Data Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer (ASB Version)

If the Shell Smash user goes after the Simple Beam user, then I believe so. That said, it would also give permanent -2 to both defences, it would negate the normal abilities of the mon for 6 actions (which in most cases you don't want) and it still costs 20 energy.
 
If Pursuit is used on an action after, and not immediately, after Double Team is used, would it still have a guaranteed hit?
 
No, unless your opponent also uses an evasive action when you use Pursuit (like Dig or Teleport), since they a no longer scaping from your attacks, also Pursuit would have the regular 4 BAP

To clarify:

IF Pursuit it's used on the same action as Double Team it gets 8 BAP and makes clones go away
IF Pursuit it's NOT used on the same action as Double Team it gets 4 BAP and has to hit to make the clones disappear
.
 
Well, Pursuit would have 8 BAP if, on the turn it is used, the opponent uses an evasive action (check Pursuit's description in the Data Audit Thread for a near-complete list). If they used Double Team on action 1 and something non-evasive (eg, Flamethrower) on action 2 and you used Pursuit on action 2, then Pursuit would have 4 BAP and it wouldn't get a guaranteed hit.
 
Yes Wanderer, rewards are given. The only thing lost to the winner is the KOC you would get if the battle ended normally. (the ref also gets the normal amount of UC through DQ)

Engedit: The referee does not get the UC he/she would've gotten through reffing the entire match. Refer to here, specifically the referee compensation section, although it may change in the future.
 
Can a Pokemon activate a sub in successive actions even while Tormented? If not, will the Pokemon fail to pull off the sub or just resume with its normal commands?

Staryu uses Surf ~ Scald ~ Surf against a Vullaby, with the substitution of Thunder if Vullaby uses Fly.

Vullaby then counter orders with Torment ~ Fly ~ Fly, succesfully Tormenting Staryu on A1.

Does Staryu still use Thunder on A3 even though its Tormented, or does it just use Surf?
 
It activates, since the sub condition is met, but the second consecutive triggering of the sub results in a failed attack, iirc.
 
After turning my Rotom-H into a Rotom-W, do I still have the appliance to turn Rotom into Rotom-H again? Or do I have to spend 7 CC every time I want to change appliance?
 
Yes if you buy one of the rotom appliances then you retain the appliance to take into future battles, BUT if the rotom got into thed appliance through an arena effect then the appliancde is lost upon switching
 
no, actually I am pretty damn sure that once all the Pokemon on one side of the field have fainted, no more Pokemon perform actions, but the end-of-actions effects (like Poison, Leech Seed, etc.) occur for that action, and then the end-of-round effects (like weather duration decreasing of Perish Song). If both Pokemon in a 1v1 faint, then it's a tie and they each get KOC.
 
If a Pokemon currently has Double Team clones and gets hit while using Protect, do the clones dissipate? That issue came up here, and I assumed that it should be reffed as if it was a normal hit, and the clones dissipate while the actual Pokemon suffers the damage.
 
Protect prevents the attack from connecting. It can be presumed that the clones also appear to be "protecting."
 
1. When I attempting to dodge, if the opponent is paralyzed, is their speed before or after paralysis factored in?

2. Are we allowed to purchase BW2 move tutor moves for non-CAPmons? Bisharp is wanting that Dual Chop ;)

Since paralysis actually affects the speed stat, I would say after. Same with any speed boosts/drops from other sources.

Yes. For 2 MC apiece. And I think you can purchase them for CAP mons too.
 
Sooo, I was wondering what the BW2 tutors mean for CAP. How much is potentially gonna be charged for them (hopefully less than previous-gen tutors)? And when are they expected to be implemented? I personally am excited for some of the new moves we're getting.
 
DAT description of Rest said:
Rest will cure any new status received on an action it is still resting

Does this mean that they will be cured instantly, or they will be cured on the next action of Rest? Does this also apply of they will wake up the next action? Sorry if this comes off as blatantly stupid.

Cured at the end of the current action, i.e. The same time rest recovery applies.
