Official Help/Small Questions Thread for Pokémon HG/SS

In order to keep clutter down in this forum, this thread can be used to ask for help (or ask small questions) if you are having trouble with HeartGold or SoulSilver. And those who can understand Japanese, those who remember the plot line of GSC well enough, or those who have already made good progress in the game can help you out.

(Yay, first...)

OK, so I've battled Claire and received the gym badge from the Dragon's Den (which is the requirement for the next item), and now I have to battle the Kimono Girls in Ecruteak City before I can get to Ho-Oh. But they're not in the theatre or in the Tin Tower ... or in the Burned Tower.


Help?

Help?

Did you try talking to Elm first? He gives you the Master Ball and mentions that the Kimono Girls are looking for you (In their theater? Not looking hard are they? =P).

[Toffeuy]

Apart from Dialga, Palkia and Giratina being able to learn new moves... which other pokemon get to learn new moves they previously couldn't in the other games? Can you list them (If there's a lot, sorry because it'll be a pain in the neck)

[DanteKoriyu]

Next to none get new anything via level up: Cyndaquil, Quilava, Typhlosion, Hippopotas, Hippowdon, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina.

Thanks; I had to talk to Elm first.

Dratini picks up Extreme Speed as one of the many gift-type of Pokemon you get in the game.

Where do you get a firestone and is there gonna be a pokesav for HGSS?

Where do you get a firestone and is there gonna be a pokesav for HGSS?

Nobody here produces Pokesav. That's like asking Nintendo when a new Xbox system is going to come out.

You can most likely purchase a Fire Stone from the Goldenrod Dept. Store.

COM, the creator of Pokesav, has been missing for some time now and has failed to update Pokesav Platinum. As such, there is no reason to believe that a version of Pokesav for HeartGold and SoulSilver will be created. However, Jiggy-Ninja and the developers of the Project Pokemon Save Editor (PPSE) are working hard on getting a HGSS version out.

Anyone know where to get Surf?
And Illithian, COM Has released v0.01 of Pokesav HG/SS

[Mewtwo Ex]

I have been thinking...

The Arceus event that triggered the Platinum library creation story was supposed to be activated with only the movie one. I proved that wrong...

My question is: Can the Arceus in HG/SS be other than the movie like in the Platinum?

[PokeDaemon]

Anyone know where to get Surf?

You still get it from the old man in the Theater in Ecruteak City, but instead of battling all of the Kimono Girls, you just battle one Rocket Grunt with a level 12 Koffing.

Does the Extremespeed Dratini have a different location met from ordinary Dragon's Den Dratini?
Like... if you caught one there, would it have the same location met as an Extremespeed one?

I've been wondering this for a while.

[DarkZBoy]

Does anyone know where the part is for the Power Plant? I know in the old games it was in the water, but the gym has changed.


Here are the things I did, People are saying its a glitch or something:

- went to the power plant after visiting running man in Lavender town, Phone call happens telling me to goto the Gym.
- I confronted the rocket, chased him to the bridge, and beat him
- Went to the Cape and found misty
- beat Misty, still don't have a part
- Went BACK To lavender town, man is still running, then went back to the power plant, and nothing.
