My friends and I are BIG fans. But more than ever, I like Legend of Zelda ;D
I do adore the pokemon series. Its very fun. And creative.

i like pokemon games and i play diamond now. the collecting part is the most fun, but more than 400 pokemon is a bit too much.

I still play Pokémon, but the last game I bought was Crystal, and I prefer Blue and Red over all others...

I've never been such an enthusiastic fan (oh who am I kidding, in my youth I craved for Pokémon day in and day out). Recently it's been all about Zelda for me, but I have these periods where I brush some dust off my Emerald cartridge (or Diamond, for that matter), and just play. I enjoy games where you can level up, it's something with the feeling of doing progress that amuses me greatly.

Oh, and btw; Charizard ftw =P

Oh wow. Tons of poke-fans. I have diamind also, no friend code yet. I also have battle revolution, but it was a big rip since it is exactly like coluseum which I have

I enjoyed the first few games, such as Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal. I really think that they went way overboard with all these new Pokemon. I can't keep track of any of them past the first 250 or so, and I even have trouble with them.

At one point, around the release of Pokemon Red & Blue, I was a 'huge' fan. Me and my friends used to brag about our high level Pokemon, and I always had the best party of any of us. A level 97 Venasaur, level 89 Aerodactyl, level 91 Raichu, level 75 Golduck, level 78 Charmander, and my pride and joy: level 100 Rhydon. I had 2 games at the time, Yellow and Red, so I decided I would trade over my Pikachu to red, evolve it to a Raichu, then trade it back. It worked, and my friends were like "z0mgz wtfx d00d!!" That Charmander was just to show all my friends how kickass I was. :P Ahh... I actually miss those days...

o_o Wow, This is my team for red: Lvl.65 Sandslash, Lvl.70 Charizard, Lvl.64 Pidgeot, Lvl.67, Lvl.63 Kabutops, Lvl.60 Golduck and Lvl.69 Rapidash. You must be pretty good to have so many high lvl pokes.

i don 't have one main team one diamond, because i trained so many pokemon.
so i have one box for EV trained pokemon and 1 box for legendary pokemon
all my ev trained are lvl 50 or higher and most of my legendaries are lvl 100. i don 't feel listing all lvls but i will list my pokemon. i'm pretty serious about the stats when i train and breed my pokemon.

Rayquaza
Rayquaza (this one is shiny, a black rayquaza. sweet!)

Palkia
Dialga
Girganta

Note: also got regice, registeel, regirock, suicune, eintei, raikou, regigigas, cressilia, heatran, azelf, uxie, mesprit. But they kinda suck and i didn 't train them, so i left them out of my legendary box.

Oh, cool! Shiny Rayquaza! I have 4 shinys, but thy're pretty low on lvl. Still, shiyns are very hard to find. Where'd you get the shiny Rayquaza?

yeah i know shinies are cool but about you question. there are only a few ways to get shiny reyquaza. i mean you can only find rayquaza on sky pillar in ruby/shappire or emerald but you have to be really lucky to encounter a legendary shiny.

some people are really hardcore, they use a method called soft resetting with GBA.
they save in front of a legendary, each time if they don 't encouter the legendary shiny, they reset with "A+B+select" until they encouter it shiny. even if you do this the changes are still small.

Or they simply just hack it with AR or GS. i only collect legit pokemon, because in PBR hacked pokemon are being blocked, and thats a good thing because people can 't cheat.

ar for me how that i obtained shiny rayquaza. I made a very good deal and traded it with someone. cool thing about it is: its legit, it was untouched (so that i could EV train the stats myself), and it had a modest nature which is very good with rayquaza 's base stats. so attack goes down and sp attck goes up.

Hackers found Jhoto pokeball and item data on Diamond and Pearl...this could mean that Nintendo is going to remake the Jhoto games(Gold/Silver) on the DS.

yeah, thats an old rumor, that nintendo is planning to remake the 2gen pokemon games like firered or leafgreen. also in D/P the red gyrados was mentiond at the start.

about this info, its not just a made out rumor, actually one fanboy of pokemon who is also registerd on serebii (one of the biggest pokemon communities) questiond this in a intervieuw with satoshi (maker and founder of pokemon). he didn 't geve a clear awnser but they are thinking about it to remake it.

