RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

Does using the EXP Share effect the EV training of one Pokemon?
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

Yes it does. Say you deafeated a Magikarp with a Bidoof and had a Starly holding an Exp. Share. The Bidoof and the Starly would get one Speed EV each.
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

PKRS affects it, too. If whatever has the Exp. Share has PKRS, it'll get x2 EVs.

No wonder I have BASE 120 SPE :p

Ok, heres a question. When Ditto takes the form of its foe, it copies the move sets with all PP 5, right? And does it also copy the original stats or any stat enhancements of the foe too?

Well, everything except the level i think, here's a list what ditto copies:
- the form
- the stats (hp, att, def, sp.att, sp.def, spd)
- moves
- stat changes
- capture rate
- the EXP points earned
- and yeah and obviously the cry :p
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

Doesn't Ditto retain his cry?

Ditto does NOT copy the HP of its foe. Everything else is spot on.

A question: At which point do the Elite Four go from roflcopter to ultimate lords of destruction?
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

After you beat them once and get the National Dex, if that is what you mean.
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

Here's an odd question.

Well in my jap Diamond version I used my Mew's Transform on a Shellos. It was knocked out and after the battle it knew the Shellos' moves. (stuff like Mud Bomb.) Is this just a glitch or what?

O yes sorry, the HP remains, but he does take over the cry.

Yes this is probably a glitch, normally Ditto is resetted after a battle.
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

After reaching a streak of 21 in the Battle Castle, you can skip a battle for 50 CP. Can you skip the 7th battle in a set, and can you skip the battle against Darach at the end of the 7th streak?
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

I'm pretty sure that defeating Darach is mandatory and is not skipable.

Yah, as far as I know, the 7th battle can be skipped, but not the match against Darach.
He's a Frontier Brain, and battling a FB is like a part in the story. It can't be avoided.

It's a glitch in early Japanese versions. It can be used to breed Pokémon with illegal egg move combinations; however, most people would view a Pokémon obtained that way as hacked.
 
Negative Effects of Power Bracer ( ? )

Hi!

We're very new to EV training... we just got a Scyther up to 252 in Speed (100 through vitamins... the rest through battling Magicarps) -- now, we're getting ready to work on Attack EV.

Scyther has Pokerus and we have a Power Bracer for him. We're scared... the Power Bracer says it has a negative effect on Speed.

Are we defeating the purpose (ie - are Speed EVs coming off or are we otherwise hurting our Speed EV Training) by using the Power Bracer at this point in Scyther's training.

Question #2 -- How do we evolve Scyther to Scizor now that we've already used Metal Coat?

Thank you.

RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

Ok, as for your 1st question, I didn't understand it properly, but if you are asking what Power Bracer does, then I would say that it raises your ATK EVs, and lowers SPE as long as it is equiped.

And for your 2nd question, you hold Scyther a Metal Coat and trade it. Then, it becomes a Scizor.
 
Power Bracer

Thank you Dugtrio Trio...

1 - It is an unusually and very specific question... I know how Power Bracer and Pokerus work to Attack EV train Scyther. When you read about Power Bracer... it says that it reduces Speed when leveling up --- does that mean that the hard work we put into getting 252 Speed EV's is being wasted? (Should I have any worries about using the Power Bracer and its potential negative effects on my Speed EV?)

2 - Can you get more than one Metal Coat?
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

1. No, Power Bracer does'nt affect the SPE EVs in anyway. It just lowers the holder's SPE as long as it is equiped. After removal, the SPE will not be lowered anymore. It will have it's regular SPE. ( But it never affected the SPE EV)

2. "Iron Island
Wild Magnemite and Beldum (Post-National Dex)
Wild Steelix, Bronzor and Bronzong"
Here are the places you can get Metal Coat. Here's a link that shows you all the items in the game.

HIHI... You welcome! Anyone got more questions that needs answering? Keep em coming! :p

Oh right! Some one answer this for me!

What exactly does the Ability Flower Gift do?
 
RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread

When it is sunny, cherrim's attack and special defence will go up by 50%
Not only that, but in a 2vs2 battle it's co-pokémon will receive the same boost.
It is not stackable though.
