I caught that pokemon on liberty island after about 500 different attempts.

Yeah Victini was a real bastard to catch

Took me about 50 or so balls total $:-\$

I just use the serebii IV calculator after visiting the hidden power guy. Where's this EV/IV guy in BW?

It's on this page. I haven't run into the guy yet. But he does exist

What level did you/are you guys plan on evolving Elektrik into Elektross? His moveset seems to take a nosedive after 44 with Thunderbolt.

I actually like rotation battles.

Is it possible to get Pokemon from Gen I and II into Black/White?

skydivingninja · « **Reply #639 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:02:04 PM »

If they're on DPPt/HGSS then yes.

ZBomber · « **Reply #640 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:18:58 PM »

How do I get them to that?

I meant from the actual first and second generation, as in Pokemon I have on Red/Blue/Gold/Silver etc. Do I have to trade from Red to Gold to Ruby to Diamond to White, or is there an easier way?

skydivingninja · « **Reply #641 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:20:20 PM »

Um...not sure if you can transfer them to the GBA games (don't think you can) but you definitely can't transfer them from GB to DS.

ZBomber · « **Reply #642 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:29:32 PM »

Damn.

I'm worried about losing my Pokemon in those gens. My Ruby already lost its battery, so I lost all of those Pokemon. I did buy some kind of back up software for the first two gens, but it is pretty old now and I'm worried about that failing too.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #643 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:34:26 PM »

Wait, your copy of Ruby lost its battery? The cartridge had a battery? Explain?

ZBomber · « **Reply #644 on:** March 16, 2011, 04:38:06 PM »

Yeah, the old Gameboy/Adances games run off a battery for the memory. I guess the one in Ruby ran dry, so I can't save anymore. I know you can replace them, but I'm too lazy... and I think if you replace them you lose any save data you had on the old battery.

YtseBitsySpider · « **Reply #645 on:** March 16, 2011, 05:51:54 PM »

well, Im still on holiday and only one ds came with us, so we bought a copy of white and black and my son is playing one of them, he is on the fourth gym leader.

probably good that i have a bit of a delay, I finished the asian version of this game rather quickly...but he has all the neccessary traders from ranger that you need to unlock stuff....I think Zorark is the big one to unlock looking forward to that.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #646 on:** March 16, 2011, 06:04:04 PM »

Anyone around to help me evolve my Gurdurr? Just a quick trade back and forth. You can trade me something that will evolve as well if you need!

Yeah I can do it, I'll come on AIM in a sec.

orcus116 · « **Reply #648 on:** March 16, 2011, 06:47:28 PM »

Well that took forever to get a male Drilbur.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #649 on:** March 16, 2011, 07:35:37 PM »

Dammit Pokemon Black. All I want right now is to go up to a shaking grass patch, catch a panpour, have it be FEMALE, then make it have sex with this level 50 Liepard so it can have little nasty plot babies. Right now you're really not helping me out on the female bit. Is it really too much to ask for?

orcus116 · « **Reply #650 on:** March 16, 2011, 11:48:41 PM »

Anyone else completely love Audino for the exp goldmine when training?

Helllllls yeah!

Riceball · « **Reply #652 on:** March 17, 2011, 12:16:51 AM »

For the first time ever, I'm thinking about dumping my starter from my main team.

I've got a Servive atm (lvl 22), and I'm getting a bit concerned at its lack of firepower. It seems to be geared towards the whole Leech Seed/Mega Drain/Giga Drain path; which I've never really had a thing for. From what I remember, starters have always been offensively-oriented, so Snivy et al. is taking me by suprise.

Thoughts?

orcus116 · « **Reply #653 on:** March 17, 2011, 12:36:58 AM »

Same with me. I have plenty of other firepower in my party so I'm not terribly worried, I just won't throw him up front unless I really need to. Being an avid party builder I kinda like the challenge and thankfully mine has a nature that allows for more attack.

Currently up to the 6th gym rocking a party of:

Serperior - 36
Throh - 35
Simipour - 31
Excadrill - 31
Darumaka - 33
Tynamo - 30

I can't wait to get Darmanitan and Eelektross.

Riceball · « **Reply #654 on:** March 17, 2011, 01:58:16 AM »

Yeah I see the complementarity (economist word hehe) in that team, and I seem to be heading down a path of having a couple of defensive-oriented members. My party right now is (second badge):

Servine - 22
Herdier - 21 (Take Down oooooooooooooooooh yeah)
Munna - 21
Roggenrolla - 22

I'm gonna get Darumaka from Route 4 as my next addition.
In the long-term, I know I'm gonna need a water and a flying (flying I'll be looking at a duel type) and I want something a bit more left-field like an ice or dragon, so someone is gonna have to fall away.

orcus116 · « **Reply #655 on:** March 17, 2011, 02:12:30 AM »

I took Herdier out ASAP to fill in some other spots. I just don't like Normal that much no matter how much HP, Attack and moves they might have. I had a Roggenrolla as well, even made it to Boldore but once I saw the benefit of Excadrill I jettisoned it from my party. You'll find that Ground is much more useful than Rock very soon.

Riceball · « **Reply #656 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:54:23 AM »

Yeah my thinking is to go with Darumaka et al as a substitute for Herdier. IDK, I find it much more efficient to focus on 3-4 members until, say, midgame when it a) gets easier to raise lower levels fast and b) there more scope to experiment. I'm set on Munna et al, Roggenrolla et al and Darumaka et al; the rest will work itself out from there.

YtseBitsySpider · « **Reply #657 on:** March 17, 2011, 06:13:16 AM »

I think, i caught a pokemon early in Black that was Bellosom that had sleep powder and giga drain.....and I walked through game using it. It looked like a bellosom but the names were in japanese so hard to be sure. It levelled faster than anything else because it was always out and it learned soothing scent or something that cured all effects which was helpful. Im thinking I too will refrain from collecting my vicintini, this game was so easy to get through compared to HG.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #658 on:** March 17, 2011, 08:42:22 AM »

I dropped my starter from my party after getting the second badge. I almost never keep them in my team.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #659 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:54:20 AM »

I've actually never gone through a pokemon game without using the starter in the main team.

orcus116 · « **Reply #660 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:57:06 AM »

I always keep them until I beat the Champion but after that I usually make a better team.

Riceball · « **Reply #661 on:** March 17, 2011, 06:37:11 PM »

Yeah thats me too, but like I said above I'm having a hard time justifying it at the moment once I get to a situation where I need a fly-er and a surf-er.

Those who have finished: I've noticed that grass isn't really a "necessary" type in BW, is this true?

skydivingninja · « **Reply #662 on:** March 19, 2011, 01:02:13 PM »

Well, I've beaten the main story of Black, and now rather than exploring the rest of Unova, I'm training new pokemon for a cool endgame team. The plan right now is:

Excadrill
Galvantula
Carracosta
Hydreigon
Chandelure (from old team)
Sawk (from old team)

Man there are just so many cool pokemon I want to use...

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #663 on:** March 20, 2011, 09:09:08 AM »

I'm seriously considering picking up Black as well. Is it worth it?

Rina · « **Reply #664 on:** March 20, 2011, 09:33:25 AM »

I've got this for my team:

Liepard
Cinncino
Samurott
Chandelier
Traded from my other game: Vaporeon + Persian

I'm a beast.
