Pokérus

Post by Pikachu3828 »

For those of you who do not know what Pokérus is, it's a VERY VERY VERY (1 million more very's) rare virus which boosts the growth of your Pokémon.

Anyway, I turned on Pokémon Ruby today to train my recently evolved Cacturne. I was training it in Sky Pillar and went to see it's stats when I noticed it had on it "Status: PKRS". I was very excited at this, since I've never seen a wild shiny Pokémon (except a red Gyarados at Lake of Rage) and I'd suddenly got the Pokérus, which is, like, 4 times as rare! After a few moments of excitement, I checked my other Pokémon in my team, to find that they'd ALL been infected too! AND they're my most powerful team, consisting of Blaziken, Groudon, Gardevoiur etc.

A very good day for me I think :-D

congrats. I got the pokerus on my first silver version file and thought it was something bad like I wouldn't be able to use it in battle so I deleted and started a new file which is my current file that has shinyditto, shinycharizard, shinyblastoise, and shinyvenusaur. if I could trade with ruby and sapphire I would have a shinyfile on my sapphire and ruby. well time to play my fire red rom. yay!

It's on both, it was just a new feature to G/S/C that's been carried over, like shiny Pokémon

My friend got pokérus too. on their Wailord. Luckily, I told them it was good. Purple tag that said "PKRS". And hopefully it will be in FR/LG, too. Time to play my fire red ROM! yay^_^. ANd serebii isn't down, check out www.pokemonfanuniverse.com if you wanna see something on PKRS! but some info they have may be a little outta date. But they have info on PKRS, and one of the best pokedex's out there.
