Simple Questions

[Haruki Hanai]

Because the demand of questions for Diamond and Pearl seem to be getting a bit more prominent in this forum, I'm making a Simple Questons thread a bit early.

Basically, this thread covers questions that can be asked without needing to create a full discussion thread about it, ranging from questions like "What are the requirements for the National Dex?" to "Where do I find the plates that change Arseus' form?".

Anybody who knows the answer can reply. Anybody can ask a question, too. Please, however, use "Search this Thread" to see if the question's been answered, first.

Make sure you check the FAQ before asking a question! Chances are it could be there, and you may not have to ask here. ~ The Hunk

[Ayano Katagiri]

Yay! Thank you Wolt for making a Simple Questions thread for D/P.
Well this is gonna help. Since no one is answering my thread, I'll post it here and see what I get.
So, How can I get myself a secret base in the Shinou Underground?

!!**Alex**!! http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m28/Alex0117/393.gif

I thought someone already answered in another thread... Oh well.

Anyways, to make a secret base (reading from Serebii.net) you have to:

1. Go to Hakutai City.
2. Find the Old Man that has the Drill.

NOTE: This drill can only be used once, so be careful!

(Additional Steps:) In case you ever want to go make a new Secret Base, you talk to the Hikers located in the Underground.
They should give you a Drill.

You can also buy items from the Hikers, but like Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, you have to pay for the items.

I hope that helps!

[Ratiasu-kun]

I believe you can buy more drills from the hikers, though.

[Dsaerno]

I don't have either version yet- I live in the USA and I'm waiting for the American version. Last time, before Ruby and Sapphire came out, I downloaded a translated ROM and it spoiled everything. This time, I'm waiting.

That said-
How many new Pokemon are there?
How many total Pokemon are there?
And how many of these new Pokemon are obtainable only by Nintendo Events?

[Ratiasu-kun]

How many new Pokemon are there? 107
How many total Pokemon are there? 493
And how many of these new Pokemon are obtainable only by Nintendo Events? I think 4, Aruseus, Darkrai, Sheimi and Manaphy... am I missing anyone guys?

Nope, those should be the proper numbers.

Something that I have in mind...

Are...

...evolutions of Eevee ??

PD: Yeah, it's sorta stupid thing xD

[Ratiasu-kun]

Yes they are. The grass and ice ones as Im sure youve figured out ^_^

[Auron]

More Eevee evolutions ?? Lol...So I have to do a hard work for getting all evos xDD

[poke_fan16]

when will this crap come out in AMERICA?!

[poke_fan16]

can u pick how ur character looks?

[Ayano Katagiri]

when will this crap come out in AMERICA?!
can u pick how ur character looks?

1. This isnt "crap". Its a game so dont call it that.
2. No confirmed date for D/P for US. but rumoured March 28th.
3. No

[Ratiasu-kun]

It'll probably come out in USA in early Spring 2007. And please dont double-post, use the little [edit] button on the bottom right of your post.

[Mistic_lucario]

what is the hometown of the main character?

[Ayano Katagiri]

what is the hometown of the main character?

I assume you mean the person you play as... Futaba Town

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

Just want to ask a simple question, or maybe a toughie:

Has it been proven how Aruseus is caught? (ex. Catch All Pokemon, event, etc.)

If it has, then do you go to an event, or do you just catch all the Pokemon?

If anyone can answer this, thank you very much.

1. This isnt "crap". Its a game so dont call it that.
2. No confirmed date for D/P for US. but rumoured March 28th.
3. No

Where's the third question? XD

From,
~TheRoad
The Key Item to get him is likely by events, because by default the key item (Heaven's Pipe) is not in the game.

[Ayano Katagiri]

Where's the third question? XD

XD The third question was the one about if you could pick how your character looks and I answered "no". XD but I see what you mean. I stated three points thats all so it may have seem like answering three questions

[Micklo]

Is there a Pokémon blocking the road on the map like in all the other games. For example.

R/B/Y Snorlax
G/S/C Sudowood
R/S/E Kecleon

Thanks in advance

:t131:Micklo

[Sumshine 904]

That's a good question... Probibly so.

[Shuko]

Not really. ;) This time around, the only pokemon blocking your path is a flock of Psyduck, and you have to obtain medicine to "use" on them before they'll leave. But they won't attack you when you give it to them, so it's not really the same thing. xD

Still, with all the legendaries and Ubers in this game, I guess it all balances out. :P

[Xylitol]

Does anyone have a map of Sinnoh with names of the places on it? I'm really confused with people talking about "Tengan mountain" and all the citys etc.

[Ratiasu-kun]

Here's (http://www.serebii.net/archive/September-2006.shtml) one off SPP. Scroll down to the middle-ish of the page. Its just the in-game map, but it has city/lake/route/mountain names when u mouse over it. Tengan Moutains is the big range running down the middle of Sinnoh

[Ayano Katagiri]

I posted one a while ago, is this what you are looking for?
http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m28/Alex0117/pokemon_dp_world.png

[Harris]

Thats a nice map there.

Anyone have a map of Victory Road?

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

I have to ask, because the map states that you can see the opposite legend of your game's in Kannagi Town, what does that mean?

Does it mean Diamond's Diaruga will appear, or Pearl's Parukia will appear if I had a game of Diamond.

Simply put, if you don't understand:

If I have a game of Diamond, will there appear

Dialga
or
Paruka
?

Just wanted to know...
Thanks, anyone, if you can help.

I dont think you can see it. Although I posted the map, I did not make it so Im not certain about that. But I am pretty sure you cant see Parukia in Diamond and likewise Diagura in Pearl. Maybe the legend means storyline?? Does D/P have a storyline for each legendary kinda like what R/S had??

[Myzou]

In Diamond, you get Dialga, and Vice Versa :)

During the game, a trainer will show you the opposite one, which makes it possible to obtain the national dex without trading or anything like that, all sinnoh pokemon are seeable in game without trading except Manaphy and Fione :D

[Ratiasu-kun]

Thats convenient... Even Aruseusu, Darkrai and Sheimi? That would seem too good to be true

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

The event Pokemon are in the game, however, no person can just "show" them, you have to access them by event.

I think they mean the Sinnoh PokeDex, not the National PokeDex, in which Aruseus, Darkrai and Sheimi would be located.

Anyways, thanks for answering my question, guys...

Much appreciated!

[Xylitol]

Forgot to say thanks for the map. I understand a lot better now. :)

But I have another question: Do you need to beat e4/do random stuff before you can get pokemon that appear depending on the GBA game in GBA slot? I'd really like to have Growlithe(with my Fire Red) right at the start instead of that over-used Ponyta.

