    How many of you wish you could use the pokerader in HG/SS i know its in the pokewalker but its notlike the one in platiunm, or do you thinks its best kept in platinum, my opion i wish they had put it in then i wouldnt have to go through all the trading just to get em over th my SS C:
     
    vs seeker is better than battling people on the phone and it will be good if thay put the poke rader on HG/SS beause i want to chain pokemon to get shinys
     
    vs seeker ftw
    but i guess putting in the pokerader would have been alright =/
     
    lol, the pokeradar is terrible imo.

    I'm happy they didn't include it in HG/SS. I would have just gotten frustrated trying to use it.
    Also, they'd have to figure out some different system to keep track of how many pokes you've chained, since there's no Poketch in HG/SS.
     
    Should of kept the VS Seeker.

    As for the Radar, I never liked it, I used it a few times, but no, it ruins the fun of the game.
    Rare Pokemon and Shiny Pokemon are supposed to be hard to find.
    That's the point of their nature. They're rare and unusually coloured, so obviously using the PokeRadar to chain shinies and finding the rare pokemon of that area easier is no fun.

    I prefer the system FireRed had.
    No PokeRadar, and Vs Seeker.
    I prefer the 4th Gens graphics and new additions and I've always loved the PokeGear but no, I don't like the PokeRadar.
     
    I dont really have much of an opinion on the Pokeradar since I dont use it often, but I kind of like what Andrew Mckenzie said, shinies are supposed to be rare. Now everyone has one. So overall I'm not really affected much by its absence in HG/SS.

    HOWEVER I really do miss the Vs. Seeker for obvious reasons. I mean, the call system I guess is much more realistic, but then again it's the pokemon games we're talking about. If we really wanted to go "realistic" we would be feeding our pokemon daily.

    And speaking of the Poketch, I miss it too. The pedometer's usefulness for breeding is so grand. If only they gave some poketch apps to the Pokegear.

    So yeah, bring back the seeker, dont mind leaving out the radar, and if possible add some poketch features in.
     
    The phone numbers can be called any number of times during the trainer's designated times, so as far as I'm concerned, it works almost as well as the Vs. Seeker, and you don't need to charge it - just leave the trainer's route and make a call. So, I'm okay without the Seeker being included.

    As for the Pokewalker... Well, as a chainer, I can say that it would've been fun to see more chaining in HG/SS. However, I recognize the fact that most Pokemon you would be able to chain in HG/SS would be redundant from D/P/Pt. After all, almost every Pokemon that appears in grass already appears between those first three games. What would they do, start putting fish Pokemon in the grass for HG/SS?

    So, really, D/P/Pt for chaining, HG/SS for nostalgia fun times. Just deal with it and switch between the games whenever you want to do something specific.

    Chaining for shinys with the pokeradar is a pain in the @%$!
    I would always get some dumb pokemon to break my chair -.-

    i don't use the VS. Seeker much either.
     
    pokeraders are so cool. i wish we could have them in real life.
     
    No Poke Radar??

    Why isn't the PokeRadar in this game lol, how in the world are you suppose to get any shinies?
     
    yea it's annoying but you can use the pokerader on the pokewalker to get shinies I think
     
    Come again? Lol, it's kind of stupid, I mean how do they expect someone to get a Shiny Pokemon.
     
    Hmmm, this is true... Well, How do I use the PokeRadar anyway? lol

    it's nothing like the one in platinum you just need 10 watts or more and get a certain amount of steps and keep on using the pokerader, you will see 4 grass areas and they will come up with 1, 2 or 3 ! and click on the grass where see the !
     
    Well You were up for luck in all generation before so I guess.... Youre up for luck again :P
