4th Gen Platinum Q&A Thread

[Callydude™]

Stark Mountain hasn't worked.Has anyone managed to catch Dialga/Palkia?

 

[wakachamo]

Yes, every single Pokémon has a PokéDex entry in the game, if that's what you mean.

 

[Ripper]

Do you guys know if the whole sinnoh dex is on the new platinum game?

I think you mean are all the 4th Gen Pokemon in the Sinnoh Dex?

All but a few legendaries (Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Regigigas, Cresselia, Phione) are in the Sinnoh Dex.

My question is how did you drop/destroy it? Its the Platinum orb for Giratina I think.

To get Dialga/Palkia, I think you have to get the Adamant/Lustrous Orbs first.

I think he already has those.

Well i went to my item bag searched for the item and I pressed a chose the 2nd option cause i thought it was like First option is "Use" 2nd Option is "Give" and third was "Cancel" but apparently the second option is drop :S and no it's not the platinum orb -_- cause i tried pokesav to see if it was the orb but it had a different icon

you'll be fine as long as you know these things:

1.if you are asked a question and there's 2 answers, the top one is always yes and the 2nd always no. always say yes. unless its not a yes or no question, then you're screwed.

2.memorize what colors are what heal (burn heal, awakening, paralyze heal, etc)

3. learn as much of the pokemon's moves as it levels up so you know what you're teaching your pokemon and what you're forgetting, or you might replace something you need.

4. dont teach a TM unless you know for sure what it is

Platinum Movepools/tutor moves question

Alright, due to the massive overhaul of new moves given to pokemon in platinum(like almost all electric types learning magnet rise)

Is it possible to trade a pokemon to platinum, teach it a move tutor move, and trade it back to diamond and pearl with no problem? I dont see a reason why it shouldnt, so I should be able to do it right?

I was hoping to teach my leafeon and espeon aqua tail and signal beam.

 

[Azonic]

Yes, It should be fine. If you can hack a Pokemon with unusual moves and trade it back and forth, then you should have no problem teaching a Pokemon a legit move and trading it back. ;]

 

[darthjarjar]

Awesome, thanks. :) now I can have a little fun with diamond before platinum comes out,(thank god I know people with platinum already, so they can hook me up with some moves.)

 

[Stop Messing Up My Files Porygon-Z!]

Platinum will come out in America in five, six months tops. A few months after "Pruning a Passel of Pals" aired in Japan, the Shaymin movie came out in theaters. And a few months after that, Platinum came out.

 

[Cema]

In my Pokesav for Platinum, when my editing is output into Platinum, instead of having the Platinum font, it has the Diamond and Pearl font. Any fixes?

 

[Ooka]

Wait, what exactly do you mean? The font in your game isn't Platinum font?

 

[Callydude™]

I think he already has those.

Yes I do already have those...
