Ive finally realised how to get past the quick sand in the Relic Castle and Im think of going back there to get the fossils before trying to capture Zoroark. Im assuming I can only get one fossil (someone correct me if Im wrong). I know Archeops is generally the better of the two but was wondering if I were to get that, does anyone have a Titouga (egg) who would want to trade?

I've got a Tiortuga, and Carracosta can be a good pokemon  too, but you'll have to rely on Shell Smash to actually pull it's strength out, while with Archeops you have access to all of it's power from the get go.

And yes, you can only get one of the fossils.

Ive worked out friend codes now, thankfully Nintnedo didnt make it too complicated, so Im good to trade. If you want I'll try and breed and Archen in return or get another Pokemon if you want.

Nah that's cool, I've got every pokemon I need to fill the dex . I'll have to breed Tiortuga, so give me a moment to do it then.

No rush, probably want to get the Plume Fossil and Zoroark first. This games already taking up a lot of my time, barely been on the Xbox since I got (except for Mass Effect 2 Arrival DLC) and is a bit of a distraction from uni work.

No rush at all, it's pretty easy to breed and hatch pokemon, it took me a bit over 5 minutes to get your Tiortuga. Whenever you feel like it, it's stored

Oh ok thanks, didnt expect it to be so quick. I'll send you a message when Im ready



I have tried to find the very valuable item at the end of Abyssal Ruins but can't due to Torrent.



I got Pokemon Black over the weekend and have been playing for a few hours. I'm playing more methodically and slowly than I did SoulSilver so I can see who I want in my team instead of running through and exploring and just having a de facto team like I did last time. So far though, this game is a blast. All new pokemon is a great idea and this game really feels distant from others in the series in terms of the pokemon and the cities. Btw, where does everyone get these nifty images of their teams in their sigs from? They look awesome.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

I downloaded mine from a gif pack that has all 649 pokemon and upload the ones that I want over at Photobucket, but you can find nifty images from bulbapedia too.

does anyone has a cranidos? I'm willing to trade any of the 3 black/white starters for it or a zorua for it.
