Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

If you mean activate it, yes.
This is probably one of those things asked every 3 pages but I couldn't find anything with a quick search.
If my Smeargle uses Conversion to become a Flying-type and uses Roost the following turn, what type is does my Smeargle become during the effects of Roost?
The Smogon Movedex entry says:
Hello Erodent.
If my Smeargle uses Conversion to become a Flying-type and uses Roost the following turn, what type is does my Smeargle become during the effects of Roost?
The Smogon Movedex entry says:
After the Conversion, does Smeargle actually register as a Flying-type for the purposes of Roost? Is it the typing that changes or just the Pokemon's weaknesses and resistances; for both moves.
Hello Erodent.
Since Smeagle has become a Flying Type using Conversion, when he uses Roost, it affects him the same way as any other flying type, his Flying type is "removed". Since Smeargle is MonoNormal, I'd think he would take neutral damage from every type, even ghost, while Roosting as a Flyer.
Can someone explain to me how the Smogon Teiring system came to be?
I don't understand why you guys goto so much effort when I would do something simple like "Ban Legends" or "Only one Legend allowed".
Garchomp in ubers seems ridiculous to me when it has a x4 weakness to ice, it's a free kill to my team (as are most dragons).

Through long periods of testing, Smogon has determined which Pokemon can be considered "game breaking", and those that are not. It's not simply theory. People feel overhelmed by Garchomp because it's fast, powerful, and has a diverse movepool. Furthermore, its Ice weakness can be rectified by Yache Berry, and that one turn Chomp can survive makes a lot of difference between living and dying. That's just one instance.
The Ban Legends rule is extremely stupid as there are Pokemon that arre more powerful than certain legends. Even if you cut those down, you still have to factor in other powerful Pokemon such as Lucario and Gyarados, which are better than some legendaries battle wise. Then it would get really complicated if you go by that rule.
The One legend rule is even worse. In a recent tourney held by my school, I took advantage of said rule and made it so that my team becomes horrendously powerful through Kyogre's rain and Garchomp and I swept everybody due to that factor. It's ridiculously unbalanced and centralizes everyone's teams to their strongest members, to the extreme.
Furthermore, the fact that you claim that dragons are free kills indicates that you have not battled very good trainers. Dragon is without a doubt the deadliest type in the game, and there has been plenty of discussion over fears that the game is being centralized around the Dragon and Steel types.
For some reason I can't access the Shoddybattle website and the program isn't opening, the error report reading as follows:

Apparently, you have a problem with the application. Try reinstalling it. If it doesn't work, go to shoddybattle's official support page, and check if you meet the minimal requirements, having the needed software, etc.. If it still not opening, try opening it later. Shoddy was lagging a while ago, so it might be the reason.
Hope this helps ;)

Ugh I despise that message so much. It scares me to bits.
One of these can work (no guarantees)
1) Check if there's msjava.dll in your System32 folder (if this is Windows). If you don't, go online and look for it. At least that's how mine failed the first time.
2) Restart your computer
3) Reinstall Java
4) Redownload Shoddy

well, since there really isn't a solid nu tier right now im just planning on using it in old uu
Is there any possible set for a Modest Solrock? Obviously a gimmick. And, no Baton Pass. (It's a chain) It also has Hidden Power Ground 70, if that's of any use.

Solrock has a very low Sp. Att, and since its modest natured, it'll have an even low attack. You can try Calm Mind, although Lunatone does it better, thanks to her higher Sp. Att. I'm assuming it's a shiny, right? Anyways, good luck in finding a better one.
EDIT: Thanks Lorak ;)

Yep, it is.
It was a fluke, but yeah. Just wondering if something like HP Ground 70/Grass Knot/Fire Blast/Psychic or something could work.
Does Scizor mke a good lead in you opinion?
haunter
Banned deucer.
You could try a specs set. About HP ground, I don't think it's that useful since solrock should be able to learn earth power in platinum if I'm not wrong.
Or maybe something like: earth power, psychic, fire blast, explosion with life orb?
