PoorLepRecon Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Look for phats. My DS phat works really well, and I bought it around launch time. Gamestop and Ebay should have them for $50 or less. I love my phat. The DSL and DSi are too small and the DSi can't even play GBA games. Why do people love the DSL/DSi so much? DSL's have brighter screens. That's the only feature I like about them. I tried playing Castlevania on one and my thumb stuck out halfway onto the touch screen. It's way too small. DSi's have all those little features that you don't need at all, like a camera. DS phats are the best, plus they are built like tanks. It's not going to break easily.

They just turned the DS into something that every up to date model of cell phones has except it can play DS games. Why not just carry a cell phone and a DS phat and you get everything the DSi has but with GBA compatibility! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like being able to transfer my pokemon from the GBA games. Having a GBA player is also very convenient.

RayOxide Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Since Houndour is a pokemon from the GSC gen, but you get it after you go to Kanto, do you think if someone gets one you can trade me it? :D ??? I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racheya Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I'm either going to get Silver or wait for the remake of Crystal to come about. I have a great affection for Crystal, it was the first Pokemon game I ever had and the one I still think is the best. I like silver though, my dad got it somewhere and I played it a bit but I liked Crystal far more I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog]. I am an [Ex-Moderator].

Maze Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Gold was one of my first games, and one of my favorite games. I want to get a DS to get one of these remakes. Probably getting whichever one has cooler Pokemon. A bit off-topic of my above post: I never found Lugia in Gold, just [garden tool]-oh. Where do you find Lugia?

In the remakes you can get both, in Gold and Silver you could get one or the other. Crystal had both I think.

I have a great affection for Crystal, it was the first Pokemon game I ever had and the one I still think is the best. I like silver though, my dad got it somewhere and I played it a bit but I liked Crystal far more Crystal *was* the best pokemon game. The big thing missing from Crystal was the physical/special split and more moves. :D I want to get a DS to get one of these remakes. Probably getting whichever one has cooler Pokemon. Since a massive amount of people are getting SS first, you should get HG just so we can balance it out between the TIF community. ;) By the way, I need to know who is getting SS on the day it comes out? I'll get like a week after. And in a week people can easily finish the GSC line and get to Kanto.. I need Houndour in my team, end of story :( I dont need a siggy no moar.

Maze Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I have over $100 in Best Buy gift cards stocked up in my room. I should use them to buy a new DS. But I don't think Best Buy sells the phat DS's. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riku3220 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 They work for all 3. It'd be kind of stupid if Platinum only worked for Platinum and Diamond only worked for Diamond wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so the FC is with the DS then? And not the game itself like with Wii? No, it's for the game but it's compatible with all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the remakes you can get both, in Gold and Silver you could get one or the other. Crystal had both I think. Crystal had both (you had to get them in odd ways though, never bothered myself) and the main one though was Suicune. You could get both in all three games. The title one was just the one you got first, with the item from the Goldenrod Radio Tower. In G/S it was [garden tool]-oh/Lugia, in Crystal it was Suicune. In G/S the other came later, after getting an item from some old man in the city where Blue's gym is. In Crystal I remember I never got [garden tool]-oh because you had to beat the Battle Tower for its item -.- I think Lugia was from the old guy still, not sure though.

Maze Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I've heard from friends that the biggest problem with wifi is that everyone has all level 100 Pokemon. Is that true? I think you can only battle with Pokemon under level 30 (or 40, I forget) on WiFi. In HG and SS, there needs to be good matchmaking. I want to match people who's pokemon are around the same level as mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauper_kid Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Why would you want to do WiFi Pokemon battles? The person who has spent the most training their Pokemon is just going to win.... And it takes no skill.Just like Runescape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it takes no skill.Just like Runescape. Why get a job? The person who has worked hardest will make more money than you. Why play a sport? The person who has worked hardest will beat you. Why play video games? The person who has spent the most time playing will play better than you. If you want to quit life, go ahead. Because you're not going to get anything out of it. Not even the satisfaction of winning, because it didn't take any skill. @Mazemout: If their levels are lightyears ahead of yours, that won't matter.

PoorLepRecon Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 On wifi, the levels are set to 100 automatically. Your stats are adjusted accordingly. Everyone is on an even playing field.

PoorLepRecon Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 Since absolutely everyone is getting SS i might get HG... :( 63% is not absolutely everybody. But it is the most popular choice. Though, why do you want to get the version opposite of the majority?
