Have you taken your Pokemon out of the walker since you started?

Every time you put a Pokemon back in the walker, it makes the random choice of either Surfer or Flier from Group A. If you haven't taken it out and put it back in at all, then it'll never change from what you had in the first place.

Now, if you HAVE been swapping in and out, then... Well, I'm not sure what to tell you. That's really just bad luck, and you need to keep trying, I guess.

Tyros pretty much said it all there. You must remove your Pokémon from the walker for you to change which Pokémon you run into, this case either a Flying or Surfing Pikachu. You pretty much understand the rest as it is, but other than that you it's up to luck as well.

Anyway, please use the HG/SS Help Thread for all questions. This way on-going discussion won't get pushed back to previous pages.
