I've got a rant about all these movesets people make up.

I hate when they give a moveset and suggest a Hidden Power type that would be advantagous. Great, how in the hell am I suppose to get that type? I know there are ways to figure the hidden power type and power. Okay smart guys, if you're going to suggest a Hidden Power type, then tell us HOW TO GET IN THE FIRST PLACE!

Ex: I was looking for suggestions for a special attacking Eelektross, and there are several sets that suggest Hidden Power Ice. Okay, how do I get that wise guy? Tell me!

On Pokemon Online, you just click a button.

EDIT: Also, bumping the image from my last post so y'all don't have to jump pages and whatnot.

Personally, I like A and D the most, with E close behind.

[Mothra Freak]

I like C best, but I also think B captures Mew's playfulness well.

[zilla103192]

I prefer C.

I like B, but the head just doesn't look right to me.

[Legionmaster]

I knowww. It's dumb, because otherwise it would be the clear and obvious winner. I may try to retouch it later and see if I can't add some depth to it.

Yeah, I hate that shit too.

I tend to just ignore hidden power altogether, cuz it's like "well, I dont play Pokemon Online with other Smogon users, so why the Hell do I care what they run?"

But then imagine my surprise when I teach HP to my Chandelure and find out it has HP Fighting.



Anywho, I have a mini-rant as well; the skreeonk' GTS.

EVERYONE AND THEIR GODDAMN DOGS LISTS ZEKROM AND RESHIRAM AT LEVEL 9 AND UNDER.

WHY?!

WHY DO PEOPLE LIST IMPOSSIBLE REQUIREMENTS LIKE THAT?!

Or better yet. How often to you see this?

"Serperior at lv 9 and under."
"Landorus at lv 9 and under."
"Snivy at lv 100."

[Superrex]

^I think some people use the GTS as a storage system,so they make it so they can't get that Pokemon.

But yeah,I hate that too.

[Legionmaster]

Yeah the BW GTS is awful. It was really sweet in DP when people actually used it to trade.



I fixed up the B sprite. I think it looks a lot better now.

[MothraRocks]

Honestly, I think some people just use the GTS to show off; for example, I once looked up Darkrai for the heck of it. One person had a shiny one, and put up Arceus Level 9 and under. WHY.

Moving on, I like that Mew sprite a whole lot more now, it's my favorite one now. Just one teeny, tiny, itsy bitsy nit pick: Something about its eyes are a little... I dunno, just...off? Maybe it's just me lol.

[Tim85]

I agree about the GTS. For shiggles in my Black version, I used my Action Replay to get a Level 1 Zekrom and Reshiram to see what happens. It wouldn't let me do the trade. So yeah, the impossible to get Pokemon to trade is f-ing annoying.

[Flygon King]

The GTS has ALWAYS been pitiful. Every other request I saw was for a Legendary under lv. 10, and in exchange for random crap, like a lv. 100 Pikachu...

In other news... SCREW YOU, CLEFAIRY!!!

Just did a rematch against a double battle in LG... The trainers had a pair of Clefairies, and I used only my brand new Pupitar and Piloswine against them, in order to level them up. What did the little turds get from Metronome?

FLIPPING BLAST BURN AND PSYCHO BOOST! My poor guys were wiped out in one hit...

Gah! Those Clefairies... I swear they're the devil's agents...

[Godzilla 2000]

But then, one of the advantages it provides is letting you get basically any pokemon you want if YOU put something like a starter up.

Thats how I'm netting some of the pokes I dont want/cannot import on my own. I bred a shitload of Axews and Snivy's and put them up for simple, easy stuff like "Snivy for ANY Klinklang/Galvuntula/Gothitelle/etc," and because there are so many godawful trades up, people are bound to jump on yours for actually being REASONABLE.

[Legionmaster]

Who wants to make the backsprites because I'm too lazy to?

[GreenAiden555]

I need to pick up and play B/W some more... College sucks.


Do any of you guys to go leagues on the weekend? If so, how's the meta there?

When I went hunting for DW Pokemon; I'd put up anything and they'd jump on it within a few hours.

For those interested, here are the sprites for the starts in my romhack:

[HikizuruBeat]

Some of those sprites look kind of off....

Anyways I got the sprite rips from the pokemonxnobunaga game.

Love them!

odd combination of starters.

Thanks!

There's no way that any romhack I do will NOT have Meganium. He's the best starter in the whole wide word. As this is a Gen3 hack, it makes sense to have one starter from each generation. Originally, I was going to have Meganium, Blaziken, and Blastoise (my favs from each generation, which worked out nicely), but my one friend convinced me to use Charizard instead. This also meant that I'd get Mudkip, which I was ok with. I think if I had to get Treecko, I wouldn't have changed anything.
