The Underground
 
This thread is for everything related to the underground.

Somethings we can discuss here are the best places to hide your bases and what techniques you use to get the best items while treasure hunting and finally you largest spheres and your scores.

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 21st, 2008 11:09 AM

my biggest sphere was 29 and i stole my little cousins diamond and just kept stealing his flag until i had a platinum!

NitroZ3R0 January 21st, 2008 11:23 AM

can anyone arrange to meet me underground?
I dug up the odd keystone and now I need to talk to someone 32 times if im not mistaken...

You can't meet other people in the Underground through Wi-Fi, though.

Devil_Silver January 21st, 2008 11:25 AM

Well, Nitro, I don't think you can go underground with someone over WiFi.

NitroZ3R0 January 21st, 2008 11:25 AM

ok
what must I do then because I heard you cant talk to the diggers who sell stuff?

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 21st, 2008 11:31 AM

Do you have a friend locally who can go underground with yoou, thats the only way

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 12:25 PM

Yes they are right about not being able to go underground with anyone Wi-Fi.

To date, i have dug up 4 fossils, more than 35 stones of various kinds, more than 20 shards, 3 plates, more than 15 hold items, 286 spheres and my score is 3049. ^^. Spheres bag is also full due to 99 in all types of spheres. If you guys need any underground items please feel free to ask or PM me if you would like me to go and dig it up for you.

Zeturic January 21st, 2008 12:35 PM

I've had a fossil of every type except the Skull Fossil. Umm... I have, I think, a Gold Flag. Mainly, thats because I have both games, and I can't stop myself from getting a flag, as I can't play two games at once. Oh well... Umm... I think the biggest sphere was like 60-some, as I planted it, and forgot it.

Also, am I the only one who hates how the movement is altered slightly to have a different sensitivity?

I dont quite understand what you mean.

MUSION January 21st, 2008 2:16 PM

Moving around underground is slightly different than usuall I think. I don't mind it though.

Does anyone else have a particular item that they seem to find unusually often? For me it's Water Stones, I currently have 62 of them. Leaf Stones (48) and Everstones (44) too.

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 2:20 PM

For me im always finding leaf and water stones as well as large pale spheres.

I believe the best place for a base is the middle of the whole underground. (you can get in it by going down right in front of the celestic town pokemon center.)

Drakorn January 21st, 2008 2:22 PM

If you're using pearl then that is why you find loads of water stones & Moon stones however it's rarely for sun stones. As for diamond you will find loads of Fire stones & Sun stones. And for Leaf stones they have the same chance on both Diamond and Pearl.

My findings: Found 26 water stones, 10 moon stones, 3 sun stones, 1 leaf stone in an hour. My highest sphere is 99 but the highest I found while digging is 20. My underground is a few steps in when you dig in Eterna City, it is inbetween 2 huge walls. Near the hiker.

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 2:26 PM

Would any one like to discuss scores? and how to get them really high?

Mine is 3151 at the moment (you can find it by looking on your trainer card).

Drakorn January 21st, 2008 2:28 PM

Mine is over 31000, I get score for when I'm digging, building up level spheres, trading them to the hikers, deactivating mines etc.

Edit: It is well over 9000

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 2:33 PM

I dont trade anymore as my sphere bag is all full with lvl 99s of all the spheres, and when i recover spheres i just dont pick them up due to the fact that i have no more room =/ i kinda like it that way because you only have to worry about getting treasures and not spheres any more. =)

Drakorn January 21st, 2008 2:40 PM

Yeah that is true. I only have one 99 at the moment and that is the red one. I buy stuff for my secret base, you see. I don't like it being too plain.

However here is my stats for the underground;

Name: John
ID: 55359
Base Flag: Gold
Score: 31343
People Met: 50
Gifts Given: 128
Flags obtained: 27

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 2:47 PM

Man I haven't been underground for AGES.

I used to just play around making mazes in my base. I have 6 of each maze block.

Callydude™ January 21st, 2008 3:46 PM

I have found over 20 Armor fossils.But I find green shards are most common for me.I have found over 100 green shards.I just sell the items I have more then one of except the fossils.I need the money so I can get the P 999,999 ribbon from the speacial place that you need to have master rank in 1 of the contests from Hoenn or Sinnoh.

MUSION January 21st, 2008 3:53 PM

Go to the old dudes near the mansion on Route 212. The old man has a Lv.40 Chatot and the woman has a Lv.40 Roselia. Battle them with an Amulet Coin held and you will get 24000 from each one each time. Beat a Lv.40 Pokemon and get 24K, it's how I get my cash AND train at the same time.

