Yep, just go here.

I've been thinking about buying an AR [Action Replay] since I've gotten tired on relying others to clone for me. However...

- Does cloning with an AR lead to eventual game destruction [and/or problems]?

- Does re-triggering events [like Mesprit/Azelf/Dialga, etc] have a chance of messing up your game?

- Does hacking event items [Arceus Flute, Shaymin Letter] have a chance of messing up your game?


I need to know, because those are the only 3 things I'd be using an AR for, and I'd like to know if doing them would be detrimental to my game's "health".

Thanks.

Reposting my question since its a new page.

Well, I've been cloning with my AR since Novemeber and havn't had a single problem yet. However, if you mess up the cloning process, your game will freeze. But that's it. My game has only freezed once (during a botched cloning) but my Pearl is fine.

Can't answer the other 2 questions because I haven't tried yet.

 

[Yoko Rains]

It will freeze, but none of the data will be lost right?

It froze but none of my data was lost. ;)

The games have backup savers iirc.

 

[Yoko Rains]

K, nice, thanks guys! Still need the other 2 questions answered, but at least the most important question was answered.

 

[Gmax]

OK, thanks Volteon. I have another question BTW. When you use Tailwind, is the turn you use it counted in the three turns mentioned in the description.

 

[OrbitingDeath]

Are moves like roar and whirlwind affected by speed? Or do they always go after the opponents attack?

As long as they're not being called by STalk/Assist, yes, they always go last.

If I have a sleeping Specsmence, and it uses Sleep Talk, is it stuck with the move it chooses? And does the said move still get the Specs boost?

Thanks.

STalk will pick one of your other moves, and you won't be able to attack more than once. After that it will fail. And yes, it will get a Specs boost.

If a normalized Delcatty uses Copycat and copies a Earthquake, for example, while it become Normal type or stay ground?

I'm pretty sure.

Sleep Talk when used with a Choice item works just once... It's like:
Salamence is fast asleep
Salamence used Sleep Talk, Salamence used Flamethrower!
~~
Salamence is fast asleep
Salamence used Sleep Talk - But it failed...

Tried it with Heracross...

EDIT: Beaten..

K, Thanks Volteon.

Hey, thanks!

 

[TheMantyke]

what are the messages the little girl gives you in emerald that says your pokemon has a flawless IV?

 

[Volteon]

The little girl tells you about Battle Palace, when Pokémon is above and below 50% HP and what it's likely to do.

The IV person is the oldman in house above Pokémon center and he says... well the stat is flawless.

 

[joshua]

Would a Lickitung with Wish/Heal Bell/Protect/Body Slam work, or does the lack offensive moves hinder it?

 

[Stoo]

Would it be possible (Albeit incredibly unlikely) for a porygon2 or something to skill swap trace to spiritomb who traces wonder guard? :P
Or does trace swap the acquired skill?
Just for lulz.

 

[The_Rider]

he says something like this "It's flawless, a thing of perfection!" or something like that at the least

 

[The Shadow Knight]

The way you described it is wonderfully outstanding, hmm that's what I would call it...

WonderGuard is Tracable, but not Skill Swappable
So it won't work.
And you can't Skill Swap Trace since when you use it, the ability is already changed.

A pokémon can have flawless stats when it has the least positive message.
They all can be found here too:

Are there any links to good jaa warstories?

Or any other interesting topics. I'm interested in the doubles environment and would like to start from there. I already read 5k runner's thread and Obi's smeargle discussion but are there any other good topics/warstories.

Reasking my question because it hasn't been answered yet.

 

[Evil Hamster]

Question a friend from another site asked.

Apart from the Flying Pikachu, is there a difference between the normal American 10th Anniversary Pokémon and the Bryant Park ones? Like their OT name and number? As far as I can tell there isn't but I keep being told there is by people on Serebii trying to make trades with me.

 

[Al_Alchemist]

Why was my poll closed? I checked the rules over and over and I did not break a single one. My topic was sort of like, "The Best Butterfly?" but it was about dogs ^ ^. On the poll when it said how many days do I want this to last I didn't type anything is that why it closed? Can I open it up again or repost it?
