    yes, you need to catch/beat it.
    and secondly, you need to make sure that you have beaten the kimono girls before you go to battle lugia. ;)

    EDIT: i was ninja-d...

    Yep that's right.
    Go to Ecruteak, beat Kimono girls and then go to location of your legend

    *Adds it to FAQ*

    What Hm's do you need for the cave?
    Which cave is it? since there are 4 of them, unless they changed it this time...

    urhm i think it's pretty strict.... but if you just follow the game you will get it.i wouldn't be worrying about which gym you're up to when you get it. ;)

  • I need some help on two matters.

    One: Atm i have Typhlosion, Ampharos, Quagsire, Pidgeot and Scizor (I love this guy so i cheated for him). I don't know what to do with my Dragonair, Red Gyrados and Pupitar though.

    Two: I haven't played this series in years so i can't remember what i have to do after Lance flies off after you catch/beat the Red Gyrados.

    One: Train the Pupitar as your #6.

    Two: Go to that little house above the Pokecenter in Mahogany (It has a tree with an antenna next to it.) Epicness will ensue :D

    just to let you guys know that you can get the red gyarados just after morty. just go to the red gyarados after morty and noone blocks your way- so you just surf to the middle of the lake and battle it. from there you can do the team rocket base part, then go back to do the fifth and sixth gyms.

    EV reducing berries?/ Early headbutt and pickup?

    Do these two games have EV reducing berries?

    Where is the earliest to get a pokemon that can learn Headbutt by leveling (even if I have to evolve it, but not by trading with another game) instead of by TM?

    Where is the earliest (without trading with another game) to get a pokemon with pickup?

    Pretty sure it's Slowpoke, at level 25.

    I guess Meowth, Phanpy (but I only found Phanpy in the place below Blackthorn and it's only in HeartGold.) or Teddiursa. If you have SoulSilver, you can catch Meowth and Teddiursa (but you can't catch them in HeartGold).

  • I've got a problem. I downloaded SS on my R4 but it keeps on freezing! I played for an hour and I'm only up to Azelea Gym! And to make the freezing worse, I accidentally fell over and smashed my DS on the ground. Now, practically every game on my R4 freezes. T.T

    Whoa, poor DS. :0 Anyways, have you tried patching your game? There's probably a link to your patch at the site you downloaded it from (unless it was Megaupload).

    Why don't you ask this in the Emulation section? There's a whole sticky dedicated to the emulation of HG/SS there. Here you ask about stuff pertaining to the actual content in the game (like where berries are and stuff).

    Someone also posted links to anti-freeze patches and automatic translations there. Or maybe it's just your DS.