What do you mean by i just sell them? The item that is worth the worth the most that is gotten from the underground is an evolution stone...and that too only goes for 1050, you my freind are wasting your stones if you just sell them and any item that you got from the underground should not be sold..(except for star pieces) thats just my view on this matter. Its you're game so you're in charge of it, im just here to give a few tips.

And also agree one of the best places to train in by the pokemon mansion decent EXP and great money.

Callydude™ January 21st, 2008 6:02 PM

I never have a use for them thats why I sell them.

Darkgale January 21st, 2008 6:31 PM

You do make a good point, i also have no use for them at the current moment but i also supply the evolution stones for my organization so i cant sell mine, still i think its a rip off to sell them. We give away starters and other pokemon at giveaways the link is in my sig if you should like to join.

Saryka January 21st, 2008 6:43 PM

I collect the stones I find. You never know when you might need one. :P I collect the plates too. Man, I'm so ready to own an Arceus. Just bring it on! :P

Yea same here when i the event comes out i am so gonna get an arceus and i am going to be ready =p.

Sceptile837 January 22nd, 2008 3:42 PM

Supposedly I have insane luck underground according to my friend (whom I enjoy teasing them about) because at the moment I have 59 heart scales in my items, but I've used a few in the past. I'm not really down there that much either.

Kuri-Chan ♪ January 22nd, 2008 4:16 PM

My Underground score is 10,646. I love the underground, but I hate how you can't get Dusk Stones, Dawn Stones and Shiny Stones. =P

I have gotten one of each from the underground :P At least I think I have?

MUSION January 23rd, 2008 12:17 AM

You can't get Dawn Stones, Dusk Stones or Shiny Stones underground, so you couldn't have.

Heart Scales are common treasure, I currently have 122. Annoyingly, Hard Stones become just as common once you beat the Pokemon League.

Dark Destiny January 23rd, 2008 9:28 AM

this is slightly off topic but

i got an odd keystone when i tlked to the blackbelt buy just south of the berry master...

Last i got was 2 thunderstones =)

Really :/ Wow, I feel dumb now D:

Stridon January 23rd, 2008 8:22 PM

ok i found something out

you know how u can burry your spheres?

well burry the same type of sphere in the same place and it gets bigger thats how i have 2 99 red spheres an a 77 prism and a 49 blue spheres


try it it works

MUSION January 24th, 2008 2:07 AM

Plus if you leave them buried, they'll grow each day. Red, blue and green spheres by about 5-8, pale and prisms only about 1-3 sizes.

Because of a couple month absence from the underground, I now have LOADS of size 99 spheres.

Darkgale January 24th, 2008 1:31 PM

Yea my sphere bag is full of all 99s and now i dont have to worry about collecting spheres, i just go for te good stuff like stones, plates, shards and fossils.

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 24th, 2008 3:41 PM

How common are heart scales. I really need some on my new diamond

only one January 24th, 2008 11:49 PM

you bet you do need it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MUSION January 25th, 2008 2:45 AM

My pokedex book measures the rarity of underground treasures on a scale of:
A - Common
B - Uncommon
C - Rare
D - Very Rare

Heart Scales are in the 'B' section

Off-topic but I have the Pokedex book too! xD

Anyone else at Platinum Flag? I sat down one day and used my brother's Diamond to get my flag to Platinum. The only thing I wish was better is the fact that even at Platinum, you can still only put 16 goods in your base. =|

You forget: rare bones can be found underground, and I'm pretty sure they are worth more than 1050.

Aruseus Rider January 25th, 2008 8:08 PM

I keep getting rare bones...they're driving me crazy!
I just got platinum flag by using my friend's diamond.

Yeah I have Platinum flag, my bro and I build bases next to each other and kept running to and fro, bumping into each other a lot. A maximum of 16 items isn't enough, should have increased to 20, it's a decent amount.

Jack Surge January 26th, 2008 6:05 AM

Hmm. Well, I don't spend much time down there, but I do have at least five size 99 spheres of every kind, I have the Platinum Flag for my base, so it doesn't have any rocks it it. I have a doll of every single starter there is, along with many others.

My base is located right under the Resort Area Pokemon Center. I just find it's easy to remember it there.

GamerFreak January 26th, 2008 7:48 AM

Hello.:)

The largest sphere I've had are some 99s. I left them in for quite sometime, and I still do it to get the highest spheres. I actually like to keep all of the spheres in my backpack size 99s.


squigglewacks January 26th, 2008 10:45 AM

The best way to protect your flag is to make a maze of items in your base. The best items for your bass are:
The big globe
Flower plots
Tools (excluding alert tools)
Small bookshelf
TV
Beds
Chairs and cushons
Maze blocks
ect.

