Can Starmie be bulky? It has 85/85 defences which is more than Crobat which is somewhat considered bulky but it let down by it's 60hp. However unlike Crobat it has Cosmic Power which will further boost it's defence and does get recover. With Leftovers would this work? Considering that water only has 2 weaknesses but only 4 resistences.
Yes. It's a gimmick set, though, so don't expect it to work often.

Can someone explain to me how hard setting permanently damages my ds's battery
It doesn't, and it's called hard resetting.

Can Someone please post links to competitive OU team building or battling guide(s)?
Just look in the "Contributions and Corrections" part of the forums and use the search function in there. That way, you'll also find exactly what part of competitive battling you want to know (EV-training, team building, etc) and you'll never have to use this thread again *wink wink cough cough*.

can you use a UU pokemon to do a late-game sweep in an OU match, provided the UU pokemon isn't crappy?
Yes, OBVIOUSLY.
 
So I just ordered these Plusle and Minun Keychains for me and this girl(40dollarsforagirlwtf)
and it says Prasle and Minun and Purasle is the Japanese name...
So then I googled image searched Prasle and I still got Plusle stuff.
So what language is Prasle? or is it a typo?
This is what it is

In game, when you check a Pokemon's location in the Pokedex, why do some locations flash blue and some red? I presume it's common/rare or something like that?
 
Ok, ok, have mercy on me, but....

LOL, completely not pokemon related, but I'm playing Earthbound 0 (mother) for NES and I don't know how to use the cash card... my dad says I have 111 dollars, but I can't buy anything!

So yeah, help me out XD

PS: I googled it, didn't find anything.
 
How do I do a hack test? How does it work?

Use pAC: http://pokeguide.filb.de/pAC/pac.php
there are instructions on that page on how to use it.
Only works for wild pokemon and legends, doesn't work for events and hatched pokemon. The info on checking hatched pokemon may be available on internet but its mostly knowledge and experience acquired by certain people like raikou and yamipoli. Nobody hack checks on smogon anymore so try to use common sense while trading.
 
Well I have two pokemon that look VERY suspicious. So, I would like them checked.

And, can you use BL pokemon in UU?

If they are bred pokemon only a person like goodbar or raikou could do it, otherwise use pAC.
And no, you can't use BL on UU, BL it's not even a tier just a distinction of which pokemon are too powerful for UU.
 
Does Lugia care about Speed at all?

From what I remember 204 Speed with a 31 Speed IV reaches 307 Speed outspeeding Kyogre, Groudon, and Dialga by one point. So you could Ice Beam Groudon and Roost off damage before Groudon, Dialga, and Kyogre hit you with a few super effective attacks.
 
Does Lugia care about Speed at all?

Speed is vital to Lugia. He'd be seeing a lot less use if he couldn't Roost off Groudon's Stone Edge or Kyogre's Thunder amongst other attacks. From a quick glance at the analysis, you can see that the primary "Great Wall" set uses 204 speed EVs, whereas the secondary set uses a Timid nature and 176 speed EV's.
 
How does Focus Sash on a Shedinja work? Assume that my opponent only has one pokemon on him and that Shedinja is my only pokemon. Shedinja is holding the Focus Sash, and my opponent only has attacks that are super-effective against Shedinja. Would the Focus Sash give me an invincible Shedinja, or would it activate the first time and then fail to activate afterwards?
 
Someone wanna make me a good Spread or 2 for this...:
