Kavii ^ THAT is very interesting. In the Pokewalker diary, if my Scizor had let several Pokemon get away on a certain day, the diary will note that my Scizor is "sulking", which basically means he isn't too happy.
On another note, I've found that encountering !!! Pokemon is much more common on certain routes than others. I'd hardly find any !!! in the Yellow Forest, but found several !!! in Night's Sky Edge. |
Do you think/know if your Scizor lost a Happiness level because of what happened?
I've had Pokemon sulk also and where I can't remember if that happened with my Eevee or not, I know for sure he lost Happiness. People keep telling me that Pokemon won't/can't lose Happiness in the Pokewalker, but something sure happened to my Eevee to make him unhappy while in the Pokewalker. Maybe it was similar - 'losing' a lot of battles in the Pokewalker and not finding a lot of things? |
...you know, that just may be in it. I remember reading some conflicting stories about Pokemon used purely on the Pokewalker and then levelled up once outside of it (like Golbat) which sometimes evolved from happiness, and sometimes didn't even though apparently it 'should have' ben happy enough by then. It may also be affected by having it in the Pokewalker but not walking much for some time? That could explain the strangeness regarding watt-finding as well...
Obviously, more testing is needed! XD |
I'm currently keeping a mini-journal on how my various Pokewalker activities have turned out and when I get more data, I'll gladly share it/post it here to help contribute to the data pool. :)
One question though in relation to the Pokewalker data at Serebii: I know that all the possible Pokemon that can be caught in the Pokewalker are parted into groups (A, B, and C) and that there is a percentage chance of running into them at different intervals, but how do you read the data below it? For example: Group C for Yellow Forest. Underneath the two possible Group C Pikachus where it says 0+ Steps, there is another table cell right below that lists a bunch of other percentages. What exactly is that table displaying? |
The percentages and step requirements are actually extracted from the game and calculated for each item/pokemon's inclusion using simple mathematics. If you found a TM after only 31 steps, then it seems to us that you had already gained X amount of steps for that day. The step count is in all courses. It doesn't reset when you change course
For the percentages below; When you send a Pokémon to Pokéwalker, it chooses 1 Pokémon from Group A, one from Group B and one from Group C Each Pokémon has a set percentage for rarity. However, this then changes as the amount of steps you have taken increases The rarity is then recalculated based upon the rarity of the Group B Pokémon chosen when enough steps have been made to make it appear. It is then recalculated when you reach the step requirements for the Group A Pokémon For Refreshing Field for example, Doduo has a 70% rarity while Kangaskhan has a 50% rarity. This is only active after 2000 and 3000 steps respectively The Nidoran's have 75% rarity after 500 steps. But if Doduo is selected, their rarity is 22.5% and with Kangaskhan it's 37.% after the step requirements unlock them Then we have the Group C Pokémon Doduo Selected; 0+ Steps: 100% 500+ Steps: 25% 2000+ Steps: 7.5% Kangaskhan Selected 0+ Steps: 100% 500+ Steps: 25% 3000+ Steps: 12.5% There are then some which get complicated when the Group B Pokémon have different rarities which give the Group C Pokémon 4 different rarity possibilities such in Blue Lake; Poliwag/Shellder 0+ St: 100% 500+ St: 8% 4000+ St: 3.2% Poliwag/Krabby 0+ St: 100% 500+ St: 28% 4000+ St: 11.2% Dratini/Shellder 0+ St: 100% 500+ St: 8% 5000+ St: 5.6% Dratini/Krabby 0+ St: 100% 500+ St: 28% 5000+ St: 19.6% For Yellow Forest, since all the Pokémon are Pikachus, they're labelled by their individual unique move |
