    Then consider Ice Punch on Dusknoir to batter it harder. Also, consider getting something to paralyze Nite (T-Wave) or something else.

    I'll think of it. I must keep it, to deal with Hera, but I'll think of T-Wave. I already have a Zong, with this set

    Here's some newbie questions for you..

    -What IS the IV/EV stuff?
    -How do you breed?
    -Where do you get eggs in the game?
    -How do you use cheat codes?
    -What's a good quick way to raise levels? (code or no code, since I don't know how to use them yet)

    Thank you in advance :)

    Standard rules are:

    Sleep Clause, Not more than one pokemon is allowed to be asleep at one time in any player's team, not including sleep-inducing moves like Rest

    Species Clause, Not more than one pokemon of each species may be on a team

    Hax Item Clause - Items that rely on luck to activate and as thus have a influence on the outcome of the game, giving a player an unfair advantage through luck are banned. This includes critical boosters such as Scope Lens, evasion boosters such as Brightpowder. It does not include Wide Lens.

    Freeze Clause, Not more than one pokemon is allowed to be frozen at one time in any player's team

    Evasion Clause, No evasion increasing moves like Double Team may be used, this does not extend to accuracy lowering moves such as Sand Attack.

    OHKO Clause, No OHKOing of opponents Poke No OHKO moves

    Item Clause, Not more than two pokemon on the team may hold the same item

    Can someone please explain to me the use of u-turn and fake out thanks
    Also in a standard UU battle would an Umbreon be allowed seeing as its BL?

    Well you use Fake Out to make the opponent flinch, then you can U-Turn to a suitable counter.
    I think that's what it's used for...
    Not 100% sure someone correct me if it is wrong.

    Fake Out in single battles is for scouting switches, then switching out to an appropriate counter, either by normal switching or by U-turn. Fake Out can also be used in conjunction with Technician to essentially score a free hit on the opponent, but the power leaves much to be desired, 80 power on a STAB user, most likely Ambipom, and 60 power for a normal Technician user.

    Fake Out has far more applications in Double Battles, and is one of the best moves to aid a setup, other than Encore. Fake Out the user that would be threatening to your setup, and then set up.

    Umbreon is not allowed in a UU battle as it is BL, which is a higher tier than UU.

    Alright, thanks Archer ^.^
    And what about Heracross, can Heracross learn Ice Punch and Thunder Punch as an Emerald Move Tutor move?

    Everything should essentially aim for 31 :/...However, the top stats to fix are: Speed, Attack, and HP. MAKE SURE NINJASK WILL HAVE AN ODD HP AT LV. 100! This is to ensure you live through two SR switch ins, considering no residual damage has affected you.
