Walrein (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Ice Body
EVs: 220 HP/240 Def/48 Spd
Bold nature (+Def, -Atk)
- Substitute
- Protect
- Brine
- Super Fang
Does this need any Sp.Atk evs/ modest nature for Brine to work well? Because I already bred a flawless Bold Walrein.
Can someone do basic damage calcs for this on OU threats?

Everything is banned from NFE that has evolved. So no pikachu, but pichu.
The following 6 pokemon/stuff are banned:
>Scyther
>Tangela
>Deep Sea Tooth (Not clamperl, only clamperl with this item is banned)
>Sneasel
>Yanma
>(Can't remember...)
That seems to be Little Cup (where the only Pokemon that are allowed are the first forms of Pokemon that have evolutions, and it's played with the Pokemon being at a maximum of Level 5) you're thinking of.
As for NFE, I don't really believe there are that many people who play that, so there aren't really any bans or anything that I know of.
Medititeand Murkrow are also banned in LC, accordin to the article on it.
I think this was already answered as 'no', take a look back through the thread.
Is there a way to soft reset for good natures Legendary Birds in Platinum? When do I have to save for the natures to be different? Right now I'm doing it (I saved just before talking to Oak in Eterna) but the way I'm doing it, if saving before Oak is really the last chance to generate the natures, I will only be able to pick the nature of one of them and then I'll be stuck with whatever else the other birds come with, right?
Is there any way to make this easier so that I can SR for the natures of all the three birds, or do I have to live with bad Articuno and Moltres if that's the case?

Well I think it'll come down to your on strategy how effective it is in play. Though having a wall on your team does help you survive if it has support movepool or can wall and stall at the same time.
Heavy offense is a playstyle that uses no walls. There was a thread about it, it got locked but there should be some good info.
So yes, walls are optional.
Personally I don't think offensive teams should have any old walls, but rather what I call 'supporters'. Screens, wish, baton pass + boost, statusing the enemy, etc. These Pokemon will often have a degree of ability to stall on their own, and they can be the same Pokemon you'll see on balanced or stall teams, but their main purpose is to help the offensive mons, and their movesets should reflect that.

No, because you can have the Rotom formes in-game and on battles not over wi-fi.
When is the best time to evolve a stone based evolution (eevee/Roserade) or an item based evolution (Gliscor/Scizor)?
I am just curious what the changes in stats may be if say i were to hatch it from and egg and immediately evolve it (Eevee --> Jolteon etc.) or to raise it to where it cannot learn anymore moves and then evolve it (Starmie)
This also is the same with item based evolution...
I am still very new to competitive battling etc. and new to these versions but am learning a ton from this site and looking to make the best decisions possible.

[@ztang]Stat wise it will still have the same stats even you evolve it early or later on. The only thing different is the moves. Some moves are only obtainable from the previous stage. Like say Staryu you wanted to get Hydro Pump then wait until you are into that level before you evolve. Or Eevee with Baton Pass at level 38. It really depend on the moves.
This is probably a really dumb question, but what does VM stand for?
Virtual machine?
Due to the EV limitations of TRU Arceus, would Bold be a better nature than Modest for the Countering Utility #1 (the Fist Plate one) moveset? The description says that it is EV'd to survive a +1 Life Orb Outrage from max Attack Adamant Rayquaza (252 HP, 72 Def), but with the EV limitations (100 HP, 100 Def), he is not guaranteed to survive with his normally recommended Modest nature, while he is with a Bold nature.
Please let me know ASAP; I just RNG'd a 31/x/31/31/31/31 Modest Arceus and am wondering if I should reset without saving for a Bold 31/x/31/31/31/31 one instead.

If I give the Everstone to both pokemon parents, that have the same nature will the offspring have a 100% chance of getting the nature?
Nope. The Everstone only works when the female/Ditto is holding it. Giving it to the male/other parent as well won't affect the offspring's nature at all.
