Overkill Training

I have noticed that in Blue, i usually have a Nidoking by Cerulean Gym along with a Level 40 Venasaur. Anyone else other than me do overkill training? I think its nice, when you are fighting your rival who has lvl 20's with level 50+
 
Yeah, I use to make my pokémon 10 levels stronger than the strongest pokémon there is in the area I am at, especially my starter and my favourites.
 
Thats just crazy. When I had (yes HAD, I lost my Blue a long tome ago) Blue I was around the levels of gym leaders
 
i did that when i was 5 i traine my rattata even more than my pikachu ( it was yellow version) and it was a lv36 when i defeated brock lol.
 
OMG you beat brock with a lvl 36 pikachu!!!! and yeah i beat the elite four with a lvl 90 blatoise and lvl 87 pikachu lvl 70 venasaur lvl 100 charazard
lvl 72 dugtrio and lvl 69 Pidgeot so i beat them first time!!!
 
I used to over train my starter pokemon (i only used it through out the 8 badges/ elite 4). After that i trained other pokemon. I had a level 20 charmeleon by the end of brock's first apprentice, level 40 charizard by misty (i knocked out each pokemon i came across). I don't do that anymore...
 
No.

Too much training = boring
Killing every enemy with one move = boring

In my opinion, at least.

I usually train to me about 4 levels above the enemy. Any more is overdoing it IMO, unless I'm desperate to evolve my Pokemon or want a certain level-up move.
 
Before I got to the first gym, I had lv25: Wartortle, Nidorina, Nidorino, Fearow, Pidgeotto, and lastly, Raticate. Of course, this was when I started my game over for the 7th time.
 
Damn! I thought I trained them rough. That must take a lot of patience. When I get to the Diglett Cave I will train mine up to level 50 or 60 before I face Lt. Surge. You can get a lot of Exp from Diglett's and Dugtrio's.
 
No. Over-Training makes things boring by a number of reasons:
1) It is EXTREMELY boring fighting Wild Pokemon only for LV-ing up, and that´s in all games, not only Pokemon ones
2) It is boring fighting trainers that will always be weaker than you by 20 LVs, or more
 
Lol, reminds me of when I couldn't beat Brock in my old Yellow Version. I raised a pidgeotto I caught to level 20, then beat him. I had lv 70 pidgeot at sabrina.
 
Hmm. Well that's odd. I always thought if you overtrain, the monsters you have start to disobey you until you get the badge. Is this only true for traded Pokemon because I always train and level up under LV 30 early in the game because I don't have the Blue/Cascade Badge yet.
 
OVERKILL train? I don't even normal train. >> I fight trainers and wild Pokemon I happen to come across on my way to the next area, but that's as far as I go. Hell, half the time I even flee from the wild Pokemon.​
