Which is it?

I live in North America, so I don't have any first-hand experience with Platinum and I can't clear this up myself. So, how can this area be in the Resort Area or the Battle Zone? Plus, immediately afterwords, the article makes it sound as if it is only the Resort Area. LordArceus 17:33, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Someone F'd up or and of. The Battle Zone is the whole island with the Fight, Survival, and Resort Areas. TTEchidna 18:26, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

...I wasn't wrong, but now I feel dumb for not realizing it was just a typo. Argh, I could have changed that myself :S LordArceus 15:55, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Furniture

Is anybody sure that there's a piano? I don't have it on my list of buyable things. R.A. Hunter B. 03:34, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Some have to be unlocked. *tc26* 03:37, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Unlocked how? And should we mention having two Pokémon busts, or only the one since they're both the same price. I haven't bought either yet though. R.A. Hunter B. 03:42, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
It's on serebii[1] abcboy 08:13, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Yes, but they're actually wrong. I didn't have to get the shelves for Prof. Rowan to visit. I don't even have them yet. And I actually had Dawn visit before I got the little sofa. I think Serebii just put it for who came the day after he bought the item. Also, I can buy both Pokémon Statues, and I only have two Silver Prints. And I had both available from the start. R.A. Hunter B. 01:18, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Not exactly "came the day after." It means that said NPC will enter the Villa immediately after their respective furniture item is purchased, even if there is a different NPC already inside. They also have specific text for this moment. You're right about the info being wrong, though. I also have two Prints and two Statues. ChaudCo 00:27, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Music Box

Does someone want to fix the music box link so that it links to the villa decorations instead of the Mystery Dungeon music box? I don't know enough wikicoding to do it myself. --いぬみみ 19:52, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, that's impossible it already links to the mystery dungeon boxwait maybe...--Pokemonguy1 Pikachu! 05:39, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
If you see any more, just use the {{!}} to put a pipe in. Then it will work like a regular link. — THE TROM — 10:16, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Visitors

The page is marked as incomplete, so I figure we might as well add a section detailing the NPC's who visit, including the way in which they appear and their quotes (there's at least five for each). I've got most of the quotes covered, but somebody else's gonna have to fill in Dawn's. I'll be getting right on this, so watch this space, I guess. chaude~froide 16:01, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

...watching... :P thanks for your efforts. As a non-Pt player I found it most interesting. —darklordtrom 03:43, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
Alright. I'll start writing them down. R.A. Hunter Blade 18:55, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Nice to see positive reception, thanks :D That Battleground theory is interesting, I don't think I've noticed it. I'll check it out, too.
...Hnn, the sections for Lucas and Dawn were consolidated. I'd made 'em separate cuz I'm pretty sure they have different quote sets. And now Lucas has his five quotes... so I put an ugly little "—" to separate the sections. -__-; Probably a bad idea, but I'm just gonna wait this one out. chaude~froide 01:51, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Hm... I still don't know if the theory is correct.... normally they don't leave until I beat somebody at the Battleground, but Byron's staying around... I'll have to wait a few more days. It's only been one, and I think I might have had a battle that ended after 12AM, so that might have done it. R.A. Hunter Blade 22:40, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
I've had Roark stay in my villa for over 2 weeks, and I realized why no one else ever came: I was always in my villa when the day switched. To get a new visitor, make sure to save in a place other than the villa every few days. Conversely, if you like having someone in your house (--_--), then keep saving in the villa and the person will stay (however, they won't change their quote). --RiverAura 23:15, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
Yes, I got that part back in the Hoenn games. The coding of the games only updates in a building after going through a door. I'm never saved inside the villa or Battleground for this reason. I'll be checking Byron tonight, and whoever comes in to visit next. R.A. Hunter Blade 23:20, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Cynthia's House

In the article, it says that "even the region is a secret", so could we take this as a possible hint that she lives in Generation V's region? Because Nintendo would keep that a secret Jake200493 16:16, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
