    • I'm just kind of confused /w the Power items and breeding.

    Say if a Male Larvitar with a 28 IV in HP is put into the daycare holding a Power Weight, and a 31 Attack IV'd Ditto holding a Power Bracer is also put in.
    Will both IV's be passed down? I read some different things on the Smogon forums: I heard from one user that either one IV or the other will be passed down to the offspring, but not both, and I heard from yet another user that both can be passed down but not 100%.

    Which is true, does anyone know? I need a definite answer.
    Thanks in advance.

    on the pokewalker the ! are normal then you transfer them onto your game and go to pokemon center and save in front of computer i was wondering if you could SR them to be shiny i know that you can SR their nature

    • hey, I'm trying to find a pineco to evolve into a forrestress so I can get a beldum from Steven, but I can't find a pineco anywhere. I've been headbutting tress but I keep getting hoothoot and spearow. Where should I headbutt to get a pineco? the rate of getting a pokemon when headbutting seems to be really low, out of 10 times I headbutt a tree (the same tree for all 10 times), I usually only find 2 or 3 pokemon

    edit: nevermind I finally found one, I guess they're just not that common xD

    • you can get it at the goldenrod department store. I think It's TM 70 or something. You can get as many as you want and it's relatively cheap. While I was playing through HG, I was always low on cash until after the 6th gym, but I was using savings, so you should be fine.

    Turn the game off? There's no reason to be afraid since all you're doing is breeding like you normally do.

    Recently, my friend has been having trouble with his Pokéwalker. From what he's told me, he resynched it to his game and now the menu doesn't display how many Watts are needed to get the next route, nor do any of his Watts from the Pokéwalker register.

    We're both stumped as to what the cause could be, or how to combat it. Any suggestions?

    I'm just bringing this over from the previous page, as I still don't have an answer and I am seeing my friend tomorrow morning, when we would like to have this sorted. Muchos gracias. ~♪

    Help!

    does anyone know of a method to store pokemon outside of D/P & HG/SS, so that you can restart your game WITHOUT losing your pokemon? Like how Colosseum/XD/Pokemon Box can store pokemon from R/S/E/LG/FR, is there something out there that can store pokemon from D/P & HG/SS?

    • @ AbsolDemon - MyPokemonRanch. It's a WiiWare thing. Good thing is, that when you put in 999 pokemon, you get a Mew! However, you have to send them back to the save file they came from....

    @ CountryEmo - You tried the top-right entrance to the centre of the gym right?
    Because that's where you go in to get to her

    • My Pokemon Ranch only works with Diamond and Pearl. Platinum for the Japanese since they received an update. Otherwise, there is none for HG/SS as of yet.

    My Pokemon Ranch works for Diamond and Pearl, but not Platinum and onward. We ask for a patch, Nintendo said that we don't want it.

    • Regardless, it's to my understanding that My Pokémon Ranch can't be used to transfer Pokémon from one save file to another (even if it's a new game on the same cartridge).

    Bulbapedia said:
    It is essentially a Generation IV version of Pokémon Box. However, it is notable that Pokémon Ranch is similar to Pokémon Battle Revolution in that it will only interact with specific save files. This means that if a Pokémon is placed on the ranch, only the game from which it was placed onto the ranch may take the Pokémon back off it. This prevents people storing Pokémon and starting a new game - something for which previous storage titles were quite useful.

    As such, in the current generation, there really is no way at the moment to transfer Pokémon and items in massive amounts from one game/file to another, besides the very slow trading method...which is just ridiculous, but not much we can do about it~
