My HeartGold Version Arrived!

やみのディアルガ — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 13:44:43 GMT

Hello everyone...
Today, I-i-i got...Pokemon HeartGold Version!
This is my first real Game Card...after using a flash cart for so long!
The Pokewalker can connect, which could mean it is the real deal. However...is HeartGold sold using a box? If it is, is there a container containing the Game Card with the Ho-Oh artwork on the front, but the background is different from the boxart and the "Online Interactions Not Rated by the ESRB" text is made like this:

Online Interactions
Not Rated by the ESRB

Thanks...and it's time to walk for me!

Weird much? (And a little bit on Project E.T.)

やみのディアルガ — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 03:59:52 GMT

Hello everyone!
Today was a bit weird...that I didn't hear the alarm and woke up at around 8:30am...I was supposed to wake up at 6:10am today!
Someone said that I had turned the alarm off and that it did ring...but I have no recollection of me turning the alarm off. Weird much? Maybe I was sleep-snoozing (trying to get more sleep)...
And something about Project E.T. that has been working in the dark...
Right now, I have 128 Elgyem...Ahhh!!! It's an alien invasion!!! How long is this going to take? I hope I get a Shiny Elgyem egg...or at least get me a shiny when I reach 252 Elgyem...
Thanks for taking your time to read this...

All GEN IV Trades: Cancelled!

やみのディアルガ — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:50:21 GMT

Hello!
I'd like to tell you that ALL of my Gen IV trades are now cancelled.
I'm planning to buy a future main series Pokemon game (Gray, Ruby remakes or Sapphire remakes, maybe?)...and transfer most of my Gen IV Pokemon.
Thanks for looking at this.
PS: Project ground Bot's cancelled.

A Silver-Blue Tyrogue!

やみのディアルガ — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 16:42:53 GMT

Hello!
I have got my hands on...my VERY FIRST RNG abuse Shiny Pokemon!
It is...Tyrogue! Someone wanted this and it totally worked! My first RNG attempt was a Shiny Larvitar with very good IVs, and it failed...even before playing with my SID + ID...
It's unbelievable (a bit)...because I tried something like this...a Shiny Mareep and it failed.
This one...worked? That's unbelievable...I'm speechless.
Thanks!

RNG Is Dropped!

やみのディアルガ — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 16:47:17 GMT

Hello!
I'm going to stop doing RNG abuse, it's hard.
All of my RNG projects have been stopped and deleted as well!
Thanks!

Getting Bored! (Project E.T. Day 9)

やみのディアルガ — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 06:41:20 GMT

Hello!
Well, right now...I guess I will stop playing Pokemon for a while (I can still do some trades, though!)...it's getting boring.
And Project E.T. is already on its 9th day, and nothing's changed...the game's RNG isn't friendly to us shiny lovers (hmm...I've heard of that somewhere in this blog...)
Speaking of the RNG, I tried to do a shiny Mareep and it failed...maybe I miscounted the Happiness Checker Double Taps (that one's hard...the amount is always large...)?
And I'm not doing some requests for Shiny Flawless Pokemon...it's hard!
Verifying my target time and delay is hard (maybe I should try again?)...
And it says that you need a pair of compatible parents with as many of the target IVs as possible...that's hard.
Is there any way of making it easier without bothering about the parent's IVs and the calibration phase?
Thanks!

Nobody in The Shop? (Project E.T. Day 6)

やみのディアルガ — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 12:30:21 GMT

Hello!
This is bad...nobody's posting in my shop.
If this keeps up, it could close!
And today's Project E.T. is not moving at all.
PKMN Count for Project E.T. is 68.
And I'm also planning Project Ground Bot.
So...that's it.
Thanks!

More Masuda Method Projects? (Project E.T. 5th day)

やみのディアルガ — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 13:02:08 GMT

Hello!
So, I just found 2 Japanese Pokemon...so, I'm planning more projects.
They're called Project Green Nuvema and Project Brave Bird.
They are Masuda method projects (this is going to be long, trust me...) for Pokemon Black Version.
And for Project E.T. for Pokemon Black Version...and I already have 2 boxes (60 Pokemon) full of Elgyem, plus 3 more!
None of them are shiny, unfortunately...
So, that's it for today!
Thank you for reading this.

A Project Plan! (Project Loud Rock, 4th Day as well!)

