Perhaps I should've asked if anyone had a list they be willing to share as to how to get the enitre purifier into full tempo?

[If a Pokemon with Lightningrod and a Pokemon using Follow Me are out at the same time, and a Pokemon uses an Electric attack targeted at the Follow Me user's team, Follow Me will still take precedence and absorb the attack.]

In fact, effects that change targets are applied in this order:

-Follow Me.
-Lightninrod.
-Magic Coat.

So, let's say that you have a Pokémon using Thunder Wave against a Magic Coat (+4 priority) faster Pokémon, but then a slower Pokémon uses Follow Me (+3 priority), both being in the opponent's side. As the above explanation shows, Thunder Wave will end affecting the Follow Me user, because it takes priority over Magic Coat's effect.

You can use only Dragon-type Pokémon, as they are super-effective against each other; besides, XD treats in the same way Normal-type Pokémon (i.e. Normal-type Pokémon are super-effective against Normal-type Pokémon). That's if you want full tempo.

For maximum flow, all Pokémon in each chamber must be from different species.

Is there a such thing as a legitimate shiny Jirachi? I know a sprite of it exists, but was Jirachi ever released in such a way that you could get it shiny?

Also, while trying to research this, I came across this trivia on Bulbapedia:

"Jirachi, other than Smeargle and Arceus when not holding the Draco Plate, is the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon legitimately able to know the move Draco Meteor. "

What, really? If this is true, is it a programming error or what? And someone needs to fix that bit about Arceus... (actually, I see what they're saying, though it's phrased awkwardly).

Btw, thank you to RudolphMilotic for answering my Mesprit question pages back. You always have the answers. :p

Draco meteor Jirachi

This Pokémon is also known as the Tanabata Jirachi for 2009. It was available in Japanese McDonald's restaurants, the Nintendo Zone and over Wi-Fi. This Pokémon is also the first one to be distributed via Wi-Fi.

Yes. If it was obtained through the Colosseum bonus disk (or any event in the third generation, I think), it has the normal chances of being shiny. The only Pokémon that cannot legitimately be shiny is Arceus since it's only been released by a Wonder Card.

Thanks guys. The way it was worded made it sound as if it's possible to take Jirachi to the move tutor and learn it. I think someone should clarify that.

Ahh, I thought the same thing as the Wonder Card applied to the Colosseum disc, being that you will always get a WISHMKR Jirachi, meaning that its PID won't be formed using your trainer/secret IDs. It can still be shiny based off of WISHMKR's data, or some other mechanic?

No it's not really confusing. Maybe you should read carefully
Jirachi, other than Smeargle and Arceus when not holding the Draco Plate, is the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon legitimately able to know the move Draco Meteor.
If he was able to learn it via Move Tutor or something, if you scroll up a little, you'd see all the moves he's able to learn via one. That wasn't hard, was it?

Why are you being rude? And why is it so unreasonable to suggest that it COULD be made clearer just by adding something like "Jirachi can learn Draco Meteor through this event" with a link to that page?

I'm not being rude...I'm nowhere near being "rude." I'm just saying it's pretty obvious by what they mean. Also if it wasn't on the Move Tutor list on Jirachi's page it probably cannot legitimately learn that move. Also you can edit the Wiki, maybe you should add that.

Assuming I don't know how to read carefully and saying, "That wasn't so hard, was it?" sounds patronizing, sorry. It wasn't even a case of I couldn't read, it was a case of the statement was vague enough to cause some confusion. It's not like there are never mistakes on wikis (for example, maybe no one edited that in on his move tutor list), so with a statement that says he can know Draco Meteor, without saying how, I was just wondering. You don't have to make me feel dumb for asking a question that really didn't seem to have such an obvious answer. No hard feelings though or anything, I'm sure it wasn't intentional.

How do you "clone" pokemon exactly?
I've heard of people doing it but how?

With AR i assume?

I'm able to clone using My Pokemon Ranch and the Homebrew Channel and Savegame Manager for the Homebrew Channel on the Wii.

Basically I use savegame manager to back up the Ranch Save file and with the pokemon I want to clone on it and then take the pokemon out onto the DS and then use Savegame Manager to restore the save file.

How do you clone via GTS?

[bp=Pokémon_cloning#Generation_IV]Bulbapedia link[/bp]
It requires really good timing. You have to turn off the power before the game sends the data that a Pokémon has been withdrawn from the GTS to the GTS itself.

Does this work well? Is it safe for your Wii?
