Going to be putting each part in a spoiler tag and try to fit everything into as little posts as I can.
Spoiler:- Part 1:
So, I recently restarted in Platinum after trying a Nuzlocke and now I'm going to have an actual team. Each post will cover up to a gym battle and all important events in between until the E4. After that, I might do the post-game. Now, it begins!
- I'm Zach and my rival's name is Matt.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 1: The Coal Badge
- I picked my starter, Piplup, and nicknamed it Cobblepot.
- Battled my rival right after and beat him. Not listing how the match went because we only have 1 Pokémon.
- Both of us went to Verity Lakefront, saw Cyrus and went back home.
- After heading back home, I watched Dawn show me how to catch Pokémon (as if I didn't already know).
- Caught a Shinx, which I nicknamed Sphinx. Also caught a Bidoof that I nicknamed HM Slave (not listing it on My Team because it is only temporary)
- Did all the stuff in Jubilife City and went to Route 204, only to catch a Budew that I nicknamed Masquerade.
- Battled my rival at Route 203. I don't remember too well how it went, but I have a decent enough idea.
Sphinx VS Starly (Sphinx wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Turtwig (Cobblepot wins)
- Did some more leveling up and eventually reached Oreburgh City. I found Roark and eventually made my way to the gym.
- I lost a couple of times to Roark, thanks to his Cranidos, but I did manage to gain a few levels because of it. I just barely beat him too.
Cobblepot VS Geodude (Cobblepot wins)
Sphinx VS Onix (Sphinx is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Onix (Cobblepot wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Cranidos (Cranidos wins)

Spoiler:- Part 2:
Tons of stuff has happened since Part 1. I also found out something surprising. Somehow, my entire team managed to get Pokérus!
- Battled Team Galactic Grunts alongside Dawn at Jubilife City. On the way to Eterna Forest, Cobblepot & Sphinx evolved.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 2: The Forest Badge
- After exiting Eterna Forest, I got to Eterna City.
- I wanted a Togepi on my team, but since the one from Cynthia is only LV 1, I traded one from my Pearl nicknamed Serena. Might just use the Egg if Cynthia's ends up being female because I can trade it to Pearl and easily level it up.
- Just like Roark, I had trouble with Gardenia. I do know how the final battle went.

Spoiler:- Part 3:
Got another update! Not the most eventful, but oh well.
- Did the stuff at the Eterna Galactic Building and just narrowly won over Jupiter.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 3: The Relic Badge
- Continued on towards Hearthome City and did everything at Wayward Cave.
- At Hearthome City, I talked to everyone there and got tons of new items.
- I also walked at Amity Square for a bit.

Next Time: Getting another badge! Might also get a new team member.
Spoiler:- Part 4:
Tons of exciting things have happened, such as me getting a new team member.
- I headed to Solaceon Town, battling some trainers, but not the Joggers (it was nighttime) and Lost Tower (I did that a little bit later).
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 4: The Cobble Badge
- Placed the Odd Keystone in its place.
- At Solaceon Town, I talked with all the people there and got some cool stuff.
- In the Solaceon Ruins, I battled the trainers there and got a ton of items, including Defog.
- Went to Veilstone City, battling all the trainers between Solaceon & Veilstone (except the Joggers).
- I skipped over to the next route really quickly and caught my next team member, a Houndour named Tiberius!
- After that, I got some levels on it and it quickly evolved into Houndoom. I went back to the Lost Tower and battled the people there. Pretty sure I saved after that.
- The next day (today), I battled the Joggers and got some more levels on it. I explored the rest of Veilstone City and did some of the Game Corner.
- Went to the gym and saw Dawn, along with Wake.
- In the gym, I battled the trainers, which was a bit annoying because I wanted to get some levels on Tiberius, but its only attacking move is Bite.
- After I battled some trainers, I noticed I had 3 Rare Candies and decided to use one on Tiberius, Masquerade & Serena. They each got a level up and Masquerade even evolved! Serena will probably evolve in another level or two.
- Challenged Maylene and beat her on my first try.
Tiberius VS Meditite (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Machoke (Cobblepot wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Lucario (Lucario wins)
Cobblepot VS Lucario (Lucario wins)
Sphinx VS Lucario (Sphinx wins)
- After that, I went to help out Dawn against the Galactic Grunts. We won easily, but one thing shocked me. When her Clefairy used Metronome, it got.........JUDGMENT!!!!!! Friggin Judgment. Serena would never get a move like that.
- Went into the warehouse with Looker and quickly got HM02, Fly.
- With all that done, I healed and saved at the Veilstone Pokémon Center.
My Team
Cobblepot/Prinplup- LV 31
Defog, Metal Claw, Brine & Pluck
Sphinx/Luxray- LV 31
Tackle, Leer, Bite & Spark
Masquerade/Roselia- LV 31
Mega Drain, Growth, Flash & Stun Spore
Serena/Togepi- LV 31
Return, Shock Wave, Metronome & Sweet Kiss
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 29

