    This does sound odd... but we may need more info. Have you beat the gyms already? If so then it's perfectly normal - gym leaders will at times leave their gym to go somewhere around johto/kanto. If you encounter them you can get their phone numbers as well to battle them again.
    And if not... then have you use an AR or somthing like that?

    I had used a AR, is that bad? I don't think the codes should have messed up the gym leaders. I only have 2 Kanto Badges. I didn't fight them yet either.

    It should be in one of the inner tubes towards the northwestern side of the gym.

    You must complete the lil quest prior to acquiring it. This includes traveling to the power plant, speaking to the manager, going back to Cerulean and talking to the foreign Team Rocket member. Then he himself will tell you where it is (after a battle).

    Battle the guy on Nugget Bridge to the north.

    My "Question"

    Seeking to maximize my "exploration".

    What are ALL the Rock Climb areas?

    Routes, Caves (not by each room, just the cave name), cities.
    I do not need to know what items are beyond the climb.

    Is it possible to change the default display of a Pokemon in the Pokedex? Like is it possible to change the default display of a male Pokemon to the female version of the same species? Or from Origin-Forme Giratina to Altered-Forme Giratina?

    Keep at least one Pokemon in the PC with PKRS if you want to continue spreading it for at midnight any Pokemon with it not in the PC lose the spreadable quality of it.

    They may have changed this rule for HG/SS because I left 5 out of 6 pokemon in my party with PKRS overnight and filled the empty spot in the morning. After KO'ing a few random pokemon, the newly added pokemon contracted the virus.

    Good to know.

    Breeding with Power Items

    Breeding Differences


    As GSC added breeding as a new feature, HGSS brought some new breeding features.

    Firstly, there is a new way to pass down IVs from parents to the offspring, which is down via the Power items. If a parent holds one (or both parents hold two), then the stat that corresponds to power item will be passed down. The list:

    • Power Weights: HP
    • Power Bracers: Attack
    • Power Belt: Defense
    • Power Lens: Sp. Attack
    • Power Band: Sp. Defense
    • Power Anklet: Speed
    Click to expand...
    I haven't been able to find an authoritative answer on how breeding mechanics work with Power items thrown in.


    • Without a Power item, 3 IVs (which may overlap) are passed down from the parents. If a parent is holding an Power item, are 3 additional random IVs still passed down from the parents, or does the Power item change this?
    • If both parents hold a Power item, are two IVs passed down, and how does this affect the random IVs passed down from parents? Although I've read some claims that they are both always passed down, I also read that the chance is only about 25% or so, can anyone confirm this one way or the other?

    ^ Mrged with the Help thread as that's where questions are meant to go.

    (I'm not sure but I think up to 3 IVs are passed down always power item or not?)

    I heard that there's a guy in Violet city who gives you items/pokemon if you say something specific? Is this true?

    Route 11 is in Kanto, east of Vermillion City. You can't get there until after you beat the Elite Four.

    Unfortunately you can't buy them. If you go to Bulbapedia and search for "evolutionary stone" it has a list that tells you where you can get each type (this forum won't let me link to websites until I have 15 posts...)
    (Note that before you get the national pokedex, you can only get sun stones from winning the bug catching contest, not the others)

    Well, you can always get Munchlax from your Pokéwalker, assuming you have and use one. The Winner's Path event route currently being distributed has a Selfdestruct Munchlax, although it rarely appears. But if you're saying you'll only have 2 Pokémon the whole game, I'm guessing you're playing under some special rules?

    I'd like to know this... How do I obtain Wormadam's Ground and Trash Cloak forms in this game?
    Click to expand...

    I'm not entirely sure about all this, since I don't have a Burmy in my HG, but the Sand Cloak you can get by fighting in any cave, like probably Union Cave or Victory Road. As for the Trash Cloak...I've seen suggestions of Sprout Tower and the Mahogany Rocket Hideout...I can't check my game atm, but I assume the latter is still open? Or uh...ooo maybe a rematch with a Gym Leader, or one of those trainers in the Lighthouse? o.o Really wish I could try it myself right now...
