[Terywj [태리]]

Mareep - Level 10
Quilava - Level 16

Ready to own Falkner.

[UltiMario]

Make sure to get that to a high-leveled Ampharos.

It'll be invaluable against Lance.

 

[Mewter]

The Pokeathlon is beautiful stuff. I still placed fourth in it, though.

Also, well-balanced team =/= fun. Does anyone else think the trainers have critical hit triphax this time around?

Gotta Cerulean beat the gym now. Fun it will be.

@Terywj: Good luck!
@Ultimario: Ho-Oh's also useful.

Just knocking out Aerodactyl and Gyarados is quite a job, I must say.

[Sir Bedevere]

No, I was really asking if I can get a Weavile. I traded a Sneasel over from Pearl. I can take a pic if you want me to.

Oh, in that case I'm not sure. I know you couldn't evolve things in older gens until you had the right Pokedex (my Golbat in LG never evolved into a Crobat :/), so I don't think even trading in the necessary item will allow you to evolve it.

But Weavile sucks.

 

[Moozle]

High level Octillery > Lance

 

[Charmander]

Wasted luck and effort.
I got a shiny Stantler at the beginning of the game.
I traded a CRAPLOAD of EV deleting berries.
Used them ALL till Stantler had zero EVs in all stats.
Found my SID.
And have NO idea how to get shinies with it.

 

[Tacel]

My team so far:
Nidoran M - Level 6
Kaepora (Hoothoot) - Level 10
Furray (Sentret) - Level 10
Gale (Pidgey) - Level 10
Bzrt (Beedrill) - Level 10
Fiyah (Cyndaquil) - Level 11

Is it about time that I leave Cherrygrove City?

 

[Terywj [태리]]

My team:

Mareep - Level 14
Quilava - Level 19

And I'm already out of Violet.

-Terywj

 

[UltiMario]

-Terywj

And helping against Charizard....

And Crippling his 3 dragonites....


Yeah....

 

[Tacel]

And I'm already out of Violet.

AGH!
*Plays furiously*

 

[Terywj [태리]]

And helping against Charizard....

And Crippling his 3 dragonites....


Yeah....

You don't get it. That was my point.

-Terywj

 

[Charmander]

AGH!
*Plays furiously*

I am ahead of you all
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA
im already in kanto

 

[UltiMario]

There are people that have already beaten the game you know, Kanto included.

lol

 

[supermarth64]

Ok so I'm going to the 4th gym and my team looks like this:

Quilava, Rattata, Gastly, Spearow, Geodude (all level 19), Furret (HM slave, level 16), Kangaskhan in Pokewalker (level 14 or 15).

I found 2 Staryus on my Pokewalker. One Quiet Illuminate, one Impish Natural Cure. Which one should I use in-game or should I use Chinchou instead?

 

[UltiMario]

They both can Boltbeam and Surf so it doesn't matter in the end.

 

[Kole]

Loving it.

My team right now:

Feraligatr Lv. 30
Flaaffy Lv. 29
Haunter Lv. 28
Growlithe Lv. 28
Gloom Lv. 27

 

[Firus]

I'm a little disappointed, I only got 9098 steps working 9-5 today.

(At least it's over 9000.)

Headed on to Mahogany Gym. Jasmine was hard the first time I faced her, then I levelled Croconaw and evolved him, used him against Steelix (as opposed to my own Steelix) and won in 3 hits.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

How necessary is Waterfall? Because if not very then I'll be using Starmie > Poliwrath.

-Terywj

 

[Moozle]

I'd pick the one with natural cure since I have been getting status haxed so bad lately.

 

[Tacel]

What level pokémon does Faulkner have?

 

[Steel]

just battled through the lighthouse and team looks like this thus far:

pidgeotto 26
kadabra 26
vulpix 26
eevee 27
croconaw 28

probably going to have my eevee evolve into an umbreon

 

[Terywj [태리]]

What level pokémon does Faulkner have?

Pidgey - Level 9
Pidgeotto - Level 14

-Terywj

 

[Steel]

pidgeotto is 13

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Just kidding, then.

[Deleted member]

Finally beat Lance last night. He was surprisingly tough.

Thankfully, Choice Scarf (thank you mom!) Vaporeon outspeeds his Dragonites, so i can Ice Beam them. Ampharos took care of his remaining Pokes. (though, it took me 3 tries as Ice Beam never did OHKO those Drags).

After i get some more training done, i'll be heading to Kanto. Current team is:
Typhlosion (Level 47)
Vaporeon (Level 43)
Ampharos (Level 44)
Heracross (Level 42)
Pidgeot (Level 42)
Vileplume (Level 41) Probably going to replace with something else...

