Currently pirating the shit out of it. Only played for 3 hours though. Fuck yeah Desmume, you are a god who can connect to my DS and play over the internets or emulator to emulator with hamachi. Shit feels good.
Seriously though, do you guys enjoy this rehash of Gold & Silver. And if so, what do you like about it?
Oh, and post battle team + levels + progress.
3 hours in + big breaks whilst playing for food and other shit such as internet.

Meganium - 65
Gengar - 62
Ampharos - 64
Ho-Oh - 61
Snorlax - 61
Snorlax kinda sucks a bit in this game. I don't know what they did. But I'm considering putting him aside and maybe replacing it with Lapras.
Going off memory here...

I'm glad someone else likes having an Ampharos in their party. Thunder Punch ftw.
Seriously though get an Eevee and evolve it into something or go ahead and catch Lugia if Snorlax sucks that bad. I'm not sure when the Legendary Dogs open up to be caught, but try catch one of them instead if you can right now.

Yup. The second generation is my favourite, and I always start with Chikorita, then catch Gastly in Sprout Tower, then catch Mareep after the first badge. And basically by then, I already have half my team. I don't really like having an Eevee evolution on my team for some reason. And I have Lugia, but I already have Ho-Oh on my team and I don't want to have another legendary because they have obvious strength and I want to mix it up a little.
But Jesus, I'm okay with taking on Red a few times but I have a hard time running through the Pokemon League without having a shitload of full restores and revives. psyduck;
And Snorlax doesn't help me worth a shit. >.<

EVERYONE has ampharos on their team in HG/SS, it's pretty OU as far as I have seen
90 hours clocked in, my team for taking down Clair:
Dewgong
Cloister
Jynx
Ampharos
I know, I have 90 hours clocked in and only 7 gym leaders beaten, I'm doing other things like battling and pokeathloning Not to mention taking the time to EV train takes hours in and of itself, esspecially considering I have been training 3+ pokemon from scratch via breeding for each gym leader since I started the game. I am going full OCD on this one.
Also, i ran into Entei and used stun spore, then when I saw him again he was still paralyzed. I didn't notice that the roamers kept their damaged status, that's cool.

Several times, I've had Entei run away from me while asleep madood;
Then I later found it walking on water while still asleep doodhuh;
My team, as of just finishing the Elite Four for the first time in my English game:
44 Typhlosion
46 Ho-oh
42 Ampharos
44 Golduck
51 Electivire (Mystery Gift from Pokemon Battle Revolution, used scarcely)
98 Gallade (total non-battler used to catch wilds with False Swipe etc.; to save frustration against legendaries)
Though Lance's Dragonite should've been a huge issue for me with this team and without decent TMs, I wimped out and used Electivire's Ice Punch

Going to battle the E4 today, god damn, Clair's Kingdra demolished my team lol.
And Lugia was caught with only 5 ultraball attempts surprisingly. His sprite for following is HUGE I was sad when he couldn't be visible inside of buildings, would have been cool.
mY e4 tEAM:
Amphoros
Dewgong
Magmar
Mamoswine
Lugia
Arbok
I need to replace Mamoswine with a better psychic counter, sadly I evolved my one Eevee into Espeon so that's no good. Thinking of breeding Espeon to use another Eevee for an Umbreon as a Psychic counter and give it my Dark Pulse TM.
Oh and can I capture Ho-Oh in SS? I heard you could.

This happened to me with Lugia, my first attempt, I only had 7 ultraballs on me and used Amphoros to weaken it to like 3 HP, it was paralyzed due to discharge's second ability and I wasted all seven ultra balls. Second attempt, he had more health, like 25, not paralyzed and after tossing like 5 ultra balls it was captured for some reason.
I almost used my Master Ball, but I am using that on Ho-Oh as a last resort. I never used my master ball in Pearl, not sure if I'll want to use this one either.

In Kanto can you do the gyms in any order (You do have all the HMs at this point) or are you restricted to a specific order?
Can you still catch Mewtwo in cerulean cave?

