Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

Only through a Move Tutor. They can teach Pokemon moves that are not normally learnt through TM's, HM's or levelling up. Your Tyranitar will only learn Fire Punch from a Move Tutor, but nowhere else.

Thanks Switchback and TIR666 . I'm Playing Diamond.
New question, where do I get Heart Scale? I need it for the Tutor..

EDIT; I got the Heart Scale from my Luvdisc, BUT. The move-tutor can only learn my Larvitar Leer, Sandstorm, Screech and Scary Face? Where's Fire Punch?

Your Larvitar cannot learn Fire Punch, it's simply unevolved. Only once it's a Tyranitar, can it learn Fire Punch. It's second evolution, Pupitar, cannot learn it either. I'm afraid you'll have to raise it to level 55 in order for it to evolve into Tyranitar and learn Fire Punch.

Oh, I see. I'll come back then :) I'm training this Dragon Dancing Tyranitar, and I thought that the Fire Punch could only be learned from a breed chain from the Dragonite I used, but luckily I'll get it this way! Would've s*cked to breed and EV up another from the start.. :p Thanks!
 
Platinum version =| please help...

Well due to lack of time all this 2008-2009 year i had NO pokemon gameplay contact...i read some hreads here but made no sense since you all know what Pokemon Platinum version offers lol...i have some questions over here

x) can i connect through the net with others players?

xx) wha other cool possibilities do i have?
 
You can trade and battle via the internet using either wireless internet or the usb adapter and a broadband connection. You can battle or trade with 493 pokemon and it is alot of fun. Sorry for repeating myself.

aww thats really cool! when my platinum version arrives , ive already ordered it, i will need more help lol
 
No, problem I'd be glad to help I've beaten Pearl and have like over 400 hours of gameplay in it lol. I got Platinum on Tuesday and am still making my way through so If you need help just ask.
 
Does it matter what kind of pokémon I fight after I've recieved all the Effort Points that I needed for the different stats?
Would this affect the stats or ruin the EVs that I've collected by fighting pokemons that just give Speed & Atk?

No once all the Evs you've collected are set they can't be removed unless you use one of the Ev reducing berries. So, you can level up your pokemon how ever you want once they are in place.
 
I have a question...
Will these new Japan events (NZ Jirachi, Shokotan Pichu (PCP), and movie Arceus) activate the in-game events like they are supposed to in English HG/SS? If anyone knows, please PM me. I will probably not look back here again, and I don't want it to be a pain to know all the answers you gave me by having to find them here. Thanks.
 
I can always heart scale those moves though right? I only want one so it's be a waste to wait.

Of course you can. If you don't feel like evolving Slowpoke yet, when you feel like evolving it, go ahead and use the heart scale(s). It will not mess up anything either...
 
So Im trying to make a Police Themed team that Im going to Ev on diamond, any suggestions on which 6 pokes to use ?

Lol, what kind of police? Like, The Police, the band, or like the cops? I'll edit this or something later with more suggestions, but if you're going for the actual cops, I'd suggest Growlithe/Arcanine. I remember in G/S/C all those police guys used Growlithe.

Erm ,well like the above poster said, you can always use Growlithe/Arcanine. What else.. I dunno, maybe some dog type pokemon? Like Poochyena, Mightyena, Houndoom, and Houndour. They could be like the canine unit. :3

Sorry if I mispelled the names, I haven't played pokemon in ages.
 
if one of your stats are maxed at 31, what level should it be at? (how can you tell if you are on track to having a good iv stat)
 
Noctowl, Medicham, and Machamp lines are the only other Pokemon that Officers use. Skarmory could also be used because PokeSpe Falkner is awesome. Also, Blastoise due to the Squirtle squad. Seems like a pretty bad team for competitive play IMHO.
