The recoiling kicks are boosted by Reckless even when they don't miss. Since you do more damage, you also do more damage to yourself.
 
Another question here....I heard someone say in the RMT Section that you can't Baton Pass Stat Boosting Berries....is that true? Or can you?

How does Tinted Lens work with moves that are 1/4 damage? (ie: a water move against kingdra)

iirc, if it is 2x NVE or 4x NVE, the attakc does twice as much damage as it normaly would. 2x NVE would effectively be treated as neutral, and 4x NVE as 2x NVE.

Wow, I just used that acronym 5 times...
 
I currently breeding Lonely Horsea 20+/31/20+/31/20+/31 with Swift swim. I use a Garcomp with 31/31/28/x/26/31 as a dad.

Witch one of these two should I pick as mother?

Horsea: 15/29/29/31/17/31 Swift swim
Seadra:18/31/30/31/28/26 sniper

Is fighting and ghost resisted by anything and who is the best candidate to sweeping using fighting and ghost moves.
Click to expand...
I don't think it is - Ghost is only resisted by Steel and Dark, both of which are weak to Fighting. Ghost types are weak to Ghost anyway, so Steel/Ghost or Dark/Ghost doesn't work.

EDIT: Special Lucario learns Shadow Ball and Aura Sphere - try that.
EDIT 2: Heracross/Lucario/maybe Ursaring with Shadow Claw and Close Combat

Is it possible for a starmie to survive a Scizor (techni.) quick attack after 2 swords dance and a life orb to boost it?
Click to expand...
I believe it always will on 252/252 offensive starmies, but some bulkier starmies have a chance of surviving. I don't know exact calculations because I'm not quite sure where the technician boost is worked in...

Is the effect of the move trick for the battle or only for the turn?
like lets say my alakazam uses trick on a charizard and its holding choice specs. It is switched with my opponents salac berry. Does the effect stay for the entire battle like the move knock-off or does it disappear if the pokemon are switched?
Click to expand...
It lasts for the entire battle... If it is a battle via Link or Battle Tower , everything is "reset" after the battle.
 
Yes they do. Rock, Steel and Ground types don't take any damage from Sandstorm, as well as those with the Sand Veil trait (like Cacturne, who is Grass/Dark)
 
the move Gyro Ball

how is it that ive seen it on Bronzong regardless of whether or not it is accompanied by Trick Room? is it move powerful the slower Bronzong is? the slower your opponent is? the bigger the difference between your speed and your opponents? i cant figure it out
 
WHy is Wobbuffet banned? I dont get why...sry for being n00bish

And what if you use roost after ur opponent moves? On the next turn, can ur opponent use...say...EQ on ur skarmory for a SE hit? PM me please
 
Wobbuffet has a killer special and physical defence, and the ability Shadow tag. It switches into a pokemon, takes the hit, then Encores so the pokemon has to use the same move over and over, then it mirror coats or counters it right back. almost instant kill. Shadow tag stops them switching out.

My question, for no redistribution in trade forum, can you sell the pokemon if it is original? For example, I get this shiny mew from the trade forum with no redistribution rule, I cannot clone it and sell it, but can I sell it if it is uncloned?

And how does one sweep entire teams?

Gyro ball's base power increases (to a max of 150) based on the difference between your speed and your opponents speed. It is unaffected by trickroom.

Nope, you can't give it to anyone else.
 
I'm using a modest Milotic with great Ivs, but I need help making the rest of my team. I'm probably going to use a calm mind cresselia with it. I'm not a garchomp, electivire, or tyrannitar person and I wanna use pretty pokemon. Do you have any suggestions of what I could use on my team?
 
I think most of us know the secondary affect of synchronize in that it gives the wild pogey a chance to be the same nature as the pokemon you're using.

Well I also know all the time people in posts say use a fainted pogey infront with compound eyes to increase chance of finding a pokemon with an item.

My question is, is it the same with synchronize? Could I use a fainted ralts in the front row and get the same result? Or would it have to actually make an appearance in the battle?
