Because Tentacruel gets hit hard by Heracross anyway, and Muk/the Nidos are almost never seen in OU. It's better coverage without it.

How much attack is required to kill standard offensive salamences with Ice Shard, factoring in stealth rock and sandstorm but not STAB or Intimidate.
I don't know what evs salamences run these days.

Who's faster?
I think it depends on which Pokemon's faster, but I think Ice Shard will always go first, so I could be wrong =/.
Sucker Punch always goes first in any attack. It's not a simple priority attack.
you do realize... you just put two different answers lol
and go with Lorak's his is right, the faster Pokemon hits first, if the Ice Sharder is faster and therefore goes first, Sucker Punch will fail
I hate to bump it, bu this question would be answered...
Let me explain the power items.
Say you battle a Magikarp, which gives +1 speed. If you attached Power Anklet, which adds 4 speed EVs, you would get 5 speed EVs per Magikarp killed.
So yes, for every Pokemon battled. It cuts down on EVing time, big time. :)

This isn't really supposed to handle Infernape, just the common leads of right now's metagame.
Choice Banded Tyranitar would be really a fine lead, and it's quite good against Aerodactyl.
The new anti-lead Scarf Jirachi beats it if you flinch it.
Weavile also beats it with Fake out + Ice shard and Life orb.

Can you do Platinum WiFi activities such as trading and battling over at WiFi in the DSi?
From my experience, it fails against Tyranitar. Sandstream doesn't break Sash, and EQ from Aero 2HKOes unless you're really bulky. Bronzong works well, immunity to EQ and resistance to Rock Slide, plus Gyro Ball to kill it. Won't stop it from setting up rocks though.
Does damage round up, or just when the number in the tenths place is 5 or up? Thought I heard it always rounds up, but just want to make sure.
For instance, something does 20.52% - 24.43%, does that round down to 24 like usual or up to 25 for some reason?
Yes, you can utilize Platinum's wi-fi functions on the DSi.
