So far? I have trouble taking down wild Bibarel with most of my Pokemon (barring the two I don't want to train and the one that is only on my team for Cut - yes that means you, Budew :/)

It's not like Bronzor can't do it, but it takes so long because its Sp.ATK is so low >_<
Psyduck and Aipom get rolled. Aipom has a chance, but that requires lucky Fury Swipes XD

The only hard thing for me was the 4th Gym. The leader was easy it was just the punching bags and stuff trying to get to him. By the time I was in Eterna City my twig evolved to Torterra and it pwnd everything.
I've been playing for eight hours and I just got my 7th badge.

My Torterra has been taking them all down.(The gym leaders.) The pokemon that I'm temporarily using (Psyduck, Bibarel, Buneary) have all been taken down. I just got a Porygon though, that seems to do quite well.

Which Gym are you in?

My team consist of Torterra, the beast. Empoleon, the sidekick, and togepi, the healer, the others are just for HMs such as Machop and Staravia.

I just got my 5th badge. I'm moving slowly but surely. I plan on using Torterra as a substitute for one of the legendary pokemon in Pearl so I can battle online. I'm also going to use Tauros and Porygon to sub for the other two legendaries on my team. I will have some alternate pokemon too to switch out if necessary. :D

I just prized whatever badge you get from Wake (I refuse to call him Crasher...). So, the hardest part so far would probably be putting the game down.

I'm on the ghost gym and Fantina. I don't have any good Pokemon for countering Ghosts yet, the best I have is Confusion spamming the Gastly/Haunter/Gengars and Rock Throw against the Drifloon/Driftblum. Nothing against those pesky Misdreavus/Mismagius, though. Might end up relying on Togetic's Metronome. Hope he doesn't Explosion again...

The battle with Cyrus in the Distortion World was much more difficult than I expected.
I agree with you. But it took me about 5 minutes, since I kept using Bublebeam/Hydro Pump on all his Pokemon.

I'm only on Fantina, so not much has been hard. But every person who can keeps using Hypnosis. And it always hits! D<

hey did all of yous catch your gligars and porygons in the game or did you trade them through
In game.
