Okay, the maximum SpAtk Spiritomb can attain (with HP Fighting) is 310.

After 2 Nasty Plots, what is Spiritomb's SpAtk: 930 or 1240 (effectively 241)?

My Shoddy Battle experiences lead me to indicate the latter, but it doesn't make sense to me...

Is Baton Passing 2-3 Accupressures a good idea? :/

I saw a post somewhere (maybe in Site & Projects > Contributions & Corrections ) where someone was compiling a list of all the event Pokemon, and if any of them had special moves (like Teeter Dance Pichu, etc.).

Anyone know where I could find that link? I'd like to see the list again.

Using Nasty Plot boosts your Sp.A by two stages, or it's like adding 100% of it to itself. So using 3 Nasty Plots, you boost your Sp.A by six stages (the max), or adding 300% of it to itself. So 310 + (310 * 3) = 1240.

I can breed a male pokemon that knows Grass Knot with a female Eevee and the offspring will know Grass Knot because it is a TM, right?

No, because it's not a TM that Eevee can learn. If it could learn Grass Knot with the TM, sure. But it doesn't.

No, because Eevee does not learn the TM Grass Knot. However, if you repeated the situation with the TM Substitute, it would work, because Eevee lears the TM. It is more of a way to conserve TMs than it is a way to get otherwise unavailable moves.

Crap. How am I supposed to get my Espeon to learn it?

Espeon learns the TM86 Grass Knot, so you can teach it to it the regular way. If you don't have one, you should look/ask for it on the trading board.

Erm...can anyone give tips on getting the 10 bonus rounds for the slot machine to get explosion? I know there's something that has to do with the different Clefairy. Also does the red glowing moon have anything to do with it?

When the moon glows red, don't press anything. Wait it out. If it glows white, hit the buttons quickly. I haven't yet gotten 10 rounds, but I have gotten 9 multiple times. I think it has to do with the poke ball that the Clefairy comes in.

That's 3 Plots, though. So 2 Plots should be 930 SpAtk, right?

Well, do you know if there is a bug in that with Shoddy Battle, then? I've ALWAYS inflicted more damage with Spiritomb after ONE Plot than after TWO...

Is there a good ms for Espeon without Grass Knot?

See the D/P Analyses. HP Fighting is usually preferred over Grass Knot in those sets for TTar and Weavile.

also it has to do with what clefairy it is. if it is a ditto clefaire less chace of continue,reg. clefairy medium chance and shiny clefairy is a high chance, and just follow what the clefairy points to or else their is a less of a chance to continue on

Thanks, I don't know how to run the calculations so would a Modest Magnezone with a 30 IV in SATK and the full 252 EV with a petaya boost using HP FIRE BP 70 OHKO a metagross with a 31iv in sdef?

30 IV, 252 EV, Modest, Magnezone with +1 boost using HP Fire on a 31HP/31SpDef IV, 0 EVs Metagross:
Damage: 276 - 325
Damage: 91.69% - 107.97%

So there is about a 50% chance of it OHKOing. Metagross will usually carry additional defensive EVs, so you'll have to do your own research.
