After a bill has been vetoed it has the choice of either being brought back by a 2/3 majority vote from the senate to override the Presidents veto. Either that or the president goes and sux a dick

After a bill is vetoed it is sent back to the congress, they can either make changes to the bill and try to get it approved again, OR they can vote and override the presidents veto.

What happens to a bill if the president uses a pocket veto?

It is dead, just as if he had used the traditional veto. There is one major difference. A bill that is pocket vetoed does not automatically go back to Congress for consideration of an override of the veto. Such a bill must be re-introduced as a new bill at the start of the next Congressional session. Then it gets treated as a new bill, meaning it canbe passed by simple majority, sent to the president for approval and vetoed (or not) in the usual fashion. Then it goes back to Congress for consideration of an override of the veto.
