I remember reading somewhere that they took measures to prevent people from shaking it for steps. It's recorded as "steps" and not "shakes" for a reason.

75% of Pokemon gamers use cheats and specially made codes to make their pokemon battle-worthy. If you are one of the 25% percent that level their Pokemon up legally, put this in your signature.

No, you shook it wrong. Clasp your hand together in a bubble and then shake your PokeWalker. That way, it'll get a lot of steps, 5 minutes gave me about 20-30W with it, about 400-600 steps.

Anyway, mine is glitched, I sent my Cyndaquil to train and now it never learned Ember.

Yeah it works. If you run/walk, you'll get some steps and good watts.

It records steps as opposed to shakes rather accurately. If anything, it gives you more steps than you take.

xD haha! That's hilarious. ^_^ With my luck though, it would go flying across the room.

Yea; steps are much more accurate!! I just put the clip on mine and walked around the house...so much easier!!!

Your luck isn't as bad as mine.

I have a disease (and I just got it at MIDNIGHT), I'm somewhat blind, I fell down the stairs, nearly was run over by a car when I went to get some fresh air, and I almost dropped a cup of really hot tea on my ingrown-toenailed foot.

Now that is bad luck and we're off-topic.

Now, the PokeWalker hates me as well.

...indeed, that is rather unlucky and offtopic. =P

Anyways as said it has measures against shaking it, so you have to either be inventive/'shake' it a different way (throwing + catching works well if done right actually), or just walk with it as you're meant to. =P

Seeing that's the answer, closed. Any questions, use the Help thread please.
