If a Pokemon's species is not copied, that would seem to imply that Metal Powder and Quick Powder would still give Ditto their boosts after Transform is used. Is that now the case?Slightly:
A Pokemon's species is not copied with Transform, even though its user takes on the opponent's appearance. Thus, a Pokemon's base experience and catch rate will not be copied either, since both are derived from the Pokemon's species. However, the opponent's weight will be copied.
I was always curious about that. Maybe Transform only copies battle parameters, like Species, moveset, weight, etc? Perhaps catch rate is left out when copied.If a Pokemon's species is not copied, that would seem to imply that Metal Powder and Quick Powder would still give Ditto their boosts after Transform is used.

Did you test Attract, Charm, Captivate, Charm, Confuse Ray, Cotton Spore, Disable, Embargo, Encore, Entrainment, Fake Tears, Flash, Flatter, Gastro Acid, Growl, Memento, Quash, Roar, Sand Attack, Simple Beam, Smokescreen, Soak, Spite, Spore, Sweet Scent, Switcheroo, Tail Whip, Taunt, Teeter Dance, Tickle, Torment, Trick, Whirlwind and Worry Seed(and several others)? Or have you reached this conclusion from testing Sing, Heal block, Hypnosis and Leer alone?This is to be expected. Wonder Skin changes the accuracy of non-damaging attacks against its bearer to 50 (before other accuracy-modifying effects.) This is unlike most other effects that modify accuracy, such as evasiveness and BrightPowder. In this way, for example, Leer and Heal Block, which both have an accuracy of 100, will have an accuracy of 50 instead. As another example, Hypnosis, which has an accuracy of 60, will have an accuracy of 50 (not 30) instead.
It's a female Zoroark; Audino's HP can't be that low at lv 25.
I believe however that this is different from previous generations. I remember people exploiting Mew's Transform in Emerald to give it a higher catch rate. Both this and EXP yeild are listed as effects copied by transform on Serebii (I know it doesn't have the best information). I assume that this was the case previously, and that the mechanics of Transform have changed. Hence why I tested it.Slightly:

So it is fixed now?Bulbapedia said:The Sky Drop glitch is a glitch in Pokémon Black and White Versions that occurs in double and triple battles when Gravity is used while two Pokémon are in the semi-invulnerable state when Sky Drop is used. Due to the glitch, the move Sky Drop was banned in Wi-Fi Random Matches starting November 10, 2010. This glitch has been fixed as of March 2011, however.
I still can't use Random Matchup with a Pokémon that knows Sky Drop, so I'm guessing it hasn't been fixed.So it is fixed now?
