Lucario
To get Lucario, go to Mt. Iron and search for a guy named Riley. After you teamed up with him, go search for two Team Galactic Grunts. (afcourse you have to fight with them.) After you beat them, you get an egg from Riley. Hatch it to get a Riolu, then evolve it to a Lucario. (It will only evolve at daylight)

Pokemon Masks
To get the three starter pokemon masks, first talk to the old lady on the first floor of the Veilstone Department Store. She will give you the Turtwig Mask. Then go to Pastoria City. Talk to a girl with blond hair. She will give you the Piplup mask. Finally go to Jubilife City. Go to the Jubilife TV building. Then go to the second floor. Talk to a man with sunglasses. He will give you the Chimchar mask.

Eevee evolved forms
After receiving eevee, think about what evolved form your eevee deserves. There are 7 choices: flareon, jolteon, vaporeon, espeon, umbreon, glaceon or leafeon. Use a fire stone to evolve eevee to flareon, thunder stone for jolteon, water stone for vaporeon, trade at day espeon, trade at night umbreon, train near the icy rock glaceon and train near the mossy rock leafeon.

How to Catch Regigigas
You must first have regirock, regice and registeel in your party and can be traded from sapphire, ruby or emerald using from pal park. Once the 3 are in your party, go to snowpoint temple. Only those with the national pokedex can be allowed to enter. Inside the snowpoint temple, search for regigigas. It will not appear randomly. Once found, battle and catch it. Remember the 3 regis must be in your party or you cannot battle nor catch it.

Eevee
After receiving National Dex, you have to go to Hearthome City. Go to Bebe's home and talk to her. She then will give you an Eevee.

All Pokemon
You cannot catch all Pokemon in this game. You must trade them from your Game Boy Advance Pokemon games. In this game, you can get all the fourth generation Pokemon, but only about fifty original Hoenn / Kanto / Johto Pokemon.

Hatching eggs quickly
While still in Solaceon town, get on the far right side of the path next to the Pokemon Center. -- Simply ride your bike in the fastest gear up and down until you hit a tree or mountain and repeat. You must have done at least 400 steps each "lap" and get a egg or get one to hatch more quickly than riding elsewhere.

Mystery Gift
At the Jubilife television station, talk to anyone you see. If you find the person enter "EVERYBODY HAPPY". Then for the WiFi people enter "WI-FI CONNECTION". Those will get you Pokemon such as Arceus, Shaymin, and Darakai. Note: You must have a WiFi or DS wireless link cable.

Polishing your Badges
Open your Trainer card menu. Open your badge case and rub the stylus over the badges that you have won from the gym leaders. They will become shiny after a good polishing. Also, each badge makes a different noise, allowing you to play them like an instrument.

Calculator sound
Use the calculator on the Poketech. If you get an answer to a problem it will make a sound oise corresponding to the number/Pokemon in the Pokedex, but only if you have seen that Pokemon.

Tricking the clock
Because the in-game clock is in sync with your Nintendo DS and since certain events only happen every once in a while, there is a simple but not-so-obvious solution -- just adjust your DS clock. For example, the guard in the Pokemon Mansion is guarding the Bronze Statue around the clock, but he takes a break between 2 and 5 a.m. Just adjust your clock to that time and he will be gone. You can also do this to speed up berry production by jumping a few days back and forth.

Chatot: Chatter
If you do a bit of exploring and talking to people, you will eventually encounter someone who says that Chatot can learn human words. Once you obtain one (after trading with a girl in an early town) and get it to about level 20, it will learn the move Chatter. As they said, it can indeed learn human words. Once it learns Chatter, go to your Pokemon menu and select "Chatot". It will show Chatter along with summary, switch, and etc. From here, press A and record what you want to say in the DS mic. Not only will Chatot say what you said whenever you use the move Chatter, but it will become its cry. Note: This is not permanent, so you can change its Chatter as often as desired. Also, the speech will be slightly distorted so it will not sound exactly as you said it. The recorded sound lasts for only one day, so you will have to re-record it.

Amity Square Park items
In Amity Square Park in Hearthhome City, walk 200 steps, then talk to your Pokemon. It should be holding an item. Also, if you try to go in without a cute Pokemon, the man at the entrance will tell you which Pokemon are allowed.

Special items
Catch a Pokemon that knows the move Trick, then go to a Pokemon such as Bidoof or Starly. The Pokemon that knows the move Trick must have an item. Then, use the move Trick on the Pokemon and you will rarely get an item.

Underground
If someone is in your Secret Base and you are about to go back up to the surface, tell them first. If you go back up to the surface when someone else is in your Secret Base, it takes them back to the menu of the game, and they will lose all of the progress they made.

