Got my sister a copy of LeafGreen for Christmas so I can get a lot of older monsters from her and my old games. I'll join in this endeavor once I have all the items in Animal Crossing. Should be easier than in older games despite the larger number thanks to the GTS.

Yo, Pokepal148, I'm really happy for you, I'ma let you finish, but Khushrenada has one of the best collecting threads of all time! One of the best threads of all time!

I'm taking this endeavor in chunks and am now focused on the central pokedex. Let's do this,

So far I have around 100 of the little buggers from the central dex registered leaving me with mostly evolutions to deal with. Meaning I have to try to train everything up and find a bunch of evolution stones. I'm going to ask that any trades people offer to me focus on those Pokemon under the evolution catagory of the map.

Right now I have a shiny kecleon that I will likely use as a bargaining chip for some other likely legendary Pokemon

I finally got back to this whole thing after a brief hiatus and I will say training for evolutions is the most tedious part of all of this. Right now I'm just using the gts to will in around 30 or so loose ends..

Did you ever get in contact with Art_de_cat about this? I noticed the other day on Backloggery that he mentioned having a complete pokedex. He might be your best bet to help you out.

I won't mind helping you with some of the rarer event Pokemon, if you want them in your Dex. Jirachi, Mew, Manaphy, etc. I can trade you them to fill the Dex, then you trade them back. Let me know if you're still hunting for these.

I now have central kalos completed, coastal kalos is coming along pretty smoothly (I think the 3 legendary birds are in that one, I'll need zapdos and articuno data from one of the many generous people who are not reading this atm. ;)

Yeah, I never liked the wandering legendaries thing.  I'd rather just find and catch 'em in cave or wherever.

I really ought to just put together a capture team.

Ok let me see here, because Ruby was my first pokemon game that I seriously got into I have decided that I will not return to the hoenn region for Alpha Ruby untill the pokedex is complete in what I feel is an effective way to prevent me from getting addicted to animal crossing again a sort of poetic journey type thing.

Now I don't have B/W or B/W2 which means I'm cut off from my copy of Heart Gold as far as Legendary Pokemon are concerned. And right now I'm reaching the point where I should start worrying about those.

When do you come across the birds? I'll get Articuno if you can only get one of them.
Post game, wandering. Which one you get is based on your starter.

It's actually worse then wandering, it's like a scripted thing where they wander around like before but you have no way to trap them, it's some sort of bad cinematic thing where it's like

'Wild moltres appeared'
*camera pans around for some reason*
Wild moltres fled.

And then after 13 rounds of that it hides in some cave somewhere.

I have been contemplating starting over on Black since I stalled there and X has motivated me to go back and so I could get you copies of pokemon from Black and HeartGold. My sister has White and SoulSilver so I could get those for you through her. Give me a list and I'll see what she has.

Heart gold gets me alot of legendary Pokemon. Let's see,

Raikou and Entei can be found wandering around Johto, I'd say use a dugtrio or something to trap them(they both know roar, I just checked, so it would be a bit of a waste to spend a turn using mean look when you could be throwing more balls.)

Suicune has its own little side thing going for it.

Ho-oh and Lugia are fairly easy to get as well.

Groudon and Kyogre can be found in some tower using the red orb and blue orb (groudon's only in SS, Kyogre is in HG.)

If you have both of them in your party you can talk to someone and he'll give you the jade orb so you can get Rayquaza.

Latios and latias both roam around in kanto based on which version you have.

I as mentioned above, haven't played B/W so here

I added a WIP list of the little rascals but I still have to finish crossreferencing what I have listed with what I have in the pokedex.

Gen 6 is complete as far as listing what I have/don't but I still need to double check on the others.

So what is the number of Pokemon you have now?  Which game are you saving them into?  Are you using any sort of backup since it is such a crazy endeavor? 

What Pokemon do you like for your teams?

Which generation is your favorite?

The dex is at around 499 but with how many Pokemon I have close to evolving (just got a dusclops) it's sure to change.

I don't do showdown tbh, prefer the real deal Pokemon experience over some simulation. especially now that about half my team is iv bred/trained. Seriously I have like 8 boxes worth of baby larvitar and charmander just chilling in the bank.

