No, it's saved to your game card. If and when you start a new game file on the same physical, carbon game, it will still work.

In other words, you have no worries. ~♪

Actually, I started over a new save file once. I had to reset my Pokewalker to get it to work again by pressing Down+X+L on the Pokewalker screen.

Good rod is found in Olivine City. Super is found on route 12. Only HM you need in HGSS Victory Road is Strength. Rock Smash for bonus items.

Ah, I thought there might be something else to it...

But! I stand by my previous comment - the Pokewalker will still work. ~♪

It will work, but if you reset the game it won't let you use the Pokewalker with your new/current game. Basically, if you reset the game, you are going to need to reset the Pokewalker too.

How do you get the shiny Kanto starters?
 
I was wondering if you can just look at the picture and see if they're shiny, like the Johto starters?

OR if you actually have to add them to your team by picking them up and looking at them.

If someone could post an actual fact, and not some guess because I have been just looking at the picture for the past 4 hours.

Thanks.

Berry pot mechanics
 
heya hows it goin peoples...

ok i searched the forums and found no discussions on this subject.
how does the berry pot actually work?
now i tried planting berrys and adjusting the DS callendar... no beans (i mean berries)... next i tried adjusting just the clock... nothing.

so what clock is it running off of?
i just want a heap of stirus and leppa berries :P it would be nice to heal my pokebuddies up and keep em running for those long shiny hunts.

so my question is this, how do you manipulate the berry pots?

You see the pokemon's picture before you select it, so you can see if it's shiny before selecting it. Believe me I tried it for a freaking week and gave up. I sometimes still wish I hadn't but I am far now and enjoy my team.

Also I have a question of my own. Any tips to make a pokemon happy besides the soothe bell and haircut brothers, already been there and done that for tonight. I am trying to evolve my eevee from Bill to Umbreon before level 16 when Umbreon learns pursuit.

Are there any in-game trainers with Chikorita (or any of its evolutions)? I started with Cyndaquil, so obviously my rival isn't going to have Chikorita... and I'd like to be able to get one off the GTS without having to get someone's friend code (which means I have to see it in my Pokédex). Thanks!

As far as I know, there isn't a way in-game to see the third and final (depending on the starters chosen) in-game. Although in Viridian City's Trainer House, the one Ace Trainer has all the G/S/C starters fully evolved, so you'll see Meganium there.

Hey
I have 1000 steps on my pokewalker and I still can't get 3 !!! is it rare to get it, i'm looking for the flying Pikachu

Wings Don't Cry April 19th, 2010 1:37 AM

You need a minimum of 10000 steps for Flying Pikachu, even then it is still very rare.

yea I have more steps then 10000

Wings Don't Cry April 19th, 2010 1:40 AM

Well you missed out a zero and that's still 2% chance of finding one.

fishyfins April 19th, 2010 3:08 AM

whats the best way to raise money on heartgold, pre Ho-oh, once all trainers have been defeated?

Fire Wolf April 19th, 2010 3:13 AM

fishyfins, elite 4 would be your best bet, but since it isn't pre-Ho-Oh in HG, and since all trainers have been defeated, I guess having 3-5 pokemon with Pickup in your team would help, as you can sell the items they pick up.

Wings Don't Cry April 19th, 2010 3:16 AM

If you haven't beat the Kimono Sisters(probably have) you should go to them with an Amulet coin since they'll each give like 9000(more or less) a battle and with 5 of them that will be 45k right there.

I recall there may be a guy in the Lighthouse you can rematch (a gentleman Alfred) - those trainers tend to carry some $$$. Checking up, you can call him as often as you want on tuesdays between 10am-8pm.

Merged with the Help thread in case people have other suggestions. Anyways, the things with berries is that you can't change time with them - so much as a small adjustment kills them all and means you can't grow them for a day (or two). They were aware of people trying to speed up the berry growth, I suppose. =P You'll just have to grow them the old-fashioned way without cheating. =P

I've got a growlithe of lv 35. It already has Flamethrower. Should I evolve it or should I let it learn Heat Wave or Flare Blitz first. Even though it won't learn extremespeed as an arcenine then.

Make it learn heat wave/flare blitz.....then evolve it ..use the move relearner to teach arcanine ES....hope that helped

Oronare April 19th, 2010 6:19 AM

Well my thread on it got locked before I could reply to someone elses reply....so i'll ask here.

In the safari zone, where is the meadow? I have looked around for ages and there isn't any area which looks like the meadow pic someone posted, and no matter which section i go in, I cant seem to find jigglypuff.

yeah it helped. I didn't know it could learn those moves through the move relearner. I thought it only learned the starting moves.
