My Pokemon Teams so Far

Well, sorry for the blog absence. Real-life and Tumblr had been taking my time and I had a lack of blogging ideas. Fortunately, I finished school and i'm about to graduate on the 6th of December.

But enough of that. Because it's something I wanted to do in a while and I got the Pokemon fever again thanks to recently getting Pokemon Platinum (together with Etrian Odyssey Untold), let me show my Pokemon teams I have so far of Diamond and Platinum:

Diamond:

     

Empoleon (Male)

Luxray (Female)

Staraptor (Female)

Machoke (Male)

Lopunny (Female)

Sneasel (Female)

It's not a perfect team, since this is me finally owning a Pokemon game and not knowing a lot, and it was only recently this year that I learned better how the mechanics work. Still, I like this team. It's balanced enough to confront every type and each member has done awesome things. I specially like the trio of Empoleon, Luxray and Staraptor, with Luxray getting the recognition of being my current favorite Pokemon. The dude can hit hard.

I guess the only problem would be that I'm kinda unable to evolve Machoke to its third evolution, since it needs to do a trade and for some reason, either they disable it or doesn't support it, I can't enter the Wi-Fi server of Nintendo on my 3DS. I'm also dissapointed that you only get the method of evolving Sneasel to Weavile on the aftergame, but once I beat the Elite Four (I haven't done that on Diamond yet), i'll be able to do that.

Platinum:

    

Vash the Monferno (Male)

Bowie the Buizel (Male)

Daenerys the Gible (Female); Kudos if you get the reference on the name.

Kirigiri the Ralts (Female)

Spike the Leafeon (Male)

Also, temporary party member and future Fly slave:

Jane the Staravia (Female)

And ex-party member and demoted to to HM Slave:

Wilson the Bibarel (Male)

My in-progress team. They obviously need a lot more development (specially Spike, who needs a Grass attack), but I hopefully with more training and advancing through the game, they will be great Pokemons.

Here's how I see my complete team in the future:

     

Yep, i'm going for a Lucario for my final member. A bit cliche considering he became if not the most popular, the face of the fourth generation of Pokemon. Still, I like what i've seen of it. Not sure how am I going to name it though.

Anyway, that's all for today. Hope I can make more blogging.

I'm no expert when it comes to competitive battling with teams and whatnot so I may not know what I'm talking about, I am going to get serious about it with Pokemon Y though. Your teams aren't bad., they're pretty good, especially the last one. If you have a DS, you can trade the Machoke yourself and trade it back. I think the reason the wifi doesn't work is because Nintendo said it will stop supporting the servers for all non 6th gen games next year, otherwise I'd help you ot with Machoke.

Garchomp is a beast, I had it on my in-game Platinum team. And Lucario, he was my favorite 4th gen pokemon, funny thing, Lucario has always found a spot on my team ever since 4th gen, I had one in Pearl, Platinum, Black 2, and now in Y. If you get X/Y at some point I'll trade and battle with you.

Sadly, I don't have a regular DS to trade Machoke and back. Oh well, I still have my other Pokemons.

Once I get X/Y, i'm definitly batling you. You just have to wait till I have HeartGold, White and Black 2.

Happy early graduation Alex! I don't know crap about Pokemon. I've been meaning to get one of those games, but for some reason have been putting it off. The only one I have is Pokemon Pinball. Did you ever play that?

Thanks!

No I have never played Pokemon Pinball. If you want to get into Pokemon, you should probably start with FireRed or Leaf Green if you have a Gameboy Advance, as those are improved remakes of the original Red/Blue/Yellow games, and then get Crystal and then Emerald. If you also have (or only have) a DS, start with Platinum (Diamond/Pearl aren't bad, but they are kinda incomplete compared to its complete version) and then HeartGold/SoulSilver, finishing with Black/White and the sequel to those.

Still no "useless bug"?!?!?!?!?!

Screw your "useless bug", i'll have "useless early Normal type" instead.

Tumblr ain't hard to dominate. Once you know how the system works, you'll be doing blogs and reblogs in no time.
