Official Pokémon Colosseum & XD: Gale of Darkness Recent Happenings Thread V2

[Aquarelle]

On Colosseum, I finished beating all the Cipher Admins in the Realgam Tower. It was the easiest time I've ever had defeating them, all thanks to my overlevelled Pokemon. Usually, my team is severely underlevelled and I lose a few times. :P

I then went and got the Master Ball. I returned to the tower, put the ID badges in their slots, then caught Heracross. I made my way to Gonzap and fought him, snagging Skarmory. After that, I defeated all the other trainers in the tower.

Now, I'm working on training my team to at least level 60 before taking on the Realgam Colosseum trainers. I only have Hariyama left to level up. I'm also working on purifying Entei and Flaaffy so that I'll have six Pokemon ready to trade over to my Emerald when I'm done the game and can trade my team over.

[GengarsRevenge]

So I'm stilling working on XD.

I found Miror B. He had me way overleveled but I managed to beat him. So now I've snagged all the shadow pokemon and just have one more to purify. I also just noticed that there are several training sims you can do in the HQ, so I did those. Also I guess I finished up to Area 6 of Mt. Battle.

So I've been working on the battle cd's and battle bingo while I have the last pokemon in the purify chamber. And I have 40 more trainers on Mt. Battle and all 7 rounds of Orre Colosseum to beat.

I finished purifying Entei. It was really easy using scents, plus Entei went into Hyper Mode nearly every time it tried to use Shadow Rush. I then began to work on purifying Flaaffy, but it took quite a while because it kept fainting in battle. I did get it done eventually, though. Then, I went to the Under Colosseum a couple of times to finish levelling up my Hariyama to level 60. Now, my whole team is level 60+. Next time I play, I'm going to buy more healing items and then go take on the trainers at the top of the Realgam Tower.

I completed the main storyline of Colosseum today. I swept through all the trainers at the top of the Realgam Tower with few problems, snagging all the Shadow Pokemon. The only difficulty I had was with Evice's Scizor, which 2HKOed my Espeon with Silver Wind and got a stat boost BOTH times. Fortunately, it Baton Passed to Tyranitar, which I then snagged immediately, so I was able to KO it when it came back out.

After watching the credits and starting back at the Outskirt Stand, I went to Phenac City and traded with my Emerald to get the Pokemon I want on my main team. My Pokemon were all level 35-40, so I took them to the Phenac Colosseum and then Mt. Battle for training. I trained all of them to level 45 or 46.

Finally, I decided to try out my new team in the game's battle mode. I registered my team and entered the single challenge at the Phenac Colosseum. My opponents were all 4-5 levels higher than my Pokemon, but I defeated them all easily.

[GengarsRevenge]

I finished purifying the last shadow pokemon. I used a guide to find all the battle cd's and just finished beating them all. I'd beaten the 11 battle bingo cards and was going to redo them all on one panel mode, but I just beat one and realized the game doesn't reward you or anything for beating them, so I think I am done with battle bingo as well.

EDIT: I finished Mt. Battle and the lucky egg quest. So now all I've got left are 6 rounds of Orre Colosseum.

On Colosseum, I levelled up all my Pokemon to lv. 57. I then headed to the Snagen Hideout, where I caught Bayleef. Afterward, I went to the lab and snagged the Shadow Quilava. I then went back to the hideout and captured Ursaring and Smeargle. I defeated Gonzap again, and got the D-Disk. I used it to go down to the Deep Colosseum, where I defeated Miror B.

On the battle mode, I cleared the Phenac Stadium on doubles and the Pyrite Colosseum on singles.

[Excitable Boy]

Finally got around to beating Greevil. Mainly used Shadow Salamence, Walrein, Shadow Lugia, and Espeon. Sadly, I only Snagged Exeggcutor.

Purified some random stuff and Snagged some random stuff from Miror B. Left some Poke Snacks in an attempt to find Bonsly. Got Munchlax and Aron (the latter of which DIED for not being Bonsly).

