Pokemon White Cheats

There's a similar information I posted for Pokemon Sapphire but this time, I'm posting this for Pokemon Black & White. With extra information about new Pokeballs introduced in later Generations. (This does not include Heart-Gold & Soul-Silver Pokeballs because they're exclusive to those games.) And in Generation V, they introduced Critical Capture which acts like landing Critical Hits. (Explained later...)

Catch rate -... 

If you are playing Pokemon White, you will capture Zekrom, the Black Yang Pokemon. And vise versa; in Pokemon Black, you will capture Reshiram, the White Ying Pokemon. Either one, depending on the version you play, can be found at N's Castle when confronting him.

"Make me your ally and we will fight together!"

In this case, you will have a easy chance to capture it. All you need to do is use Hypnosis or Sleep Powder and throw a Dusk Ball at it. Congratulations. You caught it in only two turns. Keep in mind that making Pokemon sleep (asides Rest) makes it very effective to capture.

Try going on GTS (Global Trade Station). You can search a Pokemon what you want and trade one of your Pokemon in your boxes.

Just beware: Most people on GTS are not being very honest, mostly because U.S.A. hacking their Pokemon, making and unfair or impossible deal. Most of us are very tired of seeing kids hacking their game, so look for a Pokemon you seek and check if it's a fair deal to you.

You may also offer your Pokemon and tell people what you want. After that, you got to wait. Patience.

Beware: If you haven't checked GTS for a long time, you may or may not get your Pokemon for your offer. And do not make ridiculous deals otherwise you will NOT get you want. As well for other low-life offerers.

And just a quick note, you have to make your deal in time before someone makes the deal first and it will be too late make a deal now.

In order to obtain the Adamant Orb, Lustrous Orb and Griseous Orb you will need to defeated the Elite Four for the first time. After you have completed the game you will now go to Wonder Bridge. Keep going until the Dark Trinity appears.

One of each will give you all three of those items. This way, you can boost the power for Dialga, Palkia and Giratina once you have done transferring them to Generation V.

Alder - Unova's Champion and the strongest trainer. He will become available for battle after you beat the game for the first time. Without N and Team Plasma interfering, now this is your chance to face him. But beware, the Elite Four has also gotten much stronger and they added 2 more Pokemon in their party

Cynthia - Yes, you can face Cynthia, Sinnoh's Champion. What's she doing here? Investigating. She will become available for battle after you beat the game for the first time. She will be at the house at Undella Town. Remember: she still has her all-mighty Garchomp. You can face her anytime once per day at Spring and Summer only. Sometimes, two of the Elite Four, Shuntal and Caitlin will come to the house where Cynthia is at in Summer.

Game Freak Morimoto - He is the designer of the game and he is a real person who made this game (both Black & White). You will take a notice that his sprite is actually a Veteran Trainer. Be prepared: because you are about to face him with a very high leveled Pokemon. He isn't too hard but he can be tricky with his party. He will become available after you beat the game for the first time. He can be found at Castelia City on 22nd floor. You can face him anytime once per day everyday.

Note: The name "Alder" is only part of the name of the user here, Aldermar. Ironic isn't it?

In the Abyssal Ruins, which can be located at the eastern side of Undella Town (where you can battle Cynthia during Spring-time). Now, in order to go there, you are being required to have the following:

• Surf
• Dive
• Strength
• Flash

Next you may have to follow the guide here. Credits goes to Marriland for the useful map.

Now, in Abyssal Ruins, as you first entered it (recommended to start at the lower-left end as you dive), you will notice a faint sound. But you do have a step limit though. The more you traverse long enough, you will be sent back to the surface where you last dived from. What you will find in the Abyssal Ruins are Relic treasures and Arceus' Elemental Plates. Maybe some other items as well.

On 1F, you have to go through the path correctly (as shown on the map) or else you will not able to unlock the first block. You can, however, go pick up some loot for your own satisfaction. On 2F, you are being required to use Flash on any of the two blocks (as shown on the map). If you don't have a Pokemon that knows Flash, then collect the loot as you wish. Now, on 3F, at the last block, you are required to use Strength. Again, if you don't have a Pokemon that knows Strength, just collect the loot. And finally, in the center of 4F, you will find a RELIC CROWN! It can be sold for an extremely high price.

If you have collected so much Relic items, they are to be sold at the villa in Undella Town to the Black Belt. He will give you a heck lot of cash for them. Unfortunately, there's only one Relic Crown.

Enjoy your search in Abyssal Ruins.

