Why is the player character such a drama queen when he loses? A dramatic re-enactment of whenever you lose a battle: "[Player] is out of useable Pokémon!" "[Player] turned over [some PokéDollars] to the winner". (Thank goodness it's not HALF YOUR FREAKING SAVINGS anymore) [Player]: OMG...

It's a Legendary Pokémon. Other Pokémon are attracted to Heatran for its power and status, rather than its appearance *shot*. Another thing which always bothered me is why your character passes out every time he loses. It makes him look like such a hypersensitive freak, or at the best case...

Wait, don't birds have claws on their legs? How about Pidgeot Mirroring, say, Vine Whip? Or String Shot? Or Spike Cannon?

No. Focus Band does not protect you from damage you inflict on yourself, such as recoil or confusion damage. It also does not protect you from effects such as poison and sandstorm damage.

I like linking Pokemon and (pseudo)science a lot (even as a fun way of flexing my imagination). For example, to me Butterfree learns naturally Psychic attacks as a better mode of defense against native bug/poison Pokemon. Charmander learns Metal Claw naturally in FR/LG but not in DP because its...

Carbos won't work if you have 100 Speed EVs. Same for each Vitamin and its corresponding stat.

Does the Speed drop from using Iron Ball increase the power of Gyro Ball?

No, that's the Critical Hit rate you're talking about.

Nice! And there I was puzzling over how to link a Pokemon to two measly letters...

Plus, there's Sandstream. Oh sweet Arceus, I remember that. The opponent's nicknames were almost painful. Ivysaury the Ivysaur? Fingkof the Koffing? (Hey, Fingkof yourself!) Cucu the Cubone? Monlee-hit the Hitmonlee? (Psst! Your ickname-nay ucks-say!) Ugh. X( Hmm...maybe I'm clutching at...

I like nicknames. They make sense compared to the alternative. I mean, who calls their dog "Dog"*? I always had a habit of naming my water starter "Nimbus", even though it never had Rain Dance, heh. But this time I named my Piplup "William" (you know, after Chilly Willy the penguin). My...

The Town Map says that Route 229 is continuously swept by a sandstorm that "is blown horizontally". Horizontally? As opposed to vertically, like from the sky to the ground? Good thing it didn't say "from the right to the left" as well.

50%. Initial chance of critical hit is 6,25%. Use of Scope Lens, Night Slash and Super Luck each doubles the chance, reaching 6,25->12,5->25->50%. If your EVs in the stat are over 100, the first Berry will reduce them all the way back to 100. After that, each Berry will work as an...

I don't have a Wii (yet) so could you elaborate on that method? Do you get a single Leftovers "through download" or can you get more?

Does Compoundeyes also improve the chances that a Honey Tree Munchlax will be holding Leftovers?

Do you use a Modest Ditto with Everstone attached? This will give you a 50% chance of getting a Modest Porygon. I don't think Quiet is a very good nature for Porygon-Z since it wants to hit as hard and as fast as possible, although you could have it learn Agility and not worry about it. About...

@Doval: Growth Mulch is the only fertilizer that makes Berries grow faster. I think you can buy it at the Berry Master's house in Route 208. However, it also makes soil dry quicker, so unless you water it often, you'll get few Berries in return (or worse, only 1, leaving you with a net gain of...

1) No, it makes no difference on the stats, assuming all other variables (such as EVs) remain the same. 2) When a stat increases, each "stage" is a 50% increase on the unboosted stat. Two stages is a 100% increase (the stat doubles). Maximum possible is six stages, or 300% (the stat...

Pokerus only ever gives double EVs, not double EXP. Having said that, Pokémon with the smiley face continue to earn double EVs, but can't spread Pokérus to other Pokémon any longer.
