Anyone got a "Pikachu-colored Pichu" they can trade to me?

No copy of D/P/P? You can get them over Wifi right now.

Is there a summery of what each of the event pokemon traded into HG/SS unlock in the game?

Jirachi unlocks edge of the night sky pokewalker course

Pikachu coloured pichu unlocks an event to get a spikey eared pichu

Groudon and kyogre on each game are event pokemon, if you have them both on the same game they unlock rayquazza.

Arceus unlocks an event to get a level 1 giratina with the griseous orb (only way to get it on HG/SS) or dialga and palkia with their orbs, you only get to choose 1

Shaymin unlocks the gracidea flower so you can get sky forme (needs to be the special ones from the events)

Think thats all of them.

Can you choose what battle theme to use in an online/wireless battle, or does it just use the Johto trainer battle music?

Thanks for the reminder. I'll have an extra to trade someone else. Can you have more than one pichu on the same card? Say trade one from diamond to platinum.

So, is there a way to tell if your Pokemon have good or bad IVs in this game?

Not going to do the IV and EV thing yet, but just wondering if they made it any less of a PITA.

Nope still a nightmare to work out your IV's

Will anyone be doing some kind of trade thread?

Whats up with the Wii interaction in this game? There's an option in the main menu but don't know what this is.

You can get messages sent to your Wii when your GTS trades go through, I think. That's if the GTS is even in this one, if not then IDK :lol

A note to Uk Gafer's, HMV are giving away a dsi/ ds lite case with Ho oh or lugia on depending on which game you buy, it also has a space for the pokewalker as well.

Damn... for some reason I thought Falkner's Pidgeotto was level 9.

It totally destroyed me since my highest level Pokemon is 10. Looks like I'll have to grind a bit. First time I'll ever have to do that. Granted, I used to just raise one Pokemon, rather than 4-6.

I have the figures already, dont mind it being too big and it has Ho-oh on it so its anything but ugly :lol

On another note if anyone has an event Jirachi up for trade let me know what you want for it, im not sure if the Uk is going to get this event so best to just cover all the bases.

My Cyndaquil just evolved into a Quilava and I still haven't faced the first gym leader yet.

BTW there was a guy standing next to the gym and I think he was a parody of Yoda. His speech pattern is way too similar.

My Cyndaquil involved a little too fast aswell, at the bellsprout tower, but am really digging the Quilava sprite though. Heading to the first gym now.

Been playing about 90 minutes. Team so far is Spearow, Sentret, Weedle, and Chikorita. Trying to level them so I dont have to take Faulkner's crap when I get to him. Always hated fighting him as a kid.

I would bang a hot farmer!
I ended up placing two orders on Dell.ca for HG and SS because trying to order both together doesn't get the $8 saving on both of them. I'll be giving SS to my cousin's son for his birthday because I know he'll love it and I can steal all his good Pokemon. :D

I completely blame Firestorm for me buying these after all the posts he has made encouraging us to buy HG.

I also picked up the guide from Amazon.com since I had a $25 credit there that they gave me for canceling my Mega Man and Mega Man X Complete Works books even though they did ship the books to me. :D

Mareep is located just south of Violet City, and there's a house where you can trade Bellsprout for an Onix if you're desperate. Geodudes can also be found in a nearby cave.

It's such a shame that the Flying Pikachu won't have Volt Tackle, which would have made a humorous physical Raichu set possible at last.

So, I kinda overslept (by a lot, still getting over being sick). Called GameStop to see when they were closing (figured the earliest would be 7/8pm, forgot it was Sunday) & they were just closing :lol Ah well, at least it gives me some time to fix my NWC connection problems. I can see someone in the lobby, invite them to trade (or vice-versa) and either I (or the other person) get's disconnected >_< I've reset my Modem, Wired Router, AirPort Extreme N router numerous times & no dice. I've even switch DSs (I have a launch DSPhat & figured I'd try my sister's DSLite) & there was no change >_<

I know I gave up on Pearl waaaay too soon after defeating the Elite 4 (weeks of nothing but transferring from Leaf Green and Emerald, breeding and berry harvesting got me down), but what in the hell are that bat thing and that noseless monstrosity?

Amazon's making the decision on which version to get rather easy. Soul Silver is whopping $2.45 cheaper and assuming that price stays till I get my GoWIII credit, that is the version I'm getting.

Amazon makes life simple. :D
