Wow, I do. It had that promo Meowth card in it, right? Then, yes, I have it. The game and the card (card still being in it's original wrapping).

I pretty much beat that game, minus the fact I need three more cards. Unfortunately, I don't have an extra Game Boy Color or a copy of that game, so I'm pretty screwed. Unless...maybe Gamestop can help me out with that?

Nyaooo.

I traded my shiny Lugia for a shiny Arceus! I now have supreme power over all of Pokemon.

Well, I'm still working on my team. I'd like anyone to critisize or help me out..

Attack/speed Blazekin - Blaze kick, Sky uppercut, Brave Bird, thinking of last.
Attack/Speed Electrivire - Thunderpunch, Ice punch, Cross chop, Earthquake.
Special attack/attack/speed Salamence - Draco Meteor, Hydro pump, Dragon Dance, Fire Fang.
Some water pokemon, most likely a Starmie or something I am still thinking of.
The last 2 I am still deciding as well. I'm not sure if I should use an Outrage Gible I have and EV that, or any other starter.

Earthquake. It's nice and functional. If not, then you could use Overheat. After you've destroyed your Sp. Attack, then you can use that abundant attack you have.

Or, for the flinch chance, you can have Rck Slide. Since you raised for Attack, however, you can't have a Sunny Day/Solar beam combo.

The last 2 I am still deciding as well. I'm not sure if I should use an Outrage Gible I have and EV that, or any other starter.

Get a Magnezone with Modest nature and Magnet Pull. It'll be your best friend VS Skarmory and Foretress, and can make a decent special sweeper as well.

I've been looking into the Nosepass family, and can say that it's new evolution, Probopass, can make a good wall/annoyer. Nice, gigantic defensive stats, and the capability to learn thunder wave.


I have nothing to say that is at all relevant.

That's a good idea, Kuro, but what should I use for a water pokemon? If and if I use Magnezone, what should I use on the last to complement it? Magnezone has too many weaknesses and dosen't learn that great of moves for me to like it that much.
I was thinking Alakazam or Espeon..

If you want a sweeper, Sharpedo. Basically a water-borne Weavile.

If you need a wall or annoyer, forget water pokemon. Go for Blissey.

In my opinion, Lanturn is great, but unfortunately doesn't have the stats to be too great in CB.

If and if I use Magnezone, what should I use on the last to complement it?
Magnezone has too many weaknesses and dosen't learn that great of moves for me to like it that much.

Oh does it? If you equip it with a Focus Sash and send it in against a fire Poke, then it's Mirror Coat could be devastating. If that's too wasteful, then it is the ultiamte weapon against the OU steel type walls that I mentioned before. Magnezone's high defense should keep you from worrying too much about the fighting weakness, and Earthquake might be a killer, but not if you use Reflect or BP a few stat ups. Ideally, you won't be using Magnezone against Ground types.

A Magnezone Move set-

Rain Dance
Thunder
Thunder Wave
Reflect

Rain Dance not only halves Fire Type move strength, but ensures Thunder will hit. 120 STAB'd attack coming from Magnezone's huge Sp. Attack will leave a nice, big dent on anything (Except Ground, of course). Thunder Wave is there to make Magnezone faster, which helps, and it also learns it naturally, which is a bonus.

Reflect is there for Earthquake, since so many Pokes can learn it.

All of the moves from this ove set are eiher learned by Magnezone naturally, or are easily accessable TMs, so you don't have to slave away at the Battle Tower getting enough BP for an Earthquake or Stone Edge TM.

I was thinking Alakazam or Espeon..

You can have an Elemental Punching Alakazam if you want it, but it's grossly overused, and is too frail to take a hit from a decent sweeper. I'd rather have Vaporeon or Umbreon than Espeon.

So, after a good amount of training, I defeated the Elite Four. Huzzah for me. Only real difficulty was Lucian's Alakazam. Now that fucker was cheap, fast, and a pain. Lucky for me, I beat it before it could use Calm Mind.

...Cynthia wasn't even that hard. Only real threats were Spiritomb (fucking Pressure) and Garchomp (which was taken down by a Lvl 49 Palkia).

So, now I started my new team today. Well, I'm trying to. Current new team...

Mudkip (because when it comes down to it, Mudkip > Piplup)
Ralts (Ran into SIX in a row...your Waldo sickens me)
Pichu (because lately I've had a strange fetish to want to have an awesome Raichu on my team.)

Full list when I get the team together and start training.

And, in other news, I caught Cresselia with ONE FUCKING QUICK BALL!!! Whoever said use the Master Ball on it can go suck it...

<sigh> I kinda wish it was shiny, though...

I don't wanna brag, but I only spent less than an hour looking for it (forgot how long I took). I'm just that damn good.

As soon as I get this damn USB thing that can get me on Wi-Fi, I plan on showing some of those show-offs on Youtube how I roll.

My new "dream team". It'll need work, but what the hell...

Mudkip- Level 5 right now. Hey, he knows Ice Beam. That, and you all should know by know I liek Mudkips.

Ralts- Level 5. Kadabra fucking sucks. That, and from experience with my Emerald file, Ralts (and evolutions) are kick ass. Took me forever to find one with Synchronize though...

Pichu- Level 5. I did tell ya's about my recent fetish for wanting a Raichu, right?

Oddish- Level 18...should've bred the one on my Emerald file and migrated it. Oh well...Oddish still fucking rules.

Pidgey- I don't mind Starly, but Pidgey will always be cooler in my book. Unfortunately, I haven't caught one because of the randomness of swarms. I'm tempted to migrate one...

Rapidash- Level 61...yeah, the only original team member I'm keeping in my team. Only because 1) It actually saved my ass in the Elite Four and, 2) Vulpix can't learn Strength (wah!).

Feel free to evaluate and leave your two cents.

You can be depressed? Usually, you handle this, but I guess you are the same as me.

And Zancross, thank you for trying to help me. But I can handle it all my own. It is just that it will take a lot of time just to get it finished, with the art design and programming and such. This is no simple-minded Flash game like all of the other Flash games, but it seems not even MindChamber can even smell the scent of a game developer in me.

Well screw him to fail to recognize me as a game maker! If he is too great and perfect, he can go fuck a hamster! All I need are friends who believe in my talent. That is something he can never hope to obtain, since business gets the better out of his life. He's a prisoner of business, just like all of the others, never again be acquainted with a so-called "outsider".

Am I the only sane person or is everybody else more insane than me?

I'll give you some move suggestions and/or replacement reccomendations, kay?


Mudkip- Level 5 right now. Hey, he knows Ice Beam. That, and you all should know by know I liek Mudkips.

Swampert is definitely worthy of Battling on WiFi.

Earthquake, Ice Beam and Surf are self explanatory.

You can fill in the last slot with Stone Edge, or Roar, if you want it to take care of the BPers.


Ralts-

Depends. Are you evolving it into Gallade or Gardevoir?


Pichu- Level 5. I did tell ya's about my recent fetish for wanting a Raichu, right?

Try to get a Volt Tackle on it, if you can.

Pikachu learns Thunder Wave and Thunderbolt naturally, so you could either take advantage of Raichu's fairly decent attack and make him a Sub-Puncher, or you could give him Charge Beam+Focus Blast. That, or you could breed for Wish.


Oddish- Level 18...should've bred the one on my Emerald file and migrated it. Oh well...Oddish still fucking rules.

Since Bellosom sucks, I'll assume you'll be going Vileplume.

Energy Ball (Giga Drain's too weak)
Sludge Bomb
Toxic
Petal Dance OR Hyper Beam

Vileplume isn't the most versatile poke out there...


Pidgey-

Er...
Well, Pidgeot's stats don't really rank up in my book. It doesn't learn too many spectacular moves either. Even though I'd go with Yanmega or Skarmory, I can see Pidgeot with Roost and U-Turn and Whirlwind.

