Maybe I or someone else need to make an Axew one.

* Have you ever wanted a Pokemon that wore a Fedora?
* Shouldn't Murkrow be a starter Pokemon?
* Did you know Murkrow saved the planet from Team Rocket?

Why are D/P/P so expensive now? I never played through that generation and would like to go and play them, but they're like $50 each now. Ugh.
Boss Doggie

Wasn't that the original price?

No. SoulSilver was $40 when I got it, none of them were ever $50 at retail as far as I know. I guess all you can do at this point is find them used in great condition for under $40, or get incredibly lucky at retail.
I've been thinking about getting Black because I currently only have Black 2. It would get me a Reshiram for White Kyurem presumably, plus I can trade with it for those darn trade evolutions, right?

Were they really? Wow. I did not know that. I never bought a DS and bought a 3DS shortly after launch.
I might have to go that route. Thanks.
Nah, I'm in the US. I just never realized how expensive they were/are. I thought they were like standard DS games that cost like $35-$40.

Bah, I've had Honchkrow, Gyarados, and Braviary on my team at various points... I guess I'd choose Gyarados...

But only one person is in WhimsicottGAF, so that can't be a "GAF" let alone the best GAF.

HaxorusGAF is best GAF. Dat non-pseudo-legendary dragon beast.
If everyone meant one person, then sure.

I tried random battles. I've only been matched against Japanese players, first guy I ever played against had 500 wins, another guy had a Jumpluff with Leech Seed, Protect, Substitute, and Sleep Powder. I am no longer compelled to play online.
I took out the first guy's Salamence in one hit with my Haxorus, so that was exciting at least.
And somebody recommend a Pokemon that makes good use of Fire attacks but doesn't get its ass kicked by Earthquake. Not Moltres.

You could try Volcarona. It takes neutral damage from Earthquake. Not much for taking physical damage though. Is there a certain Pokemon you're trying to counter?

Rotom with Overheat is the only one who sees any sort of competitive use that outright ignores Earthquake. Unless you're looking to go into Ubers, that is. There's also Charizard, and Volcarona (who was mentioned already).
If you're looking for non-Fire types, then you could go with Salamence.
Boss Doggie

Volcarona too.

Oh hey, it IS Butterfree returning in the anime!
Also why does Ash want to catch a Dunsparce? It's the main dilemma of the ep where Ash and Iris fight (Iris's Axew apparently got in the way for catching this Dunsparce).

At least, it will put all rumors regard with butterfree's death to rest.

I get way more Japanese players too. It's been fun, I got my first win lol. Took only 10 battles lol.
I used a team inspired by MikeMyers's current battle subway team.
Gyarados (No item) (Intimidate)
TWave
Ice Fang
Dragon Dance
Waterfall
Tyranitar (No item) (Sand Stream)
Crunch
Earthquake
Stone Edge
Low Kick
Garchomp (Dragon Gem) (Sand Veil)
Earthquake
Dragon Claw
Outrage
Fire Fang
I need to get the Sword Dance TM for my Garchomp, still grinding BP, though.
Any suggestions for items, I don't have any Choice Items, again BP grinding, so annoying. But I do have a Life Orb and Leftovers.

You could probably get away with giving TTar the Lefties.
Why wouldn't he want to catch a Dunsparce?
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
I would like to look at that as evidence that Dunsparce might get evolution in X/Y. More likely fairy type evolution.

I think it's more that Dunsparse is rare and briefly seen. It doesn't seem like Ash is actually catching it.
True, I had to research the issue once and post quite a few different links just to prove to someone else that it wasn't trued and was caused by a mistranslation. And the person was still skeptical to believe it.
I can see some people at least still believe it and just say they retcon'd it in this upcoming episode.

I've tried Tyranitar, I have two, but it doesn't seem to matter what I do with their stats. Tyranitar might as well have 1 hp and be made out of tissue paper as soon as Fighting moves are involved.
And would that be Rotom-Heat, or maybe Wash? I don't like to cripple my ability to offense after one hit. I use a lot of Pokemon who are weak to Ground and Water, since I've just been training whoever I like without regards to much beyond their moves and stats.
Infernape
Metagross
Tyranitar
Swampert
Nidoking
Starmie
Haxorus
Lucario
Only Starmie and Nidoking are Special, and they of course get knocked out in one hit too. The rest are all pretty basic Attack and Speed EV, except for Swampert who's Attack and HP and one Tyranitar is Attack and Defense (doesn't really help). It's pretty obvious where they're lacking type-wise, but I can't really think of who to get. And when I do think of one (like Mamoswine), it has a useful Dream World ability I'm slow to bother getting.

Well Tyranitar is 4x times weak to fighting. Nothing you can really do there. Love Sandstream though for the Special Defenses boosts.