S/O to Triforcebun for hooking me up with about half of the legendaries. That trading and a few previous evolutions has gotten me to 529 Pokemon caught.

update 530, someone accepted my chansey offer on the GTS. Slakoth get

Why not just make your team in showdown? Its a quick an easy way to show me how good you think you are ( ;) ) without me having to go buy X and spend a month making my team.

I missed that you needed a Mew. And I could get some of the legendaries from Pokemon Black, but I hate Unova so much. I swear I had a Raikou, Entei, Kyurem, Zekrom, and Virizion, but for one reason or another, they were missing.

I'm now at 550 with only one Pokemon away from having gen 6 complete.

And I'm getting rather annoyed with how difficult it is to get moon and dusk stones in this game.

At this point I'm using the stupid baloon popper thing on PGL to try and get some evolution items.

You should do it. A re-make is always better than the original and usually helps correct some flaws. For instance, a lot of people consider Wind Waker HD to be better than Wind Waker GC thanks to the swift sail. Plus, what else are you going to spend your money on? Brown's playoff tickets?

3rd gen is when I began to stop caring about Pokemon as much and I had Emerald edition. I personally plan on picking it up some time next year because of how much X/Y re-energized me to the series. If you are teetering now, I push to buy it. The new series changes applied to what I felt was one of the worse generations could turn Alpha/Omega into one of the greats.

It's true. I own nearly every Pokémon game but have only played a third of LeafGreen. I bought them all because I got them for $20.00 bucks or less and Pokémon games keep their resale value. It's why I haven't gotten a copy of FireRed and finally started playing through the series.

I still have yet to play X despite owning it at launch, so I'm in no hurry for Omega or Alpha yet. At the same time I don't have much free time to devote to such a huge endeavor that Pokemon can be. Getting any kind of competitive team is out of my realm of understanding and possibility, so... I was going somewhere with this. Can't remember where. No smart ass comment from me either.

This calls for darastic measures.

As much as the OR/AS legend spam appeals to me Pokemon White 2 along with the Dream Radar will cover every non event legendary I need except for Deoxys who is no longer an event Pokemon due to the release of ORAS.

I think it was Triforce Hermit who got me that Zekrom which I appreciate.

Man the dream radar takes a while to get going.

Ok new plan, ORAS have tornadus and thunderus as version exclusive for whatever reason so we use the dream radar to get tornadus and then play through White 2 and try to clean out unova before going on that well earned nostalgia trip through Alpha Sapphire to snag whatever's left.

Man, the bloody museum gift shop will not offer me the last item I need. I've gone through 15 game days and the Underwater wall has still not come up for sale for me. I've had every other wall the museum sells offered to me a couple times over. Why can't the underwater wall come up along with the others? Lousy Celeste. So much for booking it. Of course, maybe if I hadn't left my 3DS at work on Thursday and hadn't gone straight to bed on Friday and slept away the rest of that evening, then maybe I would have gotten it on time after all. But that's just excuses. I said I'd get them all and I didn't and I don't feel like playing another hour to try and come up with it. Guess we'll see what happens tomorrow.

We could take this to the AC League thread as I mention it there. However, to help bump up the post count of this thread, I will answer it here.

You need to donate every type of fish to the museum. (You may need to donate every type of deep sea creature as well. I forget. It's been awhile since I looked that up.) I finally did that and completed my museum. Completing the museum unlocks the Museum Model for furniture and I've had that thing show up twice already in the same timeframe since I donated the last fish but no underwater wall yet.

That just means that my gold badge quest is the greater challenge and when I accomplish it, I will have pulled off one of the greatest gaming challenges ever.  8)

Really?!?!?

Seriously Nintendo, just introduce a utility for bank to allow you to transfer pokemon directly between games without having to access the web using some cache storage on the system itself to temporarily store the 2kb Pokemon data. It's that easy! You have less load on the servers and everything!

And don't try to say it's my fault because I've never had this issue before but since Christmas the Bank has been a huge pain and honestly it's a bit annoying.

