**Cup of Tea** · 15th October 2012, 2:45 AM

I explored the Relic Path, where I found an entrance into the Relic Castle and caught a Volcorona. I evolved my Swadloon into a Leavanny, and made my way through Chargestone cave. Upon coming out, I met up with Skyla & Juniper. I battled all of the Mistralon Gym's trainers, and lost to Skyla, upon which I decided to go train by going to Celestial tower.

**Zoruagible** · 15th October 2012, 3:02 AM

I defeated the Elite Four and after several attempts finally defeated Iris. I did a few movies at the studio then I got an Eevee from Fennel's assistant. I replaced Sawbuck with it and evolved him into Leafeon. I encountered the lake trio and started my way towards Pinwheel forest. There I caught a Vigoroth, Palpitoad, and helped Cheren deal with Team Plasma

My team so far:

Toasty - Tepig - lv. 9
Roast - Patrat - lv. 8
Steal - Purrloin - lv. 7
Divebomb - Pidove - lv. 8
Teardrop - Azurill - lv. 5
Della - Lillipup - lv. 6 (caught this one, since it wouldn't let my Tepig escape from battle, so I figured it must be a pretty strong little Lillipup)

Going to be continuing my hunt for a Mareep and a Riolu tonight. Hope I can catch both of them tonight.

I love Azumarill so much

Finished up Victory Road and beat the League in Black 2. Gotta say, this game without a doubt feels to have ushered in a new era of Pokemon. As for the challenge, it was mild, but I had my team all in their 60s besides Empoleon which was lvl 100. Not only that, but the credits has me excited to see what the next gens' will be like.

**MetalFlygon08** · 15th October 2012, 3:35 AM

Just finished getting the PokeStar Star on the Ace's of all my past In-Game teams.

Leaving Virbank/Return to Virbank

Welp after doing some annoying Pokestar Studios that I should really press charges for (they won't let you leave a building unless you make a movie) and dealing with Team Plasma, I decided to head off towards Castelia city. However, I encountered the same issue that I did when I headed off towards Virbank - I am underleveled. So I decided to return to Virbank and Audino grind my team a bit.

I really hope I don't have to do this for every time I enter a new area...

**Paladin of Arceus** · 15th October 2012, 4:02 AM

Pally's (Dis)Accomplishments! Post 4

Acc: Cleared Victory Road and the League with no trouble. A team of Lv.100's will do that. :\
Acc: Explored around to each town and city in the post-E4 sections.
Acc: Transferred all my Pokémon (except for my two complete collections of all 28 shapes of Ruins of Alph and Solaceon Ruins Unown) from HeartGold and Platinum, used my White1 to teach some of them new moves and attach some held items.
Dis: Now I'll have to restart and recomplete my HG and Pt games...
Acc: Caught the Muskedeers and Legendary Dragons, fused for my very own White Kyurem.
Dis: Stuck pretty solidly on the puzzle to unlock Regirock. Nine steps right and [circle] steps down from the eyeball? I don't even know what they mean by "the eyeball..." :S
Dis: Still haven't done anything with the Strange House, but I transferred over my Cresselia from Pt, so I don't need the catchable one in W2.
Dis: I also have a Latias transferred from HG and the Pixie trio and Heatran from Pt, so I don't need the catchable ones within W2.
Dis: I DO, however, need to catch the Regi Quads, so I need to complete these puzzles and get the other key from B2 to finish my Legendary collection.
Dis: I REALLY wish I had either WiFi for Genesect, or a way to reliably get to my nearest Gamestop in time for giveaways like Keldeo. I'd love to fill that last slot in my Legends! PC box.
Acc: Prepping to take on the powered-up form of the League. It should be almost as easy as before, except they give more money and can occasionally do damage to my team.

**TotalPotato** · 15th October 2012, 4:35 AM

Having lots of fun so far! I just got my seventh Gym Badge. I didn't really plan to get the Pokémon I did (I seriously didn't expect to use four Unova Pokémon), but the team has been really fun so far.