Edit: Because that the link to the map I was talking about is not there when it was first submitted, please stop being so dramatic and shut up for a moment. The link to the map is here. If it still does not show up, then you will need to go to Marriland's Site for the map.

Mono-Type Pokemon are Pokemon that has a single Type. For example: Typhlosion is a Mono-Type Pokemon. It's base type is, Fire. So it gives a better boost to Fire-Based moves. Its STAB boost is greater than Dual-Type Pokemon because Mono-Type Pokemon are naturally powerful that way.

Now, a Dual-Type Pokemon, such as Infernape, is Fire/Fighting. It boosts Fire and Fighting moves but a weaker STAB boost than Mono-Type Pokemon. However, they can still deal inflict greater damage if used right.

Now let's move on to why Mono-Type Pokemon are better than Dual-Type Pokemon. You see, certain Pokemon, like Swampert, has only one weakness and that's Grass. But, Pokemon like Scyther has way too many weaknesses. Mono-Type Pokemon usually have 1 or 3 weaknesses and they usually have a better advantage than Dual-Type Pokemon.

So, if I were using Typhlosion now, its Eruption (if it has full HP) deals tremendous damage to my opponent. Escavalier would fall in defeat rather easily due to Typhlosion's Type Advantage and better STAB boost. And... Haxorus, is a wonderful Mono-Type Pokemon to have: it will boost Dragon Moves much better than Dragonite. However, they're both pretty powerful so... Anyways, you can use both Mono-Type and Dual-Type Pokemon to your advantage. It's a necessary thing to do, only if you play your part right.

By the way, STAB stands for "Same Type Attack Bonus." Mono-Type Pokemon gets *2.0 STAB Boost and Dual-Type gets *1.5 STAB Boost.

Remember that now.

A lot people acquire Pokemon with Dream World abilities. But their Natures and Characteristics are not what the people wanted, and so people breed them with a Ditto and discovered after hatching 20 eggs or more, the offspring did not get a Dream World ability. Something is wrong here. According to Serebii and Bulbapedia, you need to do something here:

• The Female Pokemon must be the one with the Dream World ability
• The Pokemon's Egg group must be compatible with the Female
• Leaving them in the Daycare

After you've done that, wait for a while and get the eggs from the daycare man. After hatching a couple of the eggs, you will notice that the offspring will have the inherited Dream World ability from the mother. This method is the only way to acquire an offspring with a Dream World ability. So yes, you cannot leave the Female with the Dream World ability with a Ditto, nor can breed a Male with the Dream World ability with the compatible Female. And finally, there is 60% that the offspring WILL have a Dream World ability inherited.

I hope this helped for those who are in need of offspring with Dream World abilities.

Ok so, you want lots of stuff but haven't got the money for it? Well heres a way to get shops down to half price.

First of all, You must have a Friend with another DS and a Pokèmon Black or White Game Card (Or a spare DS and Pokèmon Black or White) Start up both games. Then on the Game that isn't yours, go you the Entralink. Then go onto one of the bridges and wait until both DSs have connected. Then on the Game that isn't yours enter your world. when you enter go to your games Tree (Doesn't exactly look like one but theres a man standing beside the "Tree"). Then press "A" at the tree if your lucky enough there might be a mission that allows you to half the price of shops. Then accept that mission then go to wherever your own game's trainer is. Talk to yourself then Dadadaaaa! Now all Pokèmarts sell everything at half price for 30 minutes.

Special Notes: This Does not work EVERYDAY it only works some days. Some other days have different missions.

Also before doing this I highly recommend battling trainers (Maybe the Pokèmon League but bring your strongest Pokèmon when doing that so its quick!) with the Amulet Coin. When I did this I bought:

99 Ultra Balls

99 revives

All Three TMs in Icicle City [Possible Spelling Fail] (Thunder, Fire Blast and Blizzard)

Pokémon League digging you in? Having a hard time?

Well, there are a few options you can do to get a TON of levels up…

1. Rare Candies (well, duh)

2. Face one of the Pokémon League challenges. There's a chance the trainer you're trying to beat is weak to one of your Pokémon.

3. Try against the Dark-type leader. He... or she... is the easiest of them all, since its Pokémon really aren't that tough.

4. Give a Pokémon a Lucky Egg. And maybe another Pokémon the Exp. Share for extra experience. Trust me, the Lucky Egg can get you up to around almost 2500 EXP each.

5. Or you could train in Victory Road.

Hope I helped.

Note: These will only work with an action replay

Effect is the name of the code.

Enjoy!

