Question of the Day

It's a close race between Full Restore and Hyper Potion. I used to use Full Restores more often, as I tended to deal with a lot more status problems, but I've definitely started using more Hyper Potions in recent years (especially if I can wait to heal my status problems with a Full Heal after the battle). I also couple Hyper Potions with Revives a lot. On net, though, the winner is probably Full Restore.
 
What healing item do you use most often?
Hyper Potion
or Full Restore. Hyper Potion is cost efficient with decent healing value and Full Restore that I can always trust to keep the battle going
 
Hyper Potion for sure. Most of the time my Pokémon don't have much over 200HP unless I'm using Snorlax or Lapras. I use Full Restores only if there's heavy damage plus a status condition.
 
Revives, if anything at all. I rarely ever use healing items in game, aside from a revive or maybe a potion/full restore once in a while. I just rather drop everything and run back to a Pokemon Center than heal most of the time. The only time where I use them is when I am stuck in a middle of a place where I can't access that, such as the Elite 4 battles.
 
What healing item do you use most often?

Lemonade, Soda Pop, Moo Moo Milk - those types of healing items! They're the most cost effective in the game, and you can even get them for "free" by using the Poké Miles on the Global Link.
 
What healing item do you use most often?

It mainly depends on which stage of the game I'm at, but I do love using Lemonade, Soda Pop and Full Restore especially.
 
What healing item do you use most often?

For me I think it tends to be MooMoo Milk, since they're very price efficient and heal a good portion for as little as they cost.
 
My go-to is always Moo Moo Milk. They're always easy to buy in bulk, and I think they're actually the most cost-effective healing item, in HP-per-dollar terms. When I challenge the Elite Four though, I'll usually go for Full Restores if I have the money for it. Much more efficient to restore a Pokemon's health and eliminate any status ailments at the same time.

Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?​
 
Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?

I usually end up having an MVP powerhouse, just because of the fact that I tend to use underdogs in-game, but I'll end up using one or two really powerful Pokémon, but I try to keep it as balanced as possible, at least level-wise. It drives me crazy when there's a big level gap between my Pokémon, so they're rarely more than 5 levels apart from each other.
 
What's your most often used healing item?
Either Hyper Potions or Full Restores. You don't get to be champion of the Pokemon League without knowing how to spam Full Restores after all.

Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?

I used to have a MVP powerhouse on my team back in the day, but now I'm aiming to keep my team balanced. During my Ruby and Diamond run I was pretty close to have a MVP powerhouse, Blaziken for the former and Dialga (sort of) for the latter.
 

Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?
I rather like something in between and being all offense could lead a risk of losing
 
Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?
As in have a really powerful mon(eg a psuedo legend) or a mon who is at a really massive level that dominates everything? In that case, back during my earliest nuzzing days, I almost always had this kind of thing, because since those were my first runs, and I didn't want to fail. Nowadays, probably not, I would rather have everything balanced.

But the exception would be my latest run, it's of a hack, and maybe there would be things I wouldn't expect, so I definitely have some really strong mons in it for emergencies XD.
 
Yea, this has definitely happened to me. Not counting the times I left all my money with my mom in HG/SS, this happened to me back when I first played Yellow, and I kept losing to Brock (because he's literally the hardest gym leader ever in Yellow when all you have is a Pikachu and a bunch of Normal and Flying-types). Between constantly losing to him and going back to buy potions, I ended up penniless.

Question of the Day

What healing item do you use most often?​

I rely on Full Restores a lot during post game! There's also the Revival Herb during the main plot stuff!

My go-to is always Moo Moo Milk. They're always easy to buy in bulk, and I think they're actually the most cost-effective healing item, in HP-per-dollar terms. When I challenge the Elite Four though, I'll usually go for Full Restores if I have the money for it. Much more efficient to restore a Pokemon's health and eliminate any status ailments at the same time.

Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?​

As a child I tend to have the starters as my MVP, as a veteran trainer I found the importance of a balanced team! Needless to say, my in-game team is balanced!

I'm bad at creating competitive teams though, haha!
 
Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?

When I was younger and new to the games I tended to overpower my starter, but now I act like a smart trainer and balance everything out.
 
Do you tend to have one MVP powerhouse on your team, or do you like to keep your team balanced?

Balanced team, always. I learned from my early days of playing Pokemon that having only one reliable team member will not get you anywhere. Usually the first one that I catch after the starter ends up getting replaced because it becomes underpowered as you get into the higher levels (most of the time it's the regional bird).
 
I have definitely aimed for balanced teams, since about gen IV, that way everyone on my team is strong against something and can do something about plus come in during emergencies if a rare opportunity presents itself to battle against a Pokemon its weak against. This all means keeping the levels close together, even if that means having to go through some horribly tough battles to get the experience, making the team very balanced. Within that team though, there is always one Pokemon that i know i can rely to get m out of any sticky situation that may arise. This past Pokemon X i played, that Pokemon was Mega Lucario, though never more than 3 levels higher than anyone else, until my late game Noivern and Goodra came along, (more often it was towards the bottom of my team in terms of levels) i knew i could always count on it for a OHKO or 2HKO.

So i had a balanced team but within that team there was a very definite leader.
 
Do you have an MVP Powerhouse on your team or prefer to keep it balanced?

Honestly I do tend to have one team Member who is several levels higher than everyone else. In my Original Sapphire Run it was Sceptile, In Platinum Empoleon, Black it was Gothitelle, Most recent White 2 Lilligant but most playthroughs it has been Gardevoir.

In a normal playthrough I have one overleveled Pokemon 4 about the level they should be and one Pokémon for HM's.
 
Do you have an MVP Powerhouse on your team or prefer to keep it balanced?

I too prefer to keep things balanced most of the time, unless i'm really trying to get through the game quickly. This is the kind of thing that won't exactly slide if you're doing a Nuzlocke or something! There you have to grind like heck.
