Mac de DS and Melee! Pokemon Scramble Codes

This will be my last update for a couple of weeks as I am off travelling, but don’t worry! The Pika Club will still be updated so be sure to keep visiting us, you’re sure to find the latest Pokemon news here. That said, there’s really not that much news to report on at the moment, this is only a minor update.

As previously reported on, Nintendo and McDonalds are now offering a DS WiFi service in McDonalds across Japan. Here’s the TV ad for that deal, showing off the Jirachi download event:




Also, for those of you out there that have Melee! Pokemon Scramble, you might be interested in knowing that a secret code has been given out for a Chimchar. That code is 0331-4118. Enter that and you’ll receive a Chimchar that knows Ember.

On a side note, the forums have just got a new summery theme based on Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. Check them out!

Even More Pokemon WiiWare

As reported here the other day, rumours have been abound as to whether the three Myster Dungeon WiiWare games were real or if the scan was a photoshot fake. Today, the Official Japanese Pokemon Site officially announced the 3 games are coming to WiiWare in Japan. The games are titled Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Keep Going! Blazing Adventure Squad!, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Let’s Go! Stormy Adventure Squad! and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Go For It! Light Adventure Squad!

Nothing else is known about these games for now, we’ll let you know when it is known.

More information about Arceus has also been revealed. The Arceus given away at cinemas in Japan will unlock a new region called Shinto Ruins if traded to Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver. However to unlock the region Arceus must first be brought along to the Ruins of Alph where Cynthia will be waiting.

Kanto confirmed to be in Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver

Pokemon site pkmn.net has recently reported that the scans from CoroCoro confirm that the Kanto region WILL be included in Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver. I’m sure this will be endearing news to any long time Pokemon fan who wishes to relive those younger days playing the originals on Gameboy. I know this game is going to be a nostalgia rush for me.

Mysterious New Area

It’s not all rehashing, however. A new area has been spotted on the new Johto map that wasn’t there before. Other than its West Cianwood City who knows what this is, but stay tuned as once we know we’ll let you know!

Clearer CoroCoro scans emerge

Courtesy of Japanese website 2chan.net, clearer magazine scans have been uploaded which reveal some more new information. Listed below is the new information, hit the jump for all of the clearer scans.

  • The Pokédex has a redesigned model and features two colours depending on the gender of the trainer, red for male and pink for female.
  • The touch screen is to feature more predominantely. You can organise your PC, Pokédex and bag items using the touch screen interface.
  • A large scan of the map of Johto suggests players can head west into Kanto. Whether Kanto features in HG/SS is unconfirmed but seems likely as Kanto featured in the original Gold/Silver games.
  • Confirmed! Any of the 493 Pokemon can follow you around and you can talk to them to see how they are feeling at any time.
  • The Pikachu-coloured Pichu given out at recent events in Japan will trigger an event featuring notch-eared Pichu in Ilex Forest, previous home to Celebi.
  • More information about the special event Jirachi has been revealed. It’s available as a WiFi download event in Japan at DS Download Stations and Nintendo Zone areas. Apparently if it’s traded to HG/SS, it will unlock something. Its stats are as follows:
    • Level 5 holding Liechi Berry
    • Knows Wish, Confusion, Rest, Draco Meteor
  • Lastly, pre-orders begin for the game on 4th July in Japan. If you pre-order Heart Gold, you will get a Ho-Oh figure. If you pre-order Soul Silver, you will get a Lugia figure. Pre-order both and you’ll get an Arceus figure.
