4th Gen Do you use walkthroughs in your D/P/PT?

[arcanineflames23]

As you read in the title, do you use walkthroughs in your D/P/PT? I am a begginner so I use walkthroughs, but not for D/P/PT.

I've only used them for things like getting through Mt. Coronet.. I hate not knowing where to go in caves or things like it.

 

[Moltres111]

For Diamond, I didn't. I had watched a Platinum walkthrough before though, so I kinda knew what to do.

For Platinum, I had to watch it again, because I forgot how to do the Distortion World. xD

 

[alphabetsoup102062]

Yeah, I do. Partly because the one for Platinum had the National Pokedex in it, so I didn't have to keep checking on the internet for where Pokemon were.

 

[Christopher]

No I like blundering about trying to figure out which way to go while training along the way

 

[Kikaito plush]

we only check gamefaqs once, stupid rock climb hm hard to find

I have the D/P Strategy Guide and Pokedex Guide, and they've helped me a lot. I gave the Strategy Guide to my friend for her Diamond game after I beat Platinum, but I look stuff up in the Pokedex Guide pretty much every day. When I need info that isn't in the guide I look it up on Serebii. Although I did all the older Pokemon games without a guide, there's no way I'd want to play without it now.

 

[PuffyChain]

sometimes i use it... if i have stuck at difficult place...

 

[Theodore Bruno]

No way, takes away the challenge and the reward of actually finding what to do on your own. I never use a walkthrough on anything these days.

 

[Dreadnought]

Used Serebii and Bulbapedia mostly for stat checks and also pokemon rates of encounter in the wild.

 

[Viral Panda]

Personally, didn't use a walkthrough for Platinum (Didn't play Diamond/Pearl). In fact, I've never used a walkthrough for any of the Pokemon games.

Although, sometimes after I'd been on a certain route or in a cave for quite a while I checked Bulbapedia incase there were any Pokemon which appeared there that I'd want to pick up. I wouldn't really count that as a walkthrough though.

I don't remember if I used walkthroughs for my Diamond, but I didn't for Platinum. For some reason I seemed to know what to do all the time :D

 

[Tree_x]

I don't remember if I used walk throughs for my Diamond, but I didn't for Platinum. For some reason I seemed to know what to do all the time :D

Geez that is a lot of shinys you got there but anyways back on topic i only use walk throus for the pokedex in the back :3

Ha, thanks. I sure love that Pokeradar <3

Oh, and for the walkthroughs, I never buy the "book" versions that Nintendo sells. I always use Serebii's or Psypoke's online walkthroughs. I find them so much more insightful.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

I use the printed guides for maps and GameFAQS guides for everything else. I like having an exhaustive list of trainers, so I know which of my Pokemon to put at the front to pwn them.

 

[aquatorrent]

if you says for beating the elite four, no.
i just checked walkthrough to see if i miss something or(and) want to catch something :D

 

[akamichi]

I however only use a guide if im stuck at some places other than that nope.

 

[560cool.]

I didn't ....

Only on my 2nd Playthrough on Pt. ! ;) I wanted to build an OK team to pass through the game and skip the COronet Annoyance ...

Ahh , my loving laptop ! :) Good times with him ... I just love that I have any FAQ on-the-go with that thing ! :D

 

[arcanineflames23]

For help I sometimes use *link removed* :)

 

[jmd34]

I use Walktrhough out of any pokemon games until the elite 4 , simply to know if my pokemons are at a decent level or if I should train more :) , as for the puzzles etc , i prefer to do it myself
