What you heard it pretty much right on the money. If you take it for a long time, then stop, the crappy water weight will go away.
That's why you're supposed to take protein instead.

No, it can also give you energy for a workout if you take it 30 minutes before. ATP stores or whatever.

Creatine isn't meant to bulk you up. It gives you energy for your workout and aids in the rebuilding of torn muscle fibers.
It's not a weight gainer in the sense that you'll get heavier or bigger just by taking it. And no, you won't shrink. You're actually supposed to stop using it after 4 weeks, wait for 2 and use it again.
