Thread: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)

I've noticed that when my Swoobat faints after having used Future Sight (but before the actual attack hits) that Future Sight doesn't seem to connect to the target Pokémon. Is this normal or a change made in Gen 5? There isn't a message of it specifically failing, just that it isn't mentioned at all during the battle after she faints.

Been wondering about this since last Nov. :/

I'm grinding to get my team to level 50, before changelings the elite four, Does anyone know any good grinding places.

Anywhere between Opelucid and the League itself.

Well, I can't find anything that specifies what happens if the Pokemon faints after using Future Sight. But I once had a Gothitelle use Future Sight, then faint exactly two turns later, and immediately after fainting, Future Sight still hit the other Pokemon. Maybe it won't connect if the Pokemon faints within two turns?

The two Stadiums in Nimbassa City are also useful, although they have a limited number of trainers who can only be defeated once a day. Their Pokémon are in the 60-65 range.

Ive been using the stadiums ( the pokemon are level 40-45 to me I don't think they jump that high until after the 4 are defeated. thanks for the advice I should be abusing the lucky egg more.

I have a few questions about Rumble Blast Legacy Mode.

1. What is it?
2. What does it do?
3. How do you activate it? I tried to at World rank 9 but it didn't work using what I read on Serebii
4. What are it's benefits????

I'd be grateful for any feedback

Next time, try the Simple Questions thread.

I have a japanese Pokemon Pearl version.
It was working fine, but yesterday when I tried to start game, my nds shows Blue screen. It seems like 'The game could not be read...'
I tried to fix it, and finally game starts up, but when I tried to save the game, it just finished within 1 seconds. However, it does not saved. When I save the game twice, the second one saved normally.
I found that when I tried to save 1,3,5,7,....(odd) times after game started, it does not save normally. But 2,4,6,8,...(even) time it saves well.
Is there any problem with my Pearl version?

@hexacore For future questions, try the Simple Questions thread.

Anyway, I have a similar problem with one of my Diamonds. (Yes, I have two. XD) I've been perplexed by it for the last couple of years. I don't know what to tell ya. Sorry.

My Pokemon Black and White has Wifi and can go to GTS/Wi-Fi Club but my Heartgold and Platinum won't... What's going on? I am playing my game on my 3DS.

@Scary Fish Do you happen to have an answer for my question?

Questions like this go in the simple questions thread.

I've had the same problem. It's due to the type of WiFi that the console and games will connect to. Gen V can Di what previous generations cannot.

Sounds to me like your WiFi is a WPA connection. Only B/W can connect to that type. HG/SS and back can only connect to WEP.

1) It's a special play mode in Pokémon Rumble Blast.
2) When activated, all the Pokémon toys in the zones revert to the level you would be able to find them pre-World Rank.
3) According to my knowledge, Serebii's instructions are correct and should work for you. Make sure to continue to hold the L, R, and Left on the Circle Pad while navigating the menu. They need to be held while the game itself is loading.
4) It's main benefit is to breeze through zones in order to gather toys that you can use to trade up for higher evolutions. Other than that, there isn't really too much benefit.
