1st: No

2nd: No

3rd: It's where you put a trade-evo Pokemon into the GTS, and then take it out. Apparently the game counts this as trading, so it evolves. But, as Captain Awesome said, you need to do another trade after wards (atleast, that's the gist I got)

Seriously, what does IIRC mean?

I already told you, it's 'If I recall/remember correctly'
 
Heatran/Tangrowth are basically never leads. But should the need arise, Aerial Ace covers Tangrowth, Heatran is a counter, I guess, unless you can OHKO with Rock Smash.

IIRC means 'If I recall correctly'

The 'Fat' thing in the quotes is default, I don't know why, probably an inside joke.
Oh okey,thanks, anyways, just another question, anybody know whether Iron Fist is 50 or 30%?
 
Gothic, You need to complete a different GTS trade after you pick the pokemon up for offer.
Son of a bitch >.< so that's why it didn't work. So let me get this straight, After I put said pokemon up for offer, I have to make a trade with someone then take the pokemon that I'm offering back before it get's taken, right?
 
Iron Fist boosts Sky Uppercut and any move that has 'punch' in it's name by 1.3x

Yes. Try asking for something like Level 9 Bibarel, no one likes it so no one will be bothered to hack one.
 
After crunching the numbers, a Jolly Life Orb Aerodatyl with 30 Attack IV will ALWAYS OHKO Weavile with 4 HP EVs and a 31 IV in HP/Defense with it's Rock Smash. Assuming Aerodactyl has a 29 IV or lower, the OHKO isn't guaranteed. And so, here's a set I think will deal with the most common leads:

Aerodactyl @ Life Orb ** Antidactyl
Jolly Nature (-Special Attack, +Speed)
EVs: 4 HP/252 Attack/252 Speed
Trait: Pressure, Rock Head is useless
- Rock Slide
- Aerial Ace
- Rock Smash
- Thunder Fang

Deals with the most common leads except for Electivire in the Gyaravire combo. An IV of 20 in Speed should still outrun Weavile.


Thoughts? Comments? Concerns?
 
Yeah, I figured as much, but what about when you can't import from FR/LG? I don't know what else wold be options. Plus, Rock Smash deals with Tyranitar, STAB Rock Slide does is 102.5 I think, SE Rock Smash is 160.
 
Bronzong @ Leftovers
Bold | 252 HP, 228 Def, 30 Sp.Att
Calm Mind
Psychic
Grass Knot
Rest

I just realized, wouldn't something like Calm be better for the Sp Def Boost incase you don't get a chance to set up? Also, could you maybe take some Def Ev's for Sp Def? (I'm really more concerned about the Sp Def and not getting a chance to set up Calm Mind)

But on Tyranitar you'd probably want to just Earthquake, which would be 200 base power.

Pursuit or Ice Fang is the way to go if you can't get Double Edge, imo.

Edit: Nvm, noticed you had no Earthquake on that set. You need that. Add it instead of Rock Smash/Pursuit/Ice Fang.

Don't worry, nothing's going to OHKO Bronzong. If you're getting Wish support, you are going to get in a Calm Mind.
 
do pokemon with the smiley faces instead of the big pkrs sign still get double exp. and double EVs?

Pokerus only ever gives double EVs, not double EXP. Having said that, Pokémon with the smiley face continue to earn double EVs, but can't spread Pokérus to other Pokémon any longer.
