rofl vulpix sucks...why is it so cute

[Maguspk]

Any experienced person mind listing common items used in battling and what they do for us new-gen-noobs?

Like the scarfs and stuff

c'mon magus! help us noobs outtttt

I thought someone mentioned Smogon already. That site is great, where I get a majority of my info from.

Also gamefaqs. But filter your info from gamefaqs through Smogon and if they conflict, let Smogon take priority.

The game just came to NA so not everything has been thoroughly tested yet. A majority of the items suck though, like "boost the power of" items usually suck. Choice items and such and items that are potentially useful have been tested on Smogon, so just check there.

This is good too but Serebii has a tendency of being innaccurate quite often, take anything sounding a bit strange with a grain of salt.

Anyone have any spare lucky eggs? I'm 0/15 now :(

I'll give the Pokerus to someone who has one if they want

My updated trainer card shows what kind of team I got in mind. It feels...unbalanced. Any tips, fellas?

3 of them are weak to Ice. Can't decide much without seeing move sets, but unless you have a fire and a fighting move somewhere in there, SkarmBliss will hurt you.

true, but most players don't tend to use Ice based moves, possible exceptions to Avalanche

Uh, Boltbeam is the most common moveset in the game. I've gotten owned by a Boltbeam Blissey before. The horror.

[AzazaelFenrir]

is it worth holding Chimchar from evolving to get Flamethrower?

[raginbull]

I evolved Chimchar as soon as it was able to and have not regretted it.

[Syn]

is it worth holding Chimchar from evolving to get Flamethrower?

Depends on whether you wanna make him a physical or special sweeper. Most go with physical.

Finally found out my friend code.

Once you teach one of your Pokemans a HM is it ever possible to erase it? And does the Egg you get from the NPC (think it turns into a Blissey) have to be in the #1 spot on ur team for the steps to count towards its hatching. I've had it in my team for like 4 days and the bastard hasn't hatched.

Move Deleter lets you remove HMs. They are in Canalave City, in the house north of the Poke Mart.

That egg becomes Happiny, doesn't need to be in front of party, but you need to walk/ride your bike for a little over 10k steps for it to hatch.

[Quixon]

Thank god I can remove HM. I taught Chimchar Cut b/c I left my HM whore in storage by accident lol.


10k Steps..........ugh, at least I should be there shortly.

[Marcicus]

I must admit Saturday was a good day.

Caught Mespirit.
Beat the Elite Four with no pokemon above lv52 (fkin Cynthia was a bitch, that dragon almost owned me...Empoleon missed blizzard ; ; but! it used brick break then I finished it with blizzard...then a fucking Milotic. -_- Got lucky with para and confuse on Luxray 4tw!)

Caught Azelf in a Great ball

Caught Uxie in a Poke Ball

Only thing bad about this weekend was fucking Giratina.....god damn that thing is a fucking bitch to capture. ><!

[Scythiroth]

10k Steps..........ugh, at least I should be there shortly.

Doesn't take too long with the bike on fast mode riding back and forth in a big straight line.

I've heard certain fire pokemon with Magma Armor or Flame Body can cut that amount of time to hatch an egg in half.

[Marcicus]

Dude Scyth, we are so battling when my ISP gets back up.