[RKO1125]

Sorry dude, but Growlithe is only available after you recieve the National Dex. there aren't many fire type Pokemon in the Sinnoh dex. I just used Hikozaru...not that piece of crap ponyta. I hate that thing.

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

What I'm curious about is what region your Pokemon FireRed is, in the first place, because you can only use select Pokemon from other places outside of Japan.

Anyways, assuming you have the Japanese version, and you want to get a Growlithe, I think that you can, because Growlithe is located in Route 201/Route 202. Only Pal Park is an E4 beat exclusive. However, if you want to get your own Growlithe from FireRed, you have to beat the Elite 4 first.

Hope this answered your questions.

Oh, and btw, they won't appear in your PD until you get the National Dex.

[Xylitol]

Well, my Fire Red is European, and I was thinking that I would import Diamond when it comes out in North America. But because it hasn't come out yet, I guess you can't really confirm if it works between those versions. :/

(I assume that you meant that you could get Growlithe that way before e4)

[Ayano Katagiri]

Ok, I have two questions!

1. How do I get rid of the man blocking my way to get on the route towards the 8th gym?
2. Where is the Hotel Key?

[Captain Arcane]

Ok, my question is kinda like requests, but here I go.

What are the new eight gym badges, can I have pictures.

Foreign Transfers (http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/foreign.shtml).

Serebii.net proved this some time ago, but you still can't trade Growlithes there. It's a shame.

Ok, I have two questions!

1. How do I get rid of the man blocking my way to get on the route towards the 8th gym?
2. Where is the Hotel Key?

1. You can only get rid of him once you have gotten the 7th Gym Badge, and gotten Diaruga/Parukia. After you've gotten those criteria done, you can access the place, and then go to the 8th Gym.

2. The Hotel Key is a Nintendo event that will contain Darkrai, in which once you obtain it, you get to go to sleep inside the Hotel, and Darkrai will disturb you.

Ok, my question is kinda like requests, but here I go.

What are the new eight gym badges, can I have pictures.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k237/vhsu22/8badges.jpg

This picture was from Serebii.net, and now from my Photobucket, in case they wish to delete it. If is located in their Diamond/Pearl Gym Leaders section.

I hope I helped!

[Raticate_ninja]

I downloaded rom, and it's not working what to do ?...
with what emulator i must open it and how ?

[Shiny_Latios]

there are no emulators that work on all DS roms and certainly not D/P you must wait and there was already a thread on this in the D/P section

[Ayano Katagiri]

I downloaded rom, and it's not working what to do ?...
with what emulator i must open it and how ?

The fact that you downloaded the D/P Rom was a waste of time unless you have a Nintendo DS Supercard. Thats all the ROMS can be used for ATM unlike the GBA ROMS. There is no working DS Emulator.

Okay, I have a new question.

How long approximately is the Victory Road and what HMs will you need inside?

EDIT: Finished VR now. Dont worry.

[Kamui]

Need:
Items and Attack list from japanese translated into english like:
":":"(japaneese) = Fly(english)

i need a list in that format.

[Professor Pine]

When you upload a pokemon and catch it in pal park does it keep its oringal OT or does it get a new one, the one you up-loaded it onto?

Will the US version be able to trade with the UK version?

[Ayano Katagiri]

When you upload a pokemon and catch it in pal park does it keep its oringal OT or does it get a new one, the one you up-loaded it onto?

It keeps its original Trainer number just as if it was traded to you.

[Kamui]

I allready have 8 badges.
Where can I see my Friend Code of wifi.
I know its a stupid question but.....xD

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

That's... on the DS. You can find it by going to the third option from NEW GAME, OPTION, and WIFI.

Once you're there, you should go to the red button. Then, you go to the top button.

Your friend code is there.

Bah hah.

Anyways, so nobody will ask where the Move Tutors are, I'll list them here. Just because I'm nice. Not.

MOVE TUTOR: THE ELEMENTAL HYPER BEAMS

Found in Route 228, this old man can teach your starter Pokemon (or Grass/Fire/Water type Pokemon) the moves Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn, and Hydro Cannon. You should be familiar with these moves if you own Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen.

MOVE TUTOR: METEORIC SWARM

This old lady at Route 210 can teach your Dragon-type (and Aruseus, OMG) Meteoric Swarm. Yes, that's the move that was named from the competition that no one really cares about. Can I stop rambling now?

Anyways, to get these moves, your Pokemon has to have a high happiness level. I recommend two hearts. If you need to check your Pokemon happiness level, you can use your Poketch function Happiness Checker, which can be obtained from Hakutai City, in the Pokemon Center, and ask the woman in front of you (and no, not Nurse Joy!)

Anyways, have fun.

[Akiyo]

Does anyone know the release date for this game other than the Japan one?

[Ayano Katagiri]

There is no confirmed date for release yet in US or Europe, but it is probable that it will be around April next year.

[Ratiasu-kun]

April the latest (I hope). They said the first quarter of 2007

[Shining_Parukia]

i think april-may latest or the earliest is late march

[Kamui]

That's... on the DS. You can find it by going to the third option from NEW GAME, OPTION, and WIFI.

And where can i add friend codes? xD

[light_trainer921]

I have a question too. I know I have to see 150 Pokémon to get the National Dex but how can I see Parukia in Diamond?

[Ayano Katagiri]

I have a question too. I know I have to see 150 Pokémon to get the National Dex but how can I see Parukia in Diamond?

Go to Kannagi Town and talk to the old woman in one of the houses at the top of the town and Parukia will appear in your Pokedex.

[Samson]

im thinking february myself. feb 21st.

[ainee]

hello guys want to know is there any working emulator.i spend my whole day downloading rom of pokemon D/P but know there is no emulator

[Ayano Katagiri]

There isnt a working commercial DS emulator, you just wasted your time downloading the ROM unless you have a NDS Supercard.

[ainee]

There isnt a working commercial DS emulator, you just wasted your time downloading the ROM unless you have a NDS Supercard.now what nds super card is

[Kamui]

Did a new start yesterday.
I am in Tobari City gym and cant get up..
The slider is upon but i am down...
What to do?
I have allready done this before cant remember anymore.

[Shiny_Latios]

now what nds super card is

A nds super card is either a GBA or NDS cartridge (i don't fully know) that you can place roms of games on as long as you have bios 7 and 9 but dont request here

Why did you PM this to me... XD

Anyways, I'll write down here so no one gets confused in case some other bum tries to ask the same question:

THE 3RD GYM IS NOT IN YOSUGA CITY!

