    Are you on your bike? Since you gotta be walking to use the Poketore.

    Also, you need to charge it (by walking 50 steps... or was it a 100?) once after every use.
    It's 50 steps.

    !!**Alex**!!, you must be off your Bike in order for it to work. It can only be used in Tall Grass to (Normal Grass, not the real tall grass). And somtimes the Poketore won't find any pokemon, if so then just walk 50 Steps and try again.

    Also, as an added information bonus, if while you're using it A tile of grass glows diffrent colors: GET YOUR REPEL OUT AND DASH TOWARDS IT cuz you just got yourself A Shiny.

    Wow, so you can get shinies with the poketore? If you get in a battle before you reach it, does it go away? Will you still fight it if you have a repel on, wouldn't it repel the shiny too? =^_^= That's awesome!! Maybe I'll FINALLY find a shiny in D/P.

    It goes away when you get into another battle, that's why I mentioned A Repel. Also, the Poketore is also meant to garuntee A Pokemon battle, so even with the repel it'll still appear. This is also how I came across A Shiny Kirlia (score!)

    Haven't gotten the game yet so this is a simple one i can't look up myself. When a poke has Misuse as an ability does it mean it can hold an item but it doesn't work or it can't hold an item at all.

    Example...

    Mimiroppu : Toxic/Burn Orb
    Timid <+Spd / -Att>
    'Misuse' - <Cannot use Held Items>
    * Heal Wish
    * Sneak
    * Agility
    * Baton Pass

    Would this mean my poke wouldn't get the Burn/Toxic from the item and then he could switch it <SNEAK> to the other poke and he would get the status effect? Or can he not equip an item at all?

    Mimirop can hold the item, but it won't take effect, thus allowing you to sneak the item onto the opponent safely.

    But not all item effects can be negated with Misuse, like the Macho Brace, Kuroi Tekkyuu etc

    Although this is the most used Mimilop tactic (I've fought at least 2 people with this build... maybe more), it's unique to Mimilop, and is the most effective IMO.

    You know how if you have a fr/lg/r/s/e cartridge in your game and you go to a certain place and the pokemon is there i.e. With lg cartridge in the game, you can find a magby in hard mountain. Can you do that with an english cartridge and a japanese pearl game??

    I didn't try it out myself, but it's been said not to work.
    So you need an English game if you want to transfer the Pokémon from an English cartridge.

    Do the Japanese Pokemon games come in different colored cartridges like the English ones do? If so, are the DS game cards light blue and pink for Diamond and Pearl?

    As with all games, there are certain Pokémon exclusive to either one or the other. Another difference is that in Diamond, you get Dialga, and in Pearl, you get Palkia. Idk about any other differences tho...
