Haven't posted in a while

--Got my fifth and sixth badges. So happy to be able to Fly now!
--My Eeevee is level 22 and still not evolved into Espeon =(.
--Had two sightings of Suicune.
--Caught Red Gyrados..a female =).
--Getting ready to go to Rocket's Hideout and basically training, training, training.

[Ultimate Glalie]

OMG, this Zapdos... It was on 1 HP and it was asleep. I used 40 Ultra Balls, 40 Great Balls and about 15 Timer Balls, and didn't catch it. =/

[jolteonjak]

Wow…2 weeks since my last update! Let’s see if I can remember matchups.

Here goes:

• Got myself a Jolly Shiny Gyrados.
• Went into the TR base.
• Evolution! Swine -> Piloswine
• Evolution! Swine -> Mamoswine (sweet!)
• TR base complete. Off to the Radio Station and my most hated part of Pokemon GS/HGSS…the Goldenrod Underground Puzzle (you know what I mean).
• Evolution! Quill -> Bakufuun (Typhlosion is such a stupid name!)
• The Rocket Execs are defeated! Now I can continue!
• In my own version of Nice Pryce Baby I battled Pryce. Beacn vs Seel; Pyper vs Dewgong; Quill vs Piloswine (I think) – won
• Left Mahogany town finally and went to the Ice Cave. Got Waterfall and taught it to Syah. Kabuki girl confused me for a moment.
• Trained my team to get them all to level 40.
• Showdown against Clair! Beacn vs Gyrados; Swine vs Dragonair; Quill vs Dragonair; Syah vs Kingdra (go go Water Absorb) - won
• Trying to train my team to level 45.
• Struggling to get Lugia to stay in a Pokeball period let alone try to get a desirable nature. Is it too light for Heavy Balls? Think I’ll have to invest in Dusk Balls yet again!
• Been playing with Pokewalker. Got myself a Surf Pikachus (my first ever!) and some Flail Pikachus…only thing of note.

As of right now, here's my team:

Quill the Typhlosion - 40 Mild
Swine the Mamoswine - 40 Brave
Syah the Quagsire - 42 Quirky
Beacn the Ampharos - 43 Quiet
Batty the Crobat - 40 Jolly
Pyper the Espeon - 40 Modest

HMs the Furret - 15

Goals: Catch or kill (only if it comes alive again) Lugia. Train. Train. Train! Get a good False Swiper if necessary.

[Dragard]

Just caught a bunch of Ditto. The good ones were Modest, Timid and Naive natures. I also kept a Rash one to do some breeding later on with Water Spout Blastoise =D

I'm thinking of getting another Espeon right now, so the Timid Ditto will be great. On the subject of breeding, going from Goldenrod City and route were the Daycare is, is a little to short... This is gonna be a pain =[

Trying to catch a Male Vulpix so I can level him up to learn Extrasensory to pass it down to a Cyndaquil, but it isn't working out =/

[Juputoru]

I continue to toddle along at 1/10000th the pace the rest of you seem to be going on. Hurrah!

