You guys are never going to guess what I found yesterday!

Well, if he said it, then it must be true.
C'mon, guys. You heard the man. No guessing!

Lol fine. I found my first shiny in several years, my female Jigglypuff "Orion".

Congrats.

I've found exactly one shiny in the past, and that was scripted. The red Gyrados.

This is my third shiny found. The first was a Tentacool back on Crystal that I was forced to kill because I had no Pokeballs, and the second was a Weedle on Fire Red that evolved into a nice shiny Beedrill. It may be a weaker Pokemon, but Im very happy.

Only other shiny I found besides the Gyarados was a shiny Ledyba during the bug catching contest on Silver. I caught him, and still didn't win. I was pissed.

Street, the Bug Catching Contest is rigged anyways.

Im going to evolve Orion into a Wigglypuff, and just make it into a support Pokemon. Itll have terrible attack stats, so that's really the only route I can take.

Seriously that bug catching contest is BS.

well I got the 3DS today at Gamestop, traded in my Lite to get a discount so it was a little cheaper lol

However, I can't access the internet on Pokemon because my family has a WPA address and not a WEP address so I can't make the trade, Street, for a little while longer, hopefully after next week

My friend Ryann and I have decided to restart our Soul Silver games. There is only one rule for how we will play. She and I will give each Pokemon that we catch a "Magikarp" themed name. For example, I will have FeraliKARP and she will have TyphloKARP.

It's really only for humor, but I can see this getting competitive really quickly.

oh please tell me you will post every name that you come up with on here, I can see myself getting a ton of laughs out of this lol

Karpe Diem should be one of them.

I will. The only Pokemon I have right now are FeraliKARP (Totodile) and a KARPKARP (HootHoot). Im hoping to get VictoryKARP (Bellsprout).

nice, laughed at all of those, wonder what you are going to name the legendaries lol

My personal favorite nicknames for HootHoots have been Hoot-Toot, Toot-Toot and Poot-Poot.

The only good HootHoot is a dead HootHoot. Just my thoughts anyway. Im only using it because I dont want to use a Pidgey this time.

I never liked using Pidgey.

I love Pidgey, but it's just that I ALWAYS use it. I want to change things up this time. HootHoot is actually better than I thought, too.

They get hypnosis, I believe. I used it for catching.

Indeed. Mine learned it a bit earlier. It'll be very useful for the time being, at least until it finally learns a flying move.

Peck at level 9.
Very useful poke'-site.
^Link. The colors are off at the moment.

Farfetch'd is always my utility Pokemon. False Swipe, Fly, Headbutt and Cut are a good move set for him/her.

I really like all the improvements they've made in this generation.
Boulders pushed with Strength stay pushed.
No forced save every time you go to do something.
Doctors in the wild.
A way to tell if a Roamer was in the area.
A bunch of other little things.
Pseudo-3D didn't really add much, though it did look nice.

I just wish you didn't have to force your critters to learn HMs. Wouldn't it be better to just have a teleportation device in each town rather than having to have a critter with Fly whether you want it or not? I mean, sure the HMs aren't strictly bad moves, but I'd rather have full control over my moveset.

I think my HootHoot is at Lv 8. Glad to see it will be able to attack bug Pokemon soon. That will make training it a lot easier.

And I like the new Gen as well. It's just more...accessable.

I like the improvements as well Monkey. The nurses and doctors really save you so much backtracking.
