There's still the Impish option, but I think with the ability to not be 2KO'd by it's counters anyway, and the ability to Slack Off the damage, use Careful to stand against the special threats abit better.
 
How do you input manual codes into the Action Replay but through the computer, so you don't have to type these long ass codes in manually? There has to be a way, right?
 
Alright, I have a problem regarding egg moves:

So I got Lotech's perfect Togepi with Nasty Plot, right? He evolved it to a Togetic so I could breed with it, and it still had Nasty Plot, and it worked out great.

Fast forward, there is a problem. I took him out at level 60 to relearn Nasty Plot because I needed to use a new Ditto. So I go to the move reteacher, only to find out the Nasty Plot wasn't on the list. What the hell? Everything else was, but Nasty Plot wasn't. Is there something I missed, or do I need to get a new one from Lotech?

with AR, if i imput a bad code...then turn off without saving, will the effects linger?

No, just make sure you dont turn it off while saving, I use to have an AR and I accidently turned it off, and now it doesnt even regester it in my DS.

EDIT:@Marker, you need to get a new one, cause Nasty Plot is an egg move
 
Heres my question: If there is a swarm pokemon, will it appear when there isn't a swarm but with a reduced rate?
I remember in GSC all swarms did was increase the rate... I need a beldum but I don't feel like waiting weeks for a swarm to appear.

No, the Pokemon will not show up when there isn't a swarm. However, there is a quick way to cycle through your Swarms.
* How do I keep or change my daily swarm pokemon? (credit Jiggy):

Changing the clock can also be used to change your swarm Pokemon and keep your Swarm Pokemon indefinately. Here is a link example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuFEh...elated&search=

Steps to change the swarm:
1) Talk to Dawn's sister in Sandgem to find out your swarm Pokemon for the day.
2) If you like your swarm, good. Proceed no further. If you don't like your Swarm, SAVE.
3) Shut off the DS (don't soft-reset) and go to the main menu.
4) Change your DS's clock to 23:59 (11:59 PM).
5) Start the game, and wait until the clock changes to 00:00.
6) Repeat steps 1 - 6 as needed.

Maintaining a swarm:
Sometime before the game's clock reaches 00:00, reset the DS's clock to 00:00. This will prevent the day from "rolling over", and will prevent your Swarm from changing. Keep doing this over and over to maintain your Swarm as long as you wish.

How do you get Baton Pass onto Shedinja? I know it can't BP it's SDs, but it's still a useful move (don't question the strategy!!! :P). The Sheddy analysis lists BP OR Agility OR Baton Pass as options, but I can't find Baton Pass anywhere on either the Nincada or Shedinja movepools. How is it possible?

Shedinja copies Ninjask's moveset. So level Nincada to 45, evolve to Ninjask, let it learn BP. Voila.
 
What is the chance of a critical hit?
If both Kyogre and Groudon are both sent out at the beginning of the battle, what factor determines which ability affects the field?

Thank you very much.

Whichever one's faster will have its weather come first, then the slower one's weather overrides it.
 
When SR after getting the egg from the old man, SR for IVs
does the IVs passed from the parents stay constant?

ALSO
for SR hatching, i read that
Raikou said:
Save when the old man has an egg, before you pick it up. Pick it up, hatch it to check gender/nature/ability, and continue the process until you get the right combo. Then soft reset for different IV's.

When is gender/nature/ability determined? when old man has egg available for pickup? or when u get the egg from the old man

How do you SR for IVs after getting the right nature/ability if you have already hatched the egg to check the nature/ability?

Nasty plot is an egg move, the move relearner doesn't let you remember egg moves nor pre-evolution moves, only level up moves of the current evolution level of the pokemon you show to him.

1- Nope, everytime you soft reset in front of the old man and before taking the egg from him the IVs will change but the nature/ability stays the same.
2- When the old man has egg available for pickup, before you pick it from him.
3- You save in front of the old man when he is facing right (he has an egg), after saving you take the egg, hatch it, check nature, ability and IVs and if you like the nature and ability but not the IVs you reset and take the same egg again to get new IVs but the same nature/ability.
If you didn't like the nature/ability don't reset after hatching the egg and save in front of the old man if he has a new egg for you, rinse and repeat.
 
Can I use the "cartridge insert method" (for example, putting Emerald in the gameboy advance slot so that I can find wild Shuckle) before I have the national dexter and have beaten the game?
 
Mold Breaker works on what?
I'm asking because of:
Cacturne hits Rampardos with sandstorm up.Rampardos is down...but Cacturne was buffeted by Sandstorm and dies togehter.

That's new to me.
 
I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but what's the big deal with using Double Team in competitive play? I get the idea that most people don't like Double Team, like it's too powerful or something... But to that I say this: Double Team can be hazed or psuedo-hazed away, regardless, just like stat boosts. That doesn't seem over-powered to me.
