Is action replay necessary to pokesav?

Not necessarily, for instance if you have a flashcart all you need is your save data and Pokesav which can be downloaded.

Hello,

Have some way to take Mew and Celebi at 4th generation?

Via Pal Park, if you have Mew/Celebi in one of the older generation Gameboy Pokemon games. This may be irrelevant to the topic but you might be able to get rare legendaries at Pokemon events so look out for those!!
 
A question regarding downloadable event Pokémon and the like.

I am an American with an American DS and an American HeartGold game. However I am in Europe for the semester. If I were to log on to Wifi somewhere in Europe, would I be able to access the 10th Anniversary Mew that will be released online tomorrow?

On the same issue, I'd like to get some of the event legendaries in Pokémon Ranger Guardian Signs. If I buy the European version of the game, will it work in my DS and will I be able to access the American Wifi events, or have to wait for the European ones.

Thanks in advance!

If you're not getting !!! Pokémon, that means you haven't taken enough steps to meet the requirements for it. You need however many amount of steps it takes in that one walk (step counter doesn't carry over between walks, sorry) to obtain that Pokémon. Try taking a Pokémon with a type advantage for that particular route (you can look them up on Serebii or Bulbapedia) to reduce the amount of required steps.

Ahh, that makes sense! Thanks!
 
Im making my first BP team and its going pretty good. I have the idea of passng boost around until the final player and I have most issues that would break my chain out of the way.

But explosion worries me. I have a friend who loves using explosion Foretres.

I have one slot open what can i do to counter his explosion I don't have anybody who can one shot him with flamethrower or something...

right now im using

Lopunny
Scizor
Vapoeron
?????

Metagross

I dont really wanna use smeargle. Im only playing my friends and they wont use roar so im not worried about it. Im mostly interested in sturdy pokes =\

You can try a Ghost type, which are immune to Explosion. Drifblim learns BP and can pass many things like Calm Mind, Stockpile, and ridiculously huge Substitutes. Just watch out if the Forretress is carrying Payback. Otherwise, there are Pokémon with Damp to disable the move altogether. None of them learn BP though, so they might be better off as a BP recipient rather than part of the chain.
 
Is it safe to use the Day Care Centre to level up a Pokémon after I've maxed its EVs?

Example: I wanna get my stally Jumpluff to Level 100, but it has no attacking moves to defeat opponents quickly. It's already got the standard SubSeed EVs so is it safe to just leave it with those old folks?

Leaving the Pokemon with the daycare is fine, the only negative thing that can happen is loss of moves. As long as it isn't a Event / Egg Moves your fine.
 
Is it ok to start using pokes abilities from gen 5 in gen 4 like using a drizzle politoed or a lighting rod zapdos i would be making them via pokesav and using them in standard ou battles on wifi.
 
No. People sometimes get, for instance, Lucario which are poisoned, because Riolu evolved while poisoned, so they must not be cured.

Hey there, i personally run a Baton Pass team as well, and my advice would be to run BP Zapdos, or HP Fire Jolteon. I would try out Zapdos first because in HGSS it can be tutored Heat Wave (the 90 accuracy is good enough), while serving as an Agility passer. Having access to Substitute and STAB Thunderbolt also makes him a good choice. Behind a substitute, he can wreak havoc against Starmie, which would otherwise hit all of your team for at least neutral damage.

Jolteon is what i personally use, though since you need a fire attack i wouldn't suggest it in this case, though it is a backup incase Zapdos doesn't work. Note that i personally wouldn't even bother with Drifblim, it's never come up as a necessity to have a ghost for me, and Zapdos keeps up the offensive momentum while hopefully stopping him from exploding in the first place.

Also, explain to me Lopunny's place on this team? What does she do? I've never come across a BP team with a Lopunny lead before. I've always just stuck with the usual Protect SashJask lead.
 
I'm not sure if it is even possible, but how many Speed EVs need to be invested for Brave Tyranitar to outspeed Lead Machamp?
 
For your Brave 28 Spe Tyranitar, you need 252 HP/228 Def with a Chople Berry to survive Dynamicpunch+Bullet Punch (I assume you're staying in on the second turn, which is why I included Bullet Punch in the calculation). Without a Chople Berry, you have no chance. However, given Dynamicpunch's 50% confusion rate and the 6.25% each turn for Machamp to crit you, you have a less than 50% chance of getting SR+(move of your choice) off. I would recommend against using Tyranitar if you want to have a favorable lead matchup against Machamp! :justin2:
