I'm trying to get the GTS cloning glitch to work on my Diamond. My DS makes it to the 8th spin, and at that exact point, I turn the game off with the image of it at 8.00 burned into my screen as it powers off. When I turn it back on, I get the error message about the corrupt save, but the Pokémon I was attempting to clone was only in my party, not the GTS. Any advice?
My question: I got this Ninjask (first EV trained pokémon, yay!) with these IV's and EV's:
IV: 28/30/28/0/29/30
EV: 180/250/0/0/0/80
That gives it these stats at level 50: 157/141/64/49/69/209
I use it in the battle tower, with the standard Speed - Attack BP moveset (Sub, SD, BP, X-scissor).
Now, what would be good recipients to get the boost? I now use a (non EV trained) Sceptile and a (non EV trained) Weavile, but somehow I feel it doesn't really work. Also, is it normal that it's very hard to pull of a swords dance?
Thanks

Full list of what's not needed: Mew, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus.
It depends on preference really. Personally I take the reliability of Surf over Hydro Pump's innacuracy every time, but if you try that out and find it's just not quite packing the punch you need it to, than Hydro Pump may be the better option.
For equations more complicated than a polynomial in x^2, using Excel is a decent way to find a solution.
Fill the first few entries in column A with numbers 1, 2, 3, etc. Highlight all of the entries you've filled, and click and drag the bottom-right corner of the box down the column until you get to box 100.
Then, in another column (say Column B), you type in box 1:
=1.2*(A1)^3 - 15*(A1)^2 + 100*A1 - 140
And press 'enter'. Then, select the cell, drag the bottom right corner down the column as before until you get to the 100th row.
That then gives you the entire list of levels and equivalent experience point total.
EDIT: In fact, if you want to see how much additional experience you need for each level, you can then write in the second box of a third column (Column C):
=B2-B1
Press enter, repeat the dragging thing.
I Want to use a Parafuseflinching jirachi, I already have bodyslam (60% of paralysis) and Ironhead (60% chance of flinching) but i dont know weither to use Dynamic punch or swagger
Dynamic punch has 100 power, 5 PP 50 acuracy and an 100% chance of confusing
Swagger does no damage confuses 100% of the time has 90 accuracy 15pp and raises the opponents atk by 2 stages
Both have there own benefits dynamic punch does huge damage but swagger has better accuracy pp and raises the oppenents atk so if they hurt themselves they will do more damage but on the down side if they somehow manage to hit on me i will sustain major damage.
Also i was going to use wish for wish support, should i use a different move instead?

i used regirock for tought raikou for cool and chatot for smart i didnt do any other catgories yet
I just learned about EV training, and so I want to start to EV train, but all my Pokemon are about level 70 or so. So I was just wondering if you think I could EV train my team before they reach 100. Or do you think I should Breed new pokemon? Thanks so much!
There are berries which lower the EVs of stats if you want to go down that way, so you can EV train as you please even though you're at level 70. You should breed for decent IV Pokemon if yours don't have decent IV's but that may take a while.
Your best weapon for contests is a "double next turn's hearts" move, followed by a "double hearts if Voltage goes up" move that matches the contest's type. A "double hearts if first" is an acceptable substitute, and there are more of these than the other kind. I've won all the contests with those combos. The funniest example of mine is my Cute Chatot. Nasty Plot and Return were its only moves. It has beaten the highest rank cute contest.
Also, epic Poffin recipe. Tested and proven to max out all of a Pokemon's contest stats. You need four people working together though.
If I use my AR for Fast Hatch, IV Check, Fast Egg A LOT, and OCCASIONALLY Rare Candies, TMs, and Force Egg, will my game get screwed up?
EDIT: Also, should Cloyster run Shell Armor w/ Ice Beam or Skill Link with Icicle Spear?

If you change the time on your DS clock so that it stays on a single day, do the four Feebas squares in Mt Coronet change position?
I'm trying to get onto the IRC channel #stark on Colloquy (I use a MacBook Pro). When I try to log in, I get a message that says I must have a registered nickname to join the room. I've looked everywhere but can't seem to figure out how to register. How do I go about doing this?
