Day 24 - Favourite classic game/episode
Pokemon Silver - There is no question here. Up until 5th gen it was my favorite of them all.... Even now it is just BARELY second place.

Day 25 - A Pokemon you plan on using
Druddigon - I used to highly dislike it... but it, and its shiny sprite, have begun to grow on me.

Day 26 - Best voice acting
I am really unsure on this one... Though honestly, in what I caught, it's a tie between Dawn and May. /too lazy to look up actor names

Day 27: Best battle you've had (in-game or Wi-Fi)
Easily when I beat Brock's Onix in Red with my Spearow. I was just using it to Growl and Leer and set up for Charmander to come it. I honestly thought the Onix would kill Spearow, but it just kept Biding and letting me set up, and yeah. Hax was on my side! n_n

Of recent memory I would have to say a Co-Battle in Battle factor were 3 members of our team were hax'd to death, then my Garchomp 4-0 the opposing team. There was also a battle were. Then there was another battle were I got hax'd but my partner had one of the most epic stall battles and came back with Crobat to 4-0 the opposing side.

One of the best battles I've had was at the Australian Battle Competition. It was a good battle that was really close in the end. I just won won with my Hydreigon having 10 or so Hp left.

Day 27 - Best battle you've had (in-game or Wi-Fi)

The second [/edit] best battle that I've had (but I can't remember much of my battles, so I'll judge with the more recent ones) would probably be my Victory Road match with Wally in my Pokemon Emerald, which I recently replayed for a challenge. :3

It's funny how I initially felt like saying "What are you doing here, get out of my Victory Road >_>" and then realized how awesome the battle with him would be. Every single Pokemon in my team shined, I liked Skarmory more because of this battle (especially with how well he demonstrated his epic wall-ish qualities), and even the mirror Gardevoir match made me feel good that I've been raising mine better than him. XD

EDIT: Funny how I was already speaking of Gardevoir's awesomeness before. But that's not the point. I soon saw myself in a far more epic battle with Wallace in Emerald, using only Gardevoir. I guess that just takes the cake. But to elaborate, here:

Spoiler:
To start off, I went into Pokemon League in my Emerald "Save the Pokemon" challenge, stocked up on healing items, then fought through the first few Elite Four members. Up until Glacia, my Pokemon were doing good, but Drake killed every single one with his Salamence, except for my starter, Swampert. D: Thankfully, Swampert had an awesome Ice Beam, and was able to defeat Salamence. However! I completely forgot healing up right after defeating Drake, because I got used to healing in the room of the next Elite Four member then. Thus, as I entered Wallace's room, I saw my character tread towards Wallace without halting, until I realized, that...I can no longer heal...Wallace just talked to me without giving me any time to do so.

I immediately thought, "This can't be happening." Even though it felt hopeless, I still continued on for I worked so hard to get there. So yeah, my Swampert was sent out against Wallace's Wailord. Thank goodness I had a Max Revive, so at least I can have a fully healed Pokemon from my team try to defeat Wallace. But who can possibly take on Wallace on its own? At first, I looked at Magneton. But then I remembered how useful Gardevoir's Calm Mind was, so I went with it instead. So yeah, I used Max Revive on Gardevoir, and sent it out after Wailord finished my Swampert. )': After almost killing myself with a 60% accurate Hypnosis that I used in the first turn, which amazingly worked, I then set up about three Calm Minds before Wailord wake up. It was going to use Water Spout, and I thought I was a goner. But surprisingly, after using Calm Mind at that turn (yay for its speed) Gardevoir was able to take the attack, so by using Psychic in the next turn, Wailord was beaten. o.O

Right after that, every single Pokemon of Wallace fell to either Shock Wave or Psychic. I did Calm Mind two more times within those last battles, and healed using a Hyper Potion at least once, but after beating Milotic, I just sat there, jaw dropped, not believing how I actually was able to beat the Champion with one Pokemon. So yeah, I guess that means I've got a new Pokemon to add to my favourites. :3

I believe it was one of my Platinum wi-fi matches with member Sweet Smoochum. IIRC, she won because she had one Pokemon left, Ninetales, and it only had about 6 hP left or so. A very close, exciting battle.

Hum.... Ghetsis in White... It was down to his hacktastic Hydreigon and my Samurott... I picked revenge, thinking "Aw dangit I'm dead!" because Rovayen was my last one stranding. and I survived teh hit and killed the dragon. ._.

Ingame, the best battle I've ever had was the battle with Steven on Emerald. No, not the one on the game: the one where you battle alongside him in a double battle. Even though the battle was quite easy, it was, I believe, the first double battle where you have a partner in the games (on the main ones, idk about spin-offs).

Well I don't play Wi-Fi but I do play competitive on those battle simulators. I can't quite say that I've had my best battle on those yet.

In a UU battle I came back from being 5 pokemon down (mainly because of my fault of not having variety of Pokemon) to beating the opponent's entire team (albeit with foe's mistake). My Houndoom killed off Claydol, which had little bit of HP remaining after enduring the hits while sweeping with Earthquake/Psychic, with Dark Pulse, and he sent out his Absol, who performed three swords dances while I did three nasty plots... and my pokemon turned out to be faster, so it killed off the Absol, and guess what happened next... ):-)

Morty & Jasmine
- Always thought Morty was a cool guy and I love ghost types as well. Jasmine got mad respect from me back in gen II when it took me months to beat her in Gym Leader Castle on Pokemon Stadium 2. Plus, I thought her hair was cool and I would look around in school for girls that did that with their hair. None of them did, unfortunately. :[ But yeah, lol. Plus I have a secret love of Steel types.

