Yeah, it's like I checked the stats of my Pidgeot at the same level as Staraptor. And Staraptor has about 40 higher Atk, 10 higher HP, and 30 higher speed. Yes it has less Sp.Def and Sp.Atk. But who needs those on Staraptor? And what are the chances of it surviving a Thunderbolt/Ice Beam anyway.

Heh, I used Staraptor as my Platinum replacement of Pidgey evolution line.

I'm considering sending over a Gible and evolving it up to a Garchomp, was a pretty awesome Pokemon in Platinum, but I'm waiting till I get the National Dex before sending anything over, just to make it somewhat fair, lol.

I have one decided Pokemon for my final team thus far, which is Tyranitar, just need to plan the rest out so I can cover the types but also all the HM's.

Question for everybody here. I just spent about 100k on buying 2 proteins, 2 calciums, etc. Why can't I use them on any of my pokemon?

I think its to do with the EV's the pokemon already has in the stat related to the vitamin, I think if the stat you are trying to increase with vitamins already has maxed EV's you cant use it. I think thats how it works i could be wrong though its been a while since i looked into that whole thing.

Also you can only use those vitamins 10times i think, so if you have already use 10 before then you wont be able to use anymore

Two of the pokemon have never received vitamins before and they can't use a protein, iron, calcium, or any of the other ones at all. My Tyranitar has been given two proteins already and my Slopoke has been giving two proteins as well.

Do you know EV training? Basically, each Pokemon can earn up to 510 EV points over all of their stats (HP, Atk, SP Dfns, etc.), though no more than 255 in any one stat. Once it reaches 510 points, it won't gain any more. You get EV both through battling wild Pokemon, and vitamins. For instance, if you defeat a Pidgey, you get 1 or 2 points in your speed EV.

Vitamins can raise a stat 10 EVs at a time (so it's easier than battling wild Pokemon) but it will only raise any one stat up to 100. To get that stat all the way up to 252, you have to get the rest of the EVs through battling wild Pokemon. So if you have an EV stat raised to over 100 already through battling wild Pokemon, vitamins won't raise it anymore.

There are certain berries you can feed your Pokemon which raise their happiness but take away EV points. It can help you "reset" your EVs to redo EV training, like if you want the EVs in just two stats, instead of all over the board (which is what you get when you level up a Pokemon by battling random Pokes throughout the game).

Bah, all that money wasted. Thanks for the heads up and great post.

How did you get your Eevee team?

I breed Eevee.

My friend got a female one, and I got a male one.. I breed them for desired Characteristics and Natures. If you want one, let me know, I do charge for a pokemon with an item, and if you want it to be a female or an Umbreon or a Espeon.. it's the smallest amount. If you want it to be a female Umbreon or a Espeon with a certain characteristic, it'll cost you a little more. However if you want it to be a female Umbreon or a Espeon with both characteristics and natures decided by you, it'll be the most.. usually a shiny and a nugget on that shiny.

I'll name it at no charge. :)

Just let me know.

The reason I say this is because females are 12.5% of the Eevee population and to get a pokemon with the characteristic AND nature you want is a 1 in 750 chance. :)

I would like a Eevee but sadly, my DS phat does not work with my WiFi router. The newer models (DSi, ect), do.

Is that because your WiFi router doesn't have "b" enabled or because your not using a WEP password?

I was just wondering because my friend can't get on either and he's not amused, lol.

Ah thanks for clearing that up, I knew I was on the right track but couldnt remember all of the details. (Y)

Does anyone have any of the flying pikachu.. ?

I managed to get a surfing pikachu but still looking for a flying.

Either disable your router's security for a few minutes or change it to WEP. Also, I'm pretty sure that the DSi, etc. can only use WPA for certain games that have been released so far. Pokemon's not one of them. (According to friends who've tried.)

So, I have a lot of Pokemon available to trade if you want something. Here's a list. These are all on my Pearl version btw.

The only reason I have a lot of the same poke is because I used an AR to clone them up, that's all I used it for, this means that I can keep a copy and still trade to others. I have put this list on another site so I'd get in quick if you're after something.

What would you like for that Darkrai?

Guys this probably sounds incredibly stupid but I'm going to ask anyway. What are those funny looking rock ladders? I just figured they were some HM I would get later in the game but I just beat Blaze the 7th gym in Kanto and I still have no clue what they are. :p

Edit: Just beat the 8th gym leader in Kanto, never mind... :p

    • Payday TWO!! Is 13 years old man I feel old - I remember trying it out and if I did not know I would say 5-6 years ago or something
    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