However, from What I've heard in ORAS you can get a certificate that you can actually display in your secret base if you have them all. Thus the time has come to go for the Living Dex which shall take me on a long hard journey to... mostly hatch a bunch of eggs...

*goes through bank to gather one specimen of every Pokemon I have that is native to the Hoenn region and arrange them in numerical order according to species order and dump that on the alpha sapphire copy, with gaps for whatever I'm missing.*

I can actually use the Bank to dump everything I have right now to Alpha Sapphire save, and send them back and those Pokemon will have been registered as obtained in Alpha Sapphire so with that done the plan is to use Dexnav as a checklist so I can whittle down whatever Pokemon I don't have right now. The plan is to complete the hoenn Dex this way but if a random non hoenn mon decides to come by while I'm doing this then that's fine by me.

Right, after some delay (I blame Xenoblade) I now have every pokemon introduced in generation 3 sitting in a few boxes.

Also a small thanks to lucariofan, I wound up using your friend safari to nab a phanpy to put in the bank. I could certainly have done it without you but I appreciate it all the same. Now if only we could get Khushy's friend safari to offer something somewhat useful,

Basically your friend code generates a thing called a friend safari so because I'm friends with you there is a friend safari created in your name.

Each safari can have up to 3 pokemon (If said friend has X or Y and connects with you or something you get the third one,) and yours has come up with an Abra and an Espurr.

So funfact: the Tyranitar I use in my team is actually I.V. bred. This means I have 3 boxes worth of Larvitar with 2-4 perfect I.V.s,

Larvitar is actually somewhat of a commodity at the moment because in Gen 6 he's almost entirely exclusive to Pokemon Y. So those three boxes are incredibly useful as trading fodder for stuff that would normally be somewhat annoying to find.

Meanwhile i've mapped out what I need from Gen 4 and... Oh good lord that's a lot of stuff I'm missing. Now I recently acquired a copy of platinum that I could use for that but most of it can be gotten by other means and....

Hold on, I still have a master ball in my abandoned Heart Gold playthrough don't I... Yeah, I do, I pretty much always end up hoarding those things.

With most of my team in that game having been transferred to later games (of particular note, an Umbreon I was using there actually wound up getting transferred to Platinum because it's bulky and can learn mean look which is of immense use to me for the post game bird hunt.) I don't exactly have enough of my main mons left to clear through Kanto which makes that save relatively useless because I can't use that to get the legendary birds.

Except I can use the Master Ball to nab myself a Lugia so I suppose there's that silver lining.

If you didn't play the games when they released, it's hard to understand their appeal. To anyone that didn't, it might feel like they're missing something, but for those that played it on release, every game since has added things that make the original experience better.

HeartGold and SoulSilver possess abilities and the physical/special split, as well as the running shoes and Pokemon following mechanic (which is really lovely, despite having little use), and in that way, it's the closest to "modern" Pokemon you can get. But Gold and Silver before it were the definitive trek through Kanto, to me, despite the region being smaller.

In terms of regions having "character", I would agree that Sinnoh has the most personality. Mt. Coronet might be a massive obstacle that splits the world in two (or three, really), but it is this feature that you constantly return to and gain new ways of traversing, and finally reaching its peak feels like a very great accomplishment, in terms of the franchise. While the water of Hoenn felt more like a nuisance because of its size (and the ridiculousness of Dive), Coronet was just a big feature. Not to mention, the different areas around Coronet had tons of variety and personality in themselves. It didn't feel like these massive, inexplicable terrain differences- the Northern region was predictably snowy, the Western region was tame and flowery, and the Eastern region was a mix of marshland and shores.

Man, I want to go back and play those games.

I wound up importing the Lapras I was using in my HG file along with the Snorlax you find in that game to try and help myself out here.

There's a reason I'm concerned about Cynthia and it's because of this:



Six pokemon with amazing offensive coverage and, to make matters worse a perfect set of I.V.s.

Just for the sake of comparison, none of the Pokemon I use in online battles in Omega Ruby have a perfect set of I.Vs because my only two I.V. bred pokemon, Charizard and Tyranitar, both focus entirely on physical attacks so it just isn't practical to give them perfect I.Vs in Special attack.

