But the people in BC/WF react to you based on what time it is. Some things in the DS games will change if you change the time on your DS - for example, in Platinum, the gym leaders won't battle you for a whole day.

That's what I'm asking about. Will there be any adverse effects?

Mmm. I'd think there'd be safeguards to prevent anything too horrible. The time-based stuff would probably skip 24 hours as one of those safeguards, as said.
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

I guess all that's left to do is to find out. At least I have the guarantee I won't lose them completely. Thanks for the help!

If the time difference is minor, then the NPCs will still be in Black City or White Forest, and the game will treat it as if the clock hadn't been changed at all. This is the case with me, for instance, when I had to adjust the system clock for Daylight Savings (which, incidentally, is this coming Sunday). The NPCs will only really be affected if the time difference is significant, which I believe is 24 hours or more.

A question of my own--actually two, but closely related:
1. Does Disable work if the last move the opponent's Pokémon used was not used against the Pokémon with Disable? For instance, a move knocks out one of my Pokémon. I switch to a Pokémon with Disable. If I used Disable immediately, would it work?
2. If a Pokémon with Disable uses Protect or Detect and blocks an attack with it, can I Disable the blocked attack the following turn?

What if you have the ones from the Netherlands like I do? Will these activate them as they are basically the same event. I have both the Reshiram and Zekrom so will I be able to get both skins XD? Thanks.:)

EDIT: I just checked Pokemon Secure's website and it says that you can tuck these in to the DW and it will activate the event no matter which area's they are from. If they had a farther statement about them then they foreign ones would not work. Looks like the ones from other areas will work XD.:)

EDIT 2: Our events will be downloadable on the 10th so we will be able to use those to get the skins as well but I am going to use my Netherlands events to try and get both of the skins XD.:)

Thanks! The events are coming this Saturday, so I wanted to be sure they'd work if my brother traded my Zekrom!

1) Disable works on a target that has used a move already - but it doesn't matter which of your side uses it. In the scenario you listed, Disable would work, unless your opponent switched right away.
2) If the target of Disable doesn't switch out, then yes.
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

1. If I bred a Ditto with an Male Extremespeed Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite in 5th Generation, will the offspring know ExtremeSpeed?

2. I have a German Snivy (Serpifew), and a Japanese Ditto. Do I need both to trigger the Masuda Method?

3. In Super Pokemon Rumble, can you change the forms of any Toy Pokemon? (Rotom, Deoyxs etc.)
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

You can use the Masuda method with 2 Pokémon of any different language, so you could do both, but an e.glish one would work.

Yes.
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

Those with the Netherlands Reshiram and Zekrom can get the C-Gear Skins if you don't have the English ones as I just used mine to get my Reshiram skin. Tomorrow I will do my Zekrom. Yes any Reshiram or Zekrom event will work XD. I just did it XD.:)

Thanks for confirming! So you got the reshiram skin on Black, right?
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

No I got it on White XD. I have both Netherlands events so I used my Reshiram last night and tonight I plan to use my Zekrom XD.:)

My question was if the Reshiram skin could be used on Black instead of White (and same with Zekrom; What I meant was "Can you use the C-Gear skins on the opposite version then the version you used to download them"? ex: Download Zekrom and Black Version, then trade it to Pokemon White version and get the C - Gear skin)

You can only get the skin of the Dragon appropriate to your colored version (Reshiram for White, Zekrom for Black). Trading to another game will not activate the event. However, having both games linked to one account will allow you to get both skins, since your linked games will share data.

Mmm. What do you mean by sharing data? I thought the site treats the games as separate, but tied to one account, which is why I've had to do each promotion twice. Is there some other integration?

Tied to one account is what I meant. When you unlock a C-Gear skin, you unlock it for your entire account, which both games are connected to. So, you unlock them for both games.

Sorry, should have clarified that :p
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

Hmm this is weird because I have both events on White. When I got my Legend on White in N's Castle I got Zekrom and not Reshiram. Should I have gotten Reshiram when I started White? I tried to but was only allowed to pick Zekrom so this is really weird. I am going to try tonight with the Zekrom and see what happenes XD. I don't see any difference when trading to another version since they have the exact same activation coding XD.:)


EDIT: You guys are so dead wrong. I have BOTH SKINS ON WHITE XD. You just need to take both to the home on ANY VERSION XD. I now have both skins XD.: NO JOKE XD.:)

You get both skins for each game once you unlock them, they aren't exclusive to one version, just the process to get them. And I'll just ignore the "I got Zekrom in White instead of Reshiram" comment because it makes me want to throw my computer at a wall.

He just explained that if both versions were synced to ONE Global Link account, you CAN get both.
You were SUPPOSED to get Zekrom on White. That's why it's on the boxart, menu screen, and all of the advertisements! The event was to get the OPPOSITE dragon from the one in game.
ISB is correct. YOU are wrong.
 
RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread

I just told you guys I have both Skins on my White Version. I am not lying. 2 days ago I took my Netherlands Reshiram to the DW did the event Mini game and got the Reshiram Skin. Last night I did the same with my event Zekrom and did the same. I have BOTH EVENTS ON White and I am telling you right now that I have both Skins on White. Plus when I downloaded my event for the English event I got Reshiram. Believe me or not but I do have both skins on White. I don't even own Black version at all XD.:)
