It uses the Language, not regions.. So If you've got a French Pokémon, and English Pokémon that would work.

Japanese Pokémon are easier to spot. Since Pikachu is spelt the same way everywhere but Japan.

Dang, then I think I have a English one as it was from Ontario, not I just have to figure out which it is out of three I traded yesterday.

Though what if it is a french one but they put an english nickname, does that count? Or how can I tell, cause I also got an Eevee with the name Eevee, but the owner's name is MAXIMO? (I deposited a Riolu and they found it) Is there a way to track the owner's origin?

If the Pokemon is nicknamed it still counts as foreign, although you wont be able to tell where it came from.

^ Actually, IIRC, it will give a Pokédex description in its original language so it is possible to tell, assuming you have not had the same Pokémon from each supported language before.

The PokeDex only shows alternate languages for some Pokemon, not all. Like Magikarp.

It'll be distributed from the time the store opens, to the time it closes on those dates.

The wireless distributor should be on all day.

There is away to tell if it came from the same Language game or not.

Traded Pokémon from different Langauge games get a larger EXP Boost over Traded same Language games.

Same langauge Pokémon get 1.5x EXP compared to your own. Other Languages get 1.7x EXP compared to your own.

The Best way is to battle with two Traded Pokémon. You get a Pokémon that you know is it's OT game Language. Just compare the experience they earn. Of course, you can't use Lv100 Pokémon.

I've been wondering about this for a while, whether you'll have to bring your own DS, or if they have a DS there that you attach it to.

I'm kind of glad that they're finally having gamestop pokemon events again. There doesnt seem to be any toys r us' around here, so I cant get any event pokemons from there =x

Attaching a DS? DS events are wirelessly distributed, there is no need for cables.

Yeah you need your own DS, otherwise you wouldn't be able to get the Wonder Card.

Thanks I appreciate that.

 

[Falco Master]

You wouldn't be able to get the event cards by mixing records with someone that had it would you?

 

[Tiomasta]

Nope. You can only get wonder cards the normal way.
Beside the Japanese Secret Key, of course.

Hey, anyone wanna help me figure out how to get a Togekiss without breaking my back over it or hacking? ;468;

Good news: I hatched the Togepi egg that Cynthia gives you Now I have a pathetic lv. 25 Togekiss that knows Metronome as its only potentially damage-dealing move Is the Move Relearner the only way to teach it Air Slash, Aura Sphere and ExtremeSpeed at this point?

The move relearner is the only way to teach it those moves, at any point.

I know this is a pretty stupid question but, how do I know when to evolve a feebas, I heard you just need to have max beauty and level up, but when I tried it, feebas didn't evolve. People have been telling me to level up feebas to level 20, is that how it works? And what berries are recommended for giving feebas max beauty?

 

[Electric]

In order to transfer Pokemon from Leafgreen to Platinum, do you have to get the Ruby and Sapphire into the machine on One Island?

 

[jolteonjak]

No. Because you do the transfer via Pal Park.

My question: How do I set up Mystery Gift on Japanese Diamond please? I want another Mew.

Well I used a berry called Micle Berry, but I don't know where the hell I got it, I just know it's rare. Or the more common berry would be Pamtre berry. I think they do have to be at least level 20 all mine were. Just save it before you feed it the poffins or even before you make them.
