where can i go to make a burmy turn steel?

 

[shookie]

It turns steel inside buildings, so try the lighthouse or Goldenrod Tunnel.

I'm trying to find a houndour on route 7 in SS. I wanted a fire and dark type. I want to teach it crunch, flamethrower, dark pulse, and fire blast. These are the moves I want it to learn. Does anyone know where else to catch one? Thanks.

 

[shookie]

The Safari Zone, Savannah, with 4 Forest objects = level 42 Houndour.

where does one go to acquire wondercards? I am a general player of platinum, so i'm used to jubilife city...

wheres the guy to talk to in soulsilver? i'm sure i'd know but i've never done an event on this game.

Got the card? Good. Now go visit ANY Pokemart. Or visit first floor of a department store (Celadon/Goldenrod). Talk to a 'man wearing green'.

@ Volroc & "that freaky looking S-like 'symbol' followed by a 1 guy"

the wi-fi Jirachi currently available is NOT of fixed stat. Saving BEFORE getting it from the man allows one to try (their patience) with 'better' stats at level five, better nature, better color (shiny hunters, the RNG fangasmic). Power on, power off. Power on, Power off.

 

[Jin-Roh]

figured it out.
for hgss theres an option in the start menu that wasn't in platinum that they don't even have to talk to a guy first to do.

and as per shiny jirachis...
I don't believe it is possible or legal

 

[Essence]

Shinies of every pokemon are possible. You just have to Look :)

All you have to do is catch Jirachi in FR/LG after catching Mew (look up strategy online somewhere) and hope til its shiny! It might take a while (longgg while) but keep at it! It's possible! :)

 

[shookie]

With the current Jirachi event, though, it's impossible. All Mystery Gift Pokémon are coded in a way that prevents the Pokémon from being shiny by regenerating the PID until it isn't shiny. This obviously doesn't count for things like the PCP which were meant to be shiny. It also doesn't count Pokémon that you access through an in-game location, such as Shaymin and Darkrai.

Ok, well...I know lots, but not this.

Which HMs are essential to getting through Victory Road?

And same question, but for Mount Silver.

I'm nowhere near, but I may need to edit my team....

 

[frank21]

ok i need to know, if i restart my game wil i lose winner's trail?
i got the pokewalker course through mystery gift, so will restarting make me lose that trail?

 

[§1]

yes i can, just tried it

if i soft reset after each time i get it from the delivery guy, it's nature is different

victory road-stregnth is the only important one, some items behind rock smashable rocks

mt. silver- surf and waterfall to get to moltres (optional), rock climb to go elsewhere

yea these hms are a pain

Yep, you lose Pokéwalker routes when you restart your game.

So, I don't need Surf and Waterfall to get to Red?

That's brilliant!

I like how in LeafGreen I could easily use all 5 HMs on my full team. Looks like I only need Surf,Waterfall,Strength,Rock Climb,Cut in this!
