Congrats you bastard, I've never had a shiny =/. I think one time I saw a shiny taurus in the wild, but I ran away before I realized because I was hurrying through the area. Then I pause and was like "oh shit, was there a sparkly swirl thingy at the beginning of that encounter?"

Damn, that is AWFUL!Kinitari said:
I found a Shiny magnemite recently in the safari zone, and I was totally getting ready to run away but I stopped myself and was like, "heeeeey, why doesn't he have red/blue poles?!" so I caught him just in case and yep, it sure was a shiny! Boring coloration on magnezone, but still exciting! I'm gonna have two legit shinies on the same team now! I'm so stoked I could stroke it!

I've gotten my ass kicked by him too many damn times to count because I'd never completely fixed my team for 1v1 matches. but I finally kicked that bastard's ass.
He didn't stand a chance against stealth rock, ice beams and STAB thunderpunches!
Goddamn do I love Empoleon, Electivire and Gliscor!

You think that's bad? I managed to run away from a damned shiny Haunter after it kept escaping from my pokeballs. That shit ruined my week.Kinitari said:

Trying to decide wither or not I should train Togepi or Hoot Hoot...
Hey guys. Since I'm done breeding charmanders for the REST OF MY LIFE, does anybody want the level 66 charmander I just pulled out of the day care? His current move list is crap (Fire Fang, Slash, Flamethrower, Fire Spin) due to him leveling from 1 to 66 in the day care. But with a couple rare candies, some EV training (he is EV clean) and some TMs and/or the move relearner, somebody could turn him into a beast.
I don't need anything in return for him, but if you have any legendaries, or rare pokes laying around to spare, you could toss me something nice. No biggie if not though. If you'll use him, I want you to have him.
My FC is 3653 2713 6337 Gimme yours and meet me online.

Goddamnit Palmer you whoooooore! I've been grinding the Battle Tower to get enough B.P. to afford all the Power items - the first 20 battles and then Palmer gives you 26 points, then you can throw the next battle and keep repeating the easy levels - when Palmer decides to lead with his Milotic instead of his Dragonite for the first time. I'd been leading with my Salamence, so I switch to my own Milotic to eat up the obvious Ice Beam.
So my Milotic gets Ice Beamed. And Goddamn FROZEN! For fucking EIGHT turns. And, just to rub it in, he uses Attract while I'm frozen, because he's an asshole. I couldn't switch out because my Marowak would have gotten Surfed and my Salamence probably wouldn't OHKO it. My Milotic survives because it's a motherfucking beast, and I manage to get a Toxic in after I unfreeze between all the immobilization by love. It's lucky low level Battle Tower AI doesn't understand the concept of switching because if he had just used his Rhyperior I would have been completely boned. Instead he though it was a good plan to just keep Surfing my Milotic for about twelve turns :lol

Togepi has way better evolutions and an absolutely gigantic movepool. It's also got great defense stats and a beastly 290+ sp. Attack.vectorman06 said:

liQuid, congrats on your shiny! That's how I got my shiny charmander; name him Carbon.
also got a shiny piplup using the Matsuda method.
Tried on about 100 Dratinis but no luck...but now my poke ranch has a blue tint. :lol

I asked this before but no one answered so I'll try again.
I'm going to be restarting my game and I have some level 1 Pokemon and a level 50 Snorlax (4 total) I would like to have when I start my new game. I was wondering if someone would take these Pokemon and then trade them back to me after I start my new game. So if you have 4 Pokemon you don't care about and don't mind seeing fade into new game oblivion you would be a great help.

Thanks! I'm seriously thinking about trying again for another shiny poke, but man did I put a LOT of work into charmander, and I feel like I lucked out at only 13 boxes! Statistically I barely bred a third of what I should have had to. I don't know if I'm willing to tempt fate for another pokemon, but man are shinies just disgustingly addictive!biggyfries said:liQuid, congrats on your shiny!

I feel bad that I'm gonna be replacing my trusty magmorter in my team, after 70 hours of loyal firestarting, but man is shiny charizard going to look AWESOME!
Ryan, I'm in a great mood right now, so I would love to help you out with this.ryan-ts said:
FC= 3653 2713 6337 Lemme go make sure I've got a couple junk pokes to trade you, but I'll be ready to roll in a couple minutes tops.
Ed: Hey, just wanna make sure you realize you're gonna have to play through the first couple hours of the game to get to your palpad, right? I've got no problem waiting for you, it'd probably be easier if we were IM'ing though. Got an AIM client? I'm LiQuid3600 there if you want to send me a message.
Yeah, got both of your FCs in. I guess lemme try reconnecting. I'll confirm I got both while I'm out. Is my registering a platinum FC for the first time the reason I'm seeing two terminals? I've only ever seen one before.Nayishiki said:

Did you have 9500+ steps on it?
Ok, that's probably the reason for that then, but I confirmed your platinum FC, it's all good, but I don't see you in the lobby at all. I think I must be having connection problems again. This is whack.Nayishiki said:
I'm in the lobby and inviting a trade, but I still see nobody in my lobby.

I'm also in the lobby and don't see you.I don't know why.
Edit: I can see you With Soul Silver.
Ok, just saw you, but I think it was your SS FC since that was the name that popped up. It vanished within instants though.
I don't get it.
I'll disconnect to confirm your Pt FC again, but I'm certain it was correct. Normally if I put an FC in wrong the game tells me it's invalid. Confirm you have my proper code in your Pt game too:
3653 2713 6337

leveling up my elekid, magby and ryhorn to evolve them its gonna be pretty dope to have a magmortar.
Also I started up platinum, I bought it last year and only played it for a couple hours. Went with a chimchar but I kinda wanted an empoleon. Oh well hopefully some gaffer can give me the other starters in a few days.

Doesn't give me much hope. :/
Is there something you need to do to connect the 2G remakes to the 4G games??? This is weird. When I step from one terminal section to the other it beeps and my lower screen changes color, either yellow/gold or light greenish. Are you sure the lobby side I'm standing on has nothing to do with it?Nayishiki said:
Hey, Nayishiki, try connecting again. I just connected to the Union Room, on the UPSTAIRS of the pokemon center instead of the downstairs. I'm not sure if that is how you connect to the gen 4 games or what, but I just read on Yahoo answers to go Upstairs...

I've tried connecting to both terminals for like 5 minutes each and it didn't seem to matter. I'm in the union room now, which I guess is different from the downstairs lobbies in some way? I'm not sure, but try again.Nayishiki said:
This is fucking bonkers and confusing as hell the way this is set up.
