    Sketching moves is super easy in BW. Just get into a wild double battle on Route 3, have your own pokemon use the move you want, then have Smeargle Sketch it.
  2. Chansey

    Yeah, Leftovers is overrated in doubles. Blissey does seem more common than than Chansey on the GBU, but I really can't see why.

    I can't verify this, but apparently Imposter would do nothing in that situation, so you'd have to waste a turn using Transform instead. Reflecting a move = using that move on the opponent. You would still end up swapping items.

    Move pages on Bulbapedia specify whether the move is reflected by Magic Coat/Magic Bounce. Reflecting Trick would be pointless, so it doesn't happen.

    Transform lets you select a target, actually. Imposter, on the other hand, does use the pokemon you're facing.
  6. Disconnecting in Global Link matches

    There are plenty of players who play Free Mode exclusively, and still disconnect simply because they don't want their loss count to go up, even though nobody else can see it. People really are just that petty.

    It depends on when the user faints. If they faint on the same turn they use Wish, it will still activate at the end of the next turn. If they faint on the turn after they use Wish, it will do nothing, because when a pokemon faints their replacement is sent in after the end of the turn...
  8. The Double Battle Metagame (GBU)

    I would hardly say 25% damage reduction is "almost unnoticeable". Remember that screens are only 33% reduction in doubles. Also, Helping Hand on Jigglypuff is a Dream World move, so it's legal with Friend Guard, although you can't use it with egg moves (like Perish Song). Overall, though, I...

    Considering that pokemon with HM moves can't be transferred between generations, I don't think Rock Climb on Feraligatr is even legal with Torrent, let alone Sheer Force.

    It only reflects status moves. Espeon can still be statused by damaging moves like Thunderbolt.
  11. B&W Research Thread

    Right, sorry, what I meant was that it can only power up your other pokemon in doubles and triples, since it won't do anything when Cherrim is inactive.
  12. B&W Research Thread

    Okay wait, why is everyone asking questions here now instead of the SQSA thread? But to answer this one, anything that prevents crits will still work against Storm Throw or Frost Breath.
  13. B&W Research Thread

    It's for double and triple battles only. As long as Cherrim is out and the sun is up, all your pokemon including Cherrim get a 50% Attack and Special Defense boost.
  14. Slaking

    Removes it, right. That's the point - the best you can do with Slaking is remove its ability, and only a rather limited selection of partners can even do that. With Regigigas, you can replace Slow Start with something that actually helps - Lilligant can give it Chlorophyll, for example. Oh, and...

    I've used Soak to hit Water/Ground pokes with Electric moves, so yes, it will make anything pure Water.
