Yeah, mainly for two reasons: Two players, not four, and 2D graphics, not 3D, except for some attack animations, though.

Yeah, which is like CSS (Which I play) you can still play on dial up because all it is basically doing is sending locations of the opposite players, that's why it doesn't require BB.

So how would you browse the GTS? I havn't seen anything on that yet... x.x

And also, if somone put a Dalgia up for trade and I havn't seen one, I can still trade for it [If I have the asking Pokemon], right?

Nope, you need to have seen it, You can see it in pearl by talking to an old lady at a building, I forget where but it is possible to view 150 of the sinnoh pokemon out of 151. #151 is Manaphy.

Where do you see Stunky and Cranidos? Those are the only two besides Dialga that I need to trade for. Everything else I'll catch / transfer over from GBA myself.

On marriland.com, there's a walkthrough and one of the chapters is a list of all the sinnoh pokemon and where you can see them.

A trainer in the Lost Tower has stunky which is before the 3rd gym, and the first gym leader has cranidos.

About the WFC.....
 
So I have a quick question:
Does the WFC support random wifi battles similiar to Mario Kart DS or can we only play people with shared friend codes?

YellowFlash April 12th, 2007 3:10 PM

Thanks for the quick response. Well that kinda sucks as i was hoping to play online for replay value. Oh well better get some friends to buy a ds then.

Isn't there a place called the Battle Tower WiFi Room, where it is actually possible to battle random people?

No. You either use a wireless router, or a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector. (you need to have a PC for the latter)

MetafreakJT April 18th, 2007 5:47 PM

All you need is the wireless router and you should be fine. The instructions for wi-fi can be found on the nintendo website.

MetafreakJT April 18th, 2007 6:26 PM

Even with ALL the hackers, it rules.

About the DS WiFi adaptor...
 
Not sure where this would go, so I posted it here. Does it require Windows XP? Because I'm running Windows 2000 and I'll be pretty bummed if I have to walk down to my local McDonalds just to play online.

That's precisely what Hiroshi Sotomura mentioned - there's no other way to battle random people without having to download their teams.

I'm pretty sure it's capable of running on Windows 2000; that is, if the program itself doesn't have any sort of OS detection itself.

piplupbetterthanturwigandchimchar April 21st, 2007 6:34 AM

It just requires a wireless connection. You can only request pokemon you have seen, and with Pal Park you can only upload 6 Pokemon a day, and they stay in Pal Park if you don't catch them that time.