I once was playing underground at my school, and some kid came into my base. he got so confused that by the time he got to my flag, I had stolen his flag three times. I then put a move trap and a bubble trap outside my base, so when he got out I took the flag back and went back into my base.

Shadow of Fears January 26th, 2008 11:13 AM

did anyone ever try to make a maze with all maze blocks i need to know how many maze blocks there are because i am unsure thanks...

I have 6 of each Maze Block type, I can spend ages just mixing them around.

Mr.Mystery January 26th, 2008 7:56 PM

Never heard of maze blocks..
Do you use traps alot? I pile traps in front of my door so if someone tries to steal my flag, they will be stopped for awhile so i can catch them and recover my flag.

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 26th, 2008 8:01 PM

yeah, ive no idea what you gys are talking about. And hey, whats the largest amount of people youve been underground with

squigglewacks January 26th, 2008 8:55 PM

3. me and my pal owned some stranger that we found down there. I took his flag, handed it to my pal paul, and he returned it. the other guy could do nothing, it was 2 against one!

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 26th, 2008 10:00 PM

that is totally low but i wish i could pick on some stranger wandering around

MUSION January 27th, 2008 12:18 AM

I've only had 3 people underground at most, including myself. It'd be great to have a whole group playing.

blubergate January 27th, 2008 11:23 AM

I have dug up like 3fossils, it is so annoying!
but i have like an endless supply of shards.

P.S a brag to reply to someone in page 1 said: I have Arceus-My friend went to event and i made him take my ds-so i always have a use for plates

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 27th, 2008 11:25 AM

You are lying, your friend just went home and put his action replay to work and gave you an azure flute and told you he wen to an event. lol... arceus is currently unobtainable........ to stay on topic, after a while do certain items get rare because i cant find shards anymore

MUSION January 28th, 2008 12:44 AM

I don't think any items get rarer, but many become more common and new ones become available. I guess because of that though, the chances of finding items that haven't changed rarity may be a little lower though, as there is a bigger variety of items.

blubergate January 28th, 2008 7:48 AM

nuhuh

Actually his entire family had booked a holiday in japan and when they got back they had loads of stuff from the convention and besides he doesn't have an action replay.

Im guessing that you have obtained the national dex so with more items available for uncovering, the chances or a shard appearing get slimmer, I also experience this because i used to get at least 2 shard per each trip down there, but after the nation dex, im barely getting one. I seem to be finding more and more water and leaf stones instead...

*Jaws drop*
I have like 15 fires and 18 thunders
i have 3 water
and 2 leafs

i haven't used one yet...

i need waters and leafs...

EDIT: just curious, do you have pearl of diamond? cos it might make a difference

Darkgale January 28th, 2008 1:05 PM

Yea my guess is that in diamond, fire and thunders are more common and in pearl, leaf and water. And btw i have pearl so this would make sense.

Correct, it's the same for fossils too. Helix and Claw fossils are more common in Diamond, while Dome and Root fossils appear more in Pearl.

Of course it counts as SPAM, it has doesn't relate to the topic that much, and you're advertising your own site!

Lol, I always cheat in the capture the flag thing, I just stand at the entrance of secret base so I block my friends from getting in.

Darkgale January 31st, 2008 12:33 PM

Hey guys i now have alot of fossils, so just a question: is it possible to just keep soft resetting before u get the revived fossil from the guy for a shiny? or is it decided if its shiny or not when you get the fossil like IVs are decided right when you get the egg?

BTW:im not planing to, but its just something i always wanted to know

Dark Destiny January 31st, 2008 12:42 PM

not sure but i love collecting fossils, to bad i just DNA them straight away, i have almost filled one box with random fossil pokemon =)

squigglewacks February 4th, 2008 12:33 PM

Is there a way to get unlimited items in your base? I want to make an ultimate base, and need to kno how many flag caps i need.

MUSION February 4th, 2008 1:23 PM

No the maximum number of items is 16.

PALKIAno.128 February 4th, 2008 3:43 PM

if you want nobody to get to your base, put it under celestic town. my friend did that, and i can never get his flag.

and you can only have 15 items

MUSION February 5th, 2008 12:24 AM

Ah yes, sorry, 16 is the amount or rocks you can remove.

Grey blocks when digging in the Underground?
 
When digging in the Underground I notice there are grey blocks but even when I completely uncover one, they aren't listing with what I have dug up. Sometimes they are big squares or rectangles, other times they look like you could make a puzzle from them. I'm not talking about the plates that you can put in your bag to take back up.

Are the grey blocks just there to get in the way of your digging or do they have any other use?

TwilightBlade April 16th, 2008 7:50 PM

BaalASystemLord, please do not post in threads that are over a month old. I'm not sure about your question so feel free to remake a thread about the underground if you'd like.
