By the way, in Beta 5 X,

Spoiler:

my Ho-oh didn't come with Sacred Ash. Not that I intended to use it, anyway. Does it is supposed to come ALWAYS with the item?

Not that I know. Mine didn't came with the Sacred Ash either, so probably not..

But now that you mention it;
Immediately after I caught Ho-oh, I found a Master Ball. It just came out of nowhere...

> ZORA caught Ho-oh! ... > Pokédex description ... > *returning to the rooftop* .. ZORA found a Master Ball!

Weird, huh?
Is it a glitch, orrrrr....? 0_o

Ok, this is not the thread to post bugs, I ask you to go to the main thread.
My Ho-oh had sacred ash, and it's supposed to, I don't know why yours don't.
And the masterball thing is a bug. O.o Maybe it's the ROM. Do you have a previous savestate? Can anyone else confirm this?

Nah, I don't have a previous savestate.

Well, I tried to achieve the same thing again ('cause I saved the game at another slot right before Ho-oh, thanks to the VisualBoy) and it even works when you Run away from battle.

Here you can see the screen where Ho-oh will disappear afterwards.
Notice this is right before it flashes black (or actually while it flashes black) and where you'll be standing on the rooftop.
You won't be able to see the full text though, like: "Obtained a Master Ball".

Well, I'll post this in the Main thread..

hown can i get lapras? & where is it?

Spoiler:

Well, i never caught lapras in shiny gold, but if he did it like regular gold, go to that cave under violet city (sorry, forgot name).
There is one pool of water that if you surf accross, you can get to a set of stairs, eventually leading to lapras.

 

[~CyberKitsune09~]

Where do you get the flash HM in shiny gold?

 

[+Sneasel™]

Where do you get the flash HM in shiny gold?

Spoiler:

go to the top of the bellsprout tower.

Anyone encountered the bad egg yet? I just discovered that my Dunsparce turned into a Bad Egg today.

I didn't use cheats or anything which is usually when Bad Eggs are suppose to appear. Is there a cause to this?

 

[TB Pro]

Spoiler:

Sometimes they are just caused by glitches

 

[Batonelli]

hown can i get lapras? & where is it?

Spoiler:

Can be found in the Union Cave. Not as a wild Pokémon you could encouter, but as a Lapras-sprite on the water.
Enter the Cave from the south. Go left where you can Surf on the water. Take the stairs to get 1 floor lower. Surf to the right and get to another stairs to get 1 floor lower. Get to the water nearby and Surf on it. Keep going south and you'll see the Lapras.

Ok, I caught Celebi, now where do I go?

 

[Ivysaur]

Where do you go for what?

Anyone have any suggestion for defeating Carlos's Chansey? At the beginning of the Ice path? Any suggestions for my team? I know I need a sixth man. Any good training places after I get the 7th badge?

Yeah i know carlos's chansey was such a pain to kill you might wanna add a fighting type pokemon or you could use a pokemon that knows a fighting type move, I managed to beat carlos chansey by using swampert and you could train in route 42 if you use surf you will see a patches of grass and you can train there or you can regester trainers numbers and then call them to see if they want to battle with the phone booth.

 

[Giovanni Boss]

In Shiny Gold X i don't remember he having a chansey.

Spoiler:

Well, just use physical attacks, with your marshtomp or pidgeotto. If it's too hard, paralyze her, then use physical attacks saving with shift + f1 so to make her fully paralyzed all turns. I don't like using it but sometimes is needed, although i think i've only used it on the first rival battle. That chikorita is hard as hell to take down in SGX.

 

[MR. MR. MR. ATOM.]

Where do you go for what?

Umm.... to continue my journey? Duh.

 

[LastHand]

Anyone know where I could find a good strong fighting pokemon? I dont know where many pokemon are in Shiny gold. It would be a wild goose chase....

 

[pkmnmaster69]

Yeah well you could just use a fighting type of pokemon like machop (train it) the rare fighting type pokemon like combuskin,blaziken,tyrogue,himonchan,hitmanlee,hitmontop are only obtained later in the game though so you could use a tms on your pokemon to beat carlos chansey.
