My question is say I have 2 Pokemon, both with Pokerus, one holding a Power Ankle and the other holding an Exp Share. The Pokemon holding the Power Ankle battles a Golbat which gives out 2 Speed EVs, and so the total EVs it gets are 12. Would 12 EVs also be given to the Pokemon holding the Exp Share, and then doubled to 24 with Pokerus, or would it only get 4 or 12?

I find dragon dance to be better..Most sweepers outspeed and OHKO him. The macho brace only works for the poke thats holding it. Same with anklet, pokerus doubles it for both pokes though.

Well it's not to bad but i'll give my 2 cents. Charizard is MADE for special attacks. You got him pulling pure physical stats. If you read his sp. att. it normally is much higher then his att. So it would be better to pump his sp. def up with calcium and then use him for special battles. My charizard is that way and I can take out teams of pokemon without changing :).
Recommended att's for charizard are:
Blast Burn
Flamethrower
Fly (gotta have some physical)
and just because he is 4x weak against rock earthquake is pretty good in there :)
Chansey is god the way she is
Steelix seems good
Tyranitar wow. He is MADE for physical so you got him in the right category at the least. But maybe a few more powerful attacks to help against his weaknesses? and to help with some of the traits he already possesses. He is a dark/ground poke' so you wanna have a good earth/dark attack in there to help with the fact that he is made mainly for psychic and ghosty's. So I recommend Crunch and Earthquake, yes he learns them BOTH. Another I liked that he had was dragon dance. Smart as his speed isen't great + you can buff him up a lot more. And stone edge should imo be replaced with more powerful rock attack like Rock Slide which HE CAN LEARN.
Thats my opinion chose to or not to follow its ur choice.

That's using Charizard as a mixed Sweeper, which is even worse. Blast Burn is Suicide, really. Fly is bad because the opponent can just switch into something that resists it. Dragon Pulse, air slash, and Fthrower/heat wave are much better attcks for special Zard. TTar is Rock-Dark BTW. I actually rate this team 9/10, very solid (i'm not 4th gen expert so don't take my word). It looks very well-planned. Good job.
Off topic-Stricken, you're right, Scizor rules!

Stricken don't get me wrong, I appreciate your advice, it's just that most of what you said isn't correct. Tyranitar is actually a rock/dark type, and stone edge is more powerful than rock slide. While you are right about Charizard's Special Attack being higher than it's attack, I chose to make Charizard a physical sweeper because of the physical moves I would be able to give him if I made that choice. And, well, I won't bother commenting on the moveset you offered because that would just make me seem like an unappreciative jerk:nervous: Anyway, thanks for your help guys.

sorry man but I don't use tyranitar and I've always thought he was a earthtype and blast burn is basicaly my "houdini in a tight spot" Do what ya want it was just my 2 cents. I mean I have completely different team so maybe you could rate mine? lol

Go ahead and start a new thread. We'd love to help. Blast Burn is unreliable, and the penalty hurts as you can't switch out. TTar is tough to counter and a good Tauntrados copy, and the best dark type IMO that isn't uber. Good job on the team! It really would kill mine...but good job!

My history with D/Pis about 5 hours. IT just didn't click for me, but I did lots of research so I could help out here, so rating D/P teams is one of my biggest hobbies on here. Well, good luck on Wi-Fi!