Rather, you enter the Big Circle Place, you see your Mom and sister, you battle Rival once you exit the BCP, then get out of the city through the right, go battle, go past Zui Town, go all the way to other town, then battle Gym Leader there.

(BTW, a weird thing about the Yosuga Gym. How can Rival beat the Yosuga Gym, if she's the 5th Gym Leader and still lose to someone who hasn't beaten the 3rd Gym yet? It's so confusing...)

Any other questions?

EDIT: Wrong Gym, I thought he meant Yosuga. I'm an idiot.

Anyways, I'll try to help as best I can.

1. From the middle square with the guy, push the piece LEFT.
2. Then, turn to the left side of the square, and push the second piece LEFT.
3. Then, go completely left, go through the pieces, and go all the way and push the uppermost piece RIGHT.
4. Go back to 2, except instead of turning to the left side, go to the right side, and push LEFT.
5. Go through, and push the upper piece LEFT.
6. Go to the rightmost square, and push the piece RIGHT.
7. Go through that square to the upper square, and push the piece RIGHT gym.
8. Go to the left of the bottom-right square, and push the piece RIGHT. You'll see why soon.
9. Push the upper piece RIGHT.
10. Go to the right of the right square, and go all the way up until you can get to the top piece, then push it LEFT.
11. Go from 7, but keep going up, and push the piece LEFT.
12. Go back to 2, except push the first piece from the bottom RIGHT.
13. Go through the two left squares and push the piece RIGHT.
14. Go through from the middle squares, and save. You're at the Gym Leader!

[Ayano Katagiri]

A nds super card is either a GBA or NDS cartridge (i don't fully know) that you can place roms of games on as long as you have bios 7 and 9 but dont request here

It is for DS... XD why else is it called NDS Supercard??

(BTW, a weird thing about the Yosuga Gym. How can Rival beat the Yosuga Gym, if she's the 5th Gym Leader and still lose to someone who hasn't beaten the 3rd Gym yet? It's so confusing...)
Yeah, I didnt pay attention to that before. But now that you mention it, it is strange.

[cubanresourceful]

Hi, just a simple question. Is there an actual noticeable difference between a female and male Pokemon? If so, can you provide pictures as I haven't been able to find some! :D

[Ayano Katagiri]

There are some differences but some of them arent significant. Sometimes you need to look pretty hard to find it. I cant recall one ATM though.

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

Think Beedrill was an example, but just guessing. Hehe~

Anyways, I know you can get the Heart Scale in the Underground, but how exactly do you get it?

Is there a specific method, or do you just find it randomly, what?

I think Butterfree is too...

You get heart scales same way as you get the gems in it. You dig them up through the little cave things. And its random I'm pretty sure.

[deoxys123]

when will this game come out in America ?

[Cornicapus]

i think it will come outin U.S.A around Feb-April but when will be released in Aus?

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

when will this game come out in America ?

ARGHWT!

There is a thread called US Diamond/Pearl Release Date. That should clear everything up.

But if you feel lazy, I'll put it here:

APRIL 22, 2007

[Ayano Katagiri]

Hey, just a question~ my game's glitched.... so what should I do now?? I can no longer go upstairs in a Pokemon center without crazy black darkness areas that I can actually walk in...

[cubanresourceful]

Thanks for telling me, I thought the significance would show, as in diferientation against say, know the difference between a female and male dog.

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

Hey, just a question~ my game's glitched.... so what should I do now?? I can no longer go upstairs in a Pokemon center without crazy black darkness areas that I can actually walk in...

O_O

What did you do to your poor game?

Anyways, you can send it to Nintendo of Japan to fix it, or you could ask a pen pal in Japan to get a fix.

If you have neither option available, you are screwed.

But besides that, you should probably tell how you got the glitch. We need more info guys!

(Oh, and shameless advertising: Try updating in Pokemon Glitch thread. Wii need mo' info and how NOT to do these things!)

I dont know XD...

I think it was because I walked into the Union room by accident and then came out, saved my game and then when I played the following day, I attempted to go upstairs into the Pokemon Center and it moves me automatically down into the black area beneath the actual floor itself.

[SSJ4 Furatman]

Oh this sounds like the union room gltch of the pokemon legaue center yeah it turns your game all glitchy and stuuf

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

I dun' know what to do.

All right, here's my question:

How do you setup the GTS so you know what you're doing?

I just pressed some random buttons, and now my Pokemon's up in the air... It's CANDE, btw, if you wanted to know the nickname.

What I need is a guide, or something. How to set up your GTS, and what to do/what not to do.

Waaa~

[Ayano Katagiri]

Oh this sounds like the union room gltch of the pokemon legaue center yeah it turns your game all glitchy and stuuf
Yeah I think thats the main problem... does it only happen at the Pokemon League?? I think I might have bought one of the glitchy carts when I bought it on the first day out in Japan...
I dun' know what to do.

Waaa~

I dont know if this will help but it was all I could find on the GTS trading...
------------
GTS Trading (4GTS)
------------

The GTS centre in Kotobuki Town, west of the pokemon centre. A lady will stop
unless you have the "red book". Once you go in, you will notice a globe. This
doesn't really apply to you, unless you live in Japan. You can chose the
location where you live. I don't think this effects anything though.

[Going online] (4GON)

Talk to the lady there, the second option explains how GTS works, in Japanese.
The third option is cancel. Chose to first option to go online.

After you save you game, you will escorted into the room. It will then ask you
to connect to GTS, press. You will "land" in a room, and automatically access
a computer.

- Storing pokemon:

The first option is to "store" a pokemon. It can be any pokemon from your party
or PC. Once you click on a pokemon a window comes up, the first option is
the summary screen. This a pokemon that you would be willing to trade for
another.

The second option takes you a another screen, with a orange box and a green box
on screen. A list of singular characters will come up. This is like the
Japanese alphabet. After you select a character, it should look like this.

-----------------------------------
| _ ______ |
| seeking: |x| |xxx | |
| [......] |x| |xxxx | |
| [......] |x| |xxxxx | |
| |x| |xxxx | |
| offering: |x| |xxxx | |
| [onix M] |x| |xxxxx | |
| [ lv.8] |x| |xxx | |
| - ------ |
| |
-----------------------------------


You may only "seek" for pokemon that you have seen in your pokedex, and offer
pokemon that you have. The lower box is the pokemon you are offering - gender
and level.

