Eh...I don't AR, I don't suggest it...but it's cheap and you seem like you want to, so go for it =)

Like everyone's said, though, be honorable in your dishonor ;)

j/k, just make sure your opponents/trade partners know you've hacked.

Okay. I'm planning on getting an AR as well, but I've got one concern. What are the system specifications for the software that it comes with to download the codes? I've only got Windows 2000 ME, so that could pose a problem. :xxx

not sure, because all i have is XP. it says you have to have XP, but it might work with either 2000 or ME (though i don't like the fact that you have ME because ME sucks big hairy monkey...i'll stop there, lol). but, Wal-Mart, $20. i wouldn't imagine it would be too horribly far away. i've got a CodeBreaker, too, but i don't really use it for Pokémon anymore. lol

well since I live in England 10 dollers is nothing, 5 quid, and thats REALLY easy to get (a cholate bar is like 50p (1/2 a pound)) so I would say go for it, there about what you would call 40-50 $ over her ein England, just get it but dont use it for things like illegal EV distribution, perfect IVs etc, that spoils the game.

i wouldn't say it spoils the game as much as the fact that it spoils it for anyone that you battle online.

I'm planning to get one for myself as a late I-suck-because-I-have-no-real-life-friends birthday present. I'm justy doing it to get TMs and mass clone my Shinies for trading. I also need Black Sludge and the Power Items... For fun, I'll probably enter the Shaymin/Darkrai event locations so they appear on my Town Map,as I did in FR/LG for the Sevii Islands for the simple fact that I have a problem with having an incomplete map.

No Pokemon modifiers or hacks, though. Only n00bs would use those.

Not to mention the last dungeon in Izuna:Legend of The Unemployed Ninja is a b**** to pass DX

To bad the most fun code (walk/run through everything) damages your game...
lol, I once entered Amity Square with no Pokémon behind me by going BEHIND the lady in the counter.
Since Noctowl was the first Poke in my Party she said that my Noctowl was adorable! :D

It is fun to use it, but as long you don't use it on pokemon you are going to use in official battles. I have an AR, I freely admit that. For $10 that's a good deal, I'd buy it to have fun with. My brother used WTW code to get legendary pokemon like Darkrai, and Shaymin. So really it's up to you.

yeah, but you can still get one at Wal-Mart for $20. they're still cheap there. and they've got D/P codes to begin with. lol and i've got an easier way to add codes. copy your Pokemon Diamond or Pokemon Pearl Cheats into the file (on the ARCM) "My Custom Code List". then, go to "C: \Program Files\Datel\Action Replay Code Manager\local_codelists", right click "default_codelist", "Open With", and open with the "Notepad". then, you can add your codes that way, in this format:

________________<cheat>
________________________<name>Catch Any Pokemon</name>
________________________<codes>94000130 FDFF0000 B21C4D28 00000000 B0000004 00000000 94000130 FEFF0000 00000890 01D8005D D0000000 00000000 DA000000 00000892 C0000000 0000000B 0002461C 00000001 D7000000 00024620 DC000000 00000006 D2000000 00000000 </codes>
________________</cheat>

there's no space in the "C...yada yada" and you don't use underlines, but hit the "Tab" button. Three times for <name> and <codes> and then two for <cheat> and </cheat>. i hope you all find this useful! :D (maybe i should put this in the Diamond/Pearl official CodeBreaker/Action Replay thread)

that makes two of us. except i have one. lol but, like i said. Wal-Mart, they have them for only $20. that means that they're still fairly cheap. lol you could possibly even check out Wal-Mart.com. :D

how does the AR ruin the fun of the game? i'd like someone to explain that to me. i played the game for the longest time, and then i stopped all of a sudden until i got the AR. then it just gave me a new reason to play. especially the Walk/Run Through Anything code. that codes is so much fun, because you can travel all of Sinnoh in about 5-10 minutes. its hilarious. lol

i'd still suggest getting it anyway, because items that are hard to get, you can get easily, especially "EVENT ITEMS"!!! i cannot stress that enough! i got mine mainly for the Event Items, because i was so close to completing my Pokédex, but there were quite a few Pokémon i couldn't get, such as the Event Pokémon. XP

and what? not be able to afford to fly half-way across the world to go to one? i think NOT! i have two kids, so i can't afford to leave them. and even if they did them online, i can't be on 24/7 to find out when they're going to do it. i just don't have to time to sit around and wait. i don't live at home like a lot of the people on here. i think i'll use my Action Replay, thank you. and i think i'll still suggest he gets one. its either spend $20 for the Action Replay or hundreds of dollars to spend on a plain ticket, stay at a Hotel, got to the event, only to find out that they've given out all of the event tickets. I DON'T THINK SO!

you obviously didn't pay much attention, did you? unlike i'm sure you do, i don't live at home with my mommie and daddie, feeding off of them like a parasite. with two kids and living on my own, i can't afford to even travel half-way across the world, let alone New York City. and i live in the next state over! so, bend over and kiss it!
