If a pokemon with Anger Point hits itself and it is a critical hit,will the ability activate?

 

[Espeon65]

Can I have more than one battle if i have a 3v3 going and only have 3 pokemon? I assume the answer is no, but I would like to clarify. Thanks in advance!

You are allowed to have up to three standard Battle Tower (BT) battles of any size at any time, to prevent ASB moving at a snail's pace. You are also allowed to challenge in addition any number of Roleplays (RPs), one of each type at a time. Though the only RP that you could have a shot at with NFE is Battle Hall, so

It should be added that you can't have a pokemon in a Legend Run and anything else at the same time.

So, even though all three of my pokemon are technically in a battle, they can be in another?

 

[danmantincan]

Yes

 

[Matezoide]

Thats correct.

Concerning Sketch on Necturine, on the first instance of getting the move do I get a free move or do I purchase a move later?

If I steamroll somebody and didn't get to send out a poke in the battle, can i equip that poke with a training item after the conclusion of the battle?

As far as i know,No.

If an Adamant Escavalier has a Link Cable attached, would its stats be 7/5/1/5?

 

[Stratos]

Yes, but its movepool would still suck *shrug*

 

[The Wanderer]

In a tourney battle I'm reffing, there's a bit of a dispute regarding camouflage - would it turn the pokemon normal-type?

 

[Objection]

From what I've gathered on IRC, Camouflage would change the user to either Normal-type or Ground-type in the tourney arena, but nobody so far seems to know for sure which it is.

 

[Ullar]

I would say Normal, because Ground-type only works in a desert or similar area.

 

[Yarnus of Bethany]

It's Normal, or at least it was when I tried to camouflage my Deering on the dirt part to turn it ground type.

 

[Stratos]

It is, in fact, Normal. ASB arena follows all rules of the Wifi Battle Arena.

 

[Complications]

If two different-type attacks used in a combo are both passive, can I chose the combo type?

 

[AOPSUser]

ONLY if they are the same BAP. Otherwise whichever move has higher BAP prevails.

 

[Stratos]

That ruling was recently edited - in fact the combo would become typeless.

 

[deadfox081]

I was under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that only one mon could be switched out in a switch phase for a Doubles battle and not both at the same time. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

Denying this. When you initiate a switch phase or counterswitch during someone else's switch phase, you may switch any number of mons as long as the mons you're switching are not under the effect of trapping or partial trapping moves.

Concerning Sketch on Necturine, on the first instance of getting the move [Sketch] do I get a free move or do I purchase a move later?

I'd sorta like an answer or a link to the material where i can get it

 

[Yarnus of Bethany]

Neither. You have to actually sketch it in a battle or RP. If you want to get it V-create, for example, you have to fight Lucy's Rayquaza in Gold Rank.

On the arena Unown Soup, if you order, Unown F (Flare Blitz), but it's for your third turn, and then your opponent orders Unown F (Fly) for their first turn move what happens? Because if it's that I can't do anthing on turn 3 that's retarded. (Not that I don't trust you, Yarnus, just really hope your wrong)
