How To Win Slot Machines In Pokemon Silver

So, play a mixture of games with different RTPs and you’ll soon discover the best way to win at slots, based on your personal gaming style and preferences. Understand Different Types of Slot Machines. The next thing you can do is do your own research about the best online slots according to their types. If you want to win big at the slots you go to the guy that says 'games can be scary' or something like that. Then go three machines above him you should get a jackpot almost every time. If that does'nt work try the machine right below that. That machine is'nt quite as lucky but it's at least second best.

The Game Corner has been a staple of every Pokemon game up to Generation IV. Here you can buy coins, test your luck, and win fabulous prizes, including new Pokemon and TMs you won't get anywhere else.

The Basics
You'll need a Coin Case, to be found in the Goldenrod Underground. At the main desk in Game Corner (in the top left corner) you can buy 50 coins for 1000P or 500 for 10,000P.

Slots and Games
Gold and Silver have two games now. The first is the basic slots game from Red and Blue: insert however many coins you want (1, 2 or 3, which add more rows on the slots where you can win prizes) and try and line up the same picture.

Slots Prize Table:
Three 7's: 300 coins
Three Poké Balls: 50 coins
Three Staryu: 15 coins
Three Squirtle: 10 coins
Three Pikachu: 8 coins
Three cherries: 6 coins

Getting one or two 7's seems to affect the game a little; you might see other Pokemon pop up from time to time to tip the balance of the game if you manage to pull off a 7...

The second game is Card Flip. New to the franchise, Card Flip allows you to pick one or several cards, place a bet on the winning card, and try to win. The less cards you pick the higher the yielding prize.

TMs

TM14 Blizzard: 5500 Coins
An frosty blast of Ice-type damage is what you'll get using Blizzard. It's useful against the eighth Gym Leader and the Champion though it has low accuracy so watch out. Blizzard has a modest chance of freezing the opponent.

TM25 Thunder: 5500 Coins
This peal of electrical power will shock the living daylights out of certain Pokemon on Chuck and Pryce's respective teams. To add to the fear factor, Thunder will never miss when it's raining. It also might paralyze the target.

TM38 Fire Blast: 5500 Coins
A decently accurate and extremely powerful Fire-type move, Fire Blast will be immensively helpful in your fights against Jasmine and Pryce. It has a good shot at burning the target.

#023 Ekans: 700 Coins (Gold)
This is the only way to get Ekans in Gold. Pick it up if you like Poison-types or need to complete your Pokedex, but don't expect it to do very much hard work.

#027 Sandshrew: 700 Coins (Silver)
Like Ekans in Gold, Sandshrew can't be caught in the wild in Silver. Sandslash has a bit of muscle behind it so this may be a worthy buy if you like Ground-type Pokemon.

#063 Abra: 200 Coins
Makes catching this little Psychic-type a heck of a lot easier now that he can't escape with Teleport. Evolves into a Pokemon with one of the best Special Attack stats in the game (albeit reaching his last form via trade). If you do use him, your fights against Morty and Chuck might become a lot easier.

#147 Dratini: 2100 Coins.
Extremely rare and learns a myriad of great attacks, Dratini would make a smooth addition to any team. It resists four of the most common Special types and will be a great asset to you later on in the game.

Prizes (Celadon)

TMs

TM32 Double Team: 1500 Coins
Boosts evasion to make the foe's moves miss. This works great both ingame and competitively, though watch out: you may lose all your friends if you try it on them.

TM29 Psychic: 3500 Coins
The most powerful Psychic-type move in the game. It has raw strength behind it and is great for dealing with pesky Fighting-type and Poison-type Pokemon like Hitmontop and Gengar.

TM15 Hyper Beam: 7500 Coins
A very powerful Normal-type move. 150 Base Power, but forces you to recharge after using. Attach it to a fast Pokemon with great Attack power (like Entei) and go hog wild.

Pokemon

#122 Mr. Mime: 3333 Coins
An obscure Psychic-type Pokemon that probably won't be much use to you this late in the game. It has cool Special Attack and Special Defense, but isn't that memorable otherwise. I guess it gets both screen moves which is kind of neat.