**Aquarelle** · 15th October 2012, 4:53 AM

I visited the Strange House today. After making my way through all of the rooms, I found the Lunar Wing and then left. I then headed into Reversal Mountain. Bianca was there, and she teamed up with me. I did a lot of training in there and got around half of my team to level 45. I also managed to catch an Excadrill after many tries because Bianca kept screwing me over. >_<

When I found the exit, I ended up in Undella Town. My rival showed up and battled me. He was pretty easy to defeat since he only had three Pokemon. Now, I'm just focusing on raising the levels of my Pokemon, then I'll start heading towards Lacunosa Town.

**Chimchar15** · 15th October 2012, 6:25 AM

Finally got around to making a good length through the game this weekend dispite working all week. I finished up business in Opelucid City and I must say I love the shadow triad. I'm now in Humilau City and I'm going to fight Marlon. I feel my Pokemon are a little underleveled mid to late 40's but when I grinded I beat the other leaders with little effort so hopefully this will give me more of a challenge.

**Excitable Boy** · 15th October 2012, 6:48 AM

Spoiler:- Previous post:

Well. I made it. May as well recount the warstories, then.

Vs. Marshal: Apollo 18 took out his Throh and Mienshaoand enabled Sawk's Sturdy, but got OHKOed by the returning Payback. Brought in Flood to make Marshal use his Full Restore, ate a Brick Break, and made the KO. Used The Else to fight Conkeldurr, two Screeches and an Acrobatics sent him on his way (he Bulked Up and missed with Stone Miss).

-

Vs. Grimsley: Led with Flood and X-Scissored his Liepard. It lived, making him waste his Full Restore and allowing me to do another one and KO with Aqua Jet. Used John Henry against Krookodile, tried to stack Bulk Ups, but his second Earthquake got a crit and KO'd me. Flood ate an Earthquake, got down to about 30ish HP, KO'd with Surf. Used The Else against Scrafty, Revival Herbed Conkeldurr, took the Crunches, and brought him down with Acrobatics. Ended up keeping The Else against Bisharp, ate the Night Slash with 29 HP to spare, OHKO'd with Sky Uppercut.

-

Vs. Shauntal: Started off with Lincoln, Thunderbolt paralyzed. Ate a crit Shadow Ball that dropped SpD, finished it with Flash Cannon. Swapped to Flood to fight Golurk, one-shotted with Surf. For Drifblim, went back to Lincoln, Thunderbolt did it in. Against Chandelure, it's Flood again. Didn't know it had Energy Ball, went into very low health, defeated it with Surf.

-

Vs Caitlin: Led with Lincoln again, Flash Cannoned, got Yawned, brought in Flood, Yawned on the switch. X-Scissor brought it to red, Yawned again, fell asleep. Casteliaconed while she Full Restored. Two more X-Scissors put in red again while I got Yawned twice more. Woke up with Casteliacone while she tried to Dream Eater, nailed it with Aqua Jet. Made the mistake of keeping Flood in on Gothitelle, paid the price in his OHKO by Thunderbolt. Went back to Lincoln. She Calm Minded and Psychiced me, I Flash Cannoned her. Managed to defeat Gothitelle. Against Reuniclus, sacced The Else to her Psychics to deliver a Screech and Revive Flood, then sent out Flood to OHKO with X-Scissor. Pit Lincoln against Sigilyph, ate a crit Psychic, OHKO'd with Thunderbolt.

And there I was. One fight left. Dat Champion. To recap my party member's accomplishments:

Flood: General awesomeness, being reliable, scoring kills on like half their 'mons, MVP by far
Lincoln: Having reliable defenses and typing to combat Shauntal and Caitlin, hitting hard with his STABs, just being overall broken
Mink Car: Absolutely nothing
Apollo 18: Made mincemeat out of many of Marshal's 'mons, didn't do anything else
John Henry: Tried to make him useful for the Grimsley fight, got haxed and it didn't work, so nothing
The Else: Actually really good, made for a valuable hit-taker against Marshal and Grimsley, pulled off a couple of good kills, did a great service against Caitlin, probably 3rd MVP after Lincoln

Took my gulp of nervousness, broke out the healing items, and rode that elevator. It was our time now, all of us. The final battle between good and not-me. I travelled to the center, and pressed that crucial button. A. What is meant by A? Affirmative. Affirming all that I stood for, all that I had accomplished in a button press. A.

