I'm pretty sure that every 3rd(?) round you win, you get 20 points for beating your rival's dad

for the battle factory(only one I ever really did, every 2 wins of 7 in a row, it would go up by win, i.e. first time, 3 points, 2nd time, 3 points, 3rd time, 4 points, etc.

I already answered this.....The other day from you.
After a couple of wins in a row (at the same place) the points you get will go up and eventually you will get to battle that area's leader and get 10+ points
Thanks Davy, but it has to be in the same building right? Because I see so many places to battle.
Answer please?
^ Isn't Focus Sash supposed to prevent you from getting 1HKO'ed?
Just out of curiousity, but are flat out tanks or pokes with lots of resistances more effective in walling and making a threat?
In most of the Battle Frontier areas, the BP gain increases after every other battle. I find the Battle Pike or the Battle Pyramid to be the quickest way to gain BP (with the Pike, you can possibly fight up to 7 trainers, or more with double battles, but sometimes less. In the Pyramid you gain 5 BP per succesful set of 7, although this does take it's time - much easier at L50 than L100).
Also note the Battle Tower is the exception to this, where you gain 1 BP, then the gain increases by 1 per floor (so second time you would win 2 BP, third time you would win 3 BP, etc). On other areas, you have a base starting value, which increases by 1 every two floors. The Battle Pike starts at 3 BP, and increases by 1 every two successful round (so it goes 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, etc). The Frontier Brains give you a good amount too, usually between 12 and 20.
Also, go to the house somewhat south-east of the Battle Pyramid and place bets. You can bet 5, 10 or 15 BP, but if you win the area you are going to, you get double back (plus the BP you won from beating that area). They sometimes send you to obscure areas, like Battle Factory Double Battles, but if you don't do these areas often you will face the lower tier set of Pokemon (unevolved and NUs) so those bets can be placed with confidence.

^ Thank you Toothache. BTW, are you the same Toothache from Pokecommnity?
What happened to your fish avatar lol? =D
What makes a superior sleep-inducer? Bronzong or Milotic? I've spent weeks getting a nice Hypnosis Milotic...But does it make a better sleep talker? Or can I use the standard Bronzong lead set (Earthquake, Gyro Ball, Stealth Rock) with another support move besides hypnosis? Any suggestions?
IMO it would be Bronzong. Superior defenses and typing make up for the lack of a reliable recovery move.
Last question about the Emerald Battle Frontier. It says that after the 4th round, the leader is supposed to come. But do I have to win 4 in a row, or just 4 period? Because I lost one (accidently).
Focus Sash prevents OHKOs. I remember on PBR, a Kyogre used Sheer Cold on my Weavile.
"It's a one hit KO!"
"Weavile hung on with it's focus sash!"
Lol.
^ Lol, I remember I saw someone on a thread refer to you as "The Burger King Guy".
Is CharmBliss usable for those who don't want to use the Standard Special Wall set or the Calm Mind set?
Ice Beam
Light Screen
Charm

Charm forces switches, I could see it usable with SR + Spikes support.
"Burger King Guy", "The King"... They are both accurate. It's a shame McDonald's food is superior.
So a Standard Bronzong Lead with a Charmbliss would be useful because the opponent would be constantly switching into stealth rock damage?
yes I've fought against some before it kinda acts like a pseudo-phaze move(if that even makes sense).
got that right :D
Yeah...McDonalds is better =(
This is a tough one. Doing %53 minimum for an attack that does not drop in power is a 2HKO with Lefties. I think if you do %79 minimum, they restore %6 from lefties, you can 2HKO them the second time with a halfed in power Draco Meteor. I'm not completely sure though.
