Drifloon won't show up!
 
OK, on my Pokemon pearl version, I just beat mars at the windworks. I turned my DS clock to a friday night. But Drifloon won't show up! I did the same with my Diamond and it worked, but it won't show up on my Pearl version! How can I get it to show up?!?!?

Shadowz November 3rd, 2007 12:23 PM

Dunno, you sure you set it to Friday night, check again.

-Amso-

~!Fuddmeyer!~ November 3rd, 2007 12:26 PM

Yeah it's on friday. I tried again it's still not there....

Cacttus November 3rd, 2007 12:39 PM

Set it to the morning time then.

Shadowz November 3rd, 2007 12:44 PM

Weird, it shouldn't be like that hmm??

-Amso-

SUPERKALEL November 3rd, 2007 1:08 PM

its weird, but on my pearl game, drifloon shows up every satuday, also the berry girl will not give me a berry on thursdays

Shadowthinker November 3rd, 2007 1:43 PM

It's a bit hard changing the clock.It doesn't seem to do what you want.

~!Fuddmeyer!~ November 3rd, 2007 2:06 PM

Hmmm, maybe on Diamond it's Friday and an Pearl it's saturday... Or maybe it's random for every game...

I've tried every day of the week at every time of day and it still isn't there! Is my game broke?

EmpoleMew November 3rd, 2007 2:47 PM

Have you tried leaving Valley Windworks and walking back in? If you just save there, you have to refresh the area by going in the building or going unto Route 205.

Azonic November 3rd, 2007 2:48 PM

Umm... Drifloon only shows up on Friday Daytime

Not nighttime. So try that, and if it still doesn't work, then there is something wrong with your game.

Bishopk November 3rd, 2007 2:51 PM

It's a curious thing. I managed to get one on a late-night Thursday (although it might have been Friday by that point).

Shiny Umbreon November 3rd, 2007 3:05 PM

I don't know if it's only daytime (I think I did it in the afternoon), but you need two things. Well, obviously beating Team Galactic at Valley Windworks and everything, and if you saved there before you chaned to Friday, you need to get out of Valley Windworks and then go again so the map "updates".

I'm pretty sure it's night time too. Seeing as I usually catch mine way later in the evening when I remembed that it's Friday. O.o

You also need the Forest Badge for Drifloon to start appearing there.

~!Fuddmeyer!~ November 3rd, 2007 3:38 PM

Oh... You need Gardenia's badge.... I've been wasting all this time!!!!

O.M.G.! I beat Gardenia and got cut. But Drifloon STILL isn't there!!!!

Gunn November 3rd, 2007 4:45 PM

I believe it's just Friday only on both versions regardless of the time of day. Well, Drifloon appears once a week, so maybe you have already came across it?

Lady Nicole November 3rd, 2007 10:27 PM

I beat Mars on a Friday and my Drifloon didn't show up. I had to wait a whole week >.<
Don't worry about it, it's not supposed to show up the same day you beat Mars.

Rainfall November 3rd, 2007 10:28 PM

Drifloon won't show up at night, it has to be the day. Hope that helps.

bluechu November 4th, 2007 6:22 AM

i dont know if this is write or not, but doesnt changing the clock stop some daily things from happening? like when i changed my clock on my DS this morning (since day-light savings time is over..) and i went to the mansion by the trophy garden, and the guy said it was bonsely again, but didnt go through the whole annoying story like he does every day. also, i went to go to the ribbon club place, but they wont do anything. maybe its just my game...or i did something wrong...

When you change the time on your game, the game assumes you're trying to trick it so it refuses to let you do daily events until the next day.

EmpoleMew November 4th, 2007 6:26 AM

^^ Yes, you are right. Certain daily things won't occur when you change your DS clock the most bothersome being migrating. Also, Drifloon should show up all day Friday.
Or at least it does in my Diamond.
It should be there on Fridays from 12:00 A.M. to 11:59 P.M. after having beat Mars and obtaining the Forest Badge from Gardenia.

bluechu November 4th, 2007 6:26 AM

ok, so wouldnt the same things happen with drifloon?

Dragontrainer<3 November 4th, 2007 6:39 AM

you have to go on friday morning o in the midday:)

Azonic November 4th, 2007 8:23 AM

Its confirmed on Serebii.net that Drifloon only appears in Friday DAYTIME. I believe its talking about morning.

Regigigas November 4th, 2007 9:15 AM

Drifloon appears as a sprite. He doesn't show up in the grass.
