To expand on PkmnGreen's answer, one layer of Spikes will take away 1/8th of the opponent's total HP when they switch in, two layers will take away 1/6th of their total HP, and 3 layers will take away 1/4 of their total HP. The most damage possible with all kinds of Entry Hazards up is 75% damage, while badly poisoning the opponent.

You use your bike, change gear with the B button and make sure you have momentum. The one you pointed out is in an awkward place, but it's do able :)

It's really annoying to get to coz the fast bike is obv harder to control esp around corners... Took me a good 10mins to get up there, kid you not. -_-

how do i check my pokemon's Beauty Stats???

how do i know it's maxed out

You know how there are two guys who block the way to the resort area if you don't have the National Dex? well i have the national dex, and I can't get there because the two guys are blocking the way. I used a DS AR to get pokemon in the national dex, the rare candies, 900 of every item... Is my game fucked up for life??? If I restart it, will the effects go away? Do I even have to restart it???

You can NOT go there yet. You have to head north and go to the Survival area, then keep going around the entire island and enter the Resort Area from the other side. Is the Battle Area the only part of the island you've been to so far?

I probably should have asked this first, but:
You are talking about Diamon/Pearl/Platinum, right?

My game is platinum. Your sure that I have to go all the way around the island?

You have to go around. I wondered why the guys were blocking that area when I first played Platinum, but I went all the way around Survival area.

How about you finish the Stark Mountain quest and try again from the Battle area? Who knows, maybe you have to do that first.

I tried that... They say that I need more BP... I'm starting to think about restarting my game... Do I have to???

Okay so in pokemon soul silver I'm in the process of trying to find all the gym leaders to get their numbers. I am trying to get lt. Surges at the power plant but I couldn't find him. I went between 9-12 (it was around 10) , pikachu was first in my list and I had already defeated zapdos. He still wasn't there! I am wondering if I was supposed to catch Zapdos or or does he appear at another time? Thanks.

I remember having this same exact problem. If i remember right, you Do need to catch him, and you can't just transfer. Here's a link that might help... Pok

"The eleventh gym leader, Lt. Surge, is missing from the gym most days between 9am and 12pm. He is found outside the Power Plant after you have captured Zapdos. Talk to him and he'll ask to see a Pikachu. Show him the Pikachu and he'll give you his number. Then, on Friday Morning, you can arrange a rematch" - Srebii.net HGSS Gym Leader - Rematch

Thanks for the reply. It does say that he appears "most days" so i am HOPING that it doesn't matter if I didn't catch zapdos (I got frustrated after many attempts so I just let it faint). Worst case scenario I will have one gym leader I can never rematch but o well.

Being HGSS, Zapdos should return if you defeat the Elite Four and Champion again.
