I'm In a bind..

I caught a Kingdra today at lvl 70 out in the Route 17 area.

It has better Base stats then my Samurott (not by alot but still better(528 for Samurott and 540 for Kingdra) and it gets to lvl 100 like 60k xp sooner.. AND Kingra only has 1 weakness (dragon) I already have a great team and I've sorta grown attached to my Samurott, as you can imagine... Do I ditch Samurott into the PC and start using Kingdra? Or continue using my Samurott? D:

What would Pokecommunity do?

Should I add Rilou to my squad as a fighting pokemon? My current squad consists of:


Samurott
Chandelure
Arcehops
Haxorous
Zweilous
Krookodile/Zebstrika

I plan on getting a Dragonite or Mioltic as well.

Nope, you have the ground, grass and the water spots, as well as the flying spots from the birds. It's the battles that vary, which means you mainly get triple ones.

And technically yeah, but only through the poketransfer or gen 4's migration. If you look at the FAQ, that'll explain the process.

Nope, not possible at all, sorry. Only GBA and above. :(

It's called White Forest, good luck with N, unless you have a question...? XD

yeah. i thought about exchanging the pokemon from my old pokemon gold version to an gba game. but i need to have a gba and a game XD. well the gba i can get from a friend and the game wouldn't be that much of a problem i guess.

na. n would be easy right now. i trained my pokemon good but i need to wait for a friend. she wants to see the final fight and the appearing of my black dragon :P. i'll be back again when i have questions. :)

speaking of which. so how does the trade between gba and ndsi works?

It would be from R/S/E to either HG/SS or D/P/Pt via the Pal Park. After that, you transfer them to B/W via the PokeTransfer.

Personally I love Lucario. Fighting is a weakness of at least Stone, Steel, Dark, Ice, and Normal type pokemon. Lucario's steel type also means resistance to many and only weakness to Fire, Fighting, and ground. It has good stats and good moves. I say go for it! In your case, I'd switch out Krookodile/Zebstrika for Riolul

^You first transfer from Ruby or Sapphire to Diamond/Pearl or HeartGold/SoulSilver through the Pal Park. (You put the R/S in the bottom of the DS and then once of the Gen 4 games in the top then you transfer.)
After that, you transfer from the DS game to the Black/White. (You'll need two DS's and have PokeTransfer. That's how to transfer from GameBoy to Black/White.

I have a question:
1) I put my Level 100 Aerodactlyl to sleep for like 3 weeks now, but it doesn't dream. WHY?

Then it sounds like you didn't really do something right or didn't wait long enough int he game synch part, because after selecting the Pokemon you want to send to the DW it should fall asleep in a few minutes and after that you should be able to log onto the DW via the glabal link site. Maybe you copied the global link code incorrectly from your DS to the site?
