Which route was it on? I gave up trying to find one. Too rare for my tastes.

The route to the right of the first city with the gym. Route 22 or something?


EDIT: WOW. I love how the TM&HM bag straight up shows you what Pokemon in the party can or can't learn whatever TM/HM your cursor is selecting. No need to boot up the TM/HM and waste your time!
 
I haven't played my Diamond version in a while so I loaded it up and it appears I was smack in the middle of breeding a bunch of Pokemon in order to start a new battle tower team. If memory recalls, I was gonna do a Sandstorm team. Can anyone point out if this team has any glaring weaknesses?

Tyranitar
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 4 hp / 252 atk / 252 speed
Stealth Rock, Crunch, Rock Slide, Fire Punch

Gliscor
Nature: Timid
EVs: 252 hp / 196 s.def / 60 speed
Baton Pass, Rock Polish, Swords Dance, Ariel Ace

Garchomp w/ Life Orb
Nature: Jolly
EVs: 4 hp / 252 atk / 252 speed
Dragon Claw, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Fire Fang

My idea is to have Tyranitar start things off because of his Sand Stream ability, and I gave him Stealth Rock since he's my opener. After he uses SR I'll just try to sweep with his insane attack power. Gliscor is obviously my baton passer, meant to set up Garchomp who should KO anyone once he gets passed a Rock Polish + Swords Dance. Even if Gliscor gets taken out, a Garchomp with Life Orb and sandstorm coverage should probably be able to take almost anyone out.

Stop shitting on my team. Start shitting on my finger.

If you select the pokemon, it also greys out all the moves it can't learn. If you want to check all the moves for a specific pokemon. It works both ways. :)

Anyone with Y wanna trade me a skrelp?

I had to sleep but if you're still up for it, I'm still in need of a female skrelp.

@thread; Is there anyone willing to help me out with my skrelp situation?

Alright no worries. :)

@thread; Anyone have a female skrelp they're willing to trade?

Really need a skrelp to complete my team. Anyone willimg to trade?

Just want to put it out there. Looking for a Skrelp, anyone looking to fo a trade? Please let me know.

Look I'm all for looking for someone to trade with, but... do you really need to make the same post so many times on the same page? :/ Just use GTS if you can't find anyone here...

(I have X, and no Skrelp)

3 badges. 11 hours. I'm mainly gonna play on the weekends now because of classes ._.
 
I beat the game in 32 hours...
35+ hours atm, not close to e4... Could get badge 5 but i have lots of things i wanna do first, mainly collecting Pokemon to severely reduce the amount i gotta look for post-game. Took over 20 hours for badge 2 and have had fun the whole time!

Wonder Trading is oddly addictive. I keep trading pokemon and if I don't like them, just send them right ahead. If I like them, send sth else from my box. Keep getting the weirdest stuff. Mostly crap, but just now got a Gurdurr that promptly evolved since it was high-level enough. Free Conkeldurr? I'll take it!

EDIT: Just got a Spritzee, which is a Y-exclusive. And I have X. <3 Wonder Trading!

Haven't really had time to play it this weekend due to hanging out with friends for Regionals. As an update, I got 70th of 220ish players in the TCG on Saturday (only top 64 get prizes ;_;) going 4-3-1 and 15th of 110ish players in the video game on Sunday going 5-2. I won 9 TCG packs for my placement video game and got godly pulls. $75 worth of cards in the nine packs. Also won a booster box in a raffle which I can apparently sell for $90! Overall pretty good.

I'm at the 5th gym with about 15 hours clocked. Really happy I was able to get through a chunk on Thursday and Friday as otherwise I would only be 3 hours in =( I'm enjoying it a decent amount which is not something I could say about any game since Pearl.

Would someone be able to upload an in-game picture of XY on their XL? I'm trying to decide between a 2DS and an XL, and while I'm really tempted by the 2DS I can't remember how games look on the XL's screens, and that's what's holding me back. So if I could see a picture, quite close up, that shows how it looks, then I'll be able to make a decision. Thank you in advance to anyone that can help.

Okay, so i cleared the game a while ago, doing post-game stuff.. but am i the only one around here really disapointed about the new pokemon? I dont like the design of most of them and there are only
68
of them!
 
Does anyone wish they'd release an anime-style battling game? Not as a mainline title; they sort of pulled off "the power of friendship" with Pokemon-Amie perfectly anyway. I'm talking shonen power levels where you actually control the Pokemon; so, something like a full 3D-movement Smash Bros. but with all Pokemon.

Hey guys, I know I'm really late, but add me! I've been sucked in and haven't been on GAF in a few days.

MY FC: 3024-5265-5661

Also, can anyone trade me over any sort of Ditto? Is Ditto in this? I want to breed some of my starters and just send them out for Wonder Trades. I got a Modest Fennekin through Wonder Trade and want to repay the favor.

You can catch Ditto in the Pokemon Village it's kind of uncommon though

Idea's been bandied around for some time, even by me. It'd be pretty neat, but it'd have to be solid as hell to be worth it. Try Pokemon Generations (fan-game) for something like this, it's pretty good for something in alpha.

I should really super-train all my pokemon before they get too many crappy stats. But then I don't really care about competition and haven't paid attention to natures anyway, so... I usually just end up half-assing it for fun :lol
