    So there's space for 540 pokemon in the storage, enough to contain my dream of having one of every pokemon in national dex order.

    Also my theme team is nearly ready, I just have one more to finish EV training and evolve.

    Taya has already beaten you to that dream.
    Well, she doesn't have an Arceus. I think that's the only one, though.

    After years of delay I finally picked up a Pokemon game.

    Yay for Platinum.

    I can now do two totally awesome things.

    1) Make a super awesome team.

    2) Finally use that Mew I got at Toys R Us years ago which has been sitting on my Emerald cart with me saying "I'll train it when I get Diamond/Pearl" Yeah.

    Of course now there's a Non-event way to get Mew...

    I don't know of any Non-Event Mew. Unless you're talking about Red/Blue

    Also, that Mew can't be transfered over until you've beaten the E4 and gotten the upgraded dex

    You can get a Mew from Pokemon Ranch.

    Also, I know that I need to beat the Elite Four and fill the Pokedex and all that jazz.

    oh yeah, thats right. Thats so ridiculous though, you need over 900 pokemon to put on the Ranch and I don't think you even have any control on the type of Nature it has.
    I thought for a second that you meant the Mew in Emerald, but thats basically an event pokemon also.

    I could give you one of those Mews (the TRU Mew) if you want to run through the game with it.

    Wait, is it possible to trade it over even before you get the National Dex?

    If so I'll just bug my brother into helping me.

    If you use the Azure Flute to get to Arceus, can you return to that area afterwards? Because if so I would really love to hatch my Pokemon there so they had a unique birthplace.

    Nothing can be transfered in from the GBA games until you've gotten the National Dex, but Diamond/Pearl/Platinum have no restrictions on trading to one another.
    If you've already beaten D/P then you can transfer stuff over to that version and trade it over to Platinum.

    Bah. If either Empoleon or Staraptor had died (specs focus blast has a decent chance of knocking out empoleon, or it could have not missed) I would have won this. Also, if I had used Dragon Claw instead of Earthquake. Underestimated Growth.

    Good battle, close.

    Yeah, you can post it.

    Fuuuuuck Fooooocus Blaaaaast. The staraptor survival, while annoying, didn't have as huge an effect on the match as empoleon managing to take out gengar.

    Petitioning that Gengar learn Aura Sphere.

    A gengar set without focus blast is a bad gengar set I'm sorry to say. Ghost/fighting is too good of coverage.

    I guess focus punch would work it this wasn't yknow a timid specs set

    Yeah, Katakana is used for foreign names, shouting, some names, onomatopoeia, Pokémon names and a bit other stuff. Katakana could be considered the equivalent of upper case.

    That's how they've been doing it since the RB days. Also, all Pokés' names are in Katakana in Japan.

    Can we maybe do the trades tomorrow, Rockin? I -might- be able to battle then too, but I have family visiting, and my sister's staying over. It'd be a bit crappy of me to ignore her for a half hour or so to battle when I don't see her that often.
