Where do you hang around the most?
Most of us have a place where we hang around in the game a lot. Like for intense battlers, some could be lurking around the renovated Battle Frontier. Maybe your a fisher and found around the clear blue sea?
Do you adore being surrounded by beautiful,untouched forests waiting to be explored? Or huge, modern cities filled with chatting people? Maybe even you're found in arenas or contest halls, dressed in an elegant dress or tuxedo... Where do you hang around most in HG/SS or D/P/Pt. Why do you lurk around there? Share where you like to hang around here :D. |
In HGSS I had a variety of different areas where I'd often ponder around, train or try and find hidden items. The Elite Four was probably the place where I'm found the most, mainly due to the fact that while completeing my main journey, my pokemon were relatively undeleveled before facing them, so I used them as a training method, swithcing my weaker pokemon out with a stronger pokemon as soon as the battle had begun. I was also quite attracted toward Azalea town, I think it was due to Kurt and the balls he crafted, which I heavily relied upon to catch Entei, Suicune and Raikou.
In DPPt, having not played it in awhile, I can't quite remember where I'd usually hang around. I think when I got bored, I'd often just fly to random places around the region and cycle through already explored routes in hope to find something that I didn't uncover on my first exploration. I definitely can remember wandering around Victory Road quite a bit, (again, it was a good place to train), but other than that, I don't think I had really any. |
In my SS I'm at the Pokeathlon all the time lol, you can't get enough evolution stones haha. I'm also at the Elite Four alot too.
|
Usually I lurk around the Pokemon League to be honest. I'm an intense battler who loves level grinding, it just gives tremendous satisfaction. Although you don't gain experience from participating in the Battle Frontier, I loved getting prizes and beating hard trainers who gave me a challenge.
I used to hang around in the contest hall but now contests aren't my thing. They just don't have that spark I'm looking for anymore. Fishing is one of my Pokemon hobbies, I love standing around, fishing for beautiful Pokemon. Ah and the Pokeathlon along with the National Park. On Tuesdays and Saturdays, I'd eagerly participate in the Bug Contest, it didn't matter whether I was a winner or not, at least it was something enjoyable! The Pokeathlon tested my skills outside battling. Pokemon to me was more than battling and the Pokeathlon showed it. I adored participating in the Speed Course, even though I'd constantly fall over all those silly hurdles D:. |
In Johto the bug-catching contest and Cherrygrove City; Sinnoh would be Floaroma Meadow and Solaceon Town doing jobs for the news press guy haha :)
|
I mostly hand around Goldenrod city (lovely place), the Pokeathlon Dome and the Battle Tower.
|
The place I hang around the most in HeartGold would be Goldenrod City. It has the Game Corner, Radio Tower and GTS Building, as well as being right near the Pokeathlon Dome/National Park, and just north of the Daycare Center.
The only place I can recall spending a lot of time in Platinum was Jubilife City. It had the Lucky Number Drawing inside Jubilife TV and the GTS building, both of which I would check often. |
In Platinum, I hung out in the Battle Zone post-game because of the Battle Frontier there. In HG/SS, I hung around Goldenrod a lot because the Day Care Center was nearby.
|
In Johto I was always either in the Battle Frontier or Pokéathlon. These two areas made the game amazing for me and I wasted soooo much time playing them both xD As for Sinnoh, I spent a lot of time in Eterna Forest and the area just outside it chaining for shinies (Buizel/Buneary) and I also spent a lot of time in the Snowpoint mountains because they were sooooo cool n.n I just loved that whole area, it made the game feel so much more complete x]

SS: I hang around Elite Four and Goldenrod a lot. EE for obvious reasons, and Goldenrod because GTS, Bug Catching and Atmosphere.
|
I don't have Platinum anymore but I really just hovered around and leveling my Pokemon. As for SS, I need to play that a little more. Yeah... Not really exciting when it comes to these things am I?
|
I hang around the Resort Area a lot, especially in Platinum since my villa (aka my new home) is situated there. It's always interesting to see what new guests arrive to talk with.
I'm also known to explore Team Galactic's old headquarters from time to time. |
Me? As of now, I'd hang around in the Battle Frontier...all in favor of beating down all of the Brains.
|
I'd have to say the Canalave Library. First off, the Canalave city music. It's so beautiful. I can just imagine myself leaning over the railing of a boat, hair blowing in the breeze, inhaling the sweet scent of the ocean, and pulling up to the docks...
Second, the books on Sinnoh. I know them all by heart ;) The myths of Sinnoh and it's philosophy always interested me! (Maybe I should start going to church?) Ultimately, it's a beautiful city, and me loving the ocean, makes it even better. One of the many reasons I love Sinnoh. |
I'm almost always at Hearthome, or Solaceon.
|
It depands. If I am leveling up pokemon or trying to evolve them, I spend a lot of my time in that grass area before you entre the cave to battle Red.
For fun or to get items like stones, bug catching contest and Pokeathlon. I love it, its fun to play, and passes the time. It also near the day care centre. |
I usually am on Pearl the most because I've had it so long it's become the place where I collect and store all the pokémon from other games that are special or I want to keep..