By checking what pokemon you are looking in your pokedex, and writing the
characters down, you should be able to "guess" the appropriate matching
characters. If you can't match the character to any corresponding heading. You
will have to scroll through them all until you find the pokemon you are looking
for.

It will then ask you to select gender. The first option is no preference. The
second option is male, the third - female.

After you select the gender of the pokemon, you can select the desired level
of the pokemon that you want. It ranges from "no preference", "under level 10",
"above level 10", all the way up to "level 100".

It will then ask you to confirm your "wanted pokemon". An animation will appear
of your pokeball flying into the air, just like in a regular trade.

Your pokemon will now be "left" on the GTS service. You can only leave one
pokemon here at a time. If another person has the pokemon that you want, a
trade will be conducted, you do not need to be there when it happens. You can
withdraw the pokemon at any time, if it has not been traded off.

If you click the top option after you have stored your pokemon, you can "check"
it. Press A once, and you will be given two options, the first one ask you if
you want to "withdraw" your pokemon, confirm this by pressing A again. The
second option is to return back to the original screen.

- Searching for pokemon:

The second option allows for you to search for pokemon, the layout looks like
this:

-----------------------------------
| |
| pokemon: |
| [......] [search] |
| |
| gender: |
| [xxxxx] |
| |
| level: [cancel] |
| [xxxxx] |
| |
-----------------------------------

Similarly to storing pokemon, you use the top option on the right, and you
will be greeted with the Japanese alphabet chart thing. Chose the pokemon like
you did for storing pokemon.

Then click on the search function. Once again you can only search for pokemon
that you have in your pokedex. After the search is completed, depending if
anyone has the pokemon you are searching for, they will pop up on the touch
screen, were you can select them.

Once you have selected them, you can view the pokemon that they want, and what
level they want it to be on. If you have that pokemon, press A, and select it
from your PC or party, and a trade will be made.

Same happens to me...
My Goukuzeru went to the air..
After pressing something I got it back in my team. xD.

Sorry but what you told is confusing me more than before.lol
Can you just tell what the 3 things means?
Well after you are inside the station a menu with 3 things apears.

Ummm.... I actually dont know... I saw that info posted by another person elsewhere and it was on the GTS trading stuff... I figured that you guys might have been able to figure it out as you do use the GTS Wi-fi. I havent yet but I'll give you the link. Its from someone at Gamefaqs.

Clicky (http://db.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/file/pokemon_dp_trading.txt)

Maybe that will clear some things up reading the whole thing?

[It was funny when I typed it.]

id like to know which pokemon can learn theif and false swipe.. or a move similar to false swipe

[p o k e m o n]

every body tell me how to catch aruseus but idont no how to catch

[羨望]

every body tell me how to catch aruseus but idont no how to catch
Just use a Master Ball if you have one on you bag if not try using ultra balls and try to get Aresaus to sleep,Paralysis,ect is hard but do not give up but if you refering where to catch go here (http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/legendaries.shtm)




Ren-Kun
See ya

[p o k e m o n]

no ineed to see aruseus but idont no how

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

no ineed to see aruseus but idont no how

AFGHAFGHAFGH

OK, now that that's cleared out of my system, you need the following things in real life.

1 ACTION REPLAY DS
1 NINTENDO DS
1 ACTION REPLAY CODE MANAGER
x NUMBER OF EVENT CODES (x = as many as you want)
1 POKEMON DIAMOND/PEARL

and the following things completed in the game:

1 NATIONAL DEX
BEAT THE ELITE 4

Then, using the Aruseus event code (go look at the ACTION REPLAY thread for more details! XD), do all the ACTION REPLAY stuff which is so boring and yawnable but I command you to....

"AHEM" After setting up your Action Replay, just boot up your game, load your game, HOLD L+R (those two shoulder buttons) and walk into a PokeMart. There, you'll see that weird guy that likes to stalk you at events. A Pokemon FedEx?

Anyways, talk to him, and you'll get the Heaven's Pipe, which is a smoking tool, and is advertised to give you seizures if you light it up and smoke it.

Now, once you have that, go to Tengan Mountain, and go all the way to where you battled Parukia or Diaruga. Then, an option will pop up, if you've gotten the National Dex. (I'll answer that question later, if anyone needs help on that)

Press the top option (which is YES) and watch as you become enchanted with smoking-I-mean-playing of the Heaven's Pipe. (Geez, they should have called it a flute or something...)

Then, you'll find that you can move again, and stairs will appear out of nowhere, with creepy Pokemon sounds BGM leading you. I RECOMMEND YOU SAVE NOW!

Then, Aruseus will battle you at the top, and you will get pwned. THE END.

Well, unless you have a MasterBall, or you have a party of Lv. 100. Then it's pwned. Hahahaha~

Or, if you just want to see how the last steps are performed, use these two links:
Crappy Quality Link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc6hkh6lFSc)
Better Quality Link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6Hggw46e6s)

They'll both aid you on what to do.

Hope I helped (and made you want to kill me with my stupid jokes XD).

[p o k e m o n]

i dont have action replay

how to get heaven's pipe

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

i dont have action replay

how to get heaven's pipe

Buy an AR.

I hear you can find many in Best Buy and Future Shop recently.

That's the only way you can get Heaven's Pipe.

They haven't released the event yet, for crying out loud!

[Ayano Katagiri]

Buy an AR.

Yeah simply enough that's the solution.

Anyway, I have a question. What should I use my Master Ball on? I was gonna use it on Emuritto but I havent yet. I'm just wondering is there something more important to use it on.

There's not much else that's important except for Creselia (Kureseliia, I think?) which runs around like Emuritto.

The difference is that Creselia may be harder to catch. Its all up to you in the end.

[Ichaste Pekoni]

Or save it for if/when the Aruseus event is made public ;)

[Ratiasu-kun]

Or save it for if/when the Aruseus event is made public ;)

Like thatll happen... '_'

But Id still rate Creselia above Emrit (Using romanized names here)

Oh okay, I dont really like having pokemon around with mean look etc type moves that stops them running away. I'll just have to catch a Golbat sometime soon. Thanks anyway~

[~|symphony♪]

This isn't really about the game but where do you get good D/P sprites?

[Ayano Katagiri]

This isn't really about the game but where do you get good D/P sprites?

You could go on Serebii's D/P Pokedex (http://serebii.net/pokedex-dp/) or use Pokemon Elite 2000 (http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites.html)

Thank you very much

[Cornicapus]

i hav a question...... when ure in pal park is thee a time limit for how long you can be in there? other than when you catch all the pokemon in the park?

