You have to get one From D/P or Pal Park one in. Otherwise, it's a Trophy Garden Poke.

In Platinum only in the Trophy Garden in the day the owner says he's seen one.

I can't get to dialga and palkia :(, I go from the celestic town entrance

You don't enter Mt Cornet to get Dialga and Palkia from there. You enter either from the Hearthome or Oreburgh City entrances.

The trophy garden I think if your having trouble finding pokemon in certain games go to serebii.net it should help you out a lot

Previous Gen Pokemon in Platinum

Just curious, I know once you import a Pokemon into the pal park you can catch a lot of them in random places around Sinnoh, but what happens if you get one traded to you?
Is there any way outside of pal park imports that you can make it possible to catch previous Gen Pokemon throughout Sinnoh?

Where is a Good place to EV train?

does anyone know where a good place to train for attack and speed EVs?

 

[Yuoaman]

Attack: https://serebii.net/pokedex-dp/attack.shtml

Speed: https://serebii.net/pokedex-dp/speed.shtml

Use these to help you find a good place.

 

[jigglyppuff8]

In my opinion:

Attack: Route 207 (Machop; 1 EV)
Speed: Ravaged Path (Zubat; 1 EV)

 

[Pingouin_7]

No. You can catch those Pokémon even if you didn't Pal Park them.

Just use Pokéradar, swarms, GBA insertion, etc.

Power anklet???

I was trying to ev train for speed, with my larvitar holding a power anklet. However, a wobbuffet appeared and I can't run away due to shadow tag. It gives 2 HP EV's, so would I get those 2 for HP and 4 for speed b/c of the power anklet? I REALLY don't want to mess up my EV's...

 

[Gymnotide]

Yeah, you'll get 2HP and 4SPE. If you have PokeRUS, you'll get 4HP and 8SPE.

Turn off and do it again. First things first how come you aren't killing magikarps?? Sigh** Location Location Location.

 

[Giraffes? Giraffes!]

Why would he turn it off? There is berries to remove EVs for a reason.

 

[lolwut]

I didn't really understand Aeltrius' question, but there's only a couple of pokes you can't catch without pal parking so you can just use the pokeradar or swarms for anything else. The rest; you would need to trade or pal park.

Common Pokemon with good EVs:

Wobbuffet (via Pokéradar on the Lakes) - 2 HP-EVs
Luxio (in near of the Fuego Ironworks) - 2 Atk-EVs
Graveler (e.g. in Victory Road) - 2 Def.-EVs
Kadabra (e.g. in Victory Road) - 2 SpAtk.-EVs
-> Put a Pokemon with ability Synchro on 1st slot on Team, so Pokemon with the same ability appear oftener (like Kadabra).
Magikarp (all waters) - 1 Spe.-EVs
-> Put a Pokemon with ability Suction Cups like Octillery or Cradily on 1st slot on Team, so fishing will be a child's play.
Tentacruel (in the lake before the Pokemon-League) - 2 SpDef-EVs

This are some really common and easy to meet Pokemon, i advise using PokéRadar, so once the wished Pokémon appears, simply defeat it, and go to the next field. Oh, and you should use the "Power"-items for +4 extra EVs.

Can you trade Pokemon with mail over wi-fi?

Can you trade Pokemon with mail over wi-fi?

One of my friends has already done it with me before, so yes you can. Though of course, you cannot trade the mail if your pokemon is already holding a held item that isn't the mail. I hope this helped.

Thanks! I'm making a trade thread with everything I can offer, and I really wasn't sure.

Why would he turn it off? There is berries to remove EVs for a reason.

Um okay well that all depends on how far he has gone on his EV training and if he saved earlier. He should turn it off if he saved when he was about do start his EV training which saves berries for later uses. Besides I'm pretty sure he messed his EV training up to begin with if he was in a wilderness with wobbufets which honestly preferably it is better if you kill pokemon that give off 1 EV point which is definetly Magikarp for speed.

Ok, this is going to be a really odd question, but I'm getting really frustrated so I'll ask it. I got to Giratina the 17th of May (I look at my journal entry every time I reset my game) and I have been SR ing for a shiny Giratina since that date. Sometimes I have a day off so I'll go at it pretty much ALL DAY (about 8 hours give or take) while I do things around the house or I'll go at it when I get home from work for about 4 or so hours until I go to bed. I have yet to have seen it shine even ONCE and its been 3 weeks. How unfair is that? Is this normal? I hear about how it took people like 2,000 or 200 resets and I'm probably literally going on hundreds of thousands now and my game is still not showing me any promise of a reward for it. Has this happened to anyone else? I really don't want to give up, I want it so bad : (
