Why the hell is your Voltorb called Juche?
>>33067461

>>33067461
can someone give me a quick rundown on that Metagross?
Why is Tododile so popular? It's the only Johto starter I dislike.
>>33067474
Norks
>>33067485
It's not really popular outside of /vp/. It's kind of average/low.
>>33067475

>>33067559
Bog-darn it!
Did that Metagross talk to any French leaders recently?
>>33067611
Dubs confirm, the Metagross spoke to Macaroni.
>>33067559
The call that saved Kalos
>>33067559
Include me in the screencap
>>33067559
Underrated post.
>>33067485
i dont care for its evolutions as much, but i just think it has a great design. it balances being cute with actually looking like a crocodile really well
My current team on Emerald. It's the first time I've tried a monotype run and it's a lot more fun than I expected, even though I have only 7 Poison-types to choose from to make a team.
My last silver team
>>33067812
It's still very viable for an entertaining playthrough, regardless of the limited options.
>>33067834
Definitely. The most hectic situation so far has been Tate and Liza. Double the Psychics, double the fun.
>>33067559
I just wanted the quick rundown, not the big enchilada
>>33067907
You do realize that the traits in which I've listed constitute a mere 1 billionth of all of Bogdanoff's notable traits?
I've been replaying each gen and this is what I have so far. I'm about to shit on Volkner in Platinum. I only used mons I hadn't used before with the exception of Feraligatr and Blastoise.
rate plz
>>33067820
Let me guess, your favorite clade of mammals is the ungulates
>>33067461
Great taste!
>>33067638
Someone needs to make a better version of this. My brother's favorite pokemon is Skarm and he's a national capitalist.
>>33068873

