So the DSi with Black/White will be able to get wi-fi from any kind of router that uses WPA (a Vodafone router for example) ?

Should do :)

But Vodafone isn't on this list: | Nintendo - Customer Service | Wireless Router Information | Wii Support | DS Support

Does that mean that it won't work..?

Nah, mines not on it either and I get superb connection.

For the longest time I've had problems looking for Special-oriented Pokemon from Gen V. Anyone have any suggestions? Can I have some tips on how to train them as well?

When your using a IV calculator like this one:Serebii.net Games - Individual Value Calculator, do you determine your pokemon's IVs from the median bar or something else?

Well, normally, I just use the highest or the lowest (depending on my mood xD), but having a look at the IV calculator myself; I think going by the median would be the best bet.

Best bet as in the most accurate?

Well, I'm not sure about the accuracy. However, as I've found out through raising several Pokémon, if I go by the highest or lowest, as the Pokémon levels up, that range can change dramatically, so the median sounds like a safer bet.

Ok, it won't be accurate, so if you're planning for certain HPtype and can't get the HP Guide, it won't help there. But if you want to know if it's reasonably got good or bad stats this will help. It will tell you if your special attacker's IVs are low or high.

I'd not only take the Median in consideration but also the range too.

The More info you can add the better chance of working out the IVs.

OK, I just got an Egg in a trade. Thing is, it's called "Ei" instead of "Egg". Any threat there?

@Flareth that...sounds like a bad thing to me...(ಠAಠ)

It says that it's "ready to hatch."

......0_0 I think I should release it.

EDIT: Damnit, you can't release eggs.
Wait, I haven't saved ever since I got the egg, have I? Not on my accord. Or does it save after every trade?

It seems like a perfectly normal egg in all way except name.

a quick google search of Ei brought me a post on /vp/ saying that a bad egg could be named Ei, though take that with an ocean of salt :X
hatch/save at your own risk i gather, unless someone else knows better.

OK then, I'm-a have to get rid of it somehow. Question is, HOW?!

trade it back to the original owner? or get someone with an AR to delete it.
