First Thing You Did On Platinum
 
Obviously, something of importence, not just like named myself. Like mine is I caught a Jolly Female Shiny Shinx.

Ikitsumi March 28th, 2009 1:23 PM

Kept resetting to get a female Piplup. ^w^

It kinda sucks that it's got an Impish nature though...because that really brings down the special attack. ;-; Right now she's got the lowest stats in my team. DX

Other than that, I went straight to go beat Roark so I could spiff his badge up nice and shiny~! <3 (And leave Gardenia's badge alone...mwahaha.)

Looked for a good budew to carry me through to the E4. Found a Modest one but it was male, eew.

Thomas March 28th, 2009 1:31 PM

Errrrrrrr....I'm not that far into it. XD I just got it yesterday, but I guess just my Kricketot evolving into a Kricketune lol I've only been playing it for like an hour...

World King March 28th, 2009 1:36 PM

Waited for a Jolly Infernape. But instead, found a Shiny one! O_o Waiting's worth it! =D

"Shadow Lugia" March 28th, 2009 1:37 PM

Caught two Zubat. The first one was modest or something like that, but the second one was jolly.

I Turned It On Duh. No But I Kept Reseting Till I Got A Female Chimchar. Now Im Trying To Get My Cousin To Let Me Use His Ds. To Transfer My Pokemon From Diamond To Platuinm.

I named myself.
Otherwise I would have to keep making up names along my journey.

Aww man, LUCKY. X3 Well, the second time I reset after getting the Riolu egg, I got a Modest Female, so I was pretty pleased with that. And I found a Shiny Girafarig while training my Houndour.

Cloche March 28th, 2009 5:22 PM

Well, the first thing I did was get angry that there are still Zubat and Geodude everywhere, and made a picture in GIMP of Sabrina stabbing them both... >> <<

Cyntric March 28th, 2009 5:27 PM

just started catching pokemon as soon as I got the pokeballs

MetalMario March 28th, 2009 9:33 PM

Saved in front of the bad to soft reset for a shiny Turtwig.

And I'm still there! T,T

Arc March 28th, 2009 9:50 PM

The first thing I did was give my Piplup a nickname that doesn't match it at all

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ March 28th, 2009 11:49 PM

Once I beat Roark, I did a bunch of trades to get necessary Pokemon (and an egg) over to Platinum, and to (partially) rebuild my Pearl Pal Pad contact list.

Eon-Rider March 28th, 2009 11:51 PM

The first thing I did was walk out of my room.

Bibliophibian March 28th, 2009 11:56 PM

Reset to get a Piplup with a good nature (which ended up being female too).

Other than that, looked around and got a Starly and a Budew, both with the natures I wanted on the first try. I was sort of miffed that Budew had Poison Point instead of Natural Cure, but I decided not to be too picky. :3

That is something I would like to see.

I rushed through the first few cities to get a Bronzor ASAP. Except for a bit of lingering around anything involving Team Galactic. But otherwise, Bronzor was my priority.

heatman2477 March 29th, 2009 12:23 AM

just got the game and my plan is to trade over a team of level 1's from pearl. i'm kinda procrastinating right now and figuring out the actual team using a team generator but after that i will start beating the game.

Amaranth March 29th, 2009 10:02 AM

I ran around to train my Piplup a little (I don't like having a lv. 5, haha) and caught a Starly.

Working Class Hero March 29th, 2009 10:22 AM

Of importance..nothing really that isn't out of the ordinary. I would say..trading over my shiny Bulbasaur, Moltres, Gyrados, Electivire, and Porygon-Z..

Amaruuk March 29th, 2009 11:28 AM

Well, first I caught a bunch of Bidoofs and stuff to trade over, then I traded some Pokes from my Diamond and also did some (very) long-awaited trade-evolving for my Diamond's Pokedex.

heatman2477 March 30th, 2009 12:00 AM

starting tomorrow cause its late but i finally decided on a team. it's kinda built for stab and super-effective attacks against the elite 4. no movesets yet but here's the team:

spirtomb- never ever used it and i wouldn't mind starting with a level 1
houndoom- always wanted to use one cause i think they're BALLIN'
aerodactyl- again never used one and i''m really looking forward to it
lapras- haven't used one since r/b and i needed a good ice pokemon
garchomp- i like dragons and starting a game with a dragon is a no fail situation
cacturne- ya another dark type but i love grass types and this one is pretty unique

Cid March 30th, 2009 12:16 AM

Besides all of the in-game events that were supposed to happen?
I caught a Starly and raised it along with my Chimchar.
They're still on my team as Staraptor and Infernape.

Azumi March 30th, 2009 6:47 AM

Hm... The first thing I did is to make sure I got the right Pokemon into my team and EVENLY TRAIN IT.
(You probably know what happened in my previous games. SO DON'T ASK.)

At the same time, I had been praying and praying for Revives in the local shop, cuz Fantina was giving me a hard time.
Luckily I beat her this morning and I'm zipping through Solaceon and to Veilstone with newly-purchased Revives. ^^ My life feels so much better~!
