How to Get a Shieldon in Pokemon HeartGold

The Pokemon franchise was first introduced in Japan in 1996 and has grown to include video games, television shows, trading cards, action figures and movies. Each new Pokemon game offers new Pokemon to collect and new features for play. Because some Pokemon are only available in certain games, you may want to trade those Pokemon between the games so you can use them in other games. For instance, the Shieldon is only availble in "Pearl" and "Platinum." so you would need to capture it there before trading it to a game such as "HeartGold."
