[Flareth]

I beat the Elite Four!!

I need to see Combee, Medicham, Misdreavus, Sudowoodo, and Hippopotas to get National Dex.

EDIT: Saw Dusclops

 

[Thorne]

Have been spending nearly the entire night looking for Absol's in Mt. Coronet, but in the end it was just like looking for a gem in a sea of puke, and the time is getting late so I have to go to bed.

On second note, I ditched my Lucario for a Probopass.

I have spent the better part of today and some of yesterday breeding for a modest Togepi with Nasty Plot and Serene Grace. I've bred about 15 or so and none of them have fit the bill. Once I have one it will become my first EV trained Pokemon.

Badges:5
Time:
Team:
Cosmo Lv.42
Asthore Lv.42
Firenze Lv.42
Candide Lv.48
Taline Lv.42

Candide is over leveled because of being in daycare for so long. Now there is a replacement Togetic in there.

Right now I'm training my Pokemon for the elite 4(they're only at lv. 43, I hate training) and trying to catch Mesprit. Here are the Pokemon I'm taking to the elite 4:

Ferno
Neo
Rustica
Pinko
Veeno
Tika

 

[Slartibartfast]

About halfway to the elite four, I gave my team a massive overhaul and so now I have to train like crazy to become worthy of fighting them (Victory Road needs to be longer, dang it!):
(Tempest) Lv.50
(No suitable nickname found) Lv. 51
(See Garchomp) Lv. 50
(See Garchomp) Lv. 50
(See Garchomp) Lv. 49
(See Garchomp) Lv. 46

And yes, I do know that it's not all that good of a team, but I also couldn't care less.

I need to see 13 more to get National Dex, most of which will appear with the Elite Four.

And...I have a play time of 40 hours, partially because I find all-new ways to waste time (once, just for fun, I beat up about 60 Bidoofs and Starlys to see how high I could get my stats in one leveling up).

 

[Zoltea]

Might as well get my team up. :P I'm still working on it though. >.>

[Slartibartfast]

^ o_O I WILL LOOK SIMILAR IN A MONTH OR SO!...anyway, how did you get them all to Lv.100 so quickly?

 

[Zoltea]

I did their EVs on Diamond which got them to about level 20 by the time I was finished. From there I sent them to Platinum and gave them a Lucky Egg. :P
I think I should have level 100 of each Eeveelution soon. :3

 

[Spatz]

I n truth I despise doing the league after the stark quest. a lv 78 Garchomp Murders even lv 94 T-Tar with EQ. I rely on Moe's Ice Punch to down that damn dragon, which has a happy STAB on two base 100's. GRAWR!

Oh well, I finally have teh Piano so, yeah...I've actually been working with making a team or a few, more of for fun at this years ai-kpon, but whatever.


Clyde - T-Tar (Tar's son)
Zelx - Zangoose
Ricolan - Specialist Lucario (Perfect speed, woo!)
Erkart - Physical Lucario (Perfect attack woo! and Rico's older bro...)
Spatz - Raichu (Volt Tackle lolz what?)

Lori - Remade Staraptor
Favian - Onikami's sister (hopefully)
Darcy - Jolteon

(Many of these names are stolen from the RP I'm hosting here...)

(This proves how epically bored I am!)

 

[Alxprit]

^Did it really take 10 Elite Four battles to get the Piano?

 

[Slartibartfast]

Once again, I've switched my team around--after I got through about half the Champion's Pokémon before losing, I switched my Luxray out and spend the better part of an hour catching a Feebas thirteen Feebas and evolving one to Milotic. Now I just need to level it up another 35 levels or so, and I'll be ready to fight the Elite Four again. :D I now have 12 Pokémon above level 40 (9 that I've trained), with Milotic getting there. Eventually I'll get around to beating the elite four. Eventually.

On the plus side, I got far enough in the Elite Four that getting my Milotic gave me the National Dex. After only 50 hours of gameplay.

 

[Spatz]

^Did it really take 10 Elite Four battles to get the Piano?

Yep, check serebii, they tell you all of the accomplishments necessary to get the special furniture. Bloody annoying though, I don't appreciate the Gallade, Garchomp, Drapion, or Togekiss

 

[Jolty]

I'm training my guys for the Eterna Galactic building since I have no cheats this time

this is my third playthrough

 

[Espeonrules]

Sorry, haven't updated in a while.
I got two more gym badges from Fantina and Maylene(or whatever her name is). Here's a basic rundown:

Fantina: She wasn't too difficult, to my surprise. Probably since you can challenge her earlier in the game. I mainly used Star for most of the battle due to her immunity to Shadow Claw, until she was low in health from Gengar. Then I switched to Princess and killed it, following with Mismagius.

Maylene: Her gym puzzle confused me for a minute or two, but I manged to figure it out quickly enough and reached her. I was planning to use Star again for her, but it turned out Luminous was enough to beat her, and I didn't need Star after all. Basically, her Pokemon were all owned by Spark.

Now I'm on my merry way to Pastoria and on the way raising up Flame and Fluer, my Roselia.

Current Team:

(Princess)
Female
Lv. 33
Moveset: Pound, Bubblebeam, Brine, Peck

(Star)
Female
Lv. 32
Moveset: Fly, Aerial Ace, Wing Attack, Quick Attack

(Luminous)
Male
Lv. 32
Moveset: Bite, Swagger, Charge, Spark

(Flame)
Male
Lv. 30
Moveset: Take Down, Flame Wheel, Stomp, Ember

(Fluer)
Female
Lv. 30
Moveset: Magical Leaf, Grasswhistle, Toxic Spikes, Giga Drain

 

[Slartibartfast]

Woot! I finally beat the elite four!

 

[spaekle]

Woohoo, I finally got around to catching Dialga and Palkia and am never going up that annoying-ass mountain again! At least until the Arceus event is available!

Might go catch Heatran next.

 

[Diz]

I'm stuck in the Distortion World. I can't figure out how to get to where the 3rd boulder is. Any help?

[Ramsie]

Last night I achieved two small milestones. I obtained 100 Pokemon in my Sinnoh Pokedex and have played for 100 hours. Yet I have not completed the main quest. This is partly because I ma lazy but also because I want to draw the experience out as long as possible. So I'm currently EV training my Grotle and debating whether evolving my Roselia is a good idea or should I just train up a new one. Or if I should just avoid evolving it altogether.

 

[Diz]

I got through that part of the distortion world, but I lost to cyrus, and 'cause I didn't save before fighting him, I shut it off and have to find that way again
