Where would you guys sugest training pokemon that are to weak for the pokemon leage, yet when you train them in victory road it just seems like your geting no where? Thanks for your time!
If this is your first shot at the Pokémon League, it depends on what level your Pokémon are at. If they're very low level (like below level 10, for instance), the Nimbasa Stadiums will have plenty of trainers. You get an EXP boost fighting a trainer's Pokémon rather than a wild Pokémon. If they're moderate-level (between levels 10 and 40), then Victory Road is definitely the way to go. If they're approaching the levels of the Elite Four, spend as much of your money on supplies as possible (Revives, Hyper Potions, Full Heals, and a few Full Restores) and challenge the Elite Four anyway. As long as you can knock out at least one Pokémon before losing your team, you'll get EXP anyway.
In the first two cases, be sure to put the Pokémon you want to train out first, then switch it with a Pokémon who can defeat the opposing Pokémon no sweat. Don't forget to attach the Lucky Egg onto the Pokémon you want to train.

Why would people put pokemon up on GTS and never take it back?
I think much of it is from people who did the GTS cloning glitch in previous games. In those games, there was a way to create a duplicate of your Pokémon that involves putting a Pokémon up on the GTS with an unlikely trading condition, such as Level 100 Magikarp or Level 9 or under Blastoise. The cloning glitch has been fixed for the Black and White versions, but it doesn't stop people from trying it anyway. The thought that there is no cloning glitch anymore doesn't occur to them, and they try again and again thinking they did it wrong. Enough people abuse the GTS for this that you're almost guaranteed to find people attempting this for any popular Pokémon.
There's also a fair amount of trolling going on, which is apparently popular in Japan. That is, they make these impossible conditions on purpose just to make it harder to find someone who wants to trade for real. They're not here for the cloning glitch. Rather, they just have their Pokémon sit there and take up space.

Oh great so my Mawhile is gone after all that just to get it? Wobbuffet was gotten by accident because I got lucky and won the search game. What happens when the PGL is down for maintenance when I was in the middle of making my wish? I had just wished another Misdrevous but was not able to do anything else so is he safe or gone? Does not matter as I have 2 but if this happens on a new wish for instance then I need to know if it saved it or not. Thanks.
The PGL just went down XD.
There's a limit of 1 Pokémon every 24 hours in the Dream World. If you find multiple Pokémon you like, you'll have to pick whom you want to bring back.
