Don't quote me on that, by the way. I don't use Pokemon with Pressure often enough to know that :lol

And GG. I was actually surprised at how well Ho-Oh managed to hold up. I was expecting it to drop after one Hydro Pump, but then I guess it's more of a tank than I anticipated :p

Palkia definitely would've been a thorn in Ho-Oh's side, since I could only rely on Psychic to hit it (Since it's Fire moves wouldn't do a damn thing).

Also, in retrospect, I should've kept using Recover with Mewtwo and stall out your Hydro Pump/Spacial Rends.

and no, it doesn't cancel out. Lugia's Hydro Pumps always costed 2.

And really? But I used Roost 9 out of a 10 possible times...Now I'm confused...

Thank God Pokémon can't hold revives. :lol

And you're lucky they can't :lol

If they could, then battles would be way too long, because everyone would do it. :lol

Wouldn't it be funny if, being a phoenix, he had an ability that did that? :lol

*sigh*

Damn those move tutors were useful... Can't believe there's none in Gen 6.

Lucario, Cofagrigus, Arbok, Weavile, Pidgeot and Hippowdon.

No Dusclops, the literal mummy Pokemon? :lol

Um, substitute either Pidgeot or Hippowdon for Dusklops.

Though I don't know why you'd run two Ghosts. That's one of the reasons I only went with Cofagrigus.

The other being I totally forgot that Dusklops existed when I typed that up. :lol

Oh, and can we trade real quick? I'm missing Lugia's data.

Sorry...I was really tired, so I took a nap earlier and totally missed this. Yeah. I'm ready when you are.

Oh, and would you happen to have a Silcoon (Not beautifly, not Wurmple, but Silcoon) or a Thunder Stone?
Because these two are testing my patience.

Nine.
Fucking.
Cascoon.
Whichever dip decided that Wurmple's evolution should be random needs to ride the short bus because I'm mad now.

Originally Posted by SideswipePrime (Post 310950)

Ok.

and sorry...no Silcoon, but yes on the Thunder Stone, let me just get that ready for you...

Originally Posted by Matrixbeast (Post 310951)

Thanks a ton. The hoops this game wants you to jump through to get a Thunder Stone is outlandish.
"Beat the Super Secret Training without getting hit, under the target time, and without missing a shot? Sorry, the changes of getting the Thunder Stone is still 5%. You get a Hard Stone." :I

Anyway, I'm online.

Okay. I don't think I can take items in the trade menu, so I'll have to disconnect to receive it.

Originally Posted by SideswipePrime (Post 310956)

I figured. That's why I too disconnected. How do you have Ho-Oh, but not Lugia? HG/SS gave you both.

Oh, and thanks!

No problem! Thank you for Shaymin (or his dex data, rather)! :D

Originally Posted by Matrixbeast (Post 310963)

Yeah. It happens sometimes.

And no problem. I was debating whether to give Shaymin or Jirachi, and I assumed Shaymin was someone I hadn't trade you before.

I'll never understand why X and Y don't let you simply buy Thunder Stones at the Stone Emporium like they do the other three basic ones, but there are two on the ground in the game. You never found either? Or you playing Dex catchup and used two already?

I think you've given me Jirachi before, so I appreciate that.

Yeah, I used the ones it gives you on a Raichu and a Jolteon.
Right now I'm doing this all to finish off my Pokedex, and the two I'm missing that need stones (Eelectross, who I now own thanks to Sideswipe, and Cincinno, who needs another stone that the game refuses to just sell to the player) have been 2 thorns in my side.

Them aside, I need 2 happiness evolutions (Togetic and Leavanny), one pre-evolution (Sewaddle, who I'm holding off on getting until Swadloon evolves into Leavanny), Silcoon (*Rages*), and an event only legendary, Keldeo.



I thought I did, and no problem :D

Outside of Mew, Lugia, and Reshiram (Off the top of my head), I have every Legendary to give you the data for.

Originally Posted by SideswipePrime (Post 310971)

Yes, mister Ryan...*sigh*

Alright. I need Zekrom's, please.

Originally Posted by Matrixbeast (Post 310972)

Nnnno problem! :D

If you want to take him for a bit to have him un-learn, then reteach him Secret Sword. That'd be fine. That way, you get Dex Data for both of his forms.

Thanks!

And don't take Zekrom's Expert Belt :lol

Originally Posted by SideswipePrime (Post 310975)

No problem. :D

and I won't, don't worry. :lol

Originally Posted by Matrixbeast (Post 310977)

And then there were 4. A stone evo, 2 happiness evos, and a Pokemon I need to breed to get.

Originally Posted by SideswipePrime (Post 310978)

You're welcome. :D

I see. Well, I'm sorry I can't help you with Silcoon. I think I had one in Soul Silver, but I don't know where that thing is.
