Discovered someone was holding an random egg roulette over the GTS (and my wifi works long enough to do this!) and restarted the game with the eggs. I got seedot, venonat, onix, cacnea, porygon, and budew. I plan on playing the whole game with this time if I don't go crazy by then. XD
(If you don't know what egg roulette means, it when you reroute your wifi to a specific IP, go on the GTS, and get a random egg automatically from that server. The goal is to use that team you get from the eggs to beat the game.)
I went to catch Kyogre and with the first Quick Ball I caught a Modest one.
That was really nice and lucky. After that, I went to the Safari Zone and started catching some Pokémon there. I am basically trying to fill up my Johto Dex. I also have a lot of gym leaders waiting for me to battle.
First, I deliberately killed Entei and Raikou to remove their paralysis, then headed to the Elite 4 to re-challenge them. This was a fairly easy job, but Lance gave me some trouble with his powerful dragons, especially Salamence and Garchomp. After beating them all, I took out a level 38 Parasect, which knows Spore, from my PC box and equipped it with a Choice Scarf. Then I put it, along with a Mean Look Golbat, in my Pokémon party to hunt the dogs. My first encounter was Entei; I used Spore to make him asleep, then he fled. Once more, I encountered the sleeping legendary, but this time, my Golbat was first in the party. Of course, I used Mean Look to trap him, then started firing Dusk Balls at him. Luckily, from the 4th trial, Entei was caught. And what's the bonus? A Timid nature! ![]()
Other than that, Spirit traded me his HG Kyogre. I went to Professor Oak with Kyogre and Groudon in my party, and he gifted me with the Jade Orb. Now I have access to Rayquaza.
Lastly, 2 more Pokémon of mine (Togekiss and Espeon) found the Shiny Leaf item in the route before Azalea City, bringing the total to 3. Also, I took Quilava and Bayleef from the Day Care, and evolved them to Typhlosion and Meganium, respectively. This, along with Spirit's trade of Kyogre and Politoed, caused the number of caught Pokémon in the Johto Pokédex to become 228 for me!
I just defeated Red. I went to battle him just to see what it was like. Then I kept using Max Revives and as I was about to beat him, I realized I was saving my Sacred Ash. What better time to use it than the champion of the game? What's worse is that it saved automatically after I won, and so now I don't even have the choice of undoing it. Now I'm left with no Max Revives.
Oh well, I beat Red and now I can advance what's left of the story.
Also, I forgot how good I am at Voltorb Flip. I got 2500 coins in somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes.
Well today I got the last shiny leaf I needed So I went to show them to Lyra and got my last star for my trainer card not to mention a pretty nice crown. And thus leaving me unto having the ultimate save file but knowing my luck the next time I turn it on the file will be corrupted o_O ![]()
After a long pause of playing, I've finally returned to my SoulSilver game, at least for a while. I leveled up my team a little bit to the 70~72 range, then headed to Voltorb Flip to earn some coins for a couple of TMs I need. I spent about an hour over there, and I reached level 6 from the first try.
WOW!! That was fast! I'm done already! I only had to breed 2 Pokemon, I had the others ready to EV, so I am done with my new team. I want some challenges before I fight the other Gym leaders, so if you want to fight me then PM me.
*Note* Even though I am a Gym leader, the battle I will do will not be for my Gym Badge, just a free battle. Also, No Ubers!!!
Double post :x

Now, we train like we've never trained before. Ryuu needs moar levels.
I have never beaten this game. As in, I beat the Champion, and even Blue, but I never rebattled the Elite Four or challenged Red.
I have tried starting the game again and playing to the 'actual' end several times, but to no avail. But after I beat Firered (as in, I beat the Champion, but I never rebattled the Elite Four or finished the Sevii Islands thing) with only a Rattata, I decided to do a solo run for every region. So I finally started playing Heartgold again. And God, it is friggin' hard. I lost against every single gym leader so far at least once with my Webster (AKA Spinarak).
I have defeated Petrel at Mahogany Town and have just entered the gym. Wish me luck against Pryce. I'll be needing it.
Just beat Lance. A little less leveled than I had hoped for, so it made for a really tough battle. I got a little lucky, he got a lot lucky, I barely pulled it off.
Used 5 max revives in that match. haha

I cannot get past Lance's Aerodactyl. And if by some miracle I manage to beat it, I still have to battle his Charizard and three Dragonites. I'm starting to consider losing just so I can train some more. And by some more, I mean I should probably get Webster up to level 90-100.
(P.S. Pryce was the only gym leader I didn't lose against on my first try.)
...I finally caught Rayquaza?
Wi-Fi doesn't seem to like me too much, and only recently have I been able to take advantage of the GTS. I think I lucked out on speed-leveling an Altaria for a Groudon that thankfully wasn't from Hoenn like the Groudon I already had.
So....now I have two Groudons. What do. ![]()
I need to do some major grinding. My Typhlosion is only at lvl 60, and I already beat all the Kanto gym leaders :[
Also when I first played I remember that I used Mareep to fight the 1st gym leader, but I used thundershock on his Pidgeotto, but it wasn't counted as "it's super effective!" So I lost :[

I'm still desperately trying to get Rayquaza from the Embedded Tower. It's just way too difficult to get it. I don't even know why. I managed to get Groudon, and my brother was nice enough to trade me his extra Kyogre, so all I need is Rayquaza.
