@Swimmer Ryan:

Go down to where you awakened the Legendary Dogs. Walk around there; they're very common.

Read what I said, I've been trying about a 100 times, no luck.

You can find it on Routes 34, 35, and 47.

 

[BeachBoy]

Moved the ditto location thread over here, try and use this thread for general questions like that next time.

(Also, ditto is at cerulean cave, no?)

^ Is what I was trying to say, Swimmer Ryan. >:)

For the safari zone, do I really have to wait like 110 days for certain pokemon to appear?
Is there a way to manipulate the DS internal clock to make it go by faster?
And when does boaba give me more blocks in the safari zone? so far i only have like 6 different ones.

Hello All,

I just picked up my Eevee from Bill in Goldenrod, now since I have never evolved a pokemon through happiness? I know to get an Umbreon I need to evolve via Happiness at night but how can I know a) how happy it is (ie getting close to evolution level happiness) and b) any advice for getting the happiness up at night?

Many Thanks

Using Vitamins, like Rare Candies, walking around with it as the first pokemon in the party and battling with it are the general ways to get Eevee to evolve. Giving it massages as well helps out, also in Platinum made it easier if you gave it a soothe bell. So if you can transfer a soothe bell from plat to HG/SS then you should have it evolved in no time.

^ Also, to add what was said, you can find a Soothe Bell in the National Park in HG/SS, near the trees to the top right.

In Goldenrod city there is a girl who tells you how happy your Pokemon are (she is east of the Dept. Store). You can also tell by speaking to them when they are at full health and have no status condition. If you know that they are happy and it isn't night time, don't level it up. Either wait or change your DS clock to around 8:00 (no earlier than 8:00). To make a Pokemon happy, have them at the front of your team, have it hold the soothe bell (located in the National Park), give it stat-boosting items (Zinc, Protein, Carbos, etc.), have it massaged, and take it in your PokeWalker. There are many ways to get the happiness up.

EDIT: aww, beat :(

I'm still playing my Japanese SoulSilver, so um...I keep trying to go to the Safari Zone...but I can't go in. xD Do I need to do something? I'm already in Kanto now though, so...

 

[Kardin]

I already asked this, but either no one knew or it went unnoticed. I'll give it a second shot:

What's the deal with swarms in this game? I know they're announced on Oak's pokemon talk, but does he only start announcing them after a certain point in the game, or at a certain time, or do I really just have to wade through hours of RATATTA CAN BE FOUND BLAH BLAH BLAH?

 

[Gaspar]

Ah so its needs to be super happy then it will evolve when it next levels up? Also another question; is there a set amount of time it will take before an egg appears between two compatible parents?

 

[Adriano2665]

so no1s far enough in the safari to give me info on pokemon that take like 30-110 days to appear?

You know you could try Serebii, they seem to have that covered pretty well.

Ya I read that (and a bunch of other websites). But none of them tell me how to speed up the days. On page 9, someone mentioned how they have encountered a beldum. Beldum required 70 days to appear, so I dont see how thats possible. hahaha. Im just wondering how to speed up the days.

Thanks

I'm just going to go ahead and point out they may have the Japanese version, which has been out for more than 70 days, that may be why.
As for speeding up the days, I don't know, sorry.
