Using the PKMN center more than potions, revives etc.

Shorts Boy- my hero!
I'm lazy and almost always use potions and revives unless i'm at the very beginning and whenever i first get to a new city I heal at their pokemon center.

Same thing w/ me. More over I always keep the pride try not to lose/make my main pokemons die during many battles before reaching to a certain town. I mean my pokemons can survive w/out potions n etc.
 
I buy moomoo milk and bottles of water. I tend to stock up and keep stocked but only use stuff if I have to to conseve money for getting other things like pokeballs and stuff.
 
I heal at Pokemon centers only if i'm in a city, nearby one, or desperately need one. Otherwise, I just use any items I have to keep my Pokemon alive till I get to one. I rarely buy items (Except when challenging the elite four) because I mostly just use ones picked up on the ground.

I normally use the PC as I am saving up for something like T-bolt, Vitamins etc. and I need the money for them, but I still abuse Moo Moo milk and Lava Cookies, naturally.
And I'm often overlevelled from training a new recruit :D so I only need PP most of the time. Or I'm evolving for the Dex so I need to use the PC anyway so I go there.

I think this will be base if your after for the time or for the collection of buying a pokemon, available in the shop. If your after for the time i think it would be ideal to bring potion, revive i don't think so. Because you can strategically play your pokemon, not letting them faint. But sometimes you can have a potion for free when you on a journey.

Some time ago in Diamond, I decided to use a good portion of my money and buy around 100 of each item(Yay amulet coin) and now I rarely need to go to the PC except for recovering PP.In Ruby which I've restarted a while ago, I'm saving up money for TM's so I'll just backtrack and go to a pokemon center and heal.
 
I am an EXTREMELY cheap person in-game. I never use potions/revives/ethers whatever unless I'm fighting the E4.

I dont know.
I always have items with me, but the pokemon center is quite useful when I´m not doing something important(EV training, elite four, catching legendaries)

I save up all my items for the Elite 4. I typically train around towns, so I don't see the point of using items. I also sell any healing items I don't use to raise my funds if needed.

Why would you use up items when theres a poke center near by which can recover all your team...

Maybe I use items sometimes to heal statues... But yeah... Lol

Thats a very good idea. You can just deposit & withdraw pokemon into/from a PC to heal them too so that also lessens the need for using items.

I use the Pokémon Center more than items. When I'm training Pokémon, I'll actually fly back to the nearest Pokémon Center to heal the Pokémon I'm training. After I'm done healing, I travel back to the spot where I was training. Regarding revives and potions: I don't carry any. I only buy some when I go on to face the Elite Four.
