Pal Park HGSS · Kanto Area
Pal Park is in Fuchsia City, where the old Kanto Safari Zone used to be; after the warden closed the Safari Zone, his son opened Pal Park in its place. It is where you bring Pokémon over from the Game Boy Advance games Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed and LeafGreen, and then catch them again in a Catching Show. You need the National Pokédex to use it.

Tips
- Insert a Generation III cartridge in the DS’s GBA slot and use Migrate from the title menu to send six Pokémon at a time.
- HeartGold and SoulSilver drop Diamond and Pearl’s once-a-day limit, so you can migrate again as soon as you have caught the last six.
- Pokémon that know an HM move can’t migrate, and migrated Pokémon can never go back to a Generation III game.
- In the Catching Show you get six Park Balls that never miss, and your score comes from the Pokémon caught, the time taken and type variety.
- The Park Ranger gives you a Berry after each completed show, and higher scores earn rarer Berries.
- Two of the park’s five areas are on water, so bring a Pokémon that can use Surf.
