Do you have a Starbucks nearby? You should be able to get WiFi access there (should say Bell-something, iirc), and doesn't require a password afaik. Chances are, the two you got at McDonalds weren't actually owned by McDonalds, but some other persons, which would have required a WEP key to...

I'm actually sort of doing it the other way around. I ultimately decided Platinum would be my permanent game, and everything else will feed into my goal of completing the National dex. I already have it 60% or so complete on Diamond, and won't reset until I get some of the pokemon over to...

This. Use your heads, people. Trading over wifi isn't like sitting next to a person and using a link cable like for the GBA games. Sometimes, you're trading with players across the globe. Even if there WAS a skip button, it probably won't work anyways, at least not until the data has...

Lugia and Ho-oh. Those two are the only things I can see from getting either HG or SS. Oh, and the possibility of Celebi being an event pokemon. If it turns out I'm lucky enough to get a Mystic Ticket, I won't bother buying them and stick to Platinum. Or I might just buy it for the nostalgia.

I'm guessing any pictures currently in existance would be fake. Why ...? Do you honestly think they'll have a cover design ready 6 months before the game is released? Highly unlikely. Even if it is real, it'll probably be an early design, and not the final design. That's if the announcement on...

I think I got nearly 10-15 Heart scales in about a day of digging. That's quite a chunk. That was back in D/P. I also remember getting tons of thunderstones, fire stones, and a handful of water stones among some of the other evolution stones. Haven't gone digging in Platinum yet; I'm waiting...

You can still obtain most of them from the Trophy garden, Pokeradar, daily swarms, Great Marsh, and breeding some of them to get baby forms/base forms. You can't get the GBA insertion pokemon though, since that requires the slot, however, only a small selection is available through the slot. In...

It hasn't been released in Europe yet; you *might* be able to get it then, over wifi, since it should be possible to get it worldwide. Not sure if you need the appropriate region game though, or maybe just the right language (English) should do. I know I wasn't able to get the Oak's letter event...

I suppose you're right. Sucks though, I honestly wouldn't have minded the extra thickness for the GBA slot, would have made a perfect console. Could also be that the DSi's new features required more hardware == no room for the GBA slot. Oh well. (Either way, I'll probably be forced to buy the...

Give it Thunderbolt and Psychic while you're at it; Psychic for STAB and Thunderbolt for annoying water types (unless you had grass moves). That's what I eventually decided on, after painstakingly capturing Azelf.

I got Platinum for my birthday :) Just about to head towards Volkner now, with Empoleon, Staraptor, Garchomp and Azelf ... my team for the E4. Hoping to get them all to 60ish (50ish right now). It's sure as hell worth it. The WiFi events are just plain awesome (got the Secret Key not long after...

It would have to be Maylene. She's cute :) Not to mention strong too. I'm a sucker for cute and strong girls; at least they don't match the stereotypical female. It's an odd mix, but nice nonetheless.

That would really suck if the remakes were playable only on the DSi. Dunno if the Lite can play DSi games, though they both use the same type of cartridge, so it's possible it won't matter. Fingers crossed though. Gosh Nintendo sure knows how to lure players into buying products.

I arrange them by region, leaving about 3 boxes per region, sometimes less depending on the number. Typically, I don't collect every single stage of each evolution, so it usually works out that 3 boxes is more than sufficient for each region. Of course, for those pokemon that evolve into a...

I'll have to go with Giratina. Rotom's forms are kinda ... weird. As for Shaymin, it looks nice, but I prefer the normal form because it's a lot cuter, and more suiting for its name.
