Gaming Pokémon Strumfest

2DS on sale for £80 on Amazon. Thinking of getting one to play X or Y. Total would be £110 quid. Worth it? Also, which version has the better selection of Pokemon?
 
Just replaced Lillipup with Bagon before the 2nd gym in Blaze Black. Never really tried a proper Dragon type in the game before

Bagons a cool looking little bugger, evolves super late like most dragons though, Salamence isn't till level 50!

I rarely use Dragons either, I got a tyrunt on the go at the moment though.

Decent list here http://www.serebii.net/xy/exclusives.shtml

I prefer the ones from X but its preference I guess. Problem is X and Y look so slick I almost don't like going back to the older games now, even the last generation.
 
I started Black but really couldn't get into it.

Are their any cool pokemon? They all look a bit lame, with stupid names.
 
Yeah that's a dangerous game, only takes getting hooked on breeding or something and it's all over!

Happy days here, went to route 11 on my nuzlocke run and first pokemon was eevee! Now to pick what yo evolve it into.

The starters are all a bit naff looking but I thought quite a few of the wild ones were pretty cool. Ones I think look alright:
Rogenrolla line
Drillbur & Excadrill
Venipede line
Basculin
Darumaka & Darmanitan
Sigilyph
Tirtouga & Carracosta
Archen & Archeops
Zorua & Zoroark
Gothita line
Solosis line
Deerling & Sawsbuck
Joltik & Galvantula
Ferroseed & Ferrothorn
Litwick line
Axew line
Cubchoo & Beartic
Cryogonal
Mienfoo & Mienshao
Golett & Golurk
Pawniard & Bisharp
Rufflet & Braviary
Deino line
Larvesta & Volcarona

I caught a Rogenrolla, but isn't its final evolution a stupid trade one? Which is a bit rubbish.

Yeah, as is the Timburr line, I think. The middle-evo looks alright though. Certainly better than Voltorb.
 
FFS I should have learnt to not be complacent by my last failed Nuzlocke run. That gym did not go well....

(obviously Cantona didn't die)

:lol:

You can't even concentrate on your current distractions ffs!

True. I'll do loads of FM experiment stuff on the weekend. 2 pieces of coursework in on Friday so I'm not doing any more work over the weekend. Girlfriend's going out as well on Saturday I think so it's the perfect opportunity to get stuff done.

I know the feeling, i've got deadlines fast approaching now. And all i seem to want to do is watch tv shows and play games ffs!

On a note related to the thread, I've started about 4 different games of Pokemon over the last couple of weeks. Flora Sky, Blaze Black 2, FireRed Nuzlocke and Twitch Hack Crystal Nuzlocke. All of which I've been making progress in. I've also been playing FM on my tablet pretty much non-stop.
 
My Fire Red Omega nuzlocke run just came to a very early end. I had Raticate, Flaafy and Venonat all at Lv20, as well as Hoothoot, Skitty and Sentret all at Lv10-12. Challenged Brock and got destroyed by Onix's Swagger. That's twice now that Onix has fecked me over, last time it was his Dig that beat me. I hate that Onix with a passion.
 
At 3:00 I thought it was good but a bit messy, and then he went around the edges with the black marker :drool:

I wish I could draw that well on an object on anything.
 
Well Twitch is playing Emerald in 17 hours, looking on their Reddit theres a few tricky puzzles that democracy won't help as you can't stand on the tiles too long.
 
Treecko's final form is kinda junk though. I like Torchic but I guess that's negative too because it started that whole fire/fighting thing that got boring as feck real quick.

Yeah it's not my favourite that's for sure.

On the subject of starters, anyone got anymore up for grabs now pokemon bank is in action?
 
Only recently played Emerald so I know it very well but I can't be bothered to follow another one of these.
 
This is exactly why we need to pick Treecko! It forces us to catch things and rely on them (or overlevel Sceptile to death). Mudkip would make things far too easy.

The memes would be unbearable too with Mudkip.

I need to start uploading, I'd easily have them all from every gen, probably close to every pokemon all together.

Ehhh, the fun was dying half way through the 2nd.

Ridiculous, indeed, bad enough as is.

Imagine if they caught a Raltz......
 
I've got 18 so far, they are mainly at landmarks

White House, Statue of Liberty, bellagio fountains etc..
