I run into Misdreavus a lot, so that's one to fight off. Also I've been doing lots of random battles lately, and I love those.

For sure, I love the design...giant metal snakes are just too cool. Explosion has been nerfed in 5th gen so Toxic or Stone Edge are probably good bets. Toxic is because bulky waters love to come in on Steelix. Stone Edge could surprise Sunny Day sweepers like Volcarona. I think Gyro Ball is the best bet for a secondary attack due to its accuracy, STAB, and potentially high base power.

Steelix with Toxic is almost always a good idea. Stone Edge is okay, but I prefer Earthquake since it'll do more damage on Fighting or Fire that comes in on him.

Ahh, yeah I enjoy having a nicely bred version of as many Pokes as possible. It's hard to balance that and actually training and playing with them since there are so many things to breed these days. I want to spend some time leveling up and EV training here soon so I can make some more Battle Subway teams. I want to try my Tornadus out on a doubles Rain team. I had Latios, but Tornadus will probably work even better. Haven't really been on Showdown yet, I don't have internet at home right now.

Yeah. It's tough, but lately for me I get enough of a thrill just by breeding out new pokemon I hardly/haven't used and doing a run through with them. Tornadus is a baller pokemon. I like all of those runners.

Ahh...random battles are fun. When I get internet at home I'll try to find you on Showdown. I guess technically I could do it at work, but I don't know if that's the best idea, haha.

Earthquake is mandatory, haha. The other moves are up to a little interpretation.

That sounds cool. I have the problem of getting a lot of good mons on a game and then not wanting to restart it. Yeah, I can back up the mons, but it'd take ages to send them to my carts again...same thing with trading. I think Tornadus is going to do well, but I have to level him up to 79 to get Hammer Arm and Hurricane ;__;

Yeah find me! Although my teams are lacking. I need a good lead in Little Cup. I'm trying to decide if I should keep using Serperior or not. Coil is so rad though.

Haha true that.

Ah I see. Like right now with my two shinies in LeafGreen. I want an Emerald them transfer all my pokemon from Sapphire and LeafGreen to it. Catch'em all!

You have no idea how jealous I am right now.

I hate that fob album, but the thread name is hilarious.

That how we roll here!

Random battle sweep with Raticate. Baton passed him some Speed and some Attack boosts. What up?

[chipdip18]

I've decided that you could Baton Pass enough Speed and Attack/Special Attack to nearly any pokemon and they suddenly become the best.

yeah man, go watch one of those vids where they sweep with Magikarp...almost impossible to pull off against a good player but hilarious if it works! you could definitely do a sweet baton pass team to beat the in game trainers with. you could pick a cruddy poke to be the sweeper...maybe not magikarp but uhh...something bad

i haven't played in a while, I think my ds wifi capability is on the fritz...i have been getting nearly every error code imaginable trying to connect recently

also I listened to from under the cork tree a few months ago and I actually still enjoy it, I was surprised! I have gotten rid of a lot of pop punk but I guess that one is staying for now

Hahaha yeah I have seen some of those. It's just wild.

I haven't played anything but showdown in a long while either. I'm feeling the need to go back to Gen II though.

You know. I actually agree. I still have a place in my heart (ears?) for Fall Out Boy. Although they were super disappointing live.

I am not sure if I'll ever get the new games, but I wonder if there is a Gen V poke that would be good to pass to on an in game BP team. Derpfish would be pretty entertaining haha.

Showdown is the online battling right? Gen II is always calling. I think I lost one of my Gen II carts to a dead battery, Silver iirc. RIP. All my pokes are on Pokemon Stadium 1/2 so hopefully those outlive the GBC cart batteries haha.

I lost interest after FUCT but I think both that one and TTTYG will survive my pop-punk purging haha. I still have too much, but I'm getting there.
