They run off the same counter, so it'll be the same as using Endure 4x.

The effects have always been permanent, if you're asking if the virus can die however yes it still does right at midnight.
This confuses me. Do you mean that it won't say you have the virus anymore but you still get double the EVs after it is gone?
I'm looking to get in to some heavy competitive battling soon.
Been reading a lot of articles so far the best guides I have found are:
http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Pokémon/Competitive_battling
http://www.gamefaqs.com/ds/989552-pokemon-black-version/faqs/61933
and of course I've skimmed through just about all the articles smogon has
http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/
I'd appreciate it if others could share some links to guides for battling.
I'm also looking forward to having a tutor from the Battle 101 course.
as I'm just starting my Competitive circuit maybe someone can get me pointed in the right direction.

A Pokemon that ever gets Pokerus has always gained double the EVs, no matter if it's cured or not.
Losing the [Pokerus] logo on the status screen simply means it is no longer contagious.

Back in previous generations, I read that eggs hatched when the egg counter reached zero, and it was lowered every 256 steps. I was breeding a bit in Black when I had two eggs hatch literally one step after another. It has happened twice: once with a Munna, and once with Litwick.
Has this happened to anyone else, and if so, could someone point me to the new breeding/hatching formula (if it has been discovered)?

did you put the eggs in the PC before taking them out for hatching?
Where is the entrance into the giant chasm? I'm trying to find TM13 (Ice Beam) and I can't find the entrance to the cave.
Go east of Lacunosa Town (Route 13) , go down and surf up the area with water. Surf to the north, and you should see an entrance to a cave. There'll be an exit inside, and you're in the Giant Chasm. (iirc. I think the outer part is also an are of the Giant Chasm. xD)
Edit: * aquasuicune This also happened to me already. I didn't find any problems with it, though.
**Still looking for a Dark Pulse Seviper/Ekans/Arbok. Thanks. :)
Ahh okay, thanks guys! Serebii's page is so vague I was like uhh...
I've had the same egg issue; my first eggs to hatch were two cottonee's, gotten right from the day-care man, with no interruptions; and they hatched, one step after another. Also happened with Breloom and Oddish, and my friends have had it happen too.
I don't think it's an issue, but it is something to look into

Is there an IV guy somewhere in BW?
no, i don't think it is a prob. The game simply is unable to handle 2 eggs hatching at the same time, so it places the hatching eggs in a queue and hatches them every step.
I had the same question before; the blue haired dude in Battle Subway. He's the first guy you see when you enter from Nimbasa.
I have a quick EVing question:
I have a Poke who I want to EV to take special attacks as well as possible with absolutely ZERO concern for how he takes physical attacks. NONE AT ALL. I only have 256 EVs to do this. What's the best arrangement for a purely special viewpoint:
252 HP, 4 Special Defense
4 HP, 252 Special Defense
or somewhere in between (128/132?)
?

In 4th gen, I thought if both eggs are on the same counter then it must take 256 steps in between them, then the second one hatches
eg.
1. Deposit Ditto and Magikarp
2. Run until one egg is generated
3. Get egg off old man
4. Straight away, put egg into PC
5. Run until another egg is produced
6. Get egg
7. Go towards PC in exact same tile route
8. You now have two eggs with the exact same steps taken with them
9. Both magikarp have 10 cycles to go through
10. Run
11. Run some more
12. You have counted steps they have 1 step cycle each
13. Theoretically they have 256-(number of steps to PC)
14. Step cycle is done
15. first egg hatches
16. 256 steps later
17. second egg hatches
I thought this was how it is, feel free to question/correct/ninja this
kalamadude basically, you want to maximise the product of special defense and HP. The actual stats, after all EVs, and taking into account IVs and Natures.
If you post the actual Pokemon in question, someone can probably sort you out the EV spread.
If you post the actual Pokemon in question, someone can probably sort you out the EV spread.
If you most want to take special attacks, you should invest 252 in SPD, and 4 in HP, but this depends on the base stats of the poke in question. If you told us the base stats for hp and SpD, it would help greatly.
Woop sorry folks, it's an Adamant Tyranitar with (obviously) 31 in both stats.
252 HP / 216 SpD with rest in attack is the standard spread for specially defensive TTar.
