  • Go to Internet settings in the DS options
  • Change the Primary DNS to this DNS: 088.191.118.153 and Save
  • Go to GTS, deposit the pokemon you want checked and this message should appear saying 13266 (this means the pokemon's data has been sent to this website)
  • Click on the pokemon to find out all the info

Didn't know where this goes, so if it need to be moved, please do so!!
Ok, I want to learn how to GTS hack check, but am having problems, just getting it set up, after I put in the primary DNS #'s it gives me an "invalid" message after I click the save settings button??
Any help will do!!
I've merged it into Quick Questions since your issue isn't solved yet, but just a warning, in your previous thread, Sydian said to post it in the help threads which is what you should've done. Any further questions belong here, kay?

So I just beat the E4, N and Ghetsis. I've traversed into the post-story, and I'm finding that may of the NPC trainers have Pokemon level 65 and over.

My party is in the 50-56 range, so how in the hell am I supposed to compete with these trainers without grinding on wild Pokemon? If I'm not missing something here to train my Pokemon to a competitive level, then the developers kind of screwed up, considering every guide I have read says my Pokemon should be at least level 56 by this point. What's the deal?

I guess because they want it to be a "challenge" to you, as in, you can get through with your Pokemon at 56 but it'll be a struggle. Your best bet is to train to about 65 (wild Audino grinding, they're at a high level and use Heal Pulse + Simple Beam a lot so you get lots of exp post-game without worrying about whether they'll beat you or not) where you should safely be able to beat most trainers you face.

Where can I find these Audinos, by chance?

Go to any route with grass post-game (for the stronger Audino), run up and down until grass shakes, and boom there's Audino :)

(watch for other rare ones though, like other ones that only appear in the shaking grass too :x)

Hey i've asked this question in CBC quick questions 3 days ago and no answer so i'm reposting it here ^_^

If doing a double battle with a pokemon with the ability Plus and a pokemon with the ability Minus on the same team, will they get the Sp.Atk boost?

Plus: When battling with Plus or Minus, Special Attack becomes 1.5 times greater.

Minus: When battling with Plus or Minus, Special Attack becomes 1.5 times greater.

Yes. Plus now also raises the user's Special Attack stat by 50% when it enters a double or triple battle with a Pokémon that has Plus or Minus.

is there any way yu can not catch Zekrom?? im at N's castle, and i REALLY dont wanna catch it...

Have a full team and full PC boxes of 720 Pokemon total. IMO, it's not worth it because you have to spend a lot of money to get the Poke Balls necessary to catch that many Pokemon. You can just catch it and not use it.
