Try the Pokeshifting Thread. For future reference, this thread is more for general questions such as asking what needs to be done to progress in the story, why X event isn't happening after doing Y, etc.

Okay I have a Pokemon World Tournament Question.
Ive finally found me a Solid team through Testing I'm comfortable with.
Maxed IVs and EVs good Movesets.
Since the Level Cap at the PWT is 50, should I stop Leveling them up at 50 or go all the way to 100 and take it on?

I find it easier to do at level 100

Hey all, I have a shaymin that I caught in pokemon diamond using oaks letter. I brought the shaymin to the lady in lacunosa and she won't give me the flower. What am I missing?

Oak's Letter was never distributed legitimately for Diamond. As such, the game won't recognize your Shaymin as legitimate because it's missing the event flag.

To receive the Gracidea flower the Shaymin must be a "fateful encounter" Pokemon (ie. it cannot have your OT if caught in D/P but can if it was caught in Platinum), so your Shaymin you caught in the Flower Paradise in your Diamond won't let you get the item.

I don't think this will be answered that easily, but...

So I haven't loggen on to my Dream World account in a while. I do remember my username, but the password has been lost. So I go and make a new password to enter my page. And even after inputting the new password, the damned screen says that either my username or password is incorrect (which they are not, I have checked for little mistakes). How can this even happen?

Hello. I have a problem with my games. I can't transfer from my Heart Gold to my White. ;-; I don't know why it doesn't work! I followed all the steps and when I click on my Heart Gold, it says to insert a game. I don't know why it doesn't show. Please don't tell that it's again some region block. I'm just sooo sick of it. My White is in English and my Heart gold in Italian.
Please help. :(

I'm sorry to tell you this, but......PokeTransfer is language-based, since your HG's language is not English, it cannot connect with your English White.

I was afraid that this is the problem. T^T It's not fair since both games are from Europe. I hate it!

I have a question concerning the Sap Sipper ability.

If a Pokemon uses Leech Seed on a Sap Sipper Sawsbuck, will it activate the ability or be ineffective due to Sawsbuck's half-grass typing?

Well hello, i've been away for a verry long time but seeing my all time favourite poke as poke of the week made me want to play some pokemon. I first have to buy a 3DSXL though, my western adult hands cramp up way to much on my current 3DS. But i was wondering. What is a good place to start? I have platinum wich i still have to finish... Also have a Diamond somewhere. It will probably be best to start at Black or White, but do i miss something if went straight to B&W2? The main thing that enjoyed me about this series was making a freaksishly strong team and maxing out stats, breeding for hours to get one with the perfect stats, Breloom, T-tar, Scyther/Scizor, Lucario and Poison types.

I've been looking at the differences between B&W and i think i enjoy the W one better with the nature stuff instead of the science stuff. Although i'm a scientist ^^ Anyways, some pointers would be cool. Thanks in advance.

Ultimately you won't miss anything essential for starting with Black 2 or White 2, though playing through Black or White first will make the experience of the former that much richer for you.

The only reason to put significant time and effort into a Generation IV title at this point would be if you have Pokémon in one that you're still working to train up, or if you intend on capturing and training a critter that can only be found in a Generation IV game. Otherwise, skip right to Generation V at this point.
