Had quite a long stream going today heres another summary in character cuz I feel like it, might not keep these up we'll see. Rather epic wall of text not dropping in a ton of screenshots since I streamed it.

Idra's Journal Day 2

Hey guys, I'm sitting in Goldenrod city and had quite a long day wow so many things happened. I caught a lot of new pokemon and I can't believe how far I've made it so quickly but I just didn't want to stop. I can't believe how many creepy old men are out on the road though I swear I had to send FBH after one of them definitely helps with your travel time when you're running away from creepy guys constantly...

Well I have several new pokemon now and damn catching them is a pain in the ass, FBH tends to just knock pokemon out instantly...

That weird tree professor dude gave me that egg back and it hatched into some weird baby pokemon at least I don't have to change its Egg... I named it BaBy something about some guy who likes that name and it suits him? I don't know I"m bad at naming pokemon so I take people's suggestions.

Anyways heres my new Pokemon

I'm quite bad at naming Pokemon so thankfully people were around to help me out and there are so many CREEPY trainers along the way... Some creepy passerby said something weird about my Pidgey being in the top percentage of pidgey or something weird like that... But then he said hes nearly perfect so Perfectman it was now he's a Pidgeotto though that's cool I guess.

I also ran into BeeSuit shortly afterwards and he really likes to use those Drills, really I taught him how to Rock Smash and Cut and he has WAY too much fun showing off how powerful he is... Seriously gotta keep away from him or he'll poke you pretty good though he's getting a little caught up and losing more and more battles due to overconfidence I think...

FireBatHero... don't get me started on FBH any time he wins a fight he blasts fire up into the air and celebrates for a minute... it really slows down your progress after a while I need to have words with him about celebrations...

I ran into a weird Rock pokemon, so he's named Rock that one was easy wasn't it? This is why I don't name my own pokemon.. but he kind of sucks so he's sitting in the box and I don't think that's changing anytime soon.

So I visited Violet city and the gym leader apparently refuses to fight you unless you climb a stupid fucking tower that a bunch of monks will send about five HUNDRED bellsprouts on you along the way up. I did meet Reach along the way... apparently someone told me when he evolves he likes to grab things so I guess that makes sense, and then said something about Natures... and I should make sure to get a Timid or a Modest one and I finally got a Modest one then... I don't know he was gone and I was back outside of the tower... stupid ghosts. Well I have reach now and he's Timid I guess that's alright. I'm really certain I dont want to set eyes on a Bellsprout after that so BackHo the Bellsprout I caught is sitting in the box keeping Rock company... BackHo is pretty but ugh BELLSPROUTS! FUCK BELLSPROUTS, might play with BackHo eventually but not so soon after fighting so many.

The first gym leader was kind of a joke, his Pidgeotto was his only good pokemon and FBH had a pretty epic battle with him.. twice. Again I swear I battled him then I was in front of him again and I had to beat him again I'm really confused it's like I'm not really in control of things. After that I stopped by some creepy ruins fell down a couple of holes and an overeager scientist gave me a notebook about some weird pokemon... whatever, again men giving gifts to little girls why is this considered normal?

The next gym likes bugs... like way too much. WAY too overenthusiastic about bugs, Bugsy? What kind of a name is that, I didn't even want to stay in that icky place longer than I had to, spiderwebs everywhere... So FBH burned the entire place down, well... not literally but I kind of wish he did. Of course Team Rocket is back took them long enough huh? But they all seem to only have Rattata... Is there a wall nearby? I need to bang my head against it a few times. So now I get to deal with trainers challenging me randomly to easy battles with multiple Caterpie, Pedos everywhere and now Team Rocket too?

I ran into Ethan again something about a Daycare center... at least he didnt give me any balls this time, but insisted on getting my number so he can call me. That was a bit awkward especially after he insisted it's because we're trainers and NO other reason. Yeah you were way too eager to give me those balls back at NewBark... not fooling anyone but again at least he's my age unlike all the creepy old men. But like I said here I am in GoldenRod city and I found the most adorable Pokemon and after my epic failure on naming Rock I need some help... some mean old guy in a Casino had him in a case as a prize and I had to get him out...

That game he made me play with him... just to win coins I think he just wanted an excuse to stare at me... The game was pretty easy and I didn't even have to pay anything to play just spend time. Again grown men way too interested in young girls, but I managed to get the cutey out of the box and he seems very glad of it. Theres a guy in town who will let me rename my pokemon and this guy sucks at naming, sadly so do I, so I'm sitting here playing with this Cutey while I try and figure out a name... I guess I'll call it a day. Dratini doesn't want to go back into his ball and after being trapped in that case for so long I don't blame it.