Brock all the way! Back then I was quite addicted to Brock (before I became addicted to Harry Potter). I mean he is the very first GYM leader I've met (on the anime when I started watching as a kid because the first GYM leader I met on the games is Roxanne. :D). And he is just pure awesomeness. He can cook and he can take care of Pokemon. How cool is that?

Wattson reminds me of my grandpa, and someone that I would want to be when I become one myself. He always seemed cheerful and didn't let his age bring him to retiring in his Gym Leader career. He still shows his knowledge and skill though, and even gave me a great fight in RSE. And btw, he was kind enough to give me two very useful TMs (Shock Wave and Thunderbolt), and thus I like him for all of that. :3

Who else could it be other than the funny old Wattson. XD His gym battle with Ash was so hilarious that I was laughing throughout the episode. In the games, however, he was pretty tough for someone like me who went with Treeko as the starter.

It would have to be either Misty or Iris. They are just so awesome. And we get to see a lot more of them thanks to the anime. I would say Cilan, but not after what he just caught...

Giovanni. Yeah, he's painfully easy to beat, but he's a freaking MOB BOSS! That alone makes him awesome.

Jasmine, Blaine, and Elesa are honorable mentions.

Im in between Volkner, Falkner, and Blue. I like Volkner cause his ambitions to become stronger(which is why I think he should have been promoted to Elite 4 in Plat). Falkner I just like his design, and in the anime he had one of the best battles with Pidgeot vs. Charizard. Blue is Gary Oak alternative self need I say more.

From my Emerald Version, versus Frontier Brain Lucy:

Lucy sent out Seviper!
Go, Roswell! [Gardevoir]
Roswell traced foe Seviper's Shed Skin!
Roswell used Psychic! Foe Seviper fainted!
Lucy sent out Shuckle!
Roswell used Double Team! Roswell's evasiveness rose!
Foe Shuckle used Toxic! Roswell was badly poisoned!
Roswell's Shed Skin cured its status problem.
/repeat with x5 Double Teams and x6 Calm Minds not to mention a little bit of HP loss
Roswell used Psychic! Foe Shuckle fainted!
Lucy sent out Milotic!
Roswell used Shock Wave! (or Psychic, I forgot which o3o) Foe Milotic fainted!

Best Frontier Brain match I ever had.

Timburr! When I first saw it, I thought it was freakin' creepy. But when I actually saw it in White, that sprite animation was just adorable, and I loved his smirk. He's one of my favorite Pokemon now. I even went as far as to keep my Timburr unevolved in White til about level 40 something. lol

Cohagrigus! I never thought that Pokemon that I didn't originally like would become my only favourite Pokemon. It just came to me, its defensive prowess originally hit me but the story behind Yamask and Cohagrigus—it hit me.

Oshawott, I hated Oshawott when I first saw it with its big brown nose and triangle ears but as soon as I saw Ash's in the anime I began to love it so much that it was even my starter.

Day 29: A Pokemon you thought you wouldn't like, but ended up loving

Based on designs from pre-release reveals, I'd say Drilbur, because Excadrill was an awesome evolution, so Drilbur became one of my faves, too. But based on in-game experiences (which means, I didn't like it in my team first but I ended up loving it), I would DEFINITELY say Gardevoir! At first, it was one of the weakest Pokemon in my team (as a Ralts). Even though I liked its design, I still thought of replacing it with a much stronger Pokemon. Little did I know...that it would transform into one of my favorites! Recently, in my current challenge, I singlehandedly beat Wallace using Gardevoir. True story. No really. XD
That battle was so awesome, that it deserves a mention in my Day 27 post! I can't believe it happened almost right after Day 27. :DD

Now I know which Gen 3 Pokemon I love the most, thanks to that battle. <3

Morty, hands down. He's hot, uses one of my favorite types, resides in an awesome city, and has an awesome gym~ However, Iris is second because Iris is awesome.

Day 29: A Pokemon you thought you wouldn't like, but ended up loving
There are...quite a few here, to be honest. One of the ones that stands out most though is Sewaddle. I didn't particularly care for it when it was first announced, but after watching the BW! episode it first appears in I fell in love with the little guy <3 I've also come to love Emboar a lot too, despite me complaining about its design originally. That thing is an offensive HP hoarder.

Emboar and Samurott, I thought from the initial scans they were fake as many of the community did as well. Now I like both, and I still think Serperior looks like crap.

Thanks to everyone that participated and kept up, and thanks to Miss Doronjo for letting me do this! idk what you wanna do with the thread though, but after today, it's pretty much done. Dunno what else can be done with it. n_n;

Day 30: Your favourite Pokemon game of all time
Pokemon Emerald
- I know this game like the back of my hand and enjoy it more and more every time I play it. :] It's just perfect. Sure, it's lacking Petilil, but I can deal! It's tons of fun and easily my favorite Pokemon game of all time.
