I don't really understand this - a Pokemon can't get PokeRus twice, if that is the question.

---

can you reword the question, hester? It is confusing...

Answer 1

A Pokemon can only have the pokerus virus once and 24 hours out of the pc it is no longer contagious, BUT it always keeps the effects of it! No matter what! Just after 24 hours in your party it can't transfer it to any other Pokemon. So the short answer is no a single Pokemon cannot have it twice. If your asking if DIFFERENT Pokemon can get it then yes just have one with it and one without it in your party at the same time and the one without may get it.

Answer 2

It must be a glitch then. Pokemon can't get pokerus more than once.

thx. it really helped!

Answer 3

Did you check your Pokémon's Summary? If you look under its Sprite, you'll probably see a cute pink dot. If its there, your Pokémon have been infected before, and cannot get infected ever again. You may just have different Pokémon in your Party, that's all.

iv'e always had the pokemon that caught it. i never raise more than 1 pokemon unless i want a shiny.

Answer 4

A single Pokemon can't get pokerus twice since once it recovers, it is immune to the virus. If you at your Pokemon's summary, you will see a pink dot or a pink smiley face depending on the game.

If you are referring that can a trainer have more then one Pokemon with pokerus, then yes. Trainers can have as much Pokemon with pokerus as they want.