My point is, I know first hand the kind of difference having perfect I.V.s has on your pokemon and that frightens me.

Snorlax wound up learning thunder punch from a shard tutor to deal with Milotic but Lucario still presents a problem to me because my usual counter for it is the Charizard I'm using which will just get nuked to oblivion with stone edge.

I'll have to find the TM for Earthquake and teach it to my Scizor.

Lapras and Charizard should be able to handle Garchomp, that Togekiss can be clipped by both Snorlax and Lapras, and I still have Empoleon and my own Roserade to back me up if needed. Spiritomb I'll just have to try and power my way through. With proper leveling I should be able to handle this.

I also need to keep an eye on the Shinnoh regional dex because I need to get that filled in order to get the legendary birds to start roaming.

And yes, I did trade myself a charmander at the start of the game, deal with it.

The AI in platinum got significant buffs from D/P from what I've heard and I've seen more then enough evidence to believe it (they will abuse any type advantage they can, average trainers will switch out on me quite frequently, etc.)

Basically I'm preparing for the worst.

The issue is the team I have has been repeatedly proven to have glaring issues in some of the game's tougher fights.

Although I'm having no such issues catching Azelf and Uxie. Roserade use stun spore, Scizor use false swipe, go dusk ball, done deal.

Anyways, with those two taken care of it's time to send some of my team to Heart Gold so they can earn ludicrous amounts of boosted experience taking on some Kanto Gyms for me. At this rate people might start thinking I'm not mostly just making it up as I go. :D

I don't know about that. Heaviest bug (Scolipede), awesome fighting duo (well, really more Sawk than Throh), personal favorite Zoroark, zero-weakness Elektross, and awesome Galvantula!

But everything else sucked. Especially the legendaries. The alternate forms of the Djinni trio saved them somewhat, but the four musketeers were stupid looking. I would argue that Gen 5 or Gen 6 have the worst designs. Only a handful of both Gens' Pokemon have great usefulness, but Gen 6 just has a lot of stupid Fairy types that don't look so great. Likewise, Garbador and Vanilluxe are crimes against humanity.

A lot of designs I newly discovered and like are actually from Gen 4/5. Since I kind of lost interest in Pokemon during that time I can see how I glossed over the entire generation and missed some of the better monsters.

Yeah, with most of the legendaries down I can basically focus on hatching eggs and a bit of evolution to get what I need. Kanto and Johto are now completely clear.

It's interesting because all this time I've still been accepting battle challenges and, long story short my main competitive team is basically setup to basically try to cripple an opposing team enough that my Charizard can come in late in the game and preform a lategame sweep because I already destroyed anything that my opponent has to try and counter it.

However apparently random bottlers have realized how threatening the move Stealth Rock can be because it's a move that I've seen alot of people try to use against me, and for those who don't know, Stealth Rock is a move that when you use it, causes any pokemon your opponent switches in to lose a certain percentage of it's health based on how much of a resistance that pokemon has to rock type attacks.

Charizard's Fire/Flying typing has a 4x weakness to rock type attacks which means it loses up to 50% of it's health upon entry. That's a bit of a problem.

It's definitely a problem but it isn't one that I wasn't aware of. The move Defog can be used to counter Stealth Rock and is also an HM in platinum so I made sure to have a Scyther learn it and then had it transferred up along with the Shinnoh Legendaries (well technically it was transferred up with Lugia because it wouldn't let me transfer that Scyther from platinum because Defog is an HM move there) because for whatever reason Scyther can pass on Defog as an egg move which is really handy because I happen to have it's evolved form, Scizor on my main team.

Also I should mention that the Scyther I transferred up happened to have a Perfect I.V. in Attack.

Long story short I know what I'll be doing when I'm done here.

