Pokemon Game Quirks?

[Taisuru]

Is there anything you always do in pokemon games?

For me, I'm always the girl in Crystal ("OMG IT R TEH INOVATIV!"), And I always choose Bulbasaur, Totodile, and Torchic in their respective games (God forbid someone put more than one of these as a starter in a hack, let alone all 3, my head might explode with indecision.) and finally, always go by ASH in Yellow (And GARY for the rival).

So what do you do?

 

[I Laugh at your Misfortune!]

And I always choose Bulbasaur, Totodile, and Chikorita in their respective games (God forbid someone put more than one of these as a starter in a hack, let alone all 3, my head might explode with indecision.)

Weren't they together in Gen II?

I always call my guy Hiro in Gen III for some reason :P

 

[Taisuru]

Haha, oops, meant torchic ^_^;

 

[Shen]

Weren't they together in Gen II?

I always call my guy Hiro in Gen III for some reason :P

I used to call my Gen II character Hiro everytime too...
I tend to give my trainers' their offical Japanese name, because I find that they sound better (weeaboo ftw). I can't stand the names May and Dawn.
Oh and I'm usually the girl character because their designs are usually better (save Gen II). Seriously, male D/P character looks awful. Mostly the hat.

 

[fenyx4]

I always pick Fire starters :), I always leave my legendaries with their species name (unless I want to change it, like UXIE to UXLE, which is rare for me to do anyway), I always nickname all of my non-Legendary Pokemon, and I always name myself and my rival based on what we "looks" like, basing it on appearances :). That's pretty much it!

 

[Broken.Promise.]

I always have a fire starter. If I want to try a game without fire starters, I choose water. I NEVER choose Grass, and I don't know why ^_^

Methinks that's the only quirk I have...

 

[He Trembles on Your Breath]

I have a weird thing about HMs. I like the pokemon to look like they could actually perform the move. For example I can't use a Zubat for flying on because, it would be almost impossible due to it's tiny size.

 

[ckret2]

I ALWAYS choose Treecko. No matter what. In all the other generations, I've tried each starter at least once, even if it was only for a game that lasted to the second gym before I started over. (Except for D/P, but that's because I've only started two games. When I get Platinum I'm using the third starter, Turtwig.) But even if I start a new game VOWING that I'll try one of the other starters for once, maybe Torchic so that I'll have a Fire/Fighting, maybe Mudkip because... because it's Mudkip, at the last minute I always choose Treecko anyway.

I also tend to not train much at all, especially before the Elite 4. If the Elite 4 pummel me several times in a row, sometimes I'll make a half-hearted attempt at EV training and battle a few Graveler to raise my team's defense, but then I'll give up and challenge the Elite 4 after only two or three of the team level up. So when I beat the champion, almost all of my team is horribly under-leveled. When I beat Cynthia, my strongest Pokémon was six levels below her weakest, and there was over a ten-level gap between the average level of her Pokémon and the average level of mine. But I'm fine with the level gaps, they make the games a lot more challenging.

 

[Oblivion Reaper 2.0]

I always choose water pokemon.

 

[Charmageddon]

Unless I'm monotyping, I always, always have at least one fire, water, grass, electric and flying pokemon on my team. It just seems wrong not to.

 

[Fed]

Uhh. I always nickname everything I catch... The nicknames vary from snippets of the actual name, to characters from my fave shows (Lost, Heroes, Prison Break etc. <333) Also, I name myself Fed (teehee) and my rival is usually the name from the manga.

 

[nemesish]

1- I always give the player/rival their Pokemon Special japanese names
2- I always replicate Ash´s original team (or an evolved form of) in every game (Venusaur-Charizard-Blastoise-Pidgeot-Butterfree-Pikachu) with their color in japanese as names (Midori-Aka-Ao-Chairo-Murasaki-Kiiro)

 

[Bibliophibian]

I always pick Cyndaquil to be my starter in G/S/C.
I never pick the Grass starter in any game, though I did pick Bulbasaur once in R/B to see if I'd like it.
I always use at least one Normal type on my team, even if I have to shuffle my planned team around a lot to fit it in.

 

[The Red Chain]

I always have a fire starter. If I want to try a game without fire starters, I choose water. I NEVER choose Grass, and I don't know why ^_^

Omg, I do the same thing haha. X3

My quirks;

• I always choose the Fire or Water starter. Never the Grass Starter.
• In generation one I always call my rival Gary.
• I always, no matter what, have a Pokemon that's psychic or can learn psychic moves on my team. [In generation one I would always have a Butterfree with Confusion and/or Psybeam]
  
• My trainer [girl] is always named Kawaii. [Only past the Crystal game though of course~]
• I have always nicknamed every Pokemon I catch [Since R/B/Y] and I always will.

 

[⋚Raika⋚]

I always name my character Raika or my name, and I always use these nicknames for my pokemon:
PKM 1: Raikari
PKM 2: Hikari
PKM 3: Rika
for pokemons' 4 to 6 I would make up something, but Raikari, Hikari and Rika are a MUST on my team. :)

 

[.Ozymandias]

I never have a double-up of 1st types (IE I have a Torterra and a Gastrodon on Pearl, and though they share Ground secondary typing, because their primary type is different, they stay), and I always have a Fire-Grass-Water-Flying main team, and depending on the other members, the last two slots can be filled by a ground, electric, psychic or dark-type.

 

[thedestinedblade]

Hm, I guess just using everyone evenly and keeping they're levels the same. I'm not sure that's a "quirk" since probably a lot of people do that. :\

 

[BeatTheSpecialStage]

• In generation one I always pick either Bulbasaur or Charmander.
• I always name myself Beat in the games.
• I always name my rival either Caleb (recently) or Jacob (awhile ago)
• In generation two I always either pick Totodile or Cyndaquil.
• In generation three I always pick either Torchic or Treecko.
• In generation four I always pick either Piplup or Turtwig.
• The first PKMN I always catch is that region's respective main flying PKMN (Kanto's being Pidgey, Johto's being Hoothoot I think, Hoenn's being Taillow, and Sinnoh's being Starly.)
• I'll add more later.
