Sorry mate. I'm back in time with a wired router till we get our broadband updated :eek: in the mean time what Pokemon do you want? I'll get everything ready and waiting till we're back on wireless.

Could you do me a favor and send me Turtwig and Chimchar as well? Once I switch our network back to WEP for a bit I'll put up my friend code.

I should be able too, I left Chimchar at Carolines (god, it almost makes them sound real) so I'm not sure when I'll get that one back. The others are totally fine. Would you like them holding Rare Candy or anything like that? :cool:

Just got Pokémon Pearl today.

My friend code is: 2663 8763 8323

Edit: And my name is Kimmy. (I'm a guy in real life, but it's sort of a tradition for me to choose the girl charachter and name her Kimmy. Don't ask why.)

My current lineup:
Budew level 10
Starly level 10
Chinchar level 10
Shinx level 10
and Geodude level 8

Wow! Just caught Dialga with a single Dusk Ball!

Turn 1: I used Close Combat with Infernape, and Dialga's health was on red.
Turn 2: I switched to Gengar.
Turn 3: Used Hypnosis, Dialga is now asleep.
Turn 4: Threw Dusk Ball. Success!

They are very easy to catch! Quick ball did nothing (didn't think so!) just used my super high defence Pokemon to keep it at bay whilst I gave Palkia status's from hell. Ultraball. Bam!

I'm still chuffed that I caught Mewtwo in FireRed using a great ball :D

I've no idea! I just went to that unknown cave place after the Elite 4 (rushing through just to catch him :D ) and there he was. Maybe talk to Professor Oak? Was a while ago now.

My brother just caught Palkia with relative ease too, well 3 ultra balls.
To anyone who is quite far through the game, are the rest of the Diamond & Pearl legendaries as easy to catch?
I'm still chuffed that I caught Mewtwo in FireRed using a great ball :D
It took me 3 ultra balls to catch Mewtwo in Fire Red, which at the time amazed me, as, all together, the legendary birds took about 5 hours and a huge amount of restarts to catch.

I'm definitely having trouble catching the Mirage Pokemon. I got into battle with one of them but the damn thing fled. Restarted and retraced my steps and it switched course! Must be random this time.

I ended up using a master ball on Mesprit, Uxie and Azelf were easy catches with ~3 dusk balls each.

To corner Mesprit, find a patch of grass outside a town. Every time you go in or out of the town it'll move, as soon as it's in your patch of grass, look for it there and try to catch it. If it flees, start again. I got tired of this after a few tries so I threw the master ball at it.

there's a Poketch app that allows you to follow where it is. Get it from the Poketch Headquarters in... Jubilife?

and Mesprit can flee even if its asleep... kinda cheap...

Spent a few hours chasing them. Got all 3 now :D currently using the blond(e?) one as he's a good 10 levels higher than my current roster. Spent way too long levelling up Pokemon I was never going to use later in the game :eek:

My progress is gonna slow down a bit now, i came off my bike this morning and broke my wrist and messed up my favourite watch pretty badly :mad:. So I'll have to play my DS with one hand for about a month and a half. Typing takes a while with only one hand too. :eek:

I finally made it to the Elite Four last night and got creamed by the Solarbeam guy. (third trainer). Anyone have thoughts on how to manage him, I was thinking of surfing his rapidash into oblivion, but am not sure how well that'll play out. :p

My team is Dialga, Infernape, Floatzel, Chatot, Machoke, Staraptor all in the high 40s to mid 50s.

My son caught his Palkia after I helped him through the Galactic boss with a single dusk ball and is now chasing the three mirages....

So where can I import this into the UK?! I've tried ordering of Renchi.com, but it comes up with an error message about addresses every time it takes me to Paypal to pay. :confused:
