I noticed something at the Battle Factory...

[Pokemonger49777]

I battled Noland for the silver symbol twice. Both times he had a Raichu and both times I had an Electrode. I don't think his pokemon are random, I think they are preset depending on the pokemon you have. Can somebody verify this?

 

[hIrAm]

Yes, I can.

HIS POKéMON ARE RANDOM. I've went in twice against him for Silver, and both tiems I've had an Omastar AND a Bayleef. He had completely different pokémon both times.

 

[Pokemonger49777]

Maybe it was just a coincedense.

 

[Levski]

Coincidence is right.

 

[Robert1559]

all pokemon are random

 

[Clashofthetitans]

Random. Raaannnndddddoooooommmmmmmm

 

[Lord Scalgon]

Yep, definitely random. Whatever happens, happens.

 

[davidone10]

Coincidence. Nuff' said.

 

[ThegameHHH]

Coincidence you can get them twice but its unlikely.

 

[Pokemonger49777]

OKAY PEOPLE I GET IT! It was really unlikely to happen though.

 

[Navneet]

[davidone10]

Unless, maybe your game is glitched?

Noland's team is completely random. I went there several times,and he always uses different pokemon.

 

[Emerald master]

Yeah, it's probably just a coincidince

 

[Metagross]

Definitely random, but in the Gold match Noland uses Moltres very often.

 

[Metroid_Sniper]

i thought he used articuno in the anime. hey, how come ash always gets the gold symbol, why doesnt he have to win twice?

 

[medaton]

Because the show isnt suposed to follow the games or vice-versa.

 

[fire maniac]

tis' was random
