How OCD are you at Pokemon?

Saph

What OCD things do you do when playing Pokemon? For example, my Pokemon always have to be the same level. I have to battle every trainer on every single route. I have to talk to the trainer for them to battle me, I do not like them seeing me and challenging me.

If a friend plays my game and misses tons of trainers and trains my Pokemon wrong, I may be so bothered by this I may have to restart.

What are you OCD about in Pokemon?

I always have to get my Pokémon to the same level too. Once one Pokémon reaches a level, I won't use it again till all the others are the same level. And whenever I add a new Pokémon to my party I only focus on getting up to the same level. Also, when I'm in a piece of grass, I try to find a way to go through each "square" without going through one twice, and getting through the whole patch of grass.
 
I have to faint all the Legendary Pokemon, EP and Nature train all my Pokemon, and always have at least one Dragon in my team.

I have to press both B and down together when the pokeball opens. I also have to do the thing with them all the same level.

Musts in Pokemon gaming (well, for me at least):

-Hold A+B when throwing a ball.

-Train all Pokemon equally, and to a high level (at least 4-10 levels higher than the Gym Leader if I am patient enough).

-Never use a HM Slave, they're a waste of space.

-Save constantly. That's before and after every major battle and catch, and after healing and leveling up.

-ALWAYS use your starter.

-Never try anything too new =/ (though I may take a few risks in DP)

-Battle EVERY trainer and wild Pokemon. EXP is important.

--- I must always have a Sneasel in my team. Oh, who didn't see that coming?

--- When training all Pokemon must the the same level before I continue.

There's more, but those are the main two.

Behold my long list of the things I'm obsessed with doing while playing Pokemon :D:

-Like almost everyone else, all my Pokemon have to be at the same level.

-My team always has to have a Fire, Water and Grass type. I often put Flying and Ground types in as well.

-All of my Pokemon have to be different types. No two Pokemon on my team shares the same type. (Except for my FR version, where I used a Charizard and Dragonite on my team)

-I always nickname the Pokemon that are permanent members on my team.

-Recently, my Pokemon's level has to be higher or equal to the Pokemon of the Gym Leader I'm facing.

-I choose which Pokemon to battle a Pokemon or trainer (Unless its a Gym Leader, Rival, the E4, etc.) depending on how much experience they need to get to the next level. For example, say my Meowth and my Geodude were at the same level. Meowth needs 100 more experience points to gain a level and Geodude needs 200. I would choose Meowth to battle because it needs less experience points to get to the next level.

-If at the end of a trainer battle, my Pokemon is very close to gaining a level, I go out and battle a wild Pokemon to raise its level instead of battling another trainer.

-If I capture a Shiny Pokemon (with the exception of the Red Gyarados in G/S/C) before I have six permenent Pokemon on my team, then the Shiny will become part of the team.

-Save before and after every trainer battle, with the exception of the E4. In the E4, I only save the game right before I face the Champion.

-I must carry at least five Poke/Great/Ultra Balls at all times. (Because, y'know, I'm paranoid about seeing a shiny Pokemon and have no Poke Balls on me; although it never happens)

-I always sort my Pokemon in my boxes by their Nature.

-In Pokemon XD, I don't use the Purification Chamber (except for Lugia), so I purify my Pokemon the old way. I usually begin purifying my Shadow Pokemon as soon as I get it and have no more than three Shadow Pokemon waiting to be purified.

-Lastly, my starter Pokemon must ALWAYS be part of my team.

My list:

-My party is always composed of 4 fighters and 2 HM slaves.

-Only the fighters fight.

-All fighters must be at the same level.

-When all the fighters in my party are at an equal level, the Pokemon that has the lowest HP goes first.

-I save about every ten minutes.

-Sell any items that are not useful and save money.

-Have at least ten of each kind of Pokeball in my bag.

-The level of my fighters has to equal the gym leaders Pokemon.

-When one of my fighters is worn down I always go back to the Pokemon Center to heal them instead of using an item.

Yay! I'm not the only one!

1. Since I hatch all my pokemon for egg moves, I'm very specific about where I want them to hatch, for example: Two days ago I hatched a swinub, and because it was going to be a swinub, I declared that I would only walk around IceFall cave until it hatched; since personally, I find "Hatched: Route 11 at level 5" really boring.

2. It really bothers me when I let myself go beneath 800,000 in money.

3. Always Save my game on Birth Island if I'm going to not be playing again for more than half a hour.

I don't have too many. All my pokemon must be on the same level, I must save at the Battle Frontier, I must get a time lower than 9.20 on Cycling Road in R/S/E before continuing, and I must always buy 99 Soda Pop's in R/S/E from the shack on Slateport's beach.

Silver Dragonair

OMG internetz
I always pick treeko in RSE and never evolve Grovyle
 
-I battle Every trainer.
-I get every Pokémon at the same level.
-When there's a line or assortment of trainers, I leave a pattern.
-I organize my PC by: Type>Level>Gender>Name, but I might change it to their Pokédex number.
-I try my best to have the right moveset and stats for my Pokémon.
-Im organize my backpack like a maniac. There's too much to explain about that one.

I'm sure there's more, but I can't remember it all.

A couple more things.

--- I must have at least $300,000. Any less and it bothers me.

--- Certain Sneasels of mine have certain "partners" that must be with them in the team. Fai-Miroke must be in the same team as Laaqnessa (( Persian )) and Valtou (( Misdreavus )), Airan-Jo must be with Jalousie (( another Sneasel )), Natsumeya to be with Nicteris (( Scizor )), Lesaens must have Nahonal (( Latias )) as her partner and Reqosh goes with Asilryth (( Murkrow )). The rest of my army just go as they please. Usually as a sixsome. ;D

--- Always save in a Pokemon Center.

I am crazy over legendaries and pseudos. As in, I hate using them.

I Never have an HM slave. EVER. Not because it's a waste of space but because the Pokemon can learn better attacks.
 
-My team must be composed of at least 3 Duel types
-I must battel EVERY Trainer in the Gyms. Regardless. It gets tireing in Norman's gym and Tate&LIza's Emerald Gym
-My Starter or its offspring must ALWAYS be in my team
-I have to have A Jhoto pokemon in my team
-Rare Candies MUST Be used right away

The last ones probly the weirdist
