Dark:While trapped, Im pretty sure no one can use contact moves. Also it sounds like the whirlpool must be used again before it fades to keep up.

It means it can be disrupted by things like confusion and multi hit moves are far as I'm aware.
Can we rename the Tournament tag to Gyms and apply it to all current Gym Leader matches and future ones? I don't see there being another tourney for a long time and it will make finding Gym matches to spy on much easier for me.
A gym tag is being worked on iirc. Deck PM'd the appropriate user a while ago, I think.
I seem to be unable to find this anywhere. Is it possible for me to stop evolution of a pokemon at full ECs for the purpose of being able to participate in a lower tier in battle hall? So for example, I have a mime jr. that is going to get full ECs when it gets out of a battle. Can I prevent evolution and just keep it as mime jr to get into tier 1 battle hall? Also if I can, would I be able to get 3 MCs from future battles as Mime Jr?
This is written when I'm feeling very groggy from writing a paper so just give me a heads up if above doesn't make sense.

Evolution is voluntary, and is not in effect until claimed.
So I can claim ECs up to full and qualify for 3 MCs from battles and not claim evo?
:) thanks guys.

Okay, that was a while ago, but do I still get a free nature/HP change on all my mons that were in the ASB before that was posted? And I heard that you can buy nature changes now. Is that true and if so, how much do they cost?

In one of my matches, Riolu dodges a 75% accurate Sleep Powder with a 56% chance to avoid. However in the same match, Gravity is in effect.
Do you calculate Gravity on the attack itself before dodge (the resulting hit would be (75*1.67)-56=69%)? Or do you calculate Gravity after the dodge chance (So the resulting hit would be (75-56)*1.67 = ~19%)?
Thanks.

Can we get final word on this? Aura Sphere and crew hits through Fly/Dig/etc. Y/N?
When the need for an approver exists, Kaxtar addresses the situation.
If I have a Rhyperior and a Geodude in play, can I combine Rhy's Rock Blast with Geodude's Double-Edge? How would such a combination even work?
Lou, I'd PM the ref and ask their opinion. With a complicated combo like that (Rhyperior launches Geodude?) it's probably best to run it by the ref beforehand, so you don't wind up Struggling.
If I were to ref it, I'd probably allow it if you described what you were doing well enough.
I'd RNG the number of hits for Rock Blast, subtract one, as Rhy is launching Geodude, then ref the remaining hits normally.
For the Double Edge, I'd...have to factor for Geodude's increased velocity, maybe using Rhyperior's attack in combination with Geodude's?
I'm tired, maybe I'm over-complicating things...
Rhyperior is using Rock Blast, AKA throwing rocks at the foe.
Geodude is a rock.
Assuming Geodude weighs roughly the same as a single rock, I'd take the damage of a single hit of Rock Blast and add it to Geodude's Double-Edge.
This is all the hypothetical ramblings of the very tired.
EDIT: You don't even have a Rhyperior or a Geodude.

I'm not doing any matches where I have such a combo available, either. I was asking so we'd finally know the answer over in IRC.
Admitteddy, I'm one of the most tolerant of this, but if it makes sense I would allow it. +3Damage or BAP for one or both moves is usually a solid way of doing it.

What is the rule on Brick Break in Brawls - if it's used at all, does it break the screen, or does it specifically have to target a mon protected by it?

It would be very strange if it broke a screen it did not hit.
Just looking for codification, thanks.
