    Grinding is the best thing ever. I love doing it.

    That's what I spent most of my game time doing one night before bed. I leveled up most of my Pokemon enough so that they could stand a chance against Gym Leaders and whatever else.

    Jasmine was the first to be defeated. Sure, there were some problems with Steelix, but the amazing Cheese pulled through for the team. Chuck, on the other hand, was easier. Foolish did amazing, with back-up from Cheese.

    Made it to Mahogany Town, where the Red Gyarados was captured and the Team Rocket underground headquarters was (almost) taken down. I'm right now in the middle of the three Electrode fight.

    Also, my Pokemon caught PokeRus, so I infected a Magby that I'm trading over to my Pearl game for some EV training.

    Team:

    Rockster the Golem - level 34
    Machoke - level 33
    Foolish the Slowpoke - level 36
    CHEESE the Magnezone - level 33

  • Today I spent time breeding the original HeartGold team.
    Natalie and Riley were the only parents from this team, making Kureno. He's the youngest, however, being born a day after everyone else.
    Others were:
    Hiyoko: Parents Togetic and Togetic
    Kireme: Parents Teddiursa and Sandslash
    Rena: Parents Tangela and Oddish
    Inferno: Parents Pikachu and Eevee
    Zutori: Parents Xatu and Ditto (Therefore he's not very happy).

    So this'll make me satisfied because I really missed the other team. ^^;;

    I hope that today brings a swarm of something new~ I want a Ralts or a Buneary swarm soon. :"D

  • I recently started over in HeartGold and chose Cyndaquil as my starter. I've never had a Slowpoke on my team before so after I got to Azalea Town I went to Slowpoke Well and caught one. I got a funny reaction out of it when I talked to it! It said, "Ray started yawning. Almost...almost...nevermind."

    I know that Slowpoke doesn't have a good Speed stat but I'll work on that. I'm in Ecruteak City about to challenge the Gym Leader. After that it's on to Route 38!

  • I went on a catching spree last night, stayed up until about 4 in the morning doing so. First I caught Suicune with an alright nature (Timid), I was hoping for Modest but I was tired of catching it over and over. Then I activated the Latios "event". After I found out you can sort of land on the same route it does by going back and forth between 2 connected routes, I caught it without too much trouble. I don't think it's nature was great, but I also don't think you have much of a choice with roaming legendaries. :(

    So then I flew back to Johto to catch the other roaming legendaries. Raikou was easy to catch because I had already lowered it's health to red before. Entei was a pain though, because every time I tried to lower it's health to red my Gengar got a critical hit on it. x_x

    I eventually caught it, and though I feel accomplished for having a bunch of new pokemon I haven't caught since the original Gen2 (And never for Latios), but now it feels like there isn't much to do. I guess there's the Safari Zone and Pokethalon though.....

  • My quest to build my Pokedex up is still going quickly and efficiently. A few hours ago, I had a mere 48 Pokemon caught. Now, I just caught my 103rd. After a couple more catches, I'll turn my attention to training my main team a few more levels, then take on the Elite Four. My Johto adventure is coming close to its end. Aloha Kanto!

  • Ok, Falkner down. Next up...Bugsy.

    With just my Totodile, I knew I couldn't continue through the game solo. So I caught a lovely female Gastly named Echo and an awesome Geodude named Rocky (original, huh?).

    So, training my team I was able to defeat Sprout Tower using mainly Gastly. Then I went on to Falkner, using only Geodude and his Rock Throw.

    On to Azalea!

  • I've just gotten my Tryannitar to lvl 70 and Shiftry to lvl 40. They're part of my dream team:
    Mightyena

    Weavile
    Tyrannitar
    Shiftry
    Skunktank
    Absol

    Mightyena and Weavile reached lvl 100 last week. I tend to train my pokemon in pairs instead of a in a full party. Mightyena and Weavile were training partners. Tyrannitar and Shiftry are training partners and as soon at they hit their final lvl, my skunky and absol a will train together. I've also became very fond of Venus, my lovely Lopunny. She is currently on lvl 40 and is trained on the side. I'm going to whip Whitney's butt with my Venus :D

  • I started SoulSilver yesterday. I, er, ought to be finishing HeartGold, but...

    ● Chose a male sprite and named it Kell.
    ● Chose Chikorita at Elm's Lab. It's the only Johto Starter I've never used. I named him Leaf.
    ● Did the Mister Pokémon egg gumf. Named my Rival Dante. Started on my Epic Quest.

    ● Caught a Sentret and traded it with my Platinum game for a Pichu in an egg.
    ● He hatched in Cherrygrove City. I named him Spark.
    ● Headed to Violet City and beat Volkner using Volt Tackle. 8)
    ● Got my Togepi egg. It's since hatched and Togepi is now safely discarded in my PC Box. :U
    ● Headed to Azalea Town. Saved all of the Slowpokes. Defeated Bugsy.
    ● Chikorita evolved into Bayleaf!
    ● Defeated my Rival using only Leaf and Tackle. His Quilava apparently only knew SmokeScreen and Leer, lmfao? Ahh, Dante, you are not worthy of my rivalry.
    ● Went to GoldenRod. Got my pimpin' Radio Card. Picked up the three million packages my mom sent me at the PokéDepartment Store.
    ● Pichu evolved into Pikachu!
    ● Caught a Drowzee, and traded it with my Platinum game for a Level 17 Scyther, named Blades. (Spark and Leaf were already Level 21 by this time, so there was no level cheating. I didn't want to wait until Tuesday to be able to catch one in the Contest :|)
    ● Defeated Whitney using Spark and Blades. She cried. I stole a badge.

    ● Now en route to Ecruteak, but I have to go back for the damn squirt bottle >:

  • My in game team is up to level 100. Activated the Arceus event and the only legendary who needs to be caught is Rayquaza, which will have to wait till I can find a HG Kyogre on wi-fi.

    There's not much else I can do in the game now, sadly.

  • I think someone must have superglued me to my DSi, because I can't stop playing. >:[

    ● Caught Sudowoodo. Put him in the PC.
    ● Reached Ecruteak. Did the Rival battle in the Burned Tower, then headed out West to do some training before taking on Morty.
    ● Bayleaf evolved into Meganium!
    ● Took on Morty. Beat him with Spark using Volt Tackle and Meganium using Magical Leaf.
    ● Travelled to Olivine. Climbed the Lighthouse, got the mission from Jasmine. Rock-Smashed until I found a Krabby/because it's fun. Taught Krabby Surf.
    ● To Cianwood! Beat Chuck using only Blades and Wing Attack, woo. The nice lady gives me the Fly HM, so I got a Pidgey out from my PC box (always handy as HM slaves) and flew back to Olivine with the SecretPotion.
    ● Defeated Jasmine using only Meganium, lmao. Yeah idk either.
    ● Flew to the Safari Zone and trained Pikachu up to Level 37 to teach it Discharge, then Thunderstone'd him into a Raichu. Trained Meganium and Scyther up to Level 34.
    ● Flew to Route 218 and caught a Houndour at Level 24. Flew back to the Safari Zone grass-patch and trained him to Level 34.
    ● Houndour evolved into Houndoom!

    ● Now en route to Mahogony to deal with the Lake of Rage and Rocket Hideout.
