well, I beat the elite 4. about 25 revives, 30 hyper potions, and 20 full restores later...

My team:

Vanilluxe lv 56
Reshiram lv 51
Gothorita lv 36
Conkeldurr lv 54
Samurott lv 43
Lampent lv 52

lol my Gothorita beat the first battle after the elite four by itself. It was a level 60-something Croagunk.

I'm probably not going to train Reshiram right now.

Nimbasa City Gym + Amulet Coin = MAKE IT MAKE MONEY!

I just reached Opelucid City. My current team:

Sigilyph L42
Eelektross L41
Leavanny L42
Vanillish L40
Seismitoad L42
Lampent L41

In rotation:
Scrafty L40

Just caught Pawniard, I might use him for my Steel type, even though I already have a Dark type.

I've seen 104 Pokemon, obtained 59.

Edit: Wow Chewy, you pretty much kept the first 6 pokemon you caught and have been beefing them up huh,

Found my first shiny in Black. I wouldn't have noticed until the game set off the biggest fireworks display ever (exaggeration). It was a Gothita. It went from purple to.... magenta.

Lucario has a regular animation of bobbing back and forth but in a battle, she's shaking her ass at me. Eww.

Lopunny lets you know that it has arms now in the most effeminate pose ever.

Lugia looks angry/derpy.

Dragonite looks derpy.

Transferring pokes is amusing unless you're porting entire boxes over.

I'm currently resetting for Zorua and Zoroark natures and IV's.

---

I have about 12 boxes to port over, all kanto/johto pokemon, and a few from hoenn/sinnoh. I'm not looking forward to it.

---

It would be a million times better if they just ported over. They really did not have to make some damn mini game out of it.

---

Sheesh! Herdier's Take Down is too powerful and a major league pain in my butt.

I found a shiny Watchhog .w.

---

My team:

Chandelure lv 62
Conkeldurr lv 58
Samurott lv 44
Kyurem lv 76
Vanilluxe lv 61
Gothorita lv 36

i have some work to do on the stupid otter and lolita.

Also, I used my master ball on Kyurem oops.

Edit: I'm probably not going to keep Kyurem on my team. It's just there for little insurance since I'm still under-leveled. Also, I'm starting a game on white with Tepig sometime in the near future.

Edit yet again

made some progress.

Gothitelle lv 46
Chandelure lv 64

everything else is the same

I caught my first shiny. Route 18.

---

Yes, I try to give my Scrafty a Quick Claw and upped his attack specifically because I was tired of Soutland taking out 2 of my pokemon before I took him down. BAH!


Anyways, facing the Elite Four now. Took out the Ghost leader without a problem. My team:

Scrafty L45
Chandelure L46
Seismitoad L45
Leavanny L45
Eelektroiss L45
Vanillish L46

Out of rotation:

Siliglyph L46

Finally beat Lenora last night thanks to a little help from Throh. Just finished up taking care of some plasma grunts in the pinwheel forest and now I'm on my way to Castilia City.

My Team so far

Wattotter lvl 16
Pansear lvl 17
Purrloin lvl 17
Blitzle lvl 17
Pidove lvl 18
Timburr lvl 22

update : now boosting my party's level in order to defeat drayden.
any recommend or tricks to defeat his dragons?
for now i have fraxure, eelektross, chandelure, unfezant (M), seismitoad, and... oh, serperior
my backup : virizion and cobalion... i think i'm not using krookodile anymore, since my boyfriend said it's not powerful enough to withstand E4.
...and damn, my boyfriend caught virizion on his FIRST TRY. what a luck!

Grindin~

Hey Cheren~ How's about you don't challenge me when I only have one pokemon and when I'm running to the pokemon center jerkface :C!

Tentative team

Vanilish LV 39
Samurott LV 42
Klank LV 40
Sawk LV 40
That...thing that evolved into Unfeazant at LV 31 (whoops~)

---

If any of your pokemon have Ice type attacks then those would be your best bet and make sure your pokemon are at a lvl slightly higher than your opponets so they will be able to with stand counter attacks.

Picked up Rebecca Pokemon Black on Friday. Chose Oshawatt as my starter. Got the trio badge. Further news as events warrant.

Really liking it so far, although having your Friends/Rivals challenging you to battles every three seconds is a little annoying.

---

But think about it this way DJ, you'll be able to record all 3 starters and their evolutions in the pokedex as opposed to 2 of the 3 in previous games.

@bmhedgehog : okay, now i'm boosting my cubchoo and try to evolve it
anyway, which one is better : vanillite or cryogonal?

---

ok they are both Ice type pokemon.

For Vanillite which should be a Vanillish by now, but i think its ok to leave it unevolved cause Vanillite learns Blizzard @ lvl 49 as opposed to lvl 53 with Vanillish and lvl 59 with Vanilluxe or if you have tm 14 Blizzard you can teach it right away. (well thats awkward it learns Blizzard at those lvls yet you can teach it before hand, i think if your going to learn it by lvling then there is no need to teach it way to go gamefreak )

For Cryogonal should have Ice Beam by now which is learned @ lvl 33. It doesn't learn any more Ice attacks until lvl 61, though i think it might be hard for you to lvl up to that point. Again if you have tm14 Blizzard you can teach it.

At this point since I don't know your current lvls of both pokemon. I would have to say keep Vanillish (evolve or not, thats up to you) and teach it Blizzard (either by lvling or tm), but stat wise I'd go with Cryogonal cause of the DEF and SP. DEF pts.

Update Wattotter (oshawott) is now a dewott!

whoever made that minigame for the dreamworld eeveelutions is a fucking retard
