[overlord tyranitar]

since no one else seems to be doing it, ill will do ghost on gold which might as well be a ghastly family challenge. so am I allowed to trade a misdreavus egg into the game?

ill remember to update as often as possible and sorry about no banner, there appears to be no ghost type one

 

[overlord tyranitar]

scratch that, starting on crystal instead because haunter can learn thunderbolt by move tutor (must remeber to breed said haunter) also i ask again if i can trade a misdreavus egg from my silver in to the game
