What are the
differences between Pokemon Diamond & Pearl? Which one should I buy?
The Pokemon that can be
caught differ from each version.
How to increase the happiness
of the Pokemon quickly?
(1) Catch Pokemon in luxury ball
(2) Let the pokemon hold the "Soothe Ball". This boosts the happiness
it gets while walking.
(3) Keep it as the first Pokemon in
the party. Walk with your pokemon as much as you can (keep it in your party), you can
atleast keep it in your party and let it other pokemon battle while your pokemon
is holding exp-share so it even gets some EVs and some happiness.
(4) Win in super contests
(5) Give it the berry it likes (but check the EV guide for info about berries
that lowers the EV)
(6) Heal your pokemon immediately from any status change. Using Momo Milk for
healing (Solaceon
Town, Route 210) can increase a pokemon happiness. Do not let your pokemon
faint.
How do I level up
my Pokemon Quickly?
[1] Held Item:Exp Share Item: Let a pokemon that does not battle hold Exp
Share, and it will get the same Exp and EV that your pokemon which had battled!
[2] Trade from GTS: Pokemon traded from GTS get a BOOSTED Experience!!! So If
you usually get 100, you would get over 200! (sometimes using Expshare on
pokemon from GTS, It could get over 600 exp if it could get even just 100)
[3] Held Item: Lucky Egg: This item can be found very rarely on wild Chansey, If
you happened to get it, the pokemon that Lucky Egg is attached to will get more
EXP
If your pokemon got the
Pokemon virus Pokerus, it would also boost the Experience it gets.
*Note: Keeping the
Pokemon in the Daycare only levels the Pokemon up, it does not increase any
stat.