Currently, I have left to Snag Manectric, Moltres, Rhydon, Tauros, Articuno, Zapdos, and Dragonite. Of the ones that I have Snagged, Snorlax and Solrock are being Purified in the Purification Chamber, and Salamence has been added to my party.

Today, I went to the Deep Colosseum to beat the rest of the Cipher Admins. Venus and Ein were a little annoying, but I found Dakim really easy because he killed a couple of his own Pokemon with Earthquake. :P Eventually, I reached the Deep King, where I snagged his Shuckle. After that, I trained a bit until all my Pokemon were at least level 65. I then went to the Outskirt Stand, where I snagged Togetic.

So now, I have snagged all the Shadow Pokemon on Colosseum. I'll work on purifying them all next.

[windslicer4]

I got a SHINY HO-OH and then comes my sister storming in my room and unplugs my wii...(don't know why) Well when she restarted her file she found a shiny AND female Balyleaf.
So i took it upon myself to flip the power on the the power breaker thingy and it turned off the gamecube. I love payback.

On Colosseum, I went to do Area 8 of Mt. Battle. My Pokemon were at much higher levels than the opponents, but the battles were still a little challenging because my wireless controller kept acting up. When I would select which Pokemon to use my attacks on, sometimes the cursor would move by itself and I'd end up attacking my own Pokemon. >_> Fortunately, I managed to fix it and ended up clearing the area. I then moved on to Area 9 and cleared that too. Four of my team members reached level 70 from my training, while the other two are lv. 68-69. I saved my game in the break room between Areas 9 and 10, so I'll probably finish the last area whenever I play next.

[PkmnTrainerJ]

So, I decided to snag Croconaw, mainly because I just left via the main gate and forgot about the whole thing. Took three pokéballs and Makuhita nearly dying though. Off to Pyrite Town now.

[Redstars89]

Just hooked up my gamecube and started a game. Decided on Flareon. Just finished purifying my first pokemon. After Ledyba was purified much to my surprise he learned psybeam. I decided to keep him on the team due to the rarity of psychic attacks early in the game. Later he can be used to set up reflect and light screen.

[ShadowKyogre443]

So I just finished my XD game and caught/purified every Pokemon in the game, but I don't have a GBA, Gamecube, or even a connecting cable. Any suggestions on how I'll get all three items while spending the least amount of money possible?

Playing Colosseum and XD at the same time - I just bought XD and have had it for about half a day. So.

In Colosseum, I've just gotten through Pyrite Colosseum and just caught the Shadow Yanma in the Cipher hideout. My team, the shadows are both ready to be purified but with my current progress I can't quite do that yet xD:

-Espeon (Lv. 28)
-Umbreon (Lv. 29)
-Quilava (Lv. 30)
-Makuhita (Lv. 30)

In XD, I've gotten about halfway through the Pokemon Research Lab (the one where you have to fight the Hexagon Brothers -- I'm not exactly sure what it's called lol). My team is:

-Jolteon (Lv. 18)
-Teddiursa (Lv. 18)
-Houndour (Lv. 19)
-Spheal (Lv. 18)

I finally completed Mt. Battle on Colosseum today (in story mode). Area 10 wasn't that hard since my team was about 10 levels higher than the opponents. However, it was more challenging than I was expecting. Some of the trainers were quite annoying, especially the one who had a Rain Dance-based team. The battles were also quite long, so it took me a while before I reached zone 100. The 100th battle wasn't too bad either, I OHKOed most of the Pokemon and only one of my Pokemon fainted. After winning, I collected my coupons and saved the game.

[manniezmoll]

XD: went straight through mt battle yesterday. only took about 4 hours from start to finish. currently redoing battle 100 to get a decently natured chikorita. hopefully that'll only take a few SR, so i'm not doing this one battle all day...

[pokedigijedi]

I have recently restarted my pokemon colosseum game. It wasn't willingly though the thing crashed on me and I have no idea why.