Playtime: 11:26
Next Time: Getting the Fen Badge and hopefully will have another evolution or two, as well as maybe some new moves to be learned!
By the way, my final capture wont happen for a while. Just letting you guys know.
Also, just noticed that the badge is the Cobble Badge and my starter is Cobblepot. Too bad he couldn't win it for me. Came so close!
Spoiler:- Part 5:
Got a new evolution in this part and it was one I was really excited for.
- Starting where we left off, I journeyed to Pastoria City and as expected, Serena finally evolved into Togetic and now it is getting better moves. I taught it Fly and went to Jubilife to get a Pokétch App.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 5: The Fen Badge
- Battled all the trainers on the way to Pastoria City and easily made it there.
- At Pastoria City, I talked to all the people there and di the Great Marsh, where I caught 5 Pokémon (Bibarel, Wooper, Quagsire, Tropius & Tangela) in order to get another app.
- After that, I went to Solaceon Town for the newspaper thing to get a Heart Scale and teach Tiberius Thunder Fang.
- Battled Matt and I crushed him with Tiberius & Cobblepot.
Tiberius VS Staravia (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Buizel (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Grotle (Grotle wins)
Bidoof VS Grotle (Grotle wins)
Tiberius VS Grotle (Healed Tiberius before and now he won and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Ponyta (Cobblepot wins)
- Before challenging the gym, I journeyed west and went all the way to Hearthome City, battling all the trainers I could find. The officers and Surf areas will have to wait though.
- I challenged all the gym trainers and went back to Backlot's Mansion to challenged the 5 Maids Thing and won, but couldn't do it within the turn limit.
- Challenged Wake and I crushed him.
Sphinx VS Gyarados (Sphinx wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Quagsire (Masquerade wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Floatzel (Floatzel wins)

Mega Drain, Growth, Flash & Stun Spore

AncientPower, Shock Wave, Drain Punch & Fly
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 35
Smog, Thunder Fang, Bite & Fire Fang
Playtime: 14:43
Next Time: Getting the next Badge and doing a bunch of TG stuff. I promise Cobblepot will also evolve in the next part. Also going to be challenging some officers and doing stuff with Surf. Will not be doing Iron Island until Part 7 though because that is also when I get my next team member. I want to make sure it doesn't get too far behind and that I wont be too underleveled later on down the road.
Spoiler:- Part 6:
Only one new evolution, though some of my team members have gotten some good moves.
- Went to see the TG Grunt use the Galactic Bomb, so I followed him and then battled and beat him.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 6: The Mine Badge
- I got the SecretPotion from Cynthia and cured the Psyduck.
- Battled all the trainers I could battle on the way to Celestic Town.
- Battled Cyrus. Pretty sure Tiberius just crushed his whole team. I do remember that it barely survived against Murkrow. Just 4 HP left (and at first, Tiberius lost more than half his HP).
- Got Surf, so I explored literally every Surfing spot in Sinnoh I could get to and I got a ton of great items & TMs, such as Giga Drain & Flamethrower. I also found out that I never went east of Eterna before, but now I did and battled those trainers. Also battled the trainers west of Celestic Town.
- I headed to Jubilife City and quickly got a new app as I made my way to Canalave City.
- Battled all the trainers on the way and eventually made it there.
- At Canalave City, I talked with the trainers on the west side, healed and then went on the bridge and battled Matt.
Sphinx VS Staraptor (Sphinx wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Rapidash (Cobblepot wins)
Cobblepot VS Heracross (Heracross wins)
Serena VS Heracross (Serena wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Torterra (Tiberius wins)

