Well, I beat the Elite Four on Monday. With this team.
Dragonite Level 62
Donphan Level 48
Umbreon Level 48
Gengar Level 47
Ferralagatr Level 47
Ampharos Level 47
I could of beating the Elite Four before but i wanted to evolve my Dragonair into a Dragonite before I won. Also i just beat the Poison Type Gym Leader in Kanto.
Also Congratulations to my Dragonite who killed all of Lance's Pokemon.
So I was training in Route 45 pwning Gravelers, not really paying much attention to the game, watching my dad fish out on the dock, talking on the phone, etc, when I heard the battle music come on, followed by the Graveler cry, and a sparkling sound. I looked down at the screen... And crapped my pants. Although not really. However I was rather excited as it was a shiny Graveler. I was also very very nervous as I knew it had Selfdestruct, and I have encountered shinies who used Selfdestruct before I capped them before (Damn you Baltoy), and since I was using Jumpluff, who had no non-grass offensive moves, I had to lob my Ultra Ball on the first try and caught him. So now I'm training my new Graveler who I named Jailkeeper. I wuvs him.
I went to a mall where there is a free Wi-Fi. There, I download the Jirachi. However, I still didn't go and get it. I think it will take some time as I need a specific nature. I also caught many Ditto. I wanted an Adamant, yet I failed to get one, but I have couple of good ones though.
I completed Mt. Silver Cave and defeated Red with my level 66-69 team members. It was a really tough battle, but I was able to overcome him. I also received a Goon Scizor from a friend of mine. I'm currently trying to fill my Pokédex up by evolving some Pokémon and catching others, too.
After failing in getting a good natured Ditto, I faced Snorlax and defeated him with two Rock Smash. Then, I crossed the Diglet Cave and reached Pewter City. Defeating the gym wasn't that hard with my Vaporeon, but my Electabuzz fainted. I went to the PokéMart to receive the Jirachi I downloaded long ago from WiFi. I SR(ed) 10 times but failed to get the nature I want. I will continue tomorrow.
Caught all 3 birds and Mewtwo. They were all easy except Moltres, it took about 3 tries on it. I then set a record in the Jump Pokeathelon using the three birds in a team. Working on completing the Johto dex, and still training for Red. My Onix can't take on Pikachu's Iron Tail so until I can evolve it or level it up a ton I'm screwed. Right now my team is in the high 50s and consists of Meganium, Pidgeot, Onix, Poliwrath, Tauros, and Jynx.
Edit: Broke 2 of my personal Pokeathelon records, 444 in Speed using Ninjask, Sneasel, and Aerodactyl, and 473 in Stamina using Poliwrath, Mewtwo, and Exeggutor.
I've traded a TRU Arceus to my SS game to activate the event in the Sinjoh Ruins. The cutscene, although a bit strange, was definitely one of the best I've ever seen in any Pokémon game. I'm currently soft-resetting to get a Giratina with an advantageous nature, but it's taking too long without any success. I'll try again sometime later during the course of today.
I've got Pokérus! I'm working on the Nat'l Pokédex. From Bulbasaur to Mew I'm only missing, Hitmonlee, Rhydon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Porygon, Omastar and Kabutops.
Pokédex stats; Seen: 333 Caught: 257

Well after beating Red with Feraligatr, Crobat, Lugia, Mamoswine, Entei and Rotom, i've been trying to complete the pokedex. For the sinnoh part I just need to see Riolu, Munchlax, Glameow, Purugly, Glaceon, and every legend except Rotom. I need to catch the ones mentioned above, Weavile, Croagunk, Toxicroak, Stunk, Skuntank, Lopunny and Lickilicky. And I'm STILL trying to get a female Eevee from the game corner
A helarious thing that happened a few days ago...
I was in serebii chat asking for either Heatran, Giratina, Darkrai or Arceus. I knew my chances of getting them were 0. A guy came and said he has Arceus so I offer a hardly ev'd drapion and bastiodon. Guess what he said. "I'll trade you Arceus for Bastiodon and a Shiny Metagross for Drapion" So I did it, and I created Giratina.
The shiny metagross is ev'd and has Pokerus. ![]()
I've been working on the Pokeathlon for a bit since I need more stones. I've also been tracking down the siblings of the week, all I need is Santos of Saturday.....

Despite how I'll never get Wi-Fi, I'm just randomly training up my team. it's better than being bored at least.

