What about Darkrai Lv. X's attack? If I just use it once and I retreat Darkrai Lv. X, does my opponent still have to flip 2x in order to wake up? Thanks!
Ruling Does The Effect Of Dialgia G's "Deafen" Still Work If Either Active Pokemon Retreats?

The affect of Deafen is on the opponent (not the Pokemon), sort of like Gardevoir SW's Psychic Lock. Darkrai Lv.X's attack (Endless Darkness) is an affect on the Defending Pokemon, so the only way to remove the double flip sleep is by evolving, use of Trainers, or by replacing the double flip sleep with regular sleep.

Yes, you are correct about Confusion and Paralysis removing it because a Pokemon can only be affected by those 3 conditions one at a time.
And to name a Poke-Power that would remove it is Xatu SW and a Poke-Body that would remove it is Regigigas's Recover Mechanism.
Wow...so what about "smoke/smogscreen"? Does its effect end if the defending Pokemon retreat? Also, what about Magby?
If I use it but then retreat next turn, do my opponent's Pokemon Powers still get shut down for the remainder of my turn?

Thanks guys. So basically, I only need to use Darkrai Lv. X's "Endless Sleep" attack once and if, at any time, my opponent flips 2 tails, the defending Pokemon is knocked out (even if Darkrai Lv. X is benched)?!
