Where are you guys at on your Heart Gold/Soul Silver playthrough?

Redesigned my team for Elite Four. Didn't sleep last night trying to get specific Hidden Power types for my pokes. Oh I love the man who tells your pokemon's HP power. EDIT: Not for competitive battling

lv45Gengar@ Life Orb
T-Bolt
Focus Blast
HP: Fire
Shadow Ball

lv45Espeon@ Life Orb
Psychic
HP: Ground
Signal Beam
Calm Mind

lv50Staraptor@ Shell Bell (To heal off Brave Bird's damage, more useful than Leftovers)
Brave Bird
Return
U-Turn
Close Combat

lv54Glaceon@ Choice Scarf
Ice Beam
Blizzard
Aqua Tail
HP: Thunder for Aerodactyl/Charizard


Took me atleast 2 hours per pokemon ._.
Had help from my friend for most of the items.

Bro, the Elite Four isn't that hard.

Rematch.

16 Badges
Sweeped through the entire game with my Dowsing machine.
Caught all the Unown.
Pogeys are 60+.
All phone numbers.
210 Pokemon caught.

Only thing left to do is to 5 star my trainer card, fill up the Pokeathelon/Battle Frontier and finish MAH POKEDECKS.

Got acces to the third room (Potential room?) in the Pokéathlon. Also got a pretty big streak (26, first time I've tried it, so I still call that big) with Electivire in the Battle Hall, but then I got caught by Dig (I used a Choice Band). When I retried I managed to defeat the stuff that used Dig on me(now using a Life Orb) just to get defeated by a Dugtrio using Earthquake. Any suggestions for a good Battle Hall Pokémon?

Decided to reorganize my boxes a bit. I still have room for 387 more (thank you milk hating/allergic Bill with your sister that can't wink) so it wasn't really needed, but still.

Also, I found the king of the shorts wearing youngsters in the battle tower. Or that's what he calls himself.

Any suggestions for a good Battle Hall Pokémon?

Anything that has good Attack/Special Attack, and good coverage. If it's fast, give it a Focus Sash and you're almost guaranteed two hits. If it's slow, give it a Choice item (usually Scarf). Keep in mind that you can swap the Pokemon you're using as long as it's the same species, so if you need certain moves for certain types switch it up.

example:
Togekiss @ Choice Scarf
- Hyper Beam
- Aura Sphere
- Air Slash
- Shadow Ball

I'm using (still working on making this)
Infernape @ Focus Sash
- Close Combat
- Stone Edge
- Grass Knot
- Overheat

but i'll probably need Mach Punch over Stone Edge for some of it.

Got the time to work on SS again, so I started training my team again.
I'm glad Natu actually got to 40 before, because I'm slowly getting annoyed by it getting killed so fast. Same for Delibird but for him it's normal. x_x

Current team:
-Delibird, lv 45.
-Natu, lv 45
-Dunsparce, lv 46
-Ledian, lv 46

Aiming for everyone lv 47 before I take on the Eon-family.

Paused my Battle Frontier attempts(still going to do the Battle Tower with my Tyranitar/Garchomp/Lucario sandstorm team for BP) to train up a Swellow. But I want Brave Bird so I have to train up a male Staraptor first(just checked Serebii and found out I should've kept it as Starly). It's probably going to be something like this:

Swellow @ Flame Orb
252 Att / 4 HP/Def(depends on HP IV) / 252 Spd
-Facade
-Brave Bird
-U-Turn
-Protect/Steel Wing

Pretty much the first Smogon set, but Swellow doesn't really seem to have a lot of options so I just went with it, just going to have to choose between Protect and Steel Wing.

Where can I grind to get my team to ~45, I just beat Clair, and Lyra won't let me get to Victory Road because she is a peach, and got raped by Umbreon and realized I will not do that again until my Espeon, Meganium, Gengar, Dragonair, and Ampharos are above the Kimono Girls. Ho-Oh will be my last pogey to fill up the flying/fire type.

Personally, I set my money at mom and challenged the Kimono Girls a few times just because trainers give a bit more EXP. If you didn't try Mt. Mortar yet (Because you get Waterfall in the Ice Cave, you might not have explored that part) you can explore there, Gravlers, Seakings and Machokes all over the place. (About lv 32, so it's okay I guess.)

Theres a patch of grass behind the first waterfall you see in Safari zone with lvl 3x miltanks, ditto, fearow, noctowls and spearows.

I got plenty of lucky eggs from my friend who was catching hell loads of chanseys and it was sweet exp.

Changed my clock to wednesday evening to train my Swellow to Lv.100, I'm at Lv.89 right now. I wish HP would decrease/increase at a faster rate because 10HP/second is slow as hell.

I'm stuck at the Elite 4. I'm annoyed.

Guess I'll have to keep grinding the first two members until I can take on the last two.

That would mean it takes over a minute to kill a Blissey.

Retired the team I used to beat the game and I'm now in the process of EV training a real team.

SO MUCH FUN.

EV training

I knew something wasn't right when you came back


I never imagined this, though...

it's too difficult

Do I mock you for making spreadsheets, miss?

I only EV train because my cousin likes to battle a lot, and he does it as well. Makes for fun times.

It really does.

Proving you don't have to be a tourneyfag to take control of your Pokemon's stats.

Doing anything in Maplestory is more tedious.

Currently hunting for Munchlax in Winner's Path.

Just beat battle hall lady with my lucario. Probably going to post it up on the wi-fi room thing. Though it was ridiculously easy.
