Got myself a shiny Totodile and a shiny Sneasel, which I am now EV-training. They will be sent to my SS game afterwards. Also I won't let Croconaw and Sneasel evolve, I just don't like their evolutions.
I'm so happy with them <3
Off to Twinleaf.. I'm raising the Attack stat there by fishing -_-

I found that Lithium, my Lucario, was actually not helping my team very much, so I had a flick through the pokédex and did a few trades while I decided on a sixth team member, and Sodium the Salamence found her way onto my team. It took me a few hours to train her up so she was equal with the rest of my team, but it was worth it, and she's now my favourite pokémon to take chaining with her diverse moveset.
I also have EV trained 3 pokémon for the battle tower, and will finish that team when I find an attack-boosting power item. It consists of Bastiodon, Dunsparce and Kidoking, and made me very happy and accomplished when they were finished training, and they're being leveled up in my Diamond game now.
Now onto chaining. Well I decided I wanted my own shiny, and have chained Castform, Dunsparce, Spoink, Hondour, Doduo and Slakoth, and haven't got a single shiny to show for it. Now I'm chaining Pinsir, I can't hold my breath!
Team:
Sodium, Salamence, Female, Rock Smash/Flamethrower/Zen Headbutt/Dragonbreath
Flameéd, Combusken, Female, Ember/Quick Attack/Peck/Focus Energy (@EXP Share for 'dex fills)
Propane, PorygonZ, Ice Beam/Psychic/Signal Beam/Thief
Carbon, Charizard, Male, Heat Wave/Fly/Defog/Cut
Lutetium, Leafeon, Male, Magical Leaf/Dig/Aerial Ace/Strength
Ethanol, Empoleon, Male, Surf/Waterfall/Rock Climb/Earthquake

I've been running around Sinnoh finding items looking/breeding for shinies training pokemon trying to build a team I like but I can't settle on the right pokes.
I've also been considering getting another Platinum as I want to start over but I will never delete my current save file

Currently, I'm chaining Pachirisu at Valley Windworks in my Diamond. I'm at 32 at the moment, but I'm trying to slowly nurse up the chain, as the last thing I want is to break it this far into the process. And yes, I'm looking for shinies; I've got a KO'd Calm Synchronizing Ralts at the top to increase my chances of getting Calm ones.
For some reason, I feel that this chain will yield a high number of shinies if I don't break it. I already have one Calm shiny Pachirisu, but I want one with better IVs, which is why I'm chaining in the first place. :)

Decided that I disliked my illegal Diamond Monotype challenge (literally everything was traded in from another game as an egg) and deleted it. I have decided to do a Generation Duo Run with Phanpy and Natu instead. Now I just have to catch a female Phanpy in Ruby safari zone to send over to my other Diamond to breed. Great.

Also hatching Totodiles, Cyndaquils, and Bulbasaur's for my future Pokemon shop here on PC, and trying to hatch a shiny Poochyena, lolol.

I beat the Elite Four, and you could never guess how happy I am, it's been awhile since I have beaten the Elite Four in ANY Pokemon game, infact, I think the last time I did it was about 3yrs ago. Anyways, I'm surprised on how easy the Elite Four is, Aaron is quite easy, taken down mostly by my Toxicroak, and my Luxray did some damage too.
Bertha = Shiny Lumineon Sweep.
Flint was.. Easy? I only had one Pokemon that could sweep his team, and that Pokemon is rather Frail, so I used a mixture of Lumineon/Garchomp.
Lucian is the toughest of the Elite Four, because Psychic types are Awesome.. Torterra/Garchomp/Froslass combo in there, Froslass was helpful in this fight though, because she is so speedy.
Finally, Cynthia:
Terribly hard. I took a risky move here, I lead with my Froslass so I could set up hail, because I knew what was coming next. I immediately Switched out, and went to Garchomp to take down Spiritomb, finally, her own Garchomp came out, A.K.A the team sweeper. I went into Froslass, and it outspeeded me, and hit me with a Flamethrower, I was terrified because my Froslass usually doesn't take super effective hits very fond, but, I was down to 17hp.
The Hail stopped.
I was screwed, I couldn't hit that Garchomp with Blizzard knowing my luck, but, believe it or not, I hit it, and Garchomp was down, the rest was easy, next she went to Lucario, I earthquaked it with my Torterra, then Togekiss, easily taken out by Luxray, then Milotic, kinda scared me because Milotic is awesome. But, it was taken out rather easily with a combo of Luxray/Garchomp. Then, Roserade comes in, Dig from Garchomp, almost killed the Roserade, then it Toxic'd me, I just Dragon Clawed it for the win. Now, I am the champion.