Tricking the clock
Because the in-game clock is in sync with your Nintendo DS and since certain events only happen every once in a while, there is a simple but not-so-obvious solution -- just adjust your DS clock. For example, the guard in the Pokemon Mansion is guarding the Bronze Statue around the clock, but he takes a break between 2 and 5 a.m. Just adjust your clock to that time and he will be gone. You can also do this to speed up berry production by jumping a few days back and forth.

Transferring Pokemon
When you transfer Pokemon from Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, Fire Red, Leaf Green,or Emerald, they can never go back to their original game. Do not transfer every Pokemon in the boxes you see. Make sure you leave at least some Pokemon with high levels and medium levels so you can still catch the strong Pokemon such as like legendaries.

Beating Gym Leaders The Easy Way
Here are some couple of Pokemon types you can use at the Gym Leaders of Sinnoh:
Roark: Fighting, Water, Grass, Ground. (there is a Machop at route 204)
Gardenia: Fire, Flying, Ice.
Maylene: Psychic, Flying. (I recommend a Noctowl, which I used)
Wake: Electric, Grass, Dragon (because he has a Gyarados)
Fantina: Anyone will work, only thing you need to do is train a lot
Byron: Grass, Water, Fighting, Fire.
Candice: Fire, Dragon, Ground.
Volkner: No hints for that one.

Evolve Pokemon With Love
If you aren't very successful at evolving pokemon that need love (Budew, Buneary, Happiny and more.) or if you're too lazy, try this. Catch the pokemon in a luxury ball, than give it a soothe bell. then train it till it evolves.

How to get papal
Pal Park will be on route 221 when you get the National Dex.

Easy level ups for weak pokemon
To get weak pokemon up quickly you have 4 options. Leave them in the day care and pay 100 + 100 per every level grow or put an exp share on the weak pokemon and put a strong pokemon at the front of your party and battle high level pokemon or put the weak pokemon at the front of the party and switch him out for a stronger pokemon next turn or trade pokemon with a friend and you both say to level those up to a certain level (traded pokemon get boosted exp per battle).

Television pokemon
Go to the Old Chateau between the hours of 10pm and 4am. Walk into any room with a television and look at the screens *(click "a" so your person "looks" at the screen)*. There is a possibility that a strange pokemon jumps out at you. This pokemon looks like a little electric castform.

Rhydon learn surf
Rhydon can learn surf seriously a rock/ground can learn surf makes battling easier.

How to get drifloon
If you are wondering how to get a drifloon and have been looking everywhere, well here is the answer to your problems, all you have to do is on a Friday (and it has to be Friday or else it is not there)go to the vally windworks and he will be there. He will be staying like legendary pokemon are! and that my friends is the way to get a drifloon!

How to get a shiny gyarados easily
Go to varity lakefront after you have court azelf, uxie and mespirt and use super rod, it could tackle a few times but it is by far the quickest way, it only took me 20 mins to get him, just make sure it's a super rod or it doesn't work!

The best starter
The best pokemon to start with is Empoleon in the end it's the best.

Box's hand
While moving pokemon in the box push "Y" to change the color of the hand from yellow to white.

Scizor Capture
The truth is in pearl, the area of scizor nor scyther is unknown. It can only be found in diamond. Trade with a diamond user who has a scyther and it shall evolve into scizor. If the both of you want scizor, cloning might have helped by using a ditto but takes a long time and patience.

Catching Drifblim
Unfortunately, its area is unknown so i suggest you to catch drifloon. During Friday, go to valley windworks and you'll find drifloon standing there. Go and catch it at once. Remember only Fridays. If the date on your ds is not Friday, adjust it. After catching drifloon, level it up until level 28 then it becomes a drifblim. Daycaring it up to level 28 is not going to work. Or daycare it up into level 27 and then do some training until it levels up and evolves. If you want another drifblim, do the same process. Another way for those with national pokedex is that for you to clone by catching a ditto at the grass patches near canalave. Then daycare driblim and ditto and it will breed the drifloon egg. Get the egg then hatch it. Its drifloon then level up to level 28 for another drifblim.

Shiny Stones
You can use shiny stones to evolve roselia to roserade and togetic to togekiss.

Free Masterballs
Fly to solaceon then save. Enter the house near the pokemon center then talk to the guy sitting there near the book. He will be asking for a random pokemon. Bring him the pokemon at once. Once you have the pokemon in the party, do not enter the house yet. Save it first then talk to the guy who is asking for the pokemon. He will give you any free pokeball. If not a masterball, turn off the ds and try again.

Giratina Capture
After receiving the national pokedex, go to sendoff spring then head to turnback cave and find giratina. Its easy to capture by battling it using staraptor. Only Slash attack works against it. So use ultra balls or timer balls.

