To get Cut, you have to catch both Farfetch'd. Distract them into looking in one direction by steping on a bracnh, and then approach them and press A on them while they are still looking the other way (i.e. then approach them via a route eithout a branch in the way). For the second one, have him in the top right-hand corner of the four places it can be and have it looking downwards - then go around and interact with it from the left side).

Q: How to obtain Radio Card?

Answers are Top, Top, Bottom, Top and Bottom in that order.

I hearby endorse this thread. =)

We'll have it as a Help thread of sorts - as people keep asking questions about parts they get stuck in, this can serve as a Help for them.

I'll note a few common problems:

• To be able to head towards Union Cave/Azelea Town south from Violet City, you have to beat Sprout Tower, the Gym, and then accept the Egg from Elm's aide, who will be standing in Violet City's PokeMart. (Not the Pokemon Centre).
• To get Cut, you have to catch both Farfetch'd. Distract them into looking in one direction by steping on a bracnh, and then approach them and press A on them while they are still looking the other way (i.e. then approach them via a route eithout a branch in the way). For the second one, have him in the top right-hand corner of the four places it can be and have it looking downwards - then go around and interact with it from the left side).
• To get Whitney to appear in her gym, you have to get the Radio Card from Radio Tower in Goldenrod. You have to do a quiz - the answers are Top, Top, Bottom, Top and Bottom in that order.

Alright, I've got a question, where might I find myself a Leaf Stone?

 

[Tochukaso]

im having problems with soulsilver. i patched it with an anti-freeze patch but it still freezes often- i have to save after every trainer. any suggestions?

 

[Ooka]

Sorry, but ROM talk isn't encouraged around here, but I can suggest that you import the game, you wouldn't have any problems then. :P

Maybe it'll be same as in G/S/C that means from Bill's dad in Kanto...
If I found any I'll let ya know

Does that mean it could possibly get a sticky, to prevent it from falling into the recess of backthreads pages back.

Hmm...No questions for now, but that's because I'm not very far in.
Expect a question or too later, if I'm not too determined to try it alone.
Albeit that, If I do do it alone, I will post here for anyone that asks a question on soemthing that I've already past.

We're allowed answer that question dude. We're just not allowed link to roms.

As for you Tochukaso, I suggest using the IdeaS emulator(use google to find it) because it's working VERY well for me and I've experienced no freezing and/or slowing down like I did on No$GBA and DeSmuME.

Where can i find a Fire Stone?

 

[bobandbill]

For the 'where do I get ___ Stone' questions - I don't know specific locations, but I do know that a Crystal method exists for HG/SS. Basically, some people will give you a phone number once you beat them - in Crystal and HG/SS, at times they will call you and when you go visit them they'll give you an item, such as the Stones! So for instance Leaf Stone can be gotten from the Picknicker girl by the Day Care Center you gives you her number.

Does that mean it could possibly get a sticky, to prevent it from falling into the recess of backthreads pages back.

Maybe. Probably as more get their games and all, methinks, or maybe sooner...

How do i catch that farfetched it keeps runing away

 

[Andrew McKenzie]

You have to watch out for the sticks on the ground, if you step on them, it turns to a different direction.

I suggest you check out the walkthrough on Pokebeach's main site in their HG/SS Section on the side menu.
They're up as far as Goldenrod so it should help.

I honestly think that explained it pretty well. :P

Woops, my bad, I meant *link removed*(linked to rid you of any search issues).
Sorry for the mix-up.

It doesn't have to sticky for now :)
It's still new so it'll have lots of posts :)

In the city with the first gym badge; what does the boy want to trade? (he is in the house on the bottom left of the poke-centre.)

(both recieving and giving)

 

[ShinyMeganium]

Tip: you can't get to Jasmine from the lift. Go up the stairs, and eventually you'll find an open window you can go through. Then you'll have a 3D thing and you'll have access to more trainers and then her/her Ampharos.

I think he wants to trade Onix in exchange for Bellsprout if it hasnt changed from gsc

 

[bobandbill]

^ Can confirm that it's the same as GSC with the trade - guy in Violet City trades you a (nicknamed, methinks) Onix for a Bellsprout, and I think it comes with a berry as well....

Man on the 5th level of the Goldenrod Dept. Store also trades a Machop for your Drowzee, again like GSC. It appears to have had the Macho Brace or a similar-looking item attached to it... neat.
