    FYI, typical IV battle etiquette is for both people to run after the first round. That way, the game registers a tie.

    Well this is cool!

    Shiny Porygon
    Modest
    28/5/16/27/27/15

    Thing's actually halfway usable!

    The rest have bad IVs or natures, though.

    The worst offender is this one:

    Shiny Gastly
    Calm
    30/25/28/7/15/9

    God, bad IVs and nature where it counts. That shit sucks.

    Yeah, I hate it when my shinies have bad stats.

    Oh wait...

    I've been having some luck with shinies. I got a shiny Manectric with decent IVs, but it's Adamant and has the wrong ability. But my shiny Donphan is awesome where it needs to be... And has a nature that lowers its sp def.

    I also have another shiny Phanpy that has a nature that lowers its att :(

    And Shoe never claimed it (Well, when he did, I wasn't around, and he never answered my PMs).

    Huzzah! My first real team is complete!
    I am still going to work on replacing one of the members, but even if I don't, the old one is still ok! On the plus side, the replacement evolves with a stone so I don't need to e4 grind it.

    People interested in Tri Attack Togepi:

    I need to know if only one of you would want one if I just got one, or if you would all like one and wouldn't mind having clones of one. I can't clone, but someone has already offered to clone one for me if I can acquire one.

    And, thanks to someone showing me more kindness than I deserve, I now have:
    Logepi
    Relaxed
    Serene Grace
    Level 27
    Has Tri Attack

    I'd have two or three more, but like a complete idiot I was too slow in responding to the posts. I'm really sorry. :(

    I wouldnt mind having a cloned one, heck I wouldnt even mind if it had a bad nature or IVs and such since nothing spells Doom like a Tri Attack Togepi.

    Yeah Roserade is cool don't insult him I use him :(

    Infact I think 4 of my pokemans are from this generation, and 2 are from first generation. The two generations I played.

    Among the six of them they're probably my favorite pokemon, other than maybe Blastoise and Drifblim, but I don't use those guys.

    I'd grab a Luxray and a Rapidash and eat that gym alive.

    Okay, confirm it. I have three copies of Logepi to hand out. I apologize that I could not get three unique ones and realize that some people object to cloning. Still, I think that makes the two copies I originally promised to look for (for Tacofiend and kabuki64) and one extra for whoever wants it. Again, I'm sorry I used cloning and couldn't get unique ones. Now I'm heading to bed, I'm quite tired.

    EDIT: Woops, I only have three copies total, but that's fine since I just won't keep one for myself. Really heading to bed now.

    You can beat the ice gym rather easily with a fighting type poke, there should be some Medities or Medichams around that area which should help you out. You can find some nice leveling spots for your guys in the wild, I kinda forget where I leveled mine up, but you should fight as many trainers as you can along the way, those are the best to level up off.

    Shuckle- Rosenburg (Ethel Rosenberg)
    Marowak- Alger Hiss
    Rotom- FredFisher

    why aren't we just breeding the togepi?

    also, i might be interested if someone is breeding (not that i necessarily mind a cloned one, since i'll end up breeding it anyway, just as long as it isn't hax'd IVs etc)

    oh wait you can't breed tri attack into it can you ; ;

    Yeah, it's like Bahumut said. Still not much of an aesthetic improvement in my book -- I generally don't go in for the humanoid Pokemon. :P

    I've been breeding Pokeymans like a madman.

    I think at this point it's just a matter of picking and choosing which ones I want to use.

    Lucario reminds me of Anubis, so I guess it can escape my burning hatred. ;)

    Bronzor was especially bad for my team -- if he has a weakness, I couldn't find it, so I had to plink away at him with attacks that did no more than 1/3 of his max HP. While confused and often sleeping. And IIRC he used a HP berry and a potion. It was a mean Gym battle. On the bright side, I now know that I reeaaaally want to find me a Shieldon at some point.

    I have a bunch of fossils with them, but the damned thing looks like a Pokegimp. I'm not having that on my team. If you have Pearl just go dig underground, you'll find one within 15 minutes of digging.

    Bronzong can have Heatproof which means it has only one weakness: Fire or Ground. And you don't know which one unless you use one of them. Its toilet-shaped upside down head is tempting me to use it so very hard.

    Aw, c'mon, it's cute, and Bastod(i?)on is badass. Anyhow -- Diamond here, and I guess it's one of the exclusives. :( Do you think we could arrange a trade? I haven't found any fossils underground and I don't have much of interest, but I do have a male Turtwig (lv1) and I can find the simpler Diamond exclusives like Stunky and Murkrow.

    Try getting one on GTS, don't look for one but ask for one in exchange for one of your Pokes. If all else fails I or someone else can breed one for you later.

    It tells you if the opponent knows a move that would be Super-Effective against your guy.

    Yeah, I guess that's the smart thing to do. I sent up a Golduck. Re: Stunky, I meant simple to find. I wouldn't cast aspersions on him, or especially not on Murkrow, who is totally 100% awesome. Mine is named Faustus. <3
