One question I frequently get asked is “How do I enter FCs?”.
So I decided to make a video on how to do it.
First, you’ll need a Pal Pad. You’ve probably already got it; if you don’t, you need to explore more..
You get it by going into the basement of a Pokemon Center. Once you go down the stairs, the person will immediately call out to you and drag you over and give you the Pal Pad.
To access it, open your Bag and go to Key Items, then select it from the menu.
To register a Friend Code, select “Register”. You can put anything as the name, so all you need is the Friend Code.
(It looks a little different between Platinum and Diamond/Pearl, but it’s mostly the same)
After you’re entered the name, enter the code and it’ll prompt you if the info is correct.
If a number is wrong, it’ll usually tell you. If you’ve already entered the number, it’ll say so.
If it works, it’ll just accept it.
You can check by going to Friend Roster. It’s like a phone book. Flip around and you can see who you have entered.
You can only enter 32 codes until you’ll have to delete some… it sounds like a lot but it really isn’t..
In order for you to connect with your friend, you MUST give them your own code to enter, otherwise it won’t work.
To find your code, go to (Name)’s Code.
But what if you don’t have it yet?
You must first connect online for the first time, by going to the counter I mention in the video – the one in the middle.
It’ll then give you your code, and you can check it again later by going to what I just mentioned above.
However, you must use this same game and DS to connect the next time, otherwise you won’t be able to go online UNLESS you want to be issued another code.
There is a way around this and that is to transfer your Nintendo WFC Data to a new DS, but that’s another story for another video for another day.
Good luck.

Thanks for watching …
Thanks for watching my video.
Unfortunately, I’m having to turn off comments on a lot of my videos because life has intervened and I just can’t take it anymore.
If you need help, go to a forum (if you want, come to mine. Details are on my channel, there’s a video about it).
Don’t ask me because I do not have the time.
Again, thanks everyone. You mean the world to me. But some things just have to change…
Oh, yeah. Lots of comments removed on this video.
DBs. Go somewhere else.

Nice job, and glad to see you’re helping out people since they don’t know how to do things. I would do so too, but unfortunately, my camera cannot record the lights very well on my DS, so yeah :[ That’s a bummer. Anyways! Great job! 5/5!

Patience is a virtue, but I’m beginning to think grammar should be one as well.
