I believe it;s 1/16 --> 1/4 ---> 1/3 ---> 1/2. It's in the D/P research thread, which this question belongs in anyways.

Two questions:
1) What exactly does Mold Breaker do? At Serebii, it says "Opponents ability has no Effect" but Intimate always works. Soo... May I have an explanation?
2) Right now, I am playing in the Singles match at the Battle Tower. Since a Pokemons lvl is dropped down to 50, does this affect the EV's as well? Like, if I have a lvl 100 Zam fully EV Trained, does it still get a stat point for every 4 EV's when the tower brings it down to lvl 50, or does it take whatever it usually is (8 EV's?) to get a stat point?

Didnt know the rest of them
Vash- It stops all abilities that would have some kind of defense. Basically, it "negates" Battle Armor, Clear Body, Damp, Dry Skin, Filter, Flash Fire, Flower Gift, Heat Proof, Hyper Cutter, Immunity, Inner Focus, Insomnia, Keen Eye, Leaf Guard, Lightningrod, Limber, Magma Armor, Marvel Scale, Motor Drive, Oblivious, Own Tempo, Sand Viel, Shell Armor, Shield Dust, Simple, Snow Cloak, Solid Rock, Soundproof, Sticky Hold, Storm Drain, Sturdy, Suction Cups, Tangled Feet, Thick Fat, Unaware, Vital Spirit, Volt Absorb, Water Absorb, Water Viel, White Smoke, and Wonder Guard.
Mold breaker also hits levitators. It basically stops any ability that would prevent Rampardos/Pinsir attacking.
Ahh, I was hoping it stopped levitate too. EAT IT GENGAR!
Thanks a lot
But does anybody got an answer to:

thanks, i dont think anyone will expect it
I'm fairly sure it would go down to what you'd normally need for a stat point at level 50 (8 EVs).
Thanks for help, I'm gonna definately use rockslide.
Yea, the reasoning on Rock Slide, simply put is, Gyarados is likely to taunt Bronzong that switches in (even if it Gyarados Dragond Danced, for fear that Hypnosis would force the Gyarados to switch, cause everyone bascially KNOWS Bronzog carrys Hypnosis). This is where you would instead of using Hypnosis use Rock Slide instead, and hit Gyarados bascially for a free SE hit. Remember, any Non Waterfall Gyarados Sets that run Dragon Dance, Earthquake, Taunt, Ice Fang fail miserably against Bronzong's resistance to Ice and immunity to Ground.

Question on the item Metronome, does it's effect work with the move Metronome?
And, does No Guard work for your partner in Double Battles?
Yes, HOWEVER.
TrickSpecing, as you call it, does not force you to use Trick/Switcheroo multiple times because you lose the Item after using the attack.
But yes, if you had Choice Specs equipped and you used Focus Punch, you'd only be able to use Focus Punch until you switched out.
Yep, that's right. Works exactly like CB. So whatever move gets used, regardless of Phys, Sp, or Other (like DD or NP), it will be stuck on it.
IRT Kromlech:
I'm not so sure about running away, but if you kill them, they won't come back. Just like the Legendary Birds. Correct me if I am wrong, though.
EDIT: Bah CPU V2.0. Beat me to it. Your answer is better anyway.
Nope, no breeding chain allows both.
What's a good special wall to go with this team?
Venu/Vaporeon/Infernape/Electivire/Skarm
Please don't say Blissey lol

Empoleon?? Dusknoir.....chansey :P
cressilia or uxie maybe?
can someone link me to the topic about using the pokeradar to get strings of pokemon and possibly increasing your chance of finding a shiny? i can't find it.
I'm trying not to have two pokemon of the same type or have legendaries on my team :x
Dusknoir might be feasible. Any others?

I actually think you might be better off going with something more offensive. You've got a lot of the various special threats covered already, but the main threats sticking out at me right now are azelf, zam, and gar. Pursuit/Night Slash Weavile should handle all three. You'd have to watch out for timid zam with focus blast, though.
I have a few questions:
1. How does Metal Burst work? Is it the same as Counter/Mirror Coat?
2. How much does Big Root increase damage for Dream Eater or Giga Drain?
3. How much does Hitmonchan's ability increase Focus Punch?
4. Facade has 70 damage. If i'm burned/poisoned/paralyzed its 140 right?
