The All Encompassing POKÉMON Thread

New members, new members. In order to keep things interesting and strategies fresh I gotta train up new members...

Or should I just take the lazy route and cycle back in older members? It's been a while since Kabutops, Goodra, Heliosk, Alakazam, etc etc.

How far into the game are you? Because they can be bought for BP at the Battle Maison.

I don't think I've ever fought your Kabutops, Goodra, or Heliolisk, so I don't see the problem there. But training new things isn't ever a bad thing. Since I don't want to retrain things I've got on W2, that's what I've been doing. Things I have trained but none of you may see for a while include my favorite Electivire (<3), Roserade, Gengar, Nidoking, Aerodactyl, and Crobat... I just don't want to go through them again because training new members is more fun to me.

Speaking of, Gamakichi is now fully evolved and just needs to level up to learn some more moves.

You might want to retrain a Nidoking. Nidoking got a 10 point physical attack boost in Gen 6.

Anyway, it's not that I don't want to train new members, it's just that with this forum's penchant for 2v2s, 90% of my strategies fall down the drain (If I had a nickel for every multi battle where I had a team centered around heavy rain and my partner brings 2 fire types into the mix...)

I was aware of that, but had been hoping it would automatically boost any transferred ones, since it was a base state change... But that's probably unlikely, huh?

I'm fine with one-on-ones...

Just don't name him Elvis. All my Nidokings are named Elvis.

Well now I need to know why.

Mine would probably just get named Tahtorak again.

Until someone with the Japanese Bank and transfer can verify or it comes out in the states, I guess we're all in the dark...

And that's great.

Try reentering your internet settings in your 3DS.
