The pokerus will naturally spread to the other pokemon in your party. There is not special way of transmitting the disease. Just give it some time and the rest of your pokemon will be infected :rolleyes:.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that if you trade the infected pokemon over to FR/LG then it cannot pass on the virus but because there is no time function in that game, it will have the Pokerus forever.

That sucks a lot, but you will have it soon!

I guarantee that trading Pokerus Pokemon on WiFi will have value. :cool:

There is.:tongue:
Place the pokemon in your team. Then level up that pokemon and the virus will have spread.

Don't forget about pokerus going after a few hours. I learned the hard way.:sad:
I still have some of it, but just a bit. If you're not going toplay, put your pokemon with Pokerus in the PC.That way the virus won't disappear.:wink:

I've got Pokerus and here are some tips, to spread it, verse wild Pokemon, it spreads amazingly fast that way, and don't turn off when someone that you want to keep Pokerus on is in your party, leave it for long enough and it goes, I have never had a Pokemon lost it while it was in my party.

It will also show you in the Pokemon status screen:

Pokerus just helps out with your EV's you get for killing other pokemon (it doubles them). What makes me mad is I've played the new pokemon games since they came out and I've never got it before. I honestly have over 100 hours on each of my games but anyways lucky you. Hope you have fun

You trade it, you AR/Gameshark it, or you find it in the wild.
The virus is extremely rare though and you could waste your life on searching for it and never find it.:eek:
I don't have to, I already have it.:cool: In fact, I plan on trading my infected pokemon for rare pokemon in D/P over wi-fi.

I might to. And amazingly I could get the pokerus in a couple hours or less on a new file in Ruby or Sapphire:eek:

Damn. I'm never lucky when it comes to Pokemon. The IVs of my Pokemon are usually... ugh.

I got it on my Sapphire only and that was after a lot more than 100 hours.

P.S. I'll probably be trading everyone Pokerus as soon as I get DP... in Australian time.