Ususally when Nintendo dodges questions, it means they are going to do that :)
If they remade them it would be the first time in like 8 or 9 years that I've bought a pokemon game, lol.

why? do you like the johto better then kanto, hoenn and shinnoh?
to be honest i think the 3 gen had the best pokemon off the all other generations.

about the remake, actually nintendo was planning to bring back many feature's to D/P that was in gold/silver/crystal. but i don 't know why they removed it.

I liked Kanto, but I never got into FireRed and LeafGreen. Some friends had Ruby and Saphire and those looked really dumb to me...same thing with Diamond and Pearl.
Just my opinion though...I know P/D is still really popular.

Lol you are not the only one.
i think more people had that phase when they were young.
and to think of it it started with that low quality anime.
i also collected the trading cards when i was young, but then somebody stole it from me and i remeber i was totally pissed about it.

now i only love the pokemon games. lets face it, it one of the best RPG 's out there.
and to think that you can now freely battle each other with wifi.

Currently i just got my wii back from repair. so i started over with Pokemon Battle revolution again. so if anyone wants a PBR battle or just D/P battle just PM me and we can exchange friend codes.

when i was little i wanted to be a pokemon trainer ... everyone made fun of me for it for like 6 years :cry:

I also had pokemon cards (although i never bought one single card, always got unwanted cards) and i had a lot of pokemonflippo's including three turkish ones (they were huge!) and pokemon stickers from some kind of bubblegum. Sadly my mother threw it away three years ago.

05-05-2008, 08:01 PM
man i'm very lucky.
on the birthday (19 april) of my best friend (some of you know him as dragonking) i could not sleep that night and i wanted to train a charizard because i wanted a strong fire type.

anyway. so i always breed to get the right nature.
there is a way to control that and get the right nature you want.
if you give a female an everstone it will take over its nature and the chance is 50%
so i always use dittos on everstones and breed them with males.

so i was starting to breed charmanders and after the 3th egg hatced i got a yellow charmander. i could not believe it for the very first time i obtained a shiny in my own account and the good thing is is inhabeted the nature (i was aiming for modest so i got modest). modest is sp attack up and attack down. another good thing is i could EV train it from lvl 1 to gain the bonus stats. i always train till lvl 50 normally for PBR.

now i got a black charizard thats modest gained al his bonus stats and high stats.
talk about luck. i was like "YES YES YES!!!"

Yeah I did too, with me it was ninja turtles, everybody was into it back in the 80's/early 90's. I had everything from the shirts and videogames to all the playsets and figures. I even owned turtles III on video at one time. (though I'll never own it again, man what a waste of good film).

I used to absolutely LOVE Pokémon when I was younger.
The show was awesome, and the game was even more awesome. Then the show started to get old because it's just the same thing over and over again, (and now they changed the voices AND Team Rockets motto), and the games just aren't as excited, and there's deffinately way too many Pokémon now.

I grew up on the pokemon series. Me and my brother both had gameboys. I first had blue and he had yellow. I used to just ride the bike everywere lol. I got into to silver alot and beat it numeroustimes. I did beat ruby once so im not that familiar with it or the pokemon in it. I think the series has gone nowhere but downhill from their.

whoooh, maybe some of you already know this but the new version of pokemon is coming soon called: pokemon platinum.

as the main legendary giratina ( like duuhh we saw that coming like pokemon crystal and emerald )

anyway this time its quite interesting
giratina in a other form or should i say its "Origin Form"

Here is giratina how we know it
http://images.wikia.com/nintendo/en/images/9/92/Giratina.png

and here its Origin form

I'm not so much for Giratina because I hear rumors that Orgin Form is going to be overpowered but (I don't research this, I have no idea, I just saw a picture from the new Pokemon movie) the new Shaymin looks cool.

