For OU, where does it cut off? Is it for pokemon that have been used 20000 times +?

i think its pokemon that have a usage percentage of 4% or better, but im not entirely sure on that exact number.

Who are some pokemon that work well with the Jirachi + Gliscor + Rotom-W core?
Thanks!

usually teams that have this are either a rain team or sandstorm team. just work around that i guess. politoed, tornadus/dnite, toxicroak, scizor, ferrothorn, skarm. or ttar/hippo, excadrill, garchomp, donphan...


i have my own question:

is there a way to use the rotom formes on gen 5 wif? i mean like for battles on the actual DS wifi.
 
avdc90:

In generation 5 games, Rotom will always retain its form, even if it enters the Union Room, a Random Matchup battle, or any other Wi-Fi battle.
 
Can you change Deoxys' forms in B/W? If so, where?

The museum where you turn in fossils. Go to the meteorite. You can't actually pick which form you get, but it cycles through them in an order (I don't remember the order, but i think it's like

... --> normal --> attack --> defense --> speed --> normal --> ...
 
Hey guys, I've got a question.

The ability defeatist (cuts atk/spatk by half if hp go down to 50%): does it lower the base stats or the real stats? what i mean is:

will archeops' base-atk just go down to 70, with no effects on the stat points gained by evs and ivs? or will these additional stat points be halved, too?

The "real" stats, for example.....

"Archeaops used Rock Slide. The attacks missed!"
"Metagross used Zen Headbutt! Archeops lost 79% of it's HP!"
Defeatist activates
Archeaops' attacks (let's just say 400) is cut in half (to 200).

Awww, that sucks. Thanks, though, Chau.

And I've got another question: if the ability was activated once, can you cancel it by using a potion? or do you have to switch it first?

I think it's more like a "state" like "zen mode state" for darmanitan. Don't quote me on that though.
 
Slowbro can utilize the Bold nature a lot better and is generally better in this metagame (Slowking can't wall specially well enough).
 
I was battling a Japanese trainer over Wi-fi, and I'm wondering: has Dream World blaziken been released in Japan, or did the trainer obtain his illegitimately?

It's perfectly legal. If you buy the Post-Elite Four guide book in Japan, you get a serial code that unlocks Torchic w/Speed Boost. However, it is male only, thus it cannot be bred. If it appeared in something other than a Dream Ball, it was hacked.

Assuming it ends up in Entree Forest, it could actually be in any non-HGSS ball and still be legal.

I can back this up. You don't have to catch DW pokemon in the Dream Ball provided. I've got a couple in Luxury Balls, to make 'em easier to evolve.

Other balls won't have the 100% catch rate, of course. And since you can't attack the mon you can't get their HP down or sleep them, so you could be at it for a while. But it's definitely possible.
