You should read the stickies first. They have most of your answers.

not answering the question:

anyways Pokerus is a rare virus that is that doubles the EV received in battles when the Pokemon is effected with it. It can be spreaded thats if a Pokemon in your party has it. you have a 1 in 21,845 of getting it good luck

yeh basically pokerus = good

Kim Do-yeon August 29th, 2007 6:05 AM

Come to think of it back in the days of Pokémon Gold my Flaffy contracted it!

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ August 29th, 2007 6:47 AM

thats because thats when Pokerus was first introduced in the GSC series I never caught it before until I got RSE so I thought it started in the 3rd generation.

Lil-Dill August 29th, 2007 10:02 AM

lol I got a pochama...I mean piplup with Pokerus over a trade in the GTS. I actually dont like pokemon with pokerus.

Seeing as this is on the subject of Pokerus, If a Pokemon has Pokerus, when it's in the PC I've found that it stays forever it's only if you take it out and walk with it... Is this correct or am I seeing things?

Yes, you are correct. As long as the spreadable PKRS Pokémon is in the PC, it won't be cured of it, effectively giving you an endless supply of PKRS to spread to any other Pokémon you want.

Roihu August 29th, 2007 10:01 PM

Yup your right.
If it's in the PC it'll stay as long as the game is still intact.

fredlocks August 29th, 2007 10:03 PM

Cool bananas I was wondering that because I kept seeing it there and I wasn't in the mood to do anything with those Pokemon at the time, and I just looked at it the other day and... yeah, that's really good I might start do something now... lol

AnimeDDR110 August 29th, 2007 10:14 PM

oh yeah i do. my friend caught it off a mightyena then gave me his typholison. really good handy tool for ev training.

Siimo September 2nd, 2007 2:50 PM

Hey I got a Kyogre, Blaziken, Regice, Shelgon, Swellow, and a Sharpedo with pkrs. But how exactly does it spread???

kydl September 2nd, 2007 3:04 PM

You just have the pokemon infested with it in your party and it will automatically spread after a while. A side note: Pokerus will disappear after a while and you won't be able to infect the pokemon that had it again.

Random September 3rd, 2007 1:47 AM

I think pokerus, stays valid until one full day has passes, its better to preserve it in the PC.

Ársa September 3rd, 2007 2:12 AM

In Crystal, I caught a Shiny Sandshrew with PKRS. :)

I also had a pokemon team with PKRS after one of them got it.But I heard that PokeRus is good because it increases the stats of pokemon.

cocoteh September 3rd, 2007 8:59 AM

can it spread to other pokemon in the pc if your pokemon stays in the pc

It double the Evs a Pokémon receives to be exact.

No, it can only be spread if you put an infected Pokémon in your team. Putting an infected Pokémon in the PC helps you keep Pokérus, it won't go away if you keep it in there.
