Pokemon Diamond~
*points to icon*
My friend code for Pokemon. Add me? :D And because "Lucathia" wouldn't fit for a name (BOO!) I went with a mangled version of it when I started the game. ^^;
I finally have my wi-fi set up!! I immediately went to the trade center in Jubilife and started trading. XD;; Managed to get myself a Chimchar and a Turtwig from trading. Now I'm looking for some Pearl-only pokemon. Glameow and a whole bunch of others, since I don't have any.
Next on my list of to-do is to learn how to breed pokemon! I don't quite get how it works yet. ^^;
Chatot's move Chatter makes it so that you can record your voice as Chatot's sound when it comes out to battle, when it faints, etc. I recorded "Hello" to test it out and laughed sooo much when Chatot fainted and a "Hello" came out. XD; I tried recording "mada mada dane" but it was too long to fit.
I just got my fifth badge. Still a long way to go~

Good luck with the Breeding! Just wondering, what is it that you don't quite get? Maybe I can help! =3

I have a wireless router + cable, so I was able to set up my DS to work with it. You don't have Wi-Fi? D:
Uh, I haven't left any pokemon at the daycare yet. Do I...just leave two pokemon of the opposite gender and then go walk around a lot? Are all pokemon capable of breeding? I've heard that Ditto can breed with anything.... ^^;
no subject
Yeah, I don't have Wi-Fi. No hotspots in my country XD;
Yep, two pokemon of the opposite gender. The egg will be the type of Pokemon the mother is. Oh, but you have to leave compatible Pokemon. Like. Uhh...Say, Piplup with Buizel or some other Water type. Basically, they have to be of the same Egg Group. This'll help you find compatible Pokemon to breed:

Ditto can breed with anything. But Legendaries (Except Manaphy) can't breed. Ditto's good for when you want a one-shot Pokemon like Piplup or something, but the one you ended up with is Male.
There should be a Poketch function thingy that lets you check to see if your Pokemon have laid an egg. Then you just go collect it from the daycare.
no subject
Aww. Hm, it's true that with the trading thing, I've only seen people from the US and from Japan mostly.
Ehehe, I put two Cranidos in the daycare to try it out. I'm quite happy that I even have a female Cranidos. I have a four eggs now. Need to walk around a lot for them to hatch. XD;; No idea what I'm going to do with so many Cranidos, but at least they seem easy to trade off.
Hm okay. So as long as the pokemon are of compatible type, they don't have to be the same species? That'll make things easier. (and that's an awesome site!)
Oo darn. Dittos sound useful. I want one. But I can't get one until after National Dex, and even then, they're rare, aren't they?
The poketech breeding checker thing is quite useful. :D
no subject
Cranidos are cute! Both of mine were male. (One's evolved into a Rampardos though.)
Well, I'm not entirely sure where to get Ditto in Diamond XD; But I'm sure you can find one on Wi-fi! As for me, I'm going to transfer my Ditto from FireRed once I get to use Pal Park.
no subject
Haha, I've been digging away at the underground for the past few days and I've gotten 6 Cranidos from that. Only one of them was female. X3; So hard to get a female Cranidos! I almost thought that all of them were male, or that the museum guy only gave out male ones. I haven't gotten any other fossils except the skull one. ):
Huh, if I breed my Prinlup, do I get a Prinlup out of that, or a Piplup? Or is it unbreedable? D:
no subject
You can only get Skull fossils in Diamond. To get Shieldon, you need to trade with someone who has Pearl =D
You get Piplup. The eggs always hatch into the 'youngest' form of whatever Pokemon's bred. So you get a Budew if you breed Roserade or Mime Jr if you breed Mr Mime.
no subject
Hee, I've already traded one of my Cranidos for a Shieldon. I thought there were other fossils other than those two though?
Ah okay. Good to know. X3; I'm going to go breed some Piplup next then. Good thing mine is female since I don't have any Ditto. XD;
no subject
Oh, and about that Roserade and Mr Mime examples I gave earlier. Apparently, there are some...requirements?
http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/breed.shtml
...but most Pre-Evos are available in the wild anyway~
no subject
Huh, so those ones require special things but Prinlup doesn't, I hope? ^^; Pokemon games have gotten quite complicated. XD;;

Glad you found the site helpful =D

My Prinplup gave one egg. I haven't had time to walk it yet. I was going to leave my Prinplup in the day care longer, but she's right before the level where she'd learn another move. Pokemon don't learn moves in the day care, right? =/
*reads up on natures*
Oh boy, I should've tried to breed for beneficial natured pokemon. And good egg moves too.

I visit your journal from time to time, and I just had to say something when you made this post. I don't know anyone who plays pokemon (other than me sadly), and the new Diamond and Pearl versions don't seem as fun without others.
I have Pokemon Pearl, but I haven't gotten that far yet (still trying to get Cherubi from the sweet honey trees, after you slather honey on a tree you have to wait 12 hours for a pokemon, any longer and you'll have to start over again >_<). After I get some pokemon from the sweet honey trees, I'm moving at full speed towards next gym.
Pokemon breeding isn't difficult. As long as they're in the same egg group, they should be able to produce an egg, even if they don't like each other. XD However if the day care man says that they'd rather play with other pokemon rather than each other, it's probably a no-go. The baby will be the same species as the mother and it might takes some techniques from the father, which is why breeding is handy. Oh yeah, and there's an application that shows you if there's an egg. When it happens you see an egg between your pokemon on the bottom screen. ^^
If you don't mind me asking, how do you set up wi-fi? I've never thought about setting it up, but it sounds fun.
no subject
I was able to breed some Cranidos and also a Piplup (not together of course XD; ) yesterday, so I think I've gotten the hang of breeding, though I didn't pay too much attention to what techniques the male had.
Wi-fi is great. I've been able to get some Pearl-exclusive pokemon that way and the other two starter pokemon. X3; Do you have a wireless router? If your router has a WEP key, pick the Wi-Fi setting option on the title screen (it's the third option) and type in the WEP key there. After you do that, you should be able to do Wi-Fi. There's the World Trade Center in Jubilife and also trading/battling with friends you've registered in Pal Pad.
Diamond and Pearl are indeed much more fun when you have other people playing it with you. :)
no subject
Breeding is great because sometimes the baby can learn moves that it would never learn by leveling up. Some breeders make the most out of TM moves that way. I don't do much breeding because I'm always running off to places. I like exploring you see. ^_^;
I don't have a wireless router, but I did see something in the video game store for the NDS that connects wi-fi. I think I'll buy that the next time I go. Maybe we could add each other when I get it done?
no subject
Ah, no wonder the Turtwig I received knew cut. Must've come from the daddy. XD;; I really want a Ditto. Would make breeding a lot easier.
Hm, I do think I've seen something like that too. I hope it works for you. :) It'll be great fun to be able to trade or battle with you. :)
