Quick Questions

Do you need help with the games? Ask here! I'm sure most of you can help each other out as you play through the games. This thread is also for any questions relating to the Dream World, so ask your questions here instead of making a thread in the actual forum. If you want, you are allowed to repost your questions from the last thread.

As a note, if you want to know how well a Pokemon fares in battle, how to make a Pokemon the best it can be, or how to design a nice team, then that best fits in In-Game Team Help's Team Questions.

Is any backtracking required prior to the Elite Four?

[Zerrah.]

What are the breeding mechanics for passing on Dream World abilities?

Also, I heard that EV training has changed, can anyone fill me in?

A bit.

Spoiler:

You'll have to return to the Resort Desert and access the Ancient Castle sometime before the eighth gym.

Female Pokémon with hidden abilities have a 40% chance of passing on the hidden ability to their offspring.

It hasn't.

Autumn, following the trend from Spring in September.

In the options menu, at the bottom, there is a check box. What does it do?

It lets you register that feature.
You can access it by pressing Y. Multiple things can be registered :D

The X mark lets you exit the entire menu without having to press B several times.

Does anyone know what the third Pokemon game is going to be? I would image it would be something like silver or grey.

[Sydian]

^ No one knows, but Silver has been made, so it won't be that.

Are Black/White getting released a day early or something? Somebody mentioned getting Black tomorrow (which is the 5th) and it seems like they got released early in Europe. I'm really confused. :(

Nope, Europe is getting the games at the 4th of March while USA gets them the 6th.

[Fushigidane-Chan]

That said, a lot of people have gotten early copies.

We haven't heard a whimper about them at all, so no one knows about the third game yet, but it is certain to happen.

[tajio]

Some people that pre-ordered the games got them like a day or two early (Including me!)

Adding to what the others said, speculate on the third game here :)

iS THERE A gts in pokemon Black and white?

[Kenshin5]

GTS is exclusive to Fourth Generation games. Now we have Pokemon Global Link as a replacement to GTS, just like Pokeshifter is a replacement too Pal Park.

[Queen of Darkness]

How can you transfer pokemon from the dream world back to your game?

Not true.

The GTS is no longer an individual location, but all its options can still be accessed through ordinary Pokemon Centers.

Yeah, you can. Are you sure you're speaking to the correct receptionist / going with the correct options?

[Kaori]

CommunityGamer, if you aren't sure, saying so won't help either.

Merged with our Help thread where I'm positive someone will be able to help you. :]
