Did you beat the game without using ANY traded Pokémon?
And when I say "beat the game" I do mean when AFTER you beat the Elite Four.
My experience with B/W is that I overlevelled before any major gym challenge and tackled the Elite Four after grinding, using Pokémon that I caught in the very beginning then evolved (Lillipup, Blitzle, Munna, etc.) I'm just wondering if anybody out there at some point in the game grabbed a traded Pokémon and used them for the long haul. Would you say it was a lot easier than having to train all of your original team? Did you feel that the experience boost helped you a lot on your journey? Or if, like me, you did not use any traded Pokémon and stuck with the ones that you caught originally, even swapped a few members of your main party with other Pokémon you caught yourself? |
Yes is did i had my tepig at lv. 25 before the first gym cos i was bored. Then m=by the time i finished the elite 4 wich is wat im up to now, i had lv 70s.
|
I was determined to beat the game with my own Pokemon, and last night at 1:16a.m. this morning, I was successful. ^___^
|
My own Pokemon the whole way through. Result? Pwned everyone in eyesight. *Pets Samurott*
|
I've only just beaten Elesa but my traded pokemon's exp boost make my life easier lol. I traded a Tepig I got off the GTS from my completed Japanese White and got a Cottonee from an in-game trade :p
|
Nope, plus I couldn't anyway as I don't have another B/W game, and I don't like trading on Wi-Fi. I only received 4th Gen. after the game using Poke Swap.
|
I caught all my Pokemon in-game. The only Pokemon I used during the Elite Four were Reuniclus and Meinshao.
|
on my first go yep, but this time im hoping to get someone to throw me a larvesta egg before i get to the second gym, just cuz larvesta&volcarona have become my new most fav pokemon & i dont wanna wait til after my 6th badge to get it :)
|
I usually try to "beat" the game by only using Pokemon I've caught in that specific game, and that's usually because I've just got no way of transferring them over. This time though, I really would like to trade over Pokemon from my previous games to complete the story and whatnot.
|
yup
only used the water starter and Musharna for the whole game |
I certainly did! I never use traded Pokémon during my first playthrough. I don't like having original owners listed on Pokémon that don't read as my name.

I don't plan on using any others than my self-caught Pokemon the first time through the game. |
Actually for the First time ever, I used pokemon I caught in the game and raised them from the beggining, my strongest is my Emboar which is level 54 and the rest are low 30's but they still helped me a lot, a lot of them are almost level 40 so I think I'm doing pretty good, usually in the past pokemon games I used other pokemon from previous generations to beat the E4, but this time I didn't I only actually used 2 pokemon to beat the elite four XD Krookoroc and Emboar XD. I must say that the E4 in Black and White are actually real easy, not much variation in types... A Ghost Type User, a Psychic Typer User and a Fighting Type user and Dark Type user, 2 of which can be beaten by a Dark Type, 1 can be beaten by Fighting and the other Flying.. Not much diversity.. But they are fun to battle.
|
so far i have only used pokemon caught in game. i have pokemon that i traded over but that was just so i could get zorua
|
My boyfriend is restarting his copy so I currently have his Herdier and Servine, and since they're a tad underleveled compared to my team, I'm trying to train them indirectly so he has a better team when he wants them back. But I'm not using them as part of my main team and I don't intend to.
|
iv only just beat the elite 4 but so far no traded pokemon :)
|
No :C I traded over Axew and a Litwick from my Japanese Black u_u and used the GTS to find a Sewaddle. Boosted EXP is always nice.
|
I used traded Pokemon :(
I used that Snivy that you traded me Siggy, and a Samurott I raised on my Black and transferred to White. Technically when it came to the Elite Four, I beat it with my -own-, being Samurott and Emboar. :D; |
I only traded Pokemon for the 2nd E4 battle.
|
Beat the elite four the first time without any traded pokemon. But considering trading over some from Diamond for the second time around.
|
I never use traded pokemon on my first play through. I feel like I didn't accomplish anything doing that. I beat the elite four using an under-leveled team (lv42~48). Was too lazy to grind them to match elite four levels :/. More challenging this way anyway.
|
I had traded over a Minccino and Petilil in their Eggs from a nice person, so that they would still have my Original Trainer. I didn't want to run through the game with those boosted exp things, so I got the Pokemon I wanted in eggs, and trained them instead.
|
I did all my way through the game until I reached Opelucid City, and when I was ready to get to the 8th Gym (Lv. 45-46 Pokès), I tried to do a GTS Negotiation, and I got an Oshawott with Night Slash, giving my Simipour. So I replaced my Stoutland (got bored of it) and trained Oshawott with 8th Gym trainers... Nearly reached the team's levels :D
Now I have a sweet Lv. 83 Samurott, thank you SAMMY! |
Nothing traded or transferred. Once you beat the Plasma grunt in Relic Castle, the rest of the game is cake.
|
I beat the main story with my own pokemon that I caught in the game. But now that I'm doing the post story all I have is an emboar that I traded with someone and the rest on my team are all still my own. It's really easy to train pokemon in black and white because of the new exp. system and the lucky egg item.
