will it work

[pokebeaner]

let's say i am trading a sceptile from my emerald to my colloseum and i use the sceptile in battle mode and i beat mount.battle with it and i purify every shadow pokemon will ho-oh come out?

Yes, as long as you purified all 48 pokemon first, and have Sceptile 'registered' beforehand - e.g. put sceptile + other 5 pokemon in you party ingame, save, turn off, turn on, go to battle mode and select the option 'register pokemon in party' or something like that. After that, you are free to get that ho-oh. Apparently ho-oh does not appear if you use pokemon obtained outside colo and they are not 'registered'

It must be done using your IN GAME TEAM.

I did this a few eeks ago now I got a Hasty natured Ho Oh with goodish IV's

I've got a question involving this, can you save and turn off or does it have to be a one straight streak

 

[loopy100]

You can save at the the end of every ten battles. I did mine in 7 streaks, 20 to start then lots of tens and then the last 30 battles. REMEMBER when u continue the saved game (IE the how far u have gotten) is deleted, so if u have a power cut u must start again.

Umm... hence why you put sceptile into your ingame party (colo) and then register him with 5 others that are in your party?
BTW, it's very easy, I went with ingame ones in the form of Metagross, Quagsire, skarmory, raikou, houndoom and flygon all at level 50 and ended up with ovber 70 or so continues (lost count), and didn't lose once.

Off-topic: Hey, my ho-oh was also hasty with not-to-bad iv's!
