restarted my solo run challenge using platinum instead of diamond as i can battle the elite 4 at higher levels and all of the gym leaders again, just about to challenge roark to a gym battle

Prinplup Lv20
 
Just went to Newmoon Island using the Platinum Wi-Fi event, and tried to get a shiny Darkrai for a few hours. Caught it a few minutes ago; it's Timid, and even has great IVs :D

EDIT: Also hatched a quint-flawless Wurmple yesterday; I know it's basically useless, but I was really bored. It evolves into Cascoon, by the way. I'm still trying to get a Silcoon for my dex in Pearl; I've evolved about 10 different Wurmples. They all turned into Cascoon :(

EDIT2: Tinhead Bruce, the Attack could be 30 :P My Heatran is Naive too; however, it has HP Electric instead (31/31/31/30/31/31). Nice job, though.

just defeated Gardenia, Turtwig went down in one shot, Cherrim took about 3 hits to defeat as it used leech seed, Roserade knocked Prinplup out so i had to switch switch out to my hm slave to revive it, once the hm slave was knocked out i switched back to Prinplup, Prinplup used Peck and got Roserade's HP roughly to halfway, it used magical leaf and a sitrus berry (grrr), Roserade used Magical leaf again leaving me with 10 HP left, Gardenia used a super potion on it as i restored Prinplup to full health, Roserade used Stun Spore which missed and i used Peck on it finally knocking Roserade out and winning the match.

My team:

Prinplup Lv33 Brine, Peck, Bubblebeam, Metal Claw

Max HP: 97
Attack: 56
Defense 64

I'm trying to breed some egg moved pokemon. I still haven't caught Dialga and Palkia.
 
Well, I've just beat gardina and fantina in platinum again.

Gardina was one of the stupidest battles I've ever done, I traded pokemon over from my other game and almost every other turn it was "Won't obey," "turned away", "took a nap". Like WTF!

Fantina was so easy

Currently battling my way to get to the 4th Gym.
I caught a bibareal lvl 18 to take over my bidoof ^_^.

Wichu, you abuse RNG tho =p
 
just beaten crasher wake, i forgot to post when i battled fantina and maylene, his pokemon were all ohkoed by Empoleon's grass knot

Team

Empoleon Lv55

I cant be bothered to post his stats right now, i'll include them after the next gym battle
 
Before I rechallenge the Elite 4 again, I need to train Kanshisa (Gardevoir) to level 80 or higher. Ikazuchi (Luxray) is still level 78, so a few more levels and it'll be satisfactory. The same goes for Makainu (Houndoom.) Hyouta (Lucario), Hirenka (Empoleon), and Mukamisori (Staraptor) are above level 80 and in good shape for battling. :3

I'm gonna start breeding more Pokemon again soon. Maybe some Charmanders. :D
 
Dear Journal,
Today was an amazing day, the team and I decide to rechallenge the Elite Four! Well I brought Fen along for the ride, he needed to be trained, and today I got to do it. Olina, Viola, Apollo, Cakuo, and Kaehi accompany me today. As usual the Elite Four, and Champion were easy. I think I need to train Fen for my little brother, he's such the cutie! Tomorrow will be a grand day, I think the team and I will capture Heatran, but that area is so good to train in, I don't know if I want to give it up just yet. Now more about the Elite Four, Kaehi & Cakuo swept Aaron with Flamethrower, and Air Slash. Apollo's Earthquake worked wonders on Flint, and Olina Shadow Balled Lucain away! Cynthia was surprised to see me, after her previous defeat I was sure she would come back stronger. The same moves, the same style, and it all ended the same. I won, and that was that.

Good Night,
Peace And Love.

(Olina = Gengar
Viola = Kingdra
Apollo = Torterra
Cakuo = Togekiss
Kaehi = Garchomp
Fen = Finneon/Lumineon)
 
PLATINUM - E4 CHALLENGE AND AFTER THAT
It took me 4 tries to defeat the E4 and Champion. My wits and strategies had to be put to the test as Sebastian, Stanford, Hearts, Tails, and Gracia battled with the cruel Elite Four who never ceased to piss me off when things went out of plan.

(On the second try, I had defeated the E4 and got to Cynthia, who defeated me with her last Pokemon - Roserade, who used Extrasensory on my Infernape, who was the last survivor under her intense battling. I had to be sent back to the start at once. However, since I have seen all 210 Pokemon, my Pokedex was upgraded and I was given the Poke Radar beforehand. And the Pal Park was unlocked too!)

