lets say its just your [[black]] king the opponent's [[white]] king and then a black bishop. if white's king is in the corner, can black king be moved right beside it, if blacks bisihop is guarding it. so it can be in checkmate? and you won't have to end in stalemate?
hope that makes sense!

You Cannot Move Into Check even if another peice is guarding- If you move next to the other king you are moving into check- this will end in a Stalemate as you have described it.

Yes, the king can move at any point in the game, one square at a time in any direction, as long as it doesn't move into check, or onto a square already occupied by another piece. The king can also castle, which means that it moves two spaces either to the right or left and puts the rook on the other side of it. You can only castle if: 1) You are not in check. 2)There are no pieces blocking the way between the king and the rook. 3)You have not moved either your king or your rook at any point in the game. 4) You're not moving through check, eg. a bishop is attacking the square next to the king, or any square that your king passes through while you castle. Happy chess playing:)

Nope, that's not allowed even though the black bishop is guarding the king. Still counts as moving the king into check.

No because the white king could takec the black king before getting killed by the bishop. What you describe is a draw.

No Kings cannot be side by side and if all thats left is a king and bishop its very difficult to checkmate unless the other guy has a pawn so you can corner him.Not to say that it cant be done with someone thats not real experienced.

If I'm understanding this the way your describing it, it'll be considered an illegal move since it's against the rules to move your king into check on purpose since the white king will be checked by the black king.

No, thats an Illegal move. You're moving your King into check. You would have to have another piece guarding since the King can only move one space. Or if it was the oponnents turn, he could only one way so it would be checkmate.

Scenario 1:
The white king can't take your king, since that would put him into check.
Scenario 2:
The white king can't move under your king, that would put him into check.
Scenario 3:
The white king can move straight down, there he would not be in check.
(This is fairly easy, but I'm having trouble seeing how you moved your king next to his king. Wouldn't that put you into check?)

The two kings can never be in adjacent squares, ever, since it is against the rules of chess to put yourself into check or checkmate.
