Johto champion battle is the single best composition in the entire franchise by a significant margin. Nothing even comes close to the absolute magnificence of this track.

Hoenn Frontier Brain theme is better
Don't tell me you were actually triggered.
>>33149936
even gen 7's champion theme was better
I'm a lazy scum with money and I want to hire someone or something like that to hack me pokemons for ORAS then trade them to me so I don't have to do breeding or training
1 USD for each hacked pokemon. Easy way to make money for someone who can do it
Literally do it yourself you fucking scum.

If you don't think James deserves his own spin off series for being one of the shows best (if not the best of all) character then you are a faggot who should commit sudoku right now.

TL:DR:
>Complete all Trainer Challenges to get 45 free packs (use Cheat Engine's speedhack to speed up AI games [http://www.cheatengine.org])
>Play through using Basic decks to unlock them for versus play.
>Farm Versus Mode theme ladder for Tokens and Tournament Tickets.
>Enter tournaments to get TRADABLE chests and packs.
>DON'T OPEN THEM.
>Trade them for the cards you actually want for a deck you want to build.
>Public trade is like the GTS, if you want proper results, put up your own offers.
What themedeck should I buy?
>Buy the Lunala one. Solgaleo upgrades into something cheap and decent ( >>32879775 ) but is worse on it's own.

To see what your PTCGO stuff is worth, look on the forums in the trading section. Trading companies overprice cards, aim lower. Keep pack value in mind when trading.

Is that was this game is? Just throwing really powerful cards out one after another? Is there any reason to use things that have multiple stages or ~100 HP? It seems like instead of through the trouble of evolving a Pokemon, I should just stack powerful single stages mons like Khangaskan or Hoopah or something.
what does a control deck in Pokemon look/play like compared to a control deck in Magic?
asking for a new player friend.
>>33149566
>Throwing powerful cards out one after another
Beatdown decks are very popular but I think after Burning Shadows it's really gonna change. There are alternative win conditions.
>Is there any reason to use things that have multiple stages or ~100 HP?
Multiple stage pokemon are great but you need acceleration like rare candies or forest of giant plants for grass types. Pokemon around 100hp are usually support/have nice effects. Garbodor is an example of a really good 120hp card
>>33149611
Here's my list. It's not top tier but it does really good. Basically you give up prizes early but set up board state via Meloetta to enable 1 hit KO with Gengar. You punish them for taking prizes by using Ace Trainer reducing them to 3 cards for most of the game until you are ready to start taking prizes with Gengar. Generally what happens is the opponent has plenty of EX/GX cards and I end up trading gengars 1 for 1 with the GXs winning me the game.

Most control decks abuse free abilities on pokemon/remove energy from opponent's pokemon.
I recommend looking at Milotic/Porygon Z, Sylveon, Vileplume/Sableye and anything with Bunnelby

do I seriously need to bother with IVs if I want to ever beat any of the battle facilities in the games?
I just want to beat the battle tower/maison/tree master whatever, get that sweet trainer card upgrade and move on
but christ I can never even reach the guy even with EV trained mons I got straight out of a smogon guide
am I just unlucky or are perfect IVs mandatory?
It's not essentiall for the battle facilities. It helps though.
Non-detrimental natures and EVs are pretty essential though.
>>33148977
That image is retarded, just use a Pelipper instead of a Politoad and click U-Turn
>>33148986
ok, guess I'll just have to keep trying then
Time out.
Why can't I find a download for this rom?
Please help.
I own this game physically I just want to play on my pc at 1.5 times speed. This game used to be on multiple websites but coolrom and EmuParadise both have it removed.
>>33148968
Emuparidise lost all of their Pokémon stuff except Hey You! Pikachu! I'd download it on Freeroms if it's not back on Emuparidise. Just download it on mobile to avoid junkware and you should be fine.
>>33148987
Like, maybe im messing up? FreeRoms. com not even working. I can't find my second favorite Pokemon game online is it against the rules to link it?
2018 - Pokemon go gen 3
Pokemon ruby and sapphire
Gen 8
2019 - Pokemon go - Generation 4
Diamond and pearl remakes

Lemme translate
>2018- Pokémon go gets gen 3 mons and gen 8 comes out
>2019- go gets gen 4 mons and diaper remakes come out

I know October is still quite far from now, but this pic is too cute to just pass on.
How would you feel if they let you customize the appearance and entry animation of pokeballs?
Good
>>33147095
didn't we used to have that with pokeball seals in DP/Pt/HGSS?
>>33147095
Good, I would use crystal pokeballs like the ones that appear on the entei unown movie & they will have a sparkling animation just like this one not green, obviously
Pokemon ruined my life and turned me into a dysphoric furfag so honestly it can just go fuck itself

ToTT: How long do you think it'll take people to break the new Survival Mode?
>>33143151
>that filename
except GS refused to ever repeat bee, machamp or the flashmob mons so you never had the chance to complete that shit.
>>33143151
>How long do you think it'll take people to break the new Survival Mode?
Is it even worth breaking?
>>33143178
And GS decides to re-release the Water Flash Mob mons right after the Survival Mode change too just to spite us
>>33143179
Probably no if you somehow beat it the first time again, but I'm sure it'll be taken as a challenge
