Why is there a flame orb set on heracross?
I don't really get it...... guts boosts his attack by 1.5 with burn, but the burn just reduces it back to normal attack right?

No, guts pokemons don't have their attack reduced by the burn status.
I read something about international parents breeding more shinies or something...
is this true?
also can someone direct me to a introductory guide to breeding for shinies and good IVs?
any help is much appreciated :)

Tri attack is a Pokemon XD special move for Togepi, if you look at Serebii's 3rd gen pokedex you'll find it at the bottom of the page.
edit: lol Erazor I was just confirming what you said ^__^
About breeding for good IVs, look at the breeding guide. If you want to breed shiny pokemons you have to learn how to abuse D\P\Pt or Emerald RNG.

@Railith. There really isn't an easy way to get a perfectly legit Explosion TM on your own. If you aren't a complete freak about legitimacy, you can just ask someone with AR to trade you one. It's not like your game is scarred if you get a hacked TM. If not, just keep playing those slots and hope for the best.
Can someone give me a good damage calculator that takes into consideration EV's, IV's, STAB, Sandstorm, SR, Item Held, etc. Hopefully something not too complicared to use lol.
Looks easy enough except I don't understand what typing is or how to use it.
Basically it's whether or not the attack is super effective/not very effective. Or has stab.
Mind explaining it? If the attacking pokemon was lets say Electivire and the Defensive was Metagross and E-Vire used flamethrower what would I put? Also how would I make it do a 4x weakness?
Thank you.
As far as I know all pokemon have the exact same chance of breeding a child as a shiny, it's around 1 in 8000 or so I believe. As far as breeding good IV's this guide has everything you need to know, IV breeding is pretty simple to understand, it's just time consuming.

If you know how to abuse pokeradar you have increased odds of finding a shiny in the wild although the IV's won't be nearly as good as if you had bred it yourself.
The exact chance of any given randomly-encountered Pokemon of being shiny is 1/8192.
Whats arceus status on shoddy smogon server? Can i use it(plan for it) in ladder uber battles? Been away from pokemon for awile but i heard its to be allowed.
It will be in July I believe. But I have an Arceus related question of my own,
If Knock Off is used on an Arceus holding a Plate will Arceus revert to it's Normal type?
I have the answer to that-until arceus switches out it will keep its type. Next time it switches in it stays normal due to lack of plate. However this is a bug\incorrect compared to the actual game.
The multitype ability prevents Knock-Off, Trick, Thief from working. On Shoddy, though, it still does which is a bug on Shoddybattle.