Arcanine power
Breed a growlithe and hatch the egg you will have a level 1 growlithe use a firestone on growlithe and it will evolve into a level 1 arcanine. When you evolve growlithe at level 1 into arcanine, arcanine learns thunder fang, fire fang, and bite. Now that's a pretty good combination.
P.S. fire pokemon rule they are virtually indestructible

Creepy eyes
Go into the freaky house in the woods and up the stairs. When you go into the door on the 2nd floor turn right and find the room with a painting on the wall. Walk right in front of it. The eyes of the painting disappear. Run backwards & forwards in front of it and eventually you'll meet the extremely rare GENGAR!

Trainer Flung
If you go to your Pokedex and check the weight for a large sized Pokemon, like Giratina, your trainer should be flung up in the air by the imbalance of weight on the scale.

2nd Way to Hatch an egg faster
When receiving an egg, choose an Pokemon that has the ability Magma Armor or Flame Body.Put that pokemon in your team, the ability will cause the number of steps cut in half.

How to catch an Giratina
It is kind of hard to catch Giratina, first, Go inside the Turnback Cave, search for Giratina, when you find it, it will be moving, like a moving statue.The easiest way to catch it is throwing a Master Ball. If you don't have one, lower down its HP to red. You have to have 6 Reapeat Balls and 20 Dusk Balls. Start throwing the Reapeat Balls, if you run out of Reapeat Balls, throw your Dusk Balls. You may capture him.

The good way to get Shiny Pokemon
To get Shiny pokemon, capture 2 Dittos. Put them in the Daycare in Solaceon Town. The chance of the Shinys may arrive. Or, simply walk in to the grass, use your Poke-Radar. If there is a Shiny Patch, walk in to it. There may be a Shiny. But it is Incredibly rare. I never found a Shiny.

Capture other peoples pokemon!
Use your Vs. Seeker or walk in front of a person. When the Trainer sends out his pokemon, tt's your choice, use a Master Ball or a Cherish Ball.

Lazy Training: Good!!!
If you want to train a pokemon and its to weak... Well use your Exp. Share! You must train with a Lv.55 to 45 or 40. Then go into victory road, or Route 223 or 222. You may train your battling pokemon and the pokemon that is not in battle, if your pokemon gets 200 Exp. Points or less, train in another place.

How to get much masterballs
You need to have to pokemons like miltank and touros. Give them both of them a masterball. Give them to the daycare lady. You will get eggs let them hatch and some of them got a masterball!!

Get the item evolutions with only one level
You all know that some of the pokemon have to be holding certain items to be able to evolve to their last form... And I'm sure you all get quite annoyed when you have to level them up a bunch just to get them there...
Well there's this nice little trick I think everyone who hates this should know about! If your trying to evolve a pokemon with an item, I suggest saving all the rare candies that you get through the game until the end... cause when you give a rare candy to a pokemon that needs an item to evolve while its holding that item, it only takes one rare candy to do the job!
This also works for the two new evolutions for Eevee!!! Just give the Eevee a rare candy while your next to either the mossy rock in the eterna forest or the icy rock in the blizzard area and they will immediately evolve!

Giratina in pokemon pearl and diamond
First gain your nationaldex by completing your sinnohdex and obtaining your pokeradar. Go to vielstone city, then go down completely and go in the little building and in this building, you will see a purple fat man (there is just one person in this building) if you talk to him, he will say something that the following route is ugly I think if he does, you are in the good way. Then continue going down and watch carefully at the trees at your right of the screen. Then you will see a new opening in these trees, go in. Continue going and you will see lot of grass there (there will be bibarels, staravia and a little chance chimeco) you will see a rock climb, use rock climb and you will see a bridge it is not necessary to go there there will be nothing you will see more grass there are many golducks continue and you will see a rock climb going down use rockclimb and you will see an entrance of a cave, go in! there will be fog in it and you will need to use rock smash. Then on somes big walls there will be codes ingore them and go in any directions you want(in the other caves in the sames cave) and if you some bronzong lv 66/65 or haunter lv66/65/64 or golbats that has mean look lv66/65, it means you are very close to GIRATINA.

How to get cresselia
After getting your national dex, fly in canalave city go in the sailors house(don't worry, his house is the closest house where it stands)go in and you will be seeing his son lying on his bed. Talk to him and he will be saying something about: dar. . .dark is watching me! he wanted to say darkrai is watching me. So go out again and talk to his father: the sailor and he will tell you if you can help his son say yes, and he will travel with you somewhere on a new ilsand called fullmoon island and it will appear like a new island on your map. Then when you are infront of him, do not save. He will fled if you talk that you must do then it will let an item on a floor take it. Then sail back to canalave and talk to the son of the sailor which will be in his house on his bed and tell you if you want to use the item found that cresselia let down and the son will wake up! now go and find cresselia.

