Silueta of the niw pokemon its confirmed:
Welcome to Pokémon tread! Here we are share opinion, the trads and battling with Pokémon.
If you don't what Pokémones are, the this thread is not for the you! Bt, we help you can understand what they is.
If you don't care about Pokémon, then GTFO.
Pokémon short for ポケットモンスター or Pocket Monsters. They are creatures that are each one based on an element and are able to attack with moves from those elements. You use your own creatures to capture more and more species you find in the wild. There are 493 of them, and each one has a varying degree of usability in battle.
Tiers, much like in fighting games, will give you an idea of which of them will make it more likely to win a match, but won't necessarily guarantee your victory. For the most up-to-date tier list and probably the most reliable and most used, please refer to
Smogon, which also offers examples of movesets and EV spreads that will give you an idea of what to do with yours.
If you want to be a trainer, and don't even know which version to buy, you can either get Diamond or Pearl for your battling needs, although there is a third version, Platinum (which is out now) and you might want to grab that one instead, as it features several options not available in Diamond or Pearl. There are also two other versions coming, Heart Gold and Soul Silver which are remakes of the game that came out exactly ten years ago in Japan.

What you need to start battling:
- First of all, finish the main game first. Trying to understand and manipulate EVs and IVs before that will be a pain.
- Once you've beaten the Elite Four, the real fun* begins. First, give
Individual Values or IVs a read. You will also want to know everything about
breeding and
Effort Values or Evs.
Natures Natures should also be read.
- Now that you know some things about EVs, you can either grind at the Battle Tower for the points needed to buy the
Power Items or borrow them from someone who is used to play here at G&T. These items will make EV training much easier.
- If you aren't sure what to do with your Pokés, check out
Smogon for some tips that will help you choose an appropriate EV spread and moveset for your Mons.
- Check out Psypoke's
EV training spots.
- Also, check out what's inside the spoiler for a better way to breed eggs (doesn't work in Platinum):

- And more importantly: Have fun! It doesn't matter if you win or lose. You must have learned something from experience, and if your newest creation wasn't as good as thought it'd be and you want to keep it boxed, don't feel discouraged. We all have trained some Pokémon that we'll never use again because it sounded better on paper than it performed in practice.
General battling rules
- Pokémon battles through Wi-fi automatically level your Pokémon to either levels 50 or 100. So you don't have to train them to level 100 yourself, saving a lot of time. In fact, it will be better if you don't level them up all the way to level 100 since you at that stage you won't be able to edit your Pokés' EVs.
-Sleep Clause: you may not put more than one of your opponent's Pokémon to sleep at a time.
-Species Clause: your team must be comprised of six different species of Pokémon.
-Suicide Clause: If both players are down to their last Pokémon, the player with the first Pokémon to hit 0 HP is the loser. In other words, using moves like Self Destruct and Explosion cause you to lose, even if it kills your opponent. However, using a move with a recoil that kill both you and your opponent is a win for you.
-No Legendary Pokémon whatsoever. This includes
Wobbuffet and
Garchomp.
Warnings
- Do NOT buy Pokémon Battle Revolution unless you hate yourself.
- If you use U-Turn with a Choice Banded Pokémon, and your next Pokémon also has U-Turn, it will be locked to U-Turn as well. It seems this was a glitch in DP ans was fixed in Platinum. Thanks to Ashton Dragon for the first bit of information and to InvisibleInk for the second bit.
- If your opponent Yawns you and you have a Chesto Berry, you might not want to use Rest, because at the end of that turn you will have woken up with the Chesto Berry after Resting, then you'll fall asleep again because of the Yawn.
- Don't take a bath with your
Tentacool.
- Beware: The game is very addictive once you join the community. Make your time.

I've tried for days and I just cant get my Nintendo USB dongle to work with my new router. I miss IV checking :x
Does HGSS have local level 100 battles?
Kind of odd that there's so little variation in that type.
edit: Oh, you didn't. My bad.
Almost did, to tell the truth.
So, can anybody with the G/S remakes tell me if Whitney is still impossibly hard?
I've heard from TvTropes about Miltank flinchaxing teams with Stomp and murdering Gastleys with Normal-type moves, thanks to Scrappy. That's secondhand, though.
Like the hedgehog thing with the exploding neck!

I swear to god you guys. I had a togekiss that was 31 26 31 31 31 31. And I lost it.
Ah, that one from the previous thread.
...There's something seriously wrong when Hypno looks less creepy than Chansey. To say nothing of Blissey.
And, as said before, Cloyster looks like the Gate of Truth, Gengar's face is flowing, etc.
It's all very awesome, but very creepy.

The only OU starters are Swampert, Empoleon and Infernape. Feraligatr, Sceptile, Blastoise, Venusaur and Torterra are all UU, while the rest are NU. It's not exactly the worst.
Although, I did train an Aimbepom (or however you spell it) a long time ago and was happy when he was fully trained. Hmmm.

All monotypes? Lame! And their evolutions are hardly evolutions. Charizard gets wings. Torterra gets a bonsai tree. Blastoise gets water cannons. The 2nd gen crew? They're all just the same thing they were before, only bigger!
As for the second gen starters, I personally love their design. They may only become bigger, but those guys brought me through my whole childhood! It's probably just nostalgia, but those are my favorite pokemon of all.
Modest
Jolly
Timid
If it's not too much trouble. Anything you need to see on your Pokedex? I don't have many event legendaries but I've got all the 3rd gen legends except Latias and Kyogre.
Also I think I need your FC again.
Do you play any of the guys on here?
I definitely want to play you guys and I also want to jump on to the Wii game and battle some randoms.

I'll be on in a minute.
EDIT: Also, you're getting a Feebas just in case. I saw one in my box and thought to myself "There's a Pokemon that is a pain in the butt to get."
Hey! Totodile gets belly spots when he evolves!
I'll be on in a minute Chen.
When HGSS comes out, I'm going to have a whole set of 6 SuperPokemon for my team. Prenamed, packing their evolution items, and loaded up with fancy egg moves, their extra fast leveling will make the game a breeze with hopefully a minimum of grinding.
