What pokemon are able to use the thunderstone in soul silver? I gave someone my pokegear number after a battle on route 38, and later, they gave me a thunderstone. They said that it could make certain types of pokemon evolve. Which ones?

I remember a long time ago, the "Snakeyes Gaming Corp" board wordfiltered "Pokemon" into "Crapflap". So there were tons of people begging for a "Crapflap gold" translation. Man, I'm old.

Sorry this isn't even close to a forum where that info would be available. XD


(And since it's in the development forum, I was disappointed that someone else wasn't thinking about making a pokemon like game :cry: )

Did it come with a CD?

Thunderstone is most commonly assorted with that overgrown yellow hamster with a lightning bolt shoved up its rear end commonly known as Pikachu.

Moved to General Stuff.

Why would a bot author bother making bots that do nothing but post a message? If it is a real person though, one wonders how on earth they found this website while searching for information on modern pokemon games.

Perhaps to build up the account's reputation. Some boards require at least one on-topic yet link-free post before the user can start posting links.

Chinese pirates usually do, but that doesn't mean they are any good. They usually play like crap, and have broken logic/physics/graphics/sound.

True, they probably didn't spend any/much time on the polishing of it :/.I was thinking of if it was on the NES how it could like trade pokemon and stuff, that'd be fun to do! Be able to switch characters between carts and such....That sounds like a god idea for a homebrew ;) -writes down and puts into a file- XD

yeah a monster trading home brew could be fun, and it would be interesting to see what might be come up with to go about the actual transfer process.

You'd be surprised at how close the Game Boy Game Link protocol is to the NES controller protocol, but unfortunately, the NES can act only as a master, not as a slave. So they're working on RS232 with timed code instead.

I knew it was good practice to reuse code, but this is pretty wild. :P