How to catch azelf
First, you get a pokemon that can paralyze or put azelf to sleep. Then, keep on using false swipes. I recommend you use paralyze because if you put it to sleep, it will easily wake up. Keep on throwing different types of pokéballs because azelf is a psychic type, and more oddly, I caught my azelf with a net ball! It'll take about 15-20 pokéballs, and don't use your masterballs!!!

Daycare
Put your pokemon in the daycare in Solaceon Town. Go outside onto the dirt road. Go all the way to the right on the dirt road and get on your bike. Go straight up until you hit a dead end. Then go straight down until you hit a dead end. If you have the poketch app daycare checker, now is the time to use it. After you go up and down a few times click on the screen with the poketch app daycare checker. If you have higher level pokemon, you will have to run longer.

Touch Pokemon Mansion statue
Around 2-5 am, the guard goes on break and you can go to the statue and get fingerprints on it, since the game time is in sync with the ds time, just change the time in the ds to make it morning.

Name Changes Cry
If you give your Pokemon his Chinese name, he will make a different sound then he used to do.

Legend of Zelda Reference
When you get the Azure Flute to get arceus (get the mystery gift for the flute) the flute will look like the ocarina of time from "legend of zelda and the ocarina of time".

Easy way to beat battle tower
If you have high level pokemon on any gba games...... get them all together migrate them to pokemon pearl catch them and challenge battle tower using the high lvl pokemon best off using the starter pokemon to gain an advantage.

Collecting All Unown
If you have collected all unowns, go to ruin maniacs tunnel. Go straight in the tunnel and you'll end up in the opening near solaceons tunnel.

Badges
In polishing badges, select your trainer card and press the button at the bottom of the gym leaders. Rub the badges each using your stylus until it becomes shiny. If you would notice, touch each badge at once in order starting from the oreburgh's badge to the sunyshore's badge. It would play do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti and do.

Picture
In the old chateou in the eterna forest go into the house and go up the stairs to your left and enter the room in the middle of the hallway while your still on the top floor. As soon as you enter the new floor, go to the room next to the rooom in front of you to your right. There you will see a purple picture. if you go near it, there will kust be a purple canvas, but if you go away from it, there will be two red dots like eyes staring at you from the picture...

Egg hatching
There is different time to a egg hatch. The most normal is 5000 steps, but some eggs took more steps to hatch. If you know who pokemon is inside you can sometime know how many steps to walk. With Hapinsay it took me 15000 steps before the egg hatch. Eevee take 10000-11000 steps

Pokemon Eggs
After recieving your national pokedex, you have to catch a ditto to mate. Put that and any of pokemon in the Solocean's Day Care Center. When there is an egg in Day Care app of the poketch, go to the husband and you will get the egg. When it hatches, it will be the pokemon you had the ditto mate with. It will have the same moves as the pokemon the ditto mated with. It is so cool!

How to unlock Ditto
To unlock Ditto go to the Pokemon Mansion go to the first room to the right and save the game. After, talk to mister Backlot and he will ask if you are envious 2 times and answer Yes. He will say to you a special Pokemon that he saw like Castform and if he don't say Ditto turn off the DS and start again, after go to the trophy garden and if you have good luck you will encounter a Ditto.

Burying Spheres
In the underground you can bury a sphere and bury the same kind where it is and it will be bigger. But it will not add the same amount as it gets bigger it's faster than normal!

Glich City!!! *any city (maybe)*
For example: in Jublife City and Calacave City, you got to enter this hall-like room where you can get the good rod. If you have an action replay, put the run or walk anywhere code. Walk/run though the trees next to the the room, turn around, and repeat the same thing. There you have Jublife City... Glitch style!!! Oh, if you do this with a bike, after you get off of your bike, you'll turn into a glitch box!!!

Loud level up
When you run into a wild pokemon scream / yell / play loud music into the mic. The pokemon should be higher level than it was supposed to be. Reminder: this only works on WILD POKEMON, not pokemon you've caught.

Ghost
Go toold cheatu in eterna at night and go in the room with the purple painting and if there's a little girl in the room on the right, just watch. If shes not there, keep going in and out until you see her she will be in the room on the right. She will turn, the FLOAT out of the room. She goes through the door you can tell it doesn't sound like she iss opening or closing the door!!!

No Eyes
Go down route 214 to Valor lakefront, keep going south until you see a lady standing outside her motel room door, you will also a fat man, keep going to the southern edge of a paved path near 8 small bushes all in a row, walk east until the fat guy has a "!" over his head and he will push you back, now hes facing south, excellent, now make sure your as close as possible to a small square of bushes, walk east 3 steps and the fatty will lose his eyes.
