  • 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 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 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 :|