Does U-Turn work with stat-ups like Baton Pass? If so, Pidgeot could work pretty well like that.


Rapidash-

Megahorn and Poison Jab are good, but there's one thing Rapidash and its high attack is really good with.

Flare Blitz FTW!

Your team seems to be composed entirely of offensive pokemon. I'd make sure to raise a wall or annoyer, too.

Read my mind.

Ralts-
Depends. Are you evolving it into Gallade or Gardevoir?

Well, I plan on evolving it into Gardevoir and probably emulating the move set from my Emerald version's Gardevoir (except Flash. It sucks). All I know is that Psychic and Thunderbolt are going to be moves.

Gallade doesn't look too much, but for great justice, I caught a male Ralts for that purpose. (Hey, need to complete the Dex somehow)

Pichu- Level 5. I did tell ya's about my recent fetish for wanting a Raichu, right?
Try to get a Volt Tackle on it, if you can.

Don't have a Light Ball, but I'll think of something that can (hopefully) make up for it.

Pikachu learns Thunder Wave and Thunderbolt naturally, so you could either take advantage of Raichu's fairly decent attack and make him a Sub-Puncher, or you could give him Charge Beam+Focus Blast. That, or you could breed for Wish.

Thunderbolt, and possibly Rain Dance and Thunder. I'm not too sure yet. I'm still working the kinks out of the hose.

Oddish- Level 18...should've bred the one on my Emerald file and migrated it. Oh well...Oddish still fucking rules.
Since Bellosom sucks, I'll assume you'll be going Vileplume.

Yes I am.

Energy Ball (Giga Drain's too weak)
Sludge Bomb
Toxic
Petal Dance OR Hyper Beam

Energy Ball does sound like a winner. While I'm not too much into stat afflictions (most people are smarter, I'd assume, to be better prepared for them), Sludge Bomb sounds like a win, mainly because Vileplume is Grass/Poison, so it'll get the STAB from it. I'd probably have Petal Dance and replace Toxic with Solarbeam. But, it's still being decided.

Pidgey-
Er...
Well, Pidgeot's stats don't really rank up in my book. It doesn't learn too many spectacular moves either. Even though I'd go with Yanmega or Skarmory, I can see Pidgeot with Roost and U-Turn and Whirlwind.

Well, I'm thinking of probably just keeping Staraptor on my team. Who knows, Intimidate might come in handy.

Does U-Turn work with stat-ups like Baton Pass? If so, Pidgeot could work pretty well like that.

I wouldn't know.

Rapidash-
Megahorn and Poison Jab are good, but there's one thing Rapidash and its high attack is really good with.

Flare Blitz FTW!

Current move set:
Flare Blitz
Fire Blast (which is surprisingly accurate lately)
Flamethrower (Fuck Yeah)
Strength

Feel free to evaluate and leave your two cents.
Your team seems to be composed entirely of offensive pokemon. I'd make sure to raise a wall or annoyer, too.

Erm...defense isn't my best skill. My strategy is mainly (and I quote myself) "Hit the fuckers hard with great speed and and you need not worry about it."

One more question before I go; How do I revived fossils?

Well, person who asked for my Heatran, do you have a Ho-Oh? Or any legendary or shiny?

I have a Pichu with volt tackle, trying to make Pikachu to mass breed and trade away.

I already have like 20 Hydro pump + Dragon Dance Bagons to trade away, so if anyone needs one, shout.

I'm bored..still working on my team..I think I will follow Kuro's advice and get a Magneton or Magnezone. Sharpedo has a ridiculously huge attack, I remember, but there aren't that many physical type water moves that are good..
So I still need some more to finish my team.

Staraptor > Pidgeot. Any day. Staraptor without EV gets 200 attack at level 55, EV it and you'll have 350 attack and 300 speed at level 100. Maybe more. It learns Close Combat, too.