[Ratiasu-kun]

Well, there is a time limit, but not for how long you can be in Pal Park. If you catch all 6 of your transferred pokémon within the time limit however, you will get them all plus a special prize. If you dont, you just get your pokémon

[ZERO//.2K]

I just started a new game and it won't let me save over it. Did you have to be at a certain point in the game to save, if so where or is my thing being screwy?

[Ayano Katagiri]

Your game might be 'screwy', there's no point in the game where you need to be to save. Once you can access the save menu, you should be able to save your game.

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

I just started a new game and it won't let me save over it. Did you have to be at a certain point in the game to save, if so where or is my thing being screwy?

I know what you're doing.

Chances are, you haven't erased your old game file.

To start a new game that you can save, you have to go all the way until you see the silhouette of Diaruga/Parukia. Basically, the title screen.

Then, you have to press Up+B+Select. If you don't really understand, it's the D-Pad Up.

An option will appear. Just select the top option, and presto! Your game is now erased.

Now you can save a new file over your old one.

I don't know why they changed the save function, so don't ask, mmk?

Is there anyway to get more items to decorate the Pokemon during Contests?

Link (http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/game/925601.html)

Depends on your progress. I can't tell what you have so far, so I recommend you either go to Serebii.net or use the link I gave, then click on the Items or Super Contest Guide.

Sorry, I can't help you any more besides that :'(

i think 491 looks like 354's evolution:laugh: :cool: :shocked:

This is the Simple Questions thread, not the Chat thread. If you want to talk about what you think, do it on MSN or something. :D

And no, Banette is not a pre-evolution look-a-like for Darkrai. They may both be ghostly, and they may be black, but nothing else resembles it... *gets shot*

Please, people, don't say useless posts in here. People actually need real answers to questions :P

[Rayquaza1]

How do you get Eevee and the moss rock and the ice rock used to evolve it? I heard from mizuki in yosuga city. if that's true then when and if it isn't where and when?

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

How do you get Eevee and the moss rock and the ice rock used to evolve it? I heard from mizuki in yosuga city. if that's true then when and if it isn't where and when?

Yep, it's in Yosuga City. Somewhere maybe in Beauty Park, me thinks.

You do have to have beaten the E4, or *completing the game* as they say it. You also need a spare spot, like 5 Pokemon instead of 6.

The Moss Rock and the Ice Rock are not obtainable as well. You need to go to Route 217, near the Ice town which name eludes me for some reason, and battle near the rock. Same strategy with the Moss Rock, except you need to go to Hakutai Forest.

WHERE DO YOU GET SUPER/GOOD ROD? ;_;

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

Erm, sorry if this has been posted before, but...
WHERE DO YOU GET SUPER/GOOD ROD? ;_;

I could only find the location of the Good Rod for now, so sorry.

The Good Rod is located at Route 209, where you have to talk to him to receive the Rod.
You have to say YES when he gives a prompt for YES and NO. It's the top button.

[Mrbadboy3]

Ok WTH is up with serebii? because i've been searching for a scorpi or a dorapion for 2 hrs and I cant seem to find it in Safaru Zone can anyone confirm seeing one of them there???Oh and which area? 1,2,3,4,5,6 :)

[Ayano Katagiri]

Erm, sorry if this has been posted before, but...
WHERE DO YOU GET SUPER/GOOD ROD? ;_;

Super Rod is located so late in the game... After you beat the Elite Four and become Champion you will have access to the North-Eastern island. You will find Super Rod in the first town you visit there, called "Fighting Area". There is a fisherman at the north exit of the town and after you visit the Battle Tower, the people blocking the way will move and you will be able to talk to him and receive the Super Rod!

[Ratiasu-kun]

Do you guys know if Psycho Shift (http://www.serebii.net/attackdex-dp/psychoshift.shtml) will shift your status effect to the opponent even if he/she already has one, or not?

[Bobby]

I doubt it will. It would have to eliminate the status or shift it to you. It says nothing about trading status's. It'll probably give you one of those So and So used Psycho Shift....But it failed.

[Deoxys_5]

it won't work at all, not doubt impossible.

[Rayquaza1]

What are all of the pokemon in the shinou dex? cuz I'm at the elite four and i'm one pokemon short of getting the national dex. I have 145 pokemon and I will see three at with the champion and after I see 149 pokemon I'll have to go to Kannagi Town and see a picture of parukia, right? The pokemon I need to know at least are numbers 108, 111, 114, and 139.

You will see Mikaruge, Gaburiasu and Milotic at the E4. Unown is found to the East of Zui Town

[Rayquaza1]

Thanks, !!**Alex**!!. I found unown.

I found a trick that really works just in case anybody asks how to instantly catch a pokemon. As soon as you make the selection to throw a ball at a pokemon, keep pressing the poke ball picture on the bottom screen as if it were a button or something. If you keep pressing without stopping the poke/great/ultra ball will shake twice and that is when you should keep pressing with two fingers. I always do that on wild pokemon. I hope I helped.

[Samson]

i have a question, but it is more concerned with the DS rather D/P. i didn't know where else to ask, so i figured this was somewhat fitting.

what does it mean when your DS starts flashing green? XDD

[Rayquaza1]

If you mean the light that shows how much power is left in the DS then that is because you closed the lid of the DS. The flashing part is just to show that the DS is still on.

[Ayano Katagiri]

If you mean the light that shows how much power is left in the DS then that is because you closed the lid of the DS. The flashing part is just to show that the DS is still on.

Or that you are accessing the DS's Wireless connections. E.g Shinou Underground.

[Samson]

it must be the wireless. XD sometimes i just get bored and draw things on PictoChat. only recently, it's been flashing green while i mess around with it, so i had no idea what it meant. lol that must mean that NO ONE uses pictochat, then? lol i can't beleive i forgot we had wireless internet.... how embarrassing. i'm one of those computer geeks that suck with technology XD

anywho, thanks for the info ^.^

[White Lotus]

Man i haven't posted in here in like 6 months. I know i'm gonna get scolded for not searching for it but i'm ready to run out and Pre-Order it so here goes.

What are the differences between Diamond vs. Pearl? <I'm still smarting on getting FireRed over LeafGreen - I'm still missing Misdreavus> If it's just the main Poke on the cover then could someone give me a run down of thier vitals?

You know Type / Main Attributes / Main Moves - Sorry for asking such a dumb question.:embarrass

[Rubberbandman]

White Lotus hello! I havent seen you for a while

D/P has (like the rest of the pokemon version) no difference in the storyline but a differnece in the pokemon you can get.

