I'm going to nickname every Magnemite I catch Gafnemite. Maybe someone of PokéGAF will have it

The most surreal thing just happened to me. Yes I'm talking about Cobalion.
So I go up Route 13, and suddenly there's that jerk.. just, like, chilling out in the middle of chaos and armageddon, for all to see. Pre-E4, main route, smack down in the middle of the path, complete with this silly little cut-gate, with an open entrance in plain view, that brilliantly summarizes how ridiculous Cobalion is looking right now.
I gather my composure with the belief that he's just gonna run away again, so I approach him. Battle starts. At this point I'm freaking out pretty bad.
So I decide to just go on a suicide run to check him out and then catch him.. flamethrower does slightly above 50% damage, no status. First Ultra-ball thrown. Please use your imagination as to how my face looked during ball nudges.
This game, man. I don't even know.

It's funny. I caught Virizion in my second ball, Cobalion in the fifth, and Terrakion took 45 balls before he stayed down.
Is the Critical Capture mechanic in this game? I caught Thundurus with it in White, but I haven't seen it here yet.

Yep Critical Capture is in this game.

Out of context, it sounds very weird, no?

Oh boy... well, I got him to level 78 but I guess I could try getting another one. I want confuse ray anyway so I guess that's an excuse to find a calm natured woman frillish.
As for Togekiss... he has Nature's plot. Bold is alright isn't it? Although I kinda wish it was a sp.def increase and not def. My whimsicott has Gentle (I dunno why) but Cotton guard can make up for that.
His EV spread is 252 sp.def 252 hp and 6 speed... maybe I should spread some into def?
EDIT:
Just forget I asked... I'm not an elitist lol. I'm gonna stick with what I have. I'm sure I can get somewhat far in PvP.

Wait, so even while linking your BW game via game sync, your game sync ID will still be different for this game?
You mean, because he won't get any EVs when he's at level 100? Because he still will. The stats will be recalculated.
(I think... someone back me up?)

No it's just because of his nature. That's all. But I've decided though to say forget it and just keep his "Bold" nature.
I can maybe redeem that shitty nature by doing good EV training but even so I can't have 6 perfect pokemon. I'm already extremely glad with my Togekiss, he's an insane power house if he can get 1 or 2 nasty plots. And this is without the proper ev training which I plan to do when he hits 100.

If she has a miscarriage, it's your fault.
ARGH YOU BEAT ME it took 4 dusk balls
legendary pokemon are flocking to me like mosquitos, they get caught without even trying, what is going onnnnn
i seriously just saw it jump down like it's mimicking alder or something i don't know, didn't even save (I DIDN'T. EVEN. SAVE), went up to it and caught it. what
Each game has a separate Dream World account, unfortunately (even if they're tied to the same Trainer Club account). On the plus side, you get twice the time in the DW/twice the spots for berries etc.
My battle with it went like this: Lucario used force palm. Cobalion's HP drops down to a red sliver and it becomes paralyzed. Next turn I throw a regular pokeball. Caught.

Where do you go after arriving in Castelia city?
I wish there were more shop slots.

Hahahah, that missed attack hit her!
You know, what's creepy about it is that it felt like you were the father of the baby during the ride.
Oh well.
I really don't want to do dream world.

Am I crazy, or does the pregnant woman on the Ferris wheel have the same name as one of the challengers in the first games?
Checked Bulbapedia, and she is. OH MY GOD HILBERT, WHAT DID YOU DO?

Are you saying she has been pregnant for two years

He probably came back for seconds.

So you tried to hit on a pregnant woman then?
You should read One Piece.
I always figured pokebucks were closer to cents than dollars.
Yeah, but it magically heals your pets. Give a soda to your dog; It doesn't do any sort of healing.

Maybe the pokemon doesn't drink it. You just spray it all over your mon.
Speaking of which what happens to the litter after using pots and sodas.

You just throw it on the ground. And then... Garbodor.
Don't they sell Pokemon sodas in Pokemon Centers in Japan for like ~2 dollars a can? I think I read that somewhere
Trying to theorycraft a really good team for Elite Four / Iris. What do you guys think? I'm playing Black 2.
Hydreigon
Metagross
Cobalion
Virizion
Haxorus
For the last spot I'm thinking Zoroark, Magnezone, Darmanitan, or Mandibuzz....
It's probably based on the Yen more than anything.

Maybe she didn't do too much walking.
Darmanitan.
He definitely hits like a truck. Is his speed and power enough that Iris's rock slides won't be a problem?
Hmm... I am not so sure about Iris, but it can easily 1HKO most of the E4's Pokemon. In the Iris battle, I used Zoroark and it defeated Druddigon, Archeops and Lapras. I had Darmanitan in White, and along with Scrafty, it was E4's nightmare.
Yeah having Darmanitan as a backup for the E4 might be a good idea. I was hoping that there was a Pokemon who could counter at least 3 of Iris's pokemon by itself but there really isn't. The obvious initial thought is an Ice-type, but she's got too much fire and rock to make an Ice-type viable I think.

Starmie. Surf, Psychic, Ice Beam, and a fourth move, all on a super fast Pokemon with great special attack.

How could you forget Thunderbolt
I use Thunderbolt, but in the past I've been told by some people that Recover is the preferred choice, so I just left it open as "fourth move".