>>33067461
I'm doing a Dexnav (Hidden Ability) run in ORAS with mons that I feel would have fun hidden abilities to use in game. Right now, I have a Mightyena, Kecleon, Tropius, Ninetails and a Sandslash. Will probably replace the Sandslash with either a Xatu or a Glalie, and then when I catch Groudon, I'l hunt down a Adapability Skrelp. I also added some extra rules such as no items in battle.
>>33067461
Latest game I've played through was Black 1, team was:
Emboar
Excadrill
Reniculus(Replaced for Metagross)
Coffrigus
Stoutland(Replaced for Zekrom)
Carracosta
Before that I think was HG:
Typholision
Ampharos
Dragonite
Snorlax
Red Gyarados
Gen 2 Mono-Type run. I am about to re-challenge the Elite Four in my game with this team.
>>33067820
Could have done a Mono Normal team if not for 2 of the pokemon. Seems like a comfy team. I have never tried Stantler. How is it?
>>33067812
Nice. I am also doing a mono-Poison run in the gen 2 games. I rolled Poison before my gen and nearly went with Emerald before I decided to randomize the choice. Poison is a super fun type. Limited choices just means you get to try em all out, right?
>>33068019
Your Platinum team is damn near perfect. Floatzel and Froslass never really appealed to me but the rest were on my teams during various Sinnoh runs in the past.
Current team in Liquid Crystal. Have been only giving nicks to mons that I have standard go-tos for (the traded Onix is not one of those). Triggered my sperge at first but have been enjoying not having to come up with something I like for every one of my catches
>>33069764
>tfw no good fanart of seimitoad or vaniluxe
>>33069773
Not even fanart can redeem them though.
Crop them out.
>>33070028
no i unironically love them
Seismatoad had double D's.
Playing through Leaf Green rn. Just beat Giovanni. Trying to make nidorina learn crunch before I evolve her just because, otherwise I'd evolve her. Any Bay Area bros want to help me evolve haunter?
>>33069773
hows this?
>>33071176
too big of a stylistic departure
>>33067638
>no Skarnochet
>>33067638
I'm a chilefag and I think this edit is stupid.
>>33067638
>Skarmory used fly
>Skarmory used sky drop
>It's super effective
>The opposing Kommie-O fainted
>>33067461
>nicknaming your pokemon
Pleb
>>33071628
>He actually trains Pokémon
>>33071628
>naming your dog "dog"
>>33068019
Only using Pokémon you've never used before is a pretty cool choice, Anon. Keep it up!
>>33069764
Why Vanilluxe though? Isn't its movepool shallow and shit as fuck? What moves did you give it?
>>33071167
Since I have no idea where Bay Area is, no. But otherwise I would.
>>33071643
>Talking to your dog
>Not teaching your dog whistle-based commands
>Not calling your dog using a specific whistle
Plebs will always be plebs
>>33071664Oh sorry, its the location surrounding San Francisco, idk why I assumed such a generic name would be obvious. Theres probably lots of bay areas.
>>33071658
All Vanilluxe needs for in game is Ice Beam/Icicle Spear and Flash Cannon. It's also a Long Time user of Eviolite. It does also have decent support moves like acid armor and mirror coat as well. Fire Steel and Water types tend to be rare in the late game as well. It buttfucks every gym it goes into as Ice slams Clay and Skyla, Flash Cannon beats down Brycen, and lol Iris/Drayden.
>>33067461
Pic related is my most recent team, who reached the HOF in Fire Red. Fucking Aerodactyl died on the way tho, like every single flying type on my team from the beginning of the run.
Arcanine and Vaporeon carried the team, big damn heroes the both of them.
>>33069499
Indeed, limited choices aren't wholly bad since it means you can effectively have a team of 7 with a rotating spot. With that said, my Swalot has seriously fallen behind due to offering nothing but some bulk while having a lack of good moves outside of TMs (not using high-end ones like Giga Drain because I plan to clear the Battle Frontier on this save with an entirely new team), so it's been sat out for the Elite Four.
Flora Sky Main Team
>Empoleon
>Cuckturne
>Ampharos
>Linoone
>Staraptor
>Flareon
Linoone is only HM slave though. I wanna replace it with a psychic type or a dark type.
>>33071835
Is it worth it to play FireRed? I never played those games, or Emerald.
>>33072614
>Is it worth it to play FireRed?
only if you never played the originals. Emerald is worth it though. because if you go to the Pal Park you can import mons from Emerald into Platinum or HGSS.
>>33072622
I played Red>Silver>Ruby>Black>heartgold>XY>S&M
>>33072633
up to you then. you can play it if you care enough for the slight differences in FireRed as opposed to Red.
>>33067485
Because it's strong and cute!
>>33071402
Close enough
>>33067461
planned heartgold team.
currently only have a quilava and poliwag
>>33068970
>t. butthurt commiecuck
Platinum is my bae.
>>33071658
i never said it was good
i went into white with the intention of using pokemon id previously written off and decided that seismitoad and vanilluxe fit the bill. also i just really like vanillite and tympole, theyre cute
>>33073804
i always forget hitmontop exists but now i want to use one
Not at my PC this'll have to do.
Would replace Lopunny with Munchlaxif I could catch itor Purgleyif it wasn't Pearl exclusiveand would replace Yanmega with Beautifly if it was available.
>>33068019
I did that last year, so I stole your template, but I stopped at gen 3. Then this year I did gen 5. So gen 4, 6 & 7 are kind of old. I'll probably do gen 4 soon.
Anyway, love your gen 1, 6/6, Nidoking and Parasect are perfection. Gen 2 is cool, though I don't really like Noctowl that much. Gen 3 is okay. FRLG is almost as good as RBY. DPP is great too.
>>33067461
You have good taste OP
>>33067479
Good, love Heracross.
>>33067812
Poison types are always cool
>>33067820
I don't think I've ever used any of these pokémon except Sneasel, but it's really comfy, now I want to
>>33069499
Poison is still cool
>>33069703
I like it, except for Onix. I mean I like Onix too but he's too useless by himself and I don't like Steelix.
>>33069764
I think I trained most of these mons in my Gen 5 playthroughs, but I ended up boxing all of them save for Joltik. I really like them though.
>>33071167
You're a pretty cool guy
>>33071835
Great
>>33073804I always fail to get Hitmontop during my playthroughs
>>33074951
Good. Drifblim a best.
>>33075160
Why pikaclones?
I adore Drampa, Komala, Oranguru and Bewear. Not really a fan of the other two though.
Platinum is great.
And I like the bug/flying team but how did you win with that?
>>33075226
SM is: Decidueye, Bewear, Alolan Muk, Wishiwashi, Lycanroc and Vikavolt
>>33075226
im not actually using joltik it just happened to be in the best art of excavalier i could find. it is, however, one of my favorite gen 5 pokemon and ive used it a ton, which is why i didnt this time
>>33075226
It's the first game 6 have been available so I thought it'd be fun.
For a mono-Normal run they're the only Pokémon plus Tucannon and I used him a bit in my normal Sun run where I rotated about 20 Pokémon out until I decided on an E4 team.
You win the Bug/Flying by knowing what to switch in to revenge kill what just killed you. My Mothim had HP Dragon too so he was my Dragonslayer
Heartgold, trying to get the last Johto badge
Arcanine
Crobat
Starmie
Ampharos
Furret for HM duty
I've got one free spot, thinking about getting a Dragonite
Does your team develop throughout the game or do you plan it out ahead of time? I try to plan my team out ahead of time but my autism makes it difficult.
About to play through White 2 for the second time since it came out. Considering boxing my starter and just using 3 or 4 pokemon the whole time. I've never used a team of less than 6. In Sun I had 5 until Nebby which was about the least I've ever used.
Cinccino is the only one I have in mind for sure and I want the rest to be Pokemon I've never used. All gen 5. I don't know, I'll think of something.
>>33076000
checked
i usually plan my teams out ahead of time but the plan almost always falls apart quickly. ill find something i had forgot about and suddenly get the urge to use it and once one member of the team has been changed, the whole thing falls apart
>>33076000
for me I tend to have ideas of mon's I want to use, but then I realize the team in my head was crazy, I need a guy who can learn cut, and I end up rearranging things to fit.
Like in my head I know I need a water mon who can surf, I need a flying guy who can learn fly, etc., but other than that I just catch what seems cool that I come along, and sort of try to come along specific mons that pique my interest.
But yeah I try and not re-use bros from previous playthroughs or anything, just because I always feel like I had my fun with them already, and theres so many pokemon out there. If I come across a shiny on a normal playthrough of a game, I'll try and turn it into an ace, but that has only happened once. In sun I found a shiny poliwag, so poliwrath became my ace pokemon for my sun playthroguh.
Also sometimes I'm like "huh I want to play around with X ability" so I'll find a slowpoke with regenerator, or catch a pelipper to auto set rain or whatever.
But I don't really plan a whole team ahead of time.
So I guess half I go after certain pokemon (sometimes abandoning ideas I had because no one could learn X move (currently this is cut in leaf green, >>33071167 is me)), and half I come across something and I'm like "yeah okay, lets do this".
