is the chance of being sent to either of them?

Ie: a 50/50 chance or is there an outside factor?

But the only viable users of it are Raticate and Bibarel (Pachirisu wtf). Could maybe work on a tanking Bibarel set. And taking 50% out of Blissey has gotta hurt.

Deoxys EV spread is poor. 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe Timid is the spread.

Heatran needs Fire Blast, especially if you're running Timid. Flamethrower just doesn't cut it on Scarf sets.
