Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

I finally got a Dome Fossil! Quite a few Helix Fossils as well. XD Gonna start training my Absol soon. Not much else to say, though; even though I still have legends to catch and Mt. Stark to clear, I'm getting kinda bored at the moment. ._.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

I'm going to sound humble now when I say this, but seriously, "You too, Skrusti." Skrusti has a pretty cool voice (very masculine but not super-deep or something, very kind-sounding ... sounds like "a cool kid"). You'd NEVER know he was a Pokeyman role-player if all you heard was his voice.

SI, the problem with you (and Thad, both!) is that either your mic isn't working or your Internet connection sucks or you're both talking too close to the mic. (Or some fourth possibility, xp.) You guys break up all the time and I don't even get to hear an entire syllable sometimes. (Example: "good" becomes "guh--" becaused the "--uhd" gets cut off.) It's very hard to make heads or tails of you guys and I have no idea if I sound as breaky. But I don't think it's me since I can hear Skrusti and Kuno laglessly and q_p pretty laglessly, too. It could have to do with regions ... but isn't Skrusti a fellow West Coaster to you guys? If so, then it can't be regions. Anyways, that all stated, your voice sounded sort of high-pitched sometimes SI but Thad's sounded pretty cool and (frankly) I'd have thought he was the older brother if I could only have heard your voices. Oh well, so it goes.

I like my voice. :3 (Way to destroy the modesty! XD) But seriously, I do feel humbled that everybody's all like, "Wow, Talon sounds cool. :o " Now I just need a girl identical to Gardenia who has gone here for years and has secretly admired me but never had the courage to say so hear my voice, be like, "Wow, what a stud muffin :o ", and we can live happily ever after. Based on shallow adoration of my posts and my voice alone. :P ;)

(Note: I hate the phrase "stud muffin" XD ... but if Gardenia used it, , I'll take it!)

The problem with me is my ego. Oh well ... every relationship has its hurdles ...

Loki: Or in your case, MT. EVERESTS. w
Real Loki: Dude. -_-; Why do you always gotta go and make me look like a tool?
Talon: -_-;

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

I have a sexy deep voice.

But aside from that, Talon about our discussion. I caught 2 Deoxys with Masterball (well I reset after, but thats assumed) and the IVs/trait were different. Booyah. Talon thought IVs were static and based on trainer ID. I told him its only static for certain guys who run away like the dogs and crap (once you see them their IVs dont change).

Oh and after my ffxi stuff tonight I'll have a deoxys and some more awesome legendaries thanks to Loki's cartrage with the Nintendo event stuff on it. <3

What you've said here is really hurtful, and I originally wrote a very rude reply. I'm sorry I lost my temper, but I'm still hurt that you would lie like this. You don't post in the thread all day, and then you come on tonight just to stretch the truth with this post. What I said was, "In RBY, legendaries' IVs were set when you created your save file. It's why people were known to wipe their entire paks just because they ran into Mewtwo and he had horrible stats." You took that statement and transformed it into, "Lol, Talon thinks legendaries are the same even if you don't reset. " What the heck, if there was even an inkling of truth to that, then the posts I've made in this very forum where I explain "turning off my game pak to get a better Azelf/Uxie" would make no sense whatsoever. Whatever, dude.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Hmm, just because we're on this subject, i'd just like to say that Uxie and Mespirit's ivs are set the moment you saw them. So, in order to get good ivs for them, you need to save infront of them, talk to them, follow them, catch them, and check its ivs. If they suck, gotta restart to before you talked to it. This goes to Cresselia as well.

In RUSAEM, Lati@s had its IV's preset.

Also, just like to say that my first Spiritomb egg had a very sexy Ived Relaxed Spiritomb. Its IVs are all above 20 except defense. :/

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Yeah my voice sounds deeper than my brothers voice does, and people seem to think I'm the older one (In some occasions). Also during the past few days me and SIs net connection has been real slow for some reason but it seems to get better.

