Shadow Tag blocks all opponents from escaping, you don't need Arena Trap. The only way to be immune from Perish Song is with the ability Soundproof.
would soundproof only give immunity to the pokemon with the ability or does it count for the team mate too
also i can't rember or not if it goes through protect?
Only the Soundproof Pokemon avoids the Perish Song. Its ally hears it just fine.
And it gets through Protect.
Wow...
I haven't EV'd in so long, that I can't remember the answer to this question o.O
If I 'mon has Pokerus while I'm EV training...
Do I double the EV's BEFORE the Power Item or after?
Ex:
Killed a Genger = 3 SpA
w/ Pokerus = 6 SpA
w/ Power Item = 10 SpA
OR
Killed a Genger = 3 SpA
w/Power Item = 7 SpA
w/ Pokerus = 14 SpA
A lil help would be nice :3

Pokérus is applied last, always.
Ok, ty :3
Most anti-lead Starmies are Life Orbed with Hydro Pump, Rapid Spin, Grass Knot, and another move (Thunderbolt or Ice Beam).
Check the Mixed Attacker set on Smogon. It says that you should give it either an Expert Belt or a Life Orb.
Possible, yes. Practical, no. Such a spread, like all quint 30+ spreads, will take days to turn up.
On an emulator using save states, it would be possible. But I personally wouldn't consider the result legit anyway.
Maybe if you were to combine the patience of a saint, with an electronically timed button pressing robot of some sort, you could get one. But to be honest, you're probably better off holding out for HGSS, and RNGing for a Lati there.

Can the Rotom formes, Shaymin sky form, and Giratina origin form be used on wifi if both players are using either Pokemon version of Platinum, HeartGold, or SoulSilver? For now, I know that all of the above special forms of Pokemons cannot be used against other player who are using Diamond or Pearl version. I really want to know the answer.
If a Pokémon is has no physical attacks, would it be best for it to have a 0 (or otherwise low) IV in Attack to minimize Confusion damage, or a 31 (or otherwise high) IV in Attack to maximize Struggle damage? Neither of these is very practical, but I'm just wondering if it matters in the slightest, since I can get either with practically the same difficulty via RNG.
Are Milotic and Cresselia perfectly usable in OU?
They cannot be used on wifi without an AR.
Confusion is more likely to happen then struggle, so I'd suggest a low IV.
It depends on how you're defining 'perfectly usable'. You can use Cresselia and Milotic to some degree of success in OU, but obviously they have fallen out of favor by most players for generally better options.
Players can use those formes only on local wireless battles. Sorry :(
Also, which spread is best on a Snow Cloak abusing Froslass? The analysis has like 32 HP/224 Sp.Atk/252 Speed, but I've seen 248 HP/228 Def/32 Spd circulating... Which spread is better for an OU Hail Team, as Froslass would act as a spin-blocker and spiker?
The more defensive spread would be better.
