Hello all, I was wondering what would be better for my Hiyapuu (Water monkey) In-game/Wi-fi/Competetive. Currently He is level 37 (Not evolving untill he learns crunch at 43) and i can't tell which would overall be the better move. Boiling Water or Surf. Surf does more damage (90 base power + STAB) While boiling water is 80 base and a 30% chance for burn i think. (It has STAB too for those who don't know.) I just got the 7th badge from the Ice gym so i can use surf now, Moveset is Shadow claw, Acrobat, Cheer up. so yeah... Answer please. Thanks.

It all depends really on how you want it to perform. Do you want that little extra damage that surf deals to the opponents? Or would you like to keep that 30% chance to burn any physical sweeper that switches in?
The "Hide Teams" option is only available when you use Infared, meaning you won't be able to play with anyone using that option unless you battle them in person.
It must just be you. I can see it easily enough, right where it should be.
You don't need to leave a spot in the party, the game asks you if you want to add Resh/Zek to your party and who you want to give the boot.
However, it is true that if you KO it you must fight it again and capture it to advance the story, in my experiences at least. There doesn't seem to be a workaround at this point.

When breeding, if I attach an everstone to the female parent, will the hatched pokemon inherit the parent's nature?
It will a greater proportion of the time than it otherwise would, or at least it did in gen 4, and I don't think they changed it. I don't think anyone has tested it yet in BW though.
Hey, out of curiosity, if you gave a lamprah a dusk stone at lv. 41, would shanderaa still be able to learn the moves that lambrah would have learned later? Example: Lamprah learns Shadow Ball at 53. I evolve it into Shanderaa at level 41. Would it still learn the move at 53, or could I go to the move relearner? Thanks!
No, it would not learn the move, and you could not go to the move relearner to learn it, unless Shanderaa also learns it at some point (including at level zero). You need to learn it as a Lamprah.
How can I send Pokemon up to the GlobalLink, get C-Gear & Pokedex Skins, and battle using the GBU? I managed to download the Pikachu skin onto my GlobalLink account, which means the website has recognized my game, but whenever I try to send a Pokemon to the GlobalLink using the Game-Sync function in the C-Gear, I'm asked to choose a Pokemon, but then the screen simply doesn't advance, it doesn't seem to deposit the Pokemon in the GlobalLink, and I am forced to restart my game. From my understanding this is the only way your skins can get updated. And as far as the GBU goes, I've had no luck accessing it from the main menu option on the game, has anyone else been able to?
yes all 670+ bst pokes except Slaking and regigigas.
but its down for a few days to implement triples/rotation battles and stuff.
Does Encourage have any effect on U-turn?
No.
Encourage only affects moves that have a non-zero, non-guaranteed "effect chance" in the data, which it then treats as zero to compensate for the boost. Effectively, that means these moves; not all of them have been tested and I suppose others are theoretically possible, but from a programming standpoint this makes the most sense and as far as I can tell it agrees with the experimental data so far. Thinking about it as if Encourage just knows whether moves have any incidental special effect at all is only going to confuse you.
Ignore the weird and inaccurate descriptions of some of the moves; it's being worked on.

I don't have/know how to get the pikachu skin like you did, could you tell me how? As for your question. (Just going to explain what i know) I'm not sure when, but you get a ID for making a accoun/connecting your ds to the global link, Also known as pokemon-gl.com or something. You have to make a account there if you havin't. Mine only NOT let me send a pokemon to dream world when i alreaddy sent and took back one in that day, so i think it's once a day. and i don't know what happens if you have no pokemon in your pc either. But if you ever get it connected, you have to click the DS symbol (Orange i think) on the site and checkmark what you want. Hope this helped somehow. :]
