Just got back/Spring Break status now. A friend of mine let me borrow their DS until the 3DS comes out. <3
On top of that, first thing I did was walk into Pinwheel Forest and find an Illigant. 2gud. Gonna go beat Skyla w/it now.

Pansexual actually made me lol Fuel.

My 3 favourite nicknames are my Swoobat (Dr Love) my Elgyem (Andromeda) and my Co***rigus (Cursed). Probably the hardest Pokemon to think of a nickname for was Haxorus, because seriously that's the most perfect Pokemon name ever, so I just ended up calling it Hacker. Not as good as Haxorus but hell I want to nickname all my Pokes.

Nice call on the name there GF

And damn it man, this game is so ****ing long. I swear it was never this long in DP. I could beat it in one or two days if I wanted. This I can tell is gonna take me a week.

And the Huin gym (yeah, I prefer Huin over Castelia get @ me) is too easy. I'm just tearing through everything with my Pansage, Woobat, and partly my Dewott

hell yeah. you guys rock.

wow. i traded to this one girl a petilil early game, and after i beat the elite four she challenged me with only a level 65 lilligant. so good. it defeated my level 42 lilligant (though i couldve won if it wasnt for confusion hax!!!! :D)

my current lilligant has hp ghost. not great competitively, but good for the in-game elite 4!

i still want a modest hp ice lilli.

Got White yesterday and I'm at the Cold Storage. I'm gonna find some ice.

I usually don't raise a team of 6 since you usually need HMs frequently, but that doesn't seem to be the case with this game :D

*phew* I've spent the last two days trying to get a decent Thundurus, and it's been holding up my journey, but I finally settled for a Mild one with 31 Sp. Att. and a pretty high Speed IV. Its HP IV is poopy, but oh well.

I finally made it to Victory Road with my team of Samurott, Unfezant, Throh, Lilligant, Zoroark, and Pansear (yes, still a Pansear), all around level 45. But! I'm making a detour to collect some Synchronizers for the other legendaries first!

The E4 in this game was the hardest E4 in any game, hands down.

Why haven't you evolved it yet?

I'm waiting until I've beaten the game before I hunt for legendaries. I prefer to do it that way so I don't feel rushed and I have all the "tools" I need. It also gives me something to do once the main adventure is over. It can become a little ridiculous though. I haven't caught a single legendary in my soul silver game. That game has way too many legendaries in it.

I've just picked up my 8th badge. I don't want this game to end. :(

Psy's Unfeazant uses detect: It protected itself
Foe Mienshao(4hp left) uses jump kick, Mienshao missed, it kept going and crashed. Mienshao fainted.
and that's how I beat the last member in the elite four.

lol

Yeah Chill, there is a ton of post-game content. Don't worry about it. I'm up to around Village Bridge now. Looking forward to rebattling the E4.

Finally got my Scraggy. I now finally got to Nimbasa City and my team atm is:

Sandile lvl 19(DEALWITHIT) - I got this one because my team needed a good electric resist for the next gym >_>
Dewott lvl 21 (WOTTER)
Woobat lvl 22 (FRUITY)
Simisear lvl 22 (PANSEXUAL)
Timburr lvl 22 (LORAX)
Scraggy lvl 17 (SCRAPPER)

Got rid of Patrat because by the time I got to the second gym, that thing became a piece of **** with its terrible defense while Timburr has surprisingly become the powerhouse of my team with its good defenses and great attack

And I wish I could get my Swoobat (if that's what it's called I don't remember all these names yet DX) already. I really hate the happiness system of having to get full happiness to just evolve

And the level at which some of these pokemon evolve is insane. I don't have the patience to reach lvl 39 to just evolve my Zuruggu into Zuruzukin

EDIT: And N's battle music is absolutely amazing btw

I dunno, I just want to see how far I can get with my little Pansear the way it is. It's getting to about that time though.

And I'm with you about not wanting the game to end; pre-E4 was epic, so I haven't even ventured into Victory Road. And I haven't even had the game for a week yet. :glare:

I'm currently battling Cobalion, and he's being a punk.

Yeah as Chill said, evolve that Pansear. It quits learning moves at lvl 43, so evolving is good from then on.

Unless you are big into aesthetics. Then keep it as Pansear. Simisear is so awkwardly terrible that I even considered not evolving it myself.

Blegh, this game is somehow retardedly haxxed hard. I'm serious I bought about 20 Hyper Potions before I fought Elese and I swear I used 18 of those, which wouldn't have been an issue if she didn't have 2 ****ing Emongas on her team because Sand Tomb doesn't work on Flying Types :mad:

Yeah, shes one of the harder leaders.
All the important fights have some good level of difficulty if you didn't over-level.

So far, I think Clay was my hardest gym. His Excadrill could've posted a huge threat, but it stopped using it's moves during the sweep which let me counter it O_O

I used to not even like Pansear, but it started growing on me after using it. By the way, Acrobatics is awesome. And call me slow, but I just realized all the elemental monkeys' cries are similar.

My hardest Gym Battle was against Lenora. She's the only one that I managed to lose against (and more than once at that). Stupid Take Down and Retaliate. Everyone else was pretty easy because I had a type advantage with one of my Pokemon for most of them except Elesa and Iris.

So has anybody found a new appreciation for a Pokemon that they didn't have before since using it in a playthrough? I really like Pan/Simisear and Lilligant now.

"K, I'm in Twist Mountain. Cryogonal has a 1% encounter rate in Autumn. Time to buckle down and look for it!"

*6 encounters later*

*Cryogonal's cry*

"..........."

"8DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD"


Needless to say, I love Cryogonal LOL

I've gotten a new appreciation for the Roobushin line. Timburr is a ****ing tank. I swear everytime he Wake Up Slaps someone it's hitting somewhere in the 50-90% range on pokemon that are like 5 levels above the thing. I can't wait to evolve it into Gurdurr to cause even more destruction.

EDIT:

And no offense, but Cryogonal is really stupid looking. I swear that thing looks like it belongs in another game imo

Cryogonal has become my favorite Pokemon of all because of how it looks (DEMONIC SNOWFLAKE. WITH A MUSTACHE.) and its status as a glass "cannon."

Catching a Cryogonal was my number one priority when I first turned on Black. I'm glad it didn't take me long to find it.
