So how does this Beauty thing work? I have a Feebas to evolve. A quick search came up with Poffins, but mine is Bold and the guide mentioned Feebas being a certain nature. What can I do?

Don't you have to maximize the Beauty stat without raising the other four? That's how I thought it worked in ADV...
EDIT: Found the answer. Never mind.
 
What is the use of Mirror Coat on a Trace opener Pory-2? I keep seeing more about this but do not understand the use of Mirror Coat..? aside from reflecting Special Attacks what else is the point?

When you put it that way, there is no point. Also, Porygon2 cannot learn Mirror Coat.

However, it CAN learn Magic Coat. This reflects STATUS attacks, not Special. Hypnotizing the poor squeaky toy? You eat it instead.
 
my bad sayign mirror coat, so if somthing comes in say opening scarfgar uses Hypnosis and I use MAGIC coat he gets hypnotized and I get nothing?

Yep. Also has move priority of 4. If Hypnosis would have put you to sleep (as in hit), it puts him to sleep instead. The reflect does not effect the move user if the attack wouldn't work normally (as in Hypnosis on an Insomia-bearer), but you aren't effected if you try to reflect it. I think.
 
thanks so by that you mean pokemon such as Hypno with insomnia? well thanks for clearing that all up :)

Also another question because I cant find it anywhere and I need a base to work off does anyone know the standard Umbreon Curse set? like I know its what, Curse,Toxic/Baton Pass,Wish,Payback but what would the EV spread be? I was thinking probably 252 HP and 252 Sp.Def 6 whatever but I never know with these things
 
Has anyone got the link to the Duo-type coverage thread, I think it was by X-Act. (With the whole list what the best type coverage was)
 
Question: I keep seeing stuff like "tpunch + poison heal breloom is illegal", "brightpowder/double team is illegal", where do I find a thread on what is illegal (preferrably with explanations)?

Use your brain for the first kind. It's impossible to get ThunderPunch on a Poison Heal Breloom because ThunderPunch is only learnable in Emerald, and Breloom can't have Poison Heal in Emerald. It'd be possible if Shroomish could learn it, but the lack of hands renders that impossible. So if someone has one with both, they cheated.

As for the second kind, it's breaking evasion clause, which pretty much everyone plays by.
 
i need some help with my action replay re-battle codes. i used the arceus one as ive caught him already and i also use the run through anything and 100% capture rate one. i get to spear pillar but before i go there i hold l and r to activate the code, but when i go to spear pillar, the stairs aren't there anymore, and when i try to play my azure flute it says that is is meaningless to play it. so what do i do as my re-batgtle dialga one works fine?

What does synchronize ability exactly do other than synchronizing the status ?
Also, suppose i am leveling up a pokemon with exp share and i kill a diglett(1 speed EV), how would my pokemons get the EVs? Would it be one each or one only for the one who killed it?

Synchronize, I think can also increase the pokemon encounter rate with whatever has Synchronize's nature.

Any pokemon that gets experience will get the EVs.
