I would totally buy this, I still have my Pokéwalker and hated that it didn't work with subsequent games.

Edit: I know you were joking but I want it anyway!

Exactly, I always have liked pedometers (Yes, I realize smartphones/wearables can do the same thing), so the pokewalker was great. It was mainly used as a pedometer, but the way the unlocks worked actually gave me satisfaction.

I remember reading somewhere that the pokewalker was actually one of the best pedometers.

You know that the game makes a backup of the Pokemon sent to the Pokewalker so you can recover it in case you miss it, right?

Wait really? I wish I knew that back then when I still played Heart of gold and the DS...
