Pokemon Gotta Catch-Em-All

I'm pretty sure Pokemon still only allows one save per cartridge, otherwise SoulSilver would have had multiple slots.

Does anyone have fire pigs boning down? I'd like to get my hands on a baby fire-pig wrestler thing.

Unfortunately that seems like the only thing that we don't have a female of in the collective. I had a RL friend that is starting up soon and I'm going to try to talk him into restarting the game until he gets a female fire pig.

I have a Ditto. I can breed anything.

I have a hand on a friend's DS at the moment. Should I be able to put my cartridge in their DS, and start a new game in order to get a female Tepig, then sprint through to beat the first Gym, give the female Tepig to a random goodjer, and then take my cartridge back to my DS, load my original saved game, and then trade for that Tepig from the goodjer so that I could start breeding them?

I can't think of a reason that shouldn't work, but I already have like 40 hours in this game and don't want to mess it up.

I can think of one reason that wouldn't work - the game forces you to save before you go into the trade room.

But yeah, seriously, I have a Ditto sitting in my Daycare, and I have access to just about any Pokemon anyone would want. Give me the word and I'll breed away. It's not like I don't have the time. ^_^

Then get to work!

Yonder is crazy for making the pokey mons do the deed so if you can get a female we can start us up a fire pig mill.

Man I need to fix my wireless so I can trade =)

Hey now, I said pages and pages ago that I was set up to do some mad crazy Pokesexings. Don't blame me if nobody saw it. And btw you don't necessarily NEED a female. As long as you have a Ditto, you can breed with either male or female to get a new one.

I probably already have an extra Tepig sitting in my PC from my first round of breeding in fact, so whenever you want to do the trade, set a time. I'll pop out some more just in case

240 actually.

I think once you're able to get the full 649 you'll get an upgraded box.

As to this, all you need to do to upgrade the amount of boxes you have is place one pokemon into each box you have available, close the PC, and open it again. You'll have upgraded from the original 8 boxes to 16, then do the same thing again and it'll upgrade to a max of 24 boxes.

EDIT: Alright, I checked and I do still have one sitting in there, but I bred up a bunch more in case anyone else wants one.

This is correct, one save slot per game. It's kind of a necessary evil.

Now that I got my 3DS in. I should be able to connect to my network. Will add to the doc in a bit and add everyone else.

Man, getting a female on these 12.5% ones is a pain. You can all pay me in beer for the army of Zorua that (Yonder?) will produce.

I now have itty bitty electric eels for anyone that wants one.

I'm reading reports that the Zorua (the pre-evo to Zoroark) from the Gamestop events can only be male and the Zoroark can only be female. Grrr. I'd been trying for like an hour to achieve the impossible.

Okay, I gotta say this because it's been bugging me for a while. I keep looking on the Global Trade thing every so often for various Pokemon. What's driving me crazy though is when so many people post a Pokemon asking for something in return which is UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE. For instance, level 9 Serperiors (they don't evolve to Serperior until level 36) or Level 9 or under Zekrom/Reshiram/insertnameoflegendaryherethatyoucan'tencounteratthatlowofalevel. GRR.

Well, you can breed the two together to get more, so I would think that's a good thing.

Only just beaten the first gym so I'm a way of having anything to trade or fight with yet but always good to get prepared :)

Just to bump this up.

This shall be my first foray into Pokesex. I'm dropping them off at the Daycare right now. Brownchicken Browncow

Yonder, is there an indication when an egg has been made? I have the lowest chance for one, but in the older games you could tell because the old man in front of the daycare would be positioned differently.

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but if you're doing a bunch of egg-laying you should put a Litwick in your team. Their ability makes eggs hatch at double speed.

If you're just pedaling west/east along the road there, he'll actually call out to you.

Yeah, not entirely sure what the call out range is, but if you are biking anywhere on that street he'll call out to you right as you pass through the square in front of him.

Provided you have free space in your party.

True, however, Litwick can have one of three abilities - Flash Fire, Flame Body, or Shadow Tag (Dream World Litwicks only for this one). It has to be Flame Body for it's ability for it to decrease hatching time. Other Pokemon with Flame Body (or, for that matter, the Magma Armor ability) will work as well, but they do not stack with each other.

Pokesex successful! I have four baby Zorua. I'll be on for another few hours if anyone wants one.

I don't know what a Zorula is, but I'll take one.

On my way to a the trade room.

Do I need to bring something with me? This is my first time trading... ever..

Yeah, you'll need a pokemon of some kind to trade for it.

Bring some garbage trade fodder. Anything will do. Though if you have a spare Sawk (Black exclusive fighting Pokey), I'd be all over it.
I'm in the trade room now.

I don't have a Sawk. I'm just now past the first gym leader. I would be making an understatement in saying that I'm woefully ignorant of pokemon.

No worries, just bring something dumb and ugly.

I entered a union room, is that what I'm supposed to do?

Pokecenter > upstairs > Middle person

Thanks for the patience. I guess I need to learn how pokesex and all that works as well eventually.

Is this one that is suggested that I use?

Oh dang! Are you still around? Any chance I could get one of those off of you? I have Oshwotts and Tirtougas atm....can whip up Snivys to give you tomorrow if that's preferable.
