Darkloids are solo navis that hate humans with a passion.  Zero was a virus that was made by Wily, but Wily couldn't find a use for him so eventually the Professor dude used him and somewhere along the way he developed his own will and could think.  Yuichiiro Hikari then turns him into a net navi.

This one requires an event item it seems, and tiny legendaries as promotional-only are quite common; at least one exists in every generation.

Which means that chances are it's going to be at least a psychic if not a dual psychic.

A standard moveset for Salamence, as Hypershell said, would be Earthquake, Outrage, Fire Blast, and Dragon Dance, although you have to breed to get Dragon Dance so you might want to consider Double Team or something.

Sceptile is a Special Sweeper it'd probably be a good idea to teach it Energy Ball, Focus Blast, Dragon Pulse, and Synthesis.  The problem with Sceptile is he only has those 3 special moves that he can learn plus he'll still have trouble against Flying and Fire pokemon.  

My recomendation it to swicth him out with a Tortera because most of your pokemon are built for Speed and he has a great physical attack power, physical defense, and a move set that can be adjustable and cover a lot of his weaknesses.  Not to mention he gets a STAB Earthquake and Wood Hammer, and he has good HP and Defense so he could survive it and the next attack.  Wood Hammer, Earthquake, Stone Edge, and Synthesis is what I would do but I recomend staying away from Ice types.

Blaziken, oh god how I love my Blaziken.  This guy was made for type veraity: Flare Blitz, Earthquake, Shadow Claw, and Sky Uppercut.  You could switch out Shadow Claw for Stone Edge if you're deftly afraid of Flying types but chances are that said Flying type would be much faster than him so I wouldn't recomend it plus it's great for taking out a Gardevoir since it's slow and has some bad Physical Defense.

Swampert's not exactly my cup of tea but he's still a good pokemon.  Pretty much the same move set as my Feraligatr only his Earthquake is STAB too.  Aqua Tail, Earthquake, Ice Punch, Mirror Coat.  Now this is a lot of work!  It can't learn Aqua Tail, Ice Punch and Mirror Coat naturaly.  First you need to breed a female Swampert, or other pre evolve form, with a compatible male pokemon to get Mirror Coat or go to the Battle Frontier.  Second you need to spend a lot of time at the trainer House and Battle Frontier to get BP for the other moves and you need a total of 104, I have no idea how much Mirror Coat is but it'll add to the 104.

Crobat not one that I would work with but he has some very decent moves.  Cross Poison, Brave Bird, X Scissor/U Turn, Steel Wing/Agility/Double Team.  Now there's only a little work for this breeding a female with a male for Brave Bird and getting a heart scale for Cross Poison but at least it's not near imposible like with Swampert.


Jolteon is pretty easy to do as long as you stay far far away from Ground types.  Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, Signal Beam, Agility/Double Team  Again go to the Battle Frontier to get Signal Beam but those are the only Special Moves it can learn.

Gengar is another pokemon I don't work with but I can figure something out.  Shadow Ball, Thunderbolt/Thunder, Energy Ball/Dream Eater, Hypnosis/Rain Dance/Double Team.  Well I guess you can use him to power up your own moves, I don't know I don't work with him.

Now for the Psychic type the best, in my opinion, are Espeon, Gardevoir, Gallade, and Hypershell's favorite Mewtwo.  Espeon is basicly a clone of Jolteon except replacing Thunderbolt with Psychic, but hey it works for Will Gallent's Speed team since he has both.  

Gardevoir is my obvious favorite because of it's High Special Defense and her move set can take out a Vaporeon and Mewtwo.   Psychic, Shadow Ball, Thunder Bolt/Energy Ball, Light Screen.  Basicly pick your poison Gardevior can also learn Trick Room but it's not really worth it.

Gallade is the same thing execpt you replace the first 3 moves with Psycho Cut, X Scissor, and Thunder Punch.  He can learn Stone Edge but you might not want that since it only has 5 PP.

