I really like Solaceon Town. Part of it is probably because I spend way too much time there, but it's also just a nice town. And I really like the name Solaceon. It makes me think of the word Solace, which is a neat word and has to do with comfort.

I am trying to get an Electivire that I've bred myself, and of course that means I have to have an Electirizer. So I look around, and it turns out that Pearl has a 5% chance of getting one on the already painfully annoying Elekid (I spent way too long getting the first Elekid to even show up)...

There are some Pokemon that are just not as good as other pokemon for the same role. If you were going for a team of underused Pokemon, then I guess there could be exceptions made. But I think that some Pokemon just don't fill a niche as well as others.

I have Porygon, and I've had the Up-Grade and the Dubious Disc for weeks. Whoever can help me get this trade done, preferably tonight, is a person I will love forever. If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it. My AIM screen name is "hamster bouquet" (minus the quotes, of course)...

My little brother, who would never sell his cards at his current age (10), got a present from me yesterday on a whim. I got him a booster pack of D/P cards, and he got a holographic Manaphy. I've already told him he shouldn't trade it, but I'm wondering what that's worth right now. I don't...

I agree, this generation will definitely last for quite some time. Maybe in all the extra time they'll come up with more ideas as to what to make for Generation V, if there is to be one.

I keep pondering this, ever since I started looking into the release of Diamond and Pearl. So here we have a decent amount of new Legendary Pokemon, in particular Arceus. From what I've read, Arceus is based off of Pangu, an equine legend/deity of sorts. In the Canalave library, that book...

I use my Staravia for Fly, currently, and Machop for Strength, Rock Climb, Rock Smash. Cut is always a toss-up. I just use the HM slaves when I need them, I try to avoid using anything but Fly at all times.

I used mine on Cresselia, because I spent way too long on Mesprit to do it twice. I then ported mine in from Sapphire, and I think I'll be saving it. I live pretty close to D.C., and so I'm going to try my best to catch an event that will let me get what it takes for Arceus or something, and...

I leveled a Sableye in Leaf Green to give it Mean Look and then brought it over to Pearl. The advantage of Sableye is that it is immune to Confusion, which Mesprit has and will use. For whatever reason, the mechanics of Future Sight will still allow it to hit Dark pokemon, but I would just...

You should have an Amulet Coin lying around somewhere. Find some trainers that give a decent amount of cash and also have Pokemon that you can OHKO easily. Give one of the Pokemon you'll use the Amulet Coin, and use the VS Seeker. Lather, Rinse, Repeat. In Fire Red, if I ever wanted coins I...

If you just want to beat the story with an electric type, choose Luxio. It's going to be a decent asset for your team the whole way through, and it has the benefit of doing well with Bite/Crunch, whereas I think Pichu/Pikachu/Raichu don't get any Dark-type moves. As others have said, though...

In Fire Red and Leaf Green, every time you used it, any trainer on screen was up for the challenge. In Diamond and Pearl, each trainer is kinda choosy. Sometimes, if you want all three on screen to want to battle you again, you might get all three, two, one, or none. It's frustrating, but I...

I've now done a trade of a level 20 Shieldon from the Museum for a level 20 Cranidos. That was a trade I wanted to get out of the way anyway.

In all my Underground adventures, I've only come up with one Fire stone. It's pretty frustrating.