Other thna that I'm currently in Victory Road right now and I think I'm near the end of it and on to fighting the elite four. Its going to be fun.

I don't know what gible or garchomp is, but I'll take them anyway xd.

The new Pokemon I intend to have are Dusknoir and Roserade and keeping the rest of the team as oldies like Salamence, Claydol, Skarm, and Starmie. Might put in a Machamp or Dunsparce for fun. If I can get a good Metagross on Ruby, I'll import and use that after I teach it Thunderpunch on Emerald.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Eevee's my Trophy Garden Pokemon today. 8D

Though last night I traded a Milotic (Lv.02, untrained) for a female Japanese Eevee with a Petaya Berry via GTS. Too bad said Eevee has a modest nature, as I'm now tempted to evolve her (thus reverting her name back to English) and Everstone breeding won't work with her. I guess I could just look for another Japanese Eevee. >.>

Sure. That's common sense. Mesprit and Cresselia are effectively "no different" from Uxie and Azelf, but the major difference between them is that you get to fight Uxie and Azelf upon talking, so "Save, Talk, ugh :x, Reset" is very easy to do, while doing the same for Mesprit and Cresselia equates to, "I'm going to put my gaming completely on hold because I insist on saving before talking to Mesprit, and then spending quite a bit of time trying to catch him in the wild, and resetting every time [to before I ever talked to him] just to get the right stats." In other words, Mesprit and Cresselia are lost causes.

Any news on why Cresselia appears to be "all female" and Heatran has "50% male 50% female" occurrence, even though both creatures are incapable of breeding? What's the point -- to allow for a legendary who can make good use of Attract or be susceptible to Infatuation status?

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Question about Poffins: Does anyone know if how to make higher level poffins (like the level 60 one I was given)? Do you need better berries or just some kind of cheating skill? 'Cause all of my poffins are level 8-10.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

I got an Old Amber and a Root Fossil last night. I already have two Lileep (Ruby female, Emerald male), but if anybody chose the Anorith fossil in Ruby/Sapphire and never got Emerald, I'll be happy to hand over a Level 20 Lileep. Also, I no longer need Aerodactyl ... but if you come online and tell me when to get on, SI, I'm still waiting to give you that Dawn Stone you said you needed.

People are wisening up, slowly but surely. I see a lot fewer "Level 100 Abra" requests for a legendary and a lot more "Level 9 Alakazam" requests. Good for them, I guess. But again, I can't wait for Nintendo to catch on to this and update the GTS software to disallow for requesting impossible creatures (e.g. Level 9 Alakazam). Then it'll be back to the Level 100 requests.

Haven't played the game in a day, all I did was import and Pal Park. Without a story to really drive me, and with the monotony of Battle Tower (ugh, HATE PROTECT, it lengthens battles by SO MUCH because the game has "twice in a row Protect hax" and thus, in the first five turns of every battle, gets to successfully use Protect 4 times ...), the game has sort of slowed down. I really do wish they allowed for a WiFi thing where we could upload different trainers (of a specified max level) from the world to our Battle Park. And get experience for fighting them. That's what I'm really missing right now -- some nice Level 100s that give experience. Come back, RuSa-style Secret Bases.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

anyone able to jump on the wifi thing, I have been able to do the global trade center no prob, but still haven't seen anyone in the basement of the poke center.

It would be fun to hear the voice thing, and maybe do a little battle.

Apparently you can battle people on wifi and one option is to have your guys already at level 100. So you just have to get the moves/effort/evolution and you're good to go. With this feature I can try out alot of guys I want without the boringness of getting them all to 100 first.

No, I knew that. As evidenced by my 2nd sentence, "And get experience for fighting them." The feature you're speaking of is the farthest-to-the-right receptionist at the Battle Tower.