Any order that you wish, sir. I still haven't been to Pewter City where Brock is, but I beat Misty. I am also able to fight Lt. Surge, Sabrina (whatever the Psychics name is) and Erika though.
I just Google'd and they said he is still there and level 70. Multiple sites said this so I would say yes.

Mewtwo was never in the original Gold/Silver/Crystal. You had to trade for him as far as I'm aware... If it's true though I'm really surprised.
Also, I'm in Kanto now, I did the section up to Bill's house above Cerulean, haven't done anything else yet really. Surge is strong in comparison to my pokemon (He has level 50's, my team is Level 45, I struggled to beat Lance.) so I'm going to grind before I even think of challenging him as his Raichu raped my Ho-Oh in one Thunder Bolt. :(
I fucking love the Kanto trainer battle music after hearing the Johto one for so long now. Such a burst of fresh improv.

Erika Gym Leader Battle. Wow, entirly underleveled for it but still won.
Lvl 56 Victereebell and Lvl 56 Bellossom? What the fuck? akudood;
Typhlosion took take of them pretty easily though, even though he's only level 46.
(http://i40.tinypic.com/ie09as.gif)
Does this shit actually happen? (The animation, not the battle.) or is it just fan art?
also the Red battle, in my opinion, is by far the most brilliant idea in any pokemon game. It's the main reason I prefer Gold/Silver over any other Pokemon game.

Yeah, in G/S/C the cave was collapsed, but so far in Gen IV there has not been a legit way to get Mewtwo as far as I know, so this would be the only way to do it.
In kanto are all the gym leaders, trainers, and wild pokemon scaled in the 40s? So it isn't like the beginning of Johto, it's a continuation so they are all scaled up? So Brock won't have like a levl 10 onix in R/B/Y?

Geodude, Onix, Kabutops, the other fossil pokemon and uh... something else, I think.
g2g to work, be back later, had a shitty experiance vs blue and was mad, will write about it later.
I made it to Olivine with no one over level 23. is this bad?
My team is:
Scyther
Onix (traded a bellsprout for it. helped a whooole lot)
Croconaw
Togetic
Flaafy
Magby
I think now everyone is about level 23, except Croconaw which is 22 and Magby/Onix which are level 21.

fuck year I beat Erika and Jasmine today
I just got HG today. I chose tododile as my starter :)
Too bad I haven beat Diamond yet. Oh well.
A bit late to note these things, but for Kanto:
Wilds are all at about the same level as they are in Firered/Leafgreen, so they're much lower than your pokemon.
Trainers all have higher-leveled pokemon, so you can actually get experience off them. Some of these Pokemon are from Hoenn or Sinnoh.
Most of the Kanto gym leaders have pokemon at slightly higher levels than your pokemon likely are, but they're not much trouble
Viridian Forest and Cerulean Cave with Mewtwo are back, but like G/S Pokemon Mansion, Pokemon Tower, Silph Co, and Celadon Underground are all inaccessible or gone and Mt. Moon is extremely tiny.

Yes Spinarak is a HG exclusive. I might trade you mine for something if you want.
Dragonair is lvl 51 now. GOD DAMN ONLY 4 MORE LEVELS. THIS IS TAKING FOREVER
I beat the Elite 4 twice today for craps and giggles
So my party currently consists of:
Level 10 Butterfree
Level 12 Pidgey
Level 12 Mareep

I have 4 hours logged because of massive idle. I just defeated the first gym leader and I'm about to go into a cave.
I hate not being able to control traded Pokemon. I would just trade in my pokemon from Diamond and just fly by D:
By the way in Diamond I have:
Larvitar
Gible
Alakazam
Gengar
Machamp

I didn't find Pidgey to be as effective in this game as it had in others. I kept switching bird Pokemon in this game for that reason. Right now, I'm using Lugia, but I also used a Murkrow for a while.

Fuck you Red, now I need to grind more.
Okay, so I'm taking a different approach at getting Blue's number. It might be that you have to physically wait a whole day instead of fucking around with the time. Because I think the game has it's own built-in clock, or something along the line. Also, Buena is not renewing her password, which is pissing me off.
Got a Politoed now. Fuck year.
K, so I think I figured out what I was doing wrong with getting Blue's number.
Obviously since you can't fuck around with the time on the DS, you literally have to wait a whole day before Daisy can groom another Pokemon. And she won't groom your Pokemon on your approaching 3-4, you literally have to wait 24 hours for her to groom again. That's balls.

What moveset does it have, I almost bought a shiny stone after grinding the Power pokeathalon for 3000 points but I'm not buying it if I will never use togekiss
Also, not sure if anyone has posted an FC but you should edit the first post and make an FC list
Posting mine asap
And why is the safari zone so confusing, I have no idea where to put these stupid items that Baoba keeps calling every 5 seconds that he recieves.
Air Slash is a great move for togekiss whenever he gets it... so much flinching ensues
Fuck it is hard to have a balanced team. at least level wise. All my pokemon are like lvl 26 and I'm about face the olivine gym leader. I feel like they're supposed to be like lvl 30 something by now.
BUUUUUUT. I have made better progress on the pokedex this go around. I've got like 50 pokemon. When was going through G/S/C at six years old, I only had like 15 by the time I beat Red. I didn't give a fuck about catchin pokemon. I had the ones I wanted.

BUUUUUUT. I have made better progress on the pokedex this go around. I've got like 50 pokemon. When was going through G/S/C at six years old, I only had like 15 by the time I beat Red. I didn't give a fuck about catchin pokemon. I had the ones I wanted.
Oh man, I hope you beat that clanwood bitch first.
he is much lower leveled so you can reap some exp off of his trainers and him.
I learned the hard way that you were supposd to beat him first, after losing to jasmine 300 times. My whole team was like in the 40s when I beat her, after I beat the clanwood gym leader.
Yeah, keeping all the levels even is difficult. I just trained a lapras up to 45 from a level 1 egg, took 3 full days training in caves, and that pond in Illex forest full of Psyducks/Golducks (GREAT for EV training Special Attack, nothing but ducks are there, 24/7)
Meanwhil I kept getting called for my Kingler egg.
The point of training the water pokemon: To defeat Brock. At level 45, with a level 56 Dewgong for backup, Lapras wiped up Brocks entire team with OHKs of Brine. Except for his random Omastar, I swapped lapras out with amphoros and finished it.
So now I am starting all over again to take on Misty.

Yeah, I am like 50 behind on my Seen/Caught ratio.
I have been evolving pokemon I never would use, but then end up using alot, because I never used them before. There are so many options, it's ridiculous.
Caught Snorlax today and will be battling Brock fairly soon
Politoed is now lvl 50 RUB IT
So I was training in Mt. Moon when I decided to go to the top. I noticed that little pond up there and thought,"Hmm, I wonder what pokemon are in there...."
Go back and forth when HOLY FUCKING SHIT GOLDEN MAGIKARP!
This is my second shiny EVER and both (the Zubat previously [now a delicious shiny crobat]) in SoulSilver. Did they up the encounter rate or am I getting extremely lucky?
I heard the shiny encounter rate is lowered by game time. I have 154 hours clocked in when I found the golden karp.
Oh and it kind of sucks because EVERYONE gets a shiny gyrados at the Lake of Rage :/
I'm just not going to evolve it :]

I caught my first and only shiny (without Red Gyarados) on Soul Silver. It's a yellow Weedle. giggle;
I WANNA FIND MORE
I've only found shinies in the original Gold and Silver versions. And I've found a ton of them.

When I get far enough in the game I'll catch a Phanphy and trade with you <3
do you still play pokemans
it doesn't matter anyway, since my router isnt compatible with my ds. but...does anyone still play this game?
uh finding shinies in diamond and pearl is ridiculously easy
i caught about 7 shiny togepis trying to find one that also had a good enough nature to use
but then i blew it all ;_;
anyhow i still play soul silver

why do normal pokemon have to suck, they're my fav, fuck this game!!
should i use the drowzee and gastly i dropped off at the daycare center??
speaking of daycares, i dropped off a wooper and a ratatta and went to go check out goldenrod city, and before i knew it they already made me an egg. so i went to pick it up, and im halfway through the city and they'd already made another one. i remember breeding being much harder than this.
also voltorb flip is pretty much the greatest thing ever. ive clocked 9 hours so far, and at least 3 of those have been wasted playing that game. i cant ever get past level 5 either, so i dont get why i love it so much.

