Nope It's Not in HG/SS, sorry...

I'm trying to decide between a fire pokemon for my new file, and I was a bit curious. I can get a fire stone very early, and I would love having an arcanine quickly. If I evolve it before growlithe has learned all of it's moves, will it still learn them as arcanine, or would I have to use heart scales or keep growlithe until like 48?

I'm asking because on serebii and bulbapedia, arcanine and ninetails don't list any moves via levelup except for extreme speed on arcanine.

 

[Yusshin]

When you evolve Vulpix, Pikachu, Growlithe, Clefairy, or any stone-based Pokemon, most of the time (an exception being Bellossom) your Pokemon will not learn any moves.

So Growlithe evolved to Arcanine at a low level would require heart scales to relearn moves.

 

[RouIette]

that is gross ):
Thank you for the clarification XD

Can anyone help me with Voltorb Flip? I'm on lvl 3, and I have no idea on how to determine which card would be a voltorb or not. I've already watched the videos on YouTube, and they are no help.

Unless you can settle with Gyarados or Tentacruel(both very good choices, their pre-evolutions are just annoying), you won't have much of a choice for pokemon that get STAB on water type moves. Octillery is a pretty popular choice, but you can find Remoraid on route 44, which is after Mahogany. You can also find Staryu by surfing on route 47, but that's pretty late as well. They're all great choices, it just depends on how long you're willing to wait.

There's always wooper, also learning ground moves.

My entire team is level 60, and I need to get to lvl 70 to challenge the new E4. I can't challenge all the gym leaders to a rematch, as that would take forever, and you can only get their numbers/challenge them at certain times.
Where could I train from 60-70?

As I see, there's no super great way to train at the higher levels. I'd strap on a Lucky Egg and fight the highest level pokémon you can with the highest experience yield.

Reset the DS clock to get all of the gym leaders numbers, then choose a Pokemon from your team and match it with a gym leader that it can sweep the whole team. (ie. Brock and Bellossom, etc.) Set the DS clock to the time in which you call need to call this gym leader, call them, and battle. Rinse and repeat. I got my full team of level 60 Pokemon to level 70 Pokemon in waaay less than a day. The hard part is getting all of the phone numbers and constantly changing the DS clock. Each battle gained about one level if I only used one Pokemon, untill some of them it took two battles to get the higher levels.

Soo.. my friend is having problems with her soulsilver game. everytime she tries to trade pokemon with someone it says something about disconnecting as soon as they enter the trading screen. I'm not really sure what she's talking about since I've never had that problem and she can trade pokemon with me just fine.

Anyone else have this problem? Or have heard of it and care to explain whats happening? ;_;
Please and thank you.

Where is the guy that helps pokemon remember moves? I need to find him or her. I'm evolving my precious shinyeevee with adamant nature and perfect attack iv into a flareon. Is it good if I let it learn fire fang, since it's a physical attack

He's in blackthrone city.

Since fire fang is the only physcial fire attack that it can learn, then yes. Its the best attack for Flareon. ^_^
