Ummmm guys....I need help on getting a friend code....

Ok, I went to starbucks to try to get one, but the WFC thing wouldnt link up.....What am I doing wrong?

Leilong, I got your Dragon Scale. PM me if there's anything else you want.

Edit

I did have some story about me stealing Pokerus using Thief but it seems I was just really unfamiliar with how Pokerus was transmitted. I understand it now.

...

And now I have Pokerus so I can raise my pokes faster!

Haha Caesar, i love your "djibriel'ish" approach to games. Whenever i see you starting on a new game, you get REALLY into it.

--------------------

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Broccoli to die.

ok folks heres what i got, and before anything else pm for stuff u want.

I have all 493 shiny, all their stuff is maxed out for contests, and i have their moves maxed out with pp max.

they were taken from Action replay, so they r not legit.

If you want something just let me know with your Friend code.

I'll pm mine back

Well, the Regis are all caught, which took a while. I used roughly 50 Ultra balls between the three of them. Then, during the time it takes to sort out the internal clock, I went to get Giratina. I weakened him and caught him on the first pokeball. What luck!

Anyway, they're all ready to be transferred, i've done a few practise rounds in Snowpoint temple so it won't take me long (in theory) to get Regigigas. After that, i'll be ready to trade.

I also went and caught a Shuckle to see just how insane his defense growth is. I'm not yet interested in raising one, but... seriously. Wow. However, Caesar's moveset will benfit one baby, since its nature decreases Speed and raises Defence, which would work wonders, so maybe in the future...

I think you'll find most people here won't be willing to trade, since in formal competitions, Nintendo can find out these things.

I'm not interested in non-legit pokemon, sorry.

And I must apologize - my internet is giving me trouble. My copy of Diamond can read the WEP address just fine, but can't latch on to an IP. I have starters bred for Wizwurm and Clock Doc, and I'll post here again as soon as my connection is set up.

Hahaha. It's kind of true. I do get really obsessive with new games. I actually just beat Chrono Trigger yesterday after starting it like...last Wednesday or something. Working on beating the 7th Saga after starting that two days ago. And of course, Pokemon just never gets old. I have 250 game hours clocked on my DS. That's real sad.

I'm not really sure what to do at this point in Pokemon. I just finished the godly Dragonite I had intended to make for awhile, so I'm not sure who to breed and raise next. I was initially thinking about Gliscor or Tangrowth to try to wall some attacks, but I don't even use my real nasty wall, Dusknoir. I just use all offense in this game so they are pointless. Regirock will keep me busy for awhile if I end up getting him.

I was thinking of making a darkness-only team. The problem is, I don't think any darkness pokemon can learn Trick Room, so my Absol, Cacturne, Crawdaunt, and Houndoom would be useless. I just love darkness pokemon so much, though. I might just make an Umbreon for my team. He could maybe do something. I wish I could use Sharpedo or Drapion because they are real nice, but sadly their speed is not in my ideal range.

Hm...yea I think I might make an Umbreon if I have time today.

Edit

FBM: If you wanted to make a Shuckle someday, let me know. I think I have a relaxed one lying around with Gyro Ball and EQ bred onto him already. If he does still exist in my boxes, he has some great IVs (high HP and defense, 1-4 speed). If I don't still have one, I could easily breed a new one since my current shuckle is female.

I, like everyone else on this board so far, am not interested in non-legit shinies, mostly for the reason FBM listed. You get instantly DQ'd if any pokemon in your boxes are illegitimate.

No one willing to help? I always get an error....SO any help is abliged....I just can't figure it out...How do you cahnge interent settings

It's tough to help when you give us no information on the problem. You are just telling us it's not working. What exactly did you try? Did you try setting up your WFC settings before starting the game (that is, just in the DS main menu...that's where I think it is). You need to tell your DS what to be looking for before you can expect to connect usually.

--------------------

Is PJ

Have not tried the WFC thing, dont know where it is. My problem is that it says there is no access point, and that it can not connect....Went to starucks and tried there, no dice....Then went to the library, no dice, how do you get to the WFC menu?

It's before you enter gameplay, like, right below "New Game" on the first menu.

I have a question about some legitimacy issues...

