Just played a game against someone, turn 6 there is his Gyarados and G-Weezing on the field against my Gastrodon. G-Weezing has neutralizing gas. Gyarados attacks, Gastrodons Storm Drain activates. I then Earth Power G-Weezing, KO'ing. Weezing leaving the field activates Gyarados's Intimidate...

Do we know if Shield Dust protects against the secondary effects of Dynamax moves? That's both the stat reducing moves and status effects (eg; G-Max Befuddle)? I imagine not but it'd be good to know for certain.

I'm wondering about specifics with Imposter Ditto. I know that he copies the stats of the Pokémon he transforms into, do Ditto's IV's/nature make any difference after he's transformed? I heard HP remains the same, so presumably that is important, but if he copies all the other stats then the...

The first option is to make sure you're using a water type that doesn't mind about the sun so much -Azumarill for example can Play Rough, or Rotom-W (or H, that also resists Fire so might work as well?) can use Thunderbolt. You could also try a Ground type instead -Garchomp is overused (heavily...

Burning it is good, even if it's not a physical variant, as it's something it can only block with Substitute and causes consistent damage even if they do manage to get a Sub up afterward. Leechseed works in a similar way. Otherwise I'd say it's simply about predicting and hitting with a powerful...

That's great, thanks. Edit: Another question, does Kings Shield protect a Substitute against breakages? I know Protect does, but Kings Shield plays under different rules.

If a Pokémon has Sap Sipper as an ability and is also holding a Lum berry, would a Grass type status move (eg; Spore) activate the ability or the Lum? It's not a huge thing but could be useful to know in certain situations.

Looking for a perfect 6 IV Ditto (although I'd settle for 5 IV). I know, that's potentially a big ask, but I'm getting fed up with having to rotate through 4 or 5 different Dittos each time I breed a new 'mon and now that Pokébank is out everywhere and cloning is a thing again maybe someone has...

I think it's the same rules as VGC. They did hide them really well in the terms and conditions though, took me a good while to find.

I think they just need to have more moves that get rid of them, ideally with a variety of types behind them. Maybe give Gust a secondary effect so it becomes a flying type 'rapid spin'?

Virizion, yeah, that's fine, although i'm going in abit and as I said I don't have wifi access during the week, so it'll either have to be within the next hour or next week. Ames, currently i'm building a team for the VGC so if you have a good Jolly Terrakoin or Modest/Timid Thundurus...

Note: I primarily play VGC (although have Pokémon for trade that anyone might be interested in) and because of that I'm on Nugget Bridge far more than I am here. As such my trade thread there is more likely to be up to date. Feel free to have a look...

Wow, this is awesome of you. I'm going to UK's Birmingham VGC and the Terrakoin would be a great help (i've already got one I caught myself, but I can't RNG so it's been soft-resetted for and as such is abit iffy IV wise). I only have access to wifi at weekends so it might have to wait until...

I'm in, Masters I suppose. Gotta defend my top 32 spot :P. Or just get as far as I can and have a good time, either is good with me ^_^
