Pokémon General Thread

Fun Fact: The genies/kami/whatever trio start off with 90 happiness when caught, higher than most Pokemon.

I wonder why they do.

You chased them through hell and high water just to catch them. They know you clearly love them a lot.

x4 i've actually done this before, and I think, according to it, Mewtwo was my favorite pokemon.

Sounds pretty close to accurate.

Forgot to mention, but I ended up with Honchkrow. I like the design.

I wouldn't say this is my most concrete list of favorite Pokemon, but it'd be pretty close.◊

Little late, but my Black 2 team was Lucario, Magnezone, Genesect, Serperior, Flygon, and Golduck, I replaced Lucario, Serperior, and Golduck with Cobalion, Virizion and Terrakion for the Elite Four, though.

Sorry to bother, but http://www.dragonflycave.com/favorite.html is a slightly faster (20 Pokemon at a time) version of the favorites thing.

My favorites: Azumaill, Azelf, then a 4-way tie between Chespin, Suicune, Swampert and Keldeo. Also I previously made a favorites of each type table here.

I forgot exactly what I ran White 1 with, I just remember Emboar, Darmanitan and a ton of filler. And that I used Zekrom against N and Ghetsis.

I tried to play regular BW 2 but it wasn't able to keep my interest since BW was still fresh in my mind and it felt way too much like more of the same.

I played Blaze Black 2 on the other hand not that long ago, and that was really fun. I had a Porygon 2, Gengar, Hydreigon, Samurott (who's Water/Fighting), Mamoswine, and Charizard.

Samurott, Darmanitan, Sigilyph, Krookodile, Galvantula and Archeops for White.

Lucario, Arcanine, Magnezone, Crobat, Haxorus and Jellicent for White 2.

That Crobat with Fly and Toxic won me a league 10 levels below. That Jellicent should had been a Starmie.

My top 36 favorite Pokémon (Not including legendaries)◊

My White 2 team was Emboar (also my first female starter), Leavanny, Lucario, N's Zoroark, Jolteon, and Crobat (first time i ever used a Crobat... out of 3 times).

I finished the game, but never completed the postgame because my preorder of Alpha Sapphire came in the mail.

I'm finding Super Mystery Dungeon surprisingly difficult. I just lost in the third freakin dungeon.

take not your wands and reviver seeds for granted

that way you have a slightly lower chance of dying

It only gets harder from here, my friend.

I found the pacing off. I quit playing after the difficulty spike in the Tree of Life, at which point I couldn't turn back to train in an easier dungeon

i dont remember struggling with any of the main game dungeons apart from poliwrath river^note or rather, struggling with any one dungeon more than the others. supers a bitch, though yeah the story pacing was out of whack

i dont know if my lack of problems with the games difficulty is due to me actually being good at it or if im just mentally downplaying it due to actually liking it. probably the latter

I think Super is harder early on than other Mystery Dungeon games because enemy levels climb much faster than usual, and you're locked into progressing the plot for much longer before you get to return to earlier dungeons for optional missions.

Raichu gains the honor of being the second Electric rodent to win the big prize.

I love Raichu. This and Alolan Raichu proves it's getting the love it deserves.

Also good to see no Smeargle in the Master finals. Screw that thing.

And people were saying that the teams all looked the same this VGC

They were before Worlds.

What were the Top 6 teams this year?

At the beginning and middle of the season, it was Kangaskhan, Xerneas, Smeargle, Groudon, Talonflame, Salamence.

Talonflame declined later on and got replaced by trick room users. Salamence either got separated or got replaced entirely.

It's funny that doubles is the official battle format but these games are so poorly optimized the game's slowed to a crawl during it.
