what is the use of apricons?
Click to expand...
Apricorns can be taken to Kurt in Azalea Town and he'll make custom Poké Balls for you (in other words, types of Poké Balls that cannot be bought in shops). Different coloured apricorns get you different types of Poké Balls.

They can also be used at the Pokéathlon Dome to make Aprijuice, a drink that will make your Pokémon better at certain aspects of Pokéathlon events.

Hope this helped :)
 
thanks, are these custom balls better than the ones sold in market?

Where can buy elixir/ether?

Some custom balls are better in situations - for instance the heavy ball is terrible for light Pokemon but is great for trying to catch heavy Pokemon. Certainly worth getting as you encounter Apricorns all over the place and grow back daily.

You cannot buy Ether/Elixer in stores, unfortunately, but you can grow certain berries that restore PP via the berry grower if you happen to get them (maybe by say trading shards with people such as the guy in Violet City?)

What levels should my Pokemon be when I fight the Elite 4 the second time?
Click to expand...
You should be at least lvl. 60+ but yesterday I beat the 2nd Elite Four with very underleveled pokemon.

Here's what I beat it with:
Lvl. 55 Starmie
Lvl. 54 Scizor
Lvl. 52 Ampharos
Lvl. 52 Typhlosion
Lvl. 56 Absol
Lvl. 49 Crobat

It depends on what pokemon you choose and what kind of moves do you have that are useful in the Elite Four. 2 moves that helped me A LOT were Haze for Karen's pokemon and Will-o-Wisp for Lance's pokemon.

quick question! can a friend and I wifi double battle team against random people?
Click to expand...

If you're referring to a WiFi four way tag-team battle, then unfortunately you can't. Which kinda sucks :\ You can only do that locally (DS Communications).

You can however battle tag-team in the Battle Tower over WiFi, if that's any consolation.
 
Pokewalker Trouble!

Hey guys i'm having a bit of trouble and wanted to get your views. On my Pokewalker, I have a Bronzor. Which is fine but ive never put a Bronzor and when I went to the Pokewalker screen it says that I dont have a Bronzor on there. Can anyone help?

Bronzor probably joined you when you were walking. It happens all the time to me, so it's just natural. No worries, and you should be happy that now you have a Bronzor! :D
 
does anyone have a bagon they're willing to trade? or does anyone know a trainer in-game with a bagon or shellgon? thank you.

This isn't really the right place to ask for trades. Trying asking in the trading forum; you'll probably find someone willing to trade there. ^^;;

Also, I'm pretty sure Bagon or Shellgon don't appear anywhere in-game in HGSS aside from the Safari Zone.
 
I think he meant an in-game trainer so he could view it and ask over GTS...

Sadly, all I know is that Lance has a Salamence.

Try the routes from Cinnabar Island to Fuchsia City, then up to Lavender Town...they seem to have good pokémon diversity among trainers.

This may be a right-off-the-bat question, but it sparked my interest a little. :P
If you were to encounter a standing legendary Pokemon, which just happens to be shiny, does the overworld sprite appear shiny?
Click to expand...

Nope, it doesn't. D:
I tried RNG'ing for a Shiny Rayquaza, but it's just green. >_>
HOWEVER, you can walk with it and still is Shiny overworld-ly~~ <3 <3
 
A few months ago, while using my PokeWalker, I lost it an dit's nowhere to be found.

If I buy SoulSilver, can I link up the PokeWalker in it with my HeartGold (The One With The Lost PokeWalker) or will it only work for the game I bought it with?
 
It can link to your Heart Gold, don't worry. But once it's linked and you try to link it to your Soul Silver it will delete the PokeWalker Data.

In order to get the Bronzor to your game you need to select the receive gift option.
 
Can I Mystery Gift a Pokemon? Like send via Mystery Gift? There's a "Receive from friend" option. Or is that just for items?
