She used two Hyper Potions to bring her pokes back from the brink of death, I'm practically dancing because thank GOD Kingdra is finally gone, and then I see the PSN next to Kingdra's HP bar disappear.

Then that horrible sound of "Opponent used ITEM!"

*Cries, and gets ready to powerlevel team*My highest is a lvl 37 Typhlosion, with my second being a 33 Zangoose >.>

I countered her Kingdra with my own Kingdra

I'll bet she didn't like Expert Belt-boosted STAB Outrage coming off an Adamant nature ruining her fun xD

EDIT: Sadly, because even Typhlosion can't keep up with how awesome my Scizor is, I had to retire him in favor of Arcanine temporarily while I go breed the shit out of a Cyndaquil so I can make a Superphlosion... Course, since Platinum, I replace every member of my ingame teams with bred and EV'd 'mons. I don't ever have to powerlevel thanks to 1.5x Trade boost, Experience Share plus the bait and switch method. Takes me all of 20 minutes to an hour to get them up to 50ish after EVing, which takes at most a half hour if I'm doing just Special Attack and Speed, or up to 2 and a half if I have to do the harder shit like Attack or *shudder* Special Defense. (Attack is hard because the easiest place to do it is Route 207 in Sinnoh, north of Oreburgh, where you can find wild Machop at levels 5-7... but it shares the grass with wild Geodude, who give Defense, who seem to have an equal or greater encounter rate. Personally, I think the game can tell which one I'm trying for by the Power Item I'm using and gives me the other one to spite me.)

BLAH BLAH BLAH WORDS.

I prefer getting through the main campaign on grit and determination (As well as a copious amount of Revives

), and save the EV'ing for the post-game (aka you jerks :p)

That's why all my decent pokes, including an AWESOME Pikachu-colored Pichu, have been on the bench awaiting EV training while I beat the bajeesus out of everyone else with wimpy strikes >.>

Eh, I didn't want Clair to be That One Boss, so I kinda cheated. For Platinum, I kinda did cruise through the game on my own merit, but I made my team by breeding stuff from Diamond and porting it over, unEV'd. Ergo, everything but my starter was a bitch to use until after Eterna City.

Also, I should totally EV that Pikachu colored Pichu now that I've got my HURR DURR USELESS PIECE OF SHIT MUTANT PICHU. Does the shiny one ever evolve? I know the Notched Ear doesn't, but does the Pikachu colored one?

Revives are a lot more expensive than Freshwaters... Just sayin.

-Edit- What's EV?

EVILNess · 03-18-2010, 07:55 PM

effort values, each poke has a stat associated with it when you fight it in the wild and beating it senseless raises the EV for that stat, which in turn raises the growth of that stat. There is a max EV so you do have to plan it out.

Pikachu-colored Pichu will evolve.

Standing infront of Mewtwo now, taking on Red tomorrosish.
Battle start!
EDIT: he knocked out TyBRosion. Considering catching him with a Friend Ball out of spite.

I got it in the mail yesterday, and I'm taking my time with it. I spent most of the first half hour interacting with my Cyndaquil and giggling like a maniac every time he poked my feet or somesuch.

I wish they hadn't implemented the nature system back in Ruby/Sapphire. When I was 12 and playing Gold for the first time, I was absolutely elated that I caught a Gastly in Sprout Tower. When I catch one ten years later, my first thought is: "Brave Gastly? Hello vendor trash!"

I was kind of surprised at how much stronger Falkner was this time around. I freaked out when he got a critical hit off my Mareep and fainted it. I'm guessing it's a sign of the difficulty to come.

It's fun to invent ways to manipulate the Pokewalker. I was able to get a Kangaskhan ridiculously early in the game by taping it to my dog and then playing fetch with him.

Beat Red a couple of hours ago with a team of 40's-50's. And a level seven Machop. (like I'm gonna teach one of my main team Rock Climb.)

Allow me to share something with you that will cause everyone's mind to simultaneously shut down and proclaim WTF.

I fought a fisherman who had raised a Magikarp to level 65.

Not Gryados. Magikarp.

I don't understand it either. When you guys find it, take a picture of it and share it so I can go 'Yeah that's the guy.'