08-16-2008, 07:04 AM
Giratina was REALLY bad in Pearl; caught him too high a lvl so you couldn't EV him much. Probably the most dissapointing legendary.....if he wasn't a Dragon type he'd be out the door. Lot of the legendaries were dissapointing. Cresselia looked cool but I dont think I ever used her. Heatren...euch. Ugly pokemon.

i agree, and the most annoying part is now there are 2 many psycic type legendaries.
but then again, i don 't care much about legendaries, i only care about my EV trained pokemon. but i still concider mewtwo as one of the best legendaries.

from what i know is that giratina is in its origin form in the "torn world" a other dimension.
i don 't know if you can switch the form anytime you want like deoxys with the meteor rocks in d/p.

overpowerd or not, , still Ev trained will beat him for sure. never underastimate the power of the EV trained lol. but i really hate darkrai, now thats a pokemon thats really unfair in battle. but even for him i found a perfect quick way to take him out with my basic EV team.

TimeLag
08-16-2008, 02:06 PM
I dislike legendaries in general, the majority of them are ubers and you guessed it, I'm a competitive player... Well at least I used to be until I got into SSBB. I don't mind Pokemon like Celebi, Jirachi and a couple of others that have a base stat of 600 (Darkrai and Mew etc are Uber though) but yeah. I don't think I'll be giving much about the Flying Giratina, he's probably just going to be overpowered or something.

By the way, all freshly caught legendaries can be EV'd easily, you can check there IVs too but hell I don't need my Uber Pokemunz to be THAT powerful (As if I wanted a Dark Type Hidden Power Giratina).

Mercedes
08-17-2008, 07:12 AM
Tell you what legendary pokemon Im slightly dissapointed with. Arceus. Mines got a jolly nature, lvl 60 - 69, and sure his lvls are very even but not one of his lvls have even passed the 200 mark. Its annoying.

My only EV'd pokemon, or at least I think he is, is a lvl 95 Lugia with about 415 sp. defense. Shiny too =D

Serebii WiFi chat FTW!

same here, i Like the original 150 and the ones from Jhoto. I still watch the show though, and i like a lot of the pokemon I see there. Still you can't get any better than Pikachu, bulbasaur, charmander, and squirtle pidgyoto and butterfree (the ones ash catches in the very begining of the very first season). NEVER!

Oh, how I used to love the Pokemon Series. Used to watch it everyday at 9:30 am on Kids WB. Such good times. But then either I kind of grew tired of it, or it just got annoying.

As for the games, I still like them. Good to play every now and then, granted it's basically the same story every time with the whole go to Gym Leaders and get badges thing. But still good.

I have a small collection of pokemon games and I play it. They're fun to play but after you beat them, there's not much to do which is a downside, especially since the games don't have a second save file so it might just be a way to buy another.
But I'm more of a Zelda fan but Pokemon's still cool.

Me and my friends used to so hooked on it. Pokemon was my life. I loved the show, collected the cards, and played the games 24/7. I just sold all my cards after having them for like 8 years. I lost interest in Pokemon around when was 11. I still enjoy Gold and Silver, but I don't know about the new games. Guess I won't know until I try though.

Pokemon hit it big about when I was 16 in the States (that would be 1998 I think) so I never got into the big thing about it.

I do own own Pokemon game. I think Ruby. All in all the games aren't too bad but I was annoyed by the over saturation of franchise.

Since I don't see the forms anywhere on here, I guess I'll put them on here. They're right near the middle of the page. My opinion:

This, personally doesn't really interest me too much. I mean, look at those forms, seriously. What do we have? A Refrigerator, a washing machine, a fan, a mower, and a toaster. That's nice. Now where are the real designs? I kind of lost interest with Pokemon in Diamond and Pearl, they just weren't that great to me. This one seems just about the same, from what I can see, unless this "Torn World" can change my mind.

one thing that questions me is, will Pokemon Battle Revolution support platinum?
thats the only thing i did with pokemon, just online battle 's with people on PBR.
well, but lately i can 't connect my wifi, because somehow my provider doesn 't support it, guess i have to buy the nintendo wifi USb stick.
