Lost in Blue 2
Message Board

what should I do next...? I build the 2nd tree house and a raft on the beach near the 2nd tree house, but when I got out of the sea on that raft...there comes a sad ending... so the raft is not the right way to leave the island...what should I do next??? also, can someone tell me how to make M/L size trap?

--freewing78

You cannot enter the Treehouse until it is completed. Once it is completed, you can enter and live there immediately. Your furniture and all your supplies will be in ANY house you enter. There is no need to perform a 'move' from one place to another.

If you enter alone and go to bed there, your partner and chicken will appear the next morning.

There is only one peculiarity here: if you enter the house initially WITH your partner, he/she will act as though you are outside still and will not perform any tasks or communicate much with you until you awaken at the house the next morning. The chicken usually doesn't lay eggs as much after a move until a day or so has passed.

Swamp question! Anyone figure out how to get that last log down? You know, the one that you can only get to from some fourth mystery entrance to the swamp?

--vness1

If you're referring to the area in the northern part of the swamp, you will need to open one of the secret passages inside the ruins to gain access to this area and push the log down.

There is another passage in the general area where you found the "object". Keep searching in that area of the ruins for another wall bracket to light with your torch. And, by the way, the room that appeared to be "empty" does actually have purple/violet colored stones on the floor and will also suddenly contain another one of those "objects" once you activate the first one you found.

--prima_1

So far I've found four different colors of stones that you can use in making necklaces: dark blue (while diving), light blue (in the gravel at the drinking holes), green (in the swamp kinda near the chives), and yellow (on beach 4 where you build the big raft). Has anyone found other colors? What colors have you found and on what part of the island?

--rainmaker59

Red is from Gorilla. Orange is at the enterance of the highland. Purple is inside the first hidden room in the ruins (which need to be opened by torches).

Pokemon Diamond / Pearl
Message Board

I've just found a place near my school selling Diamond in the UK, imported from America. I know it works on a UK DS as my friend has it, and i've read you can upload from UK GBA Games to DS ones. But what about trading? Can you trade from a US to a UK game?

--m1j1browning

Yes, you can trade between any 4th generation Pokemon games, and it's been confirmed that there are no compatibility issues for Pal Park between US and UK games.

Anyway to tell if it's been hacked or not before I trade? Just got a Mew... and I'm unsure either way. Anyone know how to tell the difference? It's Level 35. The person seemed Legit and ensured me it's not hacked... he even hesitated over the trade so seems real enough. But It says caught in a Masterball (and arrived at Level 3, Hoenn) which makes me question it.

--m1j1browning

Sounds like that's hacked, then. The only legitimate Mews (the ones that were given out at Toys R Us) start at level 10.

How can you name your breeded eggs or rename them? Will it ask you after you have breeded and can you change it at the name rater place? Just wanting to know for trade preferances.

--topbasketballer

You can't rename or trade eggs, as far as I know. You have to wait for them to hatch, at which time you can name them or choose to rename them later.

--Sarpedon

As far as I know you've never been able to rename eggs. But if an egg hatches on your cartridge, then you are the Original Trainer, and you can name the hatched Pokemon whatever you like.

How do I trade with my gba pokemon games like leaf green fire red ruby ect.?

--DoubleFearPanda

You need to get the National Dex. Do it by sighting all 150 Pokemon, beating the Elite 4, and you will get it. Then you can go to Pal Park and transfer them.

Pokemon Leaf Green
Message Board

Ok, i understand that if Entei uses Roar, you won't be able to find it again... but if you found it for the first time, and then you search it with the pokedex, and find it for the second time, and he runs away... will you be able to find it again?

--hyrule_hero1

That's simple. You must find him *once* (which happens randomly!) and then, via pok�dex, you can check his current location. Be aware that such location is always changing, and eventually you'll fight him again, or as many times as it is needed until he is captured or killed.

Most people tend to use a Masterball in that running enemy, but that's really up to you.

--Mykas0

With Entei, it's much like Latios and Latias in Sapphire and Ruby, you can track them down with the Pokedex, but when you get to the location it will change, so instead of hunting it down its best to wait for the random to happen again, and I use mean look or moves that don't allow you to run away!

Super Paper Mario

Did you jump 10 times in front of the red palm tree in the first area? A door appears there.

On chapter 2-3 my game always freezes in the room where you run the hamster wheel for Rubees! WTF!? Anyone else have this glitch? The disc is clean, so is the software eff'd, my hardware, or is it really a glitch?

I went for 400+ rubees in the flea jumping room, got the code for the wheel room, and the Pixl that gets you past the laser walls at the top floor. I wonder if it locks up because of all the rubees I got too early. Is that right? Or should I have the store replace my copy?

--Psychofist

Just go straight to the safe at the end. The code is 41262816.

Flopside 100-trial PIT Help. I just beated the pit and barely survived (and grew at level 29), but a voice in room 100 said that I need to enter the pit again in order to meet the boss there. Is this worth to do?

I need to tell yah that I have a hard time using Bowser(KOing most of the foes with one hit) with Carrie (fast move and midair flamethrower) and Dottie (attack without being noticed by the most annoying foes) almost all the way, only to see the pipe to return to the surface.

--gojira19

I used Mario for almost every floor, and I didn't have any trouble. I brought 6 shroom steaks with me but I think I only used one (you should bring some of these). Just flip to 3-D if you are ever getting hurt, and move to a safer place. And pretty much just use Boomer on everything. For some of the long-range-attacking enemies like Hammer Bros, use Boomer and then throw the bomb with Thoreau. You shouldn't have much trouble if you do this.

--CaptainWicket

Emergency Rations work the same way. In the Pit, they restore 50 HP and are made with a Shroom Shake and a Fire Burst. I don't want to go to the trouble to make 6 Shroom Steaks, and Ultra Shroom Shakes, the main ingredient, are 300 coins a pop! BTW, at Lv29, the Pit should be easy. I beat it at Lv20 with 5 Emergency Rations.

--Axemrangers05

I cant find the pit of 100 trials someone please help me

--Xeanort

Here ya go: Super Paper Mario Guide (Page 6). It details exactly how to open the Pit of 100 Trials, and even gives some tips to boot! Good luck!

--Andre-IGN

Sorry if this is a noob question, but what is the DS for on floor one of flipside?

--winter123

It tells you some recipes and ingredients. You can't connect to your DS.

--rgarber

Piccolo Side Quest! I was wondering how you actually begin this. Because everytime I got to Merlee's House of Charms she asks if I want to purchase a charm and that is it. No mention of her crystal ball. Do I need to by each type of charm?

--DIS_AMERIKA

Talk to her BEHIND the counter.
