Well you can choose which Fossil you want, Trainer avatars can be chosen as well, Wi-Fi I mean.

After you beat the game, you get random fossils from all regions.
Do I get to choose any of all Trainer Avatar or any of only four of all like Gen 4?

Can shaking grass and blubbing water be active simultaneously?

Meaning, if there's a blubbing water spot, can shaking grass still occur, or is it a unique instance and I'll have to change maps in order for the shaking grass to happen?

Nope, you have to leave the map area in order for opposite to happen.

I just wanna ask everyone this question, is Pokemon Black and/or white giving your DS a very hard time battery life wise?
I always have the sound turned off, the screens dim, and even the C-gear off, and my DS goes red within a few hours!! This like never happened before.
Is it just me? Am I maybe just playing the game too much? (If there is such a thing) Or does Black and White take up more of your DS's energy for the rest of you?

I'm glad it isn't just me. I figured it was from overplaying the game or having the c-gear on. My theory now is that the improved graphics had to come from somewhere, so probably the battery is suffering because of them.

I was told that ev training stays the same in this game except that stats are recalculated at the end of every battle instead of during leveling up. That being said, my pokemon should increase by 1 stat in defense after fighting 4 roggenrola, but for some reason no matter how many I fight the stats don't go up, does anyone know why?
does anyone know the answer to this? I've been ev training for a day and stats are still not going up ><

also, my battery life seems okay
it goes down faster compared to another game I play but I can still play BW for a number of hours before I need to charge the DS

I would say my battery life isn't so hot anymore compared to when I'm playing other games, but I'm used to that with my iPod and PSP, plus, it's a small price to pay for how awesome these games are. C-gear also definitely runs the battery down faster.

When you do a WiFi battle, how do you get it so that it rounds the levels up or down to 50 or 100?

in the battles i cant seem to use a move. when i press a move it takes me to a description of the move instead of executing the move. it's the same problem i had when i downloaded a japanese rom a few months ago, and now im stuck in the very first battle because the game is refusing to actually let me battle. is this some sort of predominant glitch or am i doing it wrong somehow?
 

Nameless.

Where in Castelia do you get the evoilite? I know you get it from a scientist...but I forgot where he's at...
Go to the fountain area in Castelia and head up the path.
The second building on the right has the scientist you're looking for. :3

Has anyone tested Synchronize in BW? I think it works now even if it's not the front Pokemon in your party. I caught a Timid Synchronize Munna yesterday, and since then (with it not out front) I've caught 11 Pokemon, 5 of which were Timid. I know for a fact that I had Dewott out front for those battles, so by the old rules Synchronize shouldn't have done anything.

Well that may of been just amazing luck, or you could be right and it works differently, :3

That's ROM's for you :/ Totally unpredictable, especially B/W roms since they've been tinkered with so many times they probably will crash or glitch.

To answer your question it's a ROM Glitch.
