I've got a friend who battles with me quite a bit. She destroyed my team throughout most of last year, but I've made a pretty good one now. I'll be getting White 2 as well...Oh dear.

Update: Get the Darkrai while it's hot. Event ends on June 10th.

Pokemon is awesome.....

Many would dispute this...but they are fools.
Very fun to play.

Have a favored critter, Rr? How long have you played?

I just fool around with my son.. games and cards. He is the expert in the house. But I like to have fun with him so he gets to kick his Dads butt once in a while.... Its great fun for us.

Stop using me as proof of being wrong.

\_(o.o)_/ not a fan.

Sorry, but you are proof that there are people who are wrong out there.

I need a fist shaking smiley other than one that looks like it is masterbating furiously...

I haven't been playing too much lately. Id like to hatch a shiny Trapinch soon, but we'll see.

That sounds like that is going to be fun

It always is.

Also, Victini is available over Wifi right now. Get it while you can.

uh huh, I'm busy working on my Gothitelle so I will not be pursuing any pokemon atm lol

Back to breeding my Trapinch. Curious as to when Apollo or Artemis will hatch. :'D

Anyone pick up pokemon conquest? I want opinions of friends and not sites before I invest in it.

Im probably going to get it at some point. It looks really damn fun. Im more interested in White 2, though.

Totally remembered to nab my birthday month Togetic. That'll be transferred along with everyone else to W2 as I try to complete THAT Pokedex. Gotta get that shine amulet!!!

Picked it up the other day. Ive gotta say, the game is VERY entertaining. Id recommend it.

Honestly I'm not sure if I'm gonna pick up Black and White 2 anymore. I mean yeah I'm interested to see what happens since it's the first real sequel, but I just haven't had any urge to play Pokemon in months.

Well considering how much content the new one is offering, I guess you'll be missing out.

I'll probably get it at some point, but I don't think I'll be going out to get it on launch day.

Is it *new* content though. That's the question.
I've just played through Sapphire myself, though not all the 'after the Elite Four' stuff. Working on it. So, it'll most likely be a while before I get any urge to play any more of the series again.
I know they're doing their usual thing with tweaking the existing system. I like how you get the option to use a repel when one runs out without having to go into the menu.
But the series could use a little shaking up. The fact that this is a continued story is good, but in what way will this be a sequel? What do we know about it so far?

New cities to explore/updated visuals for most.
Challenge mode for when you beat the game.
Ability to challenge old gym leaders/champions, such as Giovanni and Lance, in World Tournament.
Rewards for actually completing the Pokedex.
Improved Dream World.

Ruby/Sapphire had one of the weakest post-E4 play of the series. Silver/Gold/Crystal were by and large the best. White/Black had a decent one, so Im curious to see how B2/W2 will be.

My first venture into EV training has been going well. @Lv 50, my Metagross has 1 below the max attack for that level...at a whopping 204. If he ends at 403-404, I will be beyond satisfied.

I have pokemon conquest now and am borrowing one of my gf's DS's to play it on. It's really addicting.


If only it were as deep as a Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre, or Fire Emblem game it would be absolutely stunning. As it is, it's just really good except for frustrating battle winning conditions sometimes.

It'd be nice if it were deeper, sure, but considering the audience, I see why they made it this way. No need to alienate any of the fanbase.

As for the win conditions, where are you having trouble? Only battle that really gave me trouble was the last one.

The event-only Pokemon, Keldeo, is being released at Gamestop starting tomorrow. It ends on October 6th. I got mine today, but that was because they were releasing it slightly earlier. Get it while you can!
