@aaron: SD Scizor is very close to SD luke. Stuff like RP aggron or RPerior can play similarly to agility gross, though I cant think of anything just like them.

Thanks for the quick reply, what does min and max stand up as? min=positive nature onlyand max=ev trained only? since there is -min min max max+. Sorry for the dumb question ^^;
K thanks for answering ^^.
Note that the analysis assumes 31 IVs for every stat. So technically the lowest a pokemon can go is (Min-) - 31.
On my Diamond I PalParked over six Pokemon from my FireRed game. I sent over the three birds, Mewtwo, Pupitar, and the UK Aura Mew (which I got myself from the Event.)
However all of them say they are from Kanto, and the Mew says it's from Hoenn. Which is this? I have never used any cheat devices, used glithes, or even traded with anyone ever, so I cannot understand why??

BlueEew:
A Pokemon migrated from a GBA game will have a "game of origin" that depends on where it was caught. A Pokemon that was "met in a fateful encounter" will assume Hoenn by default (and therefore the "game of origin" Ruby and Sapphire), since in the GBA games, "fateful encounter" does not correspond to any particular place.
The Mew was "met in a fateful encounter", so the game takes the game of origin as "Ruby and Sapphire" and will say that Mew "arrived" from "Hoenn."
For the other Pokemon, the "game of origin" is "FireRed", so the game will say that each of those Pokemon "arrived" from "Kanto".

It relates to the usage of Pokemon in the Suspect Tier, which is a tier that exists to test out whether a specific suspect Pokemon is Uber or not.
In the most recent case the suspect Pokemon was Salamence, the Suspect Tier was used to test out an OU metagame without Salamence. The results from that test eventually resulted in the banning of Salamence from OU to Ubers.
Two questions:
1) If a pokemon is asleep and switches out, when it switches back in is its sleep counter reset to 2-5? If so, if they are asleep due to rest and switch out, is the sleep counter set to 3 or 2-5?
2) If I'm inflicted with regular poison but switch into two layers of toxic spikes, does the new poison trump the old? This is useful to know for Milotic due to Marvel Scale.
EDIT: Thanks purple crobatchop and BurningMan! If Rest doesn't reset then I doubt enemy-induced sleep would either, but if anybody thinks otherwise just post so.

dont know about the first one but the if your "normal" poisoned you cant get "heavily" poisend
Sorry, I don't really get it. Does it mean the Suspect Usage is a tier played when a Pokemon is decided to be banned? Does it test if the results are balanced in the new tier? Is there no Suspect Usage when no one is being banned? Thanks.
Correct. The Suspect Tier tests whether a balanced metagame can exist without the suspect Pokemon. Because no Pokemon are suspect right now no Suspect Tier exists.
The Suspect tier is just like you asked, it's a "let's see what the metagame is like without [Pokémon name]." So no, there is no Suspect tier other than when a Pokémon is being considered for Ubers.
You can't EV train level 100 Pokemon because they no longer gain experience. The best you can do is put 100 EVs in each stat with vitamins and then deposit in the box, exit, and then withdraw it to have the stats recalculated.
