Several things which I constantly get PMs about:

1) The two 'new' natures which were noted from Japanese sites before the games' release - as far as I can see, neither of these natures exist, and I can't find any current Japanese sites that document them either. So most likely it was a rumour (or prank) posted by the Japanese websites during the pre-release time.

2) In the Pokemon Mansion, two maids block the left and right exits of the building, and there have been heavy speculations on where they lead to. Recently, one of the Japanese sites posted up a short video on a hacked game which had the maids removed, but those 'exits' aren't actually accessible even without someone blocking them. So the conclusion is they are only for decorative purposes.

3) There are have speculations on how Arseus's unknown variant was unlocked. Well, I've tried making it hold various either items, and none seem to trigger that form. I tried using moves that tamper with its ability (e.g. Skill Swap, Digestive Juice) during battles, and apparently, none of these moves can affect Arseus.

4) Feebas are caught in Tengan Mountain, in the mist-filled lake, and just like in RSE, there are only selected fishing spots in that lake where Feebas are found. I don't know the exact number of fishing spots though. Some say it's 6 like before, and some say there's only 1, since that lake isn't really that big.

5) By now you should have known that there are a total of 5 side characters who would pair up with you in specific locations along the game, during which even wild pokemons you encounter will be in double battles. Many wonder where they've gone since you don't seem to see them again. It turns out that in the Battle Tower, when you pick the double battle option, these 5 characters will be waiting to pair up with you in the Battle Salon, just like the Battle Tower in Emerald. The only difference is these people have actual backsprites now, so you won't have that weird front sprite VS front sprite battle screens.

6) Explanation on some of the unobtainable key items:

a) Red Chain - this is the item Team Galaxy created from the Legendary trio by chaining up their jewels. It lifts the seal on Dialga/Palkia on Tengan Mountain, and thus allows the boss of Team Galaxy to awaken those creatures. It is an in-game item alright, just not accessible to the player, like the Red and Blue Orbs in Emerald.

b) Volcanic Rock - when you do the Hard Mountain quest, the red haired girl Bagu snatches this item from the Hard Mountain, believing that by obtaining such a rare item in such a perilous area, she has proven herself to be strongest trainer in the world. Unfortunately, this act awakens Hiidoran. Again, another in-game item that the player isn't supposed to get.

c) Treasure Sack - this is actually an automatic function when you go underground. Guess this item was initially planned to hold the treasures, but Gamefreak changed their plans and simply made it an automatic option in the underground world.

d) Contest Pass - for some reason you don't need the Contest Pass to attend the super contests (actually, I don't think you need this either in Emerald), so this is likely another redundant key item.

e) Sticker Sack - actually a duplicate of the Sticker Box, possibly another redundant item.

f) Boat Ticket - this is probably the only inexplicatble item since it is described to be a ticket for S.S. Anne. Not sure on this one since S.S. Anne has not been referenced at all in D/P as far as I can recall.

Not directly related to D/P but to Ranger instead. All the special missions (Deoxys, Celebi, Mew, Manaphy) are naturally accessible in the English version, and Manaphy's official English name is Manaphy, while the D/P region Shinou's official English name is Sinnoh.

Ok, big apologies everyone. Seems like the only naturally accessible special missions are Deoxys, Celebi and Mew afterall, but not the Manaphy one.

I discovered that the save file I tested with last night (I converted one directly from the Japanese save file) was actually modified to contain the Manaphy mission, and thus when the Ranger Net was activated, it showed up.

I tested today again by converting a non-modified Japanese save file, and the Manaphy mission failed to show up. I'm not sure if there are further ingame criteria to unlock it, but I'll let you know when I find it.

At the meantime, sincere apologies to everyone who've had their hopes high by my post last night.

Haven't had much D/P discoveries for a while, but since I've gotten myself the official National Dex book today, there are few interesting stuff I'd like to share with you (and corrections, some major ones, to what we've discovered before):

1) Tangela & Tropius: If you remember, these were like the final pokemons whose locations we 'discovered' in D/P. Actually, we did not discover them, but rather found their locations on a Japanese site. Unfortunately, this bit of info is mistaken afterall, and according to the official Dex book, these two are the only species apart from the starters and legendaries that are NOT found in Sinnoh. So, Pal Park is the only way to get them.

2) Shadow Tag of Wobbuffet/Wynaut: In the 3rd generation, if you have two of these facing each other, neither of you will be able to switch pokemons, and you can only wear their attacks out until the struggles set in. In D/P, switching is possible if two pokemons with Shadow Tag are up against each other.

