i'm trying to soft reset a chikorita on my Heartgold and I would like to know if you can see that the pokemon is shiny in the pokeball before you choose it, also where should i save it so the soft reset works.
Thanks

Yup, u can see it before when prof shows you the 3 pokeballs. Save just before u go and talk to him.

Indeed. Just as long as you saved before you chose the Pokemon, you'll be fine.

Union Room is where players who can connect meet with one another. You can do a variety of interactions with one another, like trade, battle, mix records, and even just talk to one another. This page has the basics of what the Union Room is and what can happen in one.

I have level 51 houndoom and I'm planning on using it against the mewtwo. But I'm having a difficult time training him. Which gym leader should I battle? Houndoom is half dark and half fire. Please help me. Thanks

Amore August 24th, 2010 12:54 PM

Bugsy, Erika, Sabrina, Jasmine. Although watch out for the latter two, they may/will run water and rock-types.

Weavile05 August 24th, 2010 12:58 PM

If you are using Houndoom, then you do not need to train it because Mewtwo's only attacking move is Psychic type, meaning it can't touch you.

A level 50 won't even bruise a level 70. The fact that he's using Houndoom suggests he is already aware of the Dark immunity.

FYI, I'd take it to the league and shove an Exp Share on it, AND keep it at the top of the party using the switch-out trick. In fact, Houndoom alone should do pretty well against just the first E4 Member.

Weavile05 August 24th, 2010 1:11 PM

Honestly, that might be better if it can't hurt it too much. I've seen on here somewhere that somebody caught a Mewtwo with a level 46 Sneasel. Trust me, it's possible.

What is the best all around Pokemon to you guys?

I am using Feraligatr and Compared to my old Typlosion at the same lvl on my Gold Version, my old Typ. totally dominates compared to my Fer.

What moves should a lvl 70 Fer. know to fight against mostly all types of pokemon?

I am thinking of resetting and picking the Typ. to see how it compares.. I have already beat the game in the second day of playing, but I still think it should have been a tad quicker on some Gyms.

What can I breed the Typ. with to get some good moves also? and when I breed it what lvl will the Pokemon be? lvl 1?

Also, I am still a mega noob to how to trade and what not, how do I get Charmander, Bulbasaur and all them oldies on my HG version???

A Sneasel could know Beat-Up and use the attack stat of the other Pokemon in the party. With it's own moves it would probably run out of PP way too quickly.

But I dunno, maybe you're right. In fact, maybe later I'll take out a level 50 Sneasel, go for Mewtwo and see what happens.

Amore August 24th, 2010 1:47 PM

It will be lv.1

Typhlosion is a special attacker, so...

breed it to know Extrasensory (from Vulpix/Ninetales or Nuzleaf/Shiftry).

Then teach it hidden power. Soft reset for either Grass or Rock.

Get a tm for Focus Blast.


Then you just need to teach if Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Eruption/Overheat and you've got the moveset for a competitive pokemon.

Of course, you need IVs.....and competitive ones don't usually run Extrasensory, it's just a neat Hg/Ss exclusive :D

So, in summary, you will need:

- TM52 Focus Blast
- Female Cyndaquil or evolution
- Male Vulpix/Nuzleaf or evolution knowing Extrasensory
- TM10 Hidden Power

Get a Modest nature, definitely. And that would be my ideal Typhlosion.

__________________________________________________________

On Feraligatr, you should have Waterfall/Ice Punch/Superpower/Crunch

Earthquake and Dragon Claw are options, but the above set is pretty good. Hits, for super-effective:

Ghost, Psychic, Fire, Ground, Rock, Normal, Steel, Ice, Dark, Dragon, Flying, Grass.

12 out of 17 types. Obviously, not many pokemon are pure-typed.....but it still gives monstrous coverage.

You have two choices, you can trade (either over the GTS or with a friend) or you can use the Pal Park and transfer your Pokes from FR/LG/R/S/E.

Cerulean Cave, same place it was in Gen 1 and 3. You have to have beaten Red though.

HalfFrozen August 24th, 2010 1:57 PM

Hmm, I see, Okay well I bought a hacked Emerald version from EB Games 2 weeks ago and it has 200 Master Balls in the Ball Pocket, is there a way to transfer all those in batches of x99 or do I have to make a pokemon hold them individually?

Incorrect. I captured mine beforehand, even using it to defeat him. You just need all 16 badges.

Individually. Good luck on that one, mate. Go hunt down all the legends and 100 Feebas....you could get lots of trades for the ever-rare Feebas....

Emerald Game play sucks compared to the style I like.

Amore August 24th, 2010 2:13 PM

Why buy it? :P

But yes, individual items can be transferred attached to pokemon. Sadly, there's no specific item transfer method, as they made Pal Park as a mini-game, not like Time Capsule. However there weren't Gen I items anyway..

I personally think the only problems are the level,
level them around 45-55 (the higher the better, obviously)
I suggest you to evolve your Haunter as well!!

PokeTrainer Rob August 24th, 2010 8:47 PM

I'm sure it's the same for every game but since I'm getting SS I thought it'd be best to ask here. My question is how many letters do you get to name your rival?

You can name your rival only seven letters, that includes symbol as well...

I had my Typlosion at lvl 56ish and was able to defeat the entire E4 with him and 2-3 fillers to regain full health.