I have 2 Questions, one for the DS in general and one for D/P

1. How many people are gonna get peral since most people I've talked to would like to get Diamond over Pearl so will Diamond be the big sellout and pearl collect dust on the shelves?

2. How does the Wi-Fi connection work since I've never used it... .-.

[Mrbadboy3]

eh just go to serebii.. here's a link ?http://serebii.net/diamondpearl/exclusives.shtml click on their pictures for description, type, moveset , etc.





My Question o-o
and where do i go if i want to battle with some one using friend codes...

[pokeant]

there are no emulators that work on all DS roms and certainly not D/P you must wait and there was already a thread on this in the D/P section

why isn't there an emulator that works like visualboy advance (works for any gba/gb/gbc roms)?

anyway, what i want to ask is (might be answered): how is trading done between diamond and pearl? I'm not familar with nds's features... if they need any other thing like link cable or wireless, please state tool. thanks...

Trading between DP is wireless.
...Yeah.

[Mrbadboy3]

well you need a router for gts. and can some one help me delete a move? i was training a ditto in a double battle it transformed to a machop and now it has the moves and lost transform ?! how the hell will i teach it transform again ???

[..:i n n e r_宇 宙:..]

Pfft.

Once you exit the battle, the Ditto will become normal and have transform again.

It's really useful for nothing except breeding and transform :P.

Hope I helped a bit, and caused you serious physical pain :D

[pokeant]

Trading between DP is wireless.
...Yeah.

no other accessories needed?

[Mudkip85]

no other accessories needed?

The only other thing i think you need is the Wi-Fi USB connector to plugin to your computer, if you want to trade upon far distances but otherwise i think that if you want to trade between two DS consoles next to eacother you dont need the Wi-Fi connector.

~Kipper~

[cardfreak]

I have one. How do I get my own Friend Code if It is blank? I am about to fight the E4 although.

[Mrbadboy3]

Pfft.

Once you exit the battle, the Ditto will become normal and have transform again.

It's really useful for nothing except breeding and transform :P.

dude it did'nt lose anything it still has the damn moves! and i left a LONG time ago

Try dropping the thing in the box/day care, or you're just making things up. :(

[Mrbadboy3]

Try dropping the thing in the box/day care, or you're just making things up. :(

I'm not i had to get another ditto or continue from my past save so what i did is i released it and got another one through Wi-Fi.... Lol now I just save after cloning an item

[Diaruga92]

Is it possible to battle online with the Japanese versions, when you're in Europe, for example?

[J]

Is it possible to battle online with the Japanese versions, when you're in Europe, for example?

Yes, as long as you have D/P and Wifi (with the friend codes).

[Paranoia]

What cant you battle random people over wifi? Do you have to have their friend code?

And also not everyone requires the Wifi USB stick, if you have a wireless router you can get onto nintendo wifi , the problem with my router when i first tried it was its software wasnt up to date, so update your router software if it doesn't work the first time.

Yeah, you can do that instead of using a WiFi USB :P
Problem is, some people don't have a wireless router, so they have to use a concentrated one.

I think you can trade with random people, except you have to go to a different place to do so.
Battling I'm not so sure. :(

Hah; I've been looking around here for awhile and decided to sign up because I need a little help.

How EXACTLY does the Pokemon Mansion work? According to Serebii.net it says you talk to the guy and then he leaves but....He's not leaving. (And I do want those Eevees >>; )

Pokemon Mansion? Isn't that FRLG or something? Or are you talking about that giant mansion in DP?

Hey there kids! Let's play games together!

Can you give me a full list of catchable pokemon on D/P?

No, names will be changed. They just havent released any more English names lately apart from the Chatot. Most of them will have an English name once the game comes out in April.

[Cornicapus]

I got a question

How do you trade between the older version to D/P using pal park? do you need a link cable or somethin?

[Paranoia]

Supposedly you just put your game in such as emeralad, into the gba slot on your DS and go to Pal Park, but i think it transfers so you loose those pokemon on your emerald version.

[J]

I got a question

How do you trade between the older version to D/P using pal park? do you need a link cable or somethin?

First, you can't trade DP<--->RSEFRLGE, you transfer, so you can't get the Pokemon back.

Second, no, just insert the GBA game into the slot. But you need the Nat. Dex to get to Pal Park.

Hey there kids! Let's play games together!

I've just got my Pokemon Mansion working. I'm not certain on this but I believe you may need National Dex before being allowed to get the Mansion's wild Pokemon to vary. Because I remember attempting the Mansion trick before the E4, to no effect. The guy never walked out of the room.

Now, after E4, the guy on the left walks out and the guy on the right tells you which Pokemon that is in the field behind the Mansion. Even then, they arent very common. I had Eevee yesterday and Usohachi today. You will usually find the Pichu/Mukkubird/Korotokku etc in the field.

[Mrbadboy3]

to add to my question.

is it the pokemon in ur party or ALL of your pokemon.

And do you keep your pokemon in the gba game?
(because if you lose your pokemon in your party you take one step into grass bzzzt! GLITCH!!)

(because if you lose your pokemon in your party you take one step into grass bzzzt! GLITCH!!)

Um, if I understand you right, then it is all of the Pokemon in your party. You can trade six Pokemon in a day, and while I haven't tested this feature yet, I think the prompt will stop you from trading all six at one time. Otherwise, hello there Mr. Freezing Man. How can I help you today?

And no, once you transfer the Pokemon into the game, they're stuck in the DS cartridge, and they will never go home again. You mean mean man, you.

Well, hope I helped a bit. :D

[~*Gardenia*~]

Hey is it hard to find Cherinbo and Munchlax on the Sweet Honey Trees? How long did it take you to get them? (If you did)

Well, there are pokemon that will most likely show up instead of them(I think Munchlax is pretty rare), gotta check up Serebii on what pokemon the trees have...

EDIT: All right, seems like Munchlax IS rare, and possibly is only near the power plant, and I would guess that Cherinbo is pretty rare, too. (I do not have D/P.)

[shaun0505]

I have a question. Is there any clue as to when it'll be realeased in Europe/UK?
I was looking earlier and I saw that emerald was released in 2004 arpil in the US and October in Europe? Are we expecting a smiliar wait?

the years may be a tad bit wrong but you get the gist.

[羨望]

Can you get munclax in the wild or you have to breed a snorflax,Just want to know so when i get my diamond copy.

