Please help, I accidentally washed my Pokéwalker and now it won't turn on...I know rice is supposed to work to help drain the water but I don't have any and I tried googling what I should do but everyone just responds with "Who has those?" Or "Pokéwalker is a waste of money" (even though it came with the game).

I know many don't like it but I still love packing it around and seeing Rain my Typhlosion.

Should I just leave it be for a day or two or is there something else I can do to revive it?
 
You washed an electronic. It's highly likely that it's completely dead, though there may be a chance that it'll turn back on. Leave it for a couple days, if it doesn't turn on, then it won't.
 
Alright, first if you are only worried about your typlosion than know that you can get him back, skip to the smiley face if you only care about fixing it. At the pokewalker connection screen, hit UP SELECT and R at the same time. The pokemon will be sent back to the pc , safe and sound, don't worry you're precious typlosion is safe. :). If you only care about fixing it, I advise getting a q-tip or something cotton to try to drain it, but rice is a good idea. Maybe only the battery is fried, try getting a new battery, that may also fix it. I wish you good luck with fixing it!

out of all the times I forgot to check my pockets I'll take your advice and let it sit for a couple of days :(, thanks for helping out.

Funny thing is I no longer have a file on SoulSilver, it's my baby brothers game now but the Q-tip sounds like a great idea! Thanks :)

Thanks both of you :)
