Light Ball Question. I assume this is the case, but couldn't find any verification elsewhere: I put a light ball on my 94atk Pikachu, and the stat didn't change. I am supposing that the light ball bumps the stat up to 188, but I am just unable to see that number in the Pokemon Summary. Is this...

Noob Out!! If I max my EV's I'm good to use rare candy right? I just have a ton of them and want to use them rather than sell, however they have a bad rap. Also, for in-game battle tower use mainly, I want to make a snorlax for a challenge, and want a decent moveset. I have heard that Body...

so in the case of my maxed out speed ev, I faint a poke giving one speed, and I would normally gain 1 speed and 4 attack, because the speed EV's are maxed, I get only 4 attack, or none at all?

Thanks for the advice. Now, would you say that Leafeon is a good choice for the swap, or would there be something else to use. I'm not married to the whole baton pass thing, I am, however intrigued by the ability to set up a sub and let another poke set up. thanks,

Hey, Thanks so much for the first response! I actually thought the Lum would work well with the whole Outrage scenario, and liked how that seemed to play out. The 3x ground resist is an issue, now, would a different lead work, to remove the ground issue of the start? Or should something else...

Foreword: Well, this is indeed my first post on Smogon. Needless to say, I am quite intimidated, as I know that there are many, many trainers here who have umpteen times the experience and wisdom that I do. Knowing this, I would like to say first off, that I am here humbly, showing a team...
