#2 Naterl. It evolves into a Xatyss if it holds a deep sea feather. If it is holding a deep sea beak(?) it evolves into a Xatail.

#6 By taking the base stats of the two pokemon used to make the IPA and averaging it.

Edit: For question 14, which pokemon is holding the Kings Rock? The attacking pokemon or the defending pokemon?

Rain Dance increases the base power of Water-type attacks by 50% and reduces the base power of Fire-type attacks by 50%. Also, the moves Synthesis, Morning Sun and Moonlight will recover only 1/4 of the user's maximum HP instead of 1/2. Finally, while Rain Dance is in effect, Thunder's accuracy will become 100%, and Solarbeam will do half of it's normal damage.

1. Nidoquil, Trapchu, Hopkip, Whisorita, and Clefbra.

I already answered the first question. Nidoquil, Tranchu, Hoppkip, Whisorita, and Clefbra. Take a look in the IPA dex if you're not sure.

Anyone see anything wrong? This is a good time to check answers (that is, if I copied everything right)

Post by **Giga-Gar** » Thu Jul 24, 2008 9:24 pm

It looks all corect. What's the percent rate for Slash's critical hit rate, and how much does Focus Energy increasse the chance of a critical hit? I'm pretty sure Silver threw in the King's Rock to trick us, unless something like this happens.

Pokemon 1(King's Rock) used Bubble!
Pokemon 2 used Focus Energy!

*end of first turn*

Pokemon 1(King's Rock) used Water Gun! Pokemon 2 flinched!
Pokemon 2 tried to use Slash, but it flinched!

Or.

Pokemon 1(King's Rock) Used Bite! Critical Hit! Pokemon 2 lost it's focus!

There's all types of variables. We need to know if the pokemon using slash is going first or last. We need to know if it recieved a critical hit and lost it's focus. We need to know if the pokemon holding the King's Rock caused the pokemon using Slash to flinch.

As for number 14, reason one would be for breaking three rules. The second reason would be for being inactive. Would the third reason be for asking to drop out?

I think slash has a 20% critical rate. I heard that somewhere.....

Post by **Giga-Gar** » Thu Jul 24, 2008 9:50 pm

That's not true. I've read that Slash has a high Critical Hit rate. Using Focus Energy would increase the percentige of Slash's Critical Hit rate, but it wouldn't raise it to 100%. It's like when you go shopping, an item's 70% off, then it's an added 30% off. that doesn't make it 100% off.
