This is probably a stupid question but can you actually catch Adamant/Jolly Starly in the wild? I've caught ~60 Starly and not a single one has had a Jolly or Adamant nature and my poor Shelgon is probably suffering concussion from headbutting trees all day :P

Thanks in advance!

yes its possible use a synchronizer to up the odds but it still comes down to luck

Is there any way to get Yellow Forest after the event is over, like an AR code?

You can unlock any PokéWalker route using an Action Replay code.

I was happy with my new shiny pokemon. If I train my pokemon to a new stage will it still be shiny at the adult pokemon.

If you mean, "Will it be shiny when it evolves?" then yes, yes it will still be shiny. c:

To Anyone who has had this question. I lost my original PokeWalker and purchased a new one off eBay. I had to reset my gamecart and sync the new one. While I did lose all my accumulated Watts and Steps taken, I did not lose any of my routes that I had gained, through getting enough Watts and Wi-Fi Event Routes. They were all there when I went to use the new one.

Yes, you have to clear the town of Team Rocket.

To re-battle Red, you have to re-battle the Elite Four and win. You can do this as many times as you want.

Lugia has a ridiculously low catch rate, so no matter what the situation is there's going to be a ton of ball-chucking involved. Get it to low HP, preferably with False Swipe if that's available yet, then just start tossing Dusk Balls. shoving a status effect on it would help as well, preferably sleep, freeze, or paralyse. That's just the obvious stuff, but I remember from when I got Ho-oh in HG it's not that hard to get them to low health, and just switch to a type that resists it's moves when you're ready.

What does this even mean?

I always figured it was essentially the same as a critical hit.

G-Virus July 23rd, 2010 8:28 AM

Maybe it means it's throwng a tantrum xD.

There's quite a few new things involved in HG/SS compared to its original games. You can search through the our FAQ & Known Information for more details or create a search though sites like Serebii.

You can have a rematch with Red actually. Every time you defeat the Elite Four you can climb back up Mt. Silver and battle Red again.

JakeyBoy July 23rd, 2010 10:00 AM

What's stopping you from battling him otherwise? I could have sworn in the originals you could come and go as you like.

ltsang July 23rd, 2010 12:18 PM

Hello. I recently start the game over and I end up in eucraking city. I need help battling a gengar. My pokemon that I'm using right now is bayleef and gastly. I also have cyndiqul and pichu right now. They are not trained yet though. Does anyone have any idea on how to beat morty? Thanks.

Christopher July 23rd, 2010 12:28 PM

go left out of Ecruteak and Catch a Miltank makes sure it has the Scrappy ability that should allow you to win pretty easy

Nope. You always had to beat the E4 first, even back in G/S/C.

idk. Personally, I find Normal-types the best Pokemon to use against Morty, like a Raticate/Croconaw duo with Bite/Crunch, which I used the first time I beat him. I've also seen someone use a newly-caught Stantler against Gengar, by using a Leer and Hypnosis combination on it until weak enough that Astonish works. Or even a Furret, which won't be affected by the Ghost moves, and can learn Shadow Claw, a TM move gained when you head towards Mahogany Town (which you can do now).

Really, you just need a Pokemon with high enough Special Defenses against Shadow Ball, and a move that affects Ghost-types. That's why Normals are my go-to type for that Gym.

Weavile05 July 23rd, 2010 12:46 PM

Does anyone know where I can SEE (not catch) a cyndaquil? I want to ask for one in the gts, except that I've never seen one or its evolved forms. Help?

JakeyBoy July 23rd, 2010 12:47 PM

I think you'll have to get one from a friend. That's the only way I saw it.