Tiberius VS Steelix (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Serena VS Bastidon (Bastiodon wins)
Bidoof VS Bastiodon (Bastiodon wins)
Tiberius VS Bastiodon (Tiberius is recalled)
Masquerade VS Bastiodon (Masquerade is recalled)
Serena VS Bastiodon (Serena wins)
I tried to have only Serena & Tiberius in the gym and wanted to paralyze Bastiodon with Masquerade, but Bastiodon wouldn't ever beat it. Also didn't want Cobblepot & Sphinx to be in the gym battle to give them a little break.
- Can't do anything with the story until I go to Iron Island and get Strength, so I healed and saved at the Pokémon Center.
My Team
Cobblepot/Empoleon- LV 40
Defog, Flash Cannon, Surf & Pluck
Sphinx/Luxray- LV 40
Tackle, Leer, Bite & Spark
Masquerade/Roselia- LV 40
Giga Drain, Shadow Ball, Flash & Stun Spore
Serena/Togetic- LV 40
AncientPower, Shock Wave, Drain Punch & Fly
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 40
Smog, Thunder Fang, Bite & Flamethrower
Playtime: 18:02
Next Time: Getting my 7th Badge and my 6th Team Member (will be the first thing I do) and doing the required TG stuff.
Spoiler:- Part 7:
1 Capture and 4 Evolutions happen in this part. I got a lot done here. Easily one of my most eventful parts. It is also the last part to have any new captures or evolutions for my team.
- Got Strength right outside Iron Island from Riley. Thankfully I can come back later for the trainers.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 7: The Icicle Badge
- Went back to Canalave City and witnessed the earthquake, so the group split up.
- At Lake Valor, I battled and crushed Saturn and at Lake Verity, I battled and crushed Mars. I don't remember too well how the battles went, unfortunately, but I will try to remember how future battles go. I'll just write them down or something.
- Anyways, I was finally able to get my 6th team member, who is on Route 217.
- I battled 2 trainers (had to) and saw my caught my new team member, a Swinub named Swine Flu. I quickly evolved it into Piloswine with my Rare Candies. I got a Pokémon for the News Press in Solaceon to get a Heart Scale, taught Swine Flu Ancientpower and a level later, it evolved into Mamoswine.
- Trained it up at Iron Island and I got the Riolu Egg from Riley, as well as a Shiny Stone at the end of Iron Island.
- I needed one more Shiny Stone, so I found one in my brother's Platinum and brought it over. Evolved Serena into Togekiss and then Masquerade into Roserade. Now my team is complete! I also hatched the Riolu Egg.
- I went to locations with Strength (by the way, I gave Strength to Tiberius) to do stuff there and was eventually on my way to Snowpoint City. I battled all the trainers I could on the way there, picked up all items I could, including Rock Climb, and when I got there, I remembered one more thing I could do.
- Went south of Sandgem Town and headed to the Pal Park, picking up some items and battling some trainers. Of course I can't do anything with the Pal Park right now, but I might as well get some leveling up in before the gym battle.
- Before the gym battle, I got some Heart Scales and taught Swine Flu Ice Fang & Serena Aura Sphere.
- I crushed the Snowpoint Gym Trainers and fairly easily beat Candice. Her Froslass was annoying, but not too much of a nuisance.
Serena VS Sneasel (Serena wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Abomasnow (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Piloswine (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Froslass (Tiberius wins)
Looks like another gym without Cobblepot & Sphinx!
- Now that I can use Rock Climb, I taught it to Swine Flu and went to every place I could with Rock Climb and got even more items. Even battled a couple of trainers I missed.
- Went over to Lake Acuity and saw Barry get crushed by Jupiter, but now I know where to go next! Veilstone City! I picked up Blizzard, which was on the other side of Lake Acuity.
- Healed and saved at the Veilstone City Pokémon Center.
My Team
Cobblepot/Empoleon- LV 44
Defog, Flash Cannon, Surf & Pluck
Sphinx/Luxray- LV 44
Iron Tail, Leer, Crunch & Spark
Masquerade/Roserade- LV 44
Giga Drain, Shadow Ball, Flash & Stun Spore
Serena/Togekiss- LV 44
AncientPower, Shock Wave, Aura Sphere & Fly
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 44
Strength, Thunder Fang, Bite & Flamethrower
Swine Flu/Mamoswine- LV 44
Rock Climb, Earthquake, Ice Fang & Ancientpower
Playtime: 23:33
Next Time: The rest of the TG stuff and my 8th Badge. Will finish up other things in either Part 8 or Part 9 (before I challenge the E4 though).
Spoiler:- Part 8:
Of course no new captures and evolutions, but a ton of major battles took place. 2 of them were probably the hardest in the game for me thus far. I also write the battles down now, so I don't forget! By the way, my team doesn't have Pokérus anymore. Some of my boxed Pokémon still have it though! Maybe I'll bring one over to Generation V.
- Tons of stuff happened where we left off. I headed into the Galactic Warehouse and battled all the people there.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 8: The Beacon Badge
