Inside the Yellow forest you can capture a Pikachu with some unique abilities. One of those unique techniques might be a move set with Fly, Surf, or even Volt Tackle! So you are encouraged to walk the distance to find those rare electric mice!
i like to bring it to school with me hidden under my shirt, to avoid immanent pummeling of course. i think its a pretty neat little idea.
I wear mine with pride.
I use it every day, and run with it since I ran anyway. Piling up the watts and glad it works so well. Great idea by Nintendo, makings leveling up so much easier.
The Pokewalker is the reason I want HeartGold. My bank account is the reason I don't already.
It's not that great, catching pokemon with it becomes a lot harder.
I think it's pretty cool. No luck finding a special pikachu yet, though.
I always just shook those things.
@jamie, dont bother with the usb adapter if you got dont got windows xp. bought one for my bro's house, when he upgade to vista, the device stopped working 🙁 downloaded an update on nintendo's website and still nothing. nintendo stopped support for it the year because of complaints of speed and relialability. still got it over there, just collects dust.
I don't have wifi at my house, so I stole my girlfriend's unprotected wifi and got the new Route. I'm hoping to catch any Pikachu, but according to Serebii's Pokewalker guide, the number of steps for a flying/surfing Pikachu are ridiculous. Although, the guide could be wrong because I swear I've collected over 7500 watts, and I haven't gotten any new routes since Town Outskirts.
As for the Pokewalker, it's kinda fun.Not really useful for leveling, imo, because you don't get EVs, new moves, or evolution. I use it mostly for catching Pokemon and getting items, but I may try to use it to get happy Pokemon for evolutions. I "cheat" with it most of the time, putting it onto my shoe and tapping my foot, but my mom says doing stuff like tapping or jiggling your foot is supposed to be good for you. I do think the Pokewalker was worth the extra 5USD you pay for the game, but I wonder how long I'll use it for.
The Pokewalker makes portable gaming even more portable. I catch pokemon at work!
For those of you who have a PokéWalker and have been dutifully walking around collecting watts, items, and Pokémon; you can now download a new route called the Yellow Forest via Mystery Gift.
I think I was the only guy at PAX who didn't have one of those damn things.
I met 42 different people one day. While having a PokéWalker on me.

I love the pokéwalker, it has actually gotten me to go walking lol. Only trouble is, can't download yellow forest, lack of WEP wireless internet, need to find a cheap nintendo USB adapter
