Finding rustling grass, or any of the other special tiles, is random. So you're just going to have to be patient and keep searching. So far, there's no secret to finding the rustling grass (except for having your first Badge).

Cripes, I was beaten horribly.

erm, how do you encounter shaking grass?
I know what it does but how do you find them?
'Cause I'm searching for Audinos to grind on. :P

To amend to this, is there anything visible that shows up? I mean, do you just hear the grass rustle or is there a visible sign as well? I've already ran into an Audino but I really wasn't paying attention at all and so I didn't see anything. :<

The grass actually looks like its rustling. Like half of it is standing up and dancing around. It is noticeable if you look for it, so you don't need to listen for the noise. Just watch the grass for any tiles that seem to "dance". I find it to be easily seen.

Before you link to a user-created, potentially factually-inaccurate wiki, I should say that I don't believe that's true. I've transferred a Suicune, Entei and Raikou via the PokéShifter in the Japanese games and it certainly didn't jeopardise my ability to find Zoroark.
Yikes, sorry about that, but I could have sworn I also heard that on Serebii, which is a bit more credible than a Wiki.

I'm still a bit confused, but am I able to download the Victini Event with a wireless WPA internet and a DSi? Doesn't seem like it's working for me D:

i want to no the most eefficent way to train my pokemon without them losing any points or w/e

i kind of no how ev's work, but i am not quite sure
but if i traded pokemon with a friend and we traded back, i would get boosted xp, but how would that affect the pokemons stats? could i stilll use him in duels, battles, wifi battles, etc...? and how can i raise the strongest pokemon
please try and explain to me in detail, thanks so much

JAde

thats not how it works traded pokemons only get boosted exp if they have a different trainer Id then your own trading to a friend and back does nothing for exp boost

OK... maybe this is in the wrong place, but I've read that the Australian version is region free. I'd LIKE to get the American version, but does anyone know if it's region free or not?

EDIT: I have a Japanese DSi

If you breed male starters with a different Pokémon the eggs will turn out to be the different Pokémon (the one hatching is the same one as the female). You'll need to find someone who trades you a Ditto...

Someone please tell me that it isn't true that you can't rebattle Gym Leaders and the Elite Four. D:

Also, what does the woman in the trailer on Route 5 want to buy from you?
