  • Another question...

    Do PokeBall Seals return in Black and White? The ones that were featured in DPPt which, I heard, were very annoying in that they couldn't be deposited into the PC while on a PokeBall, but were still a nice feature...

    I haven't heard any mention of them so far, and I fear they might have been axed due to the inability to migrate items from Generation IV to Generation V...

    Thanks for the help in advance!

  • That's interesting...I would assume one could rack up a lot of experience by constant rebattling...?

    Nope, at least in my experience you just exit the battle with no exp gained, and it's still standing where it was. (The Victini event, however... provided a *little* xp for my hungry croc :x)

    What do I do in the town with the airplanes? :s I'm here everyday, I swear. This thread is my new home.

    Pretty certain that you have figured this out, but you're supposed to go north out of the town to the Tower of Heaven, where the gym leader stands. Ring the bell and you're good to go, she'll return. Also, the move relearner and what I assume is the move deleter is in the house east of the Pokécenter, so it might be worth checking out if you want to get that "Ball of Fire" attack on Victini or Megahorn on Daikenki, idk.

    Ugh...I was really hoping they'd get revamped (the PC aspect, primarily) for Generation V, even with more new Seals being introduced...! I don't even have Platinum yet and I loved the feature! *sigh* Another BW con for me... :( Thanks for the info, though. Maybe Gray Version will change things...?

    Darn it...I don't really see the point that it's available to be rebattled yet impedes the player's progress without any beneficial EXP gains...
    The only plus I can derive from this is that new, inexperienced players can't accidentally 'KO the legendary Pokemon for it to become lost forever' anymore... Not that I would've done that anyway, though, and I doubt a high number of inexperienced players did/would do that on their first playthroughs... Would bonus EXP be so hard to add for experienced players? :\ *sighs again* Thanks for the info as well, though.

    Doesn't really seem like you've made it a discussion, so merged with in-game help/translations for suggestions.

  • 1. Thunder Wave is in Raimon City Pokemart for 10,000. Wind Bolt isn't coming up on the 'find' bar, so maybe you have the name wrong. If you meant Wild Bolt, it's in Victory Road.

    2. I remember getting it in the forest? Or close to it. Sorry this is vague.

    3. Serebii says it can...which is the craziest thing ever.

    4. Don't know that one, I'm afraid. :(

    Also, Brick Break is apparently in Sekka City, where I am right now. Where exactly is it? Thanks in advance!

  • Just A Couple Of B/W Q's??

    Ok, if you can't trade between games, meaning between black and HG or white and Platinum, how are you supposed to get an Eigakan Celebi or any of the crown beast to the game to get the other pokes that are on it??

    Even so, this thread covers any questions relating to obtaining Pokemon in-game, too. Trading comes under this, unless you're asking for something in a trade, which goes in the wifi section.

    Okay, if anyone could help me out with the Global Link, that would be very helpful.

    I was just trying to get on it so I could get a new background for my C-Gear, and I am having some troubles.

    So I went to the "Game Sync" thing and said "Yes" to everything it said. I later than put in my Kibago to "go to bed". It then told me a code. I assumed it was a code to register yourself on the Global Link website, so I went to it, and near the bottom where it says "------ID---" and then shows a bar for me to type something in on. So I typed in my code and birthday and it showed a red exclamation point some writing. I tried again, same thing. I tried a few things, and it won't do anything. Am I doing something wrong? Please tell me how to get onto this website.. thank you.

  • How do I change my c-gear/pokedex skin? I clicked on the pokeball on the gl website and chose which ones I want and clicked on the orange button thing which i assume is save or something. Now what?

  • @Sydian Thanks for the Thunder Wave and the Big Root. I think i actually picked up Big root i think. In Yagaruma forest.
    and i mean the Electric move with 90 power which recoils a bit.


    Still, how can i tell if my shikijika has herbivore?

    Anyone know if you can headbutt trees in black and white? And if you can, what do these trees look like?

    It was an unique feature to Pokémon Silver, Gold, SS and HGSS, so no, you can't headbutt trees in B/W.

    Does anyone know what we could do after the Elite Four? I'm at the moment looking and catching legendaries. Also, when you go over the Wonderbridge (English translation patch), the teleport-black-n inja-dudes shows up and Griseous Orb. What purpose might they have?

    I guess you'll have to wait for it to be in sunny weather and see does it speed increase. that or take a picture of it and post it.

    Since you can't bring over items with the Pokeshifter, there is no way to Giratina's origin form, so they put this in.

    Its ability will be written as そうしょく, otherwise it's got Chlorophyll if it's written ようりょくそ.

    When you check the info on your pokemon, go to the second page. It will be in the rectangle in the lower part of the top screen, right next to the word とくせい.