I'm usually in Solaceon because of the daycare/hatching eggs or up at Route 229 leveling. |
In Mt. Silver.
- Training with Red. - Breathing the heavy air. - Training my Pokemons, Pikachu lv.100, Shiny Gyrados lv.100, Shaymin(SKYFORM) lv 96, Shiny Charizard lv100, Lucario lv.97, and Darkrai lv.100. - I stay there because my journey ended like Red in the Pokemon Journeys. |
In HGSS, I like to hang around in Goldenrod. It's my favorite town in the game, it has the daycare and access to Kanto by train.
|
In D/P/P, I spent a lot of time on the Solaceon Pike, hatching eggs while I kept getting more from the day-care man. Also ran some errands for the newspaper.
In HG/SS, I go to Goldenrod a lot because, well, it's Goldenrod and there's so much to do there. But I like going everywhere since there are all kinds of places! |
I don't usually stay in one place for a long time in my Diamond game. I just fly to random places, to random cities, battle the people who lost to me once, and train my Piplup, who, as I remember, is around level 96. But if I had to choose one place to stay, it would be in the contest hall. I like Dawn's outfit. Haha.
|
(Trying to keep this alive)
In D/P/Pt I usually hang around the Contest Hall cos I love Dawn's contest dress and the cute music gets me hooked. For HG/SS it would be Ecruteak City cos I adore the Japanese-sounding music in the Dance Theater. |
Id' probably hang around Goldenrod or the pokeathlon in HG/SS for obvious reasons.
In Platinum after the post game stuff i'd usually hang around the the survival area to battle the gym leaders and the rival again. |
In the 4th Gen games, I was often breeding and RNG abusing Pokemon. I'd fly to any place to hatch the egg in a 'cool' location, like Seafoam Islands if I'm hatching a Water type Pokemon. I was also trading a lot, so I'd be in a Pokemon Center or in the GTS building. If I needed to quickly train something, I'd fly to the (Platinum's) Survival Area's Battleground or Saffron City's Dojo to rebattle the Gym Leaders.
|
Either caves or forests. Dark Cave ideal... but Kanto Falls too.
|
Goldenrod City / Breeder's house.
I was addicted to breeding! Catch then breed to get my wanted Pokemon. :D |
D/P/Pt - The Underground. I love the mining aspect to it. (I like games that feature something like this, Spectrobes and Fossil Fighters are some of my favorite games because of that.)
HG/SS - It varies. I split my time between the Battle Frontier and the Pokethalon. |
Just traveling all along the place cos HG/SS is one of the games with the most scenic places in my opinion.
|
Quote:
As for HGSS, the Pokeathlon and The Safari Zone. The games are really fun and challenging and I like the idea of customizing the Safari Zone to get what ever Pokemon you can. |
Well in D/P/P I don't stay in one spot long enough to say where I spend most of my time.
In HG/SS I spend most of my time in Ecruteak city, mainly because I love the city and the music. |
In hg/ss I spend most of my time in Kanto but to be more specific, around Saffron City because I always have a gym leader or two to rematch.
|
I can't remember the spelling of the town, but it's the one on D/P/Pt that has a daycare center.
That's where I am most of the time. It just seems like a nice little town. Honestly, I can't remember where I stay on HG/SS. I was stupid enough to reset both games without thinking and now I can only access the first few towns (though tonight I'm going to send over a high level to rip through the gym leaders). |
I mostly stay around the post game island (can't remember its name), but it's where the battle facility is.
Mainly because there are high level wild Pokemon round there. |
In Platinum, I like the Grand Lake Hotel and the beach route beneath it. Mainly because I really like the music there, and the whole aesthetic of the place.
|
In Platinum I just biked around Solaceon, because it was the longest straight line that I could bike back and forth while hatching eggs.
In my Diamond however I then took the babies straight up to Survival Area and leveled them. *shrug* For Heartgold... Ecruteak City... the Park area before Tin Tower. And on my SoulSilver, I just watch snow falling with Red at Mt.Silver. |
Since this is about five games:
In Pokemon Pearl, I spent most of my time Underground trying to dig for fossils, stones, etc. In Pokemon Platinum, I spent most of my time in the Battle Frontier because I wanted to get all colored prints (which I still cannot do) In Pokemon SoulSilver I spent most of my time in either the Battle Frontier and the Pokeathlon. I finally finished the Pokeathlon, but still did not complete the Battle Frontier -____-" :t354:TG |
I always or usually am running around random cities. I always get the feeling there is something i can find no one else has. But, usually I am just walking around Mt. Silver or Goldenrod city in SS, or in the Battle Island place in Platinum.
|
For Sinnoh I roamed the fields surrounding Solaceon Town in my quest for newly hatched pokemon.
In Johto, I found my self spending time participating in the Pokeathelon. |
In Plat, I used to hang around my villa, since i spent all that money decorating it. In HG, I was hanging around Goldenrod because that was my favorite city. B/W I hang around Undella Bay, mainly because I can battle Cynthia in the Spring
|
Route 34 or Goldenrod, trying to breed pokémon.
