I organize them on how I'm going to use them. pokemon I battle with a lot, pokemon I need to evolve, etc.. Also, that sig is the coolest thing I've ever seen.

I just chuck 'em in any box. xD Then I'll panic because I cant find one and I think i've released it by accident. I really need to sort them out. xD

Pokes I want to keep are in boxes 3-7, Pokes lvl 60+ and legendaries in box 8 and Pokes I have to trade in boxes 2, 1, 18 and 17.

It's confusing to read like this but I know where I'm looking when I'm in there XD

good organization is needed especially in competitve play. although obviously not a requirement or something of a matter that someone could use aginst you, it is good to have organization

i recommend
2-3 boxes for evd
1-2 boxes for iv breed
1-2 boxes for evd
4-6 boxes for fresh hatched unneeded eggs
1-2 boxes for possible eggs for iv battles

Heres the easyest way:
Have the boxes named after types then re arrange your pokemon.
Then if you want mark them for good shiny and legendary
its just the way i do it
EDIT: You also need 1 box for both egg and breed or one box each

I order my boxes in pokédex order as I am trying to fill my computer with one of every pokémon. Box 1 is 1-30 2 is 31-60 and so on, works for me, but i guess its harder to remember which pokémon are shiny EV trained etc.

Meh, I make a box for Pokemon I want to train later, boxes for different eggs each, and a box for already finished ones. Of course in that train box I put everything and it becomes cluttered again.

That's what I do too. It's so much easier than all the other things [:
I also put them into level order, so the ones at the start are all highly levelled (I don't think that made any sense, but hey! you can get the gist ;D )

Well, I don't have diamond or Pearl, but in Emerald I just put them in numerical order. That leaves me with one box I use for quick party storage.

I sort them by how I use them (breeding, Contests, standard battling). I have a special box for shiny Pokemon and ones I take through Amity Square (my shiny Buneary is good for both XD). I also have Pokedex Pokemon (Pokemon I still need to evolve/breed to get more Pokedex entries) separated from the ones that I no longer need for Pokedex completion (and these are the ones I'm willing to trade away). I have a separate box for traded Pokemon (for lottery purposes).

Yes, my box organizing system is needlessly complex lol.

Mine are all over the place.

I have a box though, I call it the mystery box. It has all the eggs I've ever bred. I have no idea which egg is which, so therefore, the mystery box.

I usually go in types and have a few other boxes like Breeding, 2EVTrain, (lol) etc and I find that works pretty well.

My pokemon are oraganized by Ubers, OU, BL, UU, NFE, LC, and then its Breeding Parents
my boxes are named after football :D

Ubers - Hall of Fame
OU - Pros
BL - Collegiate
UU - Varsity
NFE - Junior Varsity
LC - Freshman

the Males are Coaches
and the Females are Head Coaches

Because without the females breeding would be so hard >.<
