All items except expendable ones like Berries and Focus Sash are returned to the owner at the end of the battle.
I can personally vouch for Pickup's not working...ness. It activated against Morimoto's Simisomething and gave me a Petaya Berry, which wasn't there after the battle.

So that means I COULD steal Cheren's focus sash then? I tried it with thief and it didn't work. So I'll need a pickup pokemon?

You can steal it via Pickup, but it won't stay after the battle.

I'm not saying history of how they got them. Will my pokemon have less Health @L100 if its EVs get maxed at L28 in comparison to a pokemon who has max EVs @L1???
Like
L1 Pikachu @ 252 HP EV
from L1-L100 it will earn max +(HP)points every level up
when compared to an identical
L28 Pikachu @ 252 HP EV
from L1-28 its EVs were not maxed out, therefor it did not earn as many level up points for the first 27 levels
will the L1 Pikachu have better Health @L100, than the one you start at 28?
OR
will the game make up for it later on and just give you like +6 to the stat

The level won't matter. You get all your EVs in the end. However, it will have less health at 28 compared to level one if you fought against Pokemon and didn't think about EVs from whatever level it was obtained to 28.
No. It will be the same.

THE GREAT RETURN
Okay, this an EV question. I'm new to EV training, building my first team now. Just bred a Heracross with the nature I needed, so I need to know: If I have another pokemon fight, but Heracross holds the exp. share, does it still gain an EV?
Yes. If a Pokemon gains EXP from a defeated Pokemon, it also gains EVs.
Note that unlike EXP, EVs are NOT divided up among each Pokemon in battle.
Each Pokemon gains the full amount of EVs.
Say, for example, a wild Stoutland is defeated, which gives 3 Attack EVs.
Now, lets say two different Pokemon participated in that battle, and another was holding an EXP Share.
All three Pokemon each gain 3 Attack EVs. It is not divided into "1 EV Each"

Post E4, what is an easy way to train new pokemon? I've been training on Audinos, as I'm too weak for the E4 now, with my pokemon in their high 50s. I've tried a few monotype teams now and have gotten tired of them after going threw the entire game with a bug type team. I'm going to train an all new team again, and am wondering if there is an easier way to level then fighting wild Audinos in the post E4 area that are levels 47-50.
The only trouble with this method is that sometimes a higher level move that you don't want replaces an egg move that you want to keep. Learnt that the hard way :/

ポケモンはすごい！！
Big Stadium, Small Court, Royal Unova, rival rematch @ Victory Road, and wild PkMn within the Eastern Unova region.
Thanks you too. I had completely forgotten about the Big Stadium and Small Court. I'd love to do the Royal Unova, but I rarely play during the time it is available, and the last time I tried fighting my rival I got my butt kicked back to Kanto. That's when I decided to ditch my current monotype team.
Ok guys, I REALLY need help with this. I've been trying to trade forever (I tried 3 different people) and I always get Error Code: 86420. My connection bar is fully green, I was able to receive the Liberty Pass and catch Victini, and go battle on Wi-fi. However, I can't trade! It's so frustrating...if this helps, then my router is a Belkin-G+MIMO. Thanks a lot for any help

Support.Nintendo.com - Nintendo DS Family Systems - Error Code 86420
This error occurs when there is a communication problem between players during online gameplay.
There is a chance it is router-related or such, but it sounds to me like it's just server stress.
While features like Random WiFi and the GTS have worked nearly flawlessly for most players...
WiFi with friends has been reported as being horrible glitchy and not working very often.
Just how it goes when a brand new mega-popular game releases.
Supposedly, results have been achieved by some people by just trying and trying again.

Yes, but only if the mother has a Dream World ability since only female Dream World Pokemon may pass down their abilities.
