What's the difference between bulky and tank pokemon?
Crit Happens.
A bulky Pokemon would be something like Blissey; very strong defensively, but virtually no attacking power.Originally Posted by Mystical Jackal
A tank Pokemon would be something like Heatran; a good defender, but also a strong attacker.

I thought Blissey was a wall. Or bulky is the same of wall?

Needs a title.
Bulky usually refers to any pokemon that can take a hit well, rather it has offensive power or not.
...
A wall would be more akin to sending out Chansey to equip Energy cards to your Benched Pokemon.

If the attacker is holding Macho Brace, another Pokemon in the team that holds Exp. Share will also receive double EV's?

No, macho brace/power items only affect the holder.

If our friend Arceus is the god of all Pokémon, then who is the Satan of all Pokémon?

Sheer Force: Moves with a secondary effect are increased in power by 33% but lose their secondary effect
^could this be used to get rid of the confusion that comes with thrash?
While I dislike confrontations, I find the idea of a puzzle battle to be quite alluring. Or to use a colloquialism: Please bring it. ~ Professor Layton
Gogurt is a Pokémon
It's not.
Sheer Force only applies to moves with secondary effects that occur less than 100% of the time.
Jodie Foster held two pair
Bach had three of a kind
Gandhi said, "With my full house,
I will blow your mind!"
.
It occurs with any move that has a secondary effect, not just ones that happen less than 100% of the time. Taking recoil, or inducing confusion isn't considered a secondary effect, however.
We're nothing more than concreteness victims trapped into our limits
Blind beliefs that lead us: "Trust in what we can perceive with senses".
Thousands minds that reflect our tendency to flatten layers of knowledge,
demonstrating that we're just wasting our time.
Look above us, sky is just a fragment and shows us how we're nothing more than ants.
Human weakness is what we hide, overwhelming celebration of our fault .
Entwined with our fears of being in your hands, we're deaf to the universe that guides us.
How can we enhance our thin perception of every small wonder hiding behind simple shapes?
...
Assuming your statement is correct (it's not), the. The answer would be Giratina.
Needs a title.
Which Giratina isn't. I could go into detail, but I'm pretty sure that even if Arceus was the god, it wouldn't be a copy of the jewish/christian religions at all.
Giratina isn't even dark type. If it were the devil, it most certainty would be. Afterall, in Japanese, the dark type is the "evil" type.
:)
Ifyou watch the movies and 12 it covers that giritina is far from a devil. It inhabits its own world which is needed to bring balance to our one. And occasionally attacks dialga/palkia because they run around ruining things with time travel and worm holes.
There is a difference between a primary and a secondary effect. A fire blast burn is scondary, or an iron head flinch, a psychic dropping spec def. However drain punch healing, recoil moves, moves with draw backs (such as self stat loss or confusion) are not ignored. Swifts ability to auto hit is not negated either. Generally if ithas a % chance it can be negated with sheer force.

From the Canalave library...
"In the beginning, there was only
a churning turmoil of chaos.
At the heart of chaos, where all
things became one, appeared an Egg.
Having tumbled from the vortex, the
Egg gave rise to the Original One.
From itself, two beings the Original
One did make.
Time started to spin.
Space began to expand.
From itself again, three living things
the Original One did make.
The two beings wished, and from them,
matter came to be.
The three living things wished, and
from them, spirit came to be.
The world created, the Original One
took to unyielding sleep..."
Notice the very clear parallels to the wording in Genesis. "In the beginning, there was..." Arceus is very clearly supposed to be the God of the Pokemon world. It is debatable as to whether or not Giratina would be Satan (although you can make a strong case for it), but it is pretty undeniable that Arceus is meant to be at least a god, if not capital-g God.
As for the whole Sheer Force debate, here is a complete list of all the moves the ability affects, and the Pokemon who get Sheer Force and can learn them. Is it so hard to look this up before making random claims about it?

No, it isn't.
You're closer here, but you're still misrepresenting what Arceus is meant to be.
First, everything that deifies Arceus to that extent is always qualified as being myth, legend and or other hearsay. The Pokédex entries, the Canalave library text, so on. On the occasions where Arceus actually appears, it does so as a very powerful entity and one that's given great reverence, to be sure, but that still doesn't make it "the creator" and everything else the flavor text paints it as.
Second, "god" / "God" is a very different concept in other parts of the world. Arceus is not meant to be "God" in the Judeo-Christian sense, and though one could argue that it is presented as "a god", if one does choose to accept the latter as accurate, it's considerably more along the lines of the kami of Shinto lore; deified, revered beings that are holy, but not all-powerful at all. Furthermore, the "creation myth" that usually gets printed along with Arceus should be all anyone needs to be convinced that it isn't "God" in the Judeo-Christian sense. The myth has more in common with the creation stories of indigenous cultures worldwide than it does anything from the Biblical traditions. The "cosmic egg" and "many arms" in particular are oft-recurring elements of these creation myths.
Punchline? Arceus is deified, it's revered, and it's powerful, but that doesn't necessarily make it "God" or "a god", and if one absolutely has to paint it as the latter, the word means something very different beyond the Western - and in this case inaccurate - definition.
Giratina is not "Satan" or "the devil" in much the same way - antithetical is not tantamount to evil.

Right, lets try posting in the right sticky thread this time:
Can you use the Nintendo zone hotspots to connect BW2 to the internet? For various reasons its the only way I'll be able to access the current keldeo event.

If the first party slot is occupied by a fainted poke who has the Stench abiility, and the second one is occupied by an Illuminate and alive one. Which ability is applied outside of the game?
Supreme Battle Frontier Champion
The pokemon in first position, whether its fainted or now. (This is a pretty useful mechanic actually, especially for chaining in 4th gen.)
