    I tried to go back and the bug catcher there keeps getting a "!" and then telling me how I need to try out cycling road. I wanted a Murkrow D:

    As I understand it, shaking pokeballs mean they are near levelling, but I am not positive.
    You are allowed to go back later...as I had no problem heading in there.

    oh god, I can't go back through eterna forest after getting a bike? Fuck me.

    What the shit? Then when do you use Cut on those bushes in there? And how do you get to the earlier cities to use GTS?

    well, I assume you can still fly back. I planted a ton of berries and slathered a bunch of honey and I wanna go back now though...

    You can get past that guy as soon as you have gone down the cycling road and
    ran into Dawn again

    After that you can go back up the road and then he wont stop you trying to pass him and go to the forest.

    Do we need to be at a certain place in the game in order to get Celebi? Further than opening the basement of the Pokemon Hospital? I'd like to get it, but I haven't played a Pokemon game since Blue and I keep hearing things like "unlocking the national dex" in order to trade stuff.

    In order for me to get Celebi, I need to beat the Elite 4 and see every pokemon in the Sinnoh Dex. This will unlock the Pal Park and the National Dex. I also assume that everyone who wants a Celebi will have to get the National Dex as well because I don't think the Sinnoh Dex has a spot for him. If that's true, then that lowers the stress a bit on my end to finish the game in like 5 days.

    Also, adding the others that signed up.

    Was just going through the old chateau leveling up a gastly, when lo and behold a shiny gastly appears! First shiny I've seen in any of the games, and it has a rash nature. Not bad :).

    Where can I find a Misdreavus. The stuff I've checked says there in the forest with the old chateau, but I haven't seen one in an hour. I'm using pearl.

    Man, I feel like I'm going so slow compared to everyone else...just got the Bicycle, and my guys are around the 19-23 range. The whole "gear-shifting" is an interesting touch, definitely beats out switching bikes.

    Also just got a brand new level 20 Cranidos. Pretty cool that you can get fossil Pokemon this early thanks to the Underground.

    I found one in the lost tower, pretty common there (also playing pearl)

    Alright I've added you and Campion who PM'd me.

    Just curious, anyone up to making some kind of picture for this? I thought I'd try and make a grand post for when I unlock the Park and can actually do this but my photoshop skills are the lameness.

    No; Abra evolves to Kadabra somewhere in the teens.
    From there on you can trade for a Alakhazam, because he still learns moves, unlike evo's from stones.

    So why do some Pokeballs shake when battling? It's...unsettling.

    When they shake, they are close to leveling up.

    I want a Celebi EVENTUALLY but not too soon. I wanna keep the super special awesome pokes till last.

    I haven't a clue why, but it would just feel wrong to have a Celebi before I have the majority of the more 'normal' pokémon.

    Just caught Dialga. Threw one Pokeball, two Great, and caught it on my first Ultra. It has a Brave nature. Not the best, but I can definately make it work if I ever decide to raise it.

    So... do you not want in on the current list? I'm not sure if I'll do another giveaway because demand may not be high enough and I'm already feeling a bit burnt out on this one and I haven't even started.

    Nah, you got enough to do as it is. If I ever decide I want one and there's nobody give to me one, I'll just... get an Action Replay I guess...

    Staravia - lvl 23
    Alakazam - lvl 20
    Monferno - lvl 18
    Buneary - lvl 18

    Buneary is sorta acting as a HM slave right now, but later i intend to delete those off her to give her some better moves.

    I just got to Hearthome City and tommorrow Ill be heading towards the next city.

    Once I get Fly Ill start the online stuff with you all. I just dont feel like running that far right now.
