Two questions... If you use Focus Punch on Skarmory when they select Whirlwhind... does the Focus Punch hit Skarmory first because she doesn't attack you.. or do u just get whirlwinded away?

For calculating hidden power BP, is it like GSC. Meaning if your speed and special IVs just have to be all above 15 or does it have to be like the 31/30/30/31/30/30 kinda thing we saw on netbattle in adv.
 
Revenge killing is like: You can't switch Zam into CBTar. But Metagross is at such low health, and probably won't do anything else, so you send it in. Then Gross is OHKOd, you send in Zam, and Tar runs in fear of Energy Ball/Focus Bomb/HP Fight.

Like that. How does Mewtwo learn Selfdestruct?

power bracer
2 + 4 = 6
2 * 4 = 8

Which of this does Power Bracer?

2 + 4= 6, they all add 4 to the base amount of evs gained

Also if you add pokerus into the mix it doubles the amount after power item is applied
example- power bracer and pokerus on a pokemon that killed a gyarados

2 (base) + 4 (power bracer)= 6 x 2 (pokerus) = 12 evs for one gyarados

Mewtwo learns Selfdestruct via XD move tutor, iirc.
 
sleep clause question: i put one of my opponents pokemon to sleep, then he uses rest on another pokemon, is that breaking sleep clause

also sleep calsue is : only one of your opponents pokemon can be put to sleep by you, does that mean if my opponent rested one of his pokemon,, can i put asleep another?

Yes and yes.

No on the first question. If your Butterfree uses Sleep Powder and puts the foes Rhyperior to sleep, and then your foe switches to Snorlax and uses Rest, it is not breaking Sleep Clause. It would be ridiculous if it did, because it would make everybody and their mom scared to use sleep moves.

Sleep Clause only works when you put 2 or more of your foe's Pokemon to sleep. If they inflict sleep upon themselves, it doesn't count.
 
Does putting a pokemon in the box without filling out all 510 EV's recalculate their stats? I heard it does, but I accidentally put my Azelf into the box onceI finished it's 36 HP/252 SpAtk/220 Spd, which is 508 out of 510. I took it out, and nothing changed. (Level 55 BTW, not level 100) Was I told false information?

You were fed false information.

The only way to destroy EVs is to feed EV-reducing berries.
 
I think you need all 510.

EDIT: FT, he was referring to the box trick, where you EV a poke without leveling it up and put it in the box. The EVs then take effect. It does work in DP, just not at level 100.

I think that was in an older version (maybe Emerald or something?). If your pokes were already lvl 100, you could EV train them by putting them in a box and taking them out. Now in D/P, they changed it to where you have to level up to gain EVs, IIRC.
 
Alright, thank you very much. I was worried that I may have something go wrong with my pokemon's stats (which I REALLY don't want, seeings as I finally finished my wifi team today)

Also, while I'm here, which 2 of these pokemon would fit the role of clean-up sweeper best in a status/flinchaxing team?

SD/Sub Rhyperior
Heatran
Porygon-Z
Mixed Infernape
Nasty Plot Azelf

-Azelf is awsome, but I'm already using Uxie so :/
-Rhyperior can tank and devestate any team, plus he's helped by sandstorm.
-Mixed Infernape just fucks stuff up
-Porygon-Z is my favorite, and could do extremely well due to the Paralysis I plan on running.
-Heatran can absorb fire attacks aimed at my Tangrowth, and then wreak some havock

Could someone please confirm this, I really want to know if it works in emerald.