#133 Eevee: 6666 Coins
Bill will give you an Eevee anyways, but if you're too lazy to breed that one you can get a healthy Eevee for an easy 6666 coins in Celadon City. Remember that it can evolve into five Pokemon now: the types it can take on include Fire, Water, Electric, Psychic and Dark.

#139 Porygon: 9999 Coins
Exclusive to the slots, Porygon is very expensive. If you're looking for a strong battler, it's not going to be Porygon, though it has a fun novelty to it you could try and make work with its neat movepool. Get the Upgrade though from Silph Co. and you can have some interesting battles using Porygon2.

Update (10:00 PM January 26, 2017): We’ve updated the guide to include new details specific to Pokémon Crystal – specifically, the Odd Egg.

How To Win Slot Machines In Pokemon Silver

The Pokémon franchise has developed greatly in regards to how the game works in general. Many current Shiny breeders will be playing a copy ofPokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal (GSC) ready to grab their Destiny Knots and Everstones so they can breed the best Shiny possible. Little do they know what awaits them. A myriad of changes has come to the franchise since these games were released. This guide will serve to navigate the old yet new waters of Shiny/breeding mechanics for generation two’s games.

Many breeders are familiar with IVs (Individual Values.) It is a 0-31 number assigned to each stat to give Pokémon individuality. Well, IVs did not exist until generation three. In generation two, there were instead DVs (Deter Values.) They work effectively the same way as IVs, except the numbers range from 0-15 instead. This will be important to know for anyone wanting to breed for shinies later on.

Many mechanics that breeders rely on to make the process as easy as possible simply have not been added yet as of these games. Destiny Knot’s functionality is gone as well as Everstone’s since natures did not exist yet. Abilities also did not exist, so there are two layers of the breeding process that a breeder will no longer have to consider in GSC versions. Consequently there is no Flame Body Ability to make Eggs hatch faster.

For Shiny hunters, there is no Shiny Charm. The Masuda Method also does not work, although trading locally for a foreign Pokémon would be a major hassle even if it did. There is also no kind of DexNav/SOS chaining to rely on. If you are unfamiliar with any of these mechanics, do not worry as they do not exist in these older games!

So with all of these helpful shiny-hunting mechanics gone, it may seem like hunting for Shiny Pokémon will be an incredibly difficult task. That is because there is no way to improve Shiny odds in the wild. But many will find that breeding for Shiny Pokémon is more effective than one might think. In generation two, whether a Pokémon was Shiny or not was actually calculated by DVs. What does this mean? If a parent is Shiny, then the odds of their child being Shiny are greatly increased. Shiny odds will increase from the base chance of 1/8192 to an insanely high rate of 1/64!

Luckily, all GSCplayers will encounter a certain shiny Gyarados at some point in the story. Catch it, and breeders will possess a wonderful breeding parent to get things started. Make sure that you catch a male or you will be struggling to get a shiny of a different species later on! But breeding for a Shiny that can’t breed with Gyarados will be challenging.

Pokemon Gold Slot Machine

Once you obtain your male Shiny Gyarados from the Lake of Rage, you will be ready to breed for Shinies. But how will you know if the shiny Pokémon that you want is breedable with Gyarados? You must know about Egg groups for this. Check out this list of every Pokémon’s Egg group. Note that Gyarados is in the Egg groups Water 2 and Dragon. Any Pokémon in these two groups can be immediately bred with Shiny Gyarados. If the Shiny you want is not in these groups, things become tricky. You will have to chain Shiny breed for the Pokémon that you want.

For example, let’s say that I want a Shiny Totodile. Its Egg groups are Monster and Water 1. While Gyarados will not work as a parent, maybe breeding for another Shiny parent will work. Charmander is a part of the Dragon and Monster groups. Dragon makes it compatible with Gyarados, and Monster makes it compatible with Totodile. So use Gyarados to breed a Shiny Charmander, and then Charmander with Totodile. This method is more time consuming, but will still be your best chance unless you happen to have a Shiny Ditto. If only there was an easy way to get one…

One interesting fact about Ditto is that in the first generation, Ditto copied the DVs or the opposing Pokémon if it uses Transform twice in a row. Why is this useful? If set up properly , you can effectively make a Ditto shiny when you catch it. The catch is that you will need a second 3DS with a Virtual Console edition of PokémonRed, Blue, or Yellow Version. A friend with a 3DS would be the easiest way to accomplish this, although owning two of them works just as well.

