Need to find a drive to the local town today, or I'm going to be a mean fecker.
Gaming Pokémon Strumfest
- Thread starter Snowjoe
- Start date
I'm at work all day then a gig after work. Gonna be an all nighter I think.
I'm determined to use different Pokemon to usual. I always say that but it never works that way.

Turns out someone who knew about me wanting some videogames today had already planned on collecting them for me. Lovely stuff. In a few hours Football Manager will be on the back burner...
That's why I love when a gen comes out where you can't just get the oldies easily. Like Ruby/Sapphire the fist time around, or Black/White. Everyone moaned at the time, but I was delighted you had to finish the story with all new mons.
Hardest decision ever, which starter?
Torchic should be a no-brainer(for me) but we just got one with the last pair. Should probably go with Treecko as it's the one I use least.

Pre-ordered from ShopTo and it still hasn't arrived. Went to my local Sainsbury's and it was actually cheaper there too.
Will either pick Treecko or Mudkip, seeing as I used Torchic for a while in Pokemon X.

I might go Treecko purely because I've never used one before.
Went for Treecko, already love it. Modest nature, smashing luck.
Also, forgot the mystery gift, free shiny Beldum. Probably shouldn't use it, but how the hell can I say no? Metagross is one of my very faves.

Can't wait to play this, should be home in an hour.
Oh, the Beldum gift is genius. It has "Hold Back" a name variant on False Swipe.
A hunter/catcher pokemon immune to poison right off the bat, even if you don't want it for your team, that's proper handy until you get a mean look/false swipe mon.

I forgot the version I had ordered was a special edition which sadly didnt fit in the mailbox so now I have to wait till tomorrow morning to pick it up at the center ._.
Everything was set up to be a perfect night, had bought take-away and had the whole aparment to myself for the night, now I'll probably just have a wank and go to bed early.

Amazing! I've got a mean look false swipe Absolutely but too high level to use at the start of the game so ill be right on this.
10 minutes till I can play, genuinely excited to see which pokemon I get a bond with this game. God I'm sad.
One of us, one of us, one of us.....
Wooo, my Treecko was Modest too!
Awwww yeah!
Done about 15 Wonder Trades tonight, feck all that would go into a team for me, but, a Japanese Ditto and a mon with Pokerus. Score, prepared for post game.
EDIT: Still at Dewford too, ffs, going so slow, exploring, catching everything I can.

My Pikachu arrived today (well yesterday but I picked it up today). That was quick.
Very quick, excellent!
Yep
Need to get some of these games sometime. Not sure whether to catch up with X/Y first or ORAS.

Been resisting getting the new Sapphire for a few days now, been too busy with GTA. I give it a week.
Oh balls, forgot the release was yesterdayish. With GTA out and purchased that along with the replacement Vita, I really shouldn't be buying one of these any time soon but I most likely will get it in the next few days
Got Torchic and Groudon. Both adamant nature in my first try.
My friend code is 2191-8658-2763, by the way. Better late than never

I was stood in the shop with the game in my hand yesterday. Managed to talk myself out of buying it though, thankfully. I've got too much shit to do as it is at the moment!
You need to have a word with yourself!
I will trade a gible egg for a treeko egg if anyone can do it.
I already have a Gible but I'll sort you a Treecko egg tonight when I get back no worries.
Just added you, mine is 4682 8830 9413 just throwing Grovyle into daycare with a ditto now so will have the egg for you shortly.
Is it best to organise cards by set or have all the holo's together?
When I collected them originally I kept the holos together.
Yeah I like seeing all the holos together, its exciting.
Hmm, massive error in my early team, in Mauville, and none of my Pokemon can adequately deal with Magnemites. No fire pokemon either, except Numel(I kinda dislike), and a Torchic I was purposely avoiding.
Also, sitting in my box, I have a Modest/Protean Frogadier, perfectly ev trained. Not sue if I should use it. Massive upgade on my Tentacool, but it was my Y starter.

I'm in the same boat, well I have loads from the bank I sent over which would work but I really don't want to use them on the play through, although I probably will.
I briefly considered swapping Metang over to Y for a few minutes and teach him Brick Break, but he's so OP already....
Dang, I'm an idiot, Steel isn't strong against Dark any more. Time to pass Thief about and get to the smashing.
Yeah its mental! Almost as bad as that speed boost Torchic
I found a Dugtrio in my box at level 26, I don't want to use it but the Ground moves will destroy Magnemite...
Dugtrio!Yeah! I never end up using Ground pokemon but when I do I love them, Dugtrio can be savage. I ended up taking it out and a Roggenrola, those two should rinse this gym.
I ended up scraping by with a Sableye. Tbh, no more than two of my team have a chance of going the distance.
