Haven’t had much time for video games because of college, but I’m into the Pokemon Gen II remakes at the moment. I’ve mainly been playing my French copy of HeartGold, where I’m about to go for my sixth badge. I’ve also been playing a bit of the Donkey Kong Land games on my 3DS. I really need to...

-I level grind. Big-time. -I always keep my starter, and it's usually my most-used team member. -Whenever I get a new Pokemon on my team, I usually drop everyting I’m doing, and go level it up until its level is close to or matches that of the rest of my team. -I always name my Eevee...

While playing Super Mario All-Stars (Wii) this afternoon, I was blown up by one of Mouser's bombs in World 1-3 of Super Mario Bros. 2.

I was born the same year the NES came out here. Sadly, I didn't get into video games until the mid 1990s, so my first system was the Game Boy, and my first console was the N64 (though I played a little NES and SNES at other people's houses beforehand). I kind of wish I had gotten into video...

Uggh... Morty. His Gengar's Shadow Ball made short work of my entire team. I can't remember exactly how I beat this guy in my last file, but I think it involved a couple of lucky hits... Surprisingly, Whitney wasn't much trouble for me. I went into the battle with Quilava, Croconaw, Skiploom...

I recently turned 25... I'm one of the ones who has been into the games since the days of Red and Blue, and I'm looking forward to the release of Black and White. These games just don't get old with me. :) A group of my friends and I play Pokemon regularly, and we're all pretty close to the...

Old PMD (Red Version): Tia – Charmander Azalea – Pikachu Team Dream Duo No real meaning to this one, I just thought it sounded catchy. PMD: Explorers of Time Flara – Cyndaquil (F) Cherri – Chikorita (F) Team Star-Lite (formerly Starlite) I just picked the name because it sounded nice, and...

There was this Ace Trainer on Route 1 with a Starmie. It creamed Lapras and Vileplume with some attacks I can’t even remember, and only went down after Espeon took it out with Shadow Ball. I really should have been using Espeon in the first place… Also, Lance. His Aerodactyl wiped the floor...

Lance and his bloomin’ Aerodactyl. That Pokemon was even tougher than Morty’s Gengar, if that’s possible. This thing wiped out two-thirds of my team (the only survivors being Ampharos and Ursaring). Lapras and Typhlosion were unable to land a single attack, because they always seemed to flinch...

In Explorers of Time: Player: Cyndaquil - Flara Partner: Chikorita - Cherri Team Name: Star-Lite Both Pokemon on my team are female, though their names kind of give it away...

Regular Trainers: That duo on Route 47 with the Magmar and Electabuzz. I had Lapras (who was weak against electric attacks) and Flaaffy out, and they were paralyzed within minutes. Fortunately, Flaaffy managed to paralyze both Electabuzz and Magmar, too. Both of them hung on for a while, but I...

Here's my current team after beating the Rocket Hideout in Mahogany Town (HeartGold): Gloom - Level 32 - Female In my old Crystal game, I always evolved Gloom into Bellossom. This time around, I'm going with Vileplume instead. I've already got a Leaf Stone ready, but I'm waiting until she grows...

Attract didn’t pose an issue for me, since I had my Level 24, female Quilava handle the entire battle. It was weak against Rollout, but it had also just learned Defense Curl. While Clefairy (who I didn't consider a threat compared to Miltank) was out, I used Defense Curl over and over to build...

I'm about to start into a major grind-fest in HeartGold, actually. I caught a Lapras a couple of hours ago, and I need to get its level up to speed with the rest of my main team. Also, I'm trying to raise that Eevee I got from Bill - at the moment, it's only at Level 9, so I'm taking it on a...

Progress: I’ve made it to the Gym Leader in the Azalea Town gym, but my DS was about to croak, so I had to save and plug it into the charger. I one-shotted pretty much everyone in that Gym. In other news, I finished off Slowpoke Well, flattened my rival, and rounded up the two Farfetch’d in the...
