Apricorns can be taken to Kurt in Azalea Town and he'll make custom Poké Balls for you (in other words, types of Poké Balls that cannot be bought in shops). Different coloured apricorns get you different types of Poké Balls.

They can also be used at the Pokéathlon Dome to make Aprijuice, a drink that will make your Pokémon better at certain aspects of Pokéathlon events.

Hope this helped :)

thanks, are these custom balls better than the ones sold in market?

Where can buy elixir/ether?

bobandbill January 8th, 2011 4:13 AM

Some custom balls are better in situations - for instance the heavy ball is terrible for light Pokemon but is great for trying to catch heavy Pokemon. Certainly worth getting as you encounter Apricorns all over the place and grow back daily.

You cannot buy Ether/Elixer in stores, unfortunately, but you can grow certain berries that restore PP via the berry grower if you happen to get them (maybe by say trading shards with people such as the guy in Violet City?)

You should be at least lvl. 60+ but yesterday I beat the 2nd Elite Four with very underleveled pokemon.

Here's what I beat it with:
Lvl. 55 Starmie
Lvl. 54 Scizor
Lvl. 52 Ampharos
Lvl. 52 Typhlosion
Lvl. 56 Absol
Lvl. 49 Crobat

It depends on what pokemon you choose and what kind of moves do you have that are useful in the Elite Four. 2 moves that helped me A LOT were Haze for Karen's pokemon and Will-o-Wisp for Lance's pokemon.

If you're referring to a WiFi four way tag-team battle, then unfortunately you can't. Which kinda sucks :\ You can only do that locally (DS Communications).

You can however battle tag-team in the Battle Tower over WiFi, if that's any consolation.

Bronzor probably joined you when you were walking. It happens all the time to me, so it's just natural. No worries, and you should be happy that now you have a Bronzor! :D

does anyone have a bagon they're willing to trade? or does anyone know a trainer in-game with a bagon or shellgon? thank you.

This isn't really the right place to ask for trades. Trying asking in the trading forum; you'll probably find someone willing to trade there. ^^;;

Also, I'm pretty sure Bagon or Shellgon don't appear anywhere in-game in HGSS aside from the Safari Zone.

Amore January 9th, 2011 4:14 PM

I think he meant an in-game trainer so he could view it and ask over GTS...

Sadly, all I know is that Lance has a Salamence.

Try the routes from Cinnabar Island to Fuchsia City, then up to Lavender Town...they seem to have good pokémon diversity among trainers.

This may be a right-off-the-bat question, but it sparked my interest a little. :P
If you were to encounter a standing legendary Pokemon, which just happens to be shiny, does the overworld sprite appear shiny?

Nope, it doesn't. D:
I tried RNG'ing for a Shiny Rayquaza, but it's just green. >_>
HOWEVER, you can walk with it and still is Shiny overworld-ly~~ <3 <3

A few months ago, while using my PokeWalker, I lost it an dit's nowhere to be found.

If I buy SoulSilver, can I link up the PokeWalker in it with my HeartGold (The One With The Lost PokeWalker) or will it only work for the game I bought it with?

chaos11011 January 10th, 2011 11:11 AM

It can link to your Heart Gold, don't worry. But once it's linked and you try to link it to your Soul Silver it will delete the PokeWalker Data.

I was wondering, where can I get the TM Sludge Bomb?

JakeyBoy January 10th, 2011 4:40 PM

I think the warden in the building north of Mahogany Town gives it to you.

After defeating Team Rocket in the Mahogany Town "base," the guard in the gatehouse in Route 43 will give you the TM.

In order to get the Bronzor to your game you need to select the receive gift option.

Bluerang1 January 11th, 2011 12:04 PM

Can I Mystery Gift a Pokemon? Like send via Mystery Gift? There's a "Receive from friend" option. Or is that just for items?

I don't think you can do that with Pokemon :( Only Pokemon I'm afraid.

Hey, I'm playing HeartGold version and I'm trying to get a Cyndaquil. I need to know how I can set up my wireless/wi-fi connection on my DS so I can trade with someone first though. Could someone please reply to this with a simple, but helpful guide on how to?

And after I'm done with that, is there anyone here who has a spare Cyndaquil I could have? I realize I'm being a little greedy and I hate that, but I'm pretty early in the game, and I don't really have a strong Pokemon to trade. But I guess I can catch a Pokemon and train it a little...

Also, I'd kind of like the Cyndaquil to be kind of weak, like probably level 5, or 9. Or anything in between.

Thanks.

1st, you need a WEP wireless router connection. If it's WPA, the DS won't read it. Then, go to the menu screen(the part where you click continue).
Scroll down and you should see a option called WiFi settings. Click that and folllow the instructions. You're good to go now! Then, head over to Goldenrod and go to the left. Find the GTS and connect. Then find a reasonable trade and trade your Pokemon for a Cyndaquil.

Hi. I went to Route 41 next where mayntine was at. I've been trying to surf and use my rods to catch it. I use the super rod and follow by the good rod. I still find nothing. I wanted to know has anyone found one in heart gold yet. If so do you have any tips on how to find it.

You can only get Mantine by surfing over route 41, not using a fishing rod.
