Pokémon Chit-Chat

Nope,thats why I would use psychic on it,if they switch out,the next pokemon will take the damage for it.

Except if the next Pokemon is a Dark-type, that is, which would be likely with prediction.

Not everyone you'll face will switch Pokemon (if they do, it prolongs their defeat)

Incorrect. Most high-grade players will see the attack coming and switch accordingly, and switching hardly "prolongs a defeat." In fact, a well-placed switch-in can completely turn a battle around.

 

[Sweet Candace]

True, but not everyone knows what they're doing...

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh,I just found a shiny magikarp at a chain of 3...but its stats suck.

If a player does not know how to switch out or predict, they probably have no idea about EVs, either, in which case they are going to lose one way or another.

I'm going to give you a little example.

Enemy switches in Tyranitar!
You switch in Jolteon!

You switch to Gengar!
Tyranitar uses Earthquake!
The attack doesn't effect Gengar...

See what I did here? I switched, not only keeping one of my Pokemon alive, but also putting the opponent in an immediately threatening situation (Focus Blast hurts like hell). If I didn't switch, I would have lost Jolteon. So, does switching still 'prolong defeat'?

 

[Sweet Candace]

It depends on the other Pokemon the Trainer has

 

[airconditioning]

Then you predict what the opponent will send out, and act accordingly. Unless this is the early game, in which case, it may be best to Focus Blast just to be sure.

Shoul I evolve my shiny magikarp? im playing on a rom....

 

[Sweet Speed]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh,I just found a shiny magikarp at a chain of 3...but its stats suck.

Wow, you're very lucky. I mean, a chain of 3, cool. You can either put it up for a good trade if you don't want to keep it bacause of it's stats; I know I'll pay loads for it!

 

[Sweet Candace]

Red Gyarados is cool. Depends if you already have a Water-type or a Surfer on your team already

 

[Detox]

Im on a rom,and its stats are preeeeeeeeeety suckish

 

[Forci Stikane]

Shoul I evolve my shiny magikarp? im playing on a rom....

First, send me a copy of the save. *shiftyeyes*

You could duplicate the save first, but yes, you should probably evolve it.

 

[sneaky sneasel]

hey guys g/s remakes ne1plz reply

 

[Detox]

Yes,they are real because Nintendo copyrighted the names Duskgold and Dawnsilver

 

[Forci Stikane]

A name can be copyrighted for years and have nothing come out of it, so that is not proof.

 

[Sweet Candace]

Everyone wants a G/S/C remake. Why don't we just make one game if they do, it would cut months/years off of the time it would to create all three. If we have a Generation 5, the G/S/C remake (if they make one) might be apart of it

 

[Detox]

I hope we can go to Orre in generation 5

 

[Sweet Candace]

They'd more likely create a pair of new games before we dawdle into remakes...'course we might see those remakes in Gen 4 (if they do decide to make them)
