The Official Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver Discussion Thread

[Rad Lionheart]

I [tornado fang]ing hate all of you playing either of these games right now, especially those of you with Soul Silver.

Don't hate the player, hate the crack team. Or, the [Bumpity-Boom!] that decided to put it on the shelves early.

I agree Jelly

So shiny! 

[Ninja Lou]

I IS HAPPY!

Heh I should ask Quickie to draw a picture of you being attacked by Magneton. Good old Magnet Man. Never let me down.

The more appropriate picture would not be my Magnet Man attacking me, but rather him NEVER hitting you and then, after trading him to you, him hitting me ALL the time!

I have all 3 starters in their second stage, a pidgeotto, a beedrill, a togepi, the event Jirachi in my PC, and a couple utility pokemon.

[Hypershell]

Normally I want a Bellsprout...but I wanted something different, so I thought "I'll go with Oddish!" but I caught a Paras instead and thought "Never raised one of them, I wonder what it's like..."
I haven't regretted it yet.

A 100% accurate sleep inducer is never a bad thing, especially for captures.  The fact that it now gets a water immunity/recovery (Effect Spore is worthless if you're going to Spore on the first turn anyway) just makes it more awesome.

I actually booted Geodude for Paras since I realized my starter was the only one who could Cut.  That and got the Spikey-eared Pichu right away to replace my colored one.  Better attack IVs, and since it's hard-coded to never evolve, lets me use a Hold item.  Seems to always be Naughty nature.

The only disadvantages I see to Parasect is that it's 4x weak to three types (Fire, Flying, and Poison) and that it's ungodly slow.

On another note, my playthrough of SS has revived my love for the Cyndaquil line (especially Quilava who I always liked design-wise) and it's fun to rip through Johto with a Light Ball boosted Pikachu. 

[Sakura Leic]

Ugh none of my friends have Heart Gold and I don't have my DSi yet so I can't trade my pokemon yet.

[Rad Lionheart]

I am disappoint, Skarmory is only in SS and I'm playing HG. :C
So if/when I get my router setup to connect, who's gonna gimme a Skarmory? Cause I want one, he's badass.

Also, CycloDS Evolution 1.58B2 disables the anti piracy (At least, nearly completely, since I played for 3 hours straight without a freeze)

Anyway;

Team as of March 16th, 2010:

Shellder Level 37
Quilava Level 35
Ampharos Level 35
Parasect Level 35
Haunter Level 34
Xatu Level 34

[VixyNyan]

I think I can help with a Skarmory. When should the transfer start tho? By the end of the week maybe?

[Rad Lionheart]

I have no idea when I'll be able to get my connection setup, I've tried fiddling with my router's wireless signal myself and have been unsuccessful many times.
So I'll probably have to get some help sometime.

[Gaia]

Right now I'm in a feeble quest to catch two of the legendary dogs now (Sidetracking since I got the Maghony Gym Badge).

[Pyro]

Oh, I thought I'd advise anyone who's EV training their Pokemon in speed and special attack go to Route 43. Plenty of Flaffys, Girafarigs (Sp. ATK) and Pidgeottos (SPD) there.

[Lunar Knight Zeke]

I need some help transferring some pokemon from both my pearl and plantinum versions to my soulsilver game. If anyone is willing to help me drop me a message.

[Gaia]

Sometimes it's easier to have more than one DS, especially with the model ('Ol Plain, Lite, and DSi).

[Lunar Knight Zeke]

The problem I have is that I can't just go and get a second DS just like that. Lack of spare cash prevents that.

[Tickle Buffalo]

I guess I can do it. If you don't have that many pokemon to transfer.

Diamond can trade with the new games, right? Wait, of course it can. Be silly if it couldn't.

Good thing I'm getting mine next week, considering how there's only one person I know in my school that has Heart Gold.   Seriously why is everyone getting Soul Silver!

[Tickle Buffalo]

HG actually does have way cooler exclusives, now that I look at it. And everyone knows my opinion is the only one that matters, so...

[Black Mage J]

Why I'm just starting to grasp my mind against the concept of EV training.
And after reading that article on that, I feel like never doing that. Ever.

[Lunar Knight Zeke]

I just have to transfer six from pearl and six from platinum. That okay with you?

[Tickle Buffalo]

I'm not doing anything else right now, I guess. Just lemme get something to eat first.

[Lunar Knight Zeke]

Alright let me know when you're ready to go.

[Tickle Buffalo]

Alright, I'll just get some junks and be right with you.

ps putting in 3 fcs takes forever D:
