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

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

Oh, hell yes. I just caught a shiny Giratina. I spent an hour or two yesterday seeing if he wouldn't just show up for me, but with no luck on it I spent an hour today trying to find a normal one with a Calm nature. I was only going to attempt it two or three more times when the shiny showed up, so I quickly threw a Master Ball. It's Rash, which isn't particularly good for Giratina, but it could be worse (Naughty or Lonely). Very pleased!

And sorry Chaotic, I meant to ask about your offer. Did you want the Deoxys for the six TMs, and then I'd trade something else for the Mew? Or are you including the Mew, and I'd be including a few Sitrus berries?

Most amazing jew boots

Mew + 6TMs = Deoxys.

But lucky you. I haven't encountered a single shiny Pokemon in the wild since the days of G/S... I'm not lucky T_T.

I literally have to decide where I want to go.

I have a mall to the south of me less than about 3 miles away. Then another mall with Two Gamestops and an EB about 5 miles away going north.

The choices I have. T_T

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, it's only the third shiny I've ever encountered. First was the red Gyrarados in Gold (which doesn't count), the Steelix on Iron Island a month or so back, and then the Giratina today. They need to double or even quadruple the encounter rate of shinies.

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

I caught a golden geodude...im sure that pales in comparison to the ones you have but yeah

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

Who wants to battle???? You call the rules

I was speaking idiomatically.

A shiny Geodude isn't actually that bad because of it's golden color. Just don't evolve it, since then that's gone.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Before I forget about the changes I need to make~ I'm in need of a couple items. TM61 (Will-O-Wisp) and a leftover, two leftovers would be nice but I don't want to push my luck.
I've got plenty to offer in return if a fair trade is what you're after .
Some popular items include:
HeartsScales
Exp Share
King's Rock
Master Ball (my last one but I don't think I'll be needing it.)
TM02 - Dragon Claw
TM06 - Toxic
TM24 - Thunderbolt
TM26 - Earthquake ~ traded them for two leftovers
TM29 - Psychic
and many more.

A Giratina? Wow, I haven't ran into a shiny pokemon since pokemon gold. And I KO'ed it (a sneasel) by accident .


edit:
Thanks IC for the quick response! Still in need of one TM61 though ;_;

Most amazing jew boots

I need someone who'd be willing to trade with me so i can evolve my haunter to gengar and some general tips on breeding bc ive never really done any breeding when i used to play bc i didnt find it that important and now its become more incoroprated into the game and its finally time i learn how so any help would be nice.

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

Male + Female + Bow Chika Bow Wow = Baby

Or use a ditto

Jam it back in, in the dark.

If any of you are actually doing that tournament today, there's one more restriction that Badass didn't mention.

If your game is Action Replayed at all, you're not allowed to particiapte.

Just to let you know.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh, yeah. I did hear about that.

Thought it was a given, though.

How would they know?

It's not a issue for me but I do wonder how this is detected, aside for obvious hacks. Does copying your pokemon onto the Wii verify this or something?
In any case I'll be leaving to this tournament in a couple hours, wish me luck!

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.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, one kid actually got away with it.

I couldn't participate cause I used a friend's Action Replay to get me some TMs, so if anyone wants some, I got all of em' in abundance.

One way they could actually tell if you used the AR to hack the game is when you look in the Mail bag. You find 95 Explorer Kits in there. That's one way to notice.

After chatting with the guy running the tournament, I asked him if I could read the rules and regulations...

Apparently, it was supposed to be a Doubles Battle only using 4 Pokemon (forced since it's under the Level 50 All rule), but most places switched it to Singles because the battle would move faster. True, but it still took some time to hook up to the system.

The winner of our tournament had a Gyarados (which he used to sweep the other finalist, who used all legendaries), Garchomp, Kyogre, and Electivire (which had an awesome nickname, btw, Ben Lucci).

His opponent had all legendaries, Heatran, Zapdos, Suicune, and something else, but I can't remember. He never used it.

We we all rooting for this one girl to win, she had a Starmie named Jeff. Why she named it that, we were completely lost.

Overall, our tournament turned out fine.

Oh, by the way, if you're wondering about my Pokemon. Everything I caught myself is legit. As I explained earlier, my friend traded me legendaries which he got using an Action Replay. Otherwise, I actually do catch and raise my own Pokemon. I'm not THAT cheap. T_T

But anyway, if anyone wants a TM, I probably have more than 90 of all of them thanks to the Action Replay. PM me if you want anything in particular.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well that's good to hear. I was assuming the store clerks would simply skim through each player's teams and be done with it.

Cool, I'm starting to look forward to this mini-event.

Damn, why didn't I think of looking you up yesterday when I needed a Will-O-Wisp TM =p.
Oh well I spent 3 hours or so last night getting it, a very fustrating 3 hours. At least now my Spiritomb is now my first EV trained tank with no weaknesses.

How ya doing, buddy?

The Bad Egg thing actually happened during the tournament, but they let it slide for some reason. We really didn't want the kid to win at all, and I'm happy the guy who won sweeped with his Gyarados.

So, Kai, did you do the tournament? If so, how did it go?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

aww, I didn't know about any tournaments..

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Speaking of which, are we ever going to run a tournament here?

I'd figure that if we used Battle Revolution, it's the only way it would be fair, but not everyone owns it. <_<

I doubt that some people would want to own it anyway.

Most amazing jew boots

Hey Chaotic, if you have time do you think we can do that random b/s legendary trade for my dex?

Most amazing jew boots

Sure, not a problem. I'm not doing anything at the moment.

I'll just grab a bunch of legendaries in my box.

Woah really?
Over here, there were more AR users than anticipated. Over 20 people were ready to sign up but only 9 were able to participate. What really got me is that 5 of those players were around my age.
The tournament itself went well. Lots of watchers, bad news for me is that almost everyone was using some combination of legendary pokemon. Namely Mewtwo, Palkia and Kyogre. Naturally I lost in the initial rounds but I did take down a couple legendaries before my round was up. So it wasn't a total loss, hell a lot of players were cheering for my team for some reason .

What was I using?:

Nidoqueen (Leftovers)
Spiritomb (Leftovers)
Machamp (Leftovers)
Dragonite (Lum Berry)

To sum it up, it was a awesome experience. I hope they do something like that again.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! Well there aren't many of us that are still active with this game. From my last head count I think I had:
Me
Chaotic
Crash Landon
IC
Generic Badass
and maybe Freelance Wolf

With only that many potential players we could do a round robin style tournament instead of a single elimination tournament. Also we still haven't decided to stick with a lv.50 or lv.100 rule =p.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

cool, the more we can do the better, I'm pretty sure you're added on my friend codes

There was a big thing on deviantArt with a pokemon league system and everything...got my ass handed to me but picked up quite a few strategies

FELIPE NO

I'm still playing too, too. I wouldn't mind a casual tournament.
