I remember hearing that you can't trade/transfer items from Heartgold/Soulsilver to Black or White.

Is this true? If not how would I do this?

I want the items to help with EV training but getting enough battle points is taking a while.

Nope, nothing from any past generations. Only way to do it is through hacking/ARing/etc.

B/W does provide a lot of items for trainers though, so they should be good enough tbh.

Ah that sucks, will have to keep on with the battle tower before I can start EV training my Pokemon, EV training is far too tedious without the Power anklets/bracelets etc

The Grip Claw is an item, so no. Baton Pass only passes stat changes. You can put the Grip Claw on the Pokemon you will be Baton Passing to, however.

Is rebattling possible in B/W?

Not most trainers, but you can find trainers every day in the Nimbassa City stadiums, you can battle trainers on the Ferris Wheel also in Nimbassa City, in Opelucid city there is a house in which you can do a Triple/Rotation battle every day, and in Pokemon Black there will be trainers that you can battle in Black City. Also, you can rebattle the Elite Four as much as you want and battle the rich boy in the Undella Town villa every day.

Will the Japan disaster have any effect on when the B-W events (Mello, Keldo, Genosect) be released in Japan-then-beyond ?

It might, but it would probably be minimal or not at all. I'm only saying this because it did push back the release of the Global Link, but no one can no for sure. It probably wont though.

So recently I got into online battleling and found my main problem was I didn't have any EVs on any of my Pokemon. I've been killing several of the mentioned EV areas and I notice no change in stats! ): If anyone can PM and let me know I'd truly appreciate it!

Supposedly all Pokemon on the GTS in B/W are legit right? I just got a shiny Giratina lvl 33 in an Ultra Ball...and its from Sinnoh. Call me crazy, there's no place to get a lvl 33 Giratina there...

There is, an event Arceus was given out over wifi iirc anyway, this Arceus let's you go to the Sinjoh ruins, (Which is ruins between Sinnoh and Johto) with the Arceus in your party, you can choose to acquire one of the Sinnoh trio at Level 1 (Giratina, Dialga, Palkia)

Note : It was given out during HG/SS

I read there's a dig tm on the desert road and a dream eater tm in the dream yard.
and a tm in the cold storage(can't remember which one). I've been all over the desert including the resort and all over the cold storage including team plasma's hiding place. where are those blasted tms? and how do I get the one in the dream yard, I accidentally evolved my munna too soon for a hypnosis/dream eater combo

Its probably not legit.. Also, the egg event was in Johto, not Sinnoh.

Dig is indeed in the Desert on Route 4. Go on the road that leads toward the Desert Resort and enter the first house there. Talk to the people and you should get the TM. Dream Eater can be found after the main storyline is finished, and it is in the Dream Yard Underground. In the Cold Storage, you can find a TM (Scald) in the main area and after the main story you can find a sage there and he will give you Hone Claws. Hope that helps :D

EDIT: Sorry...didn't see the above post.
So then B/W GTS isn't safe...

nope, Ive gotten hacks too. reshiram that knew fusion bolt. a little skeptical.

Yeah, it's probably extremely hard to monitor hacks on risky things like the GTS. To get rare things it is probably safer to check out the trade fourms for RNG'd or Soft Reset legendaries.

You have to get the Pal Pad first, I believe.

How do you get to Anville Town?
