^ Yeah, Feebas is pretty much a bitch. At least, from my 45 minute attempt in Pearl. Thank God for WFC. <3
Kinda felt the same way when someone traded me a Bagon (might have been MK, actually.
) I wanted it to be the last one I caught in the Safari Zone... As it stands, it still will be, I'll just evolve the ones I catch in the Safari Zone into Shelgon and Salamence.

lol I'm becoming the unofficial dreamcrusher
Though I know how you feel, and while you can always just throw the traded Pokemon away you still have this tingeling feeling that you touched something... 'unclean'
Anyway glad I could help out :lol :lol

Still no shinys in my 150 hour HeartGold file This sucks.

I snagged a Feebas on the very first tile I looked. :3
I also dislike shinies though.
If I ever come across a shiny while catching legendaries, I'd probably soft-reset to get a non-shiny one.
I'm closing in on 400 hours and I don't think I've seen one on this playthrough.Android18a said:Still no shinys in my 150 hour HeartGold file

I fought Misty in the rematch, traded a Bagon for Milotic on GTS, and bred the Milotic for Feebas. For such a weak Pokemon it sounds pretty hard to catch. :lol

Are you using HeartGold (stationary) or SoulSilver (roamer)? The answers are different.Fjord said:

If it's stationary, Nature/IVs are set when you start the battle against it. You can save and Soft Reset before the fight to try again if its unsatisfactory for you.

The stats of all stationary overworld Pokemon are set in stone at the moment you initiate the battle, shininess included. Red Gyarados is the only exception, as he's programmed to always be shiny. (For reference, this Gyarados' stats are generated in a similar manner to DPPt chained shinies.)Fjord said:

Waaaaayyyyyy back in the thread. :lol I'd start in late-June and work backwards from there. I've redone it like three times, and hunted around for it even more. XD You should have a good grasp on what's out there by now.
On that note, I still have to do the Ruins of Alph thing... Maybe I'll do that when I'm done with the Safari Zone.

I've actually resorted to playing the Battle Frontier for fun now. I think they call this Stockholm Syndrome. >_>
Though I am enjoying tearing up the Doubles Battle Tower with an all-ice team.
I also ended up making my own checklist:
- Defeat Lance & Clair in a double battle.
- Defeat rival at Indigo Plateau.
- Defeat all trainer rematches at their highest levels.
- Defeat all gym leader rematches.
- Defeat Elite Four rematches.
- Defeat Red.
- Obtain Kanto starter.
- Obtain Hoenn starter.
- Obtain all gift Pokemon and NPC trades.
- Obtain legendaries: Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Latias, Latios, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Giratina
- Obtain Spiky Eared Pichu.
- Obtain Gracidea.
- Obtain Seal Case.
- Obtain all Arceus plates.
- Obtain all phone numbers.
- Complete the Unown Report.
- Scour the entire damn map with the itemfinder.
- Misc random bullshit: Union Cave Lapras, Clefairy dance, vocab words, Primo's wallpapers & eggs.
- Win the Bug Catching Contest.
- Trainer Card goals: Elite Four, Shiny Leaf, Pokeathlon, Battle Tower, Pokedex
- Obtain every Battle Frontier colored print.
- Obtain every Battle Tower ribbon for my starter.
- Unlock event Pokewalker courses.
- Unlock all normal Pokewalker courses.
- Level-up all Safari Zone areas. Six areas done, other six are set-up. Literally all I have to do is wait.
- Get every possible ribbon for Typhlosion. I'm close to doing this. Probably just a happiness ribbon or something left.
- Upload a box snapshot and maybe do some other misc wi-fi stuff.
- Maybe get some more photo album pics? Meh.
- Pokeathlon: get some Supreme Cup records, finish buying the Data Cards, hit some more benchmarks for the hall of fame, etc.
- Celebi Event.
- Level my entire in-game party to 100. Sitting at 91 right now.
- Complete foreign Pokedex!lol)
I will probably eventually do everything except the foreign dex.

If you really want to do it you have me, so it is doable (except for Celebi)... but still, it would be some heavy OCD stuffSixfortyfive said:- Complete foreign Pokedex!

Battle Frontier and the Last PokeWalker course are the two thingd I gave up on. Other than the bragging rights and the 5 star card, I have no incentive to go through that pain again. And the last pokewalker course has nothing of interest to me.

A complete foreign Pokedex would include English, Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian, and German entries for every species.

Any of you fine gents have a Skarmory I could get my hands on?
Hey Sixfortyfive, since it's already marked off your checklist, could you tell me how to get the ! and ? Unown in HGSS? They are the only ones I need and Serebii says a new area should unlock when you get the rest but I can't find it anywhere.
What a coincidence, my first non-Gyarados shiny was a shiny Tentacool in the original Silver.Sagitario said:

Surprisingly not long. Overall maybe 4 hours SR'ing over a period of 3 days. Watched movies and surfed while doing it. I'd consider myself lucky though considering my cousin is doing the same with his Latias and he's still doing it now from the day Enigma Stone came out.

I know there's a trainer in the Viridian Trainer House that uses all 3 starters, but I don't know if that gives you the Pokedex data for it since that place follows some of the Battle Frontier rules.Axion22 said:

What is a good replacement for Noctowl?

This Shiny Leaf business is a pretty annoying way to get a trainer star. At least filling up the Pokedex isn't a total crapshoot.
Anyone know if I can repeatedly talk to my Pokemon in the same spot and still get the leaf? Walking around means more wild Pokemon encounters which means more time wasted running away.
Been doing this for the past 15 minutes and haven't even gotten my 1st leaf yet. Can't wait to see how long it takes to get all 5. :/
EDIT: oh, crap. now Mew is all pissed at me for talking to it non-stop >:[

Shiny Leaf locations are dependent on natures, I think. Look it up on Serebii. It's the easiest star to get.
