HeartGold/SoulSilver - Travel Journal

Just arriving in Viridian City.

Rex/Larvitar - lvl. 29 (in-training)
Beranabus/Stantler - lvl. 50
Korso/Rhydon - lvl. 55
Tex/Jolteon - lv. 58
Quest/Gyarados - lvl. 55
Gamble/Charizard - lvl. 55

Badges: 14/16
 
Totally completed my desired pokemon team.

Anyways, I'm in a bit of a bind since I do not know where to go now. I forgot, although I did finish beating Archer of Team Rocket and disbanded them completely. Guess it's off to fight Clair.
 
About to restart my HG for (I think) the 7th time. This time, I'm doing a "no starter" run. I'm gonna try to use pokes I haven't before, and so far I planned out:
ninetales (trade over), gengar, jumpluff, lanturn, noctowl, and scizor (used in a previous game, but didn't get all 16 badges in that one).
 
Decided that my team sucked, so I'm currently grinding to level 50's with the new members. The only thing left to do is get the 8th Kanto badge - the Earth Badge - from Blue.

Team:
Typhlosion (lvl 55)
Gyarados (lvl 57)
Dodrio (in training) (lvl 30)
Pupitar (in training) (lvl 32)
Jolteon (lvl 60)
Stantler (lvl 53)
 
Beat bugsy today, and managed to get 3 of my wanted pokes. But I've changed my previous team layout. I managed to get a timid gastly, hoppip (now a skiploom), impish sandshrew, and adamant zubat (in friend ball!) May or may not use sandshrew in the long run.

EDIT: In the end, zubat didn't make the cut. A scyther (now a scizor) beat him out. After beating whitney thanks to skiploom, and Morty with sandslash knowing shadow claw, I evolved vulpix, and skipped the lighthouse and we right to Cianwood and beat chuck. Jumpluff did a superb job resisting all of his poliwrath's attacks. But I'm still looking for a chinchou worthy of being in my team.

Also, earlier I was farming for apricots (reset clock to 23:59), and the moment the clock turned over to 00:00, the apricot tree sparkled and the new apricot appeared! I'd never seen that before!
EDIT: Caught a calm/volt absorb chinchou in a lure ball, taught it thunderbolt. Time to win at pokemon.

I just got pokemon heart gold at gamestop today and I just receive a cyndiquil and a running shoes and I'm on the trail to Mr. Pokemon house.
 
Okay boys and girls. It's a long story. So sit back with a nice cup of...COFFEE! o_O; And read this mumbo jumbo of junko. Let's see how much I remember from when I first got the game.

September 26th 2010, I go to Gamestop, and for an early b-day present I get Soul Silver. So i'm like okay who do I choose. I chose Cyndaquil. Cute. Now thanks to my Aspergers/OCD/ADD/Anxiety/Bipolar/Depression, I can't EV or IV train for my frickin' LIFE! So i'm leveling up everyone equally cause i'm stupid like that lalalalalalalalalalalala. Oh boy and the Pokewalker is so MUCH fun. Put a Weedle in there and you get instant moonwalk entertaintment. Until I get to Cinnawood Island, i'm like stuck with mostly level 14 Pokemon so I took a break til about a month ago, grinded the Pokes a bit and bam got the 5th badge, then I got the 6th badge, cheated a little with tons of revives via the Pokewalker with the 7th badge, until DUNDUNDUN, the RADIO TOWER IS TAKEN OVER! And I can't beat Proton! WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! Screw this. Dodododododododododododo Today I ...*takes out Pearl* WEAPONS! *uses her bro's DS to transfer weapons from Pearl to Soul Silver in my DS* Bobo the Swampert, Tai the Blaziken, Jax the Sceptile, and an extreemly random level 90 Groudon who's incredibly emo. xD So the five of us are like BAM POW WE DESTROYED THE TOWER! *cough* I mean saved...SAVED! So then we got the eigth badge and we beat some Kimno Girl butt, then Elm was like DUDE I GOTS A MASTERBALL! Okay free master ball for me. YAY! So we got a Lugia via a Heavy ball (thanks Kurt from Azela town), yes I still have my unused master ball. And then we go to the league and we were all like BAM POW BAM! GET A LIFE DRAGON LANCE LOSER!......

