WOAH! I love the animated squirtle. I have heard people saying pokemon is for little kids, and I'm almost 18 so that would make me too old by many people's standards lol. I don't care though.

Eh, I just ignore it. It's not a fact or anything that it's a child's game, especially when you study the meta-game.

I know, there is so much strategy in it a little kid can't comprehend it. Heck I can barely form a decent strategy lol. It takes a lot of determination too with the EVs.

Added after 4 minutes:

I kinda wanna make a countdown timer for the U.S. release date of pokemon black and white once it's announced.

EVs are simple, especially after people post EV spreads for whatever role the pokemon takes up. It's the IVs which cause problems for people. Coupled with the fact that a beneficial nature is required for maximum effectiveness, it gets frustrating, leading to the use of cheating devices.

A lot of gamers perceive high level gameplay as nothing more than Hyper Beam spamming with legendaries, which may also explain why the game is often undermined.

They are simple, but actually getting the Evs takes a while.

At first.

I usually store something with pokerus in the PC, to "infect" who I want. Plus, the new training items from D/P/Ptt speed things up. But if you have a huge party to train, then it does get pretty boring. :/

Yeah. IV breeding is even worse.

On another topic. I haven't played a lot of DS games, but out of the ones I have, none of them compare to pokemon black and white graphics. How are the graphics when compared to other DS games.

Cheater. Jk, maybe you are just lucky

I love college because (at least if you are a computer science major) it is apparently ok to like pok?mon again, whereas it seemed to not be that way before...

Lol I have a bunch of old level 100's, some of which aren't even EV trained. My problem is that I have the brute force, but I haven't done much to make sure my pok?mon complement each other with good strategy in battle.

Pok?mon's pretty awesome. Can't wait for Black and White. ^_^

I only have one Lvl. 100 and one Shiny. Lvl. 100 Blaziken from all the way back when Ruby was new, and a shiny Zigzagoon. As for EV training, I do it sometimes, then take a break and lose the paper I was keeping track of the EVs on. I don't even bother with IVs :\ then again, the most competitive play I do is against my brother or best friend.

I got HeartGold when it first came out, didn't beat the Elite 4 until July, and i have yet to actually beat Red.

Lastly, I constantly feel out of place in my Grade. All of them are either shouting random Modern Warfare 2 lines or battling 360 vs. PS3. Needless to say, Pok?mon is completely not "in".

Think that covers my stand on everything discussed so far.

I have a few shinies, but only one of them was caught by pure dumb luck (you know, with the 1/(however many thousand) chance.) The others were caught using the Diamond/Pearl chaining method. The pure luck one was a zubat still haven't trained the thing

EVs and IVs are something you should search up yourself imo. Some sites have lengthy articles explaining every detail . But to sum it up:

EVs are values gained through battle experience and IVs are predetermined values. Generally, the higher the value, the stronger the pokemon's stats become. Gamefreak set a limit on the EVs though, so that one pokemon could only carry 510 EVs with a max of 255 per stat.

IVs are also used to determine Hidden Power values such as its type and power.

The reason we're "too old" for Pokemon, is because of that stupid TV series. I've seen episodes of it before, and it's made for like a four year old. Everyones constantly happy, and it's freakin' ridicolous. Paul may be a jerk, but I like him the most, because he's not stupid.

There are 650 confirmed pokemon with generation 5.

By the way, the fighting type legendary trio has finally been revealed. They kinda loom like antelopes.

Oh gawwwd. I can't wait for B&W. What version is everybody planning on getting? And what starter do you think you'll choose?

I'm definitely getting Black, because Reshiram is fire type, and my favorite type is fire type. And of course I'm going to choose the fire-starter.

Wow. I sounded like a little kid right there. I prolly could've worded myself better. But I'm sleepy.

There's also a flying type trio which resemble genies on clouds. And of course the mascot dragon trio.

The third mascot has yet to be revealed, but is described to be blue-ish in colour, and is Dragon/Ice in typing.

The pseudo-legendary (Dragonite, Tyrantitar, Garchomp) btw, happens to be three headed hydra apparently.

it was probably the inner battery that powers the memory chip, the same thing happened to me with Pokemon Gold :/

Aww that's sad. Back when I used to cheat at pok?mon games, I would make backups of my saves on my computer. Then I stopped cheating and got rid of all my cheated pok?mon. But now I feel vulnerable again.

I guess the best thing is to spread out all your important pok?mon between cartridges so if something happens to one of your cartridges you still have the others. Nintendo should have an "approved" way of backing up pok?mon...

Actually, I hope nintendo handhelds stay with cartridges forever. They seem far superior to me.

