How does PorygonZ's abiltiy "Adaptive" work? It supposedly gives you an extra damage if using a move with the same type as it. (Sounds like STAB) But how much does it raise?

fatpappa, that whole second post was spam.
You shouldn't mini-mod either, Shiny Umbreon.

Adaptitive boosts any move that matches PorygonZ's type by 50%. So with Adaptive and STAB, PorygonZ's Normal attacks are doubled in power.

Well, in the JAP version, there were glitches galore! Like being able to get Sheimi, Areuseus, and Darkrai all in the original game. But Im pretty sure by the time the game is Americanized, theyll have removed all that by then. Even JAP versions you buy now will probably have glitches removed...

Just some more questions about that.

1-How is Silk Scarf's bonus applied. Is it added, too? (210%) Or it works by multiplying x1.1 ?
Correct me if the bonus isn't 10%.

2-How much does the Concentration Band raises physical moves' power? How it works together with STAB? (Again, multiplying or adding?)

Since when can you get Areuseus? Even if you use the E4 glitch its impossible without cheats since you have to go above tengan mountain. Also the glitches are already removed from the jap games I preordered diamond and that had the glitches bought pearl in november and glitches were removed.

There arent really glitches that you should worry about really. As long as you know what you are doing if you do decide to use the E4 glitch (got stuck in black 3 times, had to restart each time).

About the pokemon I would suggest getting Murkrow or Misdrevous depending on your version Sphinx (electric looking dog) is a good one to catch early in the game also. Don't worry about catching Buizel he sucks later in game. As for starters go for the grass one, he is the best overall. Penguin is to slow to hit anything, Fire monkey is good for being one of the three fire people you can get. Enough with my splurge.

White Lotus February 23rd, 2007 8:16 PM

Poison Spikes works just like regular Spikes correct. The only difference is the that <Steel> is immune instead of <Flying>.

That means the rest is set damage so all those 1/2 damage resistances to <Poison> doesn't matter right?

Pokemon D/P
 
When Pokemon Diamond And Pearl come out in Australia, will it just be the American version, or will the language be changed to Australian, ie; Mum instead of Mom?

I dont think it will. Its highly unlikely for that to happen. Also there has never been a difference like that in the older versions and such small changes due to the country's slang or use of terms probably wont be considered.

Kionae February 23rd, 2007 9:38 PM

Awesome. I wanted to know this, cos I downloaded it.

Paranoia February 23rd, 2007 9:40 PM

Ok!
 
Oh Good, so really theres no point in waiting for it to come in Australia and just order from EBAY

CHeSHiRe-CaT February 24th, 2007 10:49 AM

I was curious: since you can make secret bases in the Sinnoh Underground, is it possible to battle your friends there via WiFi, and actually gain experience, like you did in R/S/E after exchanging data?

slash106 February 24th, 2007 2:01 PM

Legendary creatures
 
This thread is just to talk about the new legendary creatures in d/p. Im not sure on these dudes so could u give me some info if you have any I want as much info as I cas get on all these creatures before I play for a sort of heads up any info would help.

slash106

slash106 February 24th, 2007 6:34 PM

Does anyone know anything about the two new guys at the cover the d/p because I havent learnt or heard anything about them and I really would so if you have any info plz tell me slash106.

I dont believe so. I haven't actually tested this but as your Pokemon dont come with you into the Underground and the Underground is more for games then battling.

Check about them in any Pokémon site like serebii.net. They are Dialga (Diamond) and Palkia (Pearl)

No. You can't get them by any means other than importing them from a GBA game, where you need a ticket.

I think it would be normal STAB (1.5x) then the additional 50% of that, giving you 2.25x damage, rather than just adding the bonuses. And the Scarf would be 1.1 x 2.25... which is... 2.475... i think.

Argh, i just forgot my question...

Oh yeah, what are Adherence Glasses? I see people use them as held items, but what do they do?
Thanks!

AquaLeaderMatt February 25th, 2007 3:19 AM

Are there any trainers in D/P that have Buuburn and Electivire? I need to complete the National Dex, but I can't unless I have seen those. I've beaten (nearly) every trainer in the game so far(I'm just about to go the 8th Gym) and I haven't found them. I'm guessing they will be late-game. are they?

Amoblaz February 25th, 2007 5:07 AM

I think you mean Sinnoh Dex, because there are no trainers that have buuburn or elekible.
You don't need those 2 in the dex to unlock anything

Volta. February 25th, 2007 8:57 AM

Yeah, youll want to find Elekid and Magby if youre travelling down that line... wait, what exactly does unlock the NatDex?