If you think your game is glitched by having two of your Pokemon KO'd at the same turn and you can't switch any of your Pokemon in battle, you need to switch your active Pokemon with the Fainted Pokemon. After you have placed the two active Pokemon in the first two slots, the battle goes on. And I repeat this is NOT a glitch.

I hope this helps you if you're having issues with Double or Triple Battles.

I have just found this interesting information on Bulbapedia (credits goes to them) and it has something to do with the move Sky Drop.

Alright, so if your Pokemon knows the move Sky Drop (which are most likely Flying Pokemon, like Braviary for example) and used it, it will swipe the Pokemon away into the air. Now, if your Pokemon (or the opponent) uses the move Gravity, the Pokemon that used Sky Drop cannot finish the move and what's more, the Pokemon that was taken into the air by Sky Drop cannot take action at all.

This can only take place in Double or Triple Battles and therefore, Sky Drop is banned for the Random Wi-fi Match. For more details, please have a look at this video here.

This information also works for Pokemon Black.

Are you tired of seeing the Green background while looking at your Battle Recorder? I have a solution for that and you will love to know about it! If you're interested, READ ON!

Alright, after you tap the screen on your Battle Recorder, you will now see 4 options, right? Alright, on the very edge of your touch screen (or the 4 corners), tap them and the background color will change! There are Green, Pink, Gray, Yellow, Red, Brown, and Orange. The only time you have a Blue background is when you go to the Wi-Fi Battle Videos.

There are 3 different types of Pokemon in battles. Sweepers, Walls, and Tactical.

Sweeper - There are two kinds of sweepers, Physical and Special. A sweeper focuses on KO'ing the foe's Pokemon in one or two hits. So, if I were using a Physical Sweeper, I would only use Physical-based moves to deal some damage. Swords Dance greatly boosts Attack stat, which can be handy to have around. Then again there are others like, Dragon Dance, that boosts Speed and Attack at the same time. Useful if you want a fast Physical Sweeping Dragon-Type Pokemon. A Special Sweeper is the opposite of the Physical Sweeper as it uses Special-based moves. Nasty Plot greatly boosts Sp.Atk, so if I were using an Infernape and Nasty Plot, its Flamethrower will deal more damage than usual.

Wall - Again, there are two types, Physical and Special. A Physical Wall takes abuse from Physical-based moves from the opponent. Let's say I have a Probopass with excellent Defense. But wait! It also has excellent Sp.Def as well! Probopass can take as much abuse from either attacks, which also includes its weakness. This is only when Probopass uses Iron Defense to maximum its Defense stat. When it is maxed, Probopass will receive only 3% of damage from the opponent. Now, the only thing that a Wall can counterattack is priority moves such as Toxic, Thunder Wave or Will-O-Wisp. So, if I were still using Probopass, I would like to set up Stealth Rock while I have the chance. Stealth Rock takes out HP depending on the Pokemon's type. So if my opponent sends out Volcarona, its HP will drop to half while Stealth Rock is in play. Rock is supper effective against Bug and Fire. Common knowledge. There is also an HP Wall. An HP Wall is a Pokemon with incredibly high HP, such as Blissey. It cannot handle Physical Abuse as it will faint within seconds. It can take abuse from Special-based damage.

Tactical - A Tactical Pokemon are often fast with priority moves, such as Confuse Ray, Stealth Rock, Hypnosis, Roar, and so forth. Tactical Pokemon are Pokemon that can find its way to take out Walls easier. So, in order to take out a Wall, one must either put it to sleep, use either Nasty Plot and strike at full power. This is what people would do with Porygon-Z or Thundurus. Also, a Pokemon with Prankster ability can cut ahead of the opponent and use Taunt to prevent the opponent from using priority moves such as Swords Dance, Iron Defense, Stealth Rock... pretty much all Status-based moves. Tactical... 

Yes they do. They greatly effect several things such as evolution, appearances, breeding their own kind as so forth. Many people lack of importance of gender because it truly doesn't matter in game. That's not true, a lot of people are like that, but I can prove how they are wrong... in several different answers.

-----

Evolution

The only way to get Gallade is to have a Male Kirlia and use a Dawn Stone on it. The only way to get a Froslass is to get a Female Snorunt and use a Dawn Stone on it. Only Female Combee evolves into Vespiquen. Only Male Burmy evolves into Mothim and the Females evolve into Wormadam. There are 5 different Pokemon with specific gender that greatly affects their evolution line.

-----

Breeding an offspring & Inheriting Moves

Only the Female Pokemon makes the offspring and the Father inherit moves to the offspring. Let's say you want an Elekid to use Ice Punch. You will need a Female Electabuzz and a Male Medicham with Ice Punch learned.