I don't think cartridges are necessarily superior. Downloadable stuff has some advantages:
1) You don't have to drive to a store to get it
2) The developers can update their game (fix bugs, add new levels, etc).
3) From Nintendo's perspective, they wouldn't have to pay to have all the cartridges/game boxes made and shipped.

But yeah you're right, they should probably stick to cartridges for now. People tend to ascribe more value to physical stuff, and are willing to pay significantly more for it. Plus, downloadable stuff is only good if you have a reasonably fast internet connection which not everyone does. Not only that, but if you just downloaded everything it would take the fun out of it

I hate the PSP making noise when it loads, really annoying. Another reason I personally like carts.

And I have never had a problem with carts deleting my memory with the GBA/DS. Even my gold still works with it's original battery (quite the feat).

I didn't mean against downloads, but to counter
1) what's so bad about that
2) the 3DS is able to do this and uses cartridges
3) well, this one I can't come up with a good argument against

There are disadvantages for downloads too
1) requires more space on the actual device which could drive cost up (look at the price difference between a 32 gigabyte iPod touch and a 64 gig)

2) downloads could take a lot of timevto download for an actual handheld console game. Sure it's fine for iPhone games, but DS games are significant;y bigger files, and I think 3DS will be bigger still.

3) could be lost if something goes wrong with your device. I just recently lost all of the songs I bought to play on Tap tap revenge

Oh! Yes! You should start a new thread for us to share friend codes. Maybe we could even get a tournament going if enough people are interested.

I'll do that when I get the 3ds! My wifi is stupid WPA and doesn't work with my ds lite. That's another reason I can't wait for the 3ds!

Yeah those are all good points. I hope Nintendo sticks with cartridges actually. But maybe it would be nice to make an app store available for "lesser games" and apps n' stuff that you can just download. Btw, how are cartridge games able to be updated? (Without buying a new cartridge lol)

Or maybe a way to download games if you want to wait and if you don't want to go to a store. and I'm not sure exactly how it works, but the 3DS will be able to remember the 3DS games you play (and maybe pokemon black and white, not sure but it could be a possibility) and stores the info.

I tried doing a search for "friend code" after you said that and that thread was actually kinda far down the list. It really should be a sticky because its cumbersome to find unless you already know its there.

Shoddy only focuses on the competitive battling aspect of Pokemon.
It's more efficient too since you can just make a team there and then. Plus it's great for testing purposes.

I guess, but I like the element of the unknown and uncontrollable IVs in the games.

I'm pretty sure there's a randomize option on there. Though no one's gonna do that, especially if they lust victory.

I don't see an MMO happening anytime soon, simply because hundreds of petitions have been sent directly to Gamefreak with no positive results.

Anyway, the gym leaders have been leaked. I was surprised to find out who the 8th gym leader is. The 6th one, I thought, was rather purtty. :3

DANG IT! I mean come on game freak, it's the only type that has never had a Gym dedicated to it. All the types had gyms by Generation II except dark, and now in Generation V we still don't have a Dark type gym?

I usually look on Bulbapedia. The only other language I can read in is Spanish. I doubt that would help me get news about pokemon black and white.

Actually, it would. Pokexperto seems to get info on the game first, and everything there is in espanol, I believe.

oh really? I will look at it. Thanks Blues. oh and to mention your comment about an MMO earlier. I agree, I don't think it's happening anytime soon. I wish it would though.

I saw the gyms on there. Looks like they are a lot like the Johto Gyms

Yeah Famicon gave them a 10 out of 10 in all 4 areas the judge games on. That has me pretty psyched to get the games. Only the 15th game in Famicon's history to get a perfect score!

That just makes it even harder to wait! I'm almost tempted to play the japanese version, but I've only taken japanese for two years and I don't think I'd be able to understand.

I know it does! I wish they could have been released simultaneously. I have never studied Japanese and I actually want to know the plot when I am playing so I have to wait until spring

Well my birthday is next month and the pokemon games don't come out until next year. So if I wait until my birthday I have to wait from no until october 2011.

Added after 4 minutes:

And since to get to 2011 we have to go through october I will be 18, which means I would have to wait until my 19th birthday if I were to get pokemon black and white on my birthday.

Man, I really want to play my Diamond again but my DS broke because I was stupid enough to lend to a friend who's DS was broken... now my DS is practically broken too x_X. L/R button barely, if ever, work at all, everything is all scratched up and the hinges are barely hanging on. I'm amazed it's still alive.
But I can't play several games fully without the L/R button and a broken screen :< so I hope that the 3DS comes out before Black/White come out in America

I have never seen degrassi, I like suite lif on deck, Suite lif of Zack and Cody was better though. You mean Wizards of Wacerly Place? I love that show. I also like iCarly and Phineas and Ferb. My music taste is a bit wild. I like music from many genres of music but my favorites are pop, rap, and hip hop.

