"Pure"nell's Poke Help [Friendship]

Maybe one of you guys can help me out here.

I need a female Lucario. Right now, I'm working on growing berries to bump up my Riolu's happiness but I'd figure that if one of guys already had one, it would save me the waste of a day or two and the usage of however many berries I'd expend. Any takers?

Pokemon Ranch Update

Nintendo has updated the Everyone's Pokemon Ranch website with a few new details on the upcoming Wii Ware killer app that doesn't have Final Fantasy in the title.

Everyone's Pokemon Ranch (in Japanese, Minna no Pokemon Bokujou) is a downloadable Wii Ware game that lets you interact with your Pokemon. The game will feature connectivity with Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, allowing players to view and spend time with the Pokemon they've collected in the DS titles.

The ranch where you raise your Pokemon was built and is owned by Yukari, a girl who happens to be a friend of Mizuki, a character from the Japanese Diamond & Pearl.

Pokemon Ranch offers more than just a spreadsheet style view of your Pokemon collection. Once you've transfered your Pokemon over from Diamond & Pearl, your Pokefriends appear on Yukari's ranch in full 3D. They'll dance, parade around, and show off all sorts of other animations. Yukari herself will also interact with the Pokemon, as will your Miis.

One way that you'll be able to interact with your Pokemon is by taking pictures. Take a shot, and you can save it to SD for transfer to a PC, or you can send it to friends.

Those who do just want a means of managing their Pokemon will find it as well. The game will accept up to 1000 Pokemon that you've caught in Diamond & Pearl. A few screens have shown a ranch full of nothing but Pikachu, so it appears that you're free to use this tool however you please.

In Japan, Pokemon Ranch will launch with the Wii Ware service this March. We expect an international release to follow soon after.

2 weeks and no posts

I beat the elite 4 (Pearl) Monday. The new moon is scheduled for tomorrow, while the Cartoon Network "Pokemon: Rise of Darkrai" movie is scheduled for Sunday. I need you guys to keep you eyes/ears open. This time next week I'm hoping to have at least 2 Darkrai's Dark Void'in it up.

Please use this post to either respond to your personal Darkrai preparation, efforts to help me obtain Darkrai, or to prove that you aren't dead and this blog is still being read.

Red Brick, anyone?

Matt (Zero) and I will be hanging out at the Red Brick Station in the Avenue at White Marsh tonight around 9:30 if anyone is interested in battling, trading, or 99 cent pints. Anyone who's interested, send me a text or call me at 410-459-7001. Or just let me know here and meet in the bar area after 9:30.

Preping for Darkrai ....

As I told Matt (Zero) earlier, I currently playing through Pearl (Diamond is my master game). Just in case there is a "beat the elite" clause in obtaining Darkrai. I know it's a lot of work for someone I'll never get to use, but at least I will be able to get a Palkia.
