There is no effort ribbon in Pokemon White and Black, and you can tell if you're done EV training by talking to a lady in Opelucid City in a house above the Pokemon Center.

Ok, so I have pokemon white version and I wanted to go to the random 3v3 flat battle wifi room. (The one farthest on the left in the pokemon center). So, I go in and it tells me somthing like, "Your pokemon are not valid to get throught, get new pokemon and come back in". I used an action replay to get my EV and IVs up. I wanted to know the exact rules to how to get in; becasue on of my friends used an action replay to catch his pokemon, teach it moves with the move change code, used the nature changing code, and level it up by used X1000 exp; and he was allowed to play in the room. Can someone tell me what are the rules please. Thanks.


PLEASE HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pinch berries? What are those?

@K13 No cheating device discussion allowed. Plus, AR is for lazy people who just can't play the game right.

The pinch berries is a popular name to those berries that activate when you are at a quarter (25%) of your Hp and that increase stats or give special effect, like a salac berry or a custap berry for example

First question, most important for me:
Okay, so I have PKMN Black. Play it on DSi, recently restarted it, other junk. So, uh, there's something different about it from when I first played it. See, before restarting it, that big market thing in Black City was there with an Ace Trainer, Clerk, and some third Trainer. But now it isn't there whenever I go! It's just this big, empty space, and three different trainers (to be more specific: Nursery Aide, Youngster, and one of those Fighter guys)! I do not use cheating devices at all. Is there something wrong with my game now, or something? O__o;; Is this because I recently restarted it? Did I not clock enough time yet...?

Second question:
Big Nuggets (and Nuggets if you don't sell them at the Pokemon Centers): Who do I sell them to for money? "A maniac will buy it for a high price"?

Third question:
Isn't there someway to get a device to read the Pokedex in multiple languages? I know that this excists, I had that before I restarted, and I can't remember who or where you get it from...

Forth question:
Also, that Unity Tower thing AND Liberty Garden... aren't even on the map. I mean, the islands are there, but there isn't a green dot (or grey dot if they haven't been visited) on their locations... And I visited the piers and they just make that typical small talk you're tired of hearing, like, "Isn't it nice how Pokemon and people can live together blahblah"

If anyone can help me with these questions, I'll be sososo grateful!!

No, Black City empties if you leave it for a while. You need to hook up with White and go to their White Forest, talk to the people, and then you should get more people in your Black City.

Second question:
Big Nuggets (and Nuggets if you don't sell them at the Pokemon Centers): Who do I sell them to for money? "A maniac will buy it for a high price"?

Some guy in the Icirrus Pokemon Centre, he'll also buy Nuggets, Star Pieces, Pearls, for double the sell price of any other Pokemon Centre

Forth question:

I think it's because you activate Liberty Garden through event, and Unity Tower through a successful trade on the GTS, so I don't think there will be a grey dot there- they're meant to be kinda mysterious I suppose.

And sorry I didn't know about your third question

i have the event legendary dogs (which activates the zoroark event) on my pokémon white game. would i be able to trade them over the pokémon black and still be able to activate the event or do they have to be done through that special way of transferring pokémon?

As long as they haven't been used to activate the event in another game, you should be able to trade them and use their effects to activate the Zoroark event in a different game.

Should I use Stoutland or a Starter or another pokemon to start my game?

I presume you mean which Pokémon is most viable at the beginning of the game. Obviously, the starters are suited for it, as they're designed to help you succeed in the game. You could really just use any Pokémon, if you wanted to. It's not as if you'll fail if you don't use a certain Pokémon.

I can't seem to encounter Thundurus, I go to the stormy area and use a Super Repel, run around in the grass, but I don't encounter him. How can I encounter him?
