Yes, and probably not. We need a large sample space to have a good tourney, and it appears not many people have HGSS.

I have Ruby, Fire Red, Leaf Green, and Diamond. Sadly I'm not too far in many of those... Wow I never realized how pitiful some of my Pokemon are... I soooo need to fix this.

But yes, Pokemon rock XD

And I may be able to find someone who wants to participate in your contest, Jolteon is a HUGE Pokemon fan.

Ruby is my favorite because it has Blaziken, mine kicks all comers butts lol.

I don't even remember where I am at in FireRed or LeafGreen! I feel really bad about that so I am going to have to play it later on if I don't get sidetracked by the blasted Gym puzzle in the Snowpoint Gym in Diamond... Blasted snowballs.

Well like I have brought every pokemon game since they started coming out, but I have never beaten diamond. I'm ashamed of myself because of that fact and want to start the game over. Sadly I can't since I have some pokemon I really love in it, like all 3 of my starters :(. I was thinking about hosting a tourny for VBA Link of S/G/C before all this EV and IV stuff was relevant for the hell of it. Any one would be interested?

A pokemon toruney eh? I'd love to join this! I'd ask 'what're the rules' but I get the feeling this is still being planned out. I've got some ideas if you're willing! Just shoot me a PM.

I can hold them then trade them back to you if you want.

Would anyone actually use a Surfing/Flying Pickachu or just keep them for novelty?

Also, reminds me of the time I caught Mew on Red <.< Awesome glitch was awesome. He could learn every TM and HM plus had lolwtf stats. Swept through the Pokemon League back then with him iirc.

Raichu's sp atk and attack are both pretty good. Couple that with Surf, which defeats its ONLY weakness (Ground) or Fly which evades all attacks (including Earthquake) and uh. It can be pretty nice.

Also, reminds me of the time I caught Mew on Red <.< Awesome glitch was awesome. He could learn every TM and HM plus had lolwtf stats. Swept through the Pokemon League back then with him iirc.

He wasn't glitched. >.> He really IS that good. First Pokemon ftmfw.


I want someone to explain this to me.

I was fighting Sabrina in HeartGold. I killed 2/3 pokes and was down to the level 55 Alakazam. I had 4 guys left (Espeon had Shadow Ball... poor Xatu...), with one of them having been killed by the Mr. Mime getting a crit with Psychic. v.v

ANYWAY. I was like oh, she sucks. I still had my Scizor with X-Scissor, so I decided to play with it with my level 52 Meganium.

Here's the numbers.

Meganium had 121/161 HP left after a Psychic. Light Screen was down.

Reflect wore off on her side. I used Light Screen, he used Reflect. I then used my THIRD X Sp. Def on my Meganium.

Alakazam uses Psychic. Critical hit. Meganium goes down. (118 Sp. Def, btw)

I call bullshit.


NOW, to add insult to this obvious glitch, I sent out my Scizor (lv. 50) next. I set up X-Scissor, Alakazam uses Psychic first. 23 damage. Scizor has 96 Sp. Def and had no X Sp. Def's used on him.

Explain to me how, albeit being NVE, a Psychic from a level 55 Alakazam can do 121 damage on a crit to Meganium with LS+3 Sp. Def buffs and yet do just 23 pitiful damage on a LS'd Scizor with 20 less Sp. Def.

Just. Ugh.

Make it Adamant and max out Attack (252). The rest, you should aim for 203 Speed total, however many EV's you'd need for that according to the IV you get. The leftover should be dumped into HP. :>

203 + 1 Dragon Dance outruns lots of pokes like Salamence and such, as well as outrunning Garchomp, which is pretty cool.

o-o All of that was mentioned on Serebii and Pokebeach on Saturday. Should keep one of them in your bookmarks for up-to-date Pokemon info. I prefer Serebii, since it has such amazing references, like a full pokedex and itemdex for the entire series. :>

Depends on what game you're talking about. I assume it's either D/P/Platz or HG/SS?

Diamond & Pearl

HP - Shellos/Bidoof - Valley Windworks
Attack - Machoke/Bibarel - Route 211 East
Defense - Graveler/Onix - Iron Mountain
Special Attack - Gastly/Haunter - Old Chateau
Special Defense - Tentacool/Tentacruel - Route 220 or anywhere you surf
Speed - Staravia/Pikachu - Trophy Garden

Heart Gold & Soul Silver

HP - Wooper/Quagsire - Union Cave
Attack - Goldeen/Seaking - Route 42
Defense - Geodude/Graveler/Skarmory/Gligar - Route 45
Special Attack - Mareep/Flaaffy/Girafarig - Route 43
Special Defense - Drowzee/Ditto/Tentacool/Tentacruel - Route 34
Speed - Ratata/Raticate/Meowth/Plusle/Minun - Routes 38 & 39

Hope that helps.