[image loading]
Isn't he cute? Hes very modest which again I'm told is a good thing but I didn't go out of my way to get that just wanted to get one of them out of there.

So I guess I'll go to sleep now I think my legs are going to fall off, way too much running from creepy old men can't believe I beat two gyms in one day. Theres something seriously wrong with the timeline on that...

Yeah I also bought thunderbolt, ice beam and flamethrower just because I dont like flamewheel since FBH is modest and thats a physical attack so I figured I'd run around with a level 20 quilava that knows flamethrower for lols

Yeah I know that pain. I trained a growlithe from lv 14 to lv 48. He couldn't beat ANYTHING himself before lv 30-something (until he got flamethrower himself >_>) + he had horrible speed, health and defence. He only started to gain +4 speed every level after 35 or so. Thank God he now has flamethrower and heat blitz to rape other pokes with.
Could you maybe give me some tips on how to win that minesweeper game for coins? The pokes are prolly useless to me but you can never go wrong with TMs.
I usually just go farm the 1337-four with coin amulet around my Feraligatr's neck when I'm short on money for TMs.

Anyway I've got a question for every1: Which should I get? Raichu (won thunderstone @ BCC) or evolve my flaaffy into ampharos? Or maybe Electrobuzz? Can any1 also recommend me some grass/leaf type pokemon that have decent stats/are useful? That's currently my weakspot =|

I would get a Raichu after Pikachu learned thunderbolt, idr when it learns thunder, but it has one of the better speeds and spec attacks. Although, I love glass cannons that specialize in spec attacks and have faster speeds, also a good asthetic look.

If you can evolve Electabuzz to Electivire, it's drastically better than both Raichu and Ampharos (iirc Raichu was only good in Gen1 because Pikachu could learn surf from some special event).

Sceptile is good. Roserade is good. Celebi is good. Ludicolo is ok. Shiftry is ok. Executtor is ok. Abomasnow is ok. Leafeon is ok. Tangrowth is ok. Shaymin is pretty good.

It's always hard to find a really good Grass Pokemon, because they have such limited movepools... Sceptile, Roserade, Shiftry, and Tangrowth are probably the best Grass Pokemon you can go for, but keep in mind that Roserade has a slightly limited movepool. Leafeon has a WAY limited movepool, Exeggutor is limited with his really bad speed and it's multiple weaknesses, and same thing for Abomasnow with a faster speed.
I don't think getting ubers is exactly a good choice to put in a party...

In my opinion, Tangrowth is the choice for Grass Pokemon to use to get through the storyline. It has good Physical and Special base stats, with very good Defense stats for a Grass-type, but has rather low Speed and Special Defense, but it has a really good diverse movepool.

If you want to be awesome like me, you can go with a Miror B. team in the competitive scene and use 5 Ludicolos plus a Kyogre :D

You have to raise it to lvl45 as a shroomish and give it a poison orb to make it competitive. But it works well as just a fighting grass type. It just won't have spore if you're playing for fun.

I've always like parasect for spore. You can buff him while your opponents are asleep. Most grass types have terrible typing and are weak to too many things so I've never liked the rest very much and pretty much just kept them off my teams. But it doesn't really matter what you do if you're not playing competitive I guess.

Not many people like grass types so Swampert is used a lot as a lead.

not really, meganium (the final grass evo) is the weakest of the three starters in Johto, and is only considered mediocre at best. but if stats don't matter and you just want to play, I always pick the grass type when i am not going a certain team, because no one ever picks it. If you want to play somewhat competitively, this is a great place to start. Ive been using it for a few months now.

Meh, yeah decent Grass type are very hard to find, that's why I asked :p I'm currently on the fence between Sceptile Tangrowth and not getting a grass type at all. They seem so weak anyway =/

On the matter of electric pokemon I decided to get a Jolteon (awesome speed + awesome sp. attack). I played that accursed voltorb flip game for hours and finally got 6666c for an eevee in Caledon. Thunderbolt will be a bitch to find/get but if worst comes to worst I'll play till I get those 10000c needed for thunderbolt. I'm probably gonna give Jolt raindance + thunder so it will never miss anyway. I'm also debating if it's worth leveling eevee to 36 to get bite + baton pass.
I made a mistake with my previous eevee (that is now an Umbreon). I forgot to give it an everstone and it turned into an umbreon before getting baton pass.

I started playing Pokemon Red again It happened exactly like that picture except I found it in my Star Craft Battle Chest (the actual chest not SC itself, that would just be spooky) which brought me to this thread for I took it as a sign.
