SE++ Pokemon Thread: EVEN MORE FIGHTING SPIRIT

Strong pokemon. Weak pokemon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with the pokemon they love best.
Pokemon. Go out into the wild, capture monsters, and pit them in battle against each other and your friends. Why? Because.
Right now, the SE++ Pokecommunity is all abuzz about the triumphant release of HeartGold and Soulsilver. What are those? DS remakes of Gold and Silver, the best pokemon games ever made.
Wanna battle some? It's easy. Check out Bulbapedia, a wiki project seeking to compile all the information possible about everything Pokemon. Or check out Smogon, but don't take it too seriously: we're here to have fun, after all. Or hell, just ask someone in the thread: this place is full of people who'll help you with almost anything, so long as you're courteous.
Once upon a time, SE++ had its own gym league: with the release of HG/SS, the League is somewhat defunct, although many gym leaders and challengers are still around and willing to battle. While the league doesn't seem to officially exist for the time being, the rules are maintained here behind the spoiler. Will the League return? Perhaps, one day, if you are good and honest and believe in the good things of the world.
- Personal preference is paramount. Don't build a team of perfectly trained supermonsters with optimally balanced types and as devastating a moveset as possible: fight with what you like. This might mean bringing a Tropius into battle, or a Magcargo. Who the fuck cares? Losing ain't that big a deal, and winning with your favourites is the best victory.
- Gyms can be challenged in any order.
- Challengers may have two teams for challenging: an A team and a B team. That is two sets of six Pokemon with which you must gather all the badges: no switching between teams or subbing new guys in once you've started the league. It's fucking hard to build a solid team out of all one type, and you challengers gotta be nice.
- Once you've got all eight badges, you're the Champion. Nice work. Of course, anyone who has all eight badges can be Champion: if you've got eight badges, you can issue a formal challenge to the Champion, and each of you will fight with teams of your choice. The victor is crowned the Champion, old or new.
- Gym Leaders may be challenged. Assemble a team composed all of the same type as the gym leader, issue a formal challenge, and meet on the battleground. The winner becomes the Gym Leader, old or new, and can change the type of the Gym he runs provided it is not the same as another Gym. The new Gym Leader in this case will have a week from his or her taking control to assemble a team of that type to defend his badge.
- Formal challenges may only be issued twice a week. If you battle a Gym Leader three times and win the third: sorry, no badge.
- We got some banned dudes. No legendaries, duh. The bird trio, Mewtwo, Mew, the dog trio, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Regirock, Registeel and Regice, Latias and Latios, Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, Cresselia, Darkrai, Manaphy, Heatran, Regigigas, Shaymin, and Arceus.
Phew.
Also, no Wobbuffett, Blissey or Garchomp, because they are no fun to fight against.

can't have too much of a good thing
I am sorry swords, I am just grumpy that I can't play this until march 26th. Stupid release dates
Whoops, you upset Swordfights, Dichotomy.
Looks like you have to shut it down.
just about to head into union cave
man i'm slow
rather enamored with the nostalgia and sadly don't have enough time to pokebinge as i would like
to be fair I've been basically bedridden most of the time
fuckin' some shit up at level 8
take that caterpie
Pikerchu, a Magnezone
Brobro, a Slowpoke
Bahamut, a Dratini
I'd like to get a Tyranitar but swarm pokes are pretty hard to get.
banned
I'm at school, (going for IT, All the microsoft certs, a cisco cert ect) playing with my pokewalker as a nervous twitch thing, not really ashammed at all to be honest.
I wish I had brought my DSi However, as I'd be playing it right now while waiting instead of being one of the cool kids typing on the forums.
my team is around level 15
learn ember you fuck
A team Rocket Grunt also said "Hey, punk! Do you feel lucky?"
Translation Team
what silliness is this
I did not! On that point though, what badge do you need to control pokes of up to level 40?
Get a rock type, geodude will save you... specially if he knows explosion.
Watch out for attract.
Magnemite can be found outside of Ecruteak (fourth gym)
Slowpoke can be found in Slowpoke Well (near the second gym)
And Dratini can be won from the game corner (near the third gym)
because i love that thing and it took me FOREVER to breed dragon dance onto it
Yeah but there is also a Safari Zone called Safari Zone, or at least I think so.
What spring does with the cherry trees.
