I like using Garchomp against friends who don't know Garchomp is ussually banned. Also Latias likely could handle Garchomp but there is the Sand Veil problem and Latias might go uber anyways.

What's your team? I've found that HGSS is really unforgiving in terms of levels, since you don't have enough trainers in Johto to raise a decent full-leveled team. As lame as it sounds, you may want to focus your energy on raising or trading for a lvl 50-60 powerhouse that you can fall back on when you're short on advantageous type match-ups.

A level 55 Tyranitar makes most of the elite 4 loleasy.

I regret nothing for leveling a Pupitar that high before even attempting the elite 4.

I decided to say fuck it and break my no ubers rule and use my stupid lv100 TRU event arceus and completely decimated Lance.

Now I'm doing pretty good in Kanto, and starting to build my stupid theme team

Is there any real order to Kanto or do you just go around doing whatever? and how do I get the train ticket?

Went through the last...six or so pages and I didn't see anything involving actual trades, so sorry if there's an appropriate thread elsewhere or everyone already has everything.  Dropped out of the Pok?mon loop since G/S/C until HeartGold was picked up so I'm looking to expand on my collection.  If it's from Hoenn or Sinnoh or a SoulSilver exclusive then I'm probably in need of it.  That being said, I'm particularly interested in the following:

-Lake trio (Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf)
  • Preferably untouched since their capture.
  • Must not be contained in a Net, Nest, or Dusk ball.
  • OT name should be appropriate.  Nothing strict, but I don't want a name like 'iiiiiii' to go with them.
  • Please rename them to their English names.

-Glaceon
  • I will supply the Eevee.
  • It does not matter which pokemon is defeated for the experience, but please defeat only one.  Just in case, please report the name of the pokemon defeated when transferring Glaceon back.

-Leafeon
  • Same as the above, but I'll be supplying a total of two Eevee because I can't decide on what gender it should be.

-SoulSilver exclusives Lileep / Cradily, Delibird, and Groudon

-Qualot Berry
-Tamato Berry
-Pok?rus

I'm looking for borrow an Arceus to trigger the Sinjoh Ruins event.  Unfortunately, I doubt there's anything I have capable of serving as collateral so it'll have to come down to trust.

Offers

Not sure where to start for offers, but if the pokemon can be found in HeartGold then I probably have it.  However, it's safe to assume that I don't have any pokemon found in the safari that won't appear until several weeks in, especially not the Salamence line (but I do plenty of Gible laying around that know Outrage).

-Eevee of every nature except for Calm, Careful, Hardy, and Quirky.  I also have two dozen or so that know the move Wish.
-Six female Eevee available (Bold, Careful, Naughty, Relaxed, Serious).
-All HeartGold / SoulSilver swarm pokemon except for Snubbull and Quilfish.
-All three Kanto starters.
-Chikorita and Totodile evolutionary line.
-Spiritomb, Snorunt line.

The following Legendaries are untouched:
  • Raikou (Rash)
  • Entei (Timid)
  • Suicune (Relaxed)
  • Moltres (Hasty)
  • Latias (Hasty)
  • Mewtwo (Quirky)

And for the ones that aren't:
  • Ho-oh (Lv. 100 (Hasty), EV distribution unknown)
  • Articuno (Lv. 57 (Jolly), EV distribution unknown)
  • Zapdos (3K exp. into Lv. 50 (Mild), EV distribution unknown)

As for Lugia, I haven't bothered to capture it yet and only just learned of the other use for Synchronize.  So its nature is up in the air and to your choosing.

-Every evolutionary stone.
-Every evolution-inducing held item except for the DeepSeaScale, DeepSeaTooth, Razor Fang, and Razor Claw.
-Every incense (probably doesn't matter).
-A dozen lucky eggs.
-Master Ball (as if anyone would want it).

PMs appreciated, if just to ask for specific stats or the ball the pokemon was captured in.  Sorry if I missed any certain protocol or etiquette; this is my first attempt for conducting personal trades.

They can't be worse than "blob with a leaf on its head" or "blob with flames shooting out of its back".

Yeah, I don't like the Johto starters. Deal with it.

Well the water starter is a blob with nothing else other than being a blob.

I haven't picked a Water starter since 2002 so I can't bring myself to care.

Really, really hate how much the Battle Frontier move tutors cost. 64 BP for Ice Punch? You're telling me that I have to grind for a week at least for ONE MOVE?

The 64BP for Pain Split wasn't that bad. Two Palmers (one failed) and an Argenta was more than enough.

Actually I love digging underground as well. I just wish they could have fleshed it out a bit more, more items, given bigger access to social stuff like worldwide Wi-Fi underground parties, etc.

Going underground could have potentially been awesome, but after a while I just used it as a method to get Heart Scales. :<

Re: Pokeman thread
« Reply #955 on: May 11, 2010, 02:28:35 AM »
I have horrible luck getting Heart Scales...

Don't think I've got a single one underground yet. Is there a trick or something that I'm missing besides just going to the walls and smacking them hoping it has a Heart Scale?

Well it helps if you have a high success rate of getting everything out of the wall before it breaks :3

Strange I always got plently.

For avid diggers:

Bury spheres in gardens that cover paths

This ups the chance of digging spots on the walls.

I do this with my undergorund base and it always has plenty of digging spots.

so, pokemans

I tried EV-training for the first time the other day. Fought Unowns for about a half hour.

I had never cared about it because I don't really need it

and then I saw my Typhlosion had gone up by 18 in both Attack and Sp. Attack with one level up.

Holy shit. This is so easy to abuse.