In generation 1, Gyarados learns Mimic through TM. If you transfer your Shiny Gyarados to a Generation 1 game and teach it Mimic, you can essentially get free Shiny Dittos. But the setup is key to this strategy. Your Gyarados should know Mimic and all other moves should have 0 PP remaining. Go to where Ditto can be found, and start the battle. Immediately use Mimic to copy Ditto’s Transform. Ditto will now transform into Gyarados. Wait another turn and let Ditto use transform a second time. Once it has transformed twice, it is now effectively a Shiny! Transfer it to your generation two game and awe at the glistening blue Ditto. You now have a parent that can get you any Shiny that you want (minus the obvious non-breedables such as Lugia and Mewtwo.) Since the Ditto is owned by a different trainer, Eggs will hatch faster as well! Once you transfer your Gyarados back, it will retain its Shiny majesty as well.

Like many other Pokémon games, the 3DS Virtual Console release of Pokémon Crystal has gift Pokémon. A new gift is the Odd Egg, which is given to you by the Daycare Man. The Egg hatches into one of seven different Baby Pokémon introduced in Generation 2: Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue, Magby, Elekid, and Smoochum. In addition to being able to hatch one of these Pokémon, they also all come with the special move Dizzy Punch.

One of the notable aspects of the Odd Egg is that the hatched Pokémon has a higher chance to be Shiny, adding up to a 14% Shiny rate! Non-Shiny hatches from the Odd Egg will have 0 IVs (Individual Values). Below are the probabilities for each species and if they can be Shiny.

PokemonChance (Regular)Chance (Shiny)
Pichu8%1%
Cleffa16%3%
Igglybuff16%3%
Tyrogue10%1%
Smoochum14%2%
Elekid12%2%
Magby10%2%

You can also evolve what you hatch and use it to breed with other Pokémon species, increasing the Shiny chance for the offspring. With each of these Baby Pokémon evolving into Pokémon within different Egg groups, it would be great to get them all on one file!

Thanks to a handy glitch, you can do just that! One of the biggest glitches in Pokémon Crystal is the Duplication or Duplicate Glitch. This glitch lets you clone Pokémon or Eggs within your PC boxes.

To perform this glitch, you need to place a Pokémon or Egg in a box, change your box, and then save and turn off the power right as the word ‘power’ begins to appear. (For Pokémon Gold and Silver you turn off the power slightly earlier.) The timing is tricky but if done right you will have the deposited Pokémon in your box and party at the same time!

With this glitch in mind you can continue cloning the Egg and hatching it to get all the options as Shiny Pokémon to breed. Before you begin this glitch, you need to save the game before getting the Odd Egg.

As stated, each Baby Pokémon evolves into something within a different Egg group. Below is the list of Baby Pokémon final evolutions and their egg groups.

Raichu: Field and Fairy
Clefable: Fairy
Wigglytuff: Fairy
Hitmonchan/Hitmonlee: Human-Like
Electabuzz: Human-Like
Magmar: Human-Like
Jynx: Human-Like

While these groups do overlap, they still allow you more access to breeding Shiny Pokémon easier, as the Odd Egg is the best way to get Shiny Pokémon outside of the Red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage. The Jynx line however are always female and cannot be used for breeding different species of Shiny Pokémon.

While there is no way to effectively farm Shinies in the wild, breeding for them in Generation 2 is actually even more effective than the Masuda Method has ever been. Get your male Shiny Gyarados, and let it be an amazing breeding parent. If you have the resources, the Ditto strategy allows you to get an even better parent than Shiny Gyarados. And if playing Crystal, you can have an additional seven Shiny parents, spanning three additional Egg Groups to those Gyarados is within. Keep these things in mind when wanting a Shiny, and you will have an incredibly effective method for obtaining them.
