I have beat the Tower Tycoon. This was a close battle, but I won in the end. If it weren't for me sending out Hippowdon to activate Sand Stream, I would've lost. So I earned 20 Battle Points and spent them on a Power Bracer for my Dratini.

A suggested moveset would be helpful =).

You,you beat him?!? I got clobbered.I haven't played in a while and I new game alot,but I will probably play a lot lately so I can transfer to Platinum.I have an action replay,so that helps now and then,and i will get Shaymin easy .

I have no wi-fi,our security is the wrong kind,though i get it on the wii.I use guidebooks to find teams with strategic type advantages.

I have Pokemon Diamond, and currently, I am trying to complete the Sinnoh Pokedex by actually catching the Pokemon. So far, 113 caught. Eventually, I will complete the National Pokedex, IF I can access Wi-Fi. When I complete my Pokedex, then I will assemble my Wi-Fi Team.

Here is my prototype team:
Rotom[Elecrtric/Ghost]
Hold Item: Undetermined
Nature: Modest/Timid
-Discharge
-Shadow Ball
-Hidden Power(Fighting)
-Will-O-Wisp
Armaldo[Bug/Rock]
Hold Item: Life Orb
Nature: Adamant
-X-Scissor
-Stone Edge
-Earthquake
-Swords Dance
Skarmory[Steel/Flying]
Hold Item: Shed Shell
Nature: Impish
-Drill Peck
-Steel Wing
-Spikes
-Substitute
Roserade[Grass/Poison]
Hold Item: Focus Sash
Nature: Modest/Timid
-Leaf Storm
-Sludge Bomb
-Shadow Ball
-Hidden Power(Fire)
Milotic[Water]
Hold Item: Leftovers
Nature: Bold
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Mirror Coat
-Recover
Gallade[Psychic/Fighting]
Hold Item: Salac Berry
Nature: Adamant
-Psycho Cut
-Close Combat
-Night Slash
-Thunder Wave

Any suggestions?

Well,roserade is weak to psychic,so you may want to teach a bug move for countering,if it will learn any.Also,I believe milotic can learn Earthquake,and would outspeed most electric types,giving you only one weakness.

BTW,impressive team.one time I went fishing in the cave and the first thing i got was feebas,but after knowing about it for 5+ years.You are one heck of a trainer with that team.

Anyway, don't do that... Its not cool... -Dudebot5000-

Blade, how'd you miss the triple-post?

///EDIT: ... Triple post? What triple post? -- Blade

Milotic CAN'T learn Earthquake. Besides, it's as Special Sweeper, and Earthquake is Physical. Combined with the fact that Milotic has a Base Attack of 60, it would fit better on Gyrados.

Roserade's Shadow Ball is a Ghost Type attack, and Ghost is advantageous against Psychic Types, so it would be fine on Roserade.

*Has Preordered Plat.*

[Ddude The Insane]

I am going to miss thr movie on Cartoon Network cuz I am traveling. :-[

[lionytai]

how do you get mew in pokemon gameboy silver?

[lionytai]

then where to catch jiggly puff?

[B~T]

In D/P, Jigglypuff is found on the Trophy Garden after receiving the Nat. Dex. Talk to Mr. Backlot and wait until he mentions a Jigglypuff.

I do not own the old Pokemon Games, so I have no clue on how to find Jigglypuff.

[Blade]

*Looks on Serebii* Oh hey, he was right. xP

Jigglypuff: G/S: Routes 4/5, Crystal: Routes 5, 6, 7, 8, 34, 35. Rarity: Few.

[Blade]

What do you mean by left?

[Blade]

Man... That's brutal >_> And deleting the rules topics didn't exactly help the rule breaking problems I bet >_>

[Dudebot5000]

I agree. Rather childish.

*Changes discussion*

Just finished The Rise of Darkrai. Good movie. Main thing I wanted to mention was I just started watching Pokemon Movie 11: Giratina & the Sky’s Bouquet Shaymin. In Japanese. Language is no different for me, but the names struck me as interesting.

Ash = Satoshi
Dawn = Hikari
Brock = Takeshi

Piplup = Pochama

And that's all the ones I noticed in the first 17 minutes. Well, that and Shaymin acts like a spoiled brat. =P

But still, it's interesting.

^Link, BTW.

[0PureChaos0]

Actually it is Giratina and the Sky Warrior.
Anyway, did you guy's know that if you have Diamond or Pearl, you can get Shaymin from Toys R Us with mystery gift?
Event ends today.

EDIT: I don't know. Pokemon.com Said that it is Giratina And the Sky Warrior...
Yea, But did you know that Zero was actually in another pokemon movie looong before this one? (i think)

[Dudebot5000]

Did you even bother to click the link? =P

Origin Form Giratina is pure WIN. There are references to TRoD, and there's two legendaries that make guest appearances. =O

[Blade]

Sky Bouquet's Shaymin is the translated Japanese title

*Should watch later* And the Japanese names of the Pokemon are pretty good, and has anyone noticed that Dawn's name is the same as one of the evo stones in the D/P/P series? =P

[Dudebot5000]

Dunno 'bout that. But I found it rather ironic that the American pokemon people gave Dawn an appropriate name. =P

Dawn = Hikari
Hikari = Light
Dawn = Light

Ironic, don't you think?

[Blade]

Yeah, or just got lucky

[Dudebot5000]

That's more likely. =P

[Blade]

Johto Starters... YES. =D

And if you can't get it for me, I don't really mind that much I guess...

Erureido -- Gallade

=P

[B~T]

Johto Starters... YES. =D

And if you can't get it for me, I don't really mind that much I guess...

Erureido -- Gallade

=P

Naetoru - Turtwig
Mukubird - Staravia
Mukuhawk? - Staraptor

Gallade is one of my favorite Pokemon, even though it isn't OU. If I can get a good Gallade, I'll name it after the Blade in this forum, because Gallade has "blades" and Neo's nickname is Blade.