I have in the past done some... illigetimate things... as I broke down and sharked a ton of crap over from my Saphire cart, but personally considered it "legitimate" off of an illigetimate game. It seems that D/P is aware of the illigetimacy, as you can't have a lv 5 Ho-Oh caught in the first forest of saphire.

Is there something ingrained into the game that toggles when fradulent activity is noticed, or can I just release those pokemon, and pretend like it never happened? There's not much I can say about the pokedex entries, other than I "traded" for them and then traded back.

And I legitimately have 2 master balls, as I've not used my D/P ball (saving for Arceus), and I hold-item pal-parked the Master Ball from my LeafGreen game over as well. The only things I have that are flag-worthy (minus the ubers, which I will delete) is an abundence of pokemon with EQ, TB, IB, FT, and Aerial Ace, as I put the TMs as hold Items when I pal parked the ubers. All of these have been used, so there is not a ton in my item bag, but there are a ton of pokemon that know the moves. I understand that these TMs can be gathered from battle tower, the Slot Machines, and Battle Revolution, but in the quantities I've had these, we're talking HUNDREDS of hours of playing to get these amounts legit, as I think I've gone through 7 or 8 EQs, 4 or 5 IBs, 6 or 7 TBs, and at least 5 FTs. Some of the other "flags" are legit things I've had, many of which came off of the GTS. Through the GTS, I've had:

1 extra Azelf
1 extra Uxie
2 extra Heatran (traded one to a cousin)
2 extra Giratina (used one to trade for a Heatran)
1 extra Mewtwo
1 extra Moltres
1 extra Suicune (lv 100 shiny that I think I traded off already)
1 Palika (I have Diamond)

I also have a Rayquaza that I legit traded for from a friend with Emerald back in the LeafGreen days. I didn't even realize that the Suicune was shiny right away, as their coloration is not that different.

Of the ultimate in legal/illegal, I started playing through my highly illegal Saphire game with my "dream team," a team I composed of sharked pokemon at low levels to raise as I play, and played through the storyline to the point I was able to catch the legitimate Kyogre with a Legit/Illigit Master Ball (as the legit one had been added to all the illigit ones ). And I proceeded to immediately Pal Park that baby over to D/P. So it could be simultaniously referenced as legal and illegal, as the pokemon itself was meant to be what it is, but it was recieved on a game that had nothing else where it was supposed to be...

I also still have my Cresselia, Azelf, Mesprit, Uxie, Dialga, Giratina, and Heatran that I caught on D/P, as well as the Mewtwo, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Suicune from my LeafGreen Pal Parked over.

Because of this, I acutally have an entire box in the computer I designate for legendaries.

Also if someone sumbles upon/has a shiny Psyduck/Golduck or Vulpix/Ninetales, I'm very interested. I have a lot of random crap, but I'll trade what I can. Of the most impressive random crap, is probably my Rhypherrior, who is EV trained in Attack and Defense, and has a relatively sweet move set, though highly inaccurate, stupid Hammer Arm...

I thought it was in the main DS menu but I was wrong. It's actually in the main menu of Pokemon D/P, before you start the game. There's Continue, New Game, Mystery Gift, etc, and then Nintendo WFC Settings. You have to set up the connection settings there before you can connect, usually.

Edit

leilong: I'm honestly not sure how the tourney officials or the game itself determine legitimacy. After all, pokemon can be sharked in to have exact trainer IDs and movesets and natures and IVs and everything, so they could be produced to not differ at all from legit pokes.

I've already told this story, I know, but I thought it was interesting so I'll tell it again. A friend of mine and ex pokemon pro entered the gamestop tourney when they had it awhile ago, but they wouldn't let him compete because they thought he was haxing. He had boxes and boxes of pokemon with perfect IVs (that is, 31s in all 6 stats) and they did not think that was legitimately possible so they wouldn't allow him to compete. Truth is, he figured out the RNG for this game and was able to rig it to give him perfect IVs whenever he wanted them, but they didn't care.

So there might not even be a real way to determine legitimacy of the pokemon. If there's speculation, you can be DQ'd from big tournies. I don't think you're in any danger, though, leilong. As you said yourself, everything you have and did can be done normally (I mean the excess of TMs, not the level 5 Ho-oh ). if you had several boxes of pokemon with perfect stats that'd be more questionable, but just having most of the legendaries is no problem, I wouldn't think.

