EDIT: Wow, I'm a slow typer... XD

The first Lugia is a hack.

The second looks legit, but the previous owner could have also hacked the event item that let them go to Navel Rock.

Rayquaza, I'm not sure, I can't remember where "Canyon Entrance" is in the game. But I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be found in "Sky Pillar". Also he's always found at level 50 to my knowledge.

Kyogre and Groudon are both hacked.

Ho-Oh is the same as Lugia. Could be legit, or the event could be hacked.

Latios is a hack.

What does Action Replay do?
I know someone on another site who has it and he says he can use it to get any Pokemon, and I don't have a problem with that. BUT what I was also wondering is if Pokemon you get with Action Replay are considered hacks, because if they are I want to avoid trading with him, as I like legit Pokemon.

Action replay does lots of things. Like for one, it can give all items, it can give shiny pokemon, it can change levels, check ivs, LOTS of things. But the pokemon caught with action replay are considered hacks. So if you like legit pokemon, don't trade with him.

On most websites and to most people, pokemon obtain with AR are considered hacks. However, it depends on the person. Some people are find with AR if it is used only to clone pokemon so that someone can build a collection without having to give up what they're got so far. And some people don't mind ARing to add EVs and moved for battling, as long as the moves and EVs are legit for that pokemon.
It's up to you really, but in most parts of the pokemon world, AR is hacking and not allowed. =P

Ok, I'm doing a water monotype challenge on Diamond, and I was wondering. Should I trade over any water starters (other than Piplup, obviously) for the challenge? Or should I stick to just Sinnoh dex pokemon?

 

[Lt_Nite]

Okay so I need to get a Munchlax, but reading up on the honey tree thing it really confuses me. Can anyone tell me some tips on making it easier to get it one to appear, or how the whole honey trees work, like the columns and whatnot. Or is it just pure luck and chance to get one to appear. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

I honestly have never gotten a Munchlax from trees. But this is the best option:

1)Buy as much honey as you possibly can.
2)Go to any trees you are guaranteed to remember the locations of.
3)Put honey on all those trees.
4)Wait 12-24 hours come back and check EVERY tree you put it on.

There is only a 1% chance on d/p, i'm unsure of Platinums chances. So all you can do is keep hoping until you get one.

Depends on personal preference, I say bring over a couple of the ones that you can't get till late in the game, like kingdra/horsea. Theres not a lot of water pokemon in sinnoh from my experience with the game.

[Platinum] How do you clone?

Just wondering how you clone in pokémon platinum? Without cheating.

Thanx
Jordan

1. Go to the GTS and Deposit your Pokemon
2. When the waiting screen comes up when you selected to deposite your Pokemon wait 15-18 seconds, then turn off your game.
3. Turn your game back on and your game will say "your game data has been corrupted, you will start from your last save point"
4. Check your party to see if the Pokemon you were trying to clone is still in it.
5. Go to the GTS and your withdraw your cloned Pokemon.

PS: This could take a few tries, it took me 3 to just clone my Infernape...


That's the only way:)

Keep in mind, this is at risk to your game.

Another question.. Why wont shaymin show on my pokédex?

 

[cheese rox!]

You need the national dex for it to show. If you have the national dex, I have no idea.

 

[bubbles101]

Complete the Sinnoh Dex and beat the Elite 4, then go and visit Prof. Rowan, and Oak will enter and upgrade your Sinnoh Dex to the National Dex ;D

Do ball seals and capsules do anything to the pokemon, other than look good.

 

[ConnoRAWR]

Cant this go in the Q&A thread?

 

[Zelda]

No they do not. They're just for the looks and they don't help you with anything. Hope this helped.

Actually, the only real prerequisite is completing the Sinnoh Pokedex, which can be done by either capturing or battling in-game all of the included Pokemon. Wi-Fi battles do not count, although Wi-Fi trades do.