I rode that elevator down. Down to where the dragons roamed. Down to where the final moment awaited. Down to my toughest challenge yet. Down to where all that I had dreamed of waited. And then... I walked up. Up to my moment of glory, up to Andy Warhol's fifteen minutes of fame. Up to where all that I had would be on display. Up to where my stuff was to be strutted. Up to where my legacy would be forged.

Down, and then up, to a Pokefight.

---

Awesome vs. Iris

Hydreigon time. Lead with John Henry. Takes a Dragon Pulse, loses a little over half his health, OHKOs with Hammer Arm. You overgrown concrete-lifting clown, you, this is what you was born to do, to one-shot evil three-headed demon hydra dragon lizards owned by champion space princesses. Hell yeah.

Druddigon. Need to save Flood for later, so this is on Lincoln. Supersonic succeeds, but confusion fails and he gets hit with Focus Blast. Not much health left, but may as well Thunder Wave for parafuse. She snaps out of confusion, Focus Blasts... misses. Sac Lincoln and Flash Cannon some half health out of it. May as well bring on the Flood. Ice Beam for the finish. Score is 5-4.

Lapras now. With Lincoln out of commission, I have no good response to this. Ultimately, Apollo 18 ends up taking on the duty of stalling this out for a bit. Revival Herb Lincoln while she Sings me and Hyper Potion John Henry while she Surfs me. Sorry, Apollo 18, but she has no Fighting types for you to feast on, and god knows I can't put Mink Car or The Else in here. Surf does a little less than half, so I Casteliacone Apollo 18 while Lapras Surfs him again. Manage to land a Psyshock for almost half her health while Apollo 18 dies to Ice Beam. Go for it, Lincoln! Lincoln, distraught by its brother's sacrifice, brings the vengeance with Thunderbolt. Score is 5-3.

Aggron? John Henry bait. Lose about a quarter health to Double-Edge, irrelevant Rocky Helmet damage, OHKO with Hammer Arm. God bless you, John Henry. May God bless you and your mighty, hammer-like arms of Fighting-typeness. May God bless you for making the score 5-2, my favor.

Archeops. We're getting close now. This is where Flood makes his true, grand entrance. Aqua Jet once to activate Defeatist, take pittance from Rock Slide, 2nd Aqua Jet for the KO. Beautiful. Simply beautiful.

Here it is, ladies and gents. The ace. The queen. The one. The only. The Hax 'r' Us. Sporting a 540 BST and a level that rivals Flood's own (he's 61 now from the League Exp., she's 59), she's too skilled to be confuse-haxed like her counterpart in Opelucid. She's mean. She's tough. She's got powerful Dragon moves that'll sweep me away if I'm not careful. I may be winning 5-1, but she's got three Full Restores at the ready, and Dragon Dance is in her moveset.

This is the moment when the two girls look each other in the eyes (probably, but idk, I was eating a bagel. Or was it a donut?). The moment when their two ace Pokemon meet on the field of battle, each ready to show its respective moves, each ready to claim the victory for the one who brought them here. Awesome looks to Flood. He nods toward his seamitars (sic?). Awesome smiles. She knows he's got this. Iris draws her final Poke Ball. Within it, an axe-faced lizard with unspeakable power in its claws rests. The white button is pressed, and a red light flashes out, materializing...

Haxorus.

She breaks the mold. That much can be said. The mold? Oh, it's broken. She means business. Iris, in her own words, will hone her mind and become one with her Pokemon. Though it sounds creepy, I don't doubt her resolve. She starts with a Dragon Dance. A bold choice, but only the beginning of what could be to come. In a moment of rashness/misclicking, Awesome calls for an X-Scissor. Unwise? Yes, but Flood, hesitant but faithful, acknowledges and manages to land a crucial critical hit, healing off some of the previous Rock Slide thanks to his Shell Bell. The Haxorus's health is down to about 6/10ths. We can win this.