- Now for the actual Galactic Veilstone Building. I battled all the grunts there and eventually made my way to Cyrus.
Tiberius VS Sneasel (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Honchkrow (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Crobat (Tiberius wins)
Won with 5 HP AND Poison
- After that, I battled Saturn.
Swine Flu VS Golbat (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Bronzor (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Toxicroak (Masquerade is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Toxicroak (Toxicroak wins)
Masquerade VS Toxicroak (Masquerade is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Toxicroak (Swine Flu is recalled)
Tiberius VS Toxicroak (Toxicroak wins)
Swine Flu VS Toxicroak (Swine Flu wins)
Tried to give Swine Flu the EXP on that last one.
- After that, I headed to Spear Pillar and after battling all the grunts, came face to face with Mars & Jupiter.
Masquerade & Munchlax VS Bronzor & Bronzor (Roserade & Bronzor lose)
Tiberius & Munchlax VS Bronzor & Purugly (Munchlax loses)
Tiberius & Rapidash VS Bronzor & Purugly (Bronzor loses)
Tiberius & Rapidash VS Skuntank & Purugly (Tiberius loses)
Swine Flu & Rapidash VS Skuntank & Purugly (Everyone except Swine Flu loses)
Swine Flu & Heracross VS Golbat & Golbat (Heracross loses)
Swine Flu & Floatzel VS Golbat & Golbat (Swine Flue loses)
Cobblepot & Floatzel VS Golbat & Golbat (Golbat loses)
Cobblepot & Floatzel VS Golbat (Cobblepot wins)
That was a tough and annoying fight. Good thing they don't force us to use just 3 Pokémon like in Emerald.
- I headed into the Distortion World and eventually found Cyrus. Battled him and it was tough.
Swine Flu VS Houndoom (Houndoom wins)
Cobblepot VS Houndoom (Cobblepot wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Gyarados (Gyarados wins)
Swine Flu VS Gyarados (Gyarados wins)
Masquerade VS Gyarados (Masquerade is recalled)
Sphinx VS Gyarados (Sphinx wins)
Sphinx VS Weavile (Weavile wins)
Tiberius VS Weavile (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Honchkrow (Honchkrow wins)
Swine Flu VS Honchkrow (Swine Flu wins)
Swine Flu VS Crobat (Swine Flu is recalled)
Masquerade VS Crobat (Crobat wins)
Tiberius VS Crobat (Tiberius is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Crpbat (Swine Flu is recalled)
Tiberius VS Crobat (Tiberius wins)
Another one of those "I want to give Swine Flu the EXP" battles.
- Anyways, after that battle (which was probably one of my toughest in the whole game so far), I battled Giratina. After I weakened it into the red, the first ball I threw was a Poké Ball, just for the laughs. IT SHOOK THREE TIMES!!!!! It actually also did that a second time. The friggin Poké Ball did better than the Dusk Ball, Ultra Ball & Timer Ball. I do wish I had stocked up on Poké, Ultra, Dusk & Timer Balls. I had very few left and unfortunately had to use my Master Ball. Cobblepot was also my last one and down to 29 HP (could easily heal it).
- After that disappointing appearance with Giratina, I was in the outside world again. Headed straight for Sunyshore City, battling all the trainers on the way.
- At Sunyshore City, I talked to all the people there, bought some cool Seals I'll be sure to use for my team and I even got some Pokétch Apps.
- Now it's time for the gym. Beat all the gym trainers and then it was time for Volkner, who I absolutely creamed. The Tag Battle against Mars & Jupiter and the battle with Cyrus were harder.
Tiberius VS Jolteon (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Raichu (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Electivire (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Sphinx VS Luxray (Sphinx wins)
Probably should have recalled Sphinx so Cobblepot could take the final win.
- After the easy gym battle (probably the easiest one I've ever had), I got Waterfall and taught it to Cobblepot (who is now the new HM Slave.....). Went to all the places with Waterfall.
- Healed and saved at the Sunyshore City Pokémon Center.
My Team
Cobblepot/Empoleon- LV 47
Defog, Waterfall, Surf & Rock Smash
Sphinx/Luxray- LV 47
Iron Tail, Leer, Crunch & Spark
Masquerade/Roserade- LV 47
Giga Drain, Shadow Ball, Flash & Sludge Bomb
Serena/Togekiss- LV 48
Fire Blast, HP (Electric), Aura Sphere & Fly
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 47
Strength, Thunder Fang, Bite & Flamethrower
Swine Flu/Mamoswine- LV 47
Rock Climb, Earthquake, Ice Fang & Ancientpower
Serena appeared in absolutely no major battles this part (shocking, right?), but is still my highest leveled. A bit ironic, even though I did battle every trainer I could see.
Playtime: 28:01
Next Time: The Elite 4 & Champion! I'll be doing some other minor things I never did before that though (like the stuff with the Underground Man, which I did a bit of).
Spoiler:- Part 9:
It's finally here! The end of the main game! I finish Victory Road, battle my rival, do some minor things and battle the E4 & Champion!
- I headed to Victory Road and easily made it there.
