Watering berries; seems to be about the only thing I do in the game anymore.

Did my best Pal Parking yet, day 4 of it I believe:

~Rayquaza, level 72. I didn't reset for nature and I used it for a few E4 rushes, so this one isn't ever going to compete, it's purely for Dex completion.
~Blaziken
~Ditto, I can finally do some decent breeding!
~Altaria
~Shroomish
~Ninjask (don't really know why I sent this one, Nincada are available in Platinum)

All of them had useful TMs held that I hadn't used in Emerald.

I finally got a Heracross from Honey Trees. Stuck the Leafeon that I'd evolved as soon as I got my first Eevee in Day Care with the newly acquired Ditto. I can finally get the rest of the eeveelutions, which I couldn't do before as the Leafeon is male.

I'm also currently checking out Snowpoint Temple. Still haven't seen my Jynx. That Heracross I caught made me want to check out its stats, which made me want to check out other fighting-type Pokemons' stats, which made me change my pick for my competitive fighter from Gallade to Breloom. I'll start breeding for that some time soon.

This morning, I flew to Sandgem Town to see what the swarm was for today. It was Snubull on Route 209 so I decided to walk rather than fly there. I took a sort of roundabout there and caught a Sunkern whilst doing so. For a time being I also went underground and found a Dome fossil, which I then revived to a Kabuto. I did a couple daily events and watered my berries. Finally I made it to Route 209 and caught a Snubull which I named Fairy. I then traveled to Solaceon and showed the newspaper man a Gligar to get some Dive Balls. Then I discovered once again my two Growlithe have laid another egg. So I'm going to walk around to hatch that and continue to train Abe the Aipom who is now quite close to learning double Hit and evolving to Ambipom.

All in all, good day in the land of Sinnoh.

This thread's kind of died down since HG/SS came out. Sorry about double posting, but, well, it HAS been two days since I posted last, so I don't think it should be a problem.

Training up a Froslass right now; this pretty little thing is easily my favorite 4th gen Pokemon. I've always been a fan of ghost types, and ice is awesome too, so an ice-ghost that looks this good is perfect.

I also went deep into Coronet and caught myself a Dratini. I intend to train it up to a Dragonair and then Everstone it -- I've always liked Dragonair better than Dragonite. But this will be later, as after Froslass, I'm going to work on the next Pokemon for my new team.

Yes, I've finally got a complete team planned, instead of random stuff. Check my sig to see what it is. Once it's completely trained, I'll head to the house full of E4 and Gym Leaders, beat them up, and then run off laughing to the Battle Frontier.

Current Team
'Sayuri' the Froslass + lv38
Luxray + lv62 (He's the trainer to help the others level)
Heracross + lv50
Jolteon + lv21
Gastrodon(east) + lv30

Currently breeding to get a Super Luck Absol, and I haven't done anything about getting a Rapidash yet. Later!

Current Pokedex
Pokemon Seen: 313
Pokemon Caught: 187
Time Played: 91:43

Really? Seriously? NOBODY else is playing Platinum anymore? Geez. I guess I won't bother posting again until somebody else does, otherwise this will just be a wall of my posts that nobody reads. How lame.

JESUS FREAK
Traded my Infernape, Lucario, Gamestop Jarichi and my pikachu colored pichu from Platinum to Soul Silver. I also traded my lvl 1 Elekid, my lvl 1 Magby and my shiny Beautifly from Pearl to Soul Silver.

Worry not Dresden, I've just started over recently and I feel incredibly obsolete. I must say this is the fastest I've gone through a Pokémon game so far--having my sister's Luxray helped out a lot. From what I can remember, this is the important rundown of what's happened, if I remember correctly:

Mar. 18:
>By resetting a few times for a female, I got a shiny. Making it my second 4th gen shiny,
my first being a female Bibarel in Pearl. So yes, a relaxed hot-pink Chimchar for a starter. Named her Jacqueline.
>Caught Zubat, Shinx (Xavier), Lax Budew (Rosaire), Bold Psyduck (Elizabeth).
>Defeated Roark (morning).

Mar. 19:
>Freed Valley Windworks from Team Galactic.
>Caught Hasty Buizel (Dart)
>Proceeded through Eterna Forest with Cheryl.
>Defeated Gardenia (early afternoon).
>Caught Chingling.
>Received Togepi egg from Cynthia.
>Rescued Bicycle Shop Owner from Team Galactic.
>Hatched Naive Togepi (Kite) in the Old Chateau.
>Wondered whether or not to capture Rotom. Decided to postpone.

Mar. 20:
>Caught Cherubi. (morning)
>Defeated Fantina. (noon)
>Escorted Mira from Wayward Cave. (afternoon)
>Traded in-game Buizel for Chatot.
>Evolved Cherubi -> Cherrim.
>Caught Jolly Scyther (Friedrich).

Mar. 21:
>Received Porygon.
>Traded Shinx for Pidgey.
>Defeated Maylene (morning) and Crasher Wake (night).
>Evolved (Pidgey -> Pidgeotto) at Lvl. 16.
>Traded Jolly Scyther (Friedrich) for Calm Luxray (Ben).