Do you have to go to Mio City Cave IF you do thats why,

[pikachulover306]

I have decided to import diamond and then wait for the US realease of pearl and I wanted to know if I can trade pokemon from the Japan version over to the US version i think you can do it Wifi with the world wide trading but i'm not sure.

oh yeah now i remembered my other question it was is there actually a way to obtain sheimi or darkrai with out doing the glitch. i mean the events but how do u do them?

[Kiyoshikane]

oh yeah now i remembered my other question it was is there actually a way to obtain shemi or darkarai (don't kno if i spelled it right) with out doing the glitch. i mean the events but how do u do them?

Double posting is bad. :( Read the rules.

Aside from that, I don't really know what you mean. Do you mean Action Replay DS? If so, then you need:

1 DS / Lite
1 ARDS (Action Replay DS)
1 Pokemon Diamond / Pearl (JAP Version)
1 USB Cable (comes included)
1 Pokemon Diamond/Pearl XML file (GameSpot, or maybe at the code thread)

and

(optional) 1/2 Guy/Girls that will laugh at your Pokemon/Spelling skills/etc.

You need to have the XML file into your ARDS after setting up all the yada yada, and transfer it to your ARDS. Instructions should be in your manual, which I advise to read at all times.

Then, just do the instructions in the AR, and go play...

... go in the PokeMart, talk to the green guy, do whatever event you want to do (you have to beat the Elite 4 at least, for Darkrai you have to cure the boy as well) and bravo, you got the Pokemon.

Hope I helped, and I'll answer the other question while I'm at it:

Yes, you can trade your Pokemon Diamond/Pearl US and JP, because they are region-free, however, you need two DS's.

World Trading Center (I forget the name) is for global trading, not for people to trade to themselves, without running the risk of the Pokemon being taken :(

Anyways, hope I helped you with your questions, and toodle-oo~

Do you have to get the National Dex to catch Eevee at the Pokemon Mansion? Also, from another website, it says that Mizuki gives you an Eevee. This site has hardly ever been wrong, so could someone tell me if this is before or after you recieve the National Dex. One last thing, do you have to have the 6th badge to go to Iron (Steel) Island. Please help

Can you get munclax in the wild or you have to breed a snorflax,Just want to know so when i get my diamond copy.
Edit:stupid me din't see the Xylitol and Vulpixpal91 post,Too bad that munclax is rare darn:<

I'm pretty sure you need the National Dex. What I found was that before the E4, the Pokemon Mansion didnt seem to work. After becoming Champion and receiving National Dex, I found that the Mansion was working and from then on I have been receiving different Pokemon each day.

Also with the free Eevee, you may find that you are only given one after the E4 and in Yosuga City.

[Mrbadboy3]

it is one but who cares just Breed eevee for quicker results...

Thanks !!**Alex**!!. You helped alot. I thought you would prbably have to either get the National Dex or beat the e4.
lol thank you for this smarter insight.

Well, you need the national dex anyways for Pal Park which would be the only way to get an Eevee besides these methods. Plus, breeding isn't always the right answer if you're looking for pokemon to help you beat the E4

A question about the Areseus plates, do they also work on other Pokemon as their effects are just raising whatever type the plates they support.

[Chibaymega12]

Hey, question 1: do you have to have the japanese version of lg/fr to use just the pokemon appearance thing, not the pal park thing. Question 2: How do you tell when a friendship evloution pokemon is about to evolve

A question about the Areseus plates, do they also work on other Pokemon as their effects are just raising whatever type the plates they support.
They do have additional effects on other pokemon like raising their powers depending on the type

[Ayano Katagiri]

Question 2: How do you tell when a friendship evloution pokemon is about to evolve

Use your Poketchi, its the 6th menu where you can click on your Pokemon and see their happiness. Once it reaches two big hearts, then the pokemon is ready for evolution.

No, you dont get to choose his/her name. That is the preset original one.

When you transfer Pokemon via Pal Park and level them up in D/P, will they naturally learn D/P moves as if they were caught in D/P? or still only 3rd gen moves? & on that note, if you went to a move tutor, would you see D/P moves there as if it was levelled up there also, or not?

Is there a list of which Pokémon are exclusive to Pearl, and which to Diamond? I really need to know this but can't find it anywhere :( would really appreciate it if someone knew an answer.

Keep the pokemon in your party, give it vitamins {Calcium, Carbos}, don't let it faint in battle and have the pokemon gain levels.

You can try putting Soothe Bell on it and walking around, or gain levels and I believe feeding it some specific berries might help as well.

hey, im waiting for the game to be released in australia but id like to know if, when u beat E4 and such do u ever leave sinnoh to other lands such as previous versions did?

also im looking forward to being able to battle and trade over the net so does anybody here use it and is it working well?

That only happens in G/S/C when you go back to Kanto. In D/P you unlock the north eastern island after the E4

Heres a simple one ... are the DS cartirides colored diamond-ish and pearl-ish like the other games?

[Kiyoshikane]

Heres a simple one ... are the DS cartirides colored diamond-ish and pearl-ish like the other games?

Japanese : No.

They do variate from the usual DS cartridges by adding a black border with the Nintendo DS game cartridge (located on the top of usual DS cartridges) instead of the usual white. Nothing else, because it's probably too time-consuming to make pearl/diamond cartridges, especially when you have to make them very small :(

English : I DUNNO. >.<

How exactly does the Poketore work?? Mine keeps telling me that it isnt the right place/time to use it.

[Ratiasu-kun]

Ill have a guess... are you in tall grass or caves, etc.? thats all I can think of :/

[Ayano Katagiri]

Even in normal grass it doesnt work... no idea why though. XD

[kohei]

Even in normal grass it doesnt work... no idea why though. XDAre you on your bike? Since you gotta be walking to use the Poketore.

Also, you need to charge it (by walking 50 steps... or was it a 100?) once after every use.

[Reg teh Yoshi]

It's 50 steps.

!!**Alex**!!, you must be off your Bike in order for it to work. It can only be used in Tall Grass to (Normal Grass, not the real tall grass). And somtimes the Poketore won't find any pokemon, if so then just walk 50 Steps and try again.

Also, as an added information bonus, if while you're using it A tile of grass glows diffrent colors: GET YOUR REPEL OUT AND DASH TOWARDS IT cuz you just got yourself A Shiny.

Wow, so you can get shinies with the poketore? If you get in a battle before you reach it, does it go away? Will you still fight it if you have a repel on, wouldn't it repel the shiny too? =^_^= That's awesome!! Maybe I'll FINALLY find a shiny in D/P.

