You can battle in the Nimbasa City stadiums. The levels of the opposing Pokemon there depend on where you are in the story. However, you can only battle the trainers in them once a day.

Yes. Nimbasa City's Big Stadium and Small Court. You get lots of money there. You get most money from athletes. And if you have Amulet Coin you get double money. It's fast way to get money and exp.

Yeah, Platinum recommends the stadiums in Nimbasa, also you can battle a Trainer at the Ferris Wheel that changes depending on the season and your character's gender.

There's also two Ace Trainers in Opelucid City who you battle in a Rotation Battle (Black) or Triple Battle (White), one of the Ace Trainers uses Simisear, Simisage and Simipour while the other uses Mienfoo, Pawniard and Elgyem.

And on Marvelous Bridge, if you have tough Pokemon, Ace Trainer Glinda can also battle you in a Triple Battle (Black) or Rotation Battle (White).

There are also some Trainers in Black City/White Forest but if you're playing Black, Black City's Trainers can be battled every day.

And after beating the Elite Four and Team Plasma you can battle Cheren at Victory Road.

Also, after beating the Elite Four a second time as well as Champion Alder, you can battle Bianca in Nuvema Town on weekends.

Use a Pokemon holding an Amulet Coin or Luck Incense to double your rate of money earned.

I realize this might not be the best place to ask this, but it seems like these forum mods like to censor threads. Either way, it is a quick question!

Is there any benefit to buying a new pokemon game (from Emerald-Black/White), or are used games just as good? The main reason I ask is that more and more games have online content that is only unlocked to the first person that registers online/etc, and I wanted to make sure that wasn't the case here.

I suppose not, but I always buy my games new, or download them(shame on me). I've never bought an used one, because you have a great chance the user has hacked it with some creepypasta-like content. So I think the best is to buy! ;D

If they hack it, and have a corrupted save file, won't everything be erased and reset when you create a new game?

How do i save a move from being forgotten when my pokemon is in the day care?

Yeah but you gotta be careful. ~A lot of them are hacked.

Defeatist (ability)

Defeatist (ability) - Why does Archen have this ability? It drastically weakens him.


What makes Archen a good choice despite this ability or is it just a very weak pokemon? i.e. does he get stronger stats, or better abilities?

Archen and Archeops have excellent (Special) Attack and Speed stats, as well as a pretty good offensive move pool. They were most likely given that ability because GameFreak didn't want them to rip everything in sight to shreds. Also, Defeatist is the sole ability of Archen and Archeops.

Klutz


whats the benefit of stopping the effects of items on my pokemon

Question 2:

Is there a place where people post their IDs? so we can all trade with each other? I wouldn't mind adding a community of people rather then my 3 friends i know in real life with this game.

why would i choose Klutz for a pokemon?

The move Entrainment, which the Buneary line learns along with having Klutz as one of their potential abilities, gives the enemy the user's ability; that is, the foe could be given Klutz and be unable to use their own item.

Also, say you wanted to pass an enemy a negatively-affecting item (ex. sticky barb) without it activating on yourself.
This can also work defensively, say if the enemy used Trick or one of various thieving moves; I don't think anything with Klutz can learn Trick itself though.

Those are the only positive uses for Klutz I can think of. Note that abilities are not meant to be solely positive, for instance Klutz on a Golett is just pointless.

3d

does the 3ds make pokemon black or white graphics better and pop out in 3d
