    How about Aipom?

    "Hey Hey We're the monkeys"

    And so on.


    God, it's like some sort of riddle.


    Oh, or a Lickylicky.

    You can relate that to most modern rap songs.


    Croagunk?

    Jeremiah was a bull frog, after all.

    A toxicroak named Jeremiah actually isn't a bad idea.

    I did trade off my Toxicroak and have been meaning to get a spare, either by trading for one or trading for a Croagunk. I don't know many words to that song but I'm getting sick of "postmarked Tombstone" playing over and over in my head.

    I guess I could take that. Or something that would remind me of the "Like the Rain" song. I like the "Like the Rain" song.

    OOOOOhhhhhhhhhhhhh
    I never liked the rain till I walked through it with you
    Every thunder cloud that came was one more I might not get through
    On the darkest day there's always light, and now I see it too
    But I never liked the rain till I walked through it with you!

    Ohhhhh
    I hear falling in the night, filling up my mind
    etc.

    That's all off key by the way, when I sing it. :D

    P.S. I just got a Salac Berry, that's good right?

    I will have to catch one.

    Only at night or what? When is the bare minimum time for a Poke to show up in a tree after I slather it with Honey?

    Oh man I need to fill that slot in my Pokedex. It mocks me.

    You can get Drifloon at any time of the day on Friday.

    Okay, I'll breed you up a frog. Unless you want a Castform instead. Since it changes with the weather and there's Rain Dance. I guess.


    EDIT
    Your frog is ready.

    The frog would be fine. I need Toxicroak anyway and I think it evolves at a fairly low level, right?

    I'm all out of posts on that place (you only get a few a day) but if someone gives me a challenge I'll try and get whatever they want the next day. It can be fun (and also horrifying and all that).

    I need an IV check guys. I have 3 batches of Aerodactyls to check. It took forever to breed that many with the right nature and ability but I did it. The last batch and a half were born to a father with high attack and perfect defense and a mother with perfect speed. Hopefully I will get some good ones.

    Oh hey, that's new.

    edit: Aww I'm not getting any people.

    edit2: t TC: It isn't too bad unless you are trying to get something with a certain nature and 1 of 2 abilities. It takes forever then. Then sometimes you have to rebreed which is hell.

    But an extra 0-31 points in a particular stat is worth it to me.

    Yeah it takes awhile, but what else can you do? So far I'm 3/3 for it, although it takes awhile to find someone else.

    IV breeding takes such a huge amount of time, so I doubt I'll do that for all my mans, but at the same time I can't stand not checking to see if it's just like all 0s.

    Currently working on an Eevee to be Umbreon, and I had to take my excellent male parent out to breed some things to trade, and now I can't use him anymore since he's since learned new moves ;_;

    Hey that's awesome. Perfect Special Attack? My Magby has 30.

    I'll probably use this Aerodactyl:
    HP: 30
    Att: 24
    Def: 24
    SpA: 7
    SpD: 12
    Speed: 30

    I'd hate to see the Daycare center after all of the Pokemon I have released from breeding.

    Aerodactyl and Scythers wreaking havoc with Magbys starting forest fires. Turtwigs eating everything, Feebas swarming in the waterways, and Porygon everywhere.

    Good stats all around for the both of us!
    Except for my stupid Tangelas. The best I got was 31 31 4 29 31 29. Which isn't too bad I guess, seeing as Tangrowth's defense is much higher than its special defense, but still, way to break my two digit IVs, you leafy bastards.

    Damn. Other than the defense, that is killer.

    EV training question. If I had a Macho Brace and Pokerus, and I were fighting that guy with 6 Magikarp (1 Speed each = 6 Speed Total), I would get 6*2*2 = 24 Speed EVs per battle correct? I want to make sure I am calculating everything correctly.

    So if I had a Power item for Speed I could get 60 Speed EVs in one battle?

    I'm on a minor Poke-hiatus pretty much for the sole reason that I really don't want to IV breed my new team. I'm already a bit disheartened by the fact that three batches of Lickitungs have turned up shit, which is especially annoying given that unless I get lucky I have to breed the Lickitung I'm trying to get right now with another ditto to get it some Sp. DEF.