Zach's Pokémon Platinum Adventure Part 9: The Elite Four & Champion Cynthia
- Battled every trainer and I collected every item in Victory Road. Got some helpful movers, such as Dark Pulse.
- At the Pokémon League, I battled Rival Matt. Fairly easy battle.
Swine Flu VS Staraptor (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Floatzel (Masquerade wins and is recalled)
Serena VS Rapidash (Serena wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Heracross (Heracross wins)
Serena VS Heracross (Heracross wins)
Tiberius VS Heracross (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Torterra (Cobblepot wins and is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Snorlax (Swine Flu wins WITH 1 HP!)
Pretty good battle. Cobblepot VS Torterra just had to happen.
- Did the Underground Man's tests, just to have those finished.
- Got my team all at the same level (50), which wasn't too hard to do. Taught them all some great moves and I was ready to take on the E4!
- VS Aaron
Swine Flu VS Yanmega (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Scizor (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Heracross (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Vespiquen (Swine Flu wins)
Swine Flu VS Drapion (Swine Flu wins)
One of the easiest battles of the E4. Tiberius & Swine Flu had 4x effective moves against some Pokémon. Could have used Serena against Heracross, but decided against it.
- VS Bertha
Masquerade VS Whiscash (Masquerade wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Gliscor (Cobblepot wins with only 12 HP)
Cobblepot VS Hippowdon (Cobblepot wins)
Cobblepot VS Golem (Cobblepot wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Rhyperior (Masquerade wins)
Easier than Aaaron! Used 4x effective moves during the whole battle.
- VS Flint
Swine Flu VS Houndoom (Houndoom wins, 1st Casualty for me in the E4)
Serena VS Houndoom (Serena wins)
Serena VS Infernape (Infernape wins)
Cobblepot VS Infernape (Cobblepot wins)
Cobblepot VS Magmortar (Magmortar wins)
Swine Flu VS Magmortar (Magmortar wins)
Sphinx VS Magmortar (Magmortar wins)
Masquerade VS Magmortar (Masquerade is recalled)
Tiberius VS Magmortar (Magmortar wins)
Masquerade VS Magmortar (Masquerade wins)
Masquerade VS Flareon (Flareon wins)
Swine Flu VS Flareon (Swine Flu wins)
Swine Flu VS Rapidash (Rapidash wins)
Cobblepot VS Rapidash (Cobblepot wins)
Obviously much tougher than the previous 2 battles. Magmortar wrecked my team, but of course I would heal up. I went a bit overboard with healing items. This was when the Pokémon League really started to "heat up" (pun intended).
- VS Lucian
Sphinx VS Mr. Mime (Sphinx wins and is recalled)
Tiberius VS Bronzong (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Gallade (Gallade wins)
Serena VS Gallade (Gallade wins)
Tiberius VS Gallade (Gallade wins)
Sphinx VS Gallade (Sphinx wins and is recalled)
Swine Flu VS Alakazam (Alakazam wins)
Sphinx VS Alakazam (Sphinx wins)
Sphinx VS Espeon (Espeon wins)
Cobblepot VS Espeon (Cobblepot wins)
Though I got some great wins right off the bat, I'd definitely say this battle was harder than Flint. Cobblepot was close to losing. By the way, it always seems to be up to Cobblepot in my most hardest and intense battles.
- Now it's time for Champion Cynthis! As expected, I did lose a couple of times. Twice to be precise. The first time, I managed to beat her Garchomp, Togekiss & Milotic, before losing to Lucario. The second time, I only beat Garchomp. Not sure who I lost to the second time, probably Milotic. This is why I save before each E4 Match. Without further ado, here is the final match of the main game, Zach VS Champion Cynthia- The Most Epic Battle I Had In The Game!
Tiberius VS Spiritomb (Spiritomb recalled)
Tiberius VS Lucario (Lucario wins)
Swine Flu VS Lucario (Lucario wins)
Sphinx VS Lucario (Lucario is recalled, paralyzed)
Sphinx VS Garchomp (Garchomp wins)
Serena VS Garchomp (Garchomp wins)
Swine Flu VS Garchomp (Swine Flu wins and is recalled)
Masquerade VS Lucario (Lucario wins)
Tiberius VS Lucario (Tiberius wins)
Tiberius VS Milotic (Milotic wins)
Cobblepot VS Milotic (Cobblepot is recalled)
Masquerade VS Milotic (Masquerade wins and is recalled)
Sphinx VS Togekiss (Sphinx wins, critical)
Sphinx VS Spiritomb (Spiritomb wins)
Tiberius VS Spiritomb (Tiberius wins and is recalled)
Cobblepot VS Roserade (Roserade wins)
Swine Flu VS Roserade (Roserade wins)
Masquerade VS Roserade (Roserade wins)
Tiberius VS Roserade (Roserade wins)
Cobblepot VS Roserade (Cobblepot wins)
Longest and most stressful battle ever. If I didn't paralyze Lucario thanks to Sphinx's Spark, I might have lost. Lucario has super effective moves against everyone on my team except Masquerade and can hit very hard, very fast. I was surprised at how well Cynthia's Roserade did (mine could learn a thing or 2), but when it came down to it, my final Pokémon, good ol' Cobblepot pulled off the win!
My Team
Cobblepot/Empoleon- LV 52
Ice Beam, HP (Psychic), Surf & Flash Cannon
Sphinx/Luxray- LV 51
Iron Tail, Leer, Crunch & Spark
Masquerade/Roserade- LV 50
Energy Ball, Shadow Ball, Flash & Sludge Bomb

Fire Blast, HP (Electric), Aura Sphere & Fly
Tiberius/Houndoom- LV 51
HP (Ice), Thunder Fang, Dark Pulse & Flamethrower
Swine Flu/Mamoswine- LV 51
Return, Earthquake, Ice Fang & Stone Edge
This team truly was amazing. We've been through so many tough battles and somehow, pulled through all of them! The journey isn't over yet though!
Playtime: 31:45

Omg Im so happy after losing like 5 times to that Froslass... I finally received my seventh badge!! I the received the TM for Avalanche. Let's take a minute and thank my Ambipom.

It's trying to learn Crunch but we won't teach it because the only grass move it will learn now is Leaf Storm since we already know Giga Drain. Woo hoo we defeated Cyrus! Cyrus left after and Cynthia healed our Pokemon. Giratina appeared and we started our battle with it. First came Gastrodon and she used Hidden Power. Did nothing basically. Gastrodon ended up losing anyways. I sent in Froslass and Blizzard'd Giratina. It was quite strong. Giratina used Ominous Wind which almost defeated our Pokemon. Froslass used Ice Fang and now it's time to try and capture the Giratina. We sent in Drapion just because it's a good tank. We tried an Ulta Ball and failed lol. We then googled a bit and realized we can go back for Giratina if we kill it, so we killed it for exp. Cyrus came back and blabbed. Then we passed a portal and went back to Sinnoh. Then I headed to Prof. Rowan. I love how absolutely nobody knows you saved the world. It's like they didn't hear about Giratina, Dialga and Palkia appearing or anything like that, wasn't on the news or anything like that. The least they could do was give me all their Pokemon as a thank you present so I can rule the world...
I saved and stopped.







Stone Edge benefits greatly from No Guard too, and Rock's brilliant coverage, whereas Ice Punch is really only there to hit Garchomp and the like for heavier damage.
