So I've begun my slow playthrough. The intro FMV was pretty random. I'm a bit miffed at Reshiram, Zekrom, and Victini being rigged to never be shiny. Shiny Victini is gorgeous.

Justin Wong plays Pokémon.



To those that don't know who Justin Wong is: Justin Wong is one of, if not the, most famous fighting game player in the US. Popularly known to be the best at almost all the fighting games that he competes in, the fighting game community of the country calls it blasphemy if dedicated comeptitive fighters don't know about Justin Wong.

And then he talks about Pokemon. What?!
Mogsy
I personally don't give a fuck about Justin Wong.

Also, I haven't had the game for long. Just got Victini. Kinda mad that he, Zekrom, and Reshiram can't be shiny, but oh well. About to take on the third gym, then putting the game down for a bit to do more homework.

2 badges. Currently on that whatsit route that's kind of a mess.

Just started as of 5 minutes ago.
Bah. I've been trying to catch a Minezumi Patrat (lol@English names) for a minute now but I keep on making it faint...

Edit:
Also I got myself a Super Potion thanks to my Yooteri Lilypup.

Sold a million+ copies in a day in the US. I forget how that stands up to games like Blops.

I've heard good things about this trip around the school grounds. Now, are the character designs any good? Solid gameplay or not, the last pokemon game I played (gold/silver) had like 3 good pokemon designs and the rest were inferior to weedle.

This time around, yes (for once).

Probably won't be too impressed by these. They're barely Pokemon anymore. Of course there's this guy.

Anyways, this is one of the better Pokemon games so far and seems to hold a lot of improvement.

I was going to say something else, but I forgot.

Currently in the city with the 5th gym. Team of lv25s, one lv33 Krokorok, and one lv21 Sigilyph.

Prior to that, I had to fight a tag battle with Cheren against two preschoolers with their high attack Herdiers. I Swaggered them with my Krokorok, but instead of hitting themselves, they took out 3 of Cheren's pokemon with OHKO Take Downs, while my Krokorok didn't get any damage. It was awesome.

Haven't really played a lot, in Chargestone Cave right now. 5 badges, no Pokemon below level 30.

Mouth Hug (Tynamo) lv. 30
Bernkastel (Gothorita) lv. 32
Mokona (Cinccino) lv. 33
Smugleaf (Servine) lv. 34

I also started training Kling, got it to level 30, and gave up. Man, fuck that thing.

Cinccino is so cute, man. Too cute. Its movepool doesn't take advantage of its modest attack stat, but hey, Technician'd Wake-Up Slap.

Is there anyway to get another fossil? I button smashed and got the wrong one ;_;

I restarted because of this :( The bird fossil is fucking awesome. His attack and speed are top-tier, only problem is his ability is meant to hinder them (hp <50% = 1/2 stats)

Also, scrafty is probably my favorite 5th gen pokemon so far. It's ability is sexy for pve sweeps. Also, Scrafty was literally built for pokemon league. I don't want to spoil much but really. If you're having trouble with it (which you shouldn't - its ez) get a scrafty.

I made the same problem, but played on because I didn't care at that time. I just checked up on the stats, and holy wow.


I've already beat the 7th gym though, not sure if I should restart or maybe trade around for it.

My heart is broken D: Now I have to value ID 50505 vs Archeops ;_;
I only hope it is breedable so I can get it off from someone online atleast...
Pokebis
Even if it isn't breedable you can get it via the GTS.
I'm serious, I just breed starters or something and get legendaries in return. Sometimes just random Pokemon I have dupes of get me rare/exclusives.
mm201
Ancient pokemon are and have always been breedable. Also I took the turtle because I like its looks more.

(I currently have 4 badges and am battling trainers & stuff in the deep freeze.)

Just finished the main storyline today

Will be PokéTransfering a lot of mons from my Plat cart now.
Jinxy
Cleared the main storyline, had to fight Ghetsis twice due to bad team planning.

Can you guys recommend any good place to train a lv 50 Larvesta?

Why are pokemon games so easy? I win the whole game with my starter...
NoHitter
Gotten kind of lazy >.>
Perhaps I should get rid of my "All Pokemon I have must be the same level" mentality.
Going to the 2nd gym atm.
Jinxy
...Oh wow.

I didn't know there was a wild Volcarona all this time.


Jeez.
Zekira
You could also get that egg with it's pre-evo too; it's somewhere on that surf route west of Route 1

I heard pirated versions of the game were more challenging

Played Black in September, got bored and quit. But have to say the Pokemon League was pretty nice.

I thought the new experience system was supposed to stop this until I saw my nephew using just his starter as always. >_>

Azure_Kite
Lv34 Audino

I do have it, but I'm wasn't good at leveling it till it evolves at that time.


I have to now, though, since I'm breeding it.
Zekira
but I'm wasn't good
Pulling off an Issun grammar here

Anyways, you will not regret working on Volcarona.
mm201
I beat the elite four, so now I'm catching synchronizers for Zekrom. Is he Jolly or Adamant? What's a good one-under poke for Speed/HP?
Lokamp
...well, after defeating the Elite Four/Champion twice, now I have the official confirm.

This 5th generation will easily be recorded as the BIG march of the BIG snails.
Who finds a fast psychic (or ghost, or also fighting) pokémon will instantly win a million dollar, guaranteed. (legendaries/promotionals apart)
Mogsy
Not everything needs to be fast. jesus. We had enough fast Pokemon introduced during the last generation, it's about time we had some slower, bulkier stuff come in. Then again, I prefer to partake in battles that last more than 6-10 turns, when it comes to competitive play.

Also, Mienshao is pretty fast for a fighting type.
Jinxy
Okay, this is a general pokemon question, but what exactly happens to ditto's catch rate when transformed?


I have absolutely no problem when it changes to my Gallade, a single Ultra Ball when I false swipe it to 1 hp always catches it.
It accidentally changed to my Volcarona once, and I couldn't catch it.
With this logic, a weak pokemon should make it easier, no?

A Ditto changed into a lv4 Lillipup and managed to break 3 Ultra Balls with 1 hp before I gave up. What gives?