I took HM 08 and went to the Pokémon League to beat the Elite4 once again. It was a miserable thing I did. My team was very under leveled and couldn't match them at all. Despite that, I won against the champion, of course after using all of my Hyper Potions and Revives. Now that I am done with all the badges, I think I will start my legendary Pokémon hunting voyage!
With my new shiny metagross, i can almost go anyway without a worry, but i'm leveling up my normal team.
Fribble Feraligtr Lvl 68
Zubba Crobat Lvl 63
Lugio Lugia Lvl 69
Rotob Rotom Lvl 86
Maspa 2 Mewtwo Lvl 83
Distortion Giratina Lvl 1
And sometimes I throw in these guys for good measure:
Arc Arceus Lvl 100
SteelFist Shiny Metagross Lvl 100 WITH pokerus

I started preparing for my legendary hunt. I bred few Abra to get some with Synchronize, which I succeeded in getting few. Now this is the list of my Synchronizing Abra: Jolly, Adamant, Bold, Timid, Sassy, Careful and Serious. After that, I went to Route 12 and caught Adamant Snorlax with Thick Fat, holding Leftovers. It was a pinch to catch it.
I went to Seafoam Island, which was completely a maze. It took me some time to reach Articuno. Unfortunately, I failed to capture it, as all of my Pokéballs were used while it kep out of them. I switched off the DS hoping for a better luck tomorrow.
Edit: After failing in capturing Articuno for 5 times today, I was able to catch it with Ultra Ball. Luckily, it had a timid nature.
After soft-resetting for about 15 times, I was finally able to catch a Giratina with a benefecial nature. What I'm currently doing is I'm meeting up with the different gym leaders to exchange numbers then have a re-battle with them. I'm also trying to catch high-leveled Pokémon which appear in the Safari Zone due to the Objects I placed. They're pretty hard to catch >_<
Game "Events" :Caught Lugia lvl 70 with a Pokeball.
Caught Suicune lvl 40, but I can't remember what I caught it with.
Beat Elite 4.
Beat Elite 4 again.
Got all 16 badges.
Beat Red first try.
Events: Draco Metor Jirachi, Emiga Crystal Event.
Pokewalker: Yellow Forest, Night Sky's Edge, Winner's Path.
EDIT: Caught Suicune with Pokeball.
Soft resting for shiny event Latios right now.
I KO Zapdos, so I tried again. In my other try, I caught Zapdos with Quick Ball from the first try without even hitting it once, but it had Hardy nature.
I tried again, and caught a Bold Zapdos with Ultra Ball. ![]()
I received a Jolly Jirachi from the event that was on weeks ago. It took me more than 30 SR to take the beneficial nature. I wen't to the Battle Tower and got my first winning streak. I need 32 BP to teach my Scizor Bug Bite.
I am currently calling the gym leaders in my PokéGear in order to re-battle them. I only have Bugsy, Sabrina, Blue and Lt. Surge to register and I'll have got them all in my PokéGear. Other than that, I've started filling up my Johto Pokédex by getting a couple of Pokémon from my Platinum game.

I remember catching Raikou, simply do the following:
1. Lower Raikou down to Red.
2. Catch a Wobuffet.
3. MAKE SURE IT IS LOW LEVEL
4. Teach it a sleep inducing move like Hypnosis.
5. Of course, Raikou is faster than a Wobuffet, so he will run before he attacks.
6. WOBUFFETS ABILITY! He fails. Use Hypnosis. He will sleep.
7. Use weak moves to lower his HP just a tad more.
8. Throw balls till ya die!
Currently I have beaten practically everything, I just need to level up like, 6 EV'd but not yet lvl 100 pokemon.
|
I caught Raikou with a Dusk Ball after inducing it to sleep. I then decided to fill some Pokémon for my Pokédex. That worked well. I just got the Magnet Pass, and I am trying to catch Latias. It is really hard to encounter it!
|
The entire mid part of kanto is considered one "Block", meaning that they won't move if you go through saffron city to reach the 4 routes by it.
I received Chikorita and Cyndaquil from my Pokémon Platinum game, and I'm trying to fully evolve them by leveling them up as well as putting them in the Day Care. Other than that, I'm still trying to hunt and catch Raikou, Entei and Latios. My next thing to do would be catching the legendary birds.
|
This isn't the problem. My Scizor is more than enough to wall Mewtwo. I caught it more than 12 times, yet it was never Timid. However, I caught it today morning with a Timid nature. I am glad.
|
|
I'm one of those guys, who sort of likes to catch all the Pokémon that only appear once.
|
|
If you're having this problem again, then get an Abra or something with Synchronize that has the nature you want the opposing Pokemon to be. Then there's a 50% chance it'll be that nature.
|
I got a massage from Daisy Oak in Pallet Town, and I took my Cyndaquil and Bayleef from the Day Care. Now I just need to evolve them for the Pokédex.
Other than that, I tried to catch Entei, Raikou and Latios, but failed once more. Entei was so close to being caught by a Dusk Ball many times, but he always escaped at the third shake. Raikou and Latios were much worse :/
