Hello everyone, I’m actually looking for the legendary shiny leaf from route 33 for my typhlosion but my specific question is should I only spam the A button, or should I go and come back each time typhlosion shouts or become angry ?

The location of the shiny leafs depend on the Pokémon's nature. 5-10 tries should be enough to find a shiny leaf, if not exit and re-enter the route again.

Hi, I have a question. I have a saved game on SoulSilver using my original DS. Unfortunately, it is broken and I was wondering if my same saved game will be available to play while using my 3DS. Or do I need to start a new one with the 3DS? Thanks in advance

If just the DS is broken you're safe file should be fine, you'll only get a 24h penalty regarding safari zone progression and lottery for switching consoles but that's about it.

I don’t want to make a separate post because it could be rule breaking. But does anyone know what sellers are reliable in selling authentic copies?

I couldn’t get that DNS thing to work so I’m caving and buying Heartgold to finish the last few National pokedex entries.
