Preliminary tests show that Download, when facing a Pokemon with identical Defense\SpDef, will choose to boost whichever attacking stat is higher. However, this is extremely difficult to test in-game because it requires one to encounter an Adamant Porygon with a high Attack IV and a low SpAttk IV.

I also reported earlier that Beat Up ignores Wonder Guard, no matter who's got it.

EDIT: Assist's behavior in PBR needs to be tested. In Advance and DP, Assist can call upon the moves of fainted teammates. In Colosseum\XD, however, Assist cannot. Since Colosseum and PBR are both Genius Sonority products, it is worth a test.
