I'll try to get the Johto 251, but I can't be bothered to catch the 493. Besides Wi-Fi kinda ruined it, you used to have to find them yourselves now you can just trade for them.

I've never caught them all (or even tried xD) before. So when I play SS, I'll be trying my absolute best to catch them all. (While working on a competitive team in the meantime >w>)

Actually, seeing as apparently you have to catch the whole Johto dex, I will catch 251 out of 493(although one time I had over 400 caught)

Yes! I will probably end up being about 20 away from completing it in the end, though. It makes awesome replay value.

Hmm, I don't think I'm getting all of them. It seems like too much work now that there are almost 500 Pokemon and with Nintendo working on the 5th Generation DS game, there will be even more once released, so I think I'll just catch my favorites and train the ones I want as my final team. On occasion, I may catch a few here and there, but catching all of them is a tall order for me and I don't like using Action Replay.

I have been playing Pokemon since yellow version. I have never completed a pokedex until my Diamond about 6 months ago. I don't want to go through all that trading again. I will catch all there is to catch though for sure. That is what makes it fun.

I'll try to. I lost my Silver game before I had a chance to finish it, but hopefully I can get them all.

Well , I'll use a guide to see which Pokemon lurk in the grass then snare them with anything ! >:-)

Just because the 'Dex is a hard to do thingy introduced in the first Pokemon game and forth . Since then , we all strive but very little succed (409 seen , 321 caught in Platinum ...) .

Agreed, I am glad they have it, though many GTS trades suck. Like LV 3 Ratatta for a LV 100 Mew

I am closer than I expected, since I have all starters (I have a trade thread where you can get them, see sig), but my big worry is legendaries. My GBA game always malfunctions when I want it to migrate Pokémon, so I always have to trade to get the inaccessibles.

most likely. I did this on my original gold version: catch every pokemon in each area at a time. That way I will have more of a variety towards the end.

Since my overall goal is to have a trainer card with 5 stars, national dex completion being one of them, yes I will. I don't think filling the dex will be that hard, to be honest, especially since Pal Park doesn't have a 24 hour limit like in D/P/Pt. I'll just park as many 1st and 3rd gen pokemon as I can and try to keep the one-for-one trading to a minimum. The only hard part will be trying to trade in 4th gen version exclusives, which is why I'll be doing that first.

This will also be the very first time I've had the opportunity to catch ALL the pokemon, since there will be events for Mew, Deoxys, and most likely Celebi, so I'm quite excited at the chance to actually "finish" the game.

Not at all.

The only time that I actually caught all the Pokemon was way back in the days of Red/Blue. That was only when there were 150 catchable Pokemon. Now there's almost 500, and some Pokemon you can only catch if you go to certain events or go through some crazy evolution process.

I'll probably just catch whatever Pokemon I'm missing from my Pearl version and trade them over in a small attempt to get my Pokedex closer to completion on that game. But I'm really not going to make a conscious effort to do anything.

Well, seeing as HG and SS are the newest games to the series, one (probably Heart Gold) will become my MAIN game, so yes, I will catch'em all.

I may try after I beat SoulSilver a few times. I wanna work on my team and maybe do some competitive battling here and there. It'll be a challenge, though. I'll do my best.

I mean, I'll try, you can never be certain but I'm not the kind of person to plan so far ahead, I just take it as it is. If I manage to get close (In the 400s caught), sure I'll go for it, and with a lot of effort..Otherwise I'll just enjoy my time in the game.
