[DS] How do you get 3,000 pikachus on a bus? POKEMON!

That pretty much hit the nail on the head. Breeding with a female Snorlax that's holding a Full Incense item will yield a Munchlax egg.

It works in a way very similar to getting Wynaut from a Wobbuffet in the earlier games.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No need to rush, Freelance. My couple of Linoones just gave me an Earthquake TM, so I'm in no rush to get another (it would be nice, nonetheless).

Also, on the SB forums, there's been talk of organizing some sort of Pokemon tourney. Was there a proposed date for when this idea was going to come to fruition?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If anybody has a spare Gilgar they're willing to trade with, I'd gladly trade with them. You may want to PM me with anything that you want in exchange so I can comb through my other games to try and find some to place in Pal Park.

Also, does anybody have any TM51s (Roost) they'd be willing to trade as well? I can trade any berries and Leftovers in exchange as well. Any other items that are wanted should also be PM'ed as I may have them but are buried within my inventory.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'd like to know if a level cap does exist before I accidentally win a match that I really shouldn't. >.>

Oh, and my friend code should be in the Wiki. I haven't made a new-fangled trainer card yet.

Most amazing jew boots

I managed to get some battling (thanks, miniface!) and breeding done today, and I'm fairly pleased with the results. I have a few spare Dragon Dancing Larvitars at my disposal for anybody willing to part with any of their spare TM51s or Lotads.

Please don't leave me in that cramped PC!

I also managed to get my hands on some other nifty stuff from my long-forgotten Pokemon Colosseum game like Cyndaquil and Totodile. I'll need some more time to free Bayleef from the clutches of evil or something before I'll be able to trade away that starter willy-nilly. Incidentally, Chaotic, I already got my hands on a Gligar. Sorry if you already caught one and planned on giving it to me. =(

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'd be up for any sort of tournament. I asked about this before, but I guess it got lost among the sea of trade comments.

There is an option to set the Vs. Battles so that every Pokemon entered is automatically set at a designated level, so there shouldn't be much of a problem with differing levels. However, having different brackets wouldn't be a bad idea. I can see the possibility of having different Cups like in the previous Pokemon Stadium games (i.e. Little Cup, Prime Cup, etc.).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Oh please no.

Wobbuffet still has an unfair set of stats, ability, and move pool. Also, the last thing any of us need right now is a Wobbuffet on Wobbuffet showdown to see who obtained the most PP Ups before somebody starts to Struggle.

Quote:

Actually, do moves like sucker punch go first?

If both Pokemon use a first strike move, then it depends on which one has the higher Speed rating.

EDIT:

Quote:

::everyone rushes and makes a team of six Wobbuffet::

This reminds me... if there is a tournament, shouldn't all of the Pokemon in the same team be a different species?

FELIPE NO

After quite a few days of waiting, I succeeded in growing some Salac Berries. With one of these berries you can make enemy Pokemon regret not completely finishing off one of your sweepers. Just because I feel generous, I'm giving away 3 of these for absolutely nothing (just give me a Bidoof or something)!

Also, trainer card:





My secondary team. My all Flying-type team seems to be a bit too cutthroat based on the tiers Kairyu provided (it doesn't use any ubers, but there aren't any in the Underused or under categories), so I'm working on a more casual thematic team. It's meant moreso for Double Battles, but it should work well in singles!

How ya doing, buddy?

(Oh, you wouldn't happen to have any Yache berries for trade would you? If you've got plenty I'll take 3 or 4. Otherwise, one will do!)

Really? ;_; I felt so special thinking that I was the only person with a Salac Berry that can't be found in this particular iteration of Pokemon!

Anyway, I have plenty of spare Yache berries for you to have. I'll have some of my spare breeded Pokemon carry them around for me. PM me when you get the chance!

I just wanna fight.

I'm always up for a Pokemon battle. I'll drop a PM sometime shortly (if you're still online, that is). I failed to mention this before, but I'm always up for a Pokemon battle or trading any time I'm logged in to GFF. Be sure to drop a PM first!

Oh shi~ Really? I didn't think there'd be any harm in making a Level 50 battle since I wasn't sure whether or not your Pokemon were at a high level.

Almost all of mine are level 100, (I don't see myself raising my Skarmory's level with its current moveset anytime soon) so the next time we rematch I'll be sure to set the right level cap.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

So every time I sent out a new pokemon about ten to twenty percent of their HP was knocked off. Still it sounded like you two had a great match.
Oh and Crash, I'm up for a lv.100 battle if you got time!

Just to clarify, the Skarmory that you faced off against, Kairyu, was my newfound Lv. 50, actually. Crash faced off against my Lv.100 from the old days with a completely different (but still a stall-based) moveset. He wanted a Free Battle with Lv.100's, so I had to use the one that wouldn't die in five seconds. As I said before, I'm keeping the other Skarmory at Lv. 50 since its moveset isn't exactly the best for power-leveling.

