3rd Gen Advance Generation Question & Answer

thanx for that.
so hows everyone getting Flawless IV's so easy ?
im calling them out and saying CHEAT DEVICES !
it's ok, your secrets are safe with me RoFFLz

im not to convinced. not that im saying RnG is hacking, im saying their using cheat devices :p

im to stupid for this stuff. its like rocket science n stuff :(

so if someone has the smarts could they figure this out for me ?

say i catch a Timid Ghastly and i want it to have Hidden Power Fire

then what should it's stats look like ?

or is that to vague ?

im kinda dumb when it comes to the Calculators too :( i am having a hard time grasping the whole IV thing or the RnG stuffs. i need a tutor lol.

i saw something about Pairing on this site. does anyone with expertise in Gen III want to pair with me and teach me a thing or two?
c'mon im a sweet gal ^_^

Hidden Power is determined by IVs, not by the stats you see. So...you can't just look at the stats and know what the IVs are and know "oh, this one has HP Fire." Going after certain HP in gen III just seems pointless really, unless you can RNG in that generation. And the only way you're gonna know your IVs is by using an Action Replay, because to my recollection, no one in gen III will tell you about your Pokemon's IVs.

In Emerald, at the Battle Frontier, there is a man who tells you a bit about your Pokémon's IVs, but it isn't anywhere near enough to find a Hidden Power from.

If you can't grasp the IV stuff, then don't bother. Same with RNG. Honestly, I don't see why you ask for help if you can't apply the answers that are given to you. And this isn't the place to find a pair.

WTF attitudy much ? not even cool, damn. just trying to ask for some help and you gotta go get your panties all in a bunch ?
is there anyway to ignore members on here ?

but anyway, here's an easy question for you. i know you can migrate poké's from Gen III to Gen IV, but theres no way to migrate lets say a Roselia from S/S to L/G ?

Every time I plug in the cartridge, it gets past the gba "ba-ding!" screen, and shows a white screen. It used to work if i warmed the cartridge in my hand a little while, but now it refuses to boot at all. I've cleaned the contacts with 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol and a q-tip, nothing works. Do I have to get a new one, (won't be much lost, I was only at the fifth gym) or is there some way to fix this?

I've looked it up a bit and it seems like it's a problem commonly had with emulators, but I'm playing on the cartridge.

Websites where purchases can be made for Official Pokemon Gamer Guides?

To be exact I'm looking for Official Pokemon Gamer Guides for Ruby & Sapphire Versions and Firered & Leafgreen Versions.

I'd like to be able to purchase them New if at all possible with the risk of damages with Used copies.

Not really a Pokéquestions but is there a difference between Nintendo Power Official Guides and Prima Publishing Official Guides?

Which one is better if so?

True. I really dunno what to tell you about the battery though. :/ That's a pain that you did go through that trouble and it didn't work. Hopefully someone that understands the batteries better than me will come along and see your question. Also, you might consider asking in the Video Gaming forum. I don't know if there were other GBA games that needed a battery replacement, but chances are, there might be some more people that know about it in that forum. I might be wrong, but it's worth a shot, right? Just to be safe though, when you post, make sure you mention I sent you since I thought you'd have better luck there. It's still video game related so yeah. Hope you can get an answer.

Thanks, I will see what I can find out.

I just want to mention that I am experiencing this exact same issue as bookworm29, having manually replaced the internal battery in my Ruby Version a few days ago. This particular copy of Ruby has been patched for the Berry Glitch via Pokemon Colosseum since before the internal battery ran dry. I haven't found any documentation online what's supposed to happen when you replace the internal battery, but as far as I've observed I've gotten back most of my in-game time-related functionality (mostly tested Shoal Cave) but not berry growing. I'm annoyed by this and trying to figure out whether there's a fix but R/S battery replacements seem to be relatively rare and the aftermath almost completely undocumented.

Same type attack bonus

Hello guys can anyone help me i want to know something about STAB. I know how this work but i need to know about holding items and if they increase and by how much they can stack with STAB? Example I have Charizard and i use Flamethrower with him, now because he is Fire Type he gain 50% increase in move power that is basic, so his attack power will be 142. Now what i want to know will Charcoal holding item increase power by 10%. That way his move power will be around 152 that's devastating.

Flamethrower will have 156.75 power.

95 x 1.5 x 1.1 = 156.75
