LOL overkill. Weakness to water though :p. What if you get hydro'd while you take in sunlight? Though you'll prolly survive that, since he's a fatty.

Though 4x weakness to ground O_O. Earthquake?

Yeah Sceptile sounds a bit weak

Your Castform makes me wet myself; I'd recommend Blaziken for your Fire Pokemon probably, there are Torchics in the Altering Cave on Route..115 maybe? The one to the left of the Trick House.

I seriously recommend you get something a bit more reliable for your Ice needs; 50% of the Elite Four are weak against Ice :p (ok, made up number, but still)

Yeah you do, I went and found him to see what sort of shit I was in for; all of his shit is level 100 in Emerald 386, fuck.

The Battle Tower in Emerald is easy for me, I just play Open Level and kill everything with Gardevoir.

Fucking Diamond/Pearl is gay. So hard to find a good fire type Pokemon if you don't choose the fire-type starter.

Poll: Best Pokemon Games?
(Vote): Generation I : Red/Blue/Yellow
(Vote): Generation II : Gold/Silver/Crystal
(Vote): Generation III : Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
(Vote): Generation IV : Diamond/Pearl
(Vote): Other : Stadium, TCG, etc.

My vote goes towards Crystal; easily the best Pokemon game, both due to the influx of new features and its general kickassery.

I got a Ponyta early on I think. Put flamethrower on it = FTW

My 'Hall of Fame' team (if I remember correctly) was:
Luxray, Staraptor, Azelf, Rapidash, Empoleon, and Graveler.
Then I just made my dream team (with perfect EVs and IVs) with Pokesav

By the way, I loved the R/S/E generation. It was awesome. I especially liked the Red/Blue remakes FR and LG.
Diamond and Pearl had the huge "Physical/Special" attack revamp that confused me a lot.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

i have so many good memories with RBY playing it when i was a kid, but id have to say so far generation III is my favourite what with the abilities and natures and cool new moves and pokemon and such

the physical special thing used to be based on the type of the move (ie fire attacks are all special, pre gen 4)

now its each individual move has its own type, like flamethrower stays special but fire punch (which was special before diamond/pearl) is a physical move now because its a punch i guess.

anyone gonna get the new platinum game? i think itll be like the Emerald of the RSE series

BTW does anyone have a link for a DS emulator and pearl / diamond rom? all the ones ive tried so far have fucked up on me
