Yes.

My description for Counter reads, in part, "If the last non-user who hit the user with a physical attack this round is one of user's opposing Pokémon, [deals twice that attack's damage]."

Thus, as long as an enemy Pokemon (not Wobbuffet's partner) used a physical attack against Wobbuffet, Counter will still work even if a special attack was used in between by the other enemy.

Mirror Coat works in an analogous way.

Does anyone have a perfect ditto that's not modest nature they can give me? I'm looking to make my breeding a LOT easier in SS!

 

[Cipher Admin Lovrina]

So can Nintendo detect "hacks" if you rnged the pokemon from a hacked wonder card?

???

Okay! Thanks! Thanks especially for the quick reply.

I doubt you could tell if the card was hacked, but perfect IVs across the board with "Fateful encounter" on them would probably make me suspicious.

I'm thinking of using Roserade in an in-game team to play against my friends. I don't want to breed for HP Fire; what non-HP move should I use instead of it? (Lead Roserade btw...)

Sludge Bomb is probably your best option since you get STAB on it and Extrasensory doesn't have a much better offensive type (and you'd have to breed for it). If you or your friends plan on using Sunny Day or Rain Dance, Weather Ball could be a good option.

So I have my friends FC and he has mine, he has HG and I have SS, when I go to the basement and go to the wifi room to try to battle him neither of us show up on eachother screens, any ideas how I can fix this or what I'm doing wrong?

Great, I'll use Sludge Bomb; thanks for the speedy reply. :)

If you are next to each other you should use the top floor left for battling, the top middle for trades.
the basement is for wifi, and you will need to connect with a router for that. wifi is mainly for people far away, wireless (the 2nd floor, up the staircase) is for direct connection. for that you dont need to register FCs.

if you mean that you are both connected to wifi and can't see each other, then I have no idea.

Is there any sort of effort ribbon in Soul Silver, or anything like it to let you know that you've EV trained correctly?

Yep, the east-most (if I remember correctly) house in Blackthorn has the lady who gives the Effort Ribbon.

Very nice, thank you very much! Also, what's the best place to level up your pokemon fast after you EV train them?

Best I can think of is gym leader rematches. As long as it's the time they're free for them, you can chllenge them as much as you want. Sunday nights are the best since that's when Blue fights you, and his team's levels are floting around 70. Bring an Exp Share until your Pokemon can handle his stuff itself.

Extra advice: If you see that there's a Chansey swarm, grab a Pokemon with CompoundEyes and one with Thief/Covet, and hunt Chanseys. The CompoundEyes Pokemon will ensure you find more Chanseys with items. You should have a couple of Lucky Eggs within an hour, as well as a stupid amount of Oval Stones.

SHORT STORY - Someone mind checkin' if Numel can learn Stone Edge (TM 71) ?

LONG STORY - Numel seems to miss out on a lot of TM's that Camerupt learns (Explosion, Flash Cannon, Roar etc). Wondered whats up with that. I hope they got that Stone Edge wrong.

 

[Deis]

According to bulbapedia Numel does not get stone edge but does get Rock Slide which has less power but more accuracy so is a decent alternative

Thanks but thats the place I checked. But I just want a final confirmation in game. Seems odd that Numel can't have it but Camerupt can.

I used Action Replay to get a Jirachi code in SoulSilver. However this code doesn't give Jirachi straight to your party with perfect IV's or a Jolly nature. It's IV's and nature are completely random every time I SR it, just like a regular a stationary legendary. It is the Nintendo Zone Jirachi (OT is Gamestop or something like that) and I can receive it from the Delivery Man in PokeMart after activating the code. Is this Jirachi legitimate or not?

Is it possible to rebattle Sudowoodo and the shiny Gyarados in HGSS if you defeat them?

 

[KevlarX290]

Is it possible to rebattle Sudowoodo and the shiny Gyarados in HGSS if you defeat them?

The answer is actually yes. Defeat the Elite 4 and they will respawn back to their original locations. You can repeat this until they're captured. This applies to all legendaries and Snorlax too, although Snorlax and Suicune respawn at different locations.

Why is it physical Lucario's are so much more common than special? I ask because I run Specs Lucario which dominates, as long as I go first.

Because Lucario has Swords Dance which makes it much more deadly as a physical sweeper and Lucario has better priority move on the physical side, ExtremeSpeed, compared to Vacuum Wave. Close Combat is also much more powerful than Aura Sphere.

I would like to get an answer to this one.

 

[Veedrock]

If you have to question if a pokemon is legitimate or not, the answer is no. And in case anybody tries to present technicalities:

Yet we recognize that everyone has their own views and standards when it comes to what is "legit" or "illegit". The site will respect this, and will not interfere with the use of external devices in any sort of way. Yet we ask that the use of external device is fully documented and disclosed when one uses the WiFi subforums - as an act that will respect the views of the other party.

As it produces a Jirachi identical to that which could be obtained by legit means, it's a "legal hack", OK for battling if you inform your opponent but not for trading. Note that many wi-fi players will refuse to battle teams that contain hacked event Pokémon, though, even if it was a legal hack, as legitimate event Pokémon can be hard to find.
