Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

This is probably a stupid question but well... How it is determined wich box your newly caught pokemon goes? I keep getting new pokemon but they seem to go to my boxes completely at random. And they're defenately not going where I want them to go! It's annoying having to always go to the pc after catching new pokemon to rearrange it.

The pokemon goes to which Box you last viewed when you were looking at the PC. If it is full, it automatically goes to the next numbered box instead. If you have not looked at the Pokemon Boxes at all, it goes to the 1st numerically available box .

Could Hacked pokemon be traded with friends in the wifi club?

They can; although I wouldn't recommend it unless they know the Pokémon is hacked.

C-Gear not functioning properly?

So, I was going on the Dream World today, and I turned on my C-Gear so I can claim my DW Arceus. It said it needed a day for it to recharge. I waited for one and a half days since last time I was at the DW. So, what's the deal? Thanks!

I've been waiting for a heck of a long time, and this post has had 50 views, can someone at least try to help me? Thanks.

Re: C-Gear not functioning properly?

Have you put your game in more than one DS in that time?

No. My Pokemon Black cartridge has only ever been in my DS.

 

[Jo The Marten]

Re: C-Gear not functioning properly?

Okay. Then the only other thing that immediately comes to my mind is if you changed the time on your DS.

I already tried that.

Re: C-Gear not functioning properly?

Alright. I managed to find this on Pokemon.com http://support.pokemon.com/ics/support/KBAnswer.asp?questionID=708 See if that helps? If not, maybe try contacting their tech support.

Edit: wait, are you saying you DID change the time on your DS? That's why it's screwed up. Changing the time causes the dream world energy to drain. Don't fiddle with the time for 24 straight hours and it should be okay.

Not quite. I waited for a straight 24 hours, it wasn't working, so I tried changing the time.

Re: C-Gear not functioning properly?

Thats why it messed up again. If you change the time again, you have to wait 24 more hours. If you want to go on the dream world then, dont mess with the clock.

 

[Jo The Marten]

Re: C-Gear not functioning properly?

Hmm. Yeah, just try to be patient and wait a full day or two. Arceus won't be going anywhere until May. You still have about a month to wait.

Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

I entered the code for Arceus, and it worked fine and all that, but I have yet to claim him from my Home, will he still be there even after the event is over?

 

[Proxima Centauri B]

Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

Yes, as long as you logged in and entered the code, he should still be there until you do.

 

[Shiny Shinx]

Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

Yes, as long as you logged in and entered the code, he should still be there until you do.

Ok, Thank you.

Wait, one more thing, if I get the Event Zekrom/Reshiram, will the Special Home thing still work after they stop distriputing the Pokemon? I know, it's basically the same question.

Re: Simple Questions and Simple Answers

Hey everyone, sorry for such a lame question (and I'm not entirely sure if this goes here) but is there a way to reset the Pokéwalker? My sister (PurplePlum) restarted her HeartGold game and now the Pokéwalker, which was already attached to her previous save file, won't connect to her DS. Anyway to fix it? I've already opened up the back to see if there's a button, but no luck. :/

Re: Simple Questions and Simple Answers

On the system, when you go to the Pokewalker Menu, the only button that should be there, is "Save, Then go on a Stroll," on that screen, press Down + X + L. Try that, see if it works.

I believe the special home is available until May 29th, so you still have a lot of time to pick up the Reshiram/Zekrom C-gear skin.

Did you try this?:

Reset settings
Once a Pokémon is forcefully retrieved from the system, the Pokéwalker which holds the Pokémon's details is unusable. A Pokéwalker's settings must be deleted and reset before making it usable again. The settings on the game can be reset and deleted by pressing and holding Down, X, and L at the Pokéwalker connection screen. This must be done to avoid a cloning glitch. After resetting a Pokéwalker, it may be synced with another game, or a new file.
It should also be noted that when synced with a new game, the Pokéwalker will become the language the game is. For example, if a Pokéwalker that came with a Japanese game is synced with an English game, after syncing, the Pokéwalker would be in English. This proves that very little data is stored on the Pokéwalker itself; most likely only the Pokémon on it and the player's party is stored on it. The latter is for the Trainer House.