It goes away when you get into another battle, that's why I mentioned A Repel. Also, the Poketore is also meant to garuntee A Pokemon battle, so even with the repel it'll still appear. This is also how I came across A Shiny Kirlia (score!)

p o k e m o n, search around the DP Discussion board, Your code should be there.

[White Lotus]

Haven't gotten the game yet so this is a simple one i can't look up myself. When a poke has Misuse as an ability does it mean it can hold an item but it doesn't work or it can't hold an item at all.

Example...

Mimiroppu : Toxic/Burn Orb
Timid <+Spd / -Att>
'Misuse' - <Cannot use Held Items>
* Heal Wish
* Sneak
* Agility
* Baton Pass

Would this mean my poke wouldn't get the Burn/Toxic from the item and then he could switch it <SNEAK> to the other poke and he would get the status effect? Or can he not equip an item at all?

Or can he not equip an item at all?Mimirop can hold the item, but it won't take effect, thus allowing you to sneak the item onto the opponent safely.

But not all item effects can be negated with Misuse, like the Macho Brace, Kuroi Tekkyuu etc

Although this is the most used Mimilop tactic (I've fought at least 2 people with this build... maybe more), it's unique to Mimilop, and is the most effective IMO.

For the glowy effect on the Pokétore, how long does the shininess last?

[Chibaymega12]

You know how if you have a fr/lg/r/s/e cartridge in your game and you go to a certain place and the pokemon is there i.e. With lg cartridge in the game, you can find a magby in hard mountain. Can you do that with an english cartridge and a japanese pearl game??

I didn't try it out myself, but it's been said not to work.
So you need an English game if you want to transfer the Pokémon from an English cartridge.

[Dsaerno]

Do the Japanese Pokemon games come in different colored cartridges like the English ones do? If so, are the DS game cards light blue and pink for Diamond and Pearl?

to answer my own question and any one else who might be wondering, it does work. I tried it, and i caught my self a magby!!

ok, ive got another question, ive been trying to evolve rhydon into dosiadon, ive given him the defence thing (red blocky thing) and he doesnt evolve, ive even level him up with a rare candy and he still wont evolve, please help

EDIT: ok, i figured out from serebii, you gotta trade

also, ive said it before, ill say it again, this thread is SOOO boring

[Tormentedsoul14]

what zone is exeggute in ive spent over 50k in the binoculars.

EDIT:English carts work to see stuff like emerald to see pineco. Just pal park wont work with english carts only jap carts at the moment.

[fatpappa911]

i dont know what to get what is the diffrence

[Ratiasu-kun]

As with all games, there are certain Pokémon (http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/exclusives.shtml) exclusive to either one or the other. Another difference is that in Diamond, you get Dialga, and in Pearl, you get Palkia. Idk about any other differences tho...

[kohei]

what zone is exeggute in ive spent over 50k in the binoculars.Since it's a "change-everyday" Pokemon in the Safari Zone, it doesn't come out all the time.

So be sure to check the Safari Zone everyday, because you may just be lucky on a particular day.

[Shiny Umbreon]

Two questions:
1-Can I transfer Pokémon from my English LG to a Japanese D/P?
2-Can I trade Pokémon from a Japanese D/P to an English D/P?

[fatpappa911]

i know the difrence but which is the best one to get and what would be a good starter

[Chibaymega12]

Two questions:
1-Can I transfer Pokémon from my English LG to a Japanese D/P?
2-Can I trade Pokémon from a Japanese D/P to an English D/P?

I'll answer your questions :D

1- You cannot transfer pokemon, but you can get the pokemon that require a cartridge to be inserted to be seen regardless

2- No

Now, im adressing this to both of the questions, a jp game cannot read an english game when you actually have to pick which pokemon you want in vice versa

EDIT: First post on page 10 (not that amazing)

[Ratiasu-kun]

Well, on the list that I showed you, depending on which Pokémon you like more, you should choose the version with those Pokémon! Also, the starters are pretty evenly matched (or they say they are ;D)and therefore are very equal. You probably wont be using much of them late-game anyway! :3

[fatpappa911]

thankx for the help but isnt like the other versions where choosing the grass starter is easy fire is hard and water is moderat

[Tormentedsoul14]

Since it's a "change-everyday" Pokemon in the Safari Zone, it doesn't come out all the time.

What are the other pokemon that are 'change-everyday'?

[Shiny Umbreon]

How does PorygonZ's abiltiy "Adaptive" work? It supposedly gives you an extra damage if using a move with the same type as it. (Sounds like STAB) But how much does it raise?

[slash106]

Ya im just asking if there are any important clues I should learn before I go off and buy dimond or perl like any stupid glitches I should hear about anything about the pokemon and im a noob to this website so ya Im still learning about all the stuff here so plz answer me back incase there is a down side to dimond and pearl.

SEE YA!!!!!!! slash106

You shouldn't mini-mod either, Shiny Umbreon.

Adaptitive boosts any move that matches PorygonZ's type by 50%. So with Adaptive and STAB, PorygonZ's Normal attacks are doubled in power.

Well, in the JAP version, there were glitches galore! Like being able to get Sheimi, Areuseus, and Darkrai all in the original game. But Im pretty sure by the time the game is Americanized, theyll have removed all that by then. Even JAP versions you buy now will probably have glitches removed...

Just some more questions about that.

1-How is Silk Scarf's bonus applied. Is it added, too? (210%) Or it works by multiplying x1.1 ?
Correct me if the bonus isn't 10%.

2-How much does the Concentration Band raises physical moves' power? How it works together with STAB? (Again, multiplying or adding?)

Since when can you get Areuseus? Even if you use the E4 glitch its impossible without cheats since you have to go above tengan mountain. Also the glitches are already removed from the jap games I preordered diamond and that had the glitches bought pearl in november and glitches were removed.

Ya im just asking if there are any important clues I should learn before I go off and buy dimond or perl like any stupid glitches I should hear about anything about the pokemon


There arent really glitches that you should worry about really. As long as you know what you are doing if you do decide to use the E4 glitch (got stuck in black 3 times, had to restart each time).

About the pokemon I would suggest getting Murkrow or Misdrevous depending on your version Sphinx (electric looking dog) is a good one to catch early in the game also. Don't worry about catching Buizel he sucks later in game. As for starters go for the grass one, he is the best overall. Penguin is to slow to hit anything, Fire monkey is good for being one of the three fire people you can get. Enough with my splurge.

[White Lotus]

Poison Spikes works just like regular Spikes correct. The only difference is the that <Steel> is immune instead of <Flying>.

That means the rest is set damage so all those 1/2 damage resistances to <Poison> doesn't matter right?
