So why am I getting hit -most- of the time?

Scenario at the moment being in the small patch of grass just outside of Snowpoint (pearl) and the Machokes hit my Rapidash regularly while i'm in the air. It doesn't seem to matter what move they use; i've been hit by seismic toss, submission and revenge.
 
Hi, I have some lvl 70 pokémon wich aren't EV trained but with good natures. I want to EV train them now, but first I need to feed them berries. How do I know when a certain EV is back zero again?

Also, if you use a move like trick, or consume a berry in the battle tower or a multiplayer battle, do you have your own original item/berry back when the battle is done?
I don't want to waste alot of scarfs using TrickScarf.

This questions may be stupid, but I've never played competitively and I'd like to start with it.

Thanks.
 
if I were to hatch an absol on emerald with pressure as an ability, what would its ability be when I migrate it to Pokemon Pearl? Pressure or Superluck? thanks
 
The Scizor analysis for the Swords Dance set recommends putting 32 EVs into HP for 11 uses of Life Orb. Wouldn't it be better to get an HP IV of 29 and put no EVs into HP, so you can max your speed while still having 11 uses of Life Orb?

Yes, you'll get your original item back.

I'm not sure about your first question though, sorry.

In what order do moves get replaced in the Daycare? Top to bottom or bottom to top?

I believe what happens is that the current move at the top of the list is removed, then the new move is placed at the bottom of the list.

You should get a message such as "But it didn't have any effect." or something similar when you use the berry.

The game will tell you the stat won't go any lower.

So if I have
Tackle
Spikes
Ice Beam
Sub

and I learn Destiny Bond, it'll look like this
Spikes
Ice Beam
Sub
Destiny Bond
??

Yes, the same applies to wild Pokemon caught at higher levels.
 
Does Sandstorm raise the power of ground moves like Sunny Day, Rain Dance, etc do for their respective types? Smogon's article on Sandstorm didn't specifically say.

Galceon seems too slow for Specs, so I Scarf it. Modest or Timid?

Or you could run it in Trick Room and make it Bulky instead of Fast. That's most likely a more effctive way of using it anyway.

I believe it does not. Instead it raises the SpD of rock types by 50%

This is correct. It also does not hurt Pokemon that have Sand Veil, even if they are not ground/rock/steel, most notably Cacturne.
 
does last resort fail if it is your only move? On shoddy I made a lol team centering around an ambipom sweeping with last resort. It was my only move because I decided having a choice scarf was better than having fake out. but in my first match I used last resort and it just failed.

If only it was that easy...

In order to use this move, all other moves in the user's moveset must have been used at least once since the user has switched in. This move cannot be used if it is the user's only move; however, it can be used with only one other move.
