Trading Soulsilver Pokemon to White

When I try to download the PokeTransfer to my SoulSilver game I get an error message saying "No compatible Game Card is inserted. Please turn off the power and insert a compatible Game Card before you retry Poke Transfer". What do I do to fix it...?

You'll have to be more specific about what you're doing. Are the cartridges the same language? Are both of them legit, and in different DSes?

I believe Sky Drop is also banned, as well as Chatot with Chatter. If neither of those are the problem, try listing your team here and we can see where the problem is.

I'm using an emulator to play White, so I do not have access to wi-fi. However, I do have PokeSav. Does anybody know the Map ID for Liberty Garden so I can go there with PokeSav? The Map ID is the number that goes in the MAP box in the Location section of PokeSav.

I'm thinking of using an electric pokemon this go around, is the zebra good? or should I wait for the spider?

I used Zebstrika and it worked out pretty well. The spider would be alright too though, ingame as long as you level it up it should work just fine.

I'm wondering, is Hydreigon considered to be an uber in online rules?

Online rules being Nintendo rules, or Smogon rules? Either way, I know it's not considered Uber in Smogon and I'm nearly 100% certain it's not banned online by the legendary/event/hack clauses by Nintendo.

That basically means that you are done for the day. I've heard that this is done so that people don't just spend their entire time in the dream world just entering and reentering the island of dreams. In any case, just wake up your Pokemon and wait until the next time you can enter DW. It should be fine then.

There's no finalized official ubers list in Comp-Battling as of yet, but also note that DrizzleSwim and Moody are also banned. Plus, using any Evasion+ moves or items and OHKO moves are in bad form.

No, not the hour is up. After so many sparkles and Pokemon encounters, you just don't see any more Pokemon. Usually this happens to me around 4-5 times through but it varies.

...wait wat.

you see more Pokemon if you rack up more points? wat?

Moving this to quick questions so the actual thread isn't cluttered.

But yes - once you bypass 7500 points, a whole lot of new Pokemon and items start appearing in each area. :3 If you want to know the specifics, Bulbapedia and Serebii have it pretty well covered. Apparently the same occurs after 10,000.

just making sure, sunce I haven't seen them yet. there are TMs for Earthquake and Flamethrower, right?

Earthquake is TM26, found in Relic Castle. Flamethrower is TM35 and found in the Abundant Shrine. Both are post-game, so that could be why you haven't seen them yet. (:
