Re: The Pokemon Thread

Octillery is a decent choice as well. A pure water type with the ability to learn flamethrower. Whoda thunk it?

Anyways, I'd personally still go with Starmie. It's faster, and better defensive stat wise. Either way you can't go wrong, Octillery works too. For me, personally, I already have a big slow tank on my team which is why I'd go with Starmie. It just depends on what coverage you currently have, and what type of team you want to build.

Eelekross Review:
I have to say I actually love him. Not the highest amount of HP, but it doesn't matter with a lot of Attack and Sp. Attack. Eelektross is slow however but his positives out way his negatives. One of my favorite electric types since Pikachu.

Stats
HP: 85
Attack: 115
Defense: 80
Sp.Atk: 105
Sp.Def: 80
Speed: 50




Tynamo
The most annoying part is his first form Tynamo. It's very weak with a subpar move set of spark, thunder wave, tackle and charge beam. He generally gets one hit KOed most of the time as well. He evolves at level 39 so you will have to be patient with him. My suggestion is to use him against pure water and bird enemies and use him every time against Ducklett and it's evolving tree for a 4x damage attack. When your not fighting them then just slap a EXP share on him. It's also very convenient that the Flying type gym is not far away when you get him which is very good EXP farming for him. If he is 32 or higher you should be able to wreck the whole gym. Equip a lucky egg to him for much more experience while doing this. Trade him back and forth between someone else if you can so he can grow even faster if your still having a hard time training him.


Eelektrik
The next form Eelektrik is when it actually becomes usefull. This form is the only form he can learn moves by leveling. He has a wide range of usefull moves he learns like Crunch, thunderbolt, coil, acid spray and Wild Charge. He has a very diverse move set you can experiment with. He also learns Zap Cannon at level 69 however I don't think its worth it. It's 50% accuracy and does 120 damage with only 5 PP. Thunder does the same damage and has 70% accuracy if you want a strong move and also has 10 PP but my suggestion is to stay with Thunderbolt that he learns at level 44. It has 95 power and a 100% accuracy rating as well as 15 PP. Acid Spray is learnt at level 49 and is awesome. It's a poison attack that does 40 damage and reduces the enemies special defense by 2 tiers which basically makes their defense turn into paper. Coil is learnt at level 54 and its awesome because it increases attack, defense and accuracy. A good pairing with Thunder or zap cannon to increase your accuracy if you decide to use them. Crunch is learned at level 39 giving you a dark move you can use if wanted one. Wild Charge is learned at level 59 and while it has 90 power it also hurts you for 1/4 of damage dealt. When you want to evolve Eelektrik use a Thunderstone on him just be sure he has learned the move you want him to.


Eelektross
Here he is, with a 115 attack base and a 105 special attack he will do major damage output. Not to mention with his ability Levitate means he has no weaknesses. The best thing however is the TM's he can learn. Flamethrower, Grass Knot, Hyper Beam and Dragon Claw are among the few of some of the great ones. This is why he is so amazing, the Variety. Say you don't want a fire type but you still want a move, give him Flamethrower. Same with Grass Knot and Dragon Claw. Combine that with Acid Spray and Coil you have a very good set up. There are many ways to go about him and use him so just pick the one that helps your style of play best. His versatility is you best friend.

Re: The Pokemon Thread

Nice review ^.

Also, if I can figure out how to clone a Pokemon, I have almost all of the event ones if you guys want a crack at them (once I transfer them over to B/W that is.)

Do you have AR?

[Candyman5]

Do you have AR?

I do but however it doesn't work with Black/White for the simple reason my AR needs updated and I Don't have the cd or chord for it....

Technically I guess I have it, but I don't use it.

Can't you just download the latest AR programming thing online? I didn't get a CD when I bought mine.

Technically I guess I have it, but I don't use it.

I'm sure there is a cloning code out there somewhere. I have one for HeartGold that I use occasionally.

Probably. I figured out a way for me to clone them though, so no biggie. Works for Gen4/5 so yeah. If anyone needs any clones or anything... Once I finish this HG game up I'm gonna transfer all my Event and Legendary pokemon to my Pokemon black game.

Re: The Pokemon Thread

I found my Gameboy Advance today. Along with it? Pokemon Red, Yellow, and Gold. I have Crystal somewhere too, but no idea where. The save files are still intact amazingly.

I just wish I had another Gameboy so I could get an Advance game and then trade my super old Pokemon to the modern games.

It's like when I was back at my parents house visiting. I found my see-through purple Game Boy Color. Still with no battery cover so old masking tape was over it. In the slot was Pokemon Yellow, and Pokemon Red was right next to it - I was like, "No effin way."

Moving on. I finally figured out all the event Pokemon I have (the English ones were easy, it's the Japanese ones that I had figuring out what was what.) I'll list them for you all here (with accompanying event) - if you want some just PM me and let me know. Note that these are on my Pokemon White game, so even if we've traded before we'll need to exchange Friend Codes again.
