Shiny Gold Help Thread

[jethrothekid]

Hey, I don't want to seem like a copout or anything by asking about codes but, whenever I use the wild encounter for R/S pokemon with the Fire Red code, I just get alot of Sunflora. And its only the R/S pokemon, the others work fine. I'm sorry if this has already been answered, I read like 5 pages of posts and didn't see anything.

 

[ziwang]

Also can I get a Sun Stone from thiefing Solrocks (or other pokemon)? Also where are Solrocks?

No, you can't. By the way, Solrocks are only available at Victory Road.
And I guess the Bug-catching contests are held randomly. Yes?

The dude that teaches ice beam thunderbolt etc is gone! my poor starmie is thwomped by grass and water/psychics!

Umm, that guy wasn't in Gold, but Crystal. Zel wanted to add the features of Gold, and more. I don't know if he has been added or will be, but why not teach it Blizzard and Thunder?

Go back to the T-junction where u battled with suddowoodo. Walk right, and talk to the fat guy in front of the trick house.
After that, you'll get the Fly HM eventually.

Incorrect.

The fat guy near Sudowoodo gives you Rock Smash.
The lady outside of the Cianwood gym gives you Fly once you've beaten the Gym Leader. Make sure you have Strength to get to the Cianwood gym leader.

(I'm done with my Cambria Font posts).

That is why I used the word "eventually"!
There's no point telling him / her everything! It'll make the game less fun that it would be.

Ok, so, yeah, anyone know of a way without trading/cheating/hacking for the other 2 johto starters to be obtained or is that still a thing to work on? I dunno which version of the beta i have, but it has the ghsots in cerulean, though i deleted the ones on the right side so i could get my magnet train pass and thrash misty.

Oh and since i can't say it on the main thread due to closedness, I love the jirachi and celebi events, can't wait for rayquaza's and the others. :D

EDIT: Oh and for those people about the bug contest, I dunno what is up with it but the 2nd bug contest is all wonky and stuff -_-

As of Beta 5, no there aren't any events to get the other 2 johto starters.
What do you mean you deleted the ghost? There's a perfectly legit way to get rid of them...

Spoiler:

Get the Ghostbuster from Silph Co., return to Johto and to the Burned Tower to face Morty who will fix it allowing you to travel to the East and West of Cerulean.

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

Same here, After i caught HO-OH i had a masterball from nowhere. But Ho-oh was holding sacred ash as well.

No, you can't. By the way, Solrocks are only available at Victory Road.
And I guess the Bug-catching contests are held randomly. Yes?

The bug events are held twice - once after the ecrutreak city gym and another after you beat Mahogany gym.

the prizes are Sun stone -1st
Everstone -2nd
Sitrus berry- 3rd
Oran berry - booby prize

Pinsirs are an almost sure way of getting 1st

Um. This is a question... Uh How do you get both Fly HM and Rocksmash HM i have been looking all over for them and never seem to find them i already have 7 badges T_T
And i can't get the 8th W/O Rocksmash T_T

you get after you beat The Cianwood gym, just talk to the woman in front of the gym.

Does anyone know where to find treecko?

 

[Tony Montana]

Does anyone know where to find treecko?

Spoiler:

Treecko is found at the national park, when you go through a "Secret Path". Battle the girl and when you win she will give you the treecko.

Bite Bug.

This might be a bug, but i noticed that secondary effect of confuse ray and bite ALWAYS work. for confuse ray this isnt a problem becaise the confusion ends a turn later, but with Bite!!! It ends the game, is there a way to counter this or do my pokemon just have to be faster than the pokemon that is using bite?

And Prof. Elm calls me about the GS ball after beating Surge and Sabrina rite?

 

[hi sir tomato my password is syvniti]

why can't i com into the icecave?

 

[Vuallum]

why can't i com into the icecave?

You either haven't fought Carlos, or you aren't playing the most recent beta.

 

[Galbert]

(SPOILER)
How can I find a Bagon?

If you have Beta 5, you can get it at the game corner in Celadon for 8,888 coins.

 

[jethrothekid]

Does anyone have any tips for getting Hoenn pokemon? I've ran arond in the grass around Route 29 and 30 for hours upon end and I've only found one wurmple.

Bluntly, no, there is no way to make hoenn pokemon appear more often, as they are made rare even if they're usually common.

I'm a bit of a noob on this form. So, I'm not sure if I should ask this but, how long/when is SG Beta 6 going to be released? I love the game and am very anxious for the release.
