im really curious about what happens if i try to trade pearl/dimond pokemon to pokemon firered\leafgreen?
The fire,leaf doesent hape those pokemon in them. ;D
erm, what?
I think he is talking about them pocketmonsters..
Quick answer, it wont do it !
If you find it does then you will corupt your game pak
No I don't agree at all. It'll add the pokemon with its attributes to your inventory, and you can play with it. People have these, and the only way to get certain pokemons is to get someone with the other game and a cable, but basically you'll just get a new one that doesn't exist in the world until then.

Pearl and Diamond are only on DS, right? And DS can't connect with a GBA (or DS's that are using GBA game paks for that matter), so even if it did work, it would be physically impossible to connect. It would probably work to connect FireRed/LeafGreen to Ruby and Emerald (or whatever the other GBA ones were called). This would only work, however, if you were using a GBA to connect both games.
Poke-what now? I haven't played (or had an interest in, for that matter) Pokemon since Yellow. That's from way back when, for you young 'uns.
It was rudmentary then, and just as rudementary now, I would expect.
probably i can connect DS to GBA SP.
DS (i think it has) a built in whireles adapter and so does the SP (seperated that is)
No, they can't be connected.
Are we really talking about Pokemon?
The forums really have hit a new low.
Can anyone tell me whether I should get the Barbie doll or the Ken doll?
The ken doll comes with a removable tool in his underpants, but the Barbie comes with a free vibrator. Your choice.
actually neither has nipples, and the Ken my sister had, had integrated panties. Then the next one had no genitals, but a really bad tumour there. However, the way barbies are nowadays (smaller boobs/hips) I'd recommend a Ken one :)
Action Man used to come with big plastic blue Y-fonts. And real hair.
On his head, not his scrotum.

Action man has nipples.
I wonder why action man would have them, and Ken wouldn't?

Manly.
Action Man, the greatest hero of the mall!
I'd get a (http://yg.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/tmnt.jpg) though, if I didn't already have them all ;)
Aww, I only have Raphael! :'(
Oh my god! Blue cups are getting commercial:

STOP USING AGS!!!
Means:
POkemon is a great game concept and a good game. Only because it got famous around preteens it's not a bad game. Try it before you blame it!
I think most people that criticise the game have played it. I personally think it's better than the average console RPG for a few reasons, but unfortunately each version is pretty near identical to the last. The formula needs a massive overhaul.

But the millions of preteens who buy each new game don't seem to notice that. :)
If you've played one game, you've played 'em all.

I played it, disliked it severely and have since retried playing newer versions to see if it had improved at all. The low semi-rpg quality it had at the start (b&w gameboy version) was retained up until the latest GBA version I tried. I have no faith in any other adaptions, because they're just the same game with updated graphics + pokemon.
Repetition is bad if the original product wasn't that good to begin with.
ooh, lucky i read the actual posts.
After just glancing at the topic title i thought you had some weird sex-fetishes of pokemon or something ;D
Yay another thread re-inforcing the kindergarten aspects of this community
Yeah, it's good to be less serious every now and then ;)
About seven years ago, I used to work in a toy shop that specialized in imported goods from Japan, though could only really push little more than a metric assload of pokemon cards. I found myself needing to memorize pokemon and what they do in order to pitch the cards to the (rare to begin with) customers that would come into the store, as the few collectors that came into the shop for the interesting merchandise were few and far between.
While doing this research, I always found pokemon to be an interesting concept insofar as it essentially glorifies slavery and gladiatorial combat, doesn't it? It's like cockfights for children. I mean, think about it - there are legions of children and 'teams' who go out into the wilderness, beat the living hell out of and subsequentially trap and enslave once-wild animals in order to send them into combat against other peoples/teams' creatures in battles for fun and profit.
If a fighter has a ringer of their own, they trade their weaker gladiators to other people in order to profit them a little better. In all of this, the creatures are generally resigned to their fate, and unable to do much of anything aside from wait in their 3x3x3 inch plastic ball until summoned forth to fight - or die while doing enough damage to soften up an enemy before the better fighters finish it off.
When you think of the Pokemon movie, it even makes it a little scarier to think about, as the entire plot revolves around a creature that was bred to be a great fighter, but doesn't want to live only to kill its bretheren for the entertainment of humans. So this revolutionary (Mew 2) revolts and tries to fight against the pocket monsters' tormentors for their freedom. Of course, in the story this character is shown as the bad guy.
Telling this to my students the other day, I was told "You have no dreams, do you?".
Cute little scamps.

I may be mistaken, but isn't arthur.com like...twelve years old?
You're scaring me, Caine.
I can't hear you Ray.
Vive la Revolution
I choose PikaLenin!
I agree with Caine, but have to criticise one aspect of what he says....
You went to see the Pokemon movie.? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I rest my case.
Dude, I've seen it ten times on telly already.
Didn't actually see the movie, but I had enough kids come into the store, and also read enough of the cards that I got the idea. I'd be interested in seeing it now, actually, if only to get a feel for how they actually play up the 'revolution against humanity' aspect. I did most of my research through google so far, though.
What? You didn't see the pokemon movie? :o
My grandparents gave me the Pokemon movie on VHS for christmas a couple of years ago.
I'm 22.
And I don't own a VCR.
Been there, seen it, got the promo card for booking a seat. Blissful days they were.
My first encounter with Pokemon was some stamps on the Gameboy Camera. I'm pretty sure that was at least a year before they started appearing as games and trading cards; I didn't know what they were anyway. I don't understand why people buy into these franchises when they seem to essentially be the same game, though I'd be quite happy to make millions from one idea then repeat it every year or so...