Sure that'd help; you could just use one too
hey what level should my pkmn be for the elite 4?????
this is my team
meganium lvl 50
kadabra 46
delibird lvl 43 (planning on making him at least lvl 48)
skarmory lvl 40
nidoking lvl 43
ursaring lvl 33 (i'm currently training him. maybe get him to lvl42)
If I'm remembering right being right around level 50 with most of your pokemon should work out fine

That's the kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
No really sweeeeet goodjob;
I just took out the Elite Four, and I wasn't at level 50, so you should be fine. Being underleveled makes things more exciting anyway.
My team:
Typhlosion lvl 40
Ampharos lvl 40
Gyarados lvl 40
Heracross lvl 39
Espeon lvl 40
Pupitar lvl 33
It took a little luck, namely with Bruno's Machamp and all of Lance's Dragonites. The only way I could kill Aerodactyl was by Focus Sash countering one of its attacks.
So, yeah, just get something that learns ice moves (I thought Delibird only learns Present?), and you'll be ok. Kadabra could probably take out both Koga and Bruno (My Espeon only knew Psybeam), and you could probably push your way through the other two. Put Choice Specs on Kadabra though, just in case (I think your Mom buys you one, either that or it's at the Lake of Rage). Meganium will be useless, you should get an electric instead to make Will easier and give your ice-type a backup in case it's too weak.
(I'm not a pokenerd I swear D: )
Oh and on the subject of ID bragging, mine is 48444.
meganium is my starter, so i can't abandone him. besides, he knows poison powder and lightscreen. dude can take a hit.
but yeah, my meganium (lvl 45) killed lugia at least 10 times while i tried to catch it. he died only 3 times. lugia'son wind move took only about 1/3 of my meganium's health after i used light screen so really he's a solid investment.
i taught my delibird blizzard and fly. i mainly have him for lance.
Does your Meganium know leech seed? You could murder pretty much all of their pokemons using that, but it would probably take forever.
Oddly enough Lance never Hyper Beamed me, I dunno if he even still has that. Go to the Indigo Plateau (lol i love that name), and save before you go in and try to see how far you can go. I'd stock up on Revives and Moo Moo Milk before you do it, but you might want to get Hyper Potions if you're already in the 200 range.
houndoom slaughtered my team, since nidoking is my only counter to fire type and he was lvl 43 going against a lvl 48. other than that little hangup i did pretty well. just gotta train nidoking more make sure he doesn't die in 2hits.
yeah i'm at lance and delibird was my main guy for killing his dragonites except i didn't realize delibird sucks ass and misses 4 times out of 10. i saved rightbefore i got there since i didn't struggle much with the other guys and thought, "well if the other guys were this easy lance won't be too hard". i don't think i'll be able to win :(
Yeah Delibird is terrible. I just took my red gyarados and had him at level 40 for lance. he learns ice fang somewhere in the 30s, so that coupled with a nevermeltice did the trick, since gyarados has a massive attack stat. everything was a 2 hit ko, but had he not frozen some of the dragonites I probably would've lost.
gah. lance destroys me team. i should've looked online and seen what exactly his pokemon were so that i's have a good strategy for him. i thing delibird is cool but seriously he's worthless as a fighter. i don't have any other ice types so i just went with him. i'm saving my red gyarados because i want to ev train him.
GAAAHHHHHH
i'll fight him 5 more times and if i can't win i'll just give up and find a better icetype.
Hey, just a little reminder: August 31st the latest Pocket Pokedex book for GenIV is being released, containing tons of information over each pokemon, movesets, and everything.
At Amazon, you can pre-order/buy it for $10, which is 4 less than anywhere else.
Also free 2day shipping (day of release for pre-orders) with amazon Prime. If you already used the trial, if you go to college you can get a free year of amazon prime just by entering your school and major, I believe.

he's pretty strong and can take some damage. i wish i leveled him up more beforehand. he was only level 35 but still he helped me a lot.
