Pokémon!

by Amplify » Wed Jan 19, 2011 5:49 pm

Come on, we don't even have a Pokémon thread! Some people may be aware but the next gen of Pokémon is being released in North America in March.

Talk about what was your old school Pokémon team, Pokémon you want to trade and offer via Wi-Fi.

Recently, I've started a new game on Diamond, much fun and my team consist of:

Gastly → Haunter → Gengar (Gen I)
Elekid → Electabuzz→ Electivire (Gen IV)
Chatot (Gen IV)
Seel → Dewgong (Gen I)
Trapinch → Vibrava → Flygon (Gen III)
Slugma → Magcargo (Gen II)

Ah, Pocket Monsters. Oh, how I miss you so.

I have played some of Pokemon Black. Same concept, but it does offer some new mechanics, and the story is a bit different.

Sadly, I stopped paying attention after they beat the gyms. I will proudly admit I had all the badges I won from games they had at the local toys-r-us stores. Bitches don't know 'bout my badges.

If you still play Fourth Gen game and you need certain pokémon we can trade. I have all the starters and pretty much all the non-event pokémon. Sadly I restarted playing Pokémon HeartGold after the Worldwide wi-fi Mew and Jirachi event. Fuck event.

Black and White is comming soon!

I don't know who's buying it but I am. :p

The story is set in a "new" world, with no old Pokémon at all. It'll kind of be like when people started with Blu/Red and didn't know what Pokémon will be along the way, exept now internet exist and I can plan my team in advance.

Here's what my team going to be:

Jarooda
Hiyakkii
Kenhorou
Roobushin
Hahakomori
Warubiaru

and depending where in the game I can get Victini, I'll switch it in and off.

DEM POKEMAN!

I actually found my old DS Lite, albeit broken. Still works enough to snag Celebi on Diamond. Decided to preorder Pokemon Black (the US one, since I only played the Japanese one) with some of the money I got for trading in my PS2, at the same time finish it. (and started on Portal 2's preorder)

I played at the local Wizards of the Coast retail store until they closed the retail front. Sadly, I did not collect all the badges, only some, with my awesome gyardos deck.

Even with such damage, the handheld still works 100%. Nintendo, your hardware is excellent, even if the casing isn't.

How badly censored is it?
I remember there was some uproar when the second Gym Leader's design was unveiled because some people thought it was racist. (And considering what kind of trouble Nintendo has had in the past with racism accusations, we can never be too careful.)

Damn, you're farther along than I am (and I've had it since the 17th :( )

Anyone besides me have a Victini? You only have until the 10th to get the Liberty Pass (the required item to get it)!

Volcarona is the evolved form of Larvesta, the Pokémon you get as an Egg from a guy in a house on Route 18.

I still haven't evolved mine, though since I have the National 'Dex now it shouldn't be much of a challenge. (It evolves at level 59.)

You mean Kyurem?

the fire legendary dragon thing 70

Reshiram? (I'm trying to piece together what your team looks like)
Image

gurrdurr (no one will trade w/ me) 72

I'd be happy to trade with you! Just post your friend code and when I get in a position in which I can trade (I only have an original-model DS and it's not compatible with the Wi-Fi in my house), I'll message you on Steam and we can get started.

Not really, I just got lucky and managed to get some extra lucky eggs from the item trader. Plus, traded with my friends for the bonus EXP gain. So, no, I don't think I really have done much grinding. I know I don't have the time to grind. :|

Sawk is rare in White, like Throh is rare in Black.
I have Black, and had to trade with my brother (who has White) to get a Throh.

You need someone with White to trade you Thundurus so you can catch Landorus.

I already did those trades with my brother, but I can go catch two more if you're that desperate.

Time for a brief hijack:
For those of us who want trades, battles or whatever, we need to make a community friend code list.
I'll start with my friend code for Black: 3396 3206 5099
My in-game name is Rachel, if it requires you to enter it.
I can make a separate thread for this if need be.

Chaining? Please explain how that works.

Enjoy raging.

Oh, so that was what chaining is.
I was asking because I have had unusual luck in certain games; I found 2 (or was it 3?) shinies in the wild in HeartGold.

when i was in middle school, in pearl version, i caught a shiny wingull lvl 40, it was all green and stuff and i also caught a shiny raticate in pearl lvl 51. my friend wanted a shiny pokemon so i offered her my raticate (wingull is epic) and she didnt want it because it was male (she wanted female pokemon only) and my wingull was a female, she threatened me to give it to her, or else she would go to my house and cut off my feet. :(

I don't know if I've ever told you guys this story, but I have gone through 2 copies of LeafGreen and Emerald.
My first LeafGreen mysteriously vanished and I had to buy a used copy to replace it; my first Emerald was stolen straight out of my DS. To this day the perpetrator has not been identified.
The reason I brought this up is because the day before my Emerald cartridge was stolen, I caught a shiny female Tentacool and named it Kirameki.

I've caught a shiny Kricketune (chaining), Zangoose (chaining). I have like so many legendaries that are shiny through GTS that are hacked because they are shiny and have moves they should not have... I like my level 100 shiny Giratina with Judgment and level 100 shiny Dialga with mega kick, metronome, shadow force... :)

Every pokémon have the same maximum Effort values points (510) with a maximum of 255 by stat, so in competition you get banned if you use pokémons with more then 510 EVs.

So when I said max evs I meant pokémon with evs like 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def. Not 255 every stats.

Ah. So you're basically cheating.
The only cheats I ever used were the ones to get Darkrai, Shaymin and Arceus without going to an event.
So far I have not been caught; though I did get an error message in the GTS one time that said my Darkrai could not be offered for trade.

IVs can't make THAT much of a difference, yeah? I mean, sure a few extra stat points here and there, but I think for all the hassle it's worth, it'd be outshone by superior team composition/move sets... O:

Also cheating in pokemon has been way lame ever since G/S/C when you couldn't do the amazing missingno glitch from R/B. :P

True, but in Gold/Silver you could clone Pokémon and by extension get infinite legendaries and Master Balls.

I guess I'll get into my Pokemon as well.

IVs can make quite the difference when it comes to competitive battles, namely in that of a speed tie. If you train both your pokemon equally, the person with the higher IV will will the battle most of the time. Yes, you can have bad players with good IV's just lose because of poor judgement, but if your playing against someone competent, its difficult to win unless you have perfected your pokemon. But that is just my opinion.

Speaking of which, the battery in my old DS is finally starting to die after nearly 7 years. Nintendo doesn't make or sell the batteries anymore, but they offered to let a technician look at it. I just printed off the mailing label last night and need to find a box to ship it in; that'll put me out of commission for a few weeks (unless my brother loans me his). Just a heads-up...

Does anyone play Pokemon Online Battle Simulator? It's amazing for lazy people who want to do competitive battles.
