Topic	I caved. I bought Pokemon BD/SP. What kind of playthrough should I do first?
Calwings 11/30/21 1:47:38 PM #48:	Compsognathus posted... Did they change Palkia's catch rate? I feel like in the OG games you could basically just toss a Quick Ball at it and catch it on the first try more often than not and if that didn't work you just chucked Dusk Balls until one of them did. According to Serebii, Dialga and Palkia had a catch rate of 30 back in the original D/P but it was lowered to 3 (the "standard" catch rate for legendaries) in OR/AS and that carried over to this game. The catch rate being higher in the originals makes sense because you're forced to fight them to progress the story, but the whole "if you don't catch a legendary, it'll respawn after you beat the Elite Four again" thing wasn't added until Platinum. KFHEWUI posted... You have to complete the Pokdex to access Ramanas Park? UGH..... You need to see (not catch, just see) all 150 Pokemon in the Sinnoh Dex, then talk to Professor Rowan and get the National Dex. Getting that unlocks most of the postgame stuff, including Ramanas Park and a bunch of new Pokemon in the Underground. It is possible to see every Pokemon in the Sinnoh Dex (even the other version's cover legendary, thanks to an old lady in Celestic Town and her books) in one game without trading. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://imgur.com/PfJxO7u <cite>Calwings posted [p:960493429] in I caved.