3) Bad Luck: Ok, this is heavily mistaken. I misinterpreted the Japanese term 'kyou' as bad while it should have been strong. So, in other words, this ability should have been named Strong Luck, and as the name implies, those who have this ability (Murkrow, Absol, Donkarasu) should have increased chances of PERFORMING a critical hit rather than receiving one.

4) Spirit Cloth: Once thought to be a one-off item to evolve Dusclops in the tall grass of Route 229, you can get unlimited Spirt Cloths afterall, but you'll have to capture Giratina first. Every time you visit the Return Cave after Giratina is defeated/captured, there will be an item waiting there. You must know by now that the Return Cave is like a maze, and if you manage to reach Giratina's room within 3 doors, the item will be the Spirit Cloth. Between 4 to 15 doors, you get the Precious Bone, 16 or more, just the Star Dust.

5) The Tower Tycoon Kurotsugu, is actually your rival's father. And that red haired 'girl' Baku involved in the Hard Mountain/Heatran quest, is actually a boy, according to the official art.

6) Download: How this ability works is, if your opponent's defense > sp. defense, your sp. attack increases. If your opponent's sp. defense > defense, your attack raises.

7) Slow Start: This ability of Regigias halves its attack and speed for 5 turns.

8) Technician: Only attacks below the base power of 60 will get a 1.5 boost.

9) Dry Skin: Apart from the weather effects, pokemons with this ability also heals when hit by water attack, and receives more damage from fire attacks.

10) Flower Gift: Both attack and sp.attack are boosted to 1.5 during the sunny day turns.

11) Psychic Dream: Allows you to see the strongest attack of your opponent only, if more than 1 attack has the same strongest base power, the move you see will be random.

12) Nature Power: It generates different attacks now. Grass - Seed Bomb; Sand - Earthquake; Cave - Rock Slide; Swamp - Mud Bomb; Water - Hydro Pump; Snow - Blizzard; Ice - Ice Beam; Indoors - Tri Attack.

13) Treasure: You don't have to use up all your other attacks really, just use all the attacks at least once, then Treasure is already usable.

14) Mighty Guard: Apologies, wrong info collected from Japanese sites again. It should be named Crescent Dance, and when used, this exclusive move of Crecelia makes itself faint, but heals all PP, HP and status conditions of the next pokemon sent out.

15) There are 4 fishing points for Feebas in D/P in that misty-filled lake on Tengan Mountain. Unfortunately, it changes every day.

16) Hurl: The book listed some examples of items being hurled and the added effects apart from the damage. King's Rock - flinches foe; Light Ball - paralyzes foe; Poison Orb - poisons foe; Flame Orb - burns foe; White Herb - resets stats; Berries - individual berry effects.


That's about it for now. I'll post again when I find something interesting.

I have received PMs for clarifications on certain things, so I'll just post this here for everyone to read:

1) Feint and anticipate: the listing on the site's attackdex are indeed mistakenly swapped. For feint, it works by attacking before protect or detect can set in, but it fails if the foe isn't using protect or detect. For anticipate, it uses the attack the foe is about to use with heightened power. It fails when the foe isn't using an offensive move, or when the foe actually uses an attack that guarantees to hit first.

2) Other attacks:
- Feather rest: recovers half of maximum HP, loses the flying type attributes during the recovery turn (i.e. not only losing immunity to ground types, but also type advantages)
- Metal burst: deals 1.5 of last attack's damage back to foe, regardless of special or physical nature
- Imitate: mimics the attack which has just been used in the battle field, whether it's the foe's, partner's or one self's
- Tail wind: raises self and partner's speed for 3 turns, even with switching
- Gravity: For 5 turns, disables all levitate and flying type attributes, and disables moves like fly, splash, bounce and electrolevitate
- Electrolevitate: makes user immune to ground attacks for 5 turns
- Beak peck: attacks and uses the effects of foe's held berry
- Squash, Squeeze: higher the foe's HP, greater the power, maximum power = 120
- Gyroball: higher power if USER is slower, maximum power = 150

3) Safari Zone (The Great Swamp):
There are a total of 6 areas in the Great Swamp, and each area will randomly generate a rare pokemon each day. This rare list is different before and after you obtain the national dex.

(the * ones means they are already naturally found, so it's hard to tell whether it is the rare pokemon of that area of the day of just a normal inhabitant. Thankfully it's just a problem before you get the national dex)

Before: Gureggru, Scorpi, Muskippa, Golduck, Roselia, Mukubird, Marill*, Azurill*, Wooper*, Quagsire*, Bippa*, Beadull*
After: Gureggru, Scorpi, Muskippa, Golduck, Roselia, Mukubird, Dokurog, Dorapion, Exeggcute, Yanma, Shroomish, Paras, Kangaskhan, Gulpin
