This is my document, I wrote it. I'm not bothering to put much in here
because this FAQ didn't take much time and effort to write. I just think anyone
who steals this is pretty sad. Save the THIEF for Bagon and steal a Dragon Scale.

Q: Can Espeon and Umbreon be female?
A: In order to prevent breeding either of these two for Kanto Pokemon, Espeon
and Umbreon are always male. Their Individual Values and Nature, however, are
random.
Q: I heard that I have to choose which Johto starter to snatch, near the
beginning of the game. Does this mean I can only get one?
A: When you first leave Phenice City, you may only battle one of three trainers,
and each trainer has a Johto starter. However, after clearing the game, you may
start over and choose to battle another of the three trainers, instead.
Q: Can the Johto starters be female, or are they preset to male?
A: They have a 1-in-8 chance of being female.
Q: I didn't snatch a Shadow Pokemon when I had the chance. Did I miss my
opportunity?
A: You will rebattle many trainers that have Shadow Pokemon. If you don't
snatch the Pokemon on the first try, then you'll have another.
Once you've snatched the Shadow Pokemon, future battles with the trainer
will contain a normal Pokemon in the snatched Pokemon's place.
Q: Does this mean if a Shadow Pokemon is male, I can wait until later, and catch
it as a female?
A: Pokemon's gender and statistical information is set upon the first battle,
and will remain for all following battle against that trainer.
Q: Can I get more of the TMs from the colosseums by battling more than four
times in the same time?
A: No. You can only get each TM once, except for the ones that you buy. The only
prize you will receive after four colosseum battles is money.

7. Helpful Hints (these are not in any specific order)
The order of Johto starters is determined by the exit you choose to leave
Phenac city. The colors of the Mystery troops' outfits correspond to the
type of the starter they use.
Eagun's e-mail is cut off. He is trying to tell you that he has a Master Ball
to give you the next time you are in Agate village.
You can deposit Pokémon in the computer to fully heal them when there is no
Pokémon center machine.
Croconaw, Quagsire, Remoraid, Quilfish, Mantine, Yanma, Suicune, Ariados,
Ledian, Forretress, Heracross, and Shuckle are all Bug/Water types, and are
thus caught with less difficulty if a Net Ball is used on them.
Using the Master Ball on Tyranitar screws up the Scizor's Baton Pass Strategy.
Bringing a Pokémon that knows Sunny Day (best to use is Meganium) to Ein's lab
can help, as most of the trainers use Rain Dance + Thunder strategies.
Purify as many Pokémon early on, in Duel Square (when the trainers are levels
27-32) because later on in the game it becomes harder to purify the weaker
guys because they keep dying.
Do not save money or spend it on vitamins (ex: HP Up) Sell the vitamins that are
found in the treasure chest and use the money to buy healing items. Chances are
if you save money you'll lose at least once due to lack of healing items, and
your money will be halved.
Don't use Duking's plusle. He's cute, which is about all.
Use Hyper Mode to your advantage. Only Call if you need to heal them or if
purifying the Pokémon is your prime concern.
Using traded Pokémon is not allowed in Mt. Battle if you're going for Ho-oh,
but what is allowed is trading to Ruby/Sapphire to EV train, raise to equal
levels, etc.
Kill the Shadow Pokémon in Realgem Tower Colosseum (except tyranitar, if you
use the Master Ball on it) and come back to snag them once you raise your guys
to be stronger. (Level 60+) It makes it much easier to snag them.
