*reads back* Wait, the game incorporates seasons now!?

[Sakura Leic]

Yup once every month.

[Sapphire Knight]

Yup once every month.

Huh. Well, if I'm understanding what you're saying, then now I have a semi accurate time estimation.

1 year in-game = 4 months real-life

Something like that, but it's still 3 months per season so even with the eractic changes it's still roughly the same.

[Police Girl]

To that I say good. I'm [tornado fang]ing sick of Zubats and Geodudes in every game.

As am I, sick to [parasitic bomb] of seeing Pidgey and Ratatta everywhere too.

Don't forget the Magikarps.

[Gaia]

Don't forget the Magikarps.

Nor the Tentacool and Tentacruel.

[Dantonumanoa Ongdolota Amycronicon]

Ok, I must know why nobody has mentioned this at all. Oh, there's more Coro Coro info now too >.>

This is the best news I've heard all year.

[Police Girl]

Nor the Tentacool and Tentacruel.

OH GOD THE TENTACOOL.

Moguryuu's other ability, Sand Throw, boosts its Speed in a SandStorm. Remember, we learned the other day that its ability, Sand Power, boosts its Attack in a SandStorm, however it specifically raises the power of Rock, Ground and Steel moves.

In addition to hitting multiple opponent's, Kurumiru's Bug Resistance also may lower Special Defense.

All Eeveelutions get a unique ability if obtained in the Dream World, as we knew. We also knew Vaporeon got Hydration, and now we know that Glaceon gets Ice Body

Status ailments appear to slow a Pokémon's animated sprite movements. Vaporeon's eyes appear to close when it falls asleep!

There are explorable maps in the Dream World where you will be able to find items and meet Pokémon.

Berries that are found and buried in your garden must be buried as is the case in Berry Pots and when planted around Sinnoh. Whether growth times will remain the same is unclear.

The land you own can be expanded through planting berries.

In the Dream World your house (interior AND exterior) can be decorated and you and your friends can visit eachother's houses.

The Global Battle Union ranks you and others and compares battle statistics in real-time.

The C-Gear has a feature where you can partake in polls. In the gallery, you'll notice some pictures of a messy lab. This lab tracks/manages the poll information.

Which is why I waste most of my money maxing out an item slot with Max Repels.

I never go into ocean water without a Max Repel sprayed on prior to entering the water.

Nintendo should make selective Repel in the next game or something.

"Bird Repel" "Rat Repel" "Cave creature Repel" "Squid Repel" That way you can still get the other better pokemon hiding around without the hassle. You know, like the roamers. Once you pass them in level you can't see them unless you swap to a weakling that probably doesn't have the moves you want.

Aye. That would be helpful. I've caught many a roamer only to lose it due to a repel being active.

His point was so a repel doesn't act against a roamer. He said nothing about not catching them. Which can be done just as easily with a certain move, you may know of it. It's called BLOCK. And it's NOT a waste of a perfectly good Master Ball.

[Sakura Leic]

Oh shoot your right, I hate when I get the wrong idea.

not much else worth using a master ball on

Well, block on a Soundproof with False swipe and Yawn. Thats the best way...

I used it on SS ho-oh because i'm a lazy [tornado fang]. My dipshit friend used his on rayquaza back when he played sapphire. (speaking of which, is at lvl 85 and currently stewing on my PC. while my Rayquaza that knows fly is with me. He wasn't the brightest one, giving his best pokemon (that knew shitty moves) away for a groudon.)

Currently I think i'm doing pretty well with the legendaries, I currently have all the Kanto ones, hunting down Latios, Caught Latias, Kyogre and Rayquaza were obtained through Gen 3 rather than wait for my Uncle to finish his file up. Groudon will be done when I feel like it, Ho-Oh and Lugia are mine, and Entei and Raikou are running around with 1 HP each, waiting to be blocked.

And of course, the Sinnoh ones and Those Event pokemon are going to be a while, because Nintendo thinks the US doesn't want Celebi ever, Shaymin passed me by (So did Arceus.), Mew might be on its way, and Jirachi will be a long time from now more than likely. And Darkrai won't be till it appears in another movie more than likely.

It's impossible to beat the Elite 4 in Emerald. Luckily you can get Rayquaza BEFORE you beat them. Unfortunately you're too underleveled to fight him.

MASTER BALL.

That was my strategy anyways.

Seems like a good enough reason.

if its impossible how come i did it.

You should probably grind more. Its frustrating, but worth it. I mean, I was underleveled with a level 60 Sceptile to fight with, but i did it.

I use Blaziken. And I was level 66. I suppose it was the fact that I never let my main pokemon have non-offensive moves. Matter of fact, I never DID use stat-altering moves until I got LeafGreen.

[Sakura Leic]

I never used stat altering moves until Soul Silver.

[Shinigami No Tekken]

I never used stat altering moves until Soul Silver.

Offensive trainer as well, eh? MY BRETHEREN!

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah except for my Blaziken all 7 of my pokemon have 3 offensive moves and one support move.

[Shinigami No Tekken]

Fixed it. Unless you have 7 pokemon in total. If that is the case, I apologize, but I must throw in some kind of noob joke.

Hopefully that's not the case.

[Sakura Leic]

I do have 7.
