    My team all has the Pokerus status. What does it do and what should I do about?
     
    it's a good thing. Your Pokeymons all get double EVs (eg, you get 3 defence EVs for Golem, a pokémon with pokérus would get 6 per battle) so it's beneficial. Wears off after 2 days or so though so make the most of it.
     
    Welllllll...

    It just ran out and now there is a smiley face in my pokemon's summary. Is there any aftereffects of Pokerus?
    This was the face: :l
     
    There is no affect after Poke'rus. The smiley face simply means that said Poke'mon has had Poke'rus and can no longer get it again.

    Top paraphrase that into English: Your Pokemon's stats will rise more (by double) when they level up.

    Oh and according to Bulbapedia, the effects remain forever even once the virus is gone.
