I need some help with the Safari Zone. I have been looking at the list of Pokemon that I can catch there from Serebii.net and some of them are confusing me. What is with this After x days. Does this mean after x days, the Pokemon will appear? Also when do the days start counting. Is it after I place the required objects or after I select the area and just leave it there?

The moment you get access to Blocks(which lure out certain pokemon), the game keeps track of how long the active Areas in the Safari Zone have been active.survivor said:
You get Blocks after beating the Elite 4 for the first time.
Since there are 12 areas and the pokemon that are lured out by the blocks vary in each area, you have to figure out which areas you want to have active and in which order. Once you switch out an area it resets the day count for that area.
Example: It's been 4 days since you beat the E4 and you find out that you want to get Riolu in the Meadow area. Luckily the area is already active, so you just have to place the required 10 Forest Blocks and 14 Peak Blocks and then wait 66 days.
Had it not been active, you would have had to switch it in and wait 70 days instead.

Yeah, after you select the area like "Marshland," those many days afterwards are when those Pokemon will start appearing.

That's a pretty good choice, although Metroid Killer suggested that you keep a couple of the lower days and swap them out when they "run up" so you don't get bored. Although I guess you can't go wrong either way, you'll still wait the same amount of time.

Hmm you are right, I haven't tested it myself though, too paranoid about anything Safari Zone.Gravijah said:

Hmmm, any good way to tell if an Eevee is at "evolve" levels of happiness? What should I be seeing when I talk to it?

Which also means there's a flaw in my explanation above... It's basically all about the blocks and not the areas.Gravijah said:
The blocks get 'upgraded' every 10 days they are in an active area. Once they are upgraded they'll never lose their 'power'.
Edit: Hmm maybe not... Damn now I'm getting all confused about the Safari Zone again! :lol Once I have that Solrock, Nosepass and Riolu I'm outta here!

And some of them completely unreasonable to get. 110 days for Gible and Shelgon, 70 days for Riolu...

I decided to say screw it and used a bunch of my stones to pad my Pokedex (almost have a complete Kanto dex!) I assume I can get more in the Pokeathalon?
Still better than some of the Pokewalker Pokemon. XD I won't get some of those until like three years for now.

Thank god I already have those. I haven't even started *anything* in the Safari Zone. My god this game is freaking crazy. So much to do >.< (which is good!)
I'm currently going to my 6th round in the Battle Frontier. I should be battling Palmer for the 2nd time, eh? What should I bring me? My team is Starmie (Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, Surf, Psychic), Garchomp (EQ, Stone Edge, Outrage, S Dance), and Charizard (Fire Blast, Brick Break, Hidden Power Grass, Roost). Is that good?
Oh and, Mt. Silver has the best music in all of Pokemon games. So goddamn EPIC!

I find it really annoying that I can check the friend codes of friends I have already registered, where's the logic in that?

Arghhh! Okay, how do I "take a nap in my bed" on the S.S Aqua? I've tried examining it from all angles and hitting every button while in it.

I am new at this whole trading stuff, so I really don't know what I'm doing, but if you are willing to help get my wife's Jirachi/Pichu over from Diamond to Silver I can help you with yours.
I am not sure what the easiest way would be to do it, but I'd be happy to help.
I'm thinking that I'll get on my Diamond game, have you trade your Nincada from your Platinum to Silver. Then while you are on Silver, have you trade my Jirachi/Pichu over there while I then go hop onto Silver to get them back?
Let me know if you are up to do it real quick and I'll post my stuff.

This game doesn't support the DSi's improved Wi-Fi does it?
OMG Aero said:
Sounds good, will get on in Diamond first then so we can do the Nincada switch over for you.
Diamond
3052 0329 5403
Soul Silver
2493 6871 9247
There's my two codes.
After we do Nincada while you are still on Silver we can do the Jirachi switch over while I'm still on Diamond and then I'll pop over to my Soul Silver game to pick them back up.
(EDIT - Also - be patient with me. I know that kids do this all the time so it can't be too difficult - but I haven't traded pokemon since link cables.

I have bred 2 boxes worth of Yanma and shattered dreams.
If anyone can spare a female Yanma, Modest nature I would be oh-so-grateful. In return I can offer up pretty much any TM. Thank you!
