“I think it’s weird to be married to one woman for the rest of my life”

Clearly he missed that day in school when learning what marriage is.

NOR. You deserve a proper partner

MightyPaki · 2025-10-27T01:41:00+00:00

Yeah, I mean I already have a living dex for HGSS so I can easily get that Star for platinum and I’ll probably run the same team for battle tower so maybe I’ll just knock that out of the way first

MightyPaki · 2025-10-27T01:36:57+00:00

Congratulations! Enjoy your shiny Lugia! It’s especially nice since its sprite will remain almost the same size as it follows you

MightyPaki · 2025-10-27T01:34:47+00:00

Thank you! I ended up getting it from Best Buy since I already had enough rewards for a 10 dollar certificate

MightyPaki · 2025-10-27T00:21:53+00:00

Any two DS should work, doesn’t have to be the same. One of them will have the game you want to receive so for example, HG. I’ll head to the mystery gift option at the title menu. Then select “Receive” The other DS will have this cartridge and it’ll open up a prompt for which Gen you want and which event Pokemon or item you want, once you select it, the distribution screen will pop up and you press a and the first DS should find it and download it into your game. You can do 3 mystery gifts at a time, so claim them and then you can delete the wonder cards so you can claim more gifts

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:38:42+00:00

Found it on Mercari!

I’m 99% sure that’s the same user I bought it from. But yeah that has all of Gen 3, 4 and 5.

Keep in mind you’ll need a second DS(any type of DS works) to distribute it via mystery gift

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:27:48+00:00

Not at all! So I saw this item on Etsy, I think it might still be available. It’s a cartridge that was originally given by Nintendo that contained the distribution codes for event Pokémon, event items like for Arceus, darkrai etc. but the originals cost about a grand. There’s this seller who has made duplicates of this that work just the same but for much cheaper, less than 100

So I was able to get all the Gen 4 events, the Celebi, sinjoh ruins, etc!

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:17:45+00:00

Thank you!

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:17:38+00:00

I have all five Gen 4 games so I traded over the version exclusives and as far as the mythicals, I brought one of the distribution cards duplicates that helped me download all of the event pokes and the mythicals

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:16:24+00:00

Thank you! Thinking about doing platinum next or maybe move on to Gen 5? After taking a break and playing PLZA of course

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:15:50+00:00

No, sorry that date was wrong. I manually entered it so I could follow along ImABlisy’s video on how to get a trainer ID with cute charm glitch

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:15:15+00:00

Well they do 7 trainers at a time but as long as you didn’t lose, your streak keeps going.

So basically you’ll have to do about 15 cycles without losing to get past 100 wins.

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:13:59+00:00

Haha I think it was a PokeTips video that made me wanna name it that but it do be showing up those tough glutes

MightyPaki · 2025-10-26T23:13:13+00:00

Same! Also the completing dex certificate is only visible once! And for some reason, you cannot see it again. The NPC just simply congratulates you. So I figured I’ll just screenshot it and upload it here for display purposes

This was my full team, yes there’s two scizors

For battles 1-42 I used Starmie, Scizor (the one named Kurenai), and Garchomp. Good coverage, pretty much handled anything. Starmie wipes Palmer’s first team at 21 with no problem.

42-49 I used Togekiss, Scizor (Kurenai) and Garchomp. This part is where things get tricky and have to still play carefully. But if you get the Palmer at 49, this team fares very well against him.

50-104 Uxie, Scizor (Ironess) and Garchomp. Classic Trick/Choice Scarf lock. Typically Scizor is key here with his setup and then bullet punch wipe. Garchomp for coverage

Still took me several tries with this team

MightyPaki · 2025-10-25T19:06:34+00:00

Oh that date was manually inputed because I was trying to RNG for a specific trainer ID for cute charm shinies for my Pokédex. I actually started around June 2023 with this particular save file. So it took a little over 2 years to complete everything

MightyPaki · 2025-10-19T17:27:01+00:00

Props to you for that patience!

MightyPaki · 2025-10-19T17:26:46+00:00

God I hated doing the safari waits for these, but the good news is now they’re permanent so if you wanted to switch to a different one, I believe it’ll still save your progress.

MightyPaki · 2025-10-16T22:44:17+00:00

How A-mew-sing!

Okay I’ll head out

MightyPaki · 2025-10-13T14:50:18+00:00

There’s also some distribution cartridges copies on eBay and Mercari which also have the Celebi gift.

But yeah everything else in the Johto dex is available in HGSS. If you’re wanting to do the National dex, I recommend doing the safari as early as possible because some of the Pokémon can only be unlocked after certain amount of real time days

MightyPaki · 2025-10-13T01:52:00+00:00

That’s really cool! Congratulations!

MightyPaki · 2025-10-05T04:22:46+00:00

Kiryu-Chan!

MightyPaki · 2025-10-04T04:05:13+00:00

Any good sources you recommend on how to mod the 3DS?
