XDDD What is Pokerus? C'mon, are you guys serious?

*sigh* It is an extremely rare virius that your Pokemon normally obtains randomly. It concerns EV's and EV Training, so first learn about that. It is a HUGE aid when EV Training Pokemon, because it (correct me if I am wrong) doubles the amount of EV's normally obtained after a battle. You'll know it has Pokerus if it has a :| smiley in its profile.

Once but it was in my Diamond which pissed meh off. T___T;

I need it in Pearl! ~ @[email protected]

But it made my Staraptor freaking unbeatable. ^_____^;;

*Reads topic title and smirks* I've had Pokerus before. It infected me through my DS and gave me an incredible urge to thrash n00bs, and I did so continuously for a week straight. XD.

At least you got it good, I was bed-ridden for weeks with violent diarrhoea. :(

Listen, kiddies. Just say no to The Rus.

On a more serious note, I think I might have had it on Ruby or Sapphire at one point without actually knowing it.

I got it once in Ruby, I think. And then I got it in a trade in Diamond...but it disappeared about 4 hours later while I was sleeping so I didn't get to do anything with it...like spread it. :|

I was only 9-10 year old & I thought that it was some major desise.. and offcourse I resetted my game.
Only when I was 12 I realised that it actually is 'good' for your Pokémon..

I actually caught it twice in GSC. However, at the time I thought it was bad, and got rid of it the moment I got it. Both times. >_>

Further on down the road, in RSE, I caught it again, and, finally knowing it had positive effects, spread it among all my Pokemon. However, at the time I had no idea what EV's were, so my efforts went to waste.

Finally, in DP, now that I know what EV's are, I am having a much better time. I didn't catch it in the games, but rather I migrated said Pokemon from the previous generation. ^_^

And thanks to the Pokerus, I now have 26 fully EV trained creatures, and 2 on the way. :D
