Step 1: Transfer Jirachi to Pokewalker.
Step 2: Go to the new area in the Pokewalker.

It's not really such a hard concept to grasp.

Notched-ear Pichu sprite is cute :)

Anyway, from those new screenshots, we can infer a few new things. Firstly, breeding differences are in, and not just an unobtainable part of the game (like Bonsly in Pokémon XD). However, since the pose of the notched-ear Pichu is different from that of the regular Pichu, they won't be able to put thousands of possibilities in. So I think that only a few Pokémon (baby Pokémon?) will have any differences.

Secondly, the Arceus event seems to involve the player. In the screenshot, he is shown standing on the top symbol; this is probably the way of choosing out of Dialga, Palkia and Giratina (stand on the respective symbol). Also, there are hundreds of Unown in the foreground. This suggests Arceus has a link to the Unown; perhaps Arceus gave each Unown a small part of its power, and when hundreds of Unown gather, this is amplified (purely speculation)? Also, the presence of Unown implies that it takes place in a hidden part of the Ruins of Alph.

That's all for now :P

EDIT: Actually, I was wrong (I should read the article properly next time); the Arceus event doesn't take place in the Ruins of Alph, but a new area.

Might the NOP be in mid-animation?

And the Arceus event takes place within the Ruins of Alph, called the Shinto Ruins ;)
 
to clear it up, the pokewalker is not just a thing where you put your pokes in-you can actually move it around, and I think you can battle with it. Think of it as a mini mini mini HG/SS. if you send jirachi over, you get an extra area to go to.
 
Looking at Arceus following Gold it seems that they used the exact same sprite that was in DPPt so maybe not all pokemon will be scaled down in size like Steelix was and pokemon that had previously had large overworld sprites (Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, basically any legendary) may retain that sprite.

I think a pokewalker is a kind of device where you send 1 pokemon over and you actually dont play it. From what I've read from different places you hook it on to your belt buckle or in your pocket and it counts your steps as you walk or run so you can lvl up pokemon while playing sports or out doing some errands. At least thats what I've read.

You can actually still meet and battle wild Pokemon on the PokeWalker.
 
The Pokewalker is certainly interesting device to level up your Pokemon quickly, I hope the US version of HG/SS has the Pokewalker already packed with it like the Japanese one.

Some loser is going to invent a device that tricks the Pokewalker into thinking someone is wearing it and walking with it. (like sticking it to a car *fat people for sure*), and have lvl 100 Pokemon in no time. Also, you can have up to 3 Pokemon per Pokwalker, I think thats what Serebii said.

I thought someone would do that too... but im using my pokewalker for real.

like having lvl 100 pokemon really means something...

For tourneys, battle frontier (for any Pokemon above 50) and battling friends over local wireless, it does...since the 'auto lv100' isn't in any of those. Also, some Pokemon learn important moves at very high levels, like Shymin, Arceus and Leafeon..etc.
 
I'm guessing the Pokewalker will be like a pedometer (or whatever they're called). They'll probably use it to sense the motion as if you're walking, so the car idea probably won't work. Again though, if you're really lazy, you could just shake it for a few minutes. Oh well, I"m a runner so I'll be doing it fairly. And again, minus learning new moves, there's no real reason to level up to 100 other than moves and bragging rights to your friends really.
 
I'm going to love the PokéWalker! I jog every night so this'll be fantastic for leveling up when I'm out! This game looks like its gonna be awesome. Hopefully they will release the Walker though.

Paint mixer? Already invented.

I don't care. Hopefully the world starts to ignore lazy people, that way those lazy genes will be weeded out for future generations.
 
Does anyone know how many Experience points the PokeWalker gives per step? I hope it's more than one, because then the average 1,000,000 Exp. to Level 100 would take 100 days if you walked 10,000 steps a day... Training your Pokemon in-game could do that in less than a week.

Might want to step back and see who is more of a loser, the guy marching around for days with his Pokemon tamagotchi pedometer, or the person who doesn't want to waste days doing what he can do in minutes to the same effect.

paint can shaker^
 
What I don't like about the pokewalker is that it is shaped like a pokeball. I mean... look at the size. Who is lame enough to have a pokeball shaped thing attached on your belt?
 
I'm not going to go through 64 pages, so in this game, are all pokemon (1-493) sprites going to be redone, or just 151-252?

Also, have they released any sprites yet?
 
Is the Arceus event that activates lvl 1 dragons the lvl 100 arceus that is being given away this summer or is that arceus activating another one like the movie regigigas and can the event arceus only be obtained via platinum or can you get one with D/P. And imagine Giratina following you, that things overworld sprite was massive
 
The Pokewalker thing seems interesting, is it really like a pedometer?
And please could someone post a link to a photo of it?
(Sorry it is too long to read 64 pages to find a link =P)

BTW, Hi everyone, I'm new to these forums =).
