Went, picked up 2 Arceus, an extra Pikachu colored Pichu, Birthday Charmander and Shiny Eevee.
Wasn't too fussed about the Milotic or the Octillery.
Traded someone a Torchic for a Pikachu with Surf as well

Nice! Did you go to the one on Oxford Street or another one nearer to you? Did you get the rare event pokes from traders there (I guess so) or a magical machine that I missed that distributes every event poke? I think that surfing Pikachu can be obtained from Pokemon Battle Revolution, at least that's where I got mine. CAN'T WAIT FOR HG/SS NOW!! ONLY.....10 days...

Picked up HeartGold.

Ugh, every store was sold out of SoulSilver.
EBGames had about 20 copies of Gold, 0 of Silver (It had already sold out after the pre-orders were picked up)
Wal-Mart didn't even have any copies on shelf.

I wanted Silver, but I guess Gold will do.

Kinda just said I was at the Oxford St one :\
Apparently there was a machine error, if you'd stuck around then people were shouting out what was being distributed.
Also, it's 11 days. 26-03-2010

I'm sorry, that is the best ever 'machine error'. Usually I receive the 'error' where your chocolate bar gets stuck in the vending machine . When did it happen during the day and is it fixed yet ?

Oh and soz I didn't see you say Oxford St. lol

The machine was there for the day, that was it.
It seemed to last between about 12:00 and 2:30 PM, either way this isn't the place for it.
They were demoing Heart Gold and Soul Silver at the event, I'm pretty sure they must have been US copies of the game.
Wishing I'd traded some stuff off of them now =_=

Oh, come on! You are so lucky I couldn't even go to the Jirachi event

And so it seems that the only difference between HG and SS is Lugia and Ho-Oh.

So much to do, and so little time. Where's an ocarina when you need one?

On the road to enlightenment, I found a bird that I paid to speak to my soul. I want my money back...

ok, remember earlier in the thread i complained about cheaters and people that use r4s and stuff, well i have this quirk because my type of autism that i feel i have to open birthday gifts when i get them, and earlier today guess what my birthday present was:
an r4
that is the definition of irony
-.-
i'd be surprised if hg/ss are on it

Potato, I'd suggest changing your username to another childhood favourite, "Pop-Up Pirate".

Friggin' Game Freak still won't let me put my actual name in the Pokemon games. Like come on, is eight letters really too long?

Aw, quit complaining.
For me whose first actual English Pokemon game was Platinum, had to make do with 5 spaces.

Yay! Got my SoulSilver from Gamestop today. Also got the figurine, Stat guide(It only covers Johto) and I asked for the promotional big box game case and they gave it to me!

You can also breed a Smeargle that learnt Surf (through Sketch) and a Pikachu to get a Surfing Pikachu.

That won't work. The father has to be Smeargle for surf, but the pokemon that hatches will be a Smeargle. There is no way for Pikachu to learn Surf/Fly other than events.

Also, Yellow Forrest route available!

how about ppokemon battle revolution where when you complete it you get the mystery gift pikachu you can send to your ds.

Haha just got the same email from GAME about my HG order

... Really hoping HMV will make the same price drop -__-
Agitated by the number of US copies of Silver that are taunting me from ebay at the moment as it is.

Just Got The Game Yesterday! Up to Training For 2nd Sliver Fight and 2nd Gym! Picked Totodile!

As of yesterday, I'm two steps away from the first Suodowoodo. I picked Cindaquil, which is now a Quilava at level 23. I haven't played since yesterday about 5 PM, but I was on the Pokewalker pretty much until 10.

I'm Burning Way Past Cool, it's kind of hot in here.

I'd consider that an event. And that Pikachu has a jank nature. At least with the Forrest Pikachu you can get a surfing pika with Modest.

Going down to game with about 10 friends to get it on friday. Should be awesome.

Anyone got any comments on the Pokewalker?

Good luck to each of you. I hope you don't have any disputes...

Look on the floor and all is spinning round

Good But the Capture System IS VERY BAD!

Screw that person who said their favourite Pokemon was Miltank. Witney's Miltank was giving me problems, didn't help that she was spamming the infatuation move, along with Super Potions.

I bought HeartGold; had no trouble getting it on Sunday, got to TRU shortly after they opened.

Just beat Falkner! I loved how they used the 3D capabilities of the DS in that gym haha. Also ... I just stumbled upon the Wi-Fi Plaza. Completely trivial, but cute nonetheless!

My current team:
Totodile Lvl. 13
Onix Lvl. 10
Spinarak Lvl. 9
HootHoot Lvl. 8

Is anybody else not enjoying the UI in this game so far? I mean, it isn't horrible by any means, but it just doesn't feel right in so many places; particularly the "Start" menu being on the bottom screen. Maybe this is just because I am left-handed; if I was right-handed they would make a bit more sense since I would be able to move with my left hand, and control everything else with my right. Either way though, they are just needlessly separating things onto separate screens. The D/P menus were OK, but even then, there were inferior to the GBA iterations of Pokemon.
