"Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,


Nintendo of America Inc. provides product support for the United States and
Canada only. With that said, the sleep mode you asked about was not included in
the North American version of the Nintendo DS system. However, as your
feedback is extremely important to Nintendo, we have forwarded your e-mail to
the appropriate departments for further review. While they may not be able to
respond personally to your e-mail, your comments will be heard.

Sincerely,

The sleep mode will be in the European one, so that if someone nearby wants to play, your DS will make a noise. Kind of unfair.

You could use the likes of Iron on your Pokemon once you'd got them to Lv 100 you know. Just to boost the stats that little bit more.

That was useful.

That's why I had no respect for such cheats... and enjoyed crushing them (which I ALWAYS did! :-))

Um..

Selecting an imaginary pill option from the menu didn't exactly feel rewarding anyway; maybe after several huundred battles a few can seem well deserved.... ugh, we talking in depth about the Pokemon stats system. How much more mundane can we get???

Dude, the fact that they used the Rare candy cheat meant that they clearly weren't up for the "effort" points either.
It took so many battles (although it just came naturally if you trained your Pokémon PROPERLY) that they'd try and get round it by feeding them things from Celadon's drug store like Iron to try and boost the stats.

Still only worked to a slight extent though.
I wiped the floor with them EVERY time! ;-)

Yeah whatever, not going to argue about Pokemon.

Yeah but you can do that also by batteling the "old fashioned way".

I continued to train up my team of 6 long after they reached level 100.

Actually Pokemon raised on rare candy simply don't gain effort values, which award bonus stat points, as they are only gained from battling wild Pokemon.


You can however, after raising your Pokemon to lv. 100 on rare candies, battle enough wild pokemon to fill up your effort values, then place your Pokemon in the PC, when you withdraw it the Pokemon will have it's bonus stats.


Call yourself a geek...

Married at 17? Yeah sure.

Actually, (pokegeek moment) Pokemon raised on rare candy had lower stats than those levelled up through battles.

I would most likely never have my DS on and in public where it could be contacted anyway.

I'm sure it's just a software update anyway, and that you'll be able to put it in your USDS.