Nintendo's Support Page

This page has a side option that will let you enter an error code that appears on either the Wii or DS, and assesses why it errored. You error code came up as a potentially temporary error, that said you should try again later, but being that it's Starbucks, it may not work.

This link should contain maps to the nearest locations to you that A) have wireless internet, and B ) are confirmed or unconfirmed compatable with the DS. I know all the McDonald's in my hometown are compatable, and pretty much anywhere with an unsecured Type G wireless network. (Lots of places tack a wireless router on their broadband and call it a, "Hotspot") Many places have a wireless network that is "unsecured" but doesn't actually connect to the internet until after you've said yes to a usage agreement in a web browser. If you go to one of these places, you can consider it, "uncompatable" with your DS, as it is impossible to agree to usage with the DS's wireless software. Sad but true.

When it comes to connecting to the internet on the DS, I am the master of finding out firsthand all the reasons why it's not going to work. None of this is speculation, but in fact things I've experienced, and then researched.

Edit

Also, speaking on Wireless, why on earth hasn't anybody created a pseudo Mystery Gift sender? With applications like PokeSav to hack, it would be fantastic to have a program that utilizes a Wi-Fi Signal receiver to pretend to be a mystery gift location. I'd almost pay for that.

*** MAJOR PERSONAL BIAS ABOUT TO BE RELEASED!!!! ***

No. Not worth the money. Go buy a generic wireless adapter.

The Wii/DS adapter is designed specifically for two things: the Wii, and the DS. You can go buy a generic wireless USB adapter, and reverse-feed it to be a bridge to your wired network through your computer, and then if anyone has a laptop (or any other wireless internet compatable device) they can also access it.

If you are worried about privacy on you computer system however, get the adapter just because the only thing allowed would be the gaming systems.

If you currently have more than one computer on the internet at your house, then it wouldn't be a bad Idea to just buy the wireless router. You can get a decent Linksys Wireless G router for $40 (and the little Wii/DS dongle thing is $50... ), that will support your entire house/apartment/dwelling.

Just remember, if you're getting some sort of a generic Wi-Fi source, Wireless G Compatable!!! I know it doesn't mean "Game," but if you just remember wireless G for gaming, it will be easy to make sure you get the right thing.

OK, I used to have wifi set up in my apartment....When my gf was living with me, the only problem know is that she took the router.....


Oh, and on another note, my computer right now is hooked up to a router, and I only run one comp as is...SO even though what you said might work for another person, I'll just buy a used router at game stop....

Thanks for the advice though

I use the USB wifi thing and it works like a charm. In the dorms, everybody used to connect to my router and it made it ungodly slow, but now I get really good connection speed and it's reliable. It had never disconnected me before, to the best of my knowledge, but sometimes (like if it unplugged while my computer is running) I need to reconfigure the settings on my Wii so it can connect. Of course, this is a 2-3 minute process so it's no problem at all for me.

Plus, I bought this USB connector for $20 at the Walmart near my college. Real small town == better prices, I guess. Definitely got my money's worth.

--------------------

Is PJ

I too own the WiFi USB adaptor. We have four PCs in our house, along with a laptop, and our Wireless router is incompatible with the DS. My dad didn't want any passer by to connect, so he configured it with a more secure form of code, (one that the DS doesn't understand and can't connec to,) and so I just bought the USB adaptor. It works a dream, I haven't been disconnected, and I can go anywhere in the house and stay online.

Now onto the matter of hacking, I've got a question. Is it possible to detect interaction with a hacked cart? The things is, I've been considering whether to use a GameShark to obtain the MysticTicket and AuroraTicket on my LeafGreen, so as to catch Lugia, Ho-oh and Deoxys. Seeing as it would be the items themselves that were hacked, not the Pokemon. would it be possible, to detect the hack if the Pokemon were then traded over to Diamond? Now, I know if I were to get Darkrai, Arceus and Shaymin, they'd obviously be hacked, but if I were to hack a different game for the items, catch them, and then trade them over, would they actually appear as hacked Pokemon, other than the fact they are currently unobtainable?

