Q) How does shaking grass occurs?

A) One new feature introduced to Pokemon Black and White is the mysterious "rustling grass patches," which you'll be able to encounter on any route with tall grass on it after you've earned the Trio Badge. If you hear a rustling, like you're walking through grass when you're not, stop moving! Then, look around at all of the nearby patches of grass. Are any of them shaking suspiciously? If so, you're going to want to head directly to that shaking patch, because there's a rare Pokemon in there!

Early on, this is usually the healing Pokemon, Audino, which is fortunate because you gain a lot of EXP if you knock it out (and you can catch it if you want, too), but later on, you can find some pretty cool stuff in those rustling patches.

It is always good to have a couple of Repels on hand just in case you see a rustling patch, because if you get into a battle between here and there, you'll lose the rustling patch!

Oh yeah, and in different terrains, like caves and water, it'll be different, so just be on the lookout for them! Inside of caves, you'll see a little dust cloud swirling around (referred to as "dust cloud"), while in the water, you'll see a little blue circle signifying a ripple near the surface (referred to as "rippling water").

If you want to encounter some rustling grass, the best way to do so is to run up and down directly outside of the tall grass. Right along the border of it. Keep doing that, preferably with your volume up, and you should see some grass shake within a minute or two at the most. If you're not seeing it shake and have tried for several minutes, perhaps leave the area and come back later.

Q) Once I start a new game, I can't save?

A) I you want to save a new game, erase your save file. During the title screen, press Up+Select+B, Select YES twice.

Q) My Pokémon won't gain EXP?!

A) You should need an anti piracy patch for the ROM. In the real NINTENDO DS game card, I can't do this. If your Pokémon won't gain EXP, please report to Nintendo about Pokémon can't gain EXP after the battle.

Q) Is there a move called "Tombstoner" introduced in Pokémon Black and White Version?

A) No. It does not. The only thing that a move called "Tombstoner" appears in Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed & LeafGreen. This appeared when you answer the Pokémon Quiz of TM28 contains Tombstoner.

Q) Can you transfer Pokémon from Generation III games to Generation V games?

A) Sorry, you can't. Because there is no Dual-slot mode in Generation V games. Players will not be able to transfer Pokémon separately.
