The Pokémon Virus (Aka. the POKéRUS)

[TheOneAndOnlyPorygon]

Greetings.

After randomly training my newly bred porygon (YAY!) I have recently discovered, that it have gotten infected with Pokérus.

I read about it, but is there a way I can keep a Pokémon with Pokérus and what is the best and easiest way to spread it?

The Bulbapedia article is pretty good, but I'd be willing to answer any other questions you have.

Once it gets Pokerus, it's effects stay forever, but it won't be able to infect other Pokemon you have after it's been in your party for two nights. You can just put it in your PC box and it'll keep the Pokerus if it's in there, though.

To spread it, just stick it in your party, and go into a fight. The Pokemon next to it in your party will get infected with it after the fight, and it'll spread like that.

I've gotten Pokerus randomly once. My Umbreon from Colosseum got it in Pearl. I say use it while you can.
