Official Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Friend Code List - Page 3

Man, reading this is making me want a Nintendo DS more and more... *sighs* Hopefully I will get myself a DS with a copy of Diamond in early June, if not...well, I'll try and get it as a birthday present for myself

But when I DO get myself a copy, I do have a few strong Pokemon in my Gold and Crystal versions that can be bred to have some pretty strong offspring. Hopefully some people would want a female Cyndaquil some time in the future...

how do you get stuff from the gb/gbc versions into diamond/pearl? i'd really like to know. i mean, even after the national dex...is that possible?

Ra · 04-30-2007, 09:53 PM

I think you need a new trading cable, if we are still using trading cables. Either get a new one compatible to the DS and Game Boy (Color), or you'll have to trade all of your monsters onto a Game Boy Advance file and then trade them onto your DS. I'm not to sure since I havn't actually gotten up close to a DS and checked for the slots, but that was the way things worked with the Game Boy (Color) and Game Boy Advance versions, right? *shrugs*

*Mr. Snackpants* · 04-30-2007, 09:58 PM

Nah, I'm pretty sure it has to be GBA to DS since GB games don't work in the DS...which sucks.

bullet · 04-30-2007, 10:05 PM

i don't even remember if you could trade from r/b/y/g/s/c to the gba versions, lol. but i seem to remember trading in stuff...so if that is possible...i'm guessing you have to use a gba to do it. so you trade from r/b/y/g/s/c into gba versions using two gbas, and then transfer it from the gba game into d/p through ds. confusing isn't it..

*Roseangelo* · 04-30-2007, 10:07 PM

Nah, r/b/y/g/s/c aren't compatible with the GBA games at all.

I've heard rumors that we could see a g/s remake on the DS eventually, like we saw the r/b remakes on GBA. That would be sweet, but it's nothing more than rumor at this point.

bullet · 04-30-2007, 10:14 PM

i remember transferring a team that included a xatu over from silver to sapphire, though. might just be my imagination...or extremely poor memory.

yeah a remake of g/s would be awesome. silver was a lotta fun...it was. wasn't leaf green technically a remake of the green version that only came out in asia?

It was, but the game that was originally released as Green in Japan was released here as Blue. So for us, LeafGreen was a remake of Blue.

bullet · 04-30-2007, 10:19 PM

except without the awesome blastoise on the game cover.

Ra · 04-30-2007, 10:20 PM

Yeah, Leaf Green and Fire Red were both remakes of the original games Green and Red. The creators saw that Red was selling better due to better graphics and decided to stop making Green and start making Blue, which is the exact same game, but only with the Red graphics.

bullet · 04-30-2007, 10:23 PM

i actually owned a copy of the green version, a relative got it for me from japan. at the time i thought it was a joke cuz the cartridge wasn't green like the cover, ya know...like how red was red, blue was blue.

Almost. Red and Green were released with identical graphics. Blue was released a little later with the graphics that we saw in Red/Blue. I think they just thought we'd like Blue better than Green, so they switched that up when releasing them here.

I think she means that on the old Gameboy, the graphics in red were tinted red, while they were tinted blue in Blue, and most people preferred the red tint to the ugly blue. But if not, I don't know.

Anyways, as far as I'm aware, there's no possible way to get G/S Pokemon over to the DS games. Obviously R/B can be obtained through use of the GBA remakes, but G/S is still left out. It is possible to get a bunch of the G/S Pokemon onto the DS via the Gamecube game, though. It's a real mess, honestly.

No, the original Game Boy wasn't capable of color graphics. The original Japanese Red and Green versions had ugly as sin Pokemon sprites, and the 'special release' Blue version replaced them with slightly less ugly sprites, which were the ones that ended up being used in the English Red/Blue versions.

I haven't heard anything of Gold/Silver remakes for DS, and while I'd love those, it seems kind of redundant as you can get all of the 2nd Gen Pokemon in the current games already anyway(If you trade with Colosseum/XD/etc).

bullet · 05-01-2007, 12:40 PM

they brought back the day/night thing, but that phone thing was really cool. i find the new vs. seeker thing very tedius to use and don't use it at all.

Peanut · 05-01-2007, 03:56 PM

The VS Seeker is good because you can fight someone and get a ton of EXP, then just use the Seeker beside them and fight them over and over to farm EXP.

bullet · 05-01-2007, 04:29 PM

isn't there a step count to recharge it?

the old one on the phone i think actually told you where people are when you check on it, and they give a lot more exp over time. so far i haven't see any trainer's pokes levels go up. :/

Peanut · 05-01-2007, 06:27 PM

Yeah, but it's like 75 steps, which is nothing at all. And I'm sure they levels go up after awhile, why would they take something like that out?

Peanut · 05-02-2007, 08:32 PM

Does anyone have any access to WiFi? Cause I could use some help in evolving my Machoke. No one else is up to it, and I really don't trust anyone I meet over GameFAQs not to run off with my Pokemon.

I've also got a bunch of the starters ready in case anyone is ready for one.
