Pokemon Platinum - The definitive thread: Mach 2 (In-Game Discussion)

[Tracker]

Does anybody know if you can bring Sky-Form Shaymin, or Origin Form Giratina over to D/P?

Giratina is a no. Shaymin is unconfirmed.

 

[RBG]

Does anyone know the new Platinum moves given to Pokemon?

I know Scizor gained Bullet Punch and Darkrai gained Nasty Plot... what else?

And what about the battle frontier tutors? Were those announced? o_o

All the new level up moves are in the front post

Tutors have been rumoured but not officaly announced/revealed by pokebeach/serebii

Does anybody know if you can bring Sky-Form Shaymin, or Origin Form Giratina over to D/P?

Yes, but they turn back to the land and another formes

 

[MetaNite]

Well that sucks. You HAVE to get Platinum in order to use alt forms... rip off.

 

[Harms]

What's the deal with the battle frontier rumors about Darkrai and Shaymin? Do you really get Oaks Letter/Members Card after winning "X" amount of mtaches?

 

[zukirin]

It is still just that, a rumor. Nothing has really been confirmed yet about prizes gained by winning X battles in the Battle Frontier

 

[Chou Toshio]

So I just cleared Hakutai City Gym (Grass). If anything, it's easier with the new layout. The clock in the center basically directs you to your next opponent, and you only need 3 wins. The gym leader is the same, same pokemon. Nothing really interesting thus far.

Bullet > Quick Attack, Scizor is a demon X__X

Hey, I want to breed some pokes in platinum, but the natures...japonese!wtf X_X anyone have a list of the japonese natures?xP

P.S: I got a psyduck shiny, the first shiny in platinum :3

 

[Kristy Haruka]

Aww how sad. Flareon/Entei didn't get Flare Blitz and Ampharos didn't get Tail Glow!? Why does EVERYTHING have Bug Bite and Feint now? >_< I'm glad the worms do... they finally get stab. XD

 

[Ellington]

Ahem, now that we have curse bibarel, we really need to get simple fixed on shoddy. Its going to increase its attack and defense by 2 in one turn, with a stab quick attack negating the speed loss. Hot damn!

 

[SwinubToupée]

It's been posted a few times already, but here you go.

 

[RobertM]

Is Giratina's catch rate still 3?

 

[Primevil]

I agree, cures bibarel will defiantly be fun to use.

What did you expect? It's a "japonese" game.

 

[Chou Toshio]

Ok, where I expected Cynthia to show up, your rival shows up instead.

Rival: Toshio, you came here to see the pokemon statue right? I'll check it out with you!

*two walk up to statue* (Cyrus is there looking at it)

Cyrus: So this is the Hakutai pokemon statue. To change the shape of the world-- the worshipped pokemon of time and space from Sinnoh folklore . . . . . . I must discover the truth.

*Cyrus walks up to you*

Cyrus: Excuse me *Cyrus walks off*

Rival: Ah!! Just as that guy bumped into us, I had a flash of brilliance!! The way to become the strongest trainer!

Rival: K, listen up . . . . . .
Rival: Hit all your moves!
Rival: Dodge all of the enemies moves! (Wow, even ingame we see a garchomp discussion . . . lol)
Rival: If it's that way you can't lose! A trainer without peer!
Rival: So have a good look at the statue, later!


Ok, then Cynthis shows up and it's pretty much the same.

 

[Mario With Lasers]

Got my Platinum FC. Does anyone wanna help me transferring my pokémon to my Diamond to level them up with infinite Rare Candies and then, trade them back?

 

[remix01]

[Tracker]

Wait, so you CAN'T use the GTS to transfer?

 

[Kawl]

Ok wait a note for the players playing through the platinum rom:

If you go into the building in Eterna City to kick out the team Galactic guys, the first guy who talks to you is Handsome in disguise.

. . . oh wait, he reveales himself for a sec, so I'm sure you guys could have figured that out yourself.

 

[remix01]

There goes the neighborhood. Darkrai and Nasty Plot.

Scizor has both Bullet Punch, Quick Attack, and Technician. Its like a Bulky Lucario o_o

 

[Kittymew]

Sky Forme Shaymin turns back to Land Forme with _any_ contact with d/p. Trade screen, battle, etc do not work properly from testing this morning.

 

[Mario With Lasers]

Jesus people, wait until Saturday :/ CoroCoro's scans and that Giratina video already shows we WILL be able to use the new forms in Wi-Fi/Wireless.

 

[Aldaron]

Still no confirmation on the move tutors?

Comon...can't wait...

 

[c l e a r]

can't wait for Fridge Rotom to use in UU.

Shaymin CANNOT learn Roost, so only the Specs/Scarf version seems variable.

Ice Shard, Stealth Rock still owns it pretty hard tho.
