Caraboo

So... Murkrow is unavailable to catch, and its popping up on my Pokedex map is untrue? >:

never mind I didn't read before posting. >> My fault, ignore.

Thats def stuff I'll keep in mind. I never even thought of Ludicolo! Isn't it bulky? Roserade and Ludicolo could def fit if I needed either a bulky mon or a speedy hitter and switch off. I can be anal about typing on my team, though so I'll have to consider on that one. XD What is the chance of getting Maril from that egg, anyways? I've heard nice things about Granbul, plus I love bulldogs whoop. XD A lot of these are just 'mons I've wanted to use, but have never really had the consideration to use whenever I was teambuilding before, in any game, really. And yeah, no weakness Eelektross, thats... Pretty sweet. I was actually going to use a Crobat in a Firered run, then I learned Golbat can't evolve into Crobat until you get the National Dex and just kinda went :I pets pink plague doctor birb anyways

I'm pretty sure that whenever I get to the end of Chapter 15, I'm going to make a second game folder to replay it through with some different 'Mons. Obviously from these lists, I already have a few Pokemon already picked out, but I was definitely wondering if anyone had some advice or maybe something better to use? Plus some moveset suggestions would be nice. I'm no competetive battler, but those gym battles are some kind of hell trying to muscle through when you don't have the right moves. Team 1 Idea: Team 2 Idea: OR (SIXTH MEMBER ??) Team 3 Idea: (SIXTH MEMBER ??) --- Of course, Dragelge is a big 'if' on Team 2 and 3, and Eelektross and Ampharos are kind of interchangable right now, but Eelektross is being highly considered mostly due to the fact that I haven't used it before. I like trying to do different things each time, but I definitely want a well balanced team. What do you people think?

After a grinding session, Aya wasn't too much trouble, actually! I made Floatzel start pulling her weight and got her to level 46 to learn Aqua Tail, and that move was a huge savior. It got Nidoqueen out of the way immediately. Camerupt and Manectric was still my main support due to STAB moves and Manectrics speed, but just learning that move was so helpful. Though, even though I've gotten through the ice gym now, I'm considering going back to the move tutor real quick to get Floatzel a couple of better moves to support her, and Zangoose ought to re-learn Crush Claw, though I'm loving X-Scissor and Night Slash, and Taunt is pretty awesome too. Annnd FINALLY, my Noibat evolved. Thank goodness. Noivern is doing so much better.

I've been kinda wondering this for a while, so what goes down? Do I get to keep my progress? If so, how? I'd rather not have to start back from square one. o_o

My Seperior actually has contrary, but the field doesn't seem to count it, I noticed. I tried that strategy, but his acuracy lowered anyways? I do like my Floatzel but I agree, the moveset isn't exactly wonderful right now. I just really needed a water type at that point, and Buizel was the best thing. Its definitely worth replacing? Because I haven't finished the Daycare event at all, so I don't have a means to get a Growlithe egg asap. I was honestly thinking about going for that Lapras you can get later on in the game, but I don't know how much later that IS right now. So... If I got Noibat to level 48, then lowered her level, she would keep the evolution? Huh. But won't she not listen to me at that point? Though, as I was getting ready to head to bed and work out what I would do better tomorrow, I gave Kiki one last try, and I actually beat her with this team. Mostly due to my Manectric and a SP. Attack boosted Discharge after a few Charge Beams, but... Yay. So I beat her and have now gotten to the point of Aya, whom I think I can get past after a grinding session.

A: Whoops, yes, I should have. Fixed now. B: I can get Pumpkaboo/Gourgeist after getting Gothitha, right? (Because I actually got sidetracked and got Solrock and FINALLY got my Zangoose) F: No, I did not. I was losely following the guide back then to save the police officers, but I didn't notice anything about a mystery egg in my skimming! I should go take a look, I suppose.

I can't wait for her to evolve already. XD Mm, I think I might go back and grab that Gothitha then, since that seems to be the closest level option. Grind it for a while around Beryl and then some of the remaining fighting type trainers out there. I almost grabbed Fennekin as a starter, now I'm sort of wishing I did.

