Hey
I have 1000 steps on my pokewalker and I still can't get 3 !!! is it rare to get it, i'm looking for the flying Pikachu

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

You need a minimum of 10000 steps for Flying Pikachu, even then it is still very rare.

yea I have more steps then 10000

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

Well you missed out a zero and that's still 2% chance of finding one.

whats the best way to raise money on heartgold, pre Ho-oh, once all trainers have been defeated?

 

[Fire Wolf]

fishyfins, elite 4 would be your best bet, but since it isn't pre-Ho-Oh in HG, and since all trainers have been defeated, I guess having 3-5 pokemon with Pickup in your team would help, as you can sell the items they pick up.

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

If you haven't beat the Kimono Sisters(probably have) you should go to them with an Amulet coin since they'll each give like 9000(more or less) a battle and with 5 of them that will be 45k right there.

 

[rocky505]

another way would be amulet coins while vsing a rich kid, i think thats their titles :P

VS seeker and rich kids arent in HGSS.

I recall there may be a guy in the Lighthouse you can rematch (a gentleman Alfred) - those trainers tend to carry some $$$. Checking up, you can call him as often as you want on tuesdays between 10am-8pm.

heya hows it goin peoples...

ok i searched the forums and found no discussions on this subject.
how does the berry pot actually work?
now i tried planting berrys and adjusting the DS callendar... no beans (i mean berries)... next i tried adjusting just the clock... nothing.

so what clock is it running off of?
i just want a heap of stirus and leppa berries it would be nice to heal my pokebuddies up and keep em running for those long shiny hunts.

so my question is this, how do you manipulate the berry pots?

Merged with the Help thread in case people have other suggestions. Anyways, the things with berries is that you can't change time with them - so much as a small adjustment kills them all and means you can't grow them for a day (or two). They were aware of people trying to speed up the berry growth, I suppose. =P You'll just have to grow them the old-fashioned way without cheating. =P

just tried this. set my DS clock to tomorrow (tuesday of course), and ive battled him several times now. with amulet coin, im getting about 14k a battle. this method works like a charm. thanks a lot ^^

I've got a growlithe of lv 35. It already has Flamethrower. Should I evolve it or should I let it learn Heat Wave or Flare Blitz first. Even though it won't learn extremespeed as an arcenine then.

Make it learn heat wave/flare blitz.....then evolve it ..use the move relearner to teach arcanine ES....hope that helped

Well my thread on it got locked before I could reply to someone elses reply....so i'll ask here.

In the safari zone, where is the meadow? I have looked around for ages and there isn't any area which looks like the meadow pic someone posted, and no matter which section i go in, I cant seem to find jigglypuff.

yeah it helped. I didn't know it could learn those moves through the move relearner. I thought it only learned the starting moves.

When u reach the safari zone for the first time,the game randomly sets up the six areas...i guess u didn't get meadows ...to get that u have to complete boaba's second challenge and then customize the area to get meadows

what are those little red exclimation points on the pokegear map for? there only on certian routes in johto and kanto. why?

They're places you should visit. Usually its because a trainer on that route has challenged you to a rematch, but sometimes they just want to give you something. Visit the route, speak to people and find out! ~♪

They also show where swarms are located.

Just got HeartGold yesterday, and there are a lot of questions I could ask, but I will likely figure out most of them on my own. I do want to ask this one though. Is there an easier way to get some of my Pokémon from my Diamond version to HeartGold than just trading using a second DS? For example, I have the Pikachu-Colored Pichu in my Diamond, and eventually I would like to get it to HeartGold to unlock the event.
