A) Which nests does the game utilize? G/S', Crystal's, or its own?
-If it uses its own, how far off are the nests from those of G/S, or Crystal?
-For that matter, what changes are there?

I'm suprised this question hasn't been asked already.

I ask because I want to know if I can find a Poliwag on the route north of Cherrygrove, or if Gligar's a HeartGold exclusive.

☆DiaIsDia☆ September 12th, 2009 7:23 PM

Yeah, what are the game exclusives if they DO have game exclusivs?

However, like I stated before, after obtaining the PokéDex you are able to trade between HGSS and DPPt without any restrictions. So, you will be permitted to trade over your Poliwag egg into your Johto game.

Thanks i did not know about the pokedex thing lol that might change my team a bit lol And also any one know where swinub can be captured

I found a Poliwag when fishing in Ercuteak/Surfing in ponds around htere, Violet City and Cheerygrove... most definitely not missing from HG/SS.

EDIT - my bet on Swinub would be the Ice Path as well.

I just got the game and I've been playing it since 4 PM... this is a totally nooby question but does anyone know how to catch that Farfetch'd at Ilex? I'm really failing at it.
I mentioned some hints in the second post in this thread on how to get it if you're still stuck. =)

I thought Poliwag shouldn't have been missing noting how it is a Johto type Pokémon. Great for the extra information however and it only proves my point on how not all sites and places have completely specified each location for each Pokémon. Though, trade is still available needless to say as well as capturing it.

As for Swinub, my guess as well goes to the Ice Path and probably later on along the game upon Mt. Silver in the snow-filled area closer to the journey towards Red.

Bulbapedia isn't the place to be trying to figure out where things in HG/SS are found. If you take a close look at the encounter list, according to them, Pidgey is also unavailable in HG/SS. It's just that it's taking Bulbapedia some time to edit all the encounter lists for HG/SS because they don't know them all yet. I'm sure we'll figure it out soon enough. :V

My question was just asking if anyone knew any encounters, that it would be helpful to have them posted here.

We have to wait 'till Bulbapedia/SPP reveals it...
This games are new so it'll take some time

True but when Platinum was coming out, didn't the exclusives come out early?

Ellie September 12th, 2009 10:57 PM

Well since Bulbapedia is a user-based information database, how long it takes to get up depends on how fast the users choose to put it up. If you want it quickly, you should go to a site that's consistently updated, like Serebii, Psypoke, etc.

I don't really know I gotta say...
But the thing is... HG/SS is bigger since it has Johto and Kanto so exclusives will be harder to find

I have question, how the hell do you swap around the sides in the kaputos puzzle, it is extremely hard, and nosgba makes it so much harder (btw im on an emulator)

If you are using no$gba use the computers mouse as the ds stylus and
double click on the pieces and they will spin some don't move you dont have
to move them only the ones that move

If I recall correctly, you run into someone on the way to... Mahogany Town(?). I know that it's part of the storyline, you won't miss it.

I see then... thanks I thought I'd have to have it in Olivine

Andrew McKenzie September 13th, 2009 3:49 AM

So...

For anyone who's still stumped on Giovanni(probably not anymore though) and is very prone to repeated asking, like I was, Serebii has cracked it.

Check his posts HERE and HERE