 

[Sir Bedevere]

use Chinchou instead

Rep the Chou.

How necessary is Waterfall? Because if not very then I'll be using Starmie > Poliwrath.

-Terywj

Waterfawl is lawl. You use it to get in Kanto, and then random dungeons like Mt. Silver and that's it. Only use it permanently on your team if you REALLY don't want to SLIGHTLY cripple your team on the way to Indigo Plateau (since you need to make room for an HM slave).

 

[Yonder]

The award for easiest evolved happyness pokemon goes to...golbat to crobat! Jesus I counted, evolved him to crobat 15 mins.

Caught Golbat in a friend ball, gave him a soothe bell, a older brother haircut, challenged a gym leader and it evolved the next level. Lol


My team thus far is:

Slickback the feraligator lv 35
Pwnsir the Pinsir level 26
Natzi? the Electrode lv 27
Kenya the Fearow (stole from the guy at goldenrod lol) lv 30 (Going to replace with something)
Nomnom the Crobat lv 24
Firefox the vulpix lv 26
And the 3rd slot idk yet, keeps changing. Want a grass type...or skarmory

At the 6th gym leader now since I did the 7th and forgot about the 6th

 

[Night-san]

I'm grinding before taking on the E4.
My current team-
Pyre- Typhlosion, male- Level 41
Techno- Ampharos, female- Level 41
Sento- Nidoking, female- Level 43
Mirenia- Lugia- Level 45
Citadel- Furrett, female- Level 41
Sentaku- Espeon, male- Level 41

I'm obviously kidding about what you guys are gonna point out. Or am I?

 

[Charmander]

Sento- Nidoking, female- Level 43

FAILURE
*awwwww*

I think I read somewhere before that they were being criticized for the use of gambling within the game as a method to acquire items. Giving kids bad ideas or some bull**** like that. That's quite possibly the stupidest criticism I've ever heard about Pokemon; even worse than Christians thinking it promoted Satanism.

For the record, I'm just a firm believer in people keeping their religions to themselves. I don't have anything against Christianity.

Well there were a few official Japanese cards made by Game Freak that had a symbol that is occasionally used to represent the devil. The company says they supposedly were not going to bring them over to the USA anyway. Why they would go out of their way to place the symbol in their cards? I have no clue. That and the whole "evolution" thing, (which is in reality more like metamorphosis) are what caused several religious groups to have a fit over the series.

As far as the slots, gambling is considered taboo in Europe, and it was removed from Pokemon Platinum for the PAL version. They didn't want Europe to feel left out with Heart Gold and Soul Silver removing the slots, so they decided to make it even by removing them from the American games and replacing them with what we now have, since several people would probably import the American version just because of that change.

 

[Cease Tick]

I think that voltorb flip is much more fun than the slot machines ever were anyway.

 

[LoganW]

just beat morty
My team so far is Heracross (26), Quilava (26), and Ampharos (30)
any suggestions for water/flying/grass types?
i don't want pidgeot and i'm considering starmie
also where do i get evee i want an Espeon

 

[Steel]

but pidgeot is awesome and can roost 3:

and you get eevee from bill in goldenrod, he starts at level 5 this game though i vaguely remember him being like level 20 in the old gen of gold/silver

 

[UltiMario]

I think that voltorb flip is much more fun than the slot machines ever were anyway.

Not JP HGSS's Slot Machines.

You guys really missed out.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

O.o man, you really get made fun of for pokemon, Roach? Maybe it's because the middle grades everyone is so..weird..those years suck, to be honest.
I'm a senior in high school and a lot of people wear the pokewalker, and play the game at school. I do both >.>.

 

[UberMario]

At my college two guys in their twenties were playing Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver against each other. lol

 

[A_man13]

I saw someone with a DS and a screen that vaguely looked like a battle screen at my high school. Eh, who knows? He might have been playing brain age like all of those young whipper snappers at that age...

 

[Octave]

Octave, what moveset does your Nidoking have? I have a Nidorino, and I'm waiting for Poison Jab at Level 43 before evolving so that it can have SOME good move. What does yours have?

It's got Thrash, Double Kick, Peck, and Poison Jab, which I traded over with the Sneasel.

I'm hoping just by spamming vitamins and stuff, 'cause I wanna get a Crobat later in the game or earlier if necessary. Where does one get a Soothe Bell?

-Terywj

The soothe bell is in the National Park, just north of Goldenrod. It's in the top right corner.
