  • Basically my problem was:

    #1: my two Pokemon out in a Double Grass Double Battle fainted at same time.
    #2: Reason? Combination of:
    crit hit from Swadloon Razor Leaf + having Pokemon of similar level to the area (Swadloon 24, x2; my Sandile, 16 & Boldore 25)
    I've had this problem. Yes it's as bobandbill said. You need to switch the position of the fainted pokemon so that a pokemon that is alive is at the top screen.

    Some of the stones can be moved in another direction. If you move them in the wrong direction you have to leave the map and do it again.

    is there an easy way to find elekid in white? all i can find is rhyhorns in white forest :(

    The Pokemon you find in White Forest depeds on the trainers there, and to get more trainers you have to interact with other trainers through EntraLink, WiFi, or just Wireless. Talk to all of the trainers in White Forest, and if one of them is named Robbie you should be able to find Elekid.

    When you start a new game and pick your starter on B/W, can you tell from the sprite over the Poke Ball whether one is shiny (as in HG/SS), or do you have to choose one to tell (as in other games)? It's more or less irrelevant to me unless White goes on sale and until Gray comes out, but I'd like to know regardless. :)

    I'm pretty sure that you have to wait until you battle, but I'm not 100 percent possible.

    ^ ok thanks, I guess they don't then


    another quick question (lol I keep posting in this thread):
    where do I go in BW to see if my EVs are maxed out?

    There is a girl in Opelucid City that will tell you. I'm not sure what house she is in but she is on the first floor.

  • So I keep seeing people have more than one leftovers in their b/w moveset teams. Is there a way to get more or did they hack/trade?

    Right...this isn't really much of a question, but is it just me or are Deerling's fur starting to change colour?

    Deerling, along with Sawsbuck change their appearance to suit the weather. So the Autumn coat is orange, while say, the Summer ciat is green. People use these Pokemon to tell which season it is.

    I know that. I'm just asking if others' Deerling's fur has become pinkish too. But wait...isn't pink the Spring version?

  • Anyone else noticed this bug?

    I've just found a bug in my Original White [GER].

    After Zekrom leveled up to 57 without full health, his HP reached a maximum of 201. But during the battle it was shown in "100/200" while in the Pokémon menu it was indeed "100/201". After using a full restore in battle, its HP were refilled to "200/200" and in the summary "200/201"....

    After using a potion outside the battle and going in battle again, the bug disappeared and it had "201/201".

    Anyone else noticed that bug? (Should be rare I guess)

    I may upload the pictures I took later on. Actually I don't have my data-cable for my cellphone around :D

    Please ask your questions in our Simple Questions sticky in the future; but I'll go ahead and move this to the help thread for answers now.

    They probably hacked or traded, or they may have bought them from the Battle Subway, but I'm not sure if you can buy them there or not.

    I know that. I'm just asking if others' Deerling's fur has become pinkish too. But wait...isn't pink the Spring version?

    Every month the season changes, so at every month Deerling's form changes. Here is the spring Deerling:

    , but you shouldn't run into it for another three months. You might have found a shiny Deerling though:

    I have made my way to liberty island and i can battle Victini, but i can never seem to catch it :S, even when it has 1 hp and paralysed i still cant :( any help guys? :)

    Victini has an extremely low catch rate so you will just have to keep on trying. Buy a bunch of ultra balls or great balls and just thow them until you catch it. You can wait until night and use Dusk Balls, which will have a greater effect than Ultra Balls, but only at night. Save before you battle it so that if you run out of PokeBalls just reset and try again.

    No. It was definitely the spring form. Two trainers I fought had Deerling like that, but it's not even winter in the game yet...

    Liberty pass help?

    I made my way to Liberty island(or whatever). I then fought Victini, and due to me using a strong move, he died, and I just turned off my game. Now I can't take the boat trip back, and the game won't let me get the Liberty pass...

    Help would be appreciated, thanks.
