Shirokiba

beat him, dear lord was he a pain. I had to level to 30 just to beat him. Arkbok + Emolga +Quilava. Also, I am trying to get black sludge, I have a pokemon with compound eyes in the lead, trying to get it from trubbish, what are my odds? I've seen some say 20% but I've been spamming them for awhile with no luck.

I'd already stomped the grass gym, hers felt the easiest, Arbok was the MVP next to my Quilava. Those two just swept that battle, easily.

I so had a fun idea with Shedskin + rest on Arbok. Oh well.

darn, was hoping it was. Really useful TM, too.

been checking the forums and topics about TMs, no one seems to have asked, but is there a TM for rest in this game? I could really use it on Arbok.

Yeah, Electroball is nice, one of my favorite electric moves for Sp, Atk electric pokemon. Just comes down to what I need more, type coverage or insane offensive power, both appeal to me in different ways. I guess the next thing I need to do is start figuring out a strategy. Right now it's just attack until the enemy stops moving.

well, it can get Fire, Ice and Thunder Fang which is nice. Though it requires breeding to do that. Emolga is likely still better but Luxray has a BST of 523 and Emolga has 428. Not bad, mind you, and it'll likely work just as good. Though, in the end, once I get all the pokemon for my ice team, hopefully I can get all the moves I want, I'll be using them instead.

which depresses me that I can't get Shinx, it's easily my most favorite Electric type, too. I get why it costs 5k coins, though.

Okay, so Roselia gets put on the shelf a bit, kinda sad, I like my Roselia. I'll go grab Emolga. I want Shinx but getting 5k coins.... yeah..... I suck at that Voltorb Flip game.

What would I need to Breed Roselia with, to get it some more moves other than grass? It's been one of the pokemon keeping me going so far. It's been helpful in all but the fights against the Pulse Tangrowth. i do have an Emolga but I didn't think I was gonna use it, gonna have to check it's IVs.

I'm new to playing like this, used to just using what I like. Well, not working out like I thought it was, well, at least for some of my team. Quilava Lv 27 IVs HP 25 Atk 25 Def 30 Sp. Atk 29 Sp. Def 31 Spd 20 Arbok Lv 25 IVs HP 20 Atk 28 Def 24 Sp.Atk 10 Sp. Def 22 Spd 15 Roselia Lv 25 IVs HP 31 Atk 0 Def 31 Sp. Atk 30 Sp. Def 0 (the pain.....) Spd 14 Goldeen Lv 25 IVs HP 17 Atk 28 Def 13 Sp. Atk 14 Sp. Def 22 Spd 11 Teddiursa Lv 17 (new addition) IVs HP 1 (UGH.....) Atk 29 Def 23 Sp. Atk 25 Sp. Def 10 Spd 30 Meowth Lv 11 (HM slave and has Pick Up) these are only some of my favorites and the only ones so far I could find. I have more preference towards Froslass, Glaceon, Abomasnow, Mamoswine, Aurorus and Hippopotas as my team and I am looking to get them, just need to get that far.... is there anyway I can make my current team better (other than leveling then up, which I am in the process of doing) are there other pokemon I may be overlooking that would do better?

Now I just need to level it up and eventually find a shiny stone, whenever they appear.

my Budew already evolved.

My Goldeen just leveled and got Water Pulse, so I tried again, 2 hit that Pignite, Goldeen for MVP >.>

Okay, so I am running into a bit of trouble beating Victoria to get into the slums My current team is Quilava Lv 18 Meowth Lv 15 Ekans Lv 15 Goldeen Lv 15 (and no water moves yet -.-) Roselia lv 15 Pignite just keeps stomping me (doesn't help that Arm Thrust keeps hitting 5 times, either) Any advice, do I need to make changes to my team? I'd like to keep Ekans and Meowth, if possible.

thanks, I'll check that link out. Edit: I'd actually already read that. It's what got me interested in the game.

Darn. Well, gonna have to just run around a lot, then.

Thanks for the welcome everyone. @Sinikuro013 so just run around a lot to build happiness? Also, I found a common candy, says it lowers a pokemon's level by 1 since it is a candy, will it raise or lower happiness?

oh the grind is just like I thought, trying to get the pokemon I want. I wish my Budew would evolve, is there any way to speed this up, I'm still in the first area. Anyway, names Shirokiba, you can call me Shiro or Kiba, either is fine. Nice to meet you all.