I admire your tenacity. And the fact that you have a nice competitive team. I try to break expectations rather than embrace them, myself. I skipped on ORAS so I don't have some of the new Megas that I'd like to try, but in X and Y, my team was structured as such:
Granbull with Def/HP EVs, used primarily for walling and thunder waving, with chip damage here and there.
Flygon for scouting and Earthquakes. Can he learn Dragon Tail? I feel like that would drastically increase his viability. So would a Mega, of course...
Entry Hazard Scolipede with Swarm for an extra salty Megahorn before passing out.
Mega Abomasnow for maximum pain. Destroying folks with Ice Shard and Blizzard never felt so good.
The fifth slot would swing between a very solid Electivire with good type coverage and a Lucario for breaking Fairy walls.
The Sixth slot, however, was always a Zoroark. The mind games, they are my favorite. Zoroark is one of my favorite Pokemon because of that neat ability.

Somewhat, but the main source for that (at least for singles, which I prefer) is from smogon which, while I respect what they do, I kinda have this let peeve over them that, you know what, let me just show it to you.

Here is Blissy's analysis thing. Notice the number of times the move Wish is used in their moveset because there is something special about that.

You see there is only one way to legitimately get a Blissy with Wish and that is to go to the Pokemon Center Store in New York between the dates December 16, 2004, and January 2, 2005 with a copy of Fire Red and Leaf Green and receive a special egg that contains a Chansey that knows Wish... if that egg doesn't hatch into one of the other 5 pokemon that were in that distribution.

Or here's one, about The Best Defoggers in The 6th Generation Metagame, only two of which you can actually have learn Defog in a 6th Gen Game, and one of those two (My main man Scizor, woot woot) requires you to transfer a Pokémon from a previous generation as I did that can pass on Defog as an Egg Move. It's not that they don't know this, heck, they outright admit that Mandibuzz is the only pokemon there that could learn Defog before the Bank released, it's just that for whatever reason they choose to ignore it.

In Gen 6 gamefreak requires that pokemon used in any ranked modes/tournaments have originated from a Gen 6 game and it's a move I agree with. A Pokémon should be viable in the current metagame because of the moves it can learn in the game's associated with said metagame, not because of a move it can leare from some one-use tutor in FR/LG.

It's just something that kinda bugs me.

I've only gone on to Smogon a few times for advice on movesets, but I've never encountered those sorts of entries (mostly because who uses Blissey and Defog is dumb, no, I jest). But I do think your claim is valid, but with the inclusion of the RBY Pokebank shenanigans, we'll be seeing the emergence of some strange Pokemon in competitive play for Sun and Moon. I mean, especially because of the transfer up from Gen 1 to Gen 6 mechanics- what sort of abilities will these Pokemon have, and whatnot? But while transferring up used to be a nice way of keeping your steady collection, I think it should really only serve that purpose, and shouldn't factor into competitive play. I liken it to fighting games- patches, or new versions come out and make the old builds obsolete for a reason.

From May 11-17 you can download a Shiny Xerneas, and from May 20-26 you can get Shiny Yveltel!

Nevermind then. I guess Game Freak decided to bail me out on this one. Thanks guys.

Tornadus is a bit of a pain to get. you get him by having both Thundurus and Landorus
in your party and going to certain locations in B/W or ORAS. The problem is in ORAS the Thundurus and Landorus you use to get Tornadus have to come from ORAS so even though I have both Thundurus and Landorus the game won't recognize them as valid because they both came from Black and White and I can't send them back to Black and White to trigger the event either.

You can get all three by using Pokemon Dream Radar but that requires me to play a reskin of Face Raiders.

So the original plan was to use Pokemon Dream Radar to get a Thundurus and use it along with the Landorus I could get in Pokemon Black to trigger the event but the Thundurus I got from Dream Radar can't be traded over unless I find out where they I need to go to revert it to its original form because the ones from Dream Radar came in a special form that isn't in B/W1.

Well... I suppose I could at least get a Dream Ball Togepi from the Dream Radar. That's nice I guess.

Actually it's interesting you bring that up. Basically we can expect every pokemon who is introduced in Sun and Moon to show up in Sun and Moon so thus maintaining a Living Dex should be simple enough. Remember the entire living part of this adventure was run from my Omega Ruby save file which is the main reason that Gen 3 went down so easily.

