I've got Polt the Gengar, Spectre the Dusknoir, Beagle the Smeargle, Blasturtle the Blastoise, Irony the Matagross, and Ptaero the Aerodactyl. Level 100, EV trained, used in Wi-Fi matches.

I feel so stupid. I got sidetracked with Chocobo Fables, that I put Pokemon down for the past two weeks. I'm done with CF, so back to pokemon and I love my friends!

I got a lovely little Typlosion and Yanmega...I'm heading to Team Galatic Buliding now. I still don't have the stupid 8th badge yet. -.- I'm so slow, but EV training IS slow.


...and FINALLy on X/D I caught that jerk of a Lugia....took over 28 ultra balls and I was so mad I couldn't catch it I passed my controller around to my friends and we all played "Catch the Lugia...win nothing!" game. It was sad, a guy who doesn't even play Pokemon much got it the Lugia...WITH A POKEBALL! It was the last Pokeball and I had with 20 Ultraballs still in stock. I went a snagged Zapdos and moltres witht hem...I killed Articuno on accident.

I'm now the only person at my college with a legal Lugia. Everyone else has a hacked lv 100 one. Mine's just lv 50. *shrugs*

Good job, Armi.

Anyways, I have 5/6 of my lineup wi-fi ready. I've been lazy with the last one since it's been a pain getting the right nature.

Hey, Smoothie, what is your Wi-fi team, if you mind saying?

I wish my team could do serious battling, but I have 4 UU pokemon on my team and now that Weavile is OU...I finally have an OU pokemon on my team, that's a first. (bloody run-on sentance)
Wait, I have no clue if Typlosion is OU. How it's treated on GameFAQ, it's UU...weird to hear a starter at that status...oh wait, Bayleaf's evo is the royal suck of starters.

Oh yeah, anyone mind saying which is better: Stealth Rocks or Toxic Spikes?
I have no clue what gets rid of the rocks(I think rapid spin), but I know a poison type gets rid of Toxic Spikes. I also know you can only layer rocks once, while you can layer toxic spikes twice to cause toxic.

I plan to add one or the other to my team. Cursing the fact if I didn't evolve my Nidoking, I could have Toxic Spikes now.

It's pretty lame

Empoleon (which I haven't breeded yet)
Umbreon (ftw!)
Tyranitar
Staraptor
Luxray
Charizard

I'd go for toxic spikes, poison is just so much fun.

I want Pearl, but I have to talk my dad into it, he's very anti-pokemon

Diamond - Water
Buying Smoothies team in Shinys!

Edit:Added the D to Diamond

I'd actually rate Meganium over Typhlosion, really, it got a massive boost in Aromatherapy to go with its nice defenses. Typhlosion gets walled too badly by that annoying blemish on the world of Pokemon known as Blissey.

Why not go with both Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes? Heck, toss the original Spikes into the mix while you're at it. Forms the basis of one of my alternative Wi-Fi teams that I'm 4/6 through, heh. My near-perfect IV Dusknoir holds it together by blocking Rapid Spin. =3 Glad to see my decision to breed Duskulls justified somewhat. Having to pick one though, would see me go for Stealth Rock. Toxic Spikes is too easily gotten rid of, losing two layers through a simple Gengar switch-in is harsh. And Nidoking has far better things to do than Toxic Spikes.

Automatically gets my vote of approval!

On a more serious note though, Umbreon got badly shafted in DP. (No! My precious, what have they done to you?!) Taunt, which shuts it down entirely, got extended to 2-4 turns, U-Turn got introduced, and overall emphasis on offense reducing Umbreon's ability to stall. Not that I'm not going to use it, of course, I'll have at least one team built to accomodate it.

To nitpick, only Empoleon resists Sandstorm, Umbreon in particular very fond of its leftovers, and Luxray isn't very useful.

I'm on my fourth playthrough right now, and I finally succumbed to the temptation to Pal Park some of my Emerald pokes. I'm not done restarting though, (will keep going until I have enough Master Balls for every legendary, to save me some headache when I start SRing for good IVs, by then I'll also have enough of each TM to satisfy me) so I'll be trading everything over to my sister's Diamond soon.

Oh, and when Memento followed by a Belly Drummer swept each and every one of my Wi-fi opponents thus far, I begin to wonder if there's any other way for me to pick my fights outside of Serebii's Chatroom...

This is my first time ever IV/EV training, so I'm pretty bad at it. Right now I'm raising a Togekiss (which started out with 28+ EVs in Sp. Attack, Speed, Defense, and Sp. Defense) to be a general Special sweeper. I'm also going to train up a Staraptor because it looks like it has excellent Physical sweeper potential. Any other suggestions? I'll probably get a Rhyperior to beat Electric attacks.

Well, everybody could always use an Umbreon.

GUESS WHO'S BACK!

And anyway, I have Pearl. My competitive team is done. I have if anyone needs:
Charmander x 100 or something
Eevee x 60ish
Pichu x 20ish
Dratini x 20ish
Feebas x60ish
Caterpie x 20ish
Ditto x 30ish