-Why hello there, RIVAL. I welcome you and your awesome music.
-I KNEW Bite would make Zubat useful!
-Oh Bayleef is NOT using synthesis >(
-Time to figure out how the game expects me to get Cut this time around. Probably the Farfetch'd thing again.
-Yep. It's a bit different from the original GSC, but I still gotta corner an annoying Farfetch'd.
-...okay, I did all there, where's my goddamn HM?
-There's a SECOND Farfetch'd? Why?
-HM Cut. Horray.
-Whoo, Headbutt. Croconaw shall learn Headbutt in place of that silly Scratch, oh yes it shall. And Headbutt animates like HM moves do now. Bleh.
-Oh look, another kimono girl. Pointless!
-Oh god she's asking me a question. But this is Pokemon, so it's impossible to answer wrong!
-ZUBAT! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING.
-I have no idea what just happened there, but Zubat didn't wander off with a stranger so all is well.
-I talked to Zubat and said yes to something and now it's angry at me. 8(
-Hello Kotone. Go away.
-No I don't need a goddamn tour of the daycare center.
-I apparently got something? None of the bag icons showed up, so probably just a phone number or something equally useless.
-I'm getting more stuff! Yay?
-I bet I have to wait four minutes for this policeman to be interested in a battle. Ah, the arbitrary "night" time of Pokemon.
-Oh my god, the new Game Corner looks so...Vegas. On the outside, anyway. Too its music is nowhere near as awesome as the Shinou Game Corner music. (admittedly, that IS a high standard to meet...)
-BIKE! BIKE! BIIIIIKE!
-Good thing there are FAQs all over or else I'd have no idea what the game was expecting me to do half the time, what with so many gyms requiring you to do something to open them now. ESPECIALLY with a quiz(which is undoubtedly insanely easy...if you know what the lady's saying)
-AHAHAHA THIS GYM TRAINER HAS A LV.9 POKEMON AHAHAHA
-And her last Pokemon is Lv.16. Welp.
-This gym continues to be too easy.
-Blah blah beat Whitney blah. Miltank's rollout kinda worried me, but mostly because I was too lazy to go buy more Super Potions and Revives before the fight.
-Time to blow all my money on Super Repels, Super Potions, a revive, and some ultra balls! And to sell off a bunch of TMs I'll never use. Hm, maybe I should sell off my regular old Pokeballs too...
-What is this strange tent? ...I'm being offered to teach something a move, I guess?
-OH! It's nickname dude! Well, I'm happy with my Pokemons' names, so no thanks.
-Let's go to the underground tunnel! Yay!!
-A Marril? ...oh, it's YOU. Go away.
-I got the accessory case. Horray.
-Hello there hilariously low-leveled trainers. I shall crush you with my Zubat. EXP FOR THE EXP GOD.
-Coin case get!
-And watering can get! Now to move onwards, towards the next hilariously easy gym!
-Hm, I want a Heracross, but I'd have to either hike back to the route between Azalea Town & the Union Cave OR wait until I can sneak into the route between Ecruteak & Mt. Mortar...I don't think anything would actually STOP me from going to that last one, so I might as well just keep on the usual route instead of doubling back.
-Whoo a whole FIVE hours of playtime! And just think, in that short time I got a Lv.23 Croconaw and a Lv.19 Zubat. *sniff*

[The 4th KIRA]

Today; not much to report I'm afraid

-Collected several Green Apricorns at various places. Took them over to Kurt's house.
-Went to the Tin Tower and plaey Sinnoh Sound to lure out a Chatot. Caught it with Dusk Ball. Nicknamed it Perap.
-Played Hoenn Sound near New Bark Town to lure out Plusle and near Pallet Town to lure out Minun.
-Went north to the Trainer House and fought the head trainer level 50 vs level 50.
-Saved in Pewter with 156 hours, 38 minutes of playtime.

[48Elmaxo16]

heart gold (second go around after SS):
finished route 38 (i think) and wondered as to why there were so many miltanks around... >miltankaphobiac right here< (damn attract...) saw suicune, beat esuine (spelling?) and then went and dud jasmine's gym after... that other guy.
Spotted suicune again, he physically assaulted me when he exited the trees... might sue later.

[shinycacnea]

Currently preparing for E4 in Soul Silver.

Decided to move a few items in from other games, namely blue and yellow flute. Went to clone them in my jap pearl to find that the cloning glitch doesn't work anymore. Looks like jap HG/SS contain a bugfix that downloads into the older jap D/P. Just as well I haven't connected my jap diamond to SS yet.

[TravoHyper]

Just popped in to say I just caught a Shiny Jigglypuff at my first time at the Safari Zone!!!!!


Named it Wiggy. IM SO HAPPY!

[Orphee]

Oh dear god, I got HM Surf and already defeated Morty in Ecruteak gym, I went to Route 38 looking for a Raticate/ Rattata for a Hm Slave (I dont have any water type pokemon) and all I found was Raikou!!
I caught it just with a Fast Ball, in the first turn. All my other pokemon were at Lv 28 (except my Sandshrew Lv 15)
I will send it to the box for use it later

[ijea4444]

Restarted my HG because it was really my "experimental" game. I traded my bulbasaur/torchic/eevee to my SS prior to restarting(evolving my eevee to umbreon in SS).And I TMd most of them. I traded them all over to my HG and started playing yesterday. Yesterday I stopped after beating Falkner.
-I went down to union cave, fighting all possible trainers on the way.

-Evolved bulbasaur and torchic in Union cave
-Beat the Slowpoke well
-Beat bugsy's scyther in one turn with Combusken's rock slide. And beat both of the Metapod/Kakuna w/Ivysaur because Combusken was already level 20.
-Beat Gastly and Zubat with Umbreon, and Bayleef with Ivysaur. Both were level 18 bu Ivysaur is modest w/STAB+ supereffective sludge bomb(90*1.5*2=270 Base Power).Bayleef didn't even last one turn.
