Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

how do i get the tm explosion?

TM64: Explosion is obtained in different ways depending on where your game comes from.
  • <EU>: You must shell over 20000 Game Corner coins at Veilstone City to buy this TM.
  • Everywhere else: Obtain a 10-win combo streak at the slots in the Veilstone Game Corner.

10 win combo...that even possible?

seems like the slot machines cheat, and you can only win when theres a pokeball/clefairy on the touch screen
 
Ok, i'm rly not that intelligent, but, how do you get Glalie to evolve into Froslass???

And the same for Magneton---> Magnezone.



And how do you get Dialga nd Palkia in Platinum????

And although i'm assuming you need event shizz, can you get Shaymin-S in platinum normally, or do you need a trade or some event thing??

Glalie doesn't evolve; Snorunt evolves into Froslass when you use a Dawn Stone, only if the Snorunt is Female.

Magneton evolves into Magnezone by gaining a Level on Mt. Coronet.

You can get Dialga and Palkia in Pt. after getting the National Dex, by talking to Cynthia's Grandmother and finding the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs in Mt. Coronet. Back on Spear Pillar, you'll be able to battle them.

To get Skymin (Sky Forme Shaymin), you'll need to get an Nintendo Event Shaymin to Platinum, have it in your party and talk to a lady in Floaroma. You'll get the Key Item "Gracidea", which you use to change any Shaymin to Sky Forme (It can't be in Sky Forme while Frozen or during night-time).

Okay I have a couple questions.

1. Where do you get the chain Pokemon app? (the one that shows you your highest chains)

2. Where is the move deleter at?

Canalave city . you might not know that because you maybe you have not gotten there ye
 
OK, so I'm trying to breed my female Roselia. First I but it in the daycare with a male Pachirisu. The old man in front said that "the two don't seem to like each other much", so I took out Pachirisu and put a Cherubi in. Again, they didn't like each other much, so I trapsed all the way down to Floaroma to catch three more Pachirisu. Trying each of them in turn, for each of them I was told that "they don't seem to like each other much". I've checked, they're all of the right genders and egg groups. How is this happening? Am I missing something? Do they still breed even if they don't like each other? Help me please.

They will still breed, it will just take a bit longer than normal. The message for not getting an egg is actually "The two prefer to play with other Pokemon than with each other" or something to that effect.

Ah OK, thank you. Much appreciated :)

Thanks. I really wish i'd asked that earlier, coz now i've got a male level 54 glalie i don't really need. Oh well, suppose it gives me versatility.
 
Hi everyone, I've just got a quick question on EV training.
Say I was EVing for S.Atk, so I was battling Golducks in the Resort area, with the pokemon holding Power Specs, so 2(From Golducks) + 4 (From power item) = 6 S.Atk EVs. If he had the PKRS virus, would he get 12, or would it not affect the Power Specs and he'd just get 8? I need to know :(
Please respond ASAP!
 
Naw, the pokémon would get 12 Sp. Attack EVs. Pokérus is taken into account only after all the other EV boosting items are.
 
can someone post the default 4 moves of a wild natu..
im chaining and wondering if it has teleport
 
53. im wondering what moveset the default swarm ones have

(if anyone has a caught ut natu plz post moveset 0_0 )
 
They should have Ominous Wind, Power swap, guard swap, and psychic according to Serebii. (Wild pokemon always have the 4 newest moves they can learn when they're wild.)

Catching Uxie

I'm having a hard time capturing Uxie on Diamond, and I was wondering if anyone had any tips. I've gotten it's HP down to just a few lines of pixels WHILE it was asleep... but Ultra Balls haven't done much. Does anyone have a good strategy for catching this Pokemon?
 
Either tradeback a Uxie and keep using Repeat Balls.
Use Timer Balls, or Dusk Balls

Also, get a False Swiper on your team so you know you can't kill it

Try Dusk Balls then move onto Timer Balls when you run out.
Just keep at it.
I've been lucky with my catches. I got super long freezing on a few of my legendaries, and single ball catches with others, but just keep throwing balls then making it go to sleep.
That's your best bet.
