Pokémon Dream Radar Discussion Thread [Read First Post]

[Mudster]

I wonder if due to the whole "dream" thing, that the pokémon you capture in this game are uploaded to your dream world account and caught in dreamworld. Maybe it is by direct transfer, but has this actually been confirmed yet?

Nope, hasn't been confirmed. But pretty sure it'll be direct transfer.
I don't see any purpose of having it uploaded online, then you have to download it again.

This is how I see it: Dream Radar is a 3DS app. If you have BW2 inserted on your 3DS, the game just will access your 3DS memory and transfer the data directly to your game.

Seems more likely the app will access an inserted BW2 cartridge.
But yeah, probably a direct connection regardless. Otherwise they probably would have said that it goes to the dreamworld then your game

[Bardische]

That would just be time consuming if we had to shove it back into the Dreamworld. I mean, we could have just gotten the same pokemon from the Dreamworld if they were made available there. I agree with the direct transfer method.

[Mudster]

Just thought it interesting how they might do it. And just because its time consuming, don't rule it out. Up until now there is still no easy way of transferring your hard earned guys from one game to another in one easy step. I really want that in the new games.

So if the direct transfer is confirmed, would this make BW2 the first DS games to be '3DS enhanced'? Obviously quite a few are already DSi enhanced.

Well I guess it is finally time to upgrade to the 3DS. My DS Lite has been handy but seems I will finally have a reason to. I really hope there aren't limiting factors to this, the idea of just going to a new place pulling out the 3DS and finding random pokemon seems like a very cool concept. I am thinking along the lines of Monster Rancher a la the CD insert function, does anyone remember what I am speaking about?

[Torpoleon]

Pokémon Dream Radar looks pretty fun and I like the idea of transferring the Pokémon over to B2W2. I do wonder what others will be in the game. At least it costs very little money.

Did anyone catch the dream radar footage on smash this morning? I forgot to watch it, but I heard that it showed them catching a kami.

The only footage I saw was in the corner of the screen and it was tiny, but then again I tuned in late.

[GoldCyndaquil]

I may get a 3DS for this. The concept is....interesting in itself. Maybe we'll be able to catch starters from other regions with the Dream Radar, finally us Americans can get access to starters with their DW abilities.

[charizarddude]

Anyone think that if the pokemon in this game have DW abilities, then we could have Unova pokemon with DW abilities? Because it's already confirmed Unova pokemon will be in the game (Kami Trio), and it seems likely that pokemon from this game will have DW abilities. (for Arceus' sake, the name's Dream Radar!) And if we can get Unova starters with DW abilities...Contrary Serperior!

Ah, I love wishing for unlikely things to happen.

[kemal07]

I know it sounds awesome for most... and that it includes the 3 new forms of the Kami Trio... but there is something that has me not quite into Poke Dream Radar yet... : /

[Dragrath]

I think it could be a way for us to get Dream World abilities on Unova Pokemon which is currently impossible due to the fact that most lack sprites for the entree forest. At least I hope that is...

At least you realize it is unlikely... I think we will either have to wait a long while for that probably from an event...

[Psychic Politoed]

I think this would be the perfect way to release another Zorua.

And I'm kind of hoping. I don't want to relocate my last Celebi. Yeah, I could breed Zorua/Zoroark, I know, but I have this thing were I have to do every event I can.

[Victini is cool]

So the pokemon dream radar will cost money?

[R_N]

So the pokemon dream radar will cost money?

300 yen, so anywhere from $3 to $5 when it comes here

I don't think it's that unlikely, personally. I was just thinking this...

This is called the Dream Radar, right? I feel like the fact that this has anything to do with dreams means that it has a connection to the Dream World. I think the Dream Radar could be a way of getting the 5th Gen Pokemon with hidden abilities.

[32er]

Yeah maybe the DR pokes you catch have their DW abilities? (for those that have DW ablilites)
Finally, Chandelure with shadow tag!

Yeah, some friends of mine had Monster Rancher, but I never played the series. The CD's were used to generate unique random number seeds. I'm not sure how that would translate to a camera.

I'm hoping that a lot of work gets put into this. Would be cool if the Pokemon were able to hide behind objects.
