[michele]

on diamond, i've been going underground a lot recently. yesterday i FINALLY found an old amber so i could get an aerodactyl, i'm still looking for the fossil that has kabuto [bone fossil, i think?], and i have about 10 of every other fossil. :\

 

[-Lewis]

Manaphy and Ditto have been at it all day and I got 25 Phione eggs (hatched 8 of them) ^_^

 

[Amore]

First time ever, found a skull fossil on diamond (replaying). got it brought to life at Oreburgh.

On Platinum, breeding for modest houndour @ HP Grass, not one, out of 100 eggs

 

[bit.trip void]

Currently outside the Elite 4 building, after getting trounced by Cynthia's Garchomp.

I shoul probably go get an Ice type, but enh. Empoleon almost killed it, but then it got a crit Earthquake, which was the end of me.

The only other Pokemon I had problems with was Aaron's Vespiquen, which is really quite annoying. It spams Defend Order, and when I attack it uses Heal Order, and then it hits me with Power Gem and etc.

Empoleon LV 66
Flareon LV 57
Giratina LV 49
Lucario LV 45
Tentacruel LV 50
Staraptor Level 51

I think the team is alright, its just Eartquake constantly 2HKOing my Empoleon, and 1HKOing Flareon.

So what Pokemon should I drop, and for what Ice Type? I have a LV 32 Snover, is that a good idea? Beause I know her Chomp has Flamethrower, and I doubt the Abomasnow is faster.

So yeah, help pl0x.

Uhm, if you are playing Platinum, you could use that Eevee that Bebe gives you and evolve it into Glaceon or Vaporeon.

 

[bit.trip void]

I evolved it into Flareon, :[.

 

[Lycaeus]

I evolved it into Flareon, :[.

Doh >< shoulda noticed that lol. Uhm, breed it and evo it then? Otherwise hmm Bibarel might be able to learn Ice Beam or something.

 

[solopy567]

I used Floatzel for that. Its a pure water type and Chomp doesnt have any electric attacks. and Floatzel is fast too, but it can't outrun Chomp so you gotta rely on luck.

 

[Alpha_Spike]

I recommend teaching ice beam or something like that to Empoleon or use Giratina and have it use a powerful dragon move I.E: Draco Meteor

 

[Lycaeus]

Currently hiking up through Route 216 and Route 217 towards Snowpointe City.

I shoul probably go get an Ice type, but enh. Empoleon almost killed it, but then it got a crit Earthquake, which was the end of me.

What I did was train, train, train until everything was level 65+. Empoleon is naturally bad with its Speed stat, so try Speed EV training? I dunno, my team was level 70 when I took on the E4 for the first time...Let your Empoleon a Shuca Berry before taking on Garchomp (Shuca berries weaken Ground moves used on you once), seeing as it'll go first, and use an Ice Beam, it should knock it out straightaway! I think the lady from Pastoria gives those out sometimes, save and reset to get one. Also, there's a 5% chance that wild Ponyta hold those, so get something with Thief and keep using them on Ponytas to get them too.

~

And now for teh Ikitsumi's news~
Hyouta the Lucario is level 84 now! I evolved my Ivysaur into Venusaur after it finally learned Solarbeam! Now I have a Wartortle to train. :3 THE ONLY STARTERS I LACK ARE THE JOHTO STARTERS!! T____T I can't wait till HG/SS...then I can get them. ;-; After I train Hyouta to 85, I think I'll train Ikazuchi (Luxray) after. Then Makainu (Houndoom) and then Kanshisa (Gardevoir). I need to train my Eeveelutions too. o.o

 

[Gregora]

I'm crying now because I just saw my first shiny in the whole game and Bertha has it! T_T aka her Hippowdon. I'm so sad. :(

Current Team (after beating Bertha):

Glaceon Lv49
Gyarados Lv52
Infernape Lv65
Torterra Lv67
Giratina Lv60
Espeon Lv47

Bebe gave me a female Eevee and now I have a box full of Eevee. Stat neutral and Mild are the most common natures for them, so the Espeon has Mild and Glaceon has a stat neutral nature. :)

 

[bit.trip void]

I managed to beat her, Empoleon survived EQ, and I used Avalance, 4x effecive plus power doubled = YES

 

[Amore]

Bertha has a shiny Hippowdon???

just got a manaphy to hold onto while someone restarts their game

 

[valor555]

I just started to try ev training with my new elekid and magby and hopefully i can get the hang of it and to JessicaH keep working with your empoleon at lvl 70 i was able to take out the entire elite4 with out it fainting

 

[Ikitsumi]

O.o Bertha's Hippowdon is a female, which are black Hippowdon...Either way, the gender and moves should be fixed into the game, so I'm very unsure that it's a shiny.

But anyways, Hyouta is level 85 now! :D Murach the Wartortle is level 33 now, so I'm happy. :3 Now I just have to train Ikazuchi (Luxray), Kanshisa (Gardevoir), and Makainu (Houndoom) to level 85, then I go take on the E4 again~

In the meantime, I'm collecting the different 'nullification' berries, those ones that weaken a super-effective move. Mainly for E4 and for accessories, but also to get multiples of everything. Just harvested 5 Occa berries. :D

 

[HeartGold95]

Cool! Earlier I got a shiny Egg tododile with dragon dance! Lucky me! :) also a Shiny Treecko! Though I lvl'd them up so they are Feraligtr(aquagtr) and Sceptile(redshine)!

 

[Ikitsumi]

Leveled Ikazuchi to level 83~ :D

I also got the three different Wormadams and a Mothim, and my Whismur evolved into Loudred.

 

[Alpha_Spike]

Started a new game and thanks to a friend have now got every starter from all gens. Also will soon have my dream team of: Charizard, Feraligater, Sceptile, Salamence, Pidgeot, Tyranitar. And now able to get the pokemon that Unidentified Flying Aces is holding for me ^^
