Manufacturer's Description
--------------------------
Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version return
players to the scenic Johto region first introduced in the
beloved original Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver games nearly a
decade ago. The richly detailed adventure of Pokémon Gold and
Pokémon Silver is now enhanced for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo
DSi systems with updated graphics and sound, as well as new
touch-screen features and a host of surprises. Each HeartGold and
SoulSilver feature a unique new Pokémon so that players can
choose which new character they want based on which game they
choose to buy. Those who want to play both characters may choose
to pick up both games. Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon
SoulSilver Version bring dozens of Pokémon characters back into
the limelight for a new Pokémon generation - and longtime fans -
to catch, train and battle.
The Pokéwalker Included:
The Pokéwalker is a special pedometer that you carry with you
that lets you take Pokémon fun wherever you go! You can transfer
a Pokémon onto the Pokéwalker accessory using an infrared
connection between the Pokéwalker and your Game Card. Then as you
Stroll around with your Pokémon, it’ll earn Experience Points to
gain a level. And you can even find items and special Pokémon
while you’re on the go! The Pokéwalker is small enough that you
can keep it in your pocket and take wherever you go. It also has
a clip to hook it on your belt, and a hole for attaching a strap.
It’s never been easier to take Pokémon with you!
Pokéwalker The Pokéwalker counts the number of steps you take as
you walk around. The more steps you take, the more Watts you
earn, which you can spend to find items and Pokémon!
When you transfer a Pokémon from your game into your Pokéwalker,
you can select which Route you’d like to take your Pokémon along.
Depending on which Route you take (such as in a grassland or by
the sea), you’ll encounter different wild Pokémon and find
remarkable items. When you first begin your journeys with the
Pokéwalker, the list of Routes you can select from is short. But,
the more you take a Stroll with your Pokémon, the more Routes
will appear and the more Pokémon and items you’ll be able to get!
Catch Wild Pokémon!
After you’ve collected some Watts by going on a Stroll with your
Pokémon, spend some of them to use the Poké Radar to catch wild
Pokémon! If you see tall grass rustling after you use the Poké
Radar, you know you’ve found a Pokémon. You have three options in
the battle. You can attack, evade, or catch the wild Pokémon. By
attacking, you can wear down the wild Pokémon to make it easier
to catch. If you choose to evade when the wild Pokémon attacks,
you’ll perform a counterattack! And when you think the timing is
right, throw a Poké Ball to catch the Wild Pokémon. You can keep
up to three caught Pokémon in your Pokéwalker at a time. If you
catch a fourth Pokémon, you must choose one of them to set free.
Find Items!
Use the Pokéwalker’s Dowsing Machine to help find items. Like
the Poké Radar, you use the Watts you earned while walking to use
the Dowsing Machine. Some of the items you can find are quite
uncommon! When you use the Dowsing Machine, you’ll see six
patches of tall grass, and one of them has a hidden item in it.
You have only two chances to discover the item! Some of the items
you can get are really hard to find and very valuable, so keep
hunting!
Time to Transfer!
Once you’ve found Pokémon and items using your Pokéwalker, you
can send them back to your Pokémon game. You can only keep up to
three Pokémon and three items in your Pokéwalker at a time, so be
sure to send them to your game when your inventory fills up!
Remember, if you catch a fourth Pokémon in your Pokéwalker,
you’ll have to swap out one of the three Pokémon you’ve already
caught.
The Pokéwalker Journal
After your Pokémon has spent some time in your Pokéwalker, you
can get a recap in the Pokéwalker Journal. The journal tells of
all the places the Pokémon has been and the things it has found
while traveling inside your Pokéwalker! For example, if you catch
a particular Pokémon while out on a Stroll, your Pokéwalker
Journal will make note of it. It will also keep track of how your
Pokémon has behaved while inside your Pokéwalker!
Pokéwalkers Communicate with Each Other!
The Pokéwalkers don’t communicate only with Game Cards—they can
also communicate with each other! When you connect Pokéwalkers
with a friend, you’ll both receive an item as a gift! You can
connect two Pokéwalkers via infrared signal by pointing them at
each other. When you do so, both players will receive an item!
You can receive up to ten items by connecting to your friends,
but you can get only one gift per person, per day.
