That doesn't make any sense, please rephrase it.
If you really like him and he complements your team... Really, he's probably going to be BL. If you like him, and can make him work, go for it. If not, nobody's going to try and convince you.
I've seen it used to start with. It can definitely work. I'd say it's more of a later thing though. I've never used it, but looks like a special sweeper. Probably best once Blissey is out.
I think you mean egg move. The answer is yes.
It means you're on "auto-pickup" mode. Normally you would go to a menu when you select a Pokemon. When the cursor is yellow (or gold, as I'd like to think), Pokemon are automatically deposited/withdrawn/pickedup with no menu.

I've heard conflicting reports about whether Power Items are affected by Pokerus. I know the Macho Brace is, but Power Items?
Example, with Power Bracer and fainting a Bidoof
If it's affected by Pokerus...
(1+4) * 2 = 10 HP EV's
If it's not affected by Pokerus...
(1*2)+4 = 6 HP EV's
I was just wondering. What is correct?
When breeding for an egg move and good IVs, should you try to breed for the IVs first, or the egg move. For example, I am trying to get a Squirtle with Haze and good IV's, should I try to get a female Squirtle with good IV's and then breed it with a male one with Haze? Sorry if it is a noob question or if nobody understands what I'm saying.
Should I use my relaxed Cresselia (+def/-spd) or try to get a bold/calm one?
Sleep doesn't work like freeze. The pokemon that's put to sleep sleeps for anywhere from 1 to 7 turns, which is randomly decided when its first put to sleep.
If its IVs are great, I'd stick with it. You aren't going to be using it for speed anyway.
Thanks! So freeze is a percentage chance?
Does legitness of parents affect the everstone/nature passing trick? This sounds like a stupid question, but my hacked male is breeding with a legit female holding an everstone and I think 2 out of the 30+ eggs I've hatched from them so far have had the same nature as the female holding the everstone.
Works but not for lv100s. Still recalculates stats but at Lv100 pokemon no longer gain EXP or EVs
Spieks doesn't hit Levitating or Flying types, but will always do 25% damage to pokemon it hits. Stealth Rock hits everything, but does a base dmaage of 12.5% and is then affected by typing. For example, Charizard, which is 4x weak to rock, will do 50% damage from Stealth Rock, while Blissey, which gets neutral from rock, will get 12.5% damage done to it.
EDIT: Spikes only does 25% afetr 3 layers have been layed down. Thats another con, Spieks takes 3 turn to set it up to its best form, Stealth Rock only takes one.
