You also have to grab the Kanto starter from Prof. Oak.

Two questions:
Is it possible to get a Shiny from the PokeWalker?
When you go to Prof. Oak to get your starter, does it show whether a Pokemon is Shiny when you look at it?

1. Yes, but you can't see if it's shiny in the Pokéwalker. You'll have to transfer it to your game.
2. No, this only works with the Johto Starters in HG/SS.

Kanto? You mean Johto, right?
Thanks for clarifying, greatly appreciated.

I would want to do a ”Beatdown” team with a Lucario as my Ace. Do you know any suggestions as with which Pokémon I would team him with?
Also, which movesets, attached items, traits, EVs and natures is recommended for each members of my team? By the way, I want at least one Pokémon which have Surf as a move recommended in a moveset.

Will the IVs and Nature of the Legendary dogs reset if I beat them in the wild?

Well the first thing to do would be to find out what caused that to happen. What was the last thing you did in the game? Did you turn it off while it was saving when you last played it? And did you drop the game/system lately?

OMG!!
That happened to my brother on Emerald. He turned the game off without saving, turned it back on, and his file was back. Try that. If it doesn't work, that really sucks. 
I'm sorry but if it's really gone, the best you can do is start a new game.
P.S. The game was on my shelf for a while, not in a game case. Hopefully that will help.

Hello, I've got a problem with the Unown.
I have managed to catch all 26 of them, solved all puzzles and entered the rooms behind them.
Then I went to the researcher, he sorted them alphabetically and added pages until I got 7.
Shouldn't I be getting 9? Also, when I reenter the Ruins of Alph, and 'talk' at the back, nothing happens. So, how do I get the ? and ! Unown?

Two words: Data protection.
Were you aware that Pokémon games keep a backup save file?
If the saving process is interrupted, it will load the backup save file.
Well, have you drop down to the message rooms? Not just collect the items.
You indeed should be getting 7 btw....the last 2 pages are after the researcher comes into the ruins.
1. I've tried my hand in EV training last night. I EV trained a Crawdaunt to max attack, and its attack was boosted by 16 the next level up. Will it continue to give insane boosts like that, or is it a one-time boost?
2. I was EV training a Bagon last night also. It had a Power Item, plus the virus, so I gained 6 EV's for one Wooper. I had a Feebas with an Exp Share and a Pokerus taking in some EV's too. Does the Feebas get 6, 2, or 1 EV?
3. Also, once a Pokemon maxes out EV's, Power Items don't affect stat gains anymore? I want to know if I could just throw in a Lucky Egg to make 'em reach lvl 50 and still get the stat boosts.
P.S.: If there is actually an EV training help thread, please link it to me so I don't bother you guys anymore.

You usually see the insane boost one time, then it kind of evens out. Expect to see some 5s and a lot of fours, though.
Yes, after you max out EVs, the EV raising items don't have any effect on your guy anymore, so feel free to throw a lucky egg on 'em.
