how do I put Move Tutor moves on a new pokemon? Do I replace TMs or Egg Moves??
In a multi-battle, can you change targets if your attack is encored?
No limits, iirc.
Can attacks on the round after Lock-on hit the target even if the target uses a damaging evasive move.
EG.
Magnezone
Lock-on, Zap Cannon
Ambipom
Focus Punch, Dig
Would the Zap Cannon hit?

I guess that means Lock-On'd things can hit.Dig DAT Description said:
Bulbapedia confirms this. Moves used after Lock-On or Mind Reader act as though the user has No Guard.
What does it mean to have superior senses?(Ex: Superior senses in volcanic or brushfire areas.)
I actually found out no, so my hall is over!
Encore encores the last successful move; Cooldown does not count. If it was a combo that was the last successful, then the second move listed in the combo gets encored, iirc.
Incorrect. The entire combo gets encored and the pokemon is forced to alternate between that combo and cooldown for the duration of the encore.
Not an accurate, official ruling, but...
[BOX]10:18:31: <iar> You can Encore a Pokemon into a combo, right?
10:18:39: <Wobba> Yes
10:18:43: <Wobba> Iirc
10:19:19: <iar> other opinions?
10:20:08: <Wobba> Ask the ref
10:20:20: <EspyOwner> does Bug resist Poison in 5th gen
10:20:28: <iar> no, iirc
10:20:29: <Destiny_Warrior> hmm?
10:20:34: <Destiny_Warrior> encoring a combo was once ruled
10:20:37: <Destiny_Warrior> to be impossible
10:20:39: <Destiny_Warrior> iirc
10:20:46: <EspyOwner> it encores the last move in the combo
10:20:50: <EspyOwner> I thought
10:21:02: <Destiny_Warrior> you can't encore a combo as such, I know that much
10:21:12: <Wobba> Then ragnarokalex misinformed me
10:21:28: <Destiny_Warrior> he's clearly a misinformer[/BOX]
EDIT: I stand corrected...
[BOX]19:30 <IAR> Can you be encored into a combo
19:35 <Objection> yes IAR
19:35 <IAR> It was more directed at Alch... >_>
19:35 <Objection> you are then forced to alternate between that combo and cooldown for the duration of the encore
19:35 <Objection> oh
19:36 <IAR> It is one of those things that no one has an official ruling for as of yet
19:36 <IAR> well, a concrete one anyways
19:37 <Objection> pretty sure there was a ruling about it actually
19:37 <IAR> well if there is one
19:38 <IAR> it is obviously unwritten
19:38 Destiny_Warrior writes it
19:38 <Destiny_Warrior> there
19:39 <IAR> 6.6
19:45 <Alch> Lol
19:45 <Alch> Obrejection
19:45 <Alch> He is correc though.
19:46 <Alch> *correct[/BOX]
Explaination of Question: There seems to be a lack of avalible referees right now. Several battles in the Battle Tower seem to be piling up because no refs are open to taking them. I would like to help clear this growing pile.
Question: How does one sign up to be a referee?
Question: How does one sign up to be a referee?
Technically, you do not really need to do anything to sign up to be a referee, just post in tower saying that you want to ref User X & User Y, & that is pretty much it. Though it is recommended that you post in the Referee Resource Thread saying that you want to be a ref, following the given template.
Another question.
Would this sub be allowed?
IF: Bulbassaur uses Leech-Seed, use Flamethrower to destroy it and push back.
Basicaly,i want to know if it is acceptable to attack the opponent`s moves in order to stop them.
On a side note,are we allowed to specify more than one move during a sub?
