    How does Leech Life for energy work? I swear I've seen this before, or have seen another "normally restores health, but you can use it for energy" move before, but I can't seem to find a reference for this. The user expends energy to use the move, drains energy from the opponent, and restores...

    Gotcha. Thanks, both of you!

    Hmm, okay. So, for Uproar, I'm going with "damage affects a random opponent, no-sleeping and wake-if-sleeping affects entire field?" Does that sound right, then? (This may have been exactly what you guys just said but I'm still mildly confused so, clarifying haha) Or, do the in-game effects...

    Honestly, I'm kind of surprised this isn't a "damage the whole field" kind of move. Like, if it prevents anyone from sleeping, isn't it loud enough to damage everyone too? I don't recall the exact flavor of it, but.

    Question Box

    Uproar's target is listed as random - how does this work in a double battle? I assume the actual effect of the damage is random (can the user's ally be a potential random target?), and does the "no falling asleep" part of it affect the whole field?

    Type-resist berries say they last for one full round after consumption - does that mean a) three actions after consuming (carrying over between rounds if necessary), b) the next full round after consuming, or c) the rest of the current round in which consumption occurred?

    Question Box

    Does Uproar wake up any Pokemon already asleep? If a Pokemon is forced awake from a Rest sleep (if that's even possible - not sure if there are any other moves that could potentially awaken a sleeping pokemon), what happens to the health restored? Does the Pokemon lose out on what it would...

    Question Box

    If a round ends mid-action, what happens to the distribution of Toxic poison? Normally it accrues throughout the round - does it suddenly all get shifted to whatever actions take place, or does the Pokemon take less Toxic damage than it should for that round? I'm thinking increase severity as...

    Questions involving Link Cables, Trace, Pickup, and Knock Off: So a Link Cable grants the holder Trace right away at the beginning of the battle. Trace then immediately copies Pickup (in this case) in addition to the holder's original ability. Right? Or does the additional Trace ability...

    Also, can something like Encore be affected by accuracy drops? It doesn't seem like it should, but it has 100% accuracy instead of -- accuracy, and if it was an attacking move, it would be susceptible.

    Question Box

    For energy calculation purposes, does "never missing" (Swift, Magical Leaf, etc) count as a secondary effect? I feel like it doesn't count.

    Can Sleep Talk call Rest? I'm thinking Rest would not work if you're already asleep, but would it be a potential (if ineffective) choice in the Sleep Talk pool?

    A Pokemon does not need to be told to use its Weakness Policy, correct? What items DO require command from the trainer?

    Can this essentially be treated as an automatic, 10% health Substitute at the start of the battle?

    Question Box

    For future reference: if Pokemon A uses Encore on Pokemon B, and Pokemon B realizes it's been Encore'd and breaks it early, does Pokemon A know that Pokemon B has been released from Encore early? Or does Pokemon A have to wait until Pokemon B chooses a non-Encore'd move to realize that?

    Question Box

    If a first-stage Pokemon needs 2 more exp to evolve to its second evolution, and needs to be holding an item to evolve to its third evolution, can it evolve straight to the third evolution if it enters that battle holding the item and gets 2 exp from it? Or does it need to enter the battle...

    Question Box

    Are items that help a Pokemon evolve (stones, etc.) used up when the Pokemon evolves, or do you get to keep the item?
