If you have played 5th gen before you know about the transfer where they come but don't return answered Feb 16, 2015 by Nothing selected Feb 16, 2015 by kenneth starlight Thanks!

It will not work because the coding for Oshawott is not in the coding for SoulSilver, because Oshawatt was designed after SS was created.
