I have a question I put a Rhydon on the GTS it had protector I offered it up for lv 9 > Abomasnow then I did a trade by seek.Following that I tried to take Rhydon back and then I waited until the clock thingy turned about 9 time time. Then I switched it off so I would have one copy in my PC and one on the GTS. When I went back it showed deposit Pokemon as if nothing was there. WTF is going on? AND ITS NOT IN MY BOX IT LIKE IT DONE A HOUDINI >_>

I think you are confusing the GTS evolution trick and cloning.

To evolve your Rhydon, I beleive you put it up for something ridiculous, like you did, and then complete an easy trade through 'seek'. After completing the trade, the Rhydon should evolve when you try to take it back.

The cloning trick (also performed incorrectly), requires you do what you did, but while depositing the pokemon, not withdrawing. After however many turns, shut off your DS, and there now should be two pokemon. Repeat if necessary.

If you withdrew a pokemon from the GTS, it will automatically go to your party, and if that's full, it will go to the first empty space in your PC boxes.
 
Turn One:
Breloom picks Protect
Blissey Switches out for Gliscor
Breloom's Protect fails

Turn Two:
Breloom picks Protect
Gliscor picks Arial Ace

Does Protect always work for the Breloom on turn two? And what percent of the time does it not work after you use it successfully the turn before?
 
Turn 2:
Protect has a 50% chance of working

Whether it succeeds or not:
Turn 3:
Protect has a 25% chance of working.

T4: 12.5%
T5: 6.25%
etc etc. halving each time.
 
i'm looking for a good pokemon to lead my team, specifically a statuser, but i'm havin difficulty choosing one thats effective...any suggestions for a good leading pokemon in general?
 
On Protect, I may have been watching too many YouTube videos of PBR, but I've seen cases where folks always get a second Protect if the first Protect fails on a switch. I don't know if the YouTube folks just get extremely lucky, but it seemed to happen too often.
 
Extremely lucky?

50% chance. Thats like the chance of someone missing a guy who has used Double Team 3 times in a row.

Na man, the 2nd turn of Protect is pretty darn cool.
 
Can someone direct me to a place to check the legitimacy of celebi? I have a few that LOOK like something in japanese (caught in pokeball, Same Original trainer) but I do not know what "Agate" is in Japanese. Can someone give me a picture of an Agate celebi?

As someone else already mentioned, Protect\Detect always fails on a switch (except in 2v2), thus resetting the chance of success next Protect to 100%.
 
Question about EV's (sorry, i'm sort of new to these)
Do they need to be done evenly before a level up? For example, if i gained 5 EV's then level upped, will the one carry over or will it disappear? And also, can you train in two stats at once? Eg: speed and attack; or do they need to be done separately?