An Earthquake. Awesome cringes as Flood's health bar drops. Lower, past the halfway point. It stops at 59 of 207, a drop of 124 Hit Points, or a loss of almost 60%. A brutal hit, but to Flood's credit, he bears it stoically. Bellowing a mighty roar, the sea otter samurai charges an Ice Beam in its mouth. The space princess and the axe-faced dragon sweatdrop. Flood fires.

It is a KO. F*ck yeah.

I am now the Champion of the Unova region.

F*ck yeah.

**jwla** · 15th October 2012, 7:01 AM

I haven't done a lot in a couple days, aside from some Dream Radar stuff (Tornadus and Thundurus caught!), and beat the trainers along routes 1, 2 and 3. I have done a few trades so I can get my Unova Dex (seen) filled up. I got a Lopunny (so I can breed Buneary) and a Mandibuzz (for Vullaby). I am trying to get a Dewott in trade, as well. I caught a Vulpix, but don't have a Fire Stone! -_- Ugh! Now I need to see which Pokemon I need to see.

**Fire Hero** · 15th October 2012, 10:27 AM

After some training, both in levels and in strategy, finally went to challenge Skyla again, this time Swanna gave me no trouble at all, as Emboar's Return was strong enough to win the match. Thanks to its decent bulk, Bubblebeam and Air Slash didn't KO it so I was able to defeat Skyla and earn my 6th badge.

Right now I'm finding my team a little underleveled. I caught a Lv.35 Camerupt in the double grass near Reversal Mountain, so now my team is complete. Litwick was raised until Lv.41 and evolved, just in time to take advantage of the Dusk Stone found in Strange House, which means, Chandelure is born ^^

Currently I'm on training in the double grass again before entering the mountain. The wild Pokémon levels almost match my own so it's a nice place. Growlithe is starting to have trouble due to being NFE, but with Eviolite it can grab some KO's. I'll evolve it once it reaches Lv.45 but I hope it occurs soon. I'm still divided between Extremespeed and Thunder Fang for Arcanine as I'm keeping Flare Blitz, Outrage and Crunch for coverage. Thunder Fang is only useful for Waters, because otherwise, STAB Flare Blitz is stronger than super-effective Thunder Fang. However, a water gym and the trouble I had with Swanna makes me think that Thunder Fang is more useful for this team.

Once my team reaches Lv 40-42, I'll enter the Reversal Mountain and explore the home of the legendary Heatran ^^

Current team:

Scorch Lv.42 (M)
- Flame Charge
- Blast Burn
- Return
- Bulldoze (changing to Hammer Arm maybe)

Apollo Lv.40 (M)
- Flamethrower
- Flame Wheel
- Crunch
- Dig

Abyss Lv.39 (M)
- Flare Blitz (best animation ever!)
- Bulldoze
- Hammer Arm
- Headbutt

Symphonia Lv.39 (F)
- Will-O-Wisp
- Fire Spin
- Signal Beam
- Gust

Lights Lv.41 (F)
- Will-O-Wisp
- Flame Burst
- Hex
- Inferno

Desert Lv.39 (M)
- Lava Plume
- Earth Power
- Rock Slide
- Strength

@a person: Very nice battle descriptions ^^ Flood's the boss.

**Mr SPYDA** · 15th October 2012, 10:31 AM

Current team :

Swampert lvl 39

Scizor lvl 37

**7 tyranitars** · 15th October 2012, 11:02 AM

After decending down the mountain I defeated my rival and Undela town. I went south and defeated all the trainers there. Then I went to the northern route and made my way to Lacunosa Town, where I learned a bit about the town and defeated one of those Sages. I went to Route 12 where I got a Rosalia. I defeated all the trainers there and went to the Village bridge. Which was a great place to get a couple of levels. I went to Route 11 that is where I got Rosalia to level 40 I decided that it would be a good level to evolve Rosalia into a Roserade.

Team:

Samurott Level 44
-Slash
-Revenge
-Surf
-Blizzard

Ampharos Level 42
-Discharge
-Fire Punch
-Confuse Ray
-Power Gem

-Strength

Growlithe Level 42

-Refersal

Vibrava Level 42

-Venoshock

JD · 15th October 2012, 11:49 AM

I Beat Black Version 2. I guess now it's time for me to transfer most of my guys from Black Version over I think I'm going to aim to get that Shiny Haxorus now.

