Hi. I'm new to the DS and the last nintendo system I had was the GBC. I'm looking to buy one of the pokemon versions, but I have a pretty simple question about it. Assuming that I use an Action Replay to get all of the event pokemon, is it actually possible to fill the National Dex? In other words can I actually have all of the pokemon ever through trading and things of the like? Having not played since Gold and Silver I am still a huge fan of the classics AKA Charizard, Venasaur, Blastoise, etc...

Also, should I bother to get either D or P, or should I keep myself busy with other games until Platinum comes out?

First off, I'd just wait until Platinum so you do not have to rebuy the same game with some new features. Secondly, you do have to trade for the starters of earlier generations or use your AR to get them.

1st wait for platinum- i got stuck with diamond cause i din't know they were making a new one

2nd you can get all the event pokemon through action replay but if you just use the code that completes the national dex you won't have to get the unless you really want them(for wi-fi trading purposes).

Thanks for the advice about waiting for platinum. Also, the National Dex thing was very usefull, but my final question is, can I physically have all the pokemon in the National Dex?

Yeah you gotta buy other games like LeafGreen/FireRed and Ruby/Sapphire to get the Pokedex totally filled. Kind of annoying, but it's a great game. I'm so glad I'm not determined enough to actually try and fill it :P

Thanks guys. Yeah, I think I'll just use the action replay to get the pokemon that I can't get in the game (ie. all the ones I have to buy other games for). generally speaking I don't like to cheat, but when the devs have made it impossible to collect everything in order to milk every cent from you, then I have to make an exception.
