Well, I haven't received mine yet, but I am doing a mono-type Challenge so it will be evolved into Vaporeon. In the future though I would like to try for Espeon/Umbreon. I remember in Gen II that I was always so frustrated that I couldn't ever seem to get Eevee to evolve. I played SS before...

Hands down Clannad Afterstory and Voices of a Distant Star :(

Well, I'm going to get in character for this one! Ahem... My name is Ailani and I've just started my adventures in the Johto region! I'm from New Bark town and this evening I received my first Pokemon from Professor Elm in exchange for doing him a favour. I chose the water type, Totodile, or...

Well, I took a hiatus from Pokemon for several years throughout highschool. Gold was probably the last version that I truly loved. I've never played the next generation. Then a few years ago I bought a DS, saw a Pokemon game and decided to pick it up as one of my first games. That was...

That is awesome, 'nuff said :pink_disbelief: I'm enjoying reading all the replies, keep em coming :)

Do you name him/her after your real name, or a nickname you have? Do you sit back and think about what you would like to name your character (i.e. invent a name for them)? Have your character nicknames ever changed? Have you ever used the names that were suggested in the game? ----------...

I don't much like the sprite for BW myself either LeSabre. I would have to say my favourite is Platinum from the versions I own. SS would probably be my second but the giant hat is so horrible sometimes! Thank you very much! So far I am enjoying myself. I've had a bunch of people add me and...

Personally I'd prefer them to stay on the DS. Actually, it's my understanding that the 3DS was a big let down and isn't that popular. That's what I've heard online anyways. So I really don't know.

If it was Canada we could just say the healing fees come out of the tax dollars :pink_giggle: I do like your idea though, it would just add something else for players to do in game.

I'm not super far in the game, so I am sure that my opinion will change. For me the most difficult obstacle is Chargestone Cave. It just goes on and on and on! And the wild Pokemon are relentless. Then when you finally get to the bottom you have to fight tons of team Plasma trainers. I've...

Thank you! Such a shame to hear that your cartridge doesn't save anymore LeSabre, I cry for you :pink_cry: I've been exploring, lots of great things here to keep me occupied which is great. I was afraid that it would be like communities that I've joined in the past where I got bored on the...

I read through a lot of the posts again and thought that the idea that because dragon's are seen as sacred in the Japanese culture that, that was why they were chosen. This got me thinking... I believe I read somewhere that there is a sacred animal for each of the cardinal points in Japanese...

Thank you for the responses everyone. I ended up going for it, my levels were probably 1 higher for each Pokemon. Partway through battling the gym trainers, Sandile evolved so that really helped out. Still it was a pretty close battle, I nearly lost! :pink_tongue:

Thank you everybody for the warm welcome. It's great to know that there is a community here that is around my age! Everybody so far has been extremely nice and as this community is quite large and diverse, I've been online all afternoon enjoying it.

Well I think that travelling like that is possible in some cases. Take Japan for example, from what I understand travelling by train is economical and because it is small you can go quite far. And backpackers do it all the time in Europe right? They stay in hostels or use those couch surfing...
