Global-Trance Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 how do you do it? you just bring your DS in and they give it to you? First you must have the "MYSTERY GIFT" option at the main menu screen after the title. Select that, pick Receive Gift, then pick Via Wireless, and just download it! Once it's in your file, all you have to do is first HAVE ONE OPEN SPACE IN YOUR PARTY then go to a blue PokeMart building and near the counter is a delivery man who will give you your gift... in this case, Deoxys! If you are not satisfied with the stats / nature of Deoxys, you can always turn it off without saving, reloading the file, and get it again from the delivery man to check on the different stats. The stats are generated right when you get Deoxys, so technically you could do this over and over and legitimately get a shiny Deoxys.

Actually, I've heard reports that the Manaphy, Darkrai and Deoxys distributed via Mystery Gift can never be shiny for some reason. People on Smogon were claiming it to be true, and you can't get much more reliable, so I tend to not doubt them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I think I will try this with the Shaymin that I will be obtaining on July 19th. Yes... All the pieces are falling into place.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 That Black Sludge still floating around? Also, I beat Palmer at level 21 in Battle Tower. It took forever to get the right team to do it (considering I'm using my UU/BL pokes, and not the usual "omg, time to blast shit into atoms!" teams that people are using to get to, like, 914 wins), so this was a rather happy achievement. The 100 BP I got at the end of it was nice bonus as well. (That would be 100 total, not 100 for winning that battle, of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never mentioned it again or offered up a time, so I was beginning to wonder if you hadn't already acquired one. I have your code entered and all, just tell me when to be online. I figure, you asked for it, you ought to be the one to make an effort. I'm just being nice Especially since I might not get another one for a long time, but what the hey. GJ on the battle tower win, btw. Once I get a new file going in Pearl or Diamond or something, I'll have to start hammering that place myself.

Brushfire Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Due to the spectacular +9 Hours GMT, I need to IM'd if you want anything I have for trade. I would have held the Sludge until you called d00d. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aninymouse Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Damned is a busy dude, you see. I am too. I sympathize. I'm gonna go get another Deoxys or two at gamestop on Sunday, yay! Hooray for me! ...am I the only one who secretly hates Deoxys for having such rediculous stats? It's almost like GameFreak wasn't even being serious.

Overflow Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I caught a Pinser with Mold Breaker. What's so great about it? The game sure made a big deal out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 Mold Breaker allows moves that would be blocked by Abilities to work. Things like Clear Body, which stop Intimate, Scary Face and the like, now work. http://www.smogon.com/dp/abilities/mold_breaker Are you sure it's shiny? The male and female sprites are oppositely colored, so make sure. http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/450.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aninymouse Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I saw a shiny Cascoon in Eterna forest last week, but I got a critical hit on it... I was very pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aninymouse Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Over time, I've acquired a few shinies. I was pissed at losing Cascoon, but honestly I've been lucky enough already. I have all these, and none of them are hacked or from huge PokeRadar chains: Pearl - Geodude (nicknamed him "gonads" in Japanese) Sapphire - Meditite Sapphire - Azumarill Sapphire - Linoone Emerald - Magnemite Diamond - Gallade Sapphire - Metagross Diamond - Floatzel I saw Cascoon on Pearl. I have 3 hacked shinies from GTS, too: Lv.100 Roserade, Lv.35 Deoxys and a Lv.40 Latios. I think I'm setting pretty good. Strangely enough, I've never seen a shiny on my Leaf Green.

Overflow Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I've only seen maybe, 2 shinys, including this one I caught. Here's a question (Not my question, mind you. someone who won't leave me alone about it.) Do you think it's 'creepy' for a full-grown man to play pokemon?

jayc4life Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 My only shiny is a friggin GOLBAT. Same here. Coincidence? However, in Crystal, I had a shiny Wooper, and my friend has a shiny Charizard in Pearl. EDIT: Overflow, my brother's turning 28 in 3 months time, he's obsessed with the animes and everything. If you only have the games, he's making you look normal -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aninymouse Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I've only seen maybe, 2 shinys, including this one I caught.Here's a question (Not my question, mind you. someone who won't leave me alone about it.) Do you think it's 'creepy' for a full-grown man to play pokemon? I'm almost 23. "No" seems like a good answer, but then how can I be objective about it? Then again, it is a game, after all. Maybe it's not "mainstream cool" like Rock Band or Wii casual game #53, but Pokemon's been around a hell of a lot longer. I'm still trying to decide if stealth rock was a really bad idea or not on the part of the overall game design. I mean, on one hand it helps to keep Gyarados and Salamence from being too powerful, and nothing can escape it's damage, unlike all other type of spikes... but the way it cripples otherwise awesome pokemon like Charizard, Yanmega and Moltres is pretty crazy. I think that if one move can cripple so many pokemon indiscriminately, it shouldn't have been made, or at least made so WIDESPREAD. I mean, everything and its mother learns stealth rock. I mean, think about this: a TON of the best pokemon in the whole game have a double weakness: Weavile Garchomp Dragonite Swampert Tyranitar Forretress Scizor Heatran Heracross Breloom Celebi Gliscor Gyarados Salamence Magnezone ...and yet, in the current metagame, Yanmega is the only double rock weakness among the top 75% of Pokemon. I think that when all those other Pokemon that are perfectly capable of destroying teams can get away with being one-shotted by a moderately weak attack of a certain element, the same should be able to hold true for those weak to rock. But it is not so. All it takes is one move in a battle of, say, 60 or 40 moves or so, and suddenly a large group of pokemon aren't able to work anymore. If that pokemon that set up stealth rock spent its turn using, say, stone edge instead, they could still one-hit KO those pokemon, just like even weak thunderbolts will topple even the bulkiest of Gyarados. Sure, there's the chance that a pokemon like Lucario might come out and take almost no damage, but the same can be said about the REST of the pokemon world as well.

If age determined what games you were supposed to play, then... well, that's just silly. What games would people in their 40s be regulated to playing? The Sims? By the way, I turned 30 in late April, so don't feel bad, all you youngins with your "I'm 23" and all that. Try going to a Toys R Us event and not get any looks from parents...
