A Pokerus Question

Okay, you may or may not know that once a Pokemon gets the Pokerus, it wears off after a day. Once it goes away, it can never get the Pokerus again. However, when the Pokerus goes away, a small dot appears on the Pokemon's status screen.

My question is this: Will a Pokemon with the dot still get doubled EVs (like a Pokemon with the Pokerus), or does the dot not have any other effect?

Nope!

No. it just is a marking to show that it has had pokerus before!
 
I'm going to pretend there was no person above me except PKMN TRAINER BEN and Horn Drill.

If you have any other questions about the Pokerus, on the main site there is an article about it. It's really detailed.

Dang. I was afraid of that.

Thanks anyway, guys. I'll look for that article on the main site. :)

Actually, people I've spoken to have said you DO still get the double EV gain. It just can't spread the Pokerus to other Pokemon once it has the dot.

But I've heard both, so I can't confirm with certainty one way or the other...and I can't test it myself because I've never gotten Pokerus. ;_;
 
Don't be lazee. Answer if you know... :rolleyes:

Yes. If a Pokémon has a dot, it'll still earn double EVs. The Pokérus Stat is just to spread it. Once a Poké gets it, it'll win double EVs from there on, even if it's "cured".

I looked on the main site, but the article didn't help me any.

Okay then, I'll take *Orion*'s word for it. I'll just do a lot of testing with the PC trick.
