    I love you, Jenny. Let's get married and trade Pokemon. I bring my DS with me everywhere. No one seems to be impressed by my owning a shiny Ponyta or grinding Magikarp up to level 30 so it can learn Flail.

    35 pokemon? Games or games and other stuff like teddies?

    I will admit I have a pikachu teddy :D

    I remember a time when there was only 150 pokemon you could catch, when pokeballs only came in red and white and the pokemon were based off of animals. Now it seems there are ALOT more pokemon(How the f*ck did all those pokemon just suddenly get discovered and everyones like, holy sh!t there's more pokemon species out there), there are different types of pokeballs used to catch specific pokemon(because apparently you can't just use a normal pokeball to catch a Snorlax you need a heavy one) and the pokemon don't look like they're based off of animals now(A lot of them don't look like anything really. They just look like something you build out of lego or something). Yeah those were the days.

    Ah relax, gen 2 was the worst one personally, never really go gen 2, I'm in love with gen 4 and 5 pokemon though, I think some of them are great. Spiritomb for example is pretty much invincible!

    I mean the ones I've caught in Diamond I'm grinding to level 35 before I continue. I like to keep them all up to par, so I can experiment with different teams on different Gym Leaders.

    For metal work in high school, I made a Haunter. Took forever, but it looked awesome.

    Ah right I will spend hours just training the one pokemon. Good thing about black is using Audino to level up quickly. With a lucky egg it's quite fast!

    Oh yea I've seen that. you can use an action replay to mod a pokemon's stats and moves. I just had 6 magicarp that were so pumped up with zinc, prptien, carbs, HP up etc that they were unbeatable. Use dire hit helps a lot too!

    Used to sit in the back of the classroom trading Pokemon with my friend, much to the scorn of our classmates and tutors; so we were around 21 at the time, and Pokemon was still very much just a kids' thing. Was working in a shop that summer, a kid came in with his Gameboy to buy batteries, was too slow to put my own Gameboy under the counter when he came in, he caught me playing Yellow and asked me if I had some Pokemon or other, he wanted to trade! Wasn't sure his parents would really appreciate that so I told him I um... couldn't play at work.

    Played all Red, Yellow and Blue till I had caught 'em all, then went onto Gold but my ex had left and taken his GBA with him, and I just couldn't be bothered with it on the old original Gameboy.

    Played one of the newer ones on my R4 card on my DS but the damn sd card broke and I lost the lot. Never had the heart to start over.

    That's because it's in the Television sub-forum which makes no sense since anyone who would talk about it would be coming from the perspective of the game.

    Funnily enough I was looking for a pokemon forum because I was stuck at one point trying to find a HM in black.
    Go figure it would be in TV never even thought of that!

    My current black team: (And I'm switching it up)

    Lucario
    Lapras
    Charizard
    Hydregion
    Gengar
    exeggutor

    I'm going to get rid of gengar and get ampharos, and get rid of exeggutor and replace with espeon possibly.

    I like to change up my teams though.
    My normal go to team is always:

    Charizard
    Lapras
    Tyranitar
    Ampharos *he can learn thunder punch/fire punch/ice punch
    Lucario (I'm taking a liking to meinfou though)
