Of course they don't! And if they would it would really really really surprise me if this has any competitive difference. Who told you that?
 
I got this looking through the Creative move set thread. Perhaps, I'm miss interpreting it (which is probably the case).

It's just a matter of... Well, not exactly preference, and not exactly a rule, but I can't think of the exact term for it at the moment... Anyways, it's just something that most/all moveset writers follow that the most important/distinguishing moves are placed first on the list, with the ones that have multiple alternatives are usually placed last in the list. Also, non-damaging/support moves (i.e., Stealth Rocks, Spikes, WoW, T.Wave, Knock Off, Encore, etc.) and damaging moves tend to be grouped together if possible.
 
to view the leader board go to the smogon main page then click on shddy battle then click on leader board

to find your personal stats find your name in the list on shoddy and highlight it then right click and choose "view record"
 
No. Remember that the damage you get is recoil, not automatic. Kind of like double edge, you miss but you dont lose HP.(Im talking to the person above this post)
 
Sorry for another question, and even more sorry it's a platinum question but If I trade a Rotom over from my Diamond game, can I change its form even If I haven't beaten the game yet? Cuz Rotom W is cool ...

I believe so. You just need the Wonder Card, access to the location, and have cleared out the Galactic Building. You can also catch Rotom much earlier on, after these criteria are met. I don't know if you have to catch it first, before you have access to the secret room.

I'm guessing this is for UU, so I'd say HP Rock. It hits fire and ice types hard, and gives you something to hit waters neutral with. Also, it hits things that hail teams rarely have a check for, such as Arcanine and Magmortar.
 
What is a good EV spread and moveset for a Rain Dancing Crobat? The guide to Rain teams mentions Crobat as a good lead, but the analysis only has it under "Other Options". I should probably put a lot into Defense, because Crobat's typing benefits most from resistance to Bug (Megahorn), Fighting, and Ground (except while Roosting). However, I don't know specifically how much EVs to put into each stat.

Rain Dance is a no-brainer, Roost should help to recover its health if it needs to replenish rain, Taunt can shut down Stealth Rock leads, and U-Turn provides a switch with a small amount of damage. It's a shame it suffers from the "4-moveslot syndrome", because I wouldn't mind teaching it Brave Bird. . .
 
What would happen if you were in a 2vs2 battle and used magic coat on a dark void??
lets say it played out something like this:
opponent: bronzong & smeargle
you: something slow and something fast... lets say; sableye and lopunny

lopunny uses magic coat
then smeargle uses dark void (and lets say it would hit both of you)

now lopunny is faster, so void hits it 1st. Does it then, reflect it back at both opponents?? or does it reflect back at smeargle then hit your sableye?
