  • Called Bugsy for a rematch today~ I'm trying to collect all the Gym Leaders in the Fighting Dojo, so I haven't fought anyone yet. I'm gonna bring Absol back into my PokeWalker soon. Oh, and if I can find any of my friends around with a DS soon, start breeding Eevees, trade them to Platinum to evolve them, and then trade them back. :"D I want a Glaceon named Fai or Fay (I need to figure out which~) and an Umbreon named (you should guess~)

  • Today, I got Erika's number, got three more Gym Leader rematches, and I got to see how awesome the new E4 was. Will (my Xatu) suffered the most KOs, with 6 total. Thank goodness I stocked up on Revives. -w- I also beat my personal Speed record in the Pokeathlon because my new record on the Hurdle Dash is 88.7 seconds. I'm very pleased with how Kumori (Absol), Path (Linoone), and Doris (that Dodrio you get in the trade with that girl in Blackthorn City for the female Dragonair) did the dashes. ALSO I BEAT MY RELAY RUN RECORD WITH 19.2 LAPS. <3 <3 <3 I love these three, but I hope to replace Doris with my own Pokemon. She did a good job though~

    Trying desperately to breed a perfect IV Eevee - I've bred other species with the same goal and very quick results, but the Eevee is giving me hell. I think I have 11 with phenomenal IVs, just not perfect

  • Once i got to Cianwood City i went up against Chuck. OHKO on Primeape, Poliwrath was a bit hard but no trouble. Then wasted no time in hopping over to Olivine City to OHKO Jasmine completely. Feraligatr for win :)

    Now i have the red Gyarados, don't think i'll use it though.

    After a lot of select totodile breeding(adamant nature, aqua jet), I managed to get my hands on an attack IV croconaw, and bred his attack IV's in.
    Now I have 2 adamant aqua jet totodiles with 30 attack IV's, and 1 with 30 speed IV's as well(random!)

  • I beat the E4 yesterday, as well as evolve my Gloom and Poliwhirl into Bellossom and Politoed. (Did I mention how cute Politoed's back sprite is?)
    I just need to get badges from Green/Blue, Brock, and Blaine. Then I have to mega level grind to battle Red, because my pokemon are all about level 49-ish.

  • After taking on the upgraded Elite Four, I finally gained enough confidence to go take on Red. I took two trips through Mt. Silver: to use the Dowsing Machine and get items, the second to go straight to Red. I came up with a great strategy: Put Riley at the lead of the team so that the Sandstorm would cancel out the Hail. Of course, I'd heard that Diamond Dust weather doesn't mean Hail, but I didn't want to wait. My team was all level 73-78, and finished at levels 74-79. The Sandstorm only backfired on Jasmine, but I used a Max Revive. It finished off Snorlax and Lapras, combined with Whitney's Toxic, so it worked out very well.

    So after this victory of mine, I went to Professor Oak to get a female Charmander named Belita and went to Steven in Silph to get a male Treecko named Jotav. (Yes, I like my random names.)

    I also beat my personal Speed Record again with 42 Pennants, and replaced Doris with Jotav (as a Grovyle, since I only use overachieving-5-Star Speed specialists.) I'm figuring out how to make my own Aprijuice too:
    -Green = Jump
    -Pink and Red = Speed
    -Yellow = Stamina
    -Black = Power
    -Blue = Skill
    At least this is what's worked for me. I have no idea what White does. I'll figure all this out eventually~

    So, now I'm going to go talk to Mr. Pokemon and get the orb that'll let me go see Kyogre. I think I'll make modifications to the Safari Zone too, so that I'll be able to catch a Riolu later.

    And then this week, I'll work on getting Blue's number and getting more rematch calls.

    Well, I got ripped off with a togepi with hustle and with a adamant nature on my Soul Silver. Fortunetly my togepi is female and I have a male hoothoot so I can get a serene grace togepi later in the game.

  • Ok. I just finished getting my eight badge and defeating the kimor girls. After that I went to the whirl's island and I couldn't find lugia. Does anyone know which whirl's island to go to? There are four of them. I couldn't find which one to go in. Man I spend endless hours on this game.

  • Well I had no need to get a Riolu from the Safari Zone. Instead I traded a Manaphy via GTS for a Lucario, then bred for a female. Her name is Kamasque. After training ALL NIGHT (I only got 2 hours of sleep @.@), she evolved at level 21 since evolving her once it turned daytime would be easy. I also got on the S.S. Anne today and talked to the Captain, who gave me a Flame Plate. Hm...him mentioning going to Sinnoh just makes my fanfic easier to write! <3

    Well, I figure that I may use Kamasque for Power events in Pokeathlon, but using her as a Riolu was better for Speed. |3 Oh well...

    I also traded Steven a Forretress for his Beldum, Lt. Surge a Viridian-Forest-Pikachu for his French Pikachu, and bred my Sudowoodo for a Bonsly to trade with Brock later today. After going on the S.S. Anne and leveling up Kamasque like crazy, she's level 52 now. I'll definitely make her into a battler though, just because Lucario are cool. I need to work on Togepi now...

    Today I'm happy. I hatched a Chikorita with 31 IVs in each stat. I thought it would have taken me longer but I guess I was lucky. :]

  • I beat Red. With my careful strategizing, I manage to beat his team with four Pokemon. Took out his Pikachu with Garchomp's Earthquake, Electivire took out Lapras with two Thunder Punches, wasn't much of a problem against his Blastoise either, with one Close Combat from Infernape, Snorlax is down, took out Charizard with Feraligatr's Hydro Cannon, and finally, Infernape's Blast Burn to finish the job against his Venusaur. Yup. It was quite easier than I thought.

    Afterwards, I got Charmander from Oak and Treecko from Steven and finally got the Blue Orb from Mr. Pokemon to prepare catching Kyogre.
