The quilava sprite looks nice the evoluton seqence is the same though :3

On a random note, Im with everyone that says that apricorn balls will turn into normal pokeballs.

Has PokeTerra's evolution video been posted yet?
Quilava's sprite is pretty neat
EDIT: And uh, shows some more of Ecruteak (what the heck is that thing blocking the Burned Tower)

That's an awesome video! Thanks for posting this.
Or thanks for Poketerra for posting it.

Isn't Pokemon Sunday tonight? we'll be getting news from that too right?

Yes, I think they're going to get more in depth about Kanto.
And more information about the Yellow Forest.

quilava's overworld looks cool. i wonder what croconaw and bayleef's look like?

Bayleef will be awesome. I just know.
And yes Quilava's overworld sprite looks insanely supreme.

BLASPHEMY! WHO DIDN'T KNOW WHO IS EUSINE? :O

I don't know who Eusine was until he was introduced in these remakes.
That's because I didn't have Crystal. So don't expect everyone to
know about Eusine. And that is not blasphemy.

Is it possible while linking with HGSS, DPPt's code could get updated to contain the missing balls? Or perhaps it IS there hidden somewhere? Who knows.

I don't think they'll be turned into normal pokeballs.

Hey, with all this scan's fuss I completely forgot about PS. :p
So, are they showing Mewtwo tonight or what? I hope it's good.

They will never upgrade the codes.
How does that happen anyway? And it will never be pokeballs,
it were have to be programmed with DPPT's code, then it should be
Net Balls.

Yep, I'm actually hoping we'll see a bit of Kanto but they'll most likely show the new Safari Zone and/or Bug Catching contest.

DPt's coding has been hacked to pieces at this point.
If there was anything that looked like apricorn balls, we would have known.

And the data can't be "updated" either.

Today's Game Corner appears to be focused upon Mystery Dungeon Adventure Squads. Don't expect much HGSS stuff.

To all of you who think the data cannot be "updated":
Emerald transferred coding over to Ruby and Sapphire to fix the Berry Glitch.

That was a patch to the save, not the coding itself.


Let's just drop this issue, shall we? They didn't use that in D/P when Platinum was about to be released and they won't do any updates now.

You bet they will. Unless you want a shiny invisible Bulbasaur or something of the sort replacing your beloved pokémon.

Ok I look everybody they can treat the new apricorn balls just like new areas.

New area's in platinum (regi's homes for example), when read by platinum read an extra piece of hex. So DP reads one piece of hex and Platinum reads two pieces. The first piece reads as faraway place, that way DP doens't crash and it already has that area programmed. The second piece of text tells platinum that it is in fact Iceburg Ruins(Regice) and for the game to refer to it as Iceburg Ruins instead of Farawayplace.

The same thing can be done in HGSS. DPP read one piece of text when decoding pokeball images, and the one that both HGSS and DPP read is the pokeball image. But HGSS when reading pokeball images has an extra pair of hex, can differentiate pokeballs and apricorn balls.

So capture a hoothoot with a love ball? In DPP it will be a pokeball(or whichever image GF chooses to make it) and in HGSS when looking at its summary you'll see the love ball. STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT!

That was the correction of a minor mathematical variable for purposes of fixing the berry glitch. It was done out of sheer necessity, to correct a minor programming flaw not caught by Nintendo's usually exemplary quality control before the game went gold.

This is not that situation on any level. This is not a glitch; this was not done by accident; this is not a simple mathematical variable.
 
I'm just concerned on if we will get Brains in Johto. Also I can't wait for these games. These first 14 days of senior year are going to make me crazy...

Why should Apricorn Balls turn into Net Ball?

No, since if you deleted your save file, the glitch was still here.

=/

And if you had fixed the game, deleting the save file didn't bring back the glitch.

they can update games because the original japanese diamond&pearl had the infamous 'surfing glitch' due to "bad programming" (being able to use surf in the elite four, being able to walk around the black in Pokecentre top floors, etc) , then nintendo issued a download from DS terminals in tokyo to permanently fix it

not sure how much they can update it, but it goes to show ...

GLITCH is still the key word here. It is not a glitch that D/P/Pt do not contain the Apricorn Balls.
