Most likely the wrong section, but an answer would still be appreciated.

Has #stark and, for that matter, #smogon become servers avaiolable only if you register? I am greeted with a message that says only registered nicknames are allowed whenever I attemp to log in.
Thank you.
 
If I have a question about forum rules, where do I ask it?

It's about my avatar of Giovani. He's wearing his Earth badge and I'm wondering if that's too close to a rule violation because staff/important members have badges.

I doubt it but I haven't been here in forever.
 
Just a few quick Absol-related questions...

When you go up through Mt Coronet (Oreburgh route), can you find Absols in the FIRST SNOWY AREA? There's a patch that's 9x9-ish that'd be great for chaining. Or can you only find them on the second snowy area?
 
If you have two gba games, you can do this:

Migrate over 6 from the game you want to transfer them over from (Game A).

Set the DS's internal clock ahead one day.

Insert Game B, and choose migrate. When the game aligns with the current time, you can remove that game, throw in Game A, and transfer more Pokemon. You can do this as many times as need be, iirc.
 
I've got a couple questions regarding some 10th anniversary events I recently obtained. I'm not asking for a hack check, just some clarification.

I have a shiny Entei with the OT "10ANNIV" and ID# 00010 and a Raikou with the OT "10 ANIV" and ID# 00010. I'm just a little confused about with Id#'s correspond to which regional events (USA, NY, EU, etc.).

Also, the person I obtained the Raikou from "Apparently had a fateful encounter at Lv. 70" and was met at a "Pokemon Event" on Jul. 15, 2006. This might be a stupid question, but is that even possible?

Surprisingly enough, that's all legit, even the date on the Raikou. Here's some more info on them: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/10_ANIV.

I'm pretty sure that rule is just to keep people without badges from trying to make it look like they have badges, which your avatar is not doing, so you should be fine

I checked out the bulbapedia page before posting here actually, and according to it, any events with the OT "10ANNIV" come from Europe and should have the ID#06227, and my Entei has the ID#00010, the ID for events with the OT "10 ANIV" from America.

I was a bit skeptical of the Raikou because it has 30/31 for all its IVs. At the time these events were released, I'm pretty sure D/P weren't out anywhere, as the Japanese release date was 9/28/2006, and I thought all these events were only available on the 3rd Gen games and have to be Pal Parked into D/P/Pt?
 
Hey guys, what point (or which town/city) do you have to reach in Platinum to be able to trade? How early is this in the game?

Thanks in advance.
 
Would someone briefly explain to me how to use an Action Replay to hack perfect IVs?

Is it just that I need certain codes or that I need to create my own code and implement it to get that pokemon?

Sorry, I'm kind of new to this stuff. Thanks in advance.
 
When creating a Shedinja, will the created Shedinja have the same nature and IVs as the 'parent' Nincada, or are they randomized?
 
Quick Question:
Can NUs be used in UU tournaments?
yes, but not OU's

we are not supposed to discuss hacks here, google pokesav
 
A question about EV training.
So I want to train a Vileplume with four HP EV points.
Would a good way to do that is put a macho brace on it and fight two Bidoofs?
Is that how EV training works?
And for the the other 200 something stats I can fight lets say I want special attack I would have to fight 100 ghastlys?
I know this is a nooby question but I want to make sure I have this down before I go ahead and do it.

For the HP, that is a good idea. For the other stats, you usually want to put a Power item on the Pokemon to increase the Pokemon's recieved EVs by 4. So you can instead face only 40 Gastlys. To get Power items, you can try asking someone here for some.

EDIT: Darn, not ninjaed this time.

You should be more than a bit skeptical, that Raikou is an obvious hack if those are its IVs.
 
is a 29 HP IV a life orb number for a naughty salamence?

as in, would it be worth using a 29/31/31/31/31/31 salamence over a 31/31/31/31/31/31 one?
 
I have got a quick question about whirlwind and stealth rock and spikes.

If you whirlwind a pokemon and the other pokemon that replaces it, does i get hurt by stealth rock or spikes?

Secondly, Can you have spikes and stealth rock at the same time and will both do damage?

Yes and yes.

You want the HP stat to end in 9, so if 29 IVs does that, then use that.

EDIT: 1000th post in this thread! WOOT!
