The opposite is the case with me. Right now I'm trying to get the Surfing Pikachu. Already got a Light Orb from the DowsingMCHN, too.

What are the conditions for a trainer to show up at the Viridian Trainer House? Just trading, or do I have to use the Pokewalker?

Having Pikachu fight a Pikachu in Yellow Forest on the PokeWalker reminds me of that scene from the first movie where the two Pikachu are taking turns slapping the hell out of each other.

So I spend a week calling gym leaders so that I can fight them all in order and set up today what was my best day in pokemon gaming thus far.

I plow through the gym leaders, I head to the elite 4 and get a rematch with Silver, fight the E4 and Lance, and after that's said and done, I grab my HM Whore and head up Mount Silver. MAX REPELS ARE GO the whole way up, I swallow back fear and face the strongest in game trainer of all time.

I'll admit he had me out leveled but I had him out strategied, battle's pretty atypical till he's staring down death by Tentacruel vs his Charizard. A couple flinches and one or two full restores later he finally says "FUCK YOU HAL" and uses Flare Blitz on Tentacruel, down it goes and the recoil damage on Charizard isn't to shab-... Wait... What? Did... Did it just get K.O.'d by the Hail?

HAHAHA! IT DID! Well I guess I won't ge- MY STARTER GETS ALL THE EXP!? KALOO KALAY!

Bones, don't be such a big baby. It's no more unfair than paralyzing your opponent, Attracting them, using a move that has a high chance of Critical Striking, or any other luck-based move.

Double Team (and Smokescreen) is a perfectly acceptable move, you just mad cuz your luck sucks.

No.2039
>>2037
I got no problem with Smokescreen or Sand Attack. You can just switch your Pokemon out to get rid of that. And there are Pokemon immune to paralysis, and entire types immune to Thunder Wave and Glare. Raising your critical hit rate is a viable strategy.

But Double Team and Minimize are bitch moves.

>Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire continued the tradition allowing players to trade Pokémon between two cartridges, this time via the Game Boy Advance Link Cable. Unlike previous games, Ruby and Sapphire were not backward compatible with Generations I and II. This prompted remakes of the original games, Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. Trading between these games and the third Hoenn-based game, Pokémon Emerald, is possible. These games are also the first to support linking between different language versions for trading and battling.

>While Ruby and Sapphire cannot trade directly with the Generation IV games Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, a player's Pokémon may be permanently transferred via Pal Park, and some Generation III Pokémon can be found using the dual-slot mode.

Basically, the Link Cables just didn't fit, so for trading, you just had to quit.

As usual, Serebii.net has the answer.

>>There is no way to lose your Pokemon while it is in the Pokéwalker. Running out of batteries will simply make you lose steps and Watts. Your Pokemon will be safe. If you are to lose your Pokéwalker, then you can restore your Pokemon back into your games. As a note, if you happen to find your Pokéwalker after you have restored your Pokemon, you can not send the other one inside of the Pokéwalker back to the game (essentially cloning). To get your Pokemon back if ever your Pokéwalker breaks/gets lost, go the Pokéwalker Connection Screen and press & hold:

>> * Up + Select + R


>>Once you do this, your Pokéwalker will be reset and your Pokemon will go back into your box. Your Pokemon will be restored to as it originally was when you put it in the Pokéwalker. If you do find your Pokéwalker after you have restored your Pokemon, you need to reset the Pokéwalker.

>>To set a Pokéwalker back to it's original settings, go to the Pokéwalker Connection Screen and press & hold:

>> * Down + X + L


>>Once you have done this, either a new Pokéwalker, or an old one that you reset will be able to be synced with the game as you did when you first set it up.

Stupid idea I had for a Pokemon comic series:

Slacker teenager is forcibly kicked out of the house by his mother and forced into his Pokemon Journey after putting it off for several years. Unfortunately it's the off season for Pokemon Journey's and he can't find a starter anywhere.

