Goodbye, Crobat!

Welcome, Shiny Shuckle!

P.S. if it wasn't for FoorNinja, I wouldn't even had thought about Shuckle. Thanks man! :D
 
I think I remember catching the legendary dogs with a single level ball with my level 100 tyranitar in front in the original gold version. Is it still possible to do in the remake?

This game is like an MMO almost. So much you can do on any given day.

Question, which would be better: Flying Pikachu or surfing Pikachu? I would assume surfing.

Also, these kinds of Pikachu from the Pokewalker, you can evolve them, right?

Sure it's possible, but extremely unlikely.

Whoo. A Japanese event Arceus will unlock the Sinjoh Ruins event in the U.S. versions. So now I have a Level 1 Giratina in SS. :)

Haha..walking around with a Giratina is so weird..you're the only one walking around with this gigantic..aracnic..rare..creature..and noone notices..and then, you talk to "it"..and it's all smileys and exclamation points. :lol

O= Me wants.

If I have time later this month, I might start an event Arceus lending service to NeoGAF members with at least 1 year of posting history and 1000+ posts, and starting with posters I'm familiar with. Stay tuned ;)

The Arceus/Giratina thing..is an event unlocked by taking an "event Arceus" (like the ones given at Toys R Us last year, etc..), trading it to SoulSilver, and taking it..to the Ruins. From there, the characters proceed to investigate the ruins, then blah blah blah..with Arceus, you're given the option to get an egg containing either Giratina, Dialga, or Palkia...all at Level 1, but you only get to choose 1..so it's a matter of preference.

I choose Giratina, simply because I had the preorder figurine from Platinum, but never got it on that game. :D

Thanks!

I'd probably get Dialga since if anything I'd get Platinum eventually, and already have Pearl. Since they're at level 1... are you able to manipulate the natures/IVs in any way? It's unlikely I'd ever try to but it wouldn't hurt to know. :3

Bwaha, he's huge! Are there any other pokes that take up that much space? So far, it seems like all my pokes are about the same size.
Groudon :lol Maybe not that size, but when you're walking upward (and stop), you won't see your character :D

fernoca, where are the ruins located? I have an Arceus.
 
^Go to the Aplh(sp?) Ruins with and you will eventually got to the Sinjoh Ruins where if you only have Arceus in your party you can enter a place where it'll create one of teh 3 legendaries.

I caught a Schyther days ago, but a f*cking METAPOD won instead.

Also reposting so that more people will hunt for Shiny Charmanders

It works on IVs rather than total stats, I think.
=(

I though the only NPC who could win a contest like that with a Metapod would be this guy here.

I could randomly try Metroid Killer's contest (once again awesome job) but can anyone trade me an English Charmander? what do you want for it? I have some HeartGold exclusives.

EDIT: thanks a bunch! :)
 
Can anyone tell me why Outrage is considered a useable move now? I haven't kept up with the metagame for a long while, but I've always thought of Outrage as the move you use when you wanted to give a Steelix or something a free switch-in to Rock Slide your dragon into the grave. Is it just for late-game house cleaning when you know what to expect?

THIS IS WHY THAT CHARMANDER WAS ABANDONED IN THAT EPISODE OF POKEMON

They upped the base damage from 90 to 120.

I'm not into the Metagame, but what I have read about it is that it's considered as a last resort Dragon Counter move, when shit is going down the drain you go all out with Outrage.

Also JGR if you want the Arceus now I can get in the Union Room and lend it to you.

Cool. I'll head to the room.

Do I have to do anything outside of going to the Alph ruins?

Try to the enter one of the houses there(close to the East Entrance to the Alph ruins) with only Arceus in your party and that'll trigger the event.
 
How long does it usually take until a Charmander hatches? Reason I'm asking is because it takes around 10,000 steps for a Bagon to hatch and I've hatched 12 of them not getting the nature I wanted.
 
Cool beans. I;ll head there as soon as I can.

Also, I'm in the room, MK.

Get a Magmar/Magby with Flame Body, use the bike up and down Goldenrod and it'll take about 5-10 minutes.

According to Serebii.net it takes 5,120 Steps to hatch a Charmander.

10455 for Bagon, 5355 for Charmander.

Though get a pokemon with Magma Armor or Flame Body(slugma, magmar) in your party and you cut half of the steps, so a Charmander is only 2678 steps.

Edit: Hmm I don't see you in there JGR what's your FC again?

Thanks guys! Guess I'll join in with the rest of you guys. Anyone have a Japanese ditto?
 
Linkhero1 said:
I don't like asking for stuff but I wouldn't mind a Japanese Ditto as well.
It's not asking when I'm giving them away ;-)

I was standing there for a while. My FC is 0002 5730 8163.
Hmm why can't I check my friends FC anymore? I had you in my palpad but couldn't get the FC... so I deleted and entered you in again... And now you are there...

Weird.

^It's the Arceus Event where you can get one of the Dialka, Palga, and Giratina monsters

I actually know what I want, Giratina. Especially since I have Diamond and Pearl, so I can easilly get the last two.

I'm kinda leaning towards picking up HeartGold now. Then I get two of everything, I can pick another Johto/Kanto/Hoenn starter and another one of the Arceus Pokemon (in this case Dialga, completing my collection of Sinnoh Pokegods.)

AND I'd have an extra Pokewalker. Hrm... I did get both at the same time when I was a kid. Should I try and replicate the experience? :lol

But is that really worth the price for an extra game??? You can get all the startes free from me and others in here, and I'm sure there's a kind soul who'll trade his Sinnoh Gods to you(if so tell me as well!)
