A team full of Ivysaurs sounds pretty sweet right about now :3

And you like Miltank to jdthebud?

Azumarril sucks in Crystal :/ No Huge Power for Sweeping and no Thick Fat for bulk. Oh well, you still get OP Surfs in that game.

vaporeon7 February 1st, 2011 4:02 AM

So do you people think I should make a monospecies thread?

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 4:20 AM

I don't know if someone can tolerate a run with the same Pokemon, and more so in tedious regions. But if you want to do it then hey, fine by me. Ok guys quick I'm doing a regular Run in HGSS and you guys get NICKNAMES. 3 of them are named already but I can just go to goldenrod and rename them.

Typhlosion -
Staraptor -
Dragonite -
Scyther -
Lanturn -
Kangaskhan/Milktank -

vaporeon7 February 1st, 2011 4:34 AM

I want to be Lanturn please!

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 6:39 AM

Ok so Vaporeon7 is going to be my Lanturn, cool.

Bug Catching COntest is unfair, I get 3rd place with a Scyther. While 2nd and 1st place goes to Kakuna and Metapod. >.> I didn't know that Cacoons are Superior to a Giant Praying Mantis.

Alternative February 1st, 2011 6:55 AM

Yeah it's weird. I always thought the Bug Catching Contest was all about the Pokemon you catch, with Scyther/Pinsir always being the winner. I know there's a formula for the score total as well. It's something like uh... Pokemon + Park Balls used + Level + Remaining HP + idk if you're Sydian or not. It's weird though. I'm pretty sure there's a formula on Bulbapedia for it. :P

Also just a totally random question: What's an awesome video recording program for the computer? I want anything not named Hypercam or Fraps. :) I might actually record one of my challenges, or at least the dexter one.

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 6:57 AM

I got a (-Atk,+Spd) Nature for my Scyther, joy D:

Anything you want to be Alt?

Alternative February 1st, 2011 7:00 AM

Not specifically since none of those Pokemon I particularly like, but if you do end up catching an Exeggcute/Bellsprout/Oddish name it after me, especially if you catch an Exeggcute. <3

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 7:05 AM

I have an Oddish..........as a Cut Slave. Does that work? I might use it after Game :3

And if I don't find me a Kangaskan easy, I'll catch me a Exeggcute

Alternative February 1st, 2011 7:08 AM

Can't you only catch Kangaskhan in the Safari Zone or something? That would be a tough one to find, with it being so rare and all.
I want to do a solo Exeggcute/Oddish run now. It seems like it could be fun. :D

myrrhman February 1st, 2011 12:26 PM

I. Am. The. Staraptor. That is all.

Sydian February 1st, 2011 2:36 PM

Typhlosion. :D

Also, I clicked on this and was like "um this isn't PGC wtf" and realized it got moved to the top of GPGD. @[email protected] Dunno why. I assume it just happened because of the description changed. But yeah. lol Also, about to move on to my next two Pokemon in team #3 to train. I'm thinking I'll go with Asy (Shinpora) and Emma (Kibago) next. :)

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 2:49 PM

So all we need for names is Kangaskhan, Dragonite and Scyther/Scizor

myrrhman February 1st, 2011 2:56 PM

@ Syd: are you only doing two at a time?
@ chaos: you should name the Dragonite Ace, after karpman (I think, I can't keep up with all these name changes)

Also, as my 1,000th post approaches, I ask you. Should my 1,000th post be me saying "all right solo challenge, I've updated you" or should I just do that and make my 1,000th post "I just finished the very last monotype on Blue Version" since I'm only 3.5 away now, and I can keep editing my Ice post until I've beaten it. What do you think?

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 3:12 PM

Blue Monotype Update for sure.

I don't like the change, I liked it better when Challenges was in the top of GPGD

champagnepapi February 1st, 2011 3:28 PM

I really don't like Dragonite all that much, I honestly thought the name sounded cool, which is why I used it.
If Scizor is still open, I'll take it, but I'd rather not have a Scyther bearing my name, if it isn't going to evolve.

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 3:33 PM

I think I'm only going to have Scizor after game, because you get Metal Coat from the S.S Anne and I don't feeling stealing from Magnemites.

Besides in Johto Half of HG Scyther > Scizor being STAB Techni Wing Attack Kills everything. Once I beat the Elite Four I'll have access to Swords Dance and X-Scissor then I'll evolve it.

Sydian February 1st, 2011 3:43 PM

Myrrh, when I train a new team, I just take a pair along with 4 other really strong Pokemon (pretty much the ones that already made Hall of Fame) and I go to the double grass in Great Hall (where Pokemon are about level 60-56) and give one of the weaker Pokemon an Exp. Share. Then I use the stronger Pokemon (the party leader holds a Lucky Egg) to battle until that weaker Pokemon gets to 50. Then that level 50 Pokemon takes the second slot so that if I do get in a double battle, it actually gets to do something so I can get an idea of how it will be in battle. Then when it hits 60, I give it the Lucky Egg and put it at the head of the party. At 65, I go to the second Pokemon in that pair. Rinse and repeat. When my new party is all at level 65, I take them all to the same place and get them to level 70.

-wipes sweat from forehead- ^-^;

I'll be Kangaskhan, if it's not nicknamed yet. (I half-read all of the posts, xD)

Camstudio works well for that purpose. It's also free.

chaos11011 February 1st, 2011 4:57 PM

If Karpman still wants to be my Scizor (and tolerate Scyther half the game) here's my Team

Typhlosion - Sydian
Staraptor - Myrrh
Dragonite - Decade
Scizor - Karpman
Lanturn - Vaporeon7
Kangaskhan - Inferno

Sounds good.

champagnepapi February 1st, 2011 5:01 PM

@Chaos11011, I will be your Scyther/Scizor <3
@Alternative, Try procaster, that should work.

DefiningTheDecade February 1st, 2011 5:04 PM

Lol So good news bad news and horrificly ugly news..

Good.. found Ruby and hacked in Charmander

Bad.. For some reason I have to believe this game is hacked cause when I picked torchic may had a treecko..

Horrificly ugly.. My hacked in charmanders broke Trochics every limb and resulted in a fail Nuzlocke..

Bad again.. I picked Mudkip so I didn't have this soo easy and I could probably catch a charmander and not die this time.. Turns out the person who hacked it hated Treecko or something cause after I battled may caught another hothead.. I save it started a new one with no saving to be introduced and Treecko was picked this time and sadly enough.. May had Treecko..

Anyways back to mudkips part.. though I hate water I guess their useful for surfing..
Charmander is making quick progress being level 25 before entering petalburg (grinding speed is amazing at Hoenn)

Wow... Forgot to write the question... FAIL!!!!
Okay, I was wondering if it was OK to restart the Johto Leg of the UMC I was doing. It's just kinda... impossible right now...