Mar. 22:
>Caught Quiet Girafarig.
>Evolved Elizabeth (Psyduck -> Golduck) at Lvl. 33 (noon), Jacqueline (Chimchar -> Monferno) at Lvl. 41, (Pidgeotto -> Pidgeot) at Lvl. 36.
>Defeated Byron (early afternoon), Candice (mid-afternoon), and Cyrus in Veilstone HQ (late-afternoon).
>Escorted Riley. Drove out Team Galactic from Iron Island.
>Received Riolu egg.
>Solved the puzzle in Distortion World.
>Defeated Cyrus again in DW (night).
>Caught Lax Giratina (Thanatos)

CURRENT TEAM:
- ;391; Lvl. 48 Shiny Monferno/F/Relaxed
- ;405; Lvl. 55 Luxray/M/Calm
- ;203; Lvl. 35 Girafarig/M/Quiet
- ;421; Lvl. 37 Cherrim/M/Calm
- ;055; Lvl. 43 Golduck/F/Bold
- ;018; Lvl. 38 Pidgeot/M/Hasty
Subject to change for 8th gym challenge.

... It's obvious I had nothing better to do. Actually I make it a habit to name all my Pokémon, but I forgot while I was typing. There are also a few other Pokémon I've caught and I usually remember each nature, but it's nearing midnight, so my memory's hazy. That's all to report for now. Hoping I get to finish all gyms in a week, and with one left to go I'm fairly confident.

Platinum: Been training my Pokemon, Ninetales has reached level 100. My Sandslash is level 87 and my Swellow is level 64. I'm now going to train my Skitty until she reaches level 46, then I will evolve her into Delcatty. Also, I caught a shiny male Combee today, but I didn't bother giving it a nickname since I already have a shiny male Combee, so I'll probably trade the second one away. It is level 14 and has a sassy nature in case you're wondering.

Having finished EV training my Froslass a couple days ago, I then worked on leveling and EV training my Shroomish to get Spore and then evolve it to Breloom. Just finished that, and now all that's left is EV training my Heatran before hitting the Battle Tower and finding out just how good this team can do.

Oh, and I'm using Rayquaza as my Fly/Surf HM slave :p

Platinum After Journey Post-1 Year Anniversary

It' only been about a week, but it feels weird posting here...

Anyways, today marks the 1 year anniversary of when Pokemon Platinum was released in the US. That means it's also been a year since I started my journey. To commemorate this, I traveled to Solaceon Town and went into the Day-Care. I did some RNG stuff to get me an egg with a Impish nature and IV stuff. The Pokemon I put in the Day-Care was my starter Torterra. The egg of my starter will go into SoulSilver and will be EV trained. Turtwig will also be given a nickname.

So that's what I did to celebrate a whole year of playing Platinum and not starting over. I wonder if you guys will celebrate in some way. Well, good luck to all of you people playing!

Well lately I've been obsessed with the Battle Tower and Battle Frontier in Pokemon Diamond and Platinum respectively so I've been creating and testing teams to try for a high streak. I also plan on chaining some shinies soon though I haven't decided on which one I want to go after, most likely it's going to be one of the swarm pokemon. Happy 1 year anniversary Pokemon Platinum:)

Went into the Battle Tower with Froslass, Breloom, and Heatran, and did pretty damn well for the first 20 battles. And then, unexpectedly, Palmer comes out with his Milotic. Well, my special attacker Froslass is useless against that, even with Thunderbolt. I sent out Breloom, but Milotic used Hypnosis before I could use Spore, and then proceeded to wipe the floor with my whole team.

A bit of an eye opener. I may need to replace Froslass or Heatran with a physical/mixed attacker, or maybe get a wall of my own.

This may come as a shock to you, but...

I am no longer playing Pearl.

That doesn't mean that all those shinies, legends, starters and just plain old Pokemon are being left behind or deleted. Oh no.

Some people keep playing the game and get id of the Pokemon. I'm doing the opposite.

Today is March 26th, a day of new beginning.

And from this afternoon on, most of my Pokemon will be withme, just somewhere else. And they'll have a new companion. A little green dinosaur called Molly, but in time she won't be so little.

Guys and girls, get ready for Pokemon SoulSilver.

The other day in Diamond, Magnemite was swarming in Fuego Ironworks. I saw this as an opportunity to train a Bagon I had migrated from Sapphire--he evolved to Shelgon after many trips to the rest house on Route 205.

After the evolution, I decided to abuse my little Illumise. Looking for a Metal Coat, I had her use Covet on every Magnemite that appeared, even after she got paralyzed and low on health. Of course, I did show a little sympathy. I said to her, "Okay, if you encounter five Pokemon in a row that aren't Magnemites, or if you run out of PP or faint, I'll let you call it a night." For the longest time the poor paralyzed Illumise with only a sliver of HP left used Covet on the Magnemites, until Arceus finally had mercy on her by showing her five non-Magnemites in a row.
Me: Gastrodon, Shinx, Luxio, Shinx, Floatzel... fine. You got it off easy this time.

I know, it was an awful thing to do... I bet she'll refuse to make babies with my Volbeat after this.
