The Pokémon Thread

Gen 1 and 2 were the best, imo.

I restarted my firered file. I now have an Ivysaur, Pidgeotto and a Pikachu. I'm at that boat in Vermilion City. Planning to get atleast a Growlithe, perhaps a Psyduck and a Rhyhorn. That'd end up with me having a Venusaur, Pidgeot, Raichu, Arcanine, Golduck and Rhydon. Reckon that'd be a fun team to finish the league with.

Not sure what to do with the Eevee I'm going to get. I like Raichu, so no Jolteon, although it's good, Vaporeon is ace, but not really cool and Flareon looks awesome, but sucks.

Might just go with Flareon and see if I can get any good out of it. Should be okay with Flamethrower, Return, Bite and Quick Attack or something like that.

You need physical and special sweepers, physical and special tanks, an abusing annoying pokemon that puts stealth rock on and shit, and another pokemon that counters remaining weaknesses. You also have moves on other pokemon that counters certain common pokemon like Ice Beam for Garchomp, Dragonite or Salamence, substitute/focus punch for Blissey etc.

That's pretty gay, I just want to have fun.

My team was Dragonite, Blaziken, Absol, Milotic, Scizor and Eelektross.

Not fun at all.

Like what moves/items?

Sandstorm and substitute (combined leftovers) were the main ones I ran into.

Fuck that. Flygon is still better.

The pokemon in Gen 1 were so boring apart from the charmander family

Nooo Gen 1 was amazing!!

I say it goes:

Gen 3 --> Gen 1 --> Gen 4 --> Gen 2


@ Marvin, that is an awesome team. Would totally have that in an actual game, just not Pokemon Online.

I got absolutely destroyed on my first battle because I'm so out of touch with the new Pokemon. I had no idea what types they were and shit.

Thanks, mate.

So I'm trying to find a Tyranitar in Black version..... lol... all I get are Audinos

Does/did anyone play Pokemon Indigo or Shoddy Battle?

Shoddy battle is old.... Pokemon Online is the new shit

What's Pokemon Indigo?

You'll never find one.

And I feel like every story line.. I end up with the same types.. water/grass/fire/electric.

Going to try and stay away from that.

btw.. that firered team above is pretty balanced, looks cool.


I agree with Marvin, use Pokemon you love.

"Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites."

Bitch.

Link?



Also I just found a Gliscor in Black

Gliscor killed my favorite Pokemon.

Heracross.

Ew Heracross

Heracross is my second favourite Bug pokemon. First being Scyther of course.

Oh of course. Scyther was my ultimate back in Pokemon Red/Blue.


So I finally got the starter i wanted last night, Oshawott. Restarted the game about 20 times until I got the nature I preferred.

Lonely and good perseverance.

Female also.. time to think of a nickname.

1.Scizor
2.Crustle
3.Accelgor

Scizor > Scyther.

Scizor became such a powerhouse with Technician + Bullet Punch / U -Turn

I have no idea what those moves are.

I guessed as much. Seeing you are new to the most current generations.

Basically.. made him be in the Top 10 Pokemon

More to the point, why can Rattata learn Surf and why can Doduo fly?

Because this is Pokemon.

How come Rhydon, who is x4 weak to water.. is able to learn Surf.


Can't question this shit.

I don't particularly see why pokemon can't learn moves they are supereffective against.

Though Rhydon with Surf does defy logic.

Anyway, yes Marvin, I play the games with the pokemon I love. I have used Absol in every single game since my Pokemon Ruby on my gameboy.

I remember how my mind was blown when I found out Dragonite could learn Fire blast, Thunder and Blizzard. Chuck in a Hyper beam and it's pretty much a one hit KO machine.

Fuck all this shit now though.

Calm down. It's just Pokemmon.
