Ok, well I just found out that Pokemon heart gold and soul silver were on the net 2 days ago. So I snagged it. I'm playing soul silver. I was strictly using Japanese without any patches. I figured out my way around and got the egg (couldn't read jap so I didn't know I had it till i was fiddling in menus and saw a egg >.>) I delivered it to elm and tried to leave the town and the girl stopped me to demonstrate how to catch a Pokemon and it... FROZE! I WAS FURIOUS! I didn't save cause I didn't know how >.>
So I searched on the net and went through a lot of patches and finally found one that would work. I'm playing it on a AK2 and I'm using a partially English translation (Menus and items translated) and a non-freeze patch. SO far I haven't encountered a freeze, but I save after every battle, which gets highly annoying cause I never save games until I'm done with them for the sit down.
Enough about the bad things that's happened. So far I've chosen cyndaquil as my starter and its lvl 9 Ive caught a hoot-hoot at level 4, I've caught a rattata at lvl 4 and its currently at lvl 6. I started this game last night and the only thing around was hoot-hoots and rattatas which is highly annoying >.> cant wait to play today :D Oh and im at Rout 31 in front of a cave, which I have no idea what it is cause I cant read Jap :/

It works as long as your Emulator is using .nds games.

Update: Rt.26. I move too slow -__-;

GunSaberSeraph September 21st, 2009 2:13 PM

Since my last post, I reached Kanto. My teams levels are a bit low, So I decided to go after Janine's badge first.(She has the lowest levels) Also I finished the machine part quest and got the magnet train working(The magnet train theme sounds awesome, by the way)

Now I'm going to see if I can find someone who'll trade me a Kingdra.

thewinna September 21st, 2009 2:20 PM

i got a poliwag mareep quilava. training for 3rd gym

The Fourteenth Doctor September 21st, 2009 2:28 PM

Obtained Squirtle and a Treecko, i also caught a Pineco from Headbutting trees, i used pokesav to get it across to platinum and evolved it into Forretress using rare candies, i went to Saffron City and traded it for Beldum, i went to Cerulean Cave and caught Mewtwo after a lot of backtracking and stair climbing, will be capturing Articuno, Zapdos, Latias (one of them that's in the game), Kyogre and possibly Rayquaza if the game accepts a Groudon Pokesav file downloaded from project pokemon (pokesav page), i don't have an Emerald Cart (plus it would have to be japanese anyway), once i've done all that i will probably run around listening to the old music until i get bored and decide to start a new game (always get bored when the game is completed lol)

humanking September 21st, 2009 2:28 PM

celadon gym is defeated, i have 3 kanto badges now. I decided that when i'll have all 8, i'll put all my team in the pc and build a whole new one out of nothing just to beat Red with. This'll give me a wider range of pokemon to choose from to build my roster since atm i only have 6 pokemon over level 40.

Sasuke. September 21st, 2009 3:04 PM

Making my way threw Victory Road. Thank god for Repels.

Sasuke. September 21st, 2009 4:51 PM

Taking on E4:
Will: Not too hard.
Koga: Pretty simple

kohei September 22nd, 2009 4:31 AM

Walking around in random bushes right now, trying to see if I can get Shiny Leaves before finishing the E4.

Also, I remembered my Daisuki Club password, so I grabbed two special PC wallpapers + gift egg.
Is it me, or is Daisuki Club getting slower to access each time I log in?

fastfro September 22nd, 2009 5:05 AM

Update: Wandered around in the grass and caught a bellsprout,ledybug,weedle, and a pidgey all outside violet city. current party is cyndaquil lvl 9, rattata lvl 7, bellsprout lvl 3, and pidgey lvl 5. I just walked into violet city. now I got to get back to work lol

kohei September 22nd, 2009 5:09 AM

My Ampharos has been smashing stones in Cianwood for the past 30 minutes or so.
The sinister gleam in his black, beady eyes seems to suggest he enjoys pulverizing granite.

It's only a matter of time until he moves from rocks to human heads.

I went to Pokémon Center Tokyo today and got the Pokéwalker course Yellow Forest where there's only Pikachu and they know some weird moves.
I just caught one that has shock wave. Shweet!

Yellow forest? Where is that?

The Fourteenth Doctor September 22nd, 2009 6:32 AM

Just beat Bugsy, easiest gym battle so far, all of her pokemon where 1HKO'ed by Croconaw's Ice Fang (Scyther was weak to Ice anyway due to it's Bug/Flying type combination), going to heal up then battle the rival, then i will head through the forest towards Goldenrod

My Team:
Croconaw Lv26

the HM slaves will no longer be mentioned due to them not gaining any levels

Update: Just battled the rival outside of Ilex Forest, easiest battle ever, this is what happened;

Rival sent out Gastly
Andy sent out Croconaw
Croconaw used Bite

Gastly fainted
Rival sent out Bayleef
Croconaw used Ice Fang
Bayleef Fainted
Rival sent out Zubat

Croconaw used Water Gun
Zubat fainted

Croconaw is now level 27

It's a Pokéwalker course unlockable through Mystery gift or whatever.


Just finished almost everything in Johto except for E4 and I realize my Pokémon wouldn't stand a chance against them. They're all Lv.36 or so. I've a balanced team but that's not gonna work. I would level them up in Victory Road if I wasn't so against killing/beating wild, innocent Pokemon.
