how long did it take you? my pichu is lvl 32 now...

Don't pay attention to its level. The level up rate in DR is much faster than the original game, that's what make it seems so slow. If you're desperate to know when it'll evolve, just use a tool to view its happiness.

How do I go back to the dark rising hq? I've just beaten N and I need to relearn some moves.

I used a save state to redo that and just said I was ready right away. Idk why you can't fly

Hey all, my pokemon won't evolve, I don't know if it's a storyline thing or not, since I haven't left the first town, but my level 50 Bagon wouldn't evolve into Shellgon, I got the message that pops up after hitting the B button (that message that goes ...???) and then the evolution screen disappeared, anyone know what's going on?

He? Are you playing DR2?
'cause this is caused by not obtaining National Dex... I don't think it happened in DR1... in DR2 it's the most common bug, though.
Can your other Pokemon evolve?

cant decide my team >.< any advice?
atm i got:
Salamence
Staraptor
Allakazam
Arcanine
Ferrothorn
Politoed

Pokemon im considering:
Jellicent
Victini
Metagross
Bronzong
Skarmory
Tyranitar

i havent gotten to these ones yet, but im most likely gonna replace Staraptor wit Skarm. what im really considering is removing allak + arcan for Victini and either metagros or bronz, prolly meta. idk tho... i need and electic type in there too >.< lol too many awesome choices!?! my politoed is drizzle so im thinkin of goin for rain team, but im not 100% sure what im doing lol

also... what are the rules in this game? i mean, what generation is the battle rules in, like all fire attacks are special? etc. so gen 3 rules wit gen 5 pokes? need this answer quickly, picking out which nature victini. im thinkin modest, timid or naive. assuming this is gen 3 rules?

Okay story, but trainers are way too unbalanced and theres barely options to train. Except if youre happy with having to battle 40 pokemon before gaining one level.

Is there any way for me to get my Eevee to evolve into either an Umbreon or Espeon? I've leveled up like 3 Eevees to level 80 and none have evolved.

i believe a moon stone does it, u can buy them for free at one of the first few towns, forgot which :/

i guess ur talking to me? but i like this game ALOT because its actually challenging, literally it seems like all the legit pokemon games are faceroll easy for me at least, u can literally grab any pokemon and smash the game with minimal effort/skill. with this game its actually a struggle. then theres the storyline, legit games = written by nine year old? this ones actually interesting... what?! they kidnapped my dad!!?! its on!!!

and a couple tips for anyone playin this game:

1. theres and official walkthru on the first page, dont even have to download, just click the link then click view document.

2. theres a page on all the special evolutions, ie friendship or trade, i cant post the link, but how i found it was googling "pokemon dark rising politoed" second link down.

3 this is the most important and helpful tip, increase the speed on ur emulator for grinding! throw a few exp shares on ur pokes, lead wit ohko poke and grind out a few levels in a couple minutes. easy, only drawback = now playing legit pokemon seems sooo sloooow

oh and u can get xp shares from the starter pokes that are rare finds in nearly all areas

Sorry if this has been answered already. I am playing on gba4ios on an ipad. My problem is that I am playing DR1 and I can't get past the karate trainer in dragon valley. Every time i go near him the game freezes. I am playing on an ipad so I'm unable to patch it with a new rom, unless there's an ips patcher that I'm unaware of. I've downloaded the (complete rom) at the beginning of this thread but gba4ios won't open it. I got the original rom that I've been playing from coolrom. Is there a fix for this problem without losing my save data?