Edit

I also have a bit of a dilemma with my Raichu moveset. At the moment it is the following:

Raichu w/ Light Ball
Thunderbolt
Grass Knot
Focus Blast
Nasty Plot

Now, the Light Ball won't be changing, so its Attack and Special Attack will already be doubled. But I now have access to a surfing Pikachu. Because of this, I could make a number of move sets, (though none with Nasty Plot), involving the above moves, plus Agility, Rain Dance and Thunder. It could even go down the mixed sweeper route, and take some physical moves as well, though I want to avoid Volt Tackle, as its HP isn't amazong, and could end up even OHKOing itself. In fact, the only Physcial moves I'd want would be Iron Tail and Return. I'd rather avoid Iron Tail's inaccuracy, and I'm already forking out for 8000 coins at the Game Corner for one Return, and might not be able to afford another.

But is Nasty Plot really worth it? The Light Ball already doubles its special attack, so Nasty Plot could be pretty pointless. Would it be a better idea to take Agility, and maybe Surf, Thunderbolt and either Focus Blast, Grass Knot, Return or Iron Tail, and if so, of those last moves, which one?

This post has been edited by Wizwum on 28th May 2008 10:29

I think the Light Ball only works with Pikachu, not Raichu. It's really unfortunate because that would make him really, really powerful, similar to Marowak. It only doubles his special attack, too, not his physical attack. That being said, a friend of mine used to have a Rain Dance, Thunder, Surf, XXXXX Pikachu and somehow was able to destroy people. I don't think Pikachu ever actually used Rain Dance, but I remember reading a match (printed off of Shoddy battle) in which it was raining and he absolutely dominated this kid with Thunder.

It is all personal preference, though. Raichu can't use Light Ball but he's more sturdy and faster so he'd be more practical. Pikachu is adorable and can Surf, though.

--------------------

Is PJ

Damn, I misread the entry - I saw the info about breeding a Pikachu or Raichu with it to get a Volt Tackling Pichu, and assumed that meant it gained the bonuses too. But it does double Attack as well as Special Attack, as of Generation IV. I guess its so that the bonus is also applied to Volt Tackle as well as other Electric moves. So now, that brings up the question: Pikachu's Attack and Special Attack are 55 and 50 respectively, so is it worth sacrificing your item slot for that slight bonus to the two stats? Via gut instinct, I'd say no, but that also means I'd need Nasty Plot to make a truly dangerous special sweeper, which would remove the opportunity for Surf. Unless, of course, someone has a Pichu from Pokemon Box: Ruby and Sapphire with Surf that they're willing to trade away, but considering the circumstances, I doubt they'd do that even if they had one.

So, I guess its back to the drawing board. I think I'll end up sticking with the moveset I listed originally, but thanks for the help.

I think the problem that would arise with the MysticTicket and the AuroraTicket is that those are available anyways. You could hack them in, get the pokemon "legit" and then transfer them over, but that doesn't stop the fact that those tickets are not available.

As for the Arceus, Darkrai, and Shayamin thing, this weekend Darkrai will be available. And if you can't get out to the event, then hacking that the day of would almost be legit, as timeframes on capturing would make sense.

Since I've got my two Master Balls, I think I'll use one on Darkrai, and one for Arceus, as I'm feeling lazy. I may try catching him, but whatev.

If you wanna try to work out a trade at some point, I don't typically use Return, and still have my TM. We could work something out and I could hold it a pokemon for a trade. Talk to me in PM or something, I have a few blanks that I would still like to fill in on my pokedex, so it could be a really easy trade.

Well, actually Light Ball in D/P (unlike RSE) doubles _both_ physical and special attack on Pikachu. That's why the standard set is substitute/focus punch/volt tackle or thunderbolt/grass knot or hidden power ice.

As for the events, they're mystery gifts, btw. If you're desperate, I can get legit ones through the actual distribution cart I happen to have kickin' around. Coz I'm cool like that.

I went and bought a USB connector, brought it home, set it up, and then my cousin's boyfriend came over and set up our high-speed internet box thingie to have wireless. So, the USB connector is now useless and I can't return it. Just my luck.

Anyway, I don't own D/P, but my sister does and she's really bored. Eventually, I'll find out her friend code and post it if anyone wants it.
