Roar does not work in a 1v1 battle, correct? Or does it?

Correct, there's no Pokemon that can be forced in, and so it has no effect.

Uh, but, yeah, sorry I kind of vanished. School kinda overwhelmed me, and I failed math, so that why I kind of 'poofed'. I hope everyone didn't die!

There were only a few zombie apocalypses, so there are still a few survivors to try and fend off the menacing zombies! If you're still alive, you should join us!

Cross, don't fall for this! Ash is actually one of the zombies, he just wants dinner. Nice try Ash, looks like I've foiled your plan again.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... *jaw falls off hinge* BRAINZZ!

I need to get some zombie repellant. -kicks ashzombie in the face-

Thanks. One other question, how do abilities here work/are calculated?

Abilities work almost the same as in the games. The only real differences between the regular game and URPG are inside the Nat Park, since it's akin to the anime in that regard. Take Slaking's Truant; in the games and standard URPG battles, it misses a turn, in the park, it's just lazy.

Hey. D:< Don't make me go to trainer court and whine for a ban hammer to hit your poor cheek less ass!

Hmm. By my understanding, though, Pokemon from a species with multiple abilities will only have one of the abilities. For instance, how do I know whether my Growlithe has Intimidate or Flash Fire? Do I choose? Is it random?

You choose which ability your Pokémon has whenever you send it in battle. For the Park I believe you choose the Pokémon's ability when you post in the Front Gate. So technically, your Growlithe has both Intimidate or Flash Fire, (or even it's Dream World Ability, Justified, if you've taught it that from the Pokémart) it's just that you can use only one of them at a time.

Adding on to above, Abilities aren't used in the GSC/Stadium styles of battling in URPG, apart from a select few which would be broken otherwise (Slaking's Truant and Regigigas' Slow Start are two I can think of off the top of my head). But barely anyone uses those two styles in serious battles, so it's not a huge deal.

The full list that apply in GSC/Stadium are Truant (though I'm not sure about on Durant), Defeatist, Multitype, and I'd expect Slow Start (though Regigigas is legendary so it really doesn't need it :x)

Ooh, wasn't sure about Defeatist. I'm surprise Color Change isn't, just for novelty value :3

What about Wonder Guard? Shdeinja is practically useless otherwise.
