Mooching Info From Importers

[Æsahættr]

This goes out to anyone who imported d/p or (shame on you) play the ROM's. THere's some information I need regarding my d/p team and whatnot. First off, how early in the game do you reach a) The power plant and b) Iron island? Second, How far do you need to progress in the game to start using GTS? and Third, What are the requirements for the national dex? Info wouyld be much appreciated, thanx people.

You will encounter the power plant as a matter of requirement as you get through the game. Steel island is accessible by ship from Mio City. GTS is available after obtaining one gym badge. National dex requires seeing all 150 Shin'ō Dex Pokémon. (Ah, idea for experiment: what if the 150 you see includes Manaphy but lacks, say, Milotic?)

Thanks for that Zhen I'll keep that in mind. (omg I HAVE to have Fuwaraido)

I also used Fuwaraido, Rentora, Neorantu, and Dotaitos to beat the game, very good team.

Thanks, I figured that I can give them movesets to have an advantage over all types.

More specifically, you can get to Steel Island (and by extension, land a Riolu) right before you get your 6th gym badge. I'm not sure if you need to get to a certain point in the game before Fuwante starts showing up eachFriday, but you get to the Power Plant after your first badge but before your second one. I've herd you need two or threebadges before Fuwante will start showing up, but that's not confirmed.

Yeah Rioru and Fuwante were the reasons I wanted to know about the Power Plant and Steel Island. *points to siggy and runs off to find beads* "yay!"

I found Fuwante at 7:30 P.M on a Thursday before I got my second badge.....