All gens were really good actually. Generation II just gets it's popularity from nostalgia, while generation III is bashed for being in Hoenn and having unpopular pokemon designs.

Emerald will always be in my top 3 though.

Emerald is in my top 3 too. It's tough for me to decide which I like best. Hoenn is my favorite region though.

I just didn't like having to surf through half the game in Ruby. I'll admit that Dive was a cool new feature though, and I'm glad that it's returning. Other than that, the game was more challenging than Diamond/Pearl in terms of trainer battles.

Plus, Emerald's Battle Frontier > all other Battle Frontiers.

See here, Pearl would have been better if for a few things:

- Snow/Hail - Seriously, being realistic is cool, but also super annoying. Having to commit half an hour to walk up to the 7th gym was a pain.
- Better battles - I thought everything was too easy, especially if Chimchar was your starter
- Not a lot of new pokemon - Most of that gen was made up of new evolutions, many of them looking somewhat ugly (I'm looking at you Electivire)

Yeah, that's what I was goin' for.

If Rayquaza, Deoxys, and that new pokemon can live up there, I'm pretty sure there's more.

An underground city would be cool too.

i hate it when people think pokemon games r all the same and dont add anything new besides pokemon
i personally think each 1 adds tons of new stuff to each game and saying pokemon doesnt add anything new is like saying shooters never add anything new

lol shooters do not add anything new is a correct answer!!! pointing the finger at shooters don't make pokemon games feel more original!! i don't like shooters like that, I play fighting games and racers and rpg's!! Pokemon has gotten stale to me, hopefully they can redeem it with B&W!!!

I agree with this. If I ever meet a guy that plays Halo games and then comes along saying that pokemon is the same thing over and over I laugh. Honestly pokemon adds more than shooters seem to.

Added after 17 minutes:

But David has the most viewed thread in the lounge and I am second and third lol. Anyway to get it back to pokemon. Did you guys know that black and white went platinum in japan before it's release dating making them the fastest selling as games ever

Wow, it seems the pokemon fanbase on here is pretty big.
To me, it's another rpg, but one with creatures almost as awesome as myself. Also, Gen II was the best. Best music, best metagame, best legendary (lugia), best nostalgia. Only thing it needed was more Missingno.

They look good, but, I think that some of the mario games have better graphics like Super Mario 64 ds. Animal Crossing has pretty good graphics as well...

Some of the screen shots in B&W look pretty EPIC! I Can't wait till it comes to America! Whoops probably shouldn't have that attitude or Nintendo will charge us $50 for it!

Pokemon is better than all the older rated games anyway, no matter what my friends try tell me.

Voted Generation 4 because it has a wider competitive scope.

Not really. The dragon part isn't bad. It's only weak to Ice and Dragon.

One of my favorite types is Water/Dragon. I hope they make a pokemon that has the stats similar to Salamence that's a water type dragon.

It's still inferior to the likes of Garchomp and Salamence. Ice/Dragon is such a bad offensive typing, since they hit hard on the same types. It's got great attacking stats, (Base 130 i both Atk. stats) but it's slow. Plus, Rock is one of the worst weaknesses a pokemon can possess.

That would be epic. I love dark types. Mostly because of their immunity to psychic. Probably the best type to be immune to.

Yeah I agree. I don't like pure steel types though. I like guys like Bronzong, Metagross, or lucario

You forgot psychic. They raped everything in generation I and still are pretty powerful. So powerful that dark types were introduced just to counter psychics

Psychic was pretty threatening back then, but Gamefreak did well in nerfing it.
Psychic is only really useful against fighting types. :/ imo of course.

Psychic is only really useful against fighting types. :/ imo of course.
They are still pretty useful. Bu I prefer to use dark types on my teams now, and dragon types have become like psychics were almost. I wonder how gen 5 is affecting competitive battle

We will see. Most common pokemon in peoples teams is Tyranitar. I like him but he's weak to a lot.

I haven't heard anything changing the battling system from it, which would be odd. Gen 2 added dark and steel, gen 3 changed the EV system, gen 4 changed physical and special attacks

I know, gen 3 has a decent amount of love after being neglected in the beginning of the poll

Testing is going on of course. Pokelab will be the successor to shoddy, so suspect stuff is underway.

And Dragon is only resisted by one type: steel. That's why it's such a great neutral offensive type. Pokemon like Salamence and Garchomp have huge base attack stats, and power like that combined with moves such as Outrage and Draco Meteor murder pokemon.

An article I read said that the change in physical and special attacks helped dragons gain power too.

Dagonite, Latias, and Sazandora are good choices for the OU metagame.

You get a guaranteed KO with those two pokemon. I assure you, putting them in OU would give you more than one guaranteed KO.
