Ah ok. I thought they had they special/physical markers on moves for much longer than they did, but I guess not. Thanks!

No, the physical-special split only happened at Gen IV. (I'm glad they did it too :P)

What does that mean?

Whenever a pokemon falls asleep, its sleep counter is set by the move or randomly by the computer -- it's the number of turns until your pokemon wakes up.

When you switch it out, that number goes back to what it was at the maximum.

When a Pokémon falls asleep, the game randomly decides how many turns it will sleep for, and sets this number in stone. So if the game decides it will sleep for three turns, it will without a doubt sleep for three turns and awaken on the fourth. However, if the Pokémon sleeps for two turns, and is then switched out, when it's switched back in again its sleep counter will be set to 3 again, so it must sleep through all three turns in a row without switching out in order to wake up.

No offence, but I like Neo's one better :)

So it will make sleep status longer, shorter, or either way? (Sorry if I misread your example)

It will make it longer.

Thank you very much

Is it possible to find the Leppa Berry in the Dream World? If so, where is it and/or how many points are needed to obtain it?

If I can find a Leppa and a Charti, I'll have all the berries available in the DW. That is, if Leppa is in the DW to begin with, hence my question.

Can someone explain to me how AR markers work on the 3D Pokedex and how you get them.

do cheren and N appear again after the event at N's castle?
also, can you find looker again after arresting all the sages?

No, you will not be able to see N again after the event.. But you can still battle with your two rivals, Cheren and Belle..

You can't find Looker as well, he only appears in events where you found the sages.. I don't see any point meeting him as well.. Lol..

If the Ice Cream table is taken to be true, the Leppa and Charti Berries are in game. I haven't seen them either.

AR Markers are basicly a funky glyph that the camrea see and the software sticks your Pokemon on it.

Here's my question.. Is it possible to obtain DW Sneasel now? Or is it still unavailable?

Nope, sorry.

You're supposed to click on the icon to expand the AR marker on your 3DS's lower screen, then somebody else points their 3DS's camera at it, causing the Pokémon to emerge. Alternatively you can display it on any other screen like a computer screen, a tablet, a phone, etc. or you can print it out or even draw it by hand. As long as the contrast is high enough, it will work.

You get one sticker for making a Pokémon emerge, and another one for taking a photo of it. You can use several AR markers at the same time and get multiple stickers with single photos.
