When any Pokemon with cloud nine is in battle, weather has no effect, but the weather itself doesn't disappear and will become effective again if the cloud nine Pokemon switches out before the weather ends.

Also when a Pokemon with king's rock uses iron head, do the flinch chances add up to 40% or are they independent?
I want to propose a technical project where percentage is added to substitute. This can help players gauge whether or not to re-sub in tight matches - in some matches it matters, see this match -

Is this possible?

This would break cart mechanics. You are not meant to know what damage roll the opponent got vs your sub or use the damage to calc their spread
Stab gives a 1.5 times boost, rain gives a 1.5 times boost and supper effective damage gives a 2.0 times boost.
1.5 x 1.5 > 2
Thanks for the answers.
Is there any tool that helps me calculate how many types + possible type combination my move selection would hit for regular or super effective damage?
I want to see which moves I should chose on Latias for max coverage. It would be good to know how many opponents I can hit with Grass Knot + HP Hire or T-Bolt plus Ice Beam and so on.

choose platinum(heartgold/soulsilver as gen
It depends, they're all viable options. It might help us more if you told us what format you're playing? And what level of opponent are you playing against?
Depends on the bulky water. Grass knot will deal more to most, but thunderbolt will do more to Gyarados, Empoleon and Vaporeon. If you're playing with or against Kyogre, then Thunder is your best option.
Calm Mind is another option which can be good against waters.
i thi
for everything else modest is better
i think you generally go modest unless you need to outspeed infernape and mixgon
for everything else modest is better
Both are good.
Timid is good because it allows you to speed tie opposing non-Scarf Timid Latias and Timid Gengar (if you aren't using HP Fire on your Latias), outrun Naive U-Turn Infernape, and outrun positive speed nature base 100 speed pokemon.
If your team already has enough defense against opposing Timid Latias, Timid Gengar, Naive U-Turn Infernape, Hasty Mixed Flygon, and max speed Jolly/Timid/Naive Jirachi, Modest Latias is a good choice.
Modest Latias is a big power jump over Timid Latias. Especially on the Choice Specs set. This allows it to function more effectively as pokemon that wears down steel types so that teammates such as Dragonite, Flygon, or Gengar can benefit from it.