After defeating the Pokemon League, my childhood friend, Yukio, invited me to the Battle Zone. I got there via the port in Snowpoint City. When I arrived, I saw Yukio, who urged me to battle Volkner and Flint, the latter whom I've just battled in a few moments ago.

I went to the Resort Area, and guess what? Someone gave me a villa for free! He said it was from a person who wanted to collect rare stones and is very rich... I wonder who that can be.

Anyway, I went to Stark Mountain and found no other people but TEAM GALACTIC! Mars and Jupiter went all out on me one by one, but I fended off well. They quit Team Galactic, and after travelling through Stark Mt. with Buck, we caught Charon with the help of a handsome rock. I mean Looker.

By wasting 57 Poke balls and 6 Dusk Balls, I finally caught a Hardy Darkrai with a Dusk Ball. It "likes to flee" and "happily eats anything".

Team:
Sebastian (Infernape) - Lv. 61
Stanford (Staraptor) - Lv. 58
Hearts (Gastrodon) - Lv. 57
Tails (Luxray) - Lv.55
Gracia (Glaceon) - Lv. 57
HM Slave (Bibarel) - Lv. 33

//hugs teh will to survive trainer people

Get your Giratina's ready, because I'm coming !! >-<

Okie, the story so far:.

Lesee, after making several return trips to the Pokemon Center regarding 'I am an Idiot issues', and finally having all the necessary HMs to get through, I take Mt Coronot by stoooorm !!! >:3

Now, despite having various OTHUR LEAGUE badges, the fact that I have only 7 from Sinnoh seems to tick off my Zangoose which results in her not listening to a word I say.

Shoot.

I do make it to the Spear Pillar, kill all the Galactic peoples and then

oh no

THEM.

Luckily Pearl, my baby my rival, shows up around now so I don't have to face smelly Mars and Jupiter all by myself. I appreciate the sentiment Pearl GET BETTER POKEMON

We manage to faint their Pokemon (though in the effort I realise my hatred for Purugly).

And THEN Cyrus (that FREAK) is all something something mildly intimidating but I'm too busy trying to make my Zangoose like me to care.

until palkia and dialga appear

Well that kinda makes the old games look pretty nut wurth thar money, don't it ?!

So ya, Giratina appears also, jumps out the screen, I freak out, wake up my cousin, cousin hits me, and finally:.

THE DISTORTION WORLD *W*

Finally, I've seen the adds and waited so loooong!!!

Twenty Minutes of wondering Around:


I conforking hate this place

Ok

ok

There was a waterfall in the adds!! Pass the waterfall!! Check!! Now waht-

oo hi Mespirit

Something about rocks. Ok I got it

Yay I'm almost here!! ^^

..

Wait, HOW DID CYNTHIA GET THAR SO F- nvm

I understand my Zangoose's pain :(

Get to Cyrus blah blah balh, wait for Cynthia to kick his as-

Oh, you are kidding me

Declare hatred for Platinum and beat Cyrus on my seventh go.

Went something like this:.

Put Zangoose first. She ignored every command I gave and I LOST THE BATTLE.

Put Rhydon first. Gave him Quick Claw. Houndoom fainted him with one Dark Pulse.

Put Rhydon first. Gave him Quick Claw. Houndoom fainted him with one Dark Pulse.

Put Seadra first. Houndoom fainted her with one Dark Pulse.

Put Rhydon first. Gave him Quick Claw. Mnaged to hit Houndoom with Hammer Arm. Still faint to a Dark Pulse.

Get to Gyrados. Loose.

Made Cyrus eat Zangoose. Winner of the world and the game. Hate Cyrus.


...Caught Giratina with a Master Ball. Bored with this game now. Will kill Volknor tomorrow.


Yes, I know I'm epic...

Current Team:.

Rhydon/ Rex Lv46
Zangoose/Star Lv73
Seadra/Phoenix Lv39
Pikachu/Aster Lv 39
Xatu/Jun Lv38
Giratina/Haine Lv47​

his stats;

HP: 264
Attack: 179
Defense: 195
Sp.Atk: 202
Sp.Def: 156
Speed: 145

Holy god yeah I beat Cynthia!!!!!

That was the hardest battle EVER!!!!!!!

Her Garchomp was really really really hard to beat. I had to revive my pokemon every time until his PP for dragon rush and earthquake run out, and so it started using flamethrower on Giratina, so I took the chance to revive my pokemon for the ones that are left. Eventually I killed it with Giratina's dragon claw after Cynthia didnt heal it a second time.

In the end it was my Staraptor vs her Roserade. One Brave Bird and it was out cold.

Man that was hard.
