What does TM38 in BW do?

 

[Wave⁂]

Blast Fire

 

[Fuelbi]

Lol funny thing

I mixed up the number

I meant to ask TM83

 

[UltiMario]

It increases your Atk and SpA by one Stage.

Move is called "Cheer Up"

 

[kirbyraeg]

That's a pretty awesome new move

 

[Terywj [태리]]

That's a pretty awesome new move

It's the equivalent of Growth, now. Or vice versa.

 

[Wrath`]

Did PO update with B/W metagame?

ulti taught me to proof read........

 

[UltiMario]

Did PO update with B/W meat game?

Yes, it was updated with the meat game.

It had a lot of meat.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

How can I run Black and White on Pokemon Online?

 

[Fuelbi]

You can run BW on PO?

Holy ****, competitive battling here I come again


Too bad ulti's yanking my chain. Btw, I'm stuck because I can't understand japanese. So ok,

Spoiler

you know when the rival with the barrette comes and you see Team Plasma apparently abusing a Munna? What do I do afterwards? I caught a Munna and everything if it matters

Also, I keep hearing talks on the PO chat (yes I know worst place to ever get information, but I happened to be there) that the changes giving to Blaziken will make him top tier... any reason why?

Finally a mod on the BW testing server gave this too me after 5 A$$ hats just played around with me. Probably coulda googled it, but end result the same.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Thanks a million, Wrath!

 

[Fuelbi]

Ok, now I need even MORE BW help

Now Munna, when I try using Psybeam and Psywave, for some reason, Munna won't attack. I'd understand if only I knew Japanese, but I have no idea wtf the game's trying to tell me....

 

[Kofu]

Can you tell us which characters appear when it won't use the moves?

http://www.tokyowithkids.com/fyi/hiragana_chart.html
http://www.tokyowithkids.com/fyi/katakana_chart.html

It would help a lot.

 

[Fuelbi]

Let's see, don't hold me on this because a lot of symbols look a lot like each other

Crap, this is taking too long. I've spent 15 minutes on only 1 line. Let me just take a screenshot instead

 

[Kofu]

lol I can tell you the problem by just looking at the screenshot:

Choroneko is a Dark-type and, therefore, Psychic attacks don't effect it.

But, for translational purposes:
"Yusei no Choroneko ni wa
koukaga hai youda..."

 

[Fuelbi]

Wait, the cat is a dark type?

Coulda sworn it was a normal type, which is why bite wasn't affecting it that much

 

[Wave⁂]

That is pathetic in like three ways.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Why can I make Black / White teams but not actually use them
?

 

[Fuelbi]

I don't even SEE the BW pokemon

Btw, where do you get a Moon Stone in BW? I'd like to evolve my Munna

 

[Terywj [태리]]

I can see the Black and White Pokemon on the Teambuilder (Set Gen. tab to B / W) but I can't play or Find Battle with it.

 

[Fuelbi]

I'd like to test it out, but me being the noob that I am at this game, I need assistance considering that Smogon don't have any guides for the new pokemon yet


Also, god**** it. Another time that I don't understand the ****ed language. One moment I'm fighting N's pokemon that holds a log in front of the second gym where it only deals menial damage to my overleveled Wotter at best, and the next moment it's KOing me with some bull****. Same thing's happened to me like 3 times. Wth just happened to me?

 

[Kofu]

Sounds like either Bide or Focus Energy.

 

[Wrath`]

I can see the Black and White Pokemon on the Teambuilder (Set Gen. tab to B / W) but I can't play or Find Battle with it.

You need to find a server running the B/W tier, beta room did once and tree house server did to.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Are any of the Pokemon Online servers consistently running it now?

 

[UltiMario]

Are any of the Pokemon Online servers consistently running it now?

No...

But if all goes well, that's going to change in less than an hour...

 

[Wave⁂]

OH SHI-

Time to start theorymoning.

 

[Wrath`]

I hope it changes, for I am too advanced for the current servers.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

So has any servers have it updatedd? I made a really sloppy team and want to have it tested out...

 

[UltiMario]

Sorry to disappoint, but things didn't turn out as planned.

I've got the latest alpha for the Gen V client, though. Maybe I can sneak around in their files and find a server.

Edit: Hey guys guess what I found.

 

[Fuelbi]

You found a server to play with BW pokemon


Also, where do you get an Exp Share in BW?

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Edit: Hey guys guess what I found.

Black / White server, Black / White server, Black / White server...

Please?

 

[UltiMario]

Black / White server, Black / White server, Black / White server...

Please?

Delivered. Check the B/W thread.

You can thank me later.

 

[Cease Tick]

Delivered. Check the B/W thread.

You can thank me later.

How do I get the changes?

EDIT: never mind, I was being dumb.

 

[kirbyraeg]

I don't really want to scour the B/W thread or find in-game spoilers, so can you link me to a list of the changes in B/W without any in-game information as well as abilities on older-gen pokes? I'd like to look it over in-depth.

 

[Wave⁂]

http://www.mediafire.com/?17we53hmic8u56m

My .xlsx spreadsheet. Has abilities, stats, and typing of all Isshu Pokémon, Dream World abilities for everyone, sprites, new items, and new moves. Items hasn't been updated in a while, though.

 

[PowerBomb]

Hey, does anyone know how to get B/W sprites onto PO or do I just redownload the whole thing?

 

[Terywj [태리]]

If you downloaded Ulti's update link when you go to Teambuilder it should be there. Just make sure your Gen. tab is under Black / White, of course.

 

[PowerBomb]

Update link in the team builder?

Do I have to be in MP for this to appear or something?

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Did you download the link UltiMario posted in the Black / White thread?
