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

Just wanted to post this in here, from Mr. Masuda :pimp:

"
"Pocket Monsters Platinum"!
This game have achieved the fastest million copies sold
within opening 3-day in Nintendo DS history in Japan!
I'm truly delighted!
I really would like to appreciate every one of you.
Thank you very very much!
Our gratitude is already concentrated
inside of this "Platinum".

Please do enjoy the game!
See ya!"
Shaymin is the Gratitude Pokemon. Think that's a hint to a Flower Paradise event?
 
I do have it already, but it doesn't matter if I don't have the event activated. Actually, in D/P, I didn't even hack the event; at most, I must have unmarked Shaymin's box in Pokésav; this way, he appeared in Flower Paradise.

Guess I'll have to wait for more AR codes.
Platinum is "hometown" 12. The name in Japanese is the same as the name from the Sheimi event. Everything else for a Platinum Flower Paradise Shaymin from Platinum should be the same as a D/P one, if you wanted to make one.
 
If you're going to hack shaymi though, you might as well just pull up a movie one and hack good ivs onto it. seems like the fastest way to me. O.o
 
Or there's always the possibility that Flower Paradise Sheimi doesn't exist in Platinum, because they completely removed it?

Chou: But you can't make a movie Sheimi with a legitimate PID/IV combo... yet ;)
 
It is in there. Coronis posted a description of it on Serebii.
For the Shaymin event, Marley becomes involved now. When you approach the shiny rock where Oak already is, Marley will catch up with you and comment on how she wishes to say thanks to people who are important to her.

The rest of the event is pretty much the same, except that Marley is finally able to see the Pokemon of gratitude and thanks you for that. I'm not sure if this Shaymin can trigger the Glacidia Flower from Floaroma because I already have mine activated.
It would be pretty silly to go through all this only for there to be no Shaymin at the end.
 
My bad for not checking Serebii, then. But it would be even dumber if they included all of this in the game, and didn't allow us to ever access it, like in D/P.
 
Hopefully that means they will. I guess it's not such a big deal in Japan, but the rest of the world would really love to get that event over WiFi. Synch-able Darkrai would be nice too. The Darkrai event has been tweaked as well.
For the Darkrai event, after you capture/faint Darkrai on New Moon Island, a mysterious voice denoted by ??? will come on to say something about Darkrai having really strong powers, that it will cause nightmares to the people and Pokemon around it even without intention, which is why 'it' has put Darkrai on New Moon Island, where nobody else is in sight. Even if something goes wrong, the Full Moon Island is right next to it. Sounds to me as if it's Arceus speaking. Could this mean Arceus created both Darkrai and Cresselia as well?
 
Lol, I forgot to change Shaymin's nationality >_> But let's see if an US Shaymin nicknamed "シェイミ" and caught in Platinum would transform...


EDIT: Didn't work. Now, let's change its nationality...
 
I officially hate Game Freak now.

Not EVEN this Shaymin managed to transform to Sky Form.

It's a legit Flower Paradise Shaymin from Diamond, ENG language. I changed these pieces of data to Platinum and JPN, using Pokésav, and it didn't work. What's the point of adding the Shaymin event once again if it won't transform to Skymin anyways? Why didn't they put a Celebi instead? :/

Unless they want to make a G/S remake, so I'd understand Celebi's absence. But still, poor Flower Paradise Shaymin...
 
Maybe he's lying.

Or he's playing the original game, so the problem is with the roms.

Or maybe the roms dumped from the leaked Platinum copies (along with the original copies) have some bugs in relation to the new forms, and only the after-13th original games (and roms dumped from them) have these shitty bugs fixed.

Or Serebii is a Porygon and thus, controls the cyberspace.

Or maybe he's just lying.
 
i have the real cartridge now and tested Sky Shaymin on wifi and union room and it reverts back to land form :(

i also tested in the local wireless and it works fine there when battling D/P in both english and Japanese and it does not revert back to land form

im really also hoping its a glitch and it will be fixed when they have the Rotoms key event.
 
Mario-- pretty sure nationality has nothing to do with it. I SR'd my movie shaymin on the american game, and it transforms/activates flower just fine. Personally, I kind of like that movie shaymin works while glitch-min does not. >>
 
Not sure if anyone takled about it but....

Killer_Flygon(Me on Serebii) said:
Another question I like to ask is if you delete all off of Rotom's moves except the special move, would it replace said move for another upon form change, or would it add it into it's empty movelist like a normal level-up move, like so.

Here's a rundown...

Say your Regular Rotom has 4 attacks.
Ominous Wind, Substitute, Charge, and Discharge.

Now, you go to the room to change it's Form. You click the Lawnmower, and when it changes, it offers you the ability to learn Leaf Storm (in the same way a level up move does- "Rotom want's to learn Leaf Storm. However, Rotom already knows 4 moves. Delete a move for Leaf Storm?").
If you say no, than... That's that. No.
If you were to than change Rotom's form to Heat Rotom, it would than offer to learn Overheat. Again, if you declined, when you changed its form again, it would try to learn that form's special move.

Now, let's say you have a Frost Rotom with Blizzard, Discharge, and Ominous Wind. If you change it's form to Spin Rotom, than, Blizzard will automatically replace itself with Air Slash. You now have a Spin Rotom with Air Slash, Discharge, and Ominous Wind.
Make sense so far?

Now than, say you have a Wash Rotom with Discharge, Ominous Wind, Substitute, and Hydro Pump.
If you revert Wash Rotom back to it's original form, it will have Discharge, Ominous Wind, Substitute, and a blank space. The special move is removed and Rotom gains nothing in return. It's left with an empty slot. However, say you had a Heat Rotom with just Overheat. If you put it back to normal, Rotom would have no moves! That wouldn't work. So in that case, it automatically learns Thundershock, one of Rotom's level 1 moves.



And that's Rotom. Any questions?

Maybe change the PID?

2185121551 - Is what I got when I loaded the Movie Shaymin into pokesav. (The legit one that allowed me to change into Skymin)
 
I just thought of something. How would multiplayer contests handle new forms? Looks-wise, I'm wondering about all of them, but what about Rotom moves-wise? Wondering both Plat vs Plat as well as Plat vs DP.