EDIT:

Here's some movelists for comparison:

Lv. 50 Skarmory w/Leftovers
Stealth Rock
Spikes
Whirlwind
Fly

Lv. 100 Skarmory w/Leftovers
Toxic
Sandstorm
Fly
Roost

I was also half-expecting an Ice Beam the entire time Crash had brought his Milotic out. I wasn't quite expecting Water Pulse to own my entire team just as badly (or, heck, worse )!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I have no idea about the level caps in the matches. I keep hearing that they erase all your IV's, they cut your IV's in half, they leave your IV's alone, etc. In any of the above cases, it's probably a best bet if all high level battling is done in the Free Battle Room. (Aside: Do you want your Yache Berries, by the way? )

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm probably just as stumped as you are on the situation (if not more). Rua seems to know more about how the battle rooms are configured, so he may be the guy to provide an answer to this puzzle.

It's only 358 despite that it's Jolly (it might as well be speed-neutral ). I think I set as much EV's into its Speed stat as I could (252), but I didn't really bother trying to get the perfect IV spread back in FR/LG. I may get around to raising another Aerodactyl later, but only if I have the time for it.

As far as I'm concerned, EV training is perfectly acceptable. It's another hoop to go through when raising a Pokemon, but it definitely pays off.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I can give you a spare Shuckle, RABicle. I'll need some time to breed one, but I should have it to you by the time 24 hours has passed (or I can PM you if I get it done sooner than that).

FELIPE NO

I would if I could etc.

Unfortunately, the only GameStop within 100 miles of here doesn't hold the tournament. It's kind of a pity since I didn't have any plans for Saturday either.

Anyway, I managed to unlock a new berry in my Battle Revolution game, the Enigma Berry. I'm not really sure of its applications, but I'll go ahead and save some coupons to afford one since I had to beat Mysterial's godly superteam of uber legendary Pokemon to make the berry available for purchase. Anybody who wants one may PM me. The plant's going to take a while to grow I imagine, so please be patient!

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Obviously hacked Pokemon (i.e. unreasonable stats and movepools) become "Bad Eggs" when transferred to Pokemon Battle Revolution and are therefore unusable in that state.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Whoa, wait, the tournament started already? Ack, I wanted to join. ;_;

Is it possible for me to sign up at this point in time?

This page might be what Rua's talking about, particularly here:

Don't use Double Team and Minimize. The game becomes dreadfully dull when every game is DT x6 followed by Baton Pass to a sweeper. DTing walls will never die either. Some may say "carry haze", but the fact is, Hazers, Vaporeon aside, are very easy to kill, and you won't have pure hazers.

I've also heard about this clause. Double Team really is boring to fight against (many of the CPU trainers in PBR use it, too), and almost every Pokemon can learn it. All you'd need to do is slap Double Team on something already difficult to kill and/or with a recovery move, and you have something near invincible.

EDIT: Also, I've been reading up on my clauses, and apparently there's also an Enigma Berry clause. It basically states that no Pokemon is allowed to hold an Enigma Berry. I doubt anybody here would use the Enigma Berry anyway since I'm the only one that has them (I think), and, if the berries are busted enough to have a clause, well, I'll opt not to use it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If the legendary birds are going to be banned, shouldn't the other legendaries be banned too? I don't know if that was an oversight or not, but I figure I should point that out before somebody brings a team of Regis through a technicality.

Anyway, I do have some counters to Double Teaming, but those plans take forever to execute. I'm not going to spoil anything by saying how they work though. Anybody whose played me before should know what I'm talking about.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yeah, I wasn't exactly sure if Kairyu neglected to place the rest of the legendaries on this tournament's banned list intentionally. I didn't see them, so I figure I'd ask.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Likewise, I also have a team of Lv. 100's already made, but I'll need to revise the team that I sent you earlier if were doing a Free Battle system, Kairyu. I still need to level up a couple of members on the current team to Lv. 100, and I doubt I'll be able to do so before the tournament starts.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Wait, so the items that have a random chance of working aren't allowed in a Metronome tournament?

I can sort of see why the Leftovers clause would be in effect, but not allowing Quick Claw and King's Rock seems against the spirit of an essentially random tournament.

FELIPE NO

Is there any specific date that the Metronome tournament will begin with the sign-ups? I'd like to set aside some time beforehand so I can raise a Togekiss for it.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

The only idea I have on Crash's problem is that the Buizel knows an HM move, and the game won't let him abandon it for that reason.

Could you check the Buizel's moveset to see if this theory is correct, Crash? =o
