4th Gen Grinding

I never had to grind, i only used Feraligatr until i caught Lugia!
 
My lowest level is my Sunflora who's at level 43 while my highest level is tied for my Feraligatr and Steelix who are both at 47. I'm currently with 2 Kanto badges and am going to battle Erika for my third but I'm gonna need to grind Magmar up a little D:
 
I havn't been necessairily grinding, but I do try to keep all of my Pokemon the same level at all times.
 
I grind in every game because I always feel my pokemon are underleveled. In HG, before battling Falkner, all my pokemon were level 19. I then grinded so that my pokemon were level 30 at whitney.

I've ground my Pokemon into their 60s. It's long and boring and tiresome, but worth it in the end.
 
I run through the game and usually grind in the Victory Road, which IMO, the easiest place to level at.
I usually run into a Shiny or Pokerus'd Pokemon in my grindings.
 
Hmmm I ran through the game, decided to breed/ev train all my pokes so i took some time doing that, and then grinded near blackthorne and faced the pokemon league with 44's. Recently, I just have been sitting there grinding on the elite4 and getting my pokemon to 63.
 
I never had to grind in the whole storyline, I kept my Pokemon kinda at the same level, but were never too low to lose a match.
 
I found that after Fighting the first elite four in SS that I had to grind my pokemon alot in the elite four to fight the gyms in kanto, thats the only problem I have had.
 
Bleh. I've been taking my time with the game. I only have 5 badges so far, heh. I've been really sloppy and my Pokemon's levels are really uneven. They go from 20-26 I think. I hate grinding. It's boring and tedious and it drives me crazy. Especially if I have to fight wild Pokemon.

I was using Mew for a while after I got it over wifi, but I stopped because it's way too powerful this early in the game. I might take it with me to the E4. Right now the poor thing is relegated to being my HM slave :<
 
I've been grinding for the last two days after beating the E4 -.-

That said, I've been grinding on swarming Pokémon and today it's Qwilfish, so not only can I "chain" them repeatedly with a super rod, they're level 40 too so I get pretty good exp. Lapras has gone from lvl 66 to lvl 70 in about two hours and I've battled about 90-100 and still no shiny :|