He eventually ends up fishing up an Octillery (Because Octillery is fucking awesome) Who manages to have the power of speech and has a similar, slackerish outlook on life as our protagonist. The two of them team up and attempt to become Pokemon masters through as little work as possible.
The Pokemon our protagonist ends up catching over the course of his adventure:
The aforementioned Octillery who can speak english and works as a translator for various pokemon.He's lazy and hates fighting and doesn't know all that many useful attacks
A Magikarp/Gyarados he buys from the Magikarp salesman and proves completely useless in battle. It eventually evolves into a Gyarados, but is actually worse than useless because it openly hates our protagonist for being an asshole when it was still a Magikarp and tries to kill him whenever it's freed from its pokeball.
A Lomre/Ludicolo that, like Octillery, can speak human language...Except it only speaks and understands Spanish. Most battles with it invovles it standing around saying "Que?" and then bursting into a dance number
A Mawile that seems cute and friendly on the outside but harbors some seriously psychotic and violent tendencies.

Our protagonist is eventually joined by a tough as nails female trainer whose goal is to follow in her family's footsteps and become a Pokemon contest star. To do this she's decided to catch all the cutest pokemon she can find for use in cute contests...Unfortunately her idea of cute differs significantly from that of the rest of the world. She's superb at battles but sucks major balls at contests. Her Pokemon are:
A Scyther named Sasafrass
A Cacnea
A Larvitar/Pupitar/Tyranitar that she thinks is the cutest thing ever
And a Misdreavus that falls in love with the protagonist. She catches it and keeps it around to antagonize him.

Yeah, I'm giving up on the Nuzlocke challenge. Not because it's too hard, but because it isn't fun, and that was the entire point of it: To make the game fun again. I blame Sapphire, mostly because Ruby and Sapphire are the worst games in the series: No move tutors, the worst plot of the main series, water routes everywhere, terrible character sprites, every single pokemon can either paralyze or confuse you, and half the pokemon in Victory Road, the place where you're supposed to train, know roar and whirlwind. Combine with poor AI and the computer fixing the odds, and instead of a fun challenge you just end up with frustration!

I forgot to mention the movesets for Gen III were all kinds of bullshit. By the time your Lombre learns a damaging water move you'll have beaten the game. Lotad and Ludicolo don't learn any!

The biggest differences between the two versions are just the different mons you can and can't get in each one. Also, some are easier or harder to find depending on which version you have.

Adamant Skarmory, freshly hatched today. Perfect.
Naive Haunter.
Modest Staryu. This one could be better, but it took forever to catch one with Natural Cure and I'm not going back now.
Quiet Scyther. This one is outright bad, but I've grown attached to the poor guy. Besides, he's plenty fast anyhow.
Sassy Quilava, soon to be evolved.
Lonely Ampharos. This one could also be better, but I use Thunderpunch as my main workhorse, so it's good.

My reluctance to try for better ones is partly due to me running out of good grinding spots and partly because I'm not willing to waste any more of my life hunting for a Ditto when I'm one gym away from hitting the grass on Route 47. And by that point, leveling up a hatchling to the same level would be a colossal pain.

Sort of? According to the pokedex Articuno live on tall mountaintops, but I don't buy that. It's always reminded me of a Quetzal.

And Rayquaza is based on Quetzalcoatl, who himself was derived from the quetzal.

Yes, what generic shovelware pokemon will they shove at us early on in vast quantities that we will underestimate because we saw so many of them we didn't think much of them.

Seriously Bibarel, Raticate, and Crobat are pretty decent team members.

You lied to me, Pokemon Sunday.
You said Shokotan would be in a big pinch, but it turns out the "pinch" is her losing her Kyogre in one hit to Frenzy Plant even though she wins in the same turn anyways.

You mean Golbat there, Crobat is a lot more than decent.

Finally got my hands on Heart Gold.

I hate to be a whiny nostalgiafag, but I'm really, really disliking the updated music so far. Everything else I'm cool with, though.

But some of it is more traditional Japanese style, which is Johto's general theme, especially Ecruteak and Violet City!

I have the Umbreon plushie. It's awesome save the fact that it's way too chibi and top-heavy; it keeps falling over when I want it to stand straight. ;A;

You should pick up an R4 card.

I've got one. And as a result I also have a Shedinja with more than one hp. Why I am so bad at haxxing.

So I beat the Elite Four with noting but a Slowking, a Gliscor, and a shit-ton of items; mostly stat-boosters and restoratives. When you haven't got the patience to grind, wasting all your money on X-Defense is the next best thing.

The trainers in Kanto are satisfyingly challenging. Seeing some with Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokemon was a welcome surprise.
