    Alternate accounts..?

    Speaking as someone who has had an alt account in other places other than PC: I have been in situations where having an alternate account was a way for me to distance myself from a main account that was getting way too much attention of the wrong sort including the stalking sort of attention...

    How many years have you been playing Pokémon?

    I'm new to the Pokemon games (NOT new at all to the Pokemon franchise; I was following Pokemon since Generation I and I have the old original Pocket Pikachu device) and SoulSilver was my first Pokemon game and so I've clocked in *glances at game* 540 hours on SS + 25 hours newer hours on my...

    Saving again and again...

    Guilty as charged. Especially if I am in the middle of EV training or if I just caught a hard-to-catch Pokemon or if I just finished a difficult area (I'm still wandering in Kanto without having beaten the Gym Leaders because I'm just taking my time) or if I am playing the Goldenrod Lottery or...

    How would you react?

    Man oh man, I've clocked in 540+ hours on my Soul Silver game and that includes: a ton of EVing a bunch of Pokemon for various team set-ups, getting the Trainer stars for Pokeathlon, Shiny Leaves, and beating the Elite Four, playing loads of Voltorb Flip and Battle Frontier, and a lot of time...

    HG/SS Help Thread

    U-Turn - in addition to being a base 70 (+ STAB) damage physical move - is a good scouting move and a good way for Scizor to lead into a battle, see who's there, and if it's someone he isn't going to like, he can turn around and switch with another Pokemon with the U-turn move while potentially...

    4th Gen Ash's Pikachu Event *USA*

    A bit of a funny story: I called Toys "R" Us two weeks in advance to see which locations would be hosting the Pikachu because not all locations host the event. When I called in to my own local stores, one person said they had no idea whatsoever about the event and another said they weren't...

    Hardest Trainer Star To Get?

    The Battle whatever-it-is for sure for me! Shiny Leaves are easy once you know what routes to go on and if it's 'time' for your Pokemon to find a leaf. Pokeathlon wasn't so difficult though on certain courses I had to do multiple run-throughs. Pokedex completion = time consuming, but not...

    Pokerus VS Shiny Pokemon

    SRing = Soft Resetting. :) And whoa. It seems like everyone's had a bit of a similar experience - encounter one or the other but not much (if any) of both.

    4th Gen The "WTF" Moment Thread

    I'm training my Muncher and it still has Metronome since it's a Pokewalker Munch and... it uses Ho-oh's Sacred Fire. ... Against a Quagsire.

    Pokerus VS Shiny Pokemon

    I guess maybe it really all is the luck of the draw, then. In some other forums and with my friends, they seem to think that Shinies are so much easier to find than Pokerus (actually, if the probability posted in Bulbapedia is right, Shinies ARE easier to find than Pokerus, supposedly) and it...

    Pokerus VS Shiny Pokemon

    After encountering yet another PKRSed Pokemon in my game and STILL NO SHINIES, I've been wondering a couple of things: Which has been more difficult for you to encounter - PKRSed Pokemon or Shiny Pokemon? What is the probability of encountering PKRS and Shinies and does this change in each...

    Clarity on the use of Action Replay

    Since we're all talking about IV checking and whatnot... In HGSS (probably in the other games, too), you can go to two different places in the Johto and Kanto regions and two different people in those certain places can tell you information that is related to your IVs. Even though no actual...

    Clarity on the use of Action Replay

    I'm headed off to work in a few so this will be the last response I can give you until I come back (which will be in another 4ish hours or so), but I'll answer as much of your questions now and whatever questions you still have I will answer when I come back. :) As far as I know/have...

    Clarity on the use of Action Replay

    Don't quote me on this, but since you're talking about Pokemon passing a tourney hack check (like for an official Pokemon tourney event?), you might not want to bother risking using AR AT ALL. When last year's Pokemon tourney was announced, there were a few (or one major - I don't recall if the...

    Issue: Major Lag and Resource Hogging?

    Thanks for the responses everyone. In all actuality, the portable machine I use is on the older side of things, so some amount of slowness is - at this point - simply kind of anticipated. I mean... 2 Gigs of RAM? Yeah, this machine is kind of old. On the other hand, I had never experienced...
