I liked the Red version the best, because of the Rare Candy trick :wink:

 

 

 

I caught Missingno :lol:

 

 

 

Hehe, the good old days. :)

 

 

 

Anyone else that remembers the InfraRed trading in Gold/Silver? I actually managed to fill my room, SNES/Snorlax and you name it. ^^

 

 

 

It's was quite a while since I played any of the Pok̮̩̉̉mon games, but It feels like I just have to buy a DS for this one.

 

 

 

Gotta catch 'em all!

i'm planing on getting diamond but that morning/afternoon/dusk/night/ and something else is going to annoy me to no end :(

 

that isn't anything new, really...

 

in a way, the game boy advance titles were actually a downgrade, losing animation and the time feature. the animation still isn't as good as it was then...

But it makes it more realistic. You wont try to catch a bat during the day outside. Either wait till night or go into a cave.

 

 

 

BTW, Was reading gamefaqs, and today is the day some kinda balloon pokemon goes in front of the wind works near the flower city. So, if you have pearl, go there. Its lve 22 and ghost/flying.

it would've been better if they stayed with morning-day-night and brought the animations back to crystal version quality (more than two sprites for the animation[/hide]

I think im gona get it today for kicks. which version is equivalent to the red versions? or which version is better?

 

 

 

The only real difference between the two is what pokemon and how often you get them. The only big thing that matters is what the legendary is that you get. The one that is on the cover is the one that is in the game.

 

 

 

Other then that, they are the same. I guess Dimond would be like red. Get wi-fi too, as that is the only way to catch them all. If you dont get dimond, you are limited to 150 pokemon (unless you get both versions, plus emerald/sapphire/ruby/firered/leafgreen.)

I have pearl, its not bad. Although i do admit the diamond legendary looks cooler.

 

 

 

If you get it, and get your wifi up, ill give ya a pokemon to help out. (Wi-fi only works after the first gym).

 

 

 

The good thing about these new games, the AI is actually good. I have to actually think about my moves, and switch pokemon in this one.

It's actually not hard to get all 3 starters. I've offered pretty weak pokemon for wifi trade for starters and got the two other starters. I just checked a day or two after I made each offer (both under level 10) and received the starter. Then you just give them Exp Share, and the trade xp bonus gets them up to the group level average really quickly, and it'll be like you never missed them.

I was going to import both Diamond and Pearl but a little bird told me I need the GBA and DS games to be from the same region to transfer pokemon. Does anyone know if this is true?

 

I'm not sure if I understand. You mean that in order to transfer the GBA pokemon to the DS games the pokemon need to be from the same pokemon region? If its that, not true. But if you mean like transfering pokemon from a european game from a american game etc, wont work.

 

 

 

Also, the pokemon u transfer to the DS from the GBA games can never go back to the GBA game.

I kinda want it, but only if i can figure out how WiFi works. Im tired of single player pokemon. I want to battle people and trade all over the world!

 

 

 

 

 

just like a computer...

 

you can also trade over wifi

 

like an auction, but differnt.

 

 

 

Already have it and know how it works :wink: might do good to read on.

Sorry, I meant the country region, not the regions that the pokemon were caught in. I'll just have to wait a couple of months then... :boohoo:
