[Dragon trainer]

Pearl: Going to set up a breeding part on Pearl, starting with BP/Wishing Eevee's, breeding the Johto Starters, Sinnoh starters: Turtwig with Superpower, Chimchar with Thunderpunch, Pipplup with Yawn or Aqua Ring. Fossils: Cranidos with Crunch Sheildon with Curse or Headbutt. Eventually with Hoeen starters with Treecko: Dragonbreathe Torchic: Endure/Reversal and another with Rock Slide. Mudkip with Curse? and possibly Ralts with Calm mind/TB/Psychic/WoW.

This is going to be my summer pokemon project and will be set up for the middle of July.

Good choice for Bibarel, I used one on my previous team and it was strong.


I beat the "T.G. Eterna Bldg" and I beat Gardenia. Then I proceeded to find a Cascoon in Eterna Forest but heck, I didn't find any of the Wurmple line for like half an hour!

Then I defeated the trainers on the Cycling Road, caught a Gible, then SRed for Impish Shieldon and Adamant Cranidos.

[ShinyFufu]

Diamond: I caught a normal Quiet Heatran, and now I'm EV-training some shinies. Once I"m finished, I will go to Route 209 and get ready to chain for a shiny Mime Jr.

Pearl: SRing for Palkia still. Now that I'm free of the bondage of Stark Mountain on Diamond, however, I'll be able to soft reset for Palkia more.

[FireHead Hank]

Switched Infernape with this new father for my breeding project:

Mild, male : 28 / 31 / 26 / 31 / 0 - 4 / 31

He has the same flawless IVs and higher IVs in the other stats. SpD doesnt matter as I want the mother's spD IV to pass down. But the most important thing is that I can finally switch to the mass hatching method, having two Pokemon of the same species in the Daycare.

[Rogue Striker G]

Did some gts trading on my Diamond. Got me a Japanese Milotic and Hippowdon. Plan on breeding via masuda method for a shiny feebas. Going to finish eving my typhlosion in Speed and start eving my shiny Growlithe in Speed/Att/Hp(4 EVS of course).

In pearl I swept the E4 again with ease. Now I just need to find all the pokemon to complete my dex. Currently at 144. Sring to get a decent natured Uxie since I already caught me an Azelf. Then I need to do the Cresselia thing. After that I will get the Radar and head over to snowpoint city to get on the ferry.

[ShinyFufu]

Diamond: Chained a shiny Mime Jr, and evolved it. Now I'm hunting for a shiny Snover or Abomasnow atop Mt. Coronet.

Pearl: Same

[Zero Nexus]

Just training a male Machoke to lv40 so it can learn Cross Chop which i will then put it into the daycare with a female Croagunk so i can hatch a Croagunk that knows Cross Chop, but i'm going to make an egg that i can trade over to Platinum and hatch so it can become one of my main team...

[foxyman1167]

Currently breeding my pokemon to trade eggs to Platinum:

Magmortar/Tangrowth/Gliscor/Weavile/Lucario/Scizor. I'm really excited about this team!

To Do List:
-Naive Steadfast Riolu egg
-Adamant Keen Eye Sneasel egg
-Adamant Hyper Cutter Gligar egg
-Naive Magby egg
-Hasty Chlorophyll Tangela egg
-Adamant Technician Scyther egg

Well my Wi-Fi is being a ***** so I won't be battling for 2 - 3 weeks and as this unfortunate event has bestowed itself upon me, I figured I'd smash the Battle Tower. Got my streak up at 34, 35th battle was just a joke. I came up against a team of pathetic Pokémon that got OHKO'd until the last Pokémon which was Porygon2 came out. I had Gyuken/Gengar out with 70% HP so I switched to Yazurime/Miltank 100% and Porygon2 used Shadow Ball - LOL. Anyways Yazurime went first and used Brick Break which caused 35% damage (she's not an attacker just to note) and Porygon2 used Tri-Attack and got a critical hit KO'ing Yazurime. Next out was Shin-Ryu the shiny Flygon. She Earthquaked and Pory2 hung on with what appeared to be the thinnest slice of HP I've ever seen without a sash. Pory2 used Ice Beam and critted on Shin-Ryu KO'ing her, although I'm pretty sure that would have happened regardless of the critical. Finally I send Gyuken back out, Pory2 has an unexpected Quick Claw AND criticals with a Shadow Ball on Gyuken causing me to get knocked out of the Battle Tower! I was enraged at this point, that's just unbelievable hax! 3 criticals and a Quick Claw! I ended up smoking two cigarettes and leaving the DS away from reach to stop me throwing it. I'm sure others can relate as there has always been hax at the Battle Tower since Crystal?

[Pingouin7]

There always had been hax, let it be in-game and in the Battle Facilities. I don't see why the luck factor would be increased for the NPC's in the Towers/Frontiers.

Today while breeding for my special wall, I finally got my Calm Spoink I went to the game corner to get rest, (It's going to be a Rest Talker with Psychic and Energy Ball, I like this combo) I realized I didn't have enough money to buy 8,000 coins for rest! So I ran and went through the elite 4 a few times with Amulet Coin and ended up maxing out my money. I got rest and grabbed a hidden power in case I changed my mind about my Magmortar knowing SolarBeam. Any who, I started my Ariados with my ditto and they haven't had a egg yet but I can wait a while.

[Escape Reality]

i fianlly got a TRU regigigas so i can now go challenge the regis. yay!

[ShinyFufu]

Diamond: I'm currently hatching for a shiny Riolu via the Masuda Method. I've hatched around 150 eggs total these past two days, hatching 47 eggs yesterday, and 103 today. I hope it doesn't take too long to appear.

Edit: Depending on my future shiny Riolu's nature, I will be nicknaming it either "SHORYUKEN!" or "HADOUKEN!!"

[tom-tom]

training my pokemon to lvl 59 before the 8th gym leader

[burgaz62]

I picked up my neglected Pearl, and remebered i was doing a johto run through with 3 johto starters + umbreon and espeon. I found myself in florama, so i headed up to eterna forest, destroying all the trainers. totodile evolved into croconaw. Went into eterna forest and destroyed stuff with cheryl. Espeon is my weakest so i gave it the exp. share i traded over to make things easier.

[BynineB]

I'm doing a Budew only run.

Nubble the Budew

Female
Relaxed Nature
Absorb/Growth/Water Sport/Stun Spore

I'm about to go challenge my rival. Wish me luck!~

[Escape Reality]

today, i went to a GameStop store and traded in all my unwanted video games, though i forgot to bring my Wii and PS2 games, but anyway, so i traded them in for store credit and got a good amount of credit from those. so i decided to buy another copy of pokemon platinum so i could play though it again, since i don't want to delete the first one i got, because it'd require a lot of mass trading and losing all my stuff. :\

[.VALO.]

Well after deciding I want an Octillery I found my Emerald (took ages to find btw) and noticed someone had erased my file. I was not pleased in the slightest. I'm now having to run through it quick time in order to get a Remoraid and a modest Ditto so I can start breeding and then transfer to Diamond.

- I know this has mainly been about 3rd gen but the purpose is for 4th gen so it seemed more fitting here.

I have been doing well in my 'Gark Oak' anime team game. I have got to the part before the 5th gym, and am now in need of a surfer. I have restricted myself to only use pokemon that are descendants or are the pokemon owned by Gary Oak in the anime, with the exception of my starter (which is a slave). I have only a Kadabra and a Graveler, and they're both level 40, and so I need your help.

If ANYONE, could spare an egg of Horsea, Squirtle, or Krabby, and one of Doduo or Skarmory, and would be willing to do an enormous favour in trading me one of these, please PM me. I haven't anything to give, unfortunately, but I will be forever grateful as I cannot continue without your help.
