I wanna get black, and I just thought of this:

what happens if I try to trade GEN V-mons to my diamond? can you?

No, I believe trading is one-way (like with 3rd to 4th gen games), and even if it did go both ways you would not be able to transfer gen 5 Pokemon to 4th gen games (as there is no data for them in said 4th gen games).

Hey guys is Pikachu available pre elite 4 to catch? Since the GB days hes been a must have in my team.

Yes - in D/P/Pt they're catchable in the trophy garden (accessible ~ halfway in terms of gyms at the latest I believe, maybe earlier).
 
Hey again folks

Need help with generating IVs for a level 1 squirtle.

I have to make the pokemon from scratch, but I need as close to legit IVs for it as possible. It's just for my peace of mind though.

The pokemon doesn't have any stats yet, obviously.

I don't really get the whole IV thing so, any help would be appreciated :)
 
If you engage in IV battle which is Level 100 Single, then calculating the IV's will become easier because the stats will be boosted as if it was leveled to 100.
 
How often does a wild pikachu hold a light ball because when ever i went to catch them ( looked a few hours for one ) they wont be holding a light ball.

I'm sorry, but somehow I didn't get at all what you meant. What is this IV battle you talk of, for starters?
 
An IV battle is just a regular Lv. 100 wifi battle. Your pokemon is temporarily boosted to level 100, their stats included. Those stats are what you plug into the calculator to find out their IVs....but then again, you're on an emulator, aren't you? So moot point. =/
 
Yeah I am, and that wouldn't work obviously since there are no stats to boost, and IVs to "find out", even if I could do that with the emulator.

Basicly, I just need to know how many points of IVs I can place for a squirtle, and what is the logic in how they are distributed between the different stats?

Because I figure the only way is to just type in random numbers. I just don't know how many and how to distribute them.

After tinkering a little with Squirtle stats, here's what I've got:
Lv. 1 Adamant Squirtle
Stats: 12/6/6/5/6/6 (this is HP|Att|Def|SpA|SpD|Speed, mind you)
IVs: 12-31 HP|4-31 Att|0-31 Def|0-31 SpA|0-31 SpD|14-31 Speed
(oh look, I think I got high stats)

Elekid cannot breed as it is in the No Eggs Egg Group. You will have to evolve it into an Electabuzz.

but wait

some people who play pokemon are harxcore gamers who want to do EVERYTHING. this includes the national pokedex.

and you can only get glaceon and leafeon in D/P/Pt

so, how would that work if it was only one way?
 
Simple, really. You obtain the Glaceon/Leafeon in DPP and transfer it to B/W.
Edit: Or trade. Eh, the one thing I forget...

Are there any good places to Train a Skorupi up to level 40 in Platinum? Mine is level 34 right now

Above Solaceon town there's all those trainers and there's a breeder on the other side of the ledge, use the Vs. Seeker. She had a Happiny that gives round about 900-950 Exp, use the Exp share for 1200+ everytime, she also has an Elekid or Magby I think, along with a togepi so thats about 1900+ Exp for one battle :o
 
Hatch and release them. There's no other way, unfortunately. But hey, maybe you'll get lucky and one of those eggs turn out shiny or has high IVs.
 
Can I cheat for my favorite

I just got Pearl and I still have no legit shines but after my first legit can I cheat to get my favorite Pokemon and that is Flaeron. Back in the days of yellow version(I have that and blue then my brother has red the originals BTW) Flaeron was my best Pokemon with the move body slam I got him to 75 which is the highest lvl Pokemon I have on it. I just want to know if I can cheat to get a shiny one and admit I cheated.
