Black Market Guide

[EliOceans]

Okay, now this is strange. I only have around 53 Emblems, and I see a Shiny Gray Egg.

Then again, it may be because the Black Market doesn't change right away from another file, and I have around 140 on that one.

[Mel Mel]

^Wait. That's strange. I've never heard of that before. :/
I think I'll research that.

You can be playing a file with very few emblems, but still see rare items if a file that exists on the same memory card has a lot of emblems. Well I think thats true Eli.

I think it's just because the refreshing of the Black Market lags a while.

helped alot THX

Odd. I remember seeing Maria's theme in the black market before I got all the emblems. I don't have another file on the memory card with more on it, but my brother's card may have been in slot 2.

Thanks for all the positive comments everyone! I think it's time I'm done with this research. Someday I may get back to it...

Cool list, it's very helpful. I was just wondering have you eever figured out how long it takes for the black market to update. It's so annoying having to wait forever. I have about 109 emblems and the Shiny Blue Egg still hasn't showed up along with some of the other shiny eggs. Do you have to play the game for house to get the black market to update? It's jsut frustrating because I wanted to buy another Shiny White Egg but it's never at the black market.

[ShadriaFan]

^yes, the black market changes/updates everytime you complete a level.

[Mel Mel]

It's supposedly 15 minutes.

[~Amy~]

Oh... okay cool. Thank you. ^_^

[CustardChao]

for the themes you can also get the secretary theme by going clockwise through the themes until you either hear a ding or something or it just appears.

[Mel Mel]

^ True, but it doesn't have anything to do with the Black Market. ;)

[piplup302]

Just what i needed!

[Zacmac74]

On my new file I had a shiny sky blue egg with only 63 emblems O.o

[skrillexnmau5]

Thank you for this, i've always been curious about this topic.

[arlock]

So I had a couple questions:
What are the specific emblem levels for the knit hats?
What is the best way to get the black market to refresh its stock?

any help would be quite welcome :)

[Mel Mel]

What are the specific emblem levels for the knit hats?

I'm not sure. X3

What is the best way to get the black market to refresh its stock?

Wait 15 minutes. Play a few levels, do Chao Race/Karate. Earn some emblems. Anything to pass 15 minutes.

[Mel Mel]

Ahaha! No problem!

Knowing is half the battle!

a simple way to think about it: shiny eggs cost ten times MORE than their non-shiny counterparts.

I can't believe this is on the Main site! I'd like to thank everyone who's helped me nearly complete this guide! Especially Crazo!
I'm too lazy to find out the rest of the info, but if you know it, feel free to post it!