Current Team

Samurott 60
Jolteon 60
Lucario 60
Unfezant 59
Roserade 59
Unfezant 59

Also I put it on Challenge Mode.. so I guess I'll just do a little exploring and training and then I'll go get all the legendary Pokemon.

**Buuz** · 15th October 2012, 12:12 PM

I just arrived at Mistralton City. Juniper went to Celestial Tower, Skyla went back to the gym and i am taking a rest at the pokémon center. My team is now:

Samurott
Infernape
Meganium
Keldeo, all of these somewhere between lv.36 and lv.38
Vibrava, lv.41

However, i am thinking about replacing Keldeo with Eelektross. When i fought an Archen yesterday it K.O.'ed Monferno and Meganium, it was then that i realized three of my pokémon are weak to flying types. So yeah, that's why Keldeo has to make room for Eelektross. That sixth spot is already taken btw, i'm gonna catch a Pawniard and evolve it into Bisharp.

**Star Champion AJ** · 15th October 2012, 1:29 PM

Episode 8: Roxie time!
Went to the club/Gym where Clyde gave me another Fresh Water.
Didn't like the Gym's theme this time, the Japanese Version was better (I want to know if the German Version includes Smogons).
Faced Roxie's partners, while dulling out the music.
After silencing Roxie's band members, I got scared by Roxie's shout and battled her.

vs

, started the battle (again) with Oshawott who managed to endure Koffing's Tackles and Assurances while defeating with with a well-timed Return.

vs

(add DAT EPIC music), Returned once, but Whirlipede's Poison Point activated and fainted the sea otter with a boosted Venoshock.

vs

, Growlithe's Ember finished the battle in a very anti-climatic way.
Got the Toxic Badge (2 obtained, 6 to go) and TM09 (Venoshock)

Episode 9: Pokéstar Studios Part I
After getting my second Gym Badge, went to the Pokéstar Studios, because the Captain (Pop Roxie) was there and I needed to go to Castelia City.
Met Stu Deeoh and was LITERALLY FORCED to get a tour guide (Seriously, I like to explore on my own!), not to mention I had to watch the most boring movie ever (Roxie's dad is a really bad actor!)
After the movie, I was EVEN MORE FORCED to participate in the same movie as Pop Roxie, however I acted a lot better than the Captain.
While making the movie, I met the Movie Star Brycen (he was Brycen-Man, Riolu-Kid's villain in the movie), who was Unova's Gym Leader two years ago (and I REALLY want to find out what happened to Lenora).
Watched the movie and people said encore and liked my act.
I got scripts for four more movies and since I'm not in a hurry (Hugh may be, but that's of no importance to me), I'll do them (not to mention I can score a few Medals for the Rally).

@a person You got some nice badass (and epic) descriptions there.

**Tommyb2405** · 15th October 2012, 2:07 PM

Popped into Chargestone Cave to train up for the battle against Clay. Came across a Joltik that once belonged to N... didnt know it at the time though. So i caught it and retured to training. After beating Clay and doing the PWT, i re-entered Chargestone Cave and made my way to the exit. Right before leaving another one of N's pokemon appeared, this time a Ferroseed. so i decided to catch that too

Question... Will these pokemon that belonged to N, level up quicker?

**FireEmblemAddict** · 15th October 2012, 2:12 PM

Last night was legendary catching night.
I made my way around Iccirus, Clay Road, Twist Mountain, Route 8, Moor of Iccirus, Route 15 and Black City, transferring over 60 Pokemon from my 4th gen games. Then I went hunting for legends.
Zekrom, Kyurem, Azelf, Mesprit, Regirock, and Registeel were all captured with relative ease. The Regis put up a better fight on my White 2 version (took me over 60 balls to get each!) but last night no legendary took over 10. Oh well.

Now I'm in Pinwheel Forest. Time to finish exploring the routes and towns of Unova!

Team:
-Robyn the Emolga lv 73
-Truck the Tyranitar lv 74
-Linemile the Flygon lv 73
-Starmie *shiny* lv 74
-Egoist the Roserade lv 73
-Kirikizan the Bisharp lv 74