Mewtwo, Okay I have to admit he's probably the best pokemon for covering all his weaknesses.   Psychic, Shadow Ball, Aura Sphere, Flamthrower/Fire Blast/any Support Move you want.  Yeah I don't exactly know the best way to use a Mewtwo but the possibilities are endless for One on One.  Ask Hypershell for more details.

That's true I mean here in Barns and Nobel there is barely anything that catches my eye and they take out a lot of mangas I like too, like PhD and Dazzle.  In fact sometimes they put mangas like the Kingdom Hearts series and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumia in the teen section...near the Twilight series. *shudders*  The pokemon manga is in the kids section and they only have up to the Yellow saga.  

I don't get why the manga industry does this, I mean I was lucky I found a copy of the ZX manga and Megamix in Barnes Noble because normally I don't order online because I expect it there!

Ah, good. And don't forget the basics for a good location, space, distributors, etc.

Of course, like I said I'll wait til I'm older because as I said before I'm not fond of my town because it's really really small.

That seems like a wonderful goal. A bit common for teenage idealism, but I hope you'll get there. =P Still, start thinking of your own life early. It's a good thing to do.

I'm not even sure if my genereration even has idealism because as far as I know they don't care about anything other than themselves and the people they text.  Honestly I'm not exactly sure if it's normal teenage behavior to be deliquents or just because there's nothing intresting in this town.

As for the comics that's really good advice I had no idea it worked like that.

It's good that you want to start your own business, but there's a whooooole lot of factors you have to consider before actually starting it.

...that, and if you plan on getting initiated on western comics, PLEASE ask for advice. I fell out of the loop in the 90's because I had a completely crappy taste. ake sure you go in reading something like some classy Vertigo thing, or something. Surf the wave into the awesome. (Franco-Belgian comics can also be excellent. I recomend)

Don't worry I'll only start my business after I graduate from college with a Major in Plant Science and a Minor in Business, because I don't want to end up like my mom's boss his business is doing well but sometimes he has no idea what he's doing because he had no former business lessons, I mean you can run a business by only following your instincts but I'd like to get a former knowledge so I can get a better understanding of how it works. 

I want to learn about plants as well. I don't know if it'll be for the plants themselves to sell so people can have an alternative to getting food or simply so they can have cleaner air.  Or to use the extract of the plants to help people thereputicly with oils, bath salts, soaps and other things like Bath and Body Works but hopefully a little less expensive and a bit more organic since, well people are using it. 

I just want to help people either way because I'm a mostly honest person and I despise people who take advantage of others just for money. I mean I like money as much as the next person and I am a bit greedy but only because I want to be able to be happy I can buy or afford things, be it for food or recreation, without having to depend on others too much.  But this way in the future, I mean I'm only 17 for crying out loud I have plenty of time to find out exactly what I want to do.

As for the comics I need to find a store first with really old comics so I can start from the beggining, although I hope it won't be expensive.  I probably won't find one it's just wishful thinking on my part.

What the hell? Since when is Sakura dropping knowledge on fools like this? I've been away from the site waaaay too long.

Eh I plan to own a business and I'm good with money so I guess it's natural for me to understand this.  Plus I'm tired of bookstores not having any veriaty in there manga selection, because I'm one of the few people who actually would buy the official release if they have it since I'd rather read it in my hands than a screen.  Yes America has their comics and I really should start thinking about reading some, if they have it, because for some weird reason thanks to my brother I'm really intrested in X-Men, and maybe get some Batman too since he's my favorite hero.  

But I grew up with manga and I don't like a majority of shojo since it's not really realisitic and a couple of them are yaoi.  I mean I don't mind light yaoi, heck 2 of my friends are bi, and God Child isn't that bad but I prefer strait couples thank you very much.  I also don't really go for a lot of main stream manga either, I prefer lesser known mangas like PhD Phantasy Degree, Gimmick! not Hot Gimmick just Gimmick!, and the Saiyuki series.  Okay Saiyuki is a bit more main stream but not a lot of people have any idea what it is.  But if I can't go to a book store to pick up a copy of Kami Kaze Kaitou Jeann or Dazzle to only find it's not there or it doesn't exist anymore than what can I do.

