Pokemon Update Thread

[SilverMoonArcher]

We need a place to talk and brag about HeartGold and SoulSilver, which technically isn't allowed in Pokemon Fan Club. Yeah, we could do that on "What are you doing right now?", but here it'd be on topic.

I searched and didn't find one. Feel free to yell at me if this isn't okay.

 

2/19/11 EDIT: I changed the title to allow for Black/White stuff. OCDness I guess.

[SilverMoonArcher]

I got to level 5. The memos are really useful.

[SilverMoonArcher]

Wait, who are you talking to? You did that on purpose. >.>

[odyssey2341]

How'd you do it?

MASSIVE UPDATE

Badges: 16. God, the Snorlax thing took forever to figure out.

Team:
Mewtwo lvl 70--Psycho Cut, Blizzard, Thunder, Hyper Beam

Ampharos lvl 61--Discharge, Strength, Focus Blast, Power Gem

Ho-Oh lvl 63--Psychic, Fly, AncientPower, Flamethrower

Snorlax lvl 50--Strength, Rock Slide, Crunch, Rock Smash

Haunter lvl 51--Dark Pulse, Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb, Curse. It's really hard to train this thing, but I want a Gengar pretty bad.

Gyardos lvl 58--Earthquake, Ice Beam, Return, Surf. Pretty bad moveset, but not so much I can do about it right now.

About to face Lance for the first time since the E4 level increase. Wish me luck.

HOLY CRAP. I almost pissed my pants when the old man in Veridian said some kid from Pallet ran the gym. I thought 'Oh my God! Red! The original trainer! *SQUEEEEE!*'. Then I saw it was Blue, and I almost pissed my pants again (Oh my God! Blue! The original rival!). The gym was a piece of cake.

Then I almost jizzed myself when I faced Red on mount silver. Take my reaction to Blue and multiply it by about 15. I'm surprised I didn't pass out. I got my ass handed to me by his Pikachu, but hey, it's Goddam Red!!! It's so damn epic how it just goes "..................", then the battle starts.

So, yeah. I've spent the week at my cottage with not much to do but play Pokemon with my brother and cousin. I've gotten pretty far. 15 badges in 6 days. Wut.

[odyssey2341]

Owned him. Mewtwo is beast.

[SilverMoonArcher]

So I refuse to play HG until I can get a firestone.

I'll play Diamond until then, so I can finish the very boring job of EVing Garchomp.

[SilverMoonArcher]

So I figure anyone who cares can read it here:

I have a project to work on that's due Monday, etc, so I don't know how much I'll be online during the week. I'll miss you guys if I don't log in, but I really need to impress this teacher to get an A. I hope we all have the weekend off so we can talk.
v.v >.> XP :(

New Dream Team:
Lapras--Ice Beam, Surf, Blizzard, Thunderbolt

Porygon-Z--Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Psychic

Umbreon--Dark Pulse, Last Resort, Wish/Moonlight, Giga Impact

Magnezone--Thunderbolt, Zap Cannon, Flash Cannon, Thunder

Gengar--Shadow Ball, Curse, Sludge Bomb, Hyper Beam

Garchomp--Earthquake, Dragon Rush, Crunch, Swords Dance

[odyssey2341]

I figure when I send out my Magnezone, my opponents will switch to a ground type, whereas with Lapras and Porygon-Z (insane sp. attack), they won't be expecting it.

Garchomp has good physical attack, and crunch is one of my favorite moves, just because of the animation. Umbreon has slightly higher physical attack, so GI would be better than HB.

Bah. I meant Flash Cannon.

[odyssey2341]

EDIT to your EDIT to my EDIT (huh?): I know I already had flash cannon, I meant I was still looking at the stats for flash cannon thinking they were for zap cannon.

You're right, I'll prolly go with magnet rise, then.

[SilverMoonArcher]

I'll ask because you probably know: What is your opinion on Metagross?

[SilverMoonArcher]

I don't care for Steel types, and I don't know why. They're so strong.
