This helped me.

I hope that's wrong cause I don't plan to send Cubchoo back to Black in the upcoming week or so... for a few days my DS refused to connect to wifi so this time I'll just let it stay there for a while

You go to their dream world home and request to be dream pals. Who you see on the map when you click the dream map button seems to be completely random (other than people who are dream pals) and I have yet to find the people on my pal pad. ._.

A few things -
1. Can I resend the same pokemon back to the dream world? I like my mew being there.
2. You can only wish for one pokemon - the others completely disappear?
3. When I could choose what pokemon I wanted to take back to the entralink - how would it ever be possible to have more than one pokemon in there? Thanks

1) yes, i've sent the same pokemon multiple times into the DW
2) yes they disappear if you wish for one of them to go with you. If you don't wish for any they will still be listed the next day as well.
3) no clue :S

Hey, today when I visited DW I made a couple of visits to the island, and they went fine, but on one visit I got this weird popup every time I clicked on an item sparkle:

The next time I went to the island, everything worked normally and was in English. It was just this one visit, but I can't read Japanese... I think they might have forgotten to translate this text? I can't tell if it's an error or what.

Has anyone else gotten something like this, and does anyone know what it means?

All I can understand from that screen is the Katakana: "Data" and "error". From what I can gather, there was probably an error when the area was loaded, since it appeared every time. I haven't gotten anything like that, though.

I find it hilarious that even though he's obviously exploiting a glitch in the game's programming, he still ends up short of the 30000 mark. Great game, guys.

I know, right? It seems like a complete contradiction - you can't access the Island until you send the Pokémon to the Entralink, so the only way to get a second Pokémon on the board is, well, to get rid of the first one.

What happens when you wish for a Pokémon, then exit the Dream World without waking the Pokémon up, wait a day, and attempt to cross the bridge the next day, with a Pokémon still on the board?

Other than that, the only reason I can think of is that it has to do with promotions -- special promotional Pokémon which you enter a code for would end up on the other empty spaces on the board. Who knows.

So adding that small scoop automatically makes the ice cream stay on or something?

What is the limit for Dream pals?

You mean, in the Entralink, or on your Friend Board?
Coz, for the Entralink, just dont pick up your Pokemon from the previous day, and it will still be there when you add more Pokemon to the Entree Forest.

And for the Friend Board...Well, theres clearly a coloured pin system present...but we probably dont have access to it yet. Like, in the Japanese DW, you can visit someones Island if they appear at the Wishing Tree, but you cant in English yet.

Lol yes. I usually just go as high as I can, just so I don't waste the berry. I hope they add more games soon

Apparently so. It works for me anyway. Though you have to be really quick with it sometimes.

Currently waiting to go on with my black. Still saying my game synch is out of power.

Sorry if this has already been asked/answered, but how exactly do you go about getting female Pokemon from the Dream World? Do you have to score a certain amount of points in the mini-games? If so, what do you have to score? Or does that only matter for getting rare moves?

I'm not sure if I'm just insanely unlucky or just sucking too badly on the mini-games... but I haven't gotten a single female Pokemon yet (aside from female Nidoran, which is obviously always going to be female). I really want a female Exeggcute. :( Thanks in advance for any help.

Unfortunately, you're just unlucky. Genders are assigned randomly after you finish the mini game. The only thing the score determines is what moves it will have. Gender ratio does also play a part, but most DW Pokemon are 50/50.

I don't know if anyone else encountered this, but does the Island of Dreams tend to "die" after a while of playing? I am very finicky when it comes to playing with pokemon, and one day, I was constantly rejecting offers to play because I didn't want the pokemon that was there. After several entrys to the island without befriending any pokemon, I eventually came upon emptiness. There were no sparkles, no rustles from pokemon, or anything. It kind of sucks because I was never able to find the pokemon I wanted, and as much as a reentered the Pleasant Forest was still completely empty.

Fortunately, after 24 hours and logging out of the Dream World I was able to find the encounters again, but is this suppose to happen?
