How do you arrange your pc boxes?
 
How do you arrange your pc boxes? I arange them by type and the extra box is my box full of pokes I trade and offer.

Super Smash Kid January 24th, 2008 5:37 PM

I arrange them when there caught and leave them in that order.

2B a master January 24th, 2008 6:06 PM

won't it be hard to find a certain pokemon?

Supreme Dirt January 24th, 2008 6:10 PM

I arrange them by level, and use a seperate box for EV'd Pokemon, another for events, and a final one for Pokemon I find to be hacks. (stupid hacks...)

2B a master January 24th, 2008 6:12 PM

arranging them by level was my second choice of arrangement

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 24th, 2008 6:14 PM

Well since i have every form of all pkemon including burmy Arceus unown and deoxys i put them in order of evolution and i only have room for 1 extra pokemon at the moment, but before i put the in order of type from my faves to my least liked. I put the legends of the types in the first spot in each box

I have them in National Dex order took ages to do it but it looks cool, and it was easier to find out which pokemon i was missing.

yeh, it did but Serebii.net was a BIG help and i have all forum of each aswell so i have very little space left (i only need Arecus and Shayamin)

Supreme Dirt January 24th, 2008 6:28 PM

I used to organize them that way, but now I have too many Pokemon to do it (so many shinies, duplicate events, etc.)

Awesome idea. All I need to do is go and buy Diamond version.

Umanouski January 24th, 2008 7:20 PM

i keep it by type. Water, Fighting W/steel W/ground and so on. Legends have their own box, offers/holds/trades have there own, and my starting battle lineup rotation.

No I always remeber where they are.

BakingBluePotatoe January 24th, 2008 8:07 PM

um......... I TRY:

Slaves (of any kind)
Legendaries/Events (almost full o.O)
Clones/UFT

the rest is sort of a mess @[email protected]

BobberyJo January 24th, 2008 8:13 PM

I divide it into Ev'd, Shiny, Fodder, Breed(Used for breeding)

WaluigiRedclaw91 January 24th, 2008 8:42 PM

I think i will start transfering my shinys onto my diamond nd leave everything else undisturbed on pearl

Ayano Katagiri January 25th, 2008 2:17 AM

More often used go in the main box and the rest are scattered through sorting by types.

Drakorn January 25th, 2008 4:00 AM

My Pokemon boxes are sorted as mixtures, however, the boxes are mainly named as colours.

They go as follows;

Box 1 - Shiny 1
Box 2 - Shiny 2
Box 3 - Shiny 3
Box 4 - Blue 1
Box 5 - Blue 2
Box 6 - Yellow
Box 7 - Brown
Box 8 - Green
Box 9 - PurpPink
Box 10 - Red
Box 11 - BlackGry
Box 12 - White
Box 13 - EGG
Box 14 - Unconfrm
Box 15 - Approved [After a week or so they go in their appropriate box]
Box 16 - Not want
Box 17 - Box 17
Box 18 - EV-Team [Even though they haven't been EVd]

DragonForce January 25th, 2008 4:29 AM

Mine are by Their Type
Ghost/Fighting/fire so on
And A box for legendaries and spares and shinies lol
very little space left

Gibby January 25th, 2008 5:21 AM

I use a strange system personally:

Box01: Sort (this is where my captures / trades go before they are sorted to correct box)
Box02: Train 01 (Pokémon I have caught but not leveled up yet for Dex entry)
Box03: Train 02
Box04: Train 03
Box05: Legends (where I put all my legendary)
Box06: Shiny 01 (where I put all my shiny Pokémon)
Box07: Shiny 02
Box08: Shiny 03
Box09: Egg's 01 (where I put eggs that I have obtained)
Box10: Egg's 02
Box11: Egg's 03
Box12: Egg's 04
Box13: Team 01 (My various teams that I level up and train go here)
Box14: Team 02
Box15: Event (where I keep event Pokémon)
Box16: Keep (Pokémon that I want to keep that aren't shiny, EV or IV trained)
Box17: Level-Up (Pokémon that are to be traded, but need to be leveled up first)
Box18: Trade (Pokémon that are to be traded away or will be traded soon)

Basically, when I capture a Pokémon, it goes to the sort box, and then later on I sort them on if I want to keep them. I have this strange habit of never capturing evolved Pokémon (unless it's shiny). Instead, I capture it's pre-evolution and evolve it to the Pokémon I may need. I do this for filling my Dex and for when I'm just simply training them. That is why my train boxes are not that large. Once the Pokémon has been trained up enough to let me know on if I want to keep it, I will move it to the respected box, but if I just needed the Dex info, it will be released.

You could say I spend half of my time just keeping my boxes straight, and that's probably right. I spend a great deal of time with the boxes, but I like this system.

I arrange mine into national dex order. It takes time the first time you do it but after that it doesnt take much time at all. The only problem is that it only leaves me with 1 1/2 boxes of free space and I trade and breed alot.

Marksman January 25th, 2008 5:42 AM

I sort mine into type and rename them so I don't get confused.

For example, BOX1
Type: Fire Pokémon
Name: Flamers

Lockmaster24 January 25th, 2008 7:22 AM

I do the types with another Box for unown but im not happy because i ran out of Normal and water space i put them in there second type though

hawkfire January 25th, 2008 8:30 AM

I had all of my Pokemon in Sinnoh order, then got the National Dex which ruined it. So now I have:

Box 1-5: Sinnoh pokemon
Box 6: National Dex Pokemon I need to evolve/breed to complete the national dex
Box 7-16: Other pokemon
Box 17: Unown (alphabetical order)
Box 18: Trade fodder
