I think Bacon, Egg & Cheese on a roll makes a delicious breakfast.

He's a Golduck now rofl. And I was going to consider bringing him, but now you have kindly pointed out why I shouldn't. xd

[Loki]

You're no fun.

[Sandaa]

I know. D:

[Loki]

And that is why you'll be first to fall!

[Sandaa]

Damnit. *plots ways to be more fun*

[Loki]

I like how I spam the thread with nonsense while you guys (somewhat) seriously talk about your strategy for the campaign.

Yay, I'm free!

[Loki]

You can both perish together. xd.

I have a Dunsparce! He may be joining up with me since I haven't really used him in any serious adventures. Although he is under-leveled... but he does have a plethora of moves thanks to his previous owner, Joe. One thing about Dunsparce is why it doesn't learn the move Dig right off the bat... I mean it practically lives underground and DIGS all the time, sheesh... But, yeah Dunsparce could be joining the troops on Midnight Island.

I would list my other pokemon's capabilities aka HM moves and other important moves, but SPPF is being a little girl again.

One of the many reasons why I think Dunsparce should be a Ground Type.

It looks like one, you have to admit. >_>

And they march on us.

O_O;

Who needs Darkrai!? *getting nightmares already*

Spinda >( ...

Awesome. I'm not in this campaign, but that seriously has to happen. As well as making god a dunsparce. I can't spell anything.

And yeah, sorry. Good luck, you guys.

[Dark Fire]

Did anyone see my post on the previous page? >.>
I guess it doesn't really matter who I bring in the end. Just maybe thought you guys *coughtaloncough* would have a prefrence based on moves.

I didn't reply because I felt people were beginning to care a little too much about my suggestions (which were only ever meant to be that -- suggestions). In your case, I was torn between Ninetales (who I think is better than Arcanine and who also has a much more useful moveset for this adventure, it looks like) and Arcanine (somebody it looks like you haven't had much experience with and who could really stand to benefit, both levels-wise and story-wise, from going on this adventure). I didn't want to "make your decision for you," which I felt I'd be doing if I voiced my preference. But there you have it: Ninetales for the usefulness but Arcanine for the development of Arcanine's character (and level gain as icing on the cake).

[Dark Fire]

Well seeing as I'm leveling all my guys up to forty today, I think I'm going to bring my Ninetales along. Arcanine, gets my next adventure
Drought is will prove to be more useful I think. Especially because she can talk to me via Psychic ... she also knows Blast Burn, which I forgot to put.

I have a question for Loki. Are we allowed to teach our guys TMs when we post our teams? Teaching them moves in the TC will not get them approved in time.

[Loki]

TMs are instantaneous, so I don't see why not. But again, once the campaign has started, there will be no additions to the Pokemon's levels, moves, etc.

[Jonouchi]

I might bring my Metang along as well, providing we get through any rough stuff, so as of right now, my team is:

Swampert: 100|Water/Ground|Frontal attacker, Defense, Surfer/Whirlpooler
Aron: 25|Steel/Rock|Frontal Attacker
Nidorino: 25|Poison|Support, Cutter
Metang: 22|Steel/Psychic|Frontal Attacker, Defense

Any objections or are we all good with what we have?

[Betagold]

I'm gonna wait for the groans, but since my lack of an updator in Cascadia and my unwillingness to try my awful luck at the casino has all my pogeys horrendously underleveled, here we go!

Houndoom at Level 25: Currently learning Strength, he also has Blizzard, Nasty Plot, Energy Ball, Swift, and Mimic, making him quite capable of holding his own.

Krabby going to be at Level 7: Currently knows Surf and Dig, making him useful in his own little way.

Pichu at Level 7: Currently knows Volt Tackle, though I'm thinking of giving her a few useful egg moves via Cranberry before we go, such as Encore, Wish, Thunderpunch, and Fake-Out. Is this a good idea?

Skarmory going to be at Level 7: Currently knows Fly. Via Cranberry Juice, may know Whirlwind.

Speak no more for this has been solved! *wink wink*

Anyways... still contemplating on the last two pokeys I should bring. And I've got work to get to at 3 till midnight, so yeah.

[Lee-san]

Just a quick heads up that I'll be using Pidgeot as my final Pokemon.

[Loki]

Just to state this again: Aside from HELD ITEMS, no items need to be listed in your post. All items will be provided for you by the expedition. No unauthorized items will be allowed on the island.

What if I want to use berries? You're not going to provide a Salac Berry if I ask for one, are you? But I don't want to make it a held item right away or it will be consumed in the very first battle. -.-

Also, I specifically asked about heal items, and you gave me the impression they would be provided but it wouldn't hurt to have more. Now I've wasted 2000 coins. -.-

Edit: Also, are you saying I can't even bring an escape rope or a conker?
