Talk:Cacophony (Ability)

What if?

What would happen if a Pokémon in GenIII was hacked to have Cacophony, and was then Pal Parked to GenIV, where it doesn't exist? --隼也 17:51, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Maybe it wouldn't be allowed to be migrated to Generation IV if it has the ability. Or it could be automatically changed to Soundproof... That's my guess. - _s.Combusken 17:54, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

...Anyone else think this could be a Beta-form of Soundproof? Takoto タコト| サソデイ = 愛 18:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Sounds like it to me. Or they intended to use it and dropped it at the last minute. After all, Air Lock and Cloud Nine perform the same function. ~$aturn¥oshi ^{THE VOICES} 19:36, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Should we add it to the R&S-Beta page then? :\ I mean, it really seems like it... Takoto タコト| サソデイ = 愛 19:41, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I think it should be added. As being a part of a game that is not utilized in the final version, it sounds pretty beta to me. ~$aturn¥oshi ^{THE VOICES} 19:44, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

You know, I think maybe Whismur had Soundproof, and then its evolved forms had Cacophony, but they figured "well why the heck bother?" and dumped Cacophony. TTEchidna 01:28, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Migrating

I've been doing some tests and I've got an idea of what happens if someone hacks a Pokémon to have Cacophony and tries to migrate it to Gen IV. In Gen III a hacked Pokémon recovers its normal ability when transfered to another game, so I think it's the same if you transfer them to Gen IV as Cacophony doesn't exist. hfc2X 17:35, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Wait a minute...

What are GenIV moves doing in that table...? Θρtιmαtum_Talk 08:55, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I think the same. hfc2X 18:26, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
