    An easy way around, if you have 2 gba games:
    1. Migrate
    2. Go into DS settings and change time 1 day forward
    3. Save settings, insert the second gba game, and start up Pearl/Diamond
    4. Have the game adjust the clock, therefore preventing migration from that one game.
    5. Turn off, insert the first game, and migrate another 6.
    6. Rinse and repeat.

    Thats a good idea, but some people like me like the right date

    The game has it set that you CAN'T push the time forward, and then it'll lock up for another 24 hours. Not worth to do, I say.

    Supreme Dirt's method works. I've done it many times before.

    Isn't it obvious? To prevent cheating I bet... something stupid like that, about as dumb as no HM moves.

  • It would be good if they allowed you to import pokemon with HM moves in Platinim actually, it really annoys me that you can't >.<
    do they have any reason for that either?

    I think the HM ban is to prevent the possibility of ruining your Emerald save file. Getting stuck someplace because you Pal Park'd all your HM slaves would suck.

    Dive isn't even a TM :/

    That means the ONLY Pokemon that can get Dive in D/P Are the ones that learn it via Level-Up and Breeding, similar to what they did to Whirlpool in the 3rd(and 4th) Gen.

    So, like Whirlpool, about 90% of the Pokemon that could once get it cannot anymore ;<

    Off Topic

    I hope there's a Curse Move Tutor in Platnium, as it was a GSC TM that anything TM-Compatable can learn, similar to Facade, Substitute, and Toxic.

    Curse + Gyro Ball Dootakun ftw!

    On Topic:

    On the same note I think they should've at least allowed Flash and Dive in Pal Park, as one was Demoted and the other was completely Replaced.