Left Receptionist = you and an A.I. character (one of the five you help escort through caves) do Multi Battle, so you nominate 2 creatures and they nominate 2 creatures

Middle Receptionist = the two traditional Battle Tower options of "You choose 3 from your team for Singles" or "You choose 4 from your team for Doubles." So far, all creatures (for me) have been Level 50. I'm hoping that when I go there with a Level 100 team, it'll change to Level 100, but since it's an equal playing field either way, I guess it really doesn't matter.

Right Receptionist = what you're talking about. Identical to Middle Receptionist only WiFi.

Talon, you should sign on AIM more. We miss you.

Anyway, if you did all the side stuff (contests, berry growing, breeding for perfects, etc.) like some people, I'm sure you'd be able to occupy yourself a bit longer.

Did you get your perfect battle team ready?

I haven't fought the 3rd Gym yet. Hurrah!

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Woot I got a adamant larvitar from deis today and a dawn stone! Sorry about the lack of communication regarding the aerodactyl talon I was busy with work due to stupid ass wedding banquets, but I can still give you the aerodactyl, so you can use it to trade with stuff. Anyways deis wanted me to ask if anyone has a adamant or impish tangela on hand. He can give you a larvitar or two in exchange.

Edit: Since the larvitar Deis gave me lacks dragon dance, would rock polish be effective in it's place? My larvitar is adamant natured, so I figured his attack would be plenty fine (I can also pass swords dances to it via ninjask too, so unless ttar dies or gets roared/whirlwinded/hazed it should be a nice attack boost from that.)

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

I'll keep my Dawn Stone, you keep your Aerodactyl, since we each got what the other was offering. I can breed my Aerodactyl, and besides -- I'll need to anyway (for my own purposes) to get an Adamant or Jolly Aerodactyl, so I'm going to have ample Aerodactyl eggs for the GTS anyways.

Right now, I'm trying to get a complete Sinnoh Owned Dex, so I can have the sense of accomplishment that comes with catching all 150 Sinnoh creatures. A lot of them have been pretty easy (like trading over a Level 35 Aipom from Emerald, using a Heart Scale to make him remember Double whatever, and raising him one level), but there are a few obstacles which seem sort of daunting. Like, how the hell am I ever going to get that Dialga. Or, how long is it going to take me to catch Mesprit and do I or do I not want to use one of my two MasterBalls on him? (Probably will, but we'll see. Of course I'll try to catch him the normal way first.) But really, the main obstacle right now is having the patience to level up babies I caught early on (e.g. make my Level 24 Luxio become a Level 32 Luxray) or to make the big guys I caught later on have babies (like making my Level 51 Floatzel have Ditto-sex and then hatching the Level 1 Buizel egg). It's a lot of Exp.Sharing and a lot of breeding and biking. But if I can get through it, then I don't see why I can't have every single Sinnoh creature except Mesprit and Dialga by the end of the day or perhaps by the end of tomorrow.

Oh, just remembered ... is Sneasel's evo (Weavile) one of those that permanently absorbs the held item? I think I have two Razor Claws, but I don't want to even waste one on a shitty Sneasel. Either a good Sneasel or none at all. Which, again, throws a kink in my "getting all 150 quickly and without much fuss" plan.

Re: Pokemon diamond and pearl.

Ultimate immediate or Ultimate ultimate? I mean ... I'd like to try out my first "ultimate team" pretty soon, but I know it's not going to be my ULTIMATE ultimate team because it lacks at least one (but never more than two) of the following every time I try to arrange it:
- physical wall
- special wall
- status healer
- hazer or phazer
- spikes (of any of the 3 varieties)
- rapid spinner

Also, most tournaments say you should only have one of any given item on a creature, and I can't decide who needs the Choice Band and who would have fun with it but doesn't really need it. (Like, I'd like Staraptor to have it, but I don't think he needs it or even wants it, per se.)

Anyway, expect to see Staraptor and Starmie I guess is all I can say.
