Yo all. Just got the word that Pokemon Diamond has been shipped and to expect it within the next week. So, I've decided to keep an up-to-date log tracking my progress. Look forward to daily updates (Whenever I OFFICIALLY get the game...chit chat 'till then) and feel free to ask questions, since I have a wifi friend ready for my code when I recieve it, so all areas of exploration will be open to me.

I actually have my handy katakana page handy, this guide is actually very easy to understand. This way, I'm also going to give out bits of the story as well....So, it might take me ages to look at one letter then look back, I will have the whole story :P

Also, after I thought about it, I'm curious to see what starter I should choose. Go ahead guys, you pick it. Penguin, Monkey, or the green turtle who's name I can't remember.

I personally don't know which one _I'm_ going to pick. But I do have a tradition of choosing the water starter, so I'd go with penguin I guess.

True, but also remember that it's final evo is water/steel, and fire>steel. :O

The final water stage looks so ugly, yet think, water steel, fire is good against steel but bad against water, it levels out, grass is good against water, but bad against steel, once again it levels out. Steel makes that pokemon have almost no weaknesses, but it still has elec :P which will do four times as much.....

as for me I guess I'd get the grass, it always seemed like in the past people have forgotten the grass pokemon, at least in the Kanto and especially Hoenn regions...

Ah, Ribitta, Steel is not weak to electric.
The Steel/Water is better than Swampert's Ground/Water, at any rate.

Anyway, I've got in touch with my wifi pal who is willing to trad me the other two starters, so now it's just me picking whoever I don't want to get the boosted EXP. gonna have to check who levels up the fastest.

How many elements is pokemon up to, anyway? Last I checked it was 17. Have any more been added since Crystal?

Thanks for the post, RD. :) And no, no new elements have been added since GSC...


AND NOW, THE DELAYED START OF MY EXPEDITION!

That's right, boys and girls, I got ehte game yesterday, but everyone seemed to lose interest...well, no matter, I'll just start off here.

MY POKEMON TEAM:

The three starters (Fully evolver)

Rentorra

And Bippa (HM slave)



I have just defeated a Rogue of Team Galaxy (The new evil organization harassing Diamond and Pearl) because, well...Galaxy SUCKS. The only pokemon they use are common cat pokemon and bugs. :/ An interesting feature which I am using is DOUBLE WILD BATTLES. VERY fun. You start by partnering with a trainer (first one has a Chansey) and you can walk through a designated area. Because of this, I caught a Murkrow. :D Anyway, not much so far, but I'm heading to the fifth gym now. Expect more features tomorrow, since now is when all the BIG STUFF starts to occur.

Teh HM Slave has been officially recognized as a pokemon. I don't even count my slave (one of my Mews) as a pokemon. I have 1 for fighting, one for slaving. In retrospect, Lickitung makes just as good a slave, but it can't fly. And before anyone calls me a sharker, I double-battle glitched them both.

Thanks for the bump. XD

I beat the game ages ago, since no one seemed to care. XD I've gotten numeroud pokemon off the gts, namely all starters except Treecko and Mudkip, as well as some hacked legendaries.

AND YES, Bippa's evolved form learns all HM moves, except for fly. :D

Well, fly works well enough as an attack anyway. I was interested, that's why I bumped, to see if you cared anymore.
w00t go TEEJ!

TEH NEWZORZ-

After fearind deletion of my game, I decided to follow through and try a very VERY dangerous glitch, but with an awesome reward.

The glitch? To obtain Darkrai and Sheimi, two event-only pokemon which normal people can't get without going to a Toys Store to wait in line with yappy brats and sweaty d00ds. This glitch allows you to surf outside of the doors of the Elite 4, and get to each elgendaries respective islands.


Worked without a hitch. Two less lines to wait through when it comes to the US. :D

Is the online mode like a mmorpg or you can only trade and send messages?

Actually, you couldn't perform that glitch whenever it comes to the US, Nintendo is working on removing said glitch from the US versions. Although, I don't understand how the glitch is dangerous, couldn't you just conceivably surf to the islands with little problem?

First off, I meant I wouldn't have to go to the events in the US, I never planned to do the glitch again. >__>

Second off, no, you couldn't just surf, just like you couldn't surf to obtain Mew, Deoxys, Lugia, and Ho-Oh in Firered/leafgreen. The only way to them was the glitch, which if you stepped incorrectly just ONCE, you were more than likely screwed.

Sorry. ^___^

The GTS(Global Trading System) offfers no voice system, and no mmo mode, either. Just trades.

With friend codes is a non-mmo mode, offers trading and battles, and you can speak through the mic.

Having all three starters is always great. =P Though the Fire one is usually my top one, aside from perhaps a second, caught little critter, evolved and trained to the max, like Pidgeot and Butterfree in the first series, or Aggron and Poochyena's fully evolved forms in the third. I think Ampharos was one in the second series, alongside a Dodrio. I look forward to the fourth series, let's see with which party filling ones I'll end up with. :)

1. Okay, my is bad for that.
2. I assumed the glitch was simpler than you were inmplying, I thought you just sort of surfed off the screen and got to said islands. It appears I was misconceiving the glitch, could you PM me information about how to perform it?

Meh, that would be if I wouldn't trade. =P I think I would import at least one or two of the other starters.