So its worth going back to catch a Ducklett and raising it all the way up to its 40s? I was excited to get a Noibat early on but oooh she just isn't keeping up well due to evolving late. I've pretty much stuck to this one team the whole game, and the only 'mon I want left is Zangoose which hasn't decided to appear in Lapis yet.

My team as is is below. I've always had a few issues with Gym leaders in the past, but with Otachi not being able to evolve for another 10 levels, her HP and stats in general leave much to be desired right now. I got lucky, and close, once, when Hitmonchan failed at using High-Jump-Kick twice in a row and KO'd itself, but the Medicham took the rest of my team out. Ever since that, the Machamp pretty much wipes my team after using Payback and I barely get past it. Most of my team is at level 40, or 38/39. Should I got for another grinding session? Get all of them to level 43/42? Or should I just try something else entirely? Here are their movesets if anyone has anything to reccomend I try out; Cassius, Serperior, LV 37: Slam, Mega Drain, Leaf Tornado, Leaf Blade Otachi, Noibat, LV 39: Razor Wind, Tailwind, Air Cutter, Wing Attack Ascher, Camerupt, LV 42: Take Down, Earth Power, Lava Plume, Rock Slide Coyotl, Manectric, LV 43: Bite, Discharge, Charge Beam, Ice Fang Unner, Floatzel, LV 39: Pursuit, Swift, Aqua Jet, Fury Cutter

Ahh, I see. Thank you! I've been hunting that thing since day one. XD

So I just beat Shelly, and, I've been working hard at finding the last 'Mon I want as a teammember, that darned Zangoose. I've found it in every possible location you can find it, but I've turned Lapis inside out looking for it there! Is there another section to Lapis that bec omes available after heading back to Opal? I've encountered it in both Peridot locations, and both Obsidia locations. It... Wouldn't be in the Aqua hideout would it? Because I joined Magma because I needed that water type holy moly I like them the best.

While going to get that Electrike, I ended up finding my first (technically first ever randomly encountered shiny, in ANY pokemon game) .... And it was a Trubbish. I named her Diamond but... I already know what types I want as my last 2 team members. And daannngg that double battle with ZEL and Taka. That was the first boss I had actual trouble with. That Glacion and Espeon were just the worst, and so fast. ;_; After a grinding session and teaching my Manectric charge beam, things went smoother after a few resets due to crits. I just focused on taking ZEL's Eeveelutions out, then Taka, since Lileep really wasn't an issue. Whew! Also, where are people getting those small X/Y / ORAS sprites for their sigs?

Aw, dang I could have used a temp water type member. XD if I want bulk I'm going for a water type anyways. I haven't gone too far ahead in the walk through though so dunno when that could even be.

Oh, yeah there is that. Dunno, this is my first playthrough and I have only 3 'perma' team members right now. I'm thinking I want that Zangoose as well, but I'm not really sure what other 'mons I should go for. Right now I've got a Servine, a Noibat, and a Numel.

I found an egg. Looks like a Drowzee egg. Probably gonna keep it till it hatches and then box it, not a fan of Drowzee. My box hunt lead me to a sort of dead end as far as I can tell. e-e

Ahh, alright. Well I got the game up and running, and thats what matters! Now... To choose a starter. o-e I love them all whyyy.

Ohh, alright! Thank you, that's great to know. My recycle actions are still just... Not, though. Does it just in general take a while? It says it discovered the items but is still kinda loading.

So discovering this game I got really excited. It sounds really cool, and I like the inclusion of all the Pokemon. So after sitting through the download session, creating a folder and extracting files into it... Nothing. Just a finite loop of the blue loading ring. Okay. So I try and extract the game into my VBA folder, it's what I've done with other modded games. However, as I click on the game.exe link, Norton pops up, decides game.exe is unsafe, and removes it. e_e Aaand now the file is so big it won't recycle into my recycling bin very fast at all so I can try again without clogging up my desktop.
