Does anyone have a list of trainers and which variants of pokemon they use in the HG/Pt Battle Tower?

Okay. I figured I'd use Starmie since it's got an Ice resist and great speed. Now, I'm wondering, when Starmie is the lead with TrickScarf, should I trick as soon as I send it out, or should I attack the AI's lead if it's a type weak to Boltbeam/Surf? Especially if the lead is something fast...

It's actually Explosion/Meteor Mash/Thunderpunch/EQ, but I can change that. I'm also interested in learning why you want a psychic-type TrickScarf lead. I assume it's got something to do with the AI?

Let's say I have a poke in the day care with a perfect IV in HP and Defense. The poke that is being breeded with the first only has a perfect IV in Attack. Poke #1 has the power item to pass down HP, and the other has the power item to pass down the Attack IV. What are the chances that the...

Let's say there's two pokemon at level 50 with a base 100 stat. Said stat has 252 EVs invested, and both pokes have a nature that boosts this stat. Now, one poke has an IV of 0 for the stat, and the other has 31. How much of a difference in the stats will there be?

Hey shofu, I really like your battle vids. Do you a FC for a gen IV game you can share with me? So that we can battle sometime?

I figured my team of a Scarfed P-Z, CB Metagross, and SubChomp was a bit slow. I'm thinking of replacing Porygon-Z with a Twave/Surf/Boltbeam Starmie @ Expert Belt, and Meta with a Bullet Punch/SD/Bug Bite/Brick Break Scizor. Should I do that, or is my team good as-is?

Would you guys say that slapping Substitute on an SD/EQ/Outrage Garchomp for the Battle Tower is a good idea?

How's this for a Battle Tower team? Vaporeon @ Leftovers Surf Baton Pass Acid Armor Substitute Porygon-Z @ Life Orb Tri Attack Thunderbolt Ice Beam Agility Garchomp @ Focus Sash Outrage Fire Fang Earthquake Swords Dance

Right now, I'm using a Garchomp in the Battle Hall with perfect HP, Attack, and Speed IVs, the same moveset as the record holder (Outrage/SD/EQ/Fire Fang), with EVs all in Attack and Speed. It's got a Naive Nature, unless there's a reliable way to pass on more than one EV from a parent. It's...

What's an easy way to pass on IVs? Namely, the Attack IV.

I have two questions: -When transferring a pokemon caught in HG/SS to D/P/Pt, does it still say it was actually found in Johto? Because I've heard they've replaced Johto with "Faraway Place", and "Johto" was a beta term. -Can Japanese event pokemon activate in-game events in games from...

Really, because I thought I once saw a lv. 50 option.

I have a few basic questions. Pardon me for my ignorance, but I have a couple of questions tthat I hope some experts like you guys could I answer. 1. I am aware you cannot bring Origin Forme Giratina into the Union Room. But can you use it on Wi-Fi, or wirelessly? Can you even battle with a...

So if the foe is holding a berry, Pluck only doubles the base power of the attack, while Bug Bite gets the berry. Hm. I thought they did the same thing, but now I know!

With Scizor getting Bug Bite and having technician, the damage calculation should go like this: 60 x 1.5 Technician = 90 90 + (60 x 1.5 STAB) = 120 Is this correct? If so, this basically means scizor gets a 120 powered attack, and if the foe is holding a berry, the attack power will go...

You'd figure that GameFreak would put in tutors for old G/S moves that aren't TMs anymore, like Zap Cannon and Curse. Kind of sad, considering one of the moves is sting shot. Well, GF DID put in Uproar in Platinum. Regardless, anyone psyched for Pain Split Porygon-Z?

I saw on Heracross' page that if you have a Flame Orb + Guts + Swords Dance, the attack is tripled. First thing, doesn't a burn cut attack in half? Second, even if the burn from the Flame Orb didn't reduce attack, Guts only increases attack by 50% under a condition. So it would be like this...

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Platinum_Version#Connectivity "[Platinum] retains the same compatibility with Generation III games, Pokémon Battle Revolution and My Pokémon Ranch (Japan only) as its predecessors." Maybe NOA will have the same thing happen here?

I know we aren't able to use Origin Giratina and Skymin on Platinum WiFi, but Bulbapedia says that Ninty issued a patch for Pokemon Battle Revolution that allowed the Rotom formes, Skymin, and Origintina to be used, ala Pokemon Ranch. Is it so?