Honestly a lot of the more annoying stuff is from the fact that if you aren't good at the more advanced super training minigames you're somewhat low on options to get the more rare evolutionary stones.

Who needs help catching Pokemon?

I have at least 2 of every Pokemon outside of certain mythical Pokemon that are only giveaways. I keep one set of the 720 Pokemon in Pokemon bank and one set on my Pokemon Y. If something should happen to one or the other at least I have them all elsewhere.

I have Sturdy Tyrant with Dragon Dance and Marvel Scale Dratini with Extreme Speed. Both of these Pokemon are fairly difficult to get because you can't just get them in game. If I give you one, then you have a great tool to constantly trade for almost anything you need in the future. Got 2 Heartens, a Zekrom, Reshiram, Crecelia and all kinds of great stuff from these two Pokemon.

I think I may try to fill out my 'dex towards the end of the summer.  Gonna convert my Y team to a capture team.  I'll post here if I need anything.  I think I'll try to do it by getting one region at a time.

So it's been a bit so I might as well go back to this. I caught all the Ultra Beasts except the ones that are exclusive to Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and I only have two of the Tapus Wonder Trading my gen 6 breeding rejects has filled a lot of spots in my Dex (and it got me a jolly magikarp with perfect IVs) and other than that I'm good to go. Compared to the massive undertaking that was doing a living dex from the start just capping off the newguys is more like minor housekeeping than anything.

That's awesome!

I think I'll have less going on IRL this upcoming summer, so I think I'll try and do a living 'dex.  With Gens 1 and 2 on the 3DS, I think I should be good through the first 3 gens.  Plus, I want an excuse to play through Gold and Silver a time or two.

Re: Apparently there are 800 and something pokemon now: Now with more ribbons.
« Reply #150 on: December 09, 2020, 09:53:56 PM »
I just have to breed some stuff to get a full living dex for gen 8 but since I don't hate myself enough already apparently, I have taken on another stupid hardcore Pokemon challenge.

There are these things called ribbons that you get that are a sort of quasi achievement system. You get them for doing things like winning contests or getting win streaks at the battle tower and they're tied to the Pokemon you used to complete those tasks so they can be transferred between games. There's a so called "Ribbon Master" community that tries to get as many ribbons as possible on a single pokemon.

Now let me tell you a story. My first shiny Pokemon (I'm assuming anyone who read this far knows what a shiny pokemon is but they're the ones that are different colors from regular Pokemon and have fancy star effects when they come out of the ball) was a dratini in Firered's save file. Sadly I lost that save file but since I have an everdrive I can get that dratini back and evolve it into a beautiful green Dragonite and since it was caught in the Safari Zone, it is in a Safari Ball which is a nice bit of synergy in terms of coloration. I've gotten really picky

So using the power of cheating, I have reclaimed my shiny dratini and now it shall become a beautiful dragonite that will get all of the ribbons and we will all live happily ever after.

I did Mt. Battle in XD: Gale of Darkness to get the Earth Ribbon and today I finished the contests in Ruby as well as the level 50 battle tower ribbon, the art ribbon, the one you get for beating the elite 4, and the effort ribbon so now I just need to do the level 100 battle streak thingy to get that ribbon and I can move on to Gen 4.

Contests are an interesting beast. The first round is something I'll get to in a second when I  but the second round is an interesting system where you try to get as many points as possible while screwing over your teammates. It's actually a really interesting system and I'm definitely curious to see how it gets iterated on in DPPT and ORAS. The problem with it is that it takes forever. The first round is a good minute or two of just mashing through text and the second round feels like it drags on forever. It's just a drag and it ruins what should otherwise be a fun little side mode.

My other issue with contests is that it repurposes your existing moveset for contests. It's really difficult to get a moveset that works for both contests and battles and I didn't want to do any more cheating for this beyond what I had to do to get the dratini and it's two cohorts (a Snorlax and a Metagross) for the battle tower so I was basically trying to make things work with what I had.

There is a ribbon for doing wi-fi multi battles in Gen 4's battle tower/battle frontier so if you are interested in getting a 50 battle streak in the battle tower I'm down for that.
