Just click on 7: EV Training Preparations and Hotspots and then look at the Pokemon there.

This may be a stupid question, but synchronize only works for natures right? Or is it possible to synchronize IVs as well?
Well damn... I could've used it as a tactic to defeat Stealth Rock and Weather Teams as an alternative to Taunt (Not counting abilities).
Would using Gastro Acid to cancel a Weather ability like SandStream, etc, cause the weather effect to stop, or do you need to counteract it with your own weather move?
Other two EV's don't matter. They technically add .5 to a stat at level 100, but that gets rounded down.
Using a Smeargle as your answer to Stealth Rock and weather teams is not a good idea.
Would a 12/120/70/120/80/108 spread on an Impish Primeape with Brick Break and Overheat while holding a Muscle Band be a good idea?
Damage Calculator supports that the answer is yes. What do you think?

What are you using that for? Sounds like Infernape would do whatever that Primeape is meant to do a million times better, unless this is meant for UU or NU.
EDIT: Or Ubers, but this doesn't sound like an Ubers spread.
Why Muscle Band? Why not Life Orb or even Fist Plate?
Does the local wireless (Colosseum battle) in Heart Gold/Soul Silver allow for auto-leveling to Lv. 100, as Wi-Fi does in the other 3 games? I gather (from the VGC rules thread) that it has auto-level to Lv. 50, but how about 100?
(I'm pretty sure it would be there if Lv. 50 is there, but I'd like to know for sure.)

If you're really intent on using Primeape that way (surprise factor, that's about it), then your EV spread is inefficient. 12 HP / 20 Atk / 136 Def / 120 SpA / 80 SpD / 108 Spe with an Adamant nature saves you 32 EVs.
Although with your EVs spread out that much, Primeape can't hit hard from either side of the spectrum.
Do you actually survive anything notable with the defensive EVs? Primeape's hardly powerful, so it'll probably want all the investment in its attacking stats you can get?
You should try asking that on the wifi forum in this thread.
It gets it after purification in pokemon XD, Mirror Move would be illegal since it's an egg move.
Makes Bullet Punch a 2HKO if brought in off the KO of another Pokemon. Not sure about anything else, he will usually outspeed anything that is not Choice Scarfed or does not have a higher Base Speed, so that means his Brick Break is just at sure-kill range with 120 Attack EVs, same with his Overheat at 120 Evs. Both are at the minimum for destroying Tyranitar and Scizor (respectively) in a single hit with no Defense Boosts on them.
Depends entirely on your team. If you're offensive, you probably want to block at least one screen. If you're stall, opposing screens won't really matter.
And try and bring in your Brick Breaker when it won't be wasting a turn, like if it will force the opponent to switch.
You're putting yourself through a lot of unnecessary trouble. Just use Infernape. Higher HP, one less base Attack (which Close Combat MORE than makes up for), higher Defense and a resistance to Bullet Punch, higher Special Attack and STAB on Overheat, and much higher speed. With Infernape, you don't have to resort to a shaky revenge killer.
Nope, no synching in XD.
And with the whole Primeape discussion, why Brick Break anyway? Primeape learns Close Combat. And surely Fire Punch would be a good choice. I once owned a friend's Forretress with a Primeape Fire Punch, surely that kind of power would be enough to down a Scizor.
Unless my friend's Forretress had crappy Defense, in which case I'm curious as to how well it'd work on things with better defense.
It depends on whether or not XD was released after Emerald, since Emerald was the first to have that and a lot of other mechanics (Magma Armor halving hatch time, etc.).
Also, I read the edit and thought "Of course this is for Pokémon, why the hell is that so funny? .....oh."
oh hell i forgot it was an egg move, and ive got plat, thanks
