Whats a nice slow pokemon that resists fire and ground, at the same time (I'm looking at you bronzong)?
Not to my knowledge. If that's the case, just try tapping the touch screen and walking around a bit to see if anything else pops up on the top screen. If not, try surfacing and going down again somewhere else, and trying a ping there, and something should show up.
Yes, your stats should still go down in all of those cases.
Salamance, Dragonite and Flygon all fulfill the typing part--immune to Ground and resist Fire, although Salamance and Flygon aren't exactly slow. Dragonite might work though depending on how slow you need it to be. Aerodactyl also fulfills the typing part, but is blazing fast. Beyond that, all I can think of is stuff like Lunatone and Solrock.
Bulky and RestTalk Gyarados does too. Levitate Bronzong is the norm, while Heatproof Bronzong is the gimmick at best -- although Rain Dance will neutralize the Fire-type weakness that Levitate Bronzong has.
I think it's more than a gimmick. You should look at your team as a whole. If you want to use Bronzong and you've already got two fire weaknessess and three ground immunities, the sensible ability on Bronzong is Heatproof.
Heatproof is rightly the lesser option, because the ground immunity is usually better. But think before clicking Levitate.
will you be able to play online with people who own dpplt if you own hgss?
As in, can you have Wi-Fi battles with DPPt and such if you have HG/SS? Yeah, you can do that just fine.
I looked at Choice Scarf Mewtwo, which is both a lead and a revenge-killer, and came up with a similar idea for Deoxys-S:
@Lum Berry
252SpA/6SpD/252Spe
Timid nature
~Psycho Boost
~Taunt
~Stealth Rock
~Ice Beam
Psycho Boost is used for the likes of Choce Scarf Heracross (which are outrun even if Jolly), which can really save me a match in an already Bug-type weak tier; Ice Beam is obligitory, as Deoxys-S outruns even Jolly Scarf Garchomp; Taunt is both against other leads and Wobbuffet, which will dry out of Mirror Coats due to Deoxys-S's Pressure; SRs are obligitory, as I run this on offensive teams.
Now, would this work?

okay, i was broswing around the NFE articles, and for some God aweful reason, there were 5 strategies for using Kakuna.
and aparantly, the Trapper Counter set was feasable to use on Wobbuffet in Ubers.
can someone please tell me why someone would ever use kakuna competitively in a serious manner?

Probably someone trying to rip off those posts by "The Great Kakhuna Man" which were humorous, if it was by him, thats your answer, its a joke.
Thanks, I think I'll theory out Gyarados, or just try it on shoddy. And the idea was Bronzong is either immune to ground, or not weak to fire. But not both, that was what I was trying to avoid.
To mess with people. Furthermore, did you look at the sets. Even the Ubers Kakuna is ... let's just say not advisable to use.
What is the best place to earn BP in HG SS?
I know this has already been answered but I'm answering it too. I think it's all a joke, because Metapod has no sets even though it could serve as a tank better than Kakuna could.
thank you (and you to Master Ball), it struck me at odd and i thought it might be a joke, but hey, i'm the guy who thinks a monoteam could fair well in competitive battling.
edit: if anybody could, could someone please post a link/directions to read "The Great Kakhuna Man"'s post please?
Opinion? Also, should LO Gengar use Destiny Bond? Should Mewtwo ever use Psychic? Some of you said never, others said it can work, so I'm a bit confused...I looked at Choice Scarf Mewtwo, which is both a lead and a revenge-killer, and came up with a similar idea for Deoxys-S:

Also, what move is generally better for Mewtwo, Thunder or Shadow Ball?
For the analysis thread, can I just post a new set I tried a few and that worked or I have to follow a long list list of rules to have the right to post it? Can I PM moderators to have their approval or anything? The set works really really really well and I am willing to write an analysis about it. How does it work?
EDIT: For the Mewtwo thing, I think the New and Creative Movesets thread is more appropriate for opinions about new sets.

okay quick question, can anyone who battles competitively please explain how things work via how you get into an event and whatnot? because i went on www.pokemon.com, and i couldn't nderstand if they were talking about the traing card game or ds-es.
Coldeye, we've told you time and time again. PSYCHIC ATTACKS SUCK IN UBERS. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS BEFORE IT GETS THROUGH THAT THICK SKULL OF YOURS. Choice Scarf Heracross is uncommon compared to other ubers.I looked at Choice Scarf Mewtwo, which is both a lead and a revenge-killer, and came up with a similar idea for Deoxys-S:

It might work as a gimmick but the additional coverage would be more helpful from the attacking move that you're missing out. See above for my opinion (and several others') on Psychic type moves.
Depending on your team, either Thunder or Shadow Ball would work. However, Thunder is generally the better option for hitting Kyogre.