I only know about what nostagia critc does because of my brother because I don't know the name of the web adress and I need new speakers.

It has nothing to do with greed

It's not really about greed per say it's more about stupid desisions on both sides.

Well if they start translating more manga and bringing it to local bookstores so that way there's more than those vapid and not really intresting shojo mangas then they wouldn't have this problem in the first place.  Furthermore scanlation sites shouldn't even translate the entire thing if it exists in america fully translated already.  They should only give samples of it, like 1 chapter or one volume, so that way we can decide if we want to buy it or not because there are mangas I wish I never bought, ie. Gintama, Scrap Princess, Peace Maker, Dears, and a few others.  

In fact they could use the sites to advertise or even sell the manga.  Scalation sites should also have a price for downloading the manga and some of the proceeds should go to the creators of the manga they download.  But the way that both ends are going is beneficial to no one.  

There's a demand for manga but the companies aren't providing the supply so therefore people are forced use scanlation sites which not only provide the supply they reqiure no profit which means the companies lose money dispite the fact that they don't have a supply to give to lose money in the first place.  So because some of the companies are losing money they are boycotting theses sites and forcing them to shut down, but chances are this is going to happen again because they'll probably still provide no suppy and call for the demand of non profit scanlation sites to provide the non existant supply and the consumer would much rather read it on a computer screen for free instead of paying for the offcial release, if there is one, no matter how many times said sites beg them to buy it.  It's a vicious no win cycle because both organizations are made to not work together harmoniously like other relationships between internet media and what said media is showing you.

Take the Nostalgia Critic for example, he reviews really old and really bad movies for no profit other than the donations he recieves.  However he gives credit to people who made the films so that way the companies who made the horrible movies get more dinero and pubicity because the people watch the reviews want to buy the movies to actually see how horrible it is and show their friends.  That's why Fox, Warner Bros, and other networks like him because he is actually supplying a demand for thier excess suppy, or at least they get more publicity/ratings whatever works.  

On an somewhat unrelated note one independant director is actually trying to sue the Nostalgia Critic saying he can't show his image on his site, which isn't illegal and he's only suing him because his feelings got hurt because the Nostagia Critic said his movie was bad.  It makes no sense because his movie was probably bad and now people want to see it.  But Nostalgia Critc took down the image because he's nice and likes to fight fire with fire.  The independant director is going to be premoting a comedy short at Comicon and he hopes to get a contract with Comedy Central for it.  Nostalgia Critic is also going to be there to boycott the short with a few of his friends, so chances are if this works the director is going to lose a huge amount money because he was dumb enough to try to sue someone without a concret reason.

In conclusion I find this complaint to be stupid because these guys aren't doing anything to satisfy the consumers demand but I understand why scanlation sites shouldn't be continuing the way now because they are hurting these companies even more than the companies are hurting themselves.

Still even though Mewtwo is a more deadly as a 1 on 1 pokemon you did pretty much obliterate my team pretty easily, even though they were built to be a one on one team.  Plus Role Play and Vaporeon with the continuous surfs is pretty potent the fact that you contantly.

I mean just because I was able to kill him or make him go critical easily with Gardevoir because of Trance and her high Special Defense doesn't mean he's not very threatening in a Double battle, heck most people would be scared that you would use him in the first place.  Maybe you could make it so that Mewtwo could protect Vaporeon and himself as much as he can with Light Screen and teach him Aqua Tail to heal Vaporeon too so that way they'll be even harder to take down.

I mean that's another reason why Steelix's Earthquake did so little damage against my Feraligatr, his high Defense and using Reflect with Metagross holding a Light Clay.
