Mine are in the boxes however they end up there. I don't have time to arrange them all and to me I really don't care. The only box I keep organized is my egg box.

I play black2 and my sorting system is
TeamPkmn (all pokemon I use in my team)
Keep (pokemon I will keep, but not use, mainly for pokedex)
Trade (I do alot of trading now and have a box full of pokemon for trade)
Starters (name says it all)
Training (pokemon that NEED training)
Legends (short for legendaries)
Storage 1 and 2 (for any pokemon I have more than one of, mainly for the trade box really)
Quite simple really :D

I use lots of pokemon through the course of a game, so I'm constantly rummaging around in my boxes, rearranging my team.

Going from the first box to the right, I sort by quality, subdivided by special or physical if necessary. The first box is the first string pokemon - the ones I know I can count on - then it goes down from there, all the way to the junk I know I'm never going to use. Going from the last box to the left, I have duplicates, things I'm going to breed, things I've bred, extra eggs and babies and so on. Somewhere in the middle I have boxes for stuff I want to keep but am probably not going to use - preevos, shinies, legendaries, events and the like.

I don't sort my Pokemon in any particular order, I only just put them next to Pokemon I think look nice with them!

i usually jsut throw them in with no order in mind. however i usually have a box just for unknows. also in my SS i had a box for my "ultimate" team because i started to try and complete the pokedex and train loads to evolve them in the E4

When I do bother to sort out my Pokemon (I don't believe they are currently sorted in any game but Soul Silver) I usually went with the type method. Though, of course, there was the dual-typing crisis in which I just put then in one of the two types that they are. But in my Soul Silver I decided to go with what color the Pokemon was according to the dex. So when I went to my PC you would see a box full of white, a box full of blue, and so forth. It was a pretty interesting method in my opinion!

I really have no sorting method when I'm going through the game, especially when it comes to older games. I typically have one box for Legendarys and other novalty pokemon, and then everything else goes in the other boxes.

On Black 2 though where I've caught just about all of them; I have them sorted by their dex number

Unlike some people I know, I rename my boxes and just store them and stuff. But I always go biggest to smallest. That is something I will NEVER stop doing. xD

In Pokemon Diamond, I organized them based on their environments. In Black/White, I organized numerically.

In all games, I organize mine by level from highest to lowest. In the case of there being more than one on the same level, I organize by my personal preference (which has varying circumstances)
