You can trade with Pok?mon Diamond, Pok?mon Pearl, and Pok?mon Platinum right? Also, can you migrate from the GBA games?

Considering that you must trade the shiny Pichu from D/P in order to trigger the notched-ear Pichu event and Arceus for the Dialga/Palkia/Giratina egg, trading with those games is definitely allowed at some point.

It's not known yet whether there is any migration from GBA games in HG/SS.

"... the shiny Pichu..."? Please explain. I must've missed something.

They call it the "Pikachu Colored Pichu," but it's really just a shiny Pichu.

An event (only in Japan so far) gives a shiny Pichu which they call a "Pikachu-colored Pichu" even though its coloration isn't at all the same as Pikachu's. Only this event Pichu, no other shiny Pichus (as they won't have the Classic Ribbon), can trigger an in-game event in HG/SS.

Okay, thanks guys. I just hope I hear about the download. I just missed the Secret Key :(. But there's still hope for other things :).

the Secret Key is available through September 3rd

JrDude · August 12, 2009, 06:05:22 PM

Now that I think about it, I highly doubt migrating will be available in HG/SS, because it's supposed to be for the DSi, and it doesn't help selling DSi's if you need a regular DS/Lite to get full gameplay.

jnfs2014 · August 12, 2009, 06:15:54 PM

Oh well. The gamecard says "DS" and if you want migrating, then they'll have to get it through the DS.

If the game was for the DSi and there was a feature in which you could download items off the browser, would it be unfair? Yes, but you could live without it. And the items would probably be on Wifi anyways.

That's exactly where I lasted checked, but we only looked into one McDonald's and it didn't have the little sign. I didn't bother to go in, seeing as we were just near the drive-thru. I couldn't connect from just outside the place either. The Best Buy I was just at didn't even have one. But thanks for your help :), I'll still be looking for other "Mickey D's" with Wi-Fi.

By the way, does anyone know if any GameStops have Wi-Fi? And on a side note, can you connect to Wi-Fi from a DS Download Station ????? I don't want to have to buy a $25 Wi-Fi adapter for my Wii :|.
