Help Thread

If you need help in Pokemon Shiny Gold, feel free to post a question and someone hopefully have an answer. This is not the place to report Bugs. Zel, if you want this gone send me a message and I'll shut It down.


Notice: No discussing or asking questions related to Jirachi. Orders From Zel.


Notice: You MUST put your answers in spoiler tags.

[spoiler*]remove *[/spoiler*]

Starter Spoilers

Spoiler:

Mudkip: Union cave, first floor, walking or surfing.

Charmander: Goldenrod City Game Corner, 2100 coins.

Treecko: Go to the hole in the rails in National Park. You will see two paths. Go to the rigth, near the East door. You will see a path between the trees. Enter and beat the trainer.

Squirtle: In New Bark Town, surf in the little part of the water route. If you go to the next route, you won't find it.

Torchic: Go to Lavander Town and to the South. You will see another path between the trees which leads to a cave with a guy who gives you an egg. In that cave, you will find wild Torchics. The egg has a random baby poke.

Bulbasaur: Go to the grass zone (Area 3) in the Safari Zone. It's wild there.

Legends and Rares Spoilers

Spoiler:

Ho-oh: Beat the Rocket leader in the Radio Tower and the real director wil give you a Rainbow Wing. Now go to Tin Tower in Ecutreak City. It's in the top floor, in level 40, and has Sacred Ash equipped.

Celebi: Get the GS Ball in your trip to Kanto. Beat L.T Surge (Vermillion) and Sabrina (Saffron). Now call Prof Elm from a Phone Booth and go to Vermillion to take the ship to Johto. Talk to Prof Elm in New Bark, and then go to Azalea Town and talk to Kurt. Walk a little, and he will give you back the GS Ball. Now go to the Ilex Forest. It's in level 30.

Raikou, Suicune, Entei: Go to Burned Tower in Ecutreak and fall on the basement floor from a hole. When they have awakened, they will be around all Johto. It's just luck.

Lapras: Can be found in the Union Cave. Not as a wild Pokémon you could encouter, but as a Lapras-sprite on the water.
Enter the Cave from the south. Go left where you can Surf on the water. Take the stairs to get 1 floor lower. Surf to the right and get to another stairs to get 1 floor lower. Get to the water nearby and Surf on it. Keep going south and you'll see the Lapras.

Bagon: Game Corner Prize

Jirachi: No discussing or asking a question related to Jirachi. Orders From Zel.

Hey, you made it!
Good, this will help A LOT of people who need help.
And Lasthand, how about making people put there answers in spoilers, just in case someone doesn't want to see the answer to something.

Spoiler:

Like if someone said where Jirachi was, etc...

[rups284]

I'm going to be a funny guy and ask how the Jirachi "egg" is obtained since i'm a noob?

[Giovanni Boss]

Well, i know where to get Treecko, Mudkip, Bulbasaur, Charmander and kind of know where to get Squirtle.

Spoiler:

Sorry, this was just a test. Never used spoilers. By the way, may I say where to get them or it's better wait until Zel has aproved this thread?

I wanted to ask something: is it possible to find Torchic and/or Beldum until now?
Please don't say where, if you have already seen them.
And I wanted to ask another thing: I want to find a voice of purity, do you think there's any pokémon with that voice? Maybe an item?

About Beldum... I think that there is no way yet.

(Told you this was a good idea, zel)

[Giovanni Boss]

About the egg you told, it wasn't a pichu for me. xD
And I ask again about the voice of purity: Who/what do you think has a voice of purity and can sing?

Spoiler:

Read Jirachi's Sapphire version dex description and u'll understand why I'm asking this. Zel likes to use these information in SG, just look at Aggron's description, it fits with our encounter with him.

Not me. I guess Jirachi will never see me *starts FAKE crying*. Of course, it IS just a description.

[Giovanni Boss]

About Mudkip:

Spoiler:

Not only on the first floor. I found mine while I was seeing Lapras, surfing on the third - I guess - floor.

Spoiler:

you have to go to the bottem cut tree talk to it twice and koga comes. he will get your pokemon back

[/Circa]

Alright, when you finish the eight gym, who is the legendary Dragon Pokemon?
I've tried Dragonite, so i'm guessing it's Kingdra..

You mean the description near the big rock in Dragon's Den?
There's nothing to it.. It's just something Zel will release next Beta or so..

[Dragoon]

i bet it's RAYQUAZA it's legendary and a dragon anyone agree with me?

[poring24]

I've just patched beta 5, but when I start the game it wouldn't load my B4 save, is there a way to play b5 with the b4's save?

[/Circa]

Sometimes it works, but there are more glitches then before.
It would be better to start from the beginning, who knows what you'll find?

Spoiler:

You need to use a Sun Stone on Poliwhirl, if I remember

Dont forget this thread's intention is just to make gameplay questions and help people with their gameplay questions. Avoid guessing posts. Thanks.

[Giovanni Boss]

By the way, in Beta 5 X,

Spoiler:

my Ho-oh didn't come with Sacred Ash. Not that I intended to use it, anyway. Does it is supposed to come ALWAYS with the item?

Not that I know. Mine didn't came with the Sacred Ash either, so probably not..

But now that you mention it;
Immediately after I caught Ho-oh, I found a Master Ball. It just came out of nowhere...

> ZORA caught Ho-oh! ... > Pokédex description ... > *returning to the rooftop* .. ZORA found a Master Ball!

Weird, huh?
Is it a glitch, orrrrr....? 0_o

[Went]

Ok, this is not the thread to post bugs, I ask you to go to the main thread.
My Ho-oh had sacred ash, and it's supposed to, I don't know why yours don't.
And the masterball thing is a bug. O.o Maybe it's the ROM. Do you have a previous savestate? Can anyone else confirm this?

Nah, I don't have a previous savestate.

Well, I tried to achieve the same thing again ('cause I saved the game at another slot right before Ho-oh, thanks to the VisualBoy) and it even works when you Run away from battle.

Here you can see the screen where Ho-oh will disappear afterwards.
Notice this is right before it flashes black (or actually while it flashes black) and where you'll be standing on the rooftop.
You won't be able to see the full text though, like: "Obtained a Master Ball".




Well, I'll post this in the Main thread..

[MiGuEl12346]

hown can i get lapras? & where is it?