やみのディアルガ — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 09:05:27 GMT

Hello!
Well, I'm planning to do two more projects. It might not work, but it might work...it's for HeartGold.
It's called Project Time Dragon and Project Sea of Time. Try and guess what Pokemon can I get from this project!
For Project Loud Rock...Move Creation is complete! My Loudred evolved to Exploud! (It's called Loud Rock because the Loud is Exploud and Rock is Rhyhorn. I breed them both to get a full egg move Rhyhorn) Now, what's left is... (gulp) ...Shiny Pokemon.
The egg moves are: Crunch and the elemental fangs (Ice Fang, Thunder Fang and Fire Fang).
If I get it right, I'll offer it in my shop, The Super Darkness Trading Shop!

Project Loud Rock and Project E.T. (2nd Day, 3rd Day and 4th Day)

やみのディアルガ — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 13:56:07 GMT

Hello!
So...Project Loud Rock isn't moving a bit for these days...Right now, this is the third day for Project Loud Rock...so, I'm telling you the Pokemon obtained via this Project! It's...Rhyhorn! The fourth day? It's Project E.T. there...and yesterday, not really much has happened. Hatching some eggs, hoping for a shiny...and out comes a seemingly normal Elgyem (it could have good IVs, but I can't check it)...never shiny (yet!).
Guess the game's RNG isn't "friendly" to us shiny Pokemon lovers... Speaking of which, abusing the RNG...I did that to get a Shiny Flawless Pokemon and it failed! The Smogon Calibration Guide was too tough! What did I do wrong anyway? And is there a much more user-friendly guide to calibrating for a Shiny Flawless Pokemon than Smogon's? (Mathematics is so tough!)
And using the Masuda method to get a shiny Pokemon is so boring! Is there any way of making it faster and making it more interesting?
Project Loud Rock and E.T. isn't moving a bit today! So bored with my game...
Thanks for reading this!

Project E.T. (Second Day)

やみのディアルガ — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:17:16 GMT

Hello!
Well, today, Project E.T. moved a little bit.
And today, I'm telling you what Shiny Pokemon I wanted to get...it's Elgyem.
Right now, the Pokemon count of the past Project E.T. and this current one is 48.
From those 48 Elgyem, none of them are shiny.
And I will need some advice on making this project a bit faster and more fun to do.
See, it's really boring if I were to just walk around, waiting to get an egg from the Day-Care Man (It's easier in HG/SS, I think)...so, is there any way of making things a bit more fun while I'm doing this whole project? And is there an easy way of making the eggs hatch, actually?
Thank you!

Project Loud Rock (Start!)

やみのディアルガ — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 09:53:55 GMT

Hello!
Today, I'm starting Project Loud Rock as well.
It's divided into two quarters, which is Move Creation and Shiny Pokemon.
I'm doing Move Creation right now.
I plan to get a Pokemon with 4 egg moves.
After getting it, I'll RNG abuse it in Platinum to get a shiny Pokemon.
I'm also planning 2 other projects.
They are Project Time Drill and Breath Dance. They're RNG projects.

Another Project for Something Else!

やみのディアルガ — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 05:08:54 GMT

Hello.
I'm planning to do some 3 other projects.
Two of these projects are to be done on this Friday, I guess.
These are the projects!

Project Icy Claw
Project Ghost Balloon
Project Loud Rock

See if you can guess what Pokemon I'm going to get!
This project is a RNG abuse project, not the Masuda Method project (one of them is, though!). It's going to be done in my Pokemon Black and Platinum game.
Thank you!

New Projects Coming Soon!

やみのディアルガ — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 14:29:03 GMT

Hello!
I'm planning to do some other Masuda Method projects for Pokemon HeartGold.
A few of these projects have already been done once, but I lost track on how many Pokemon I hatched to get a Shiny Pokemon (I also gave them away. I will do this for Project E.T. as well, when it's finished).
These projects are called:

Project Shabby
Project Head Smash
Project Icy Grounds
Project Fiery Tortoise
Project Meditation
Project Dragonfly
Project Ice Ball
Project Electric

They will start after Project E.T. is completed (one by one, of course).
Thank you!

Project E.T. (Start!)

やみのディアルガ — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 08:18:51 GMT

Hello!
I'm starting Project E.T. for Pokemon Black.
Project E.T. is a project regarding about the Masuda Method (as in, I'm trying to get a shiny Pokemon via the Masuda Method). Guess what shiny Pokemon I will get!
I'll post about the progress of Project E.T. starting from today.
I once tried to do Project E.T. before this but I gave up...
How many Pokemon were hatched from the past Project E.T. = 26 Pokemon
Thank you!