Then the five of us, me, Jax, Tai, Bobo, and Groudon sat there through the LAMEST CREDITS EVER! Bored out of our skull.

Sooooooo we're back in New Bark Town, Elm gives us a Ticket to Kanto, we go to Olivine City and we were about to get on the boat, but Oak here wanted to upgrade the dex, oh fine here it is. UPGRADED! We just stood there face to face with the man who will let us on the ship.....

Then I saved the game cause i'm too lazy to go to Kanto right now.

The end. Merry Christmas and a Happy 2011. Hopefully.
 
Last Night:

Defeated Red.
Caught Ho-oh.
Caught Mewtwo.
Caught Zapdos.
Caught Articuno.

This morning:
Caught Suicune.
 
Just got Soul Silver for Christmas!
Training for Falkner.

Team:
Totodile (Toto) level 12
Spearow (Beak) level 11
Rattata (Seeds) level 11
Geodude (Geo) level 13
Paras (Paris) level 11
Ponyta (Flare) level 10

Spearow, Geodude, Paras and Ponyta obtained VIA pokewalker ;D gotta love that thing
 
I finally got to buy HeartGold for Christmas today :3 *squees*

So yeah ..let the red-haired outside the lab push me around a bit cause its kinda funny... hee hee <:3 Picked a Cyndaquil ;3 Did the whole Mr. Pokémon thing yada yada... headed to Violet city... ripped through the sprout tower with Cyndaquil with Ember [who then promptly evolved into a Quilava :D] and took on Falkner which was a quick but painful [for his Pidgey and Pigeotto anyway mwuhahaha :P]And then I caught a Mareep.... cause I LOVE Ampharos for a pokemon :3 And now I'm sorta hanging around Violet city, realising I need to stop squeeing at how cute it is that I an talk to my Quilava and get to Azalea town :P
 
After deciding to play my game after about 2 months, I tried out the Pokethalon about 100 times and got a massive load of points, as well as all the medals for all my current party members ... it's really not that hard.

I head out of the dome and decided to try out the bug catching contest.
I suck by the way and lost because I saw this really awesome Caterpie ... Well, I thought it was awesome. Stupid-guy-with-the-cap didn't.
 
Sounds pretty cool. I just got HeartGold just a day before Christmas, so I'm a latecomer to the Gen II remake scene.

Some critical things I've done so far:
- Chose Cyndaquil (Harute) as my starter
- Pokemon caught along routes: Hoothoot (Zero), Bellsprout (traded for Rocky)
- Catch many Pokemon via PokeWalker (Ponyta, Spearow, Magnemite, just to name a few)
- Defeated Sprout Tower, 1st Gym

Current team: Harute, Zero, Spearow, Rocky (all Level 9-10)
 
Ok. I'm at Maghognay town right now. I was training my sentret and just evolve golbat into crowbat. Its really awesome. :D
 
So I got HeartGold a few days before Christmas. Just yesterday I finished beating Blue. I guess I'll train my pokemon to defeat Red...but that's gonna take awhile. T_T Maybe I'll go catch some legendaries... :|
 
Just bought Soul Silver today, I'm about to go start playing it now.
Planned team:
Feraligatr
Gengar
Ampharos
Togekiss
Scizor
Magmortar

Some won't evolve until after the first E4 but oh well.
 
Today I started over my Soul Silver, I will be keeping it updated in my sig. My goal is to finish Soul Silver and catch every Pokemon. I'll be doing a lot of pokemon catching during the playthrough, but I won't be focusing in on catching Pokemon. At least not until I beat Red.
The main team I will be using will be:
Typhlosion
Gengar
Ampharos
Scizor
Gyrados
Beedrill

My sig's current team is wrong right now, that is the team I had earlier, but I'm starting over right now for Typhlosion not Feraligatr.
