What does everyone think of the Pokemon game Francise?

People can come here not only to talk about Pokemon, but also have others rate their teams for them.

I think the games are rather addicting. I'm still playing my Ruby version after 3 years, now.

I used to like pokemon, but eventually the games didn't appeal to me anymore.

Yeah, I used to be a fan of the games. I mean.. everyone was at some point in their childhood. I'll occasionally play Pokemon on my DS, but am I still a fan? No.

Mmm, I'm not a fan. But it is a fun little RPG to carry around with you on your GBA.

I have a team here that needs to be rated by someone else. This is one of the reasons for this thread: to rate other people's teams and to make corrections.

D-D-D-DOUBLE POST!

Alright kiddies, we got lots of information to cover on Pokemon Black/White, so HERE WE GO!

1. Route names have been reset to Route 1, and so on. This is due to the fact that the Isshu region is very far away from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.

2. TRIPLE BATTLES, BABY! You can have three on three pokemon battles, with brand new strategies incorporated into them.

3. Loads of new Pokemon and moves/abilities have been revealed, from the American war eagle Wooguru to the sand crocodile Meguruko to the gothic celestial pokemon Gochiruzeru.

4. You can send your pokemon to the dream realm, which is an online area only obtainable once you've obtained a certain pokemon.

5. You can save your game on official Nintendo Servers, allowing you to play games online that will have an effect on your game.

G4E... I can understand that this is an in-game team, not one meant for competitive battling, so for in-game wise, it's sorta good. However, there's just one small problem that I would like to point out.

1. All your pokemon are weak to ground/rock. I'd suggest you'd fix up your team so that you'd cover this weakness, like swapping Arbok out for Bellosum or Skarmory... that would definitly help out your team. Otherwise, it's alright...

Nobody wants to play against me with pokemon, so I would'nt know what's good or not.............

My other team had Dragonite in it. That fine for you?

They went to sh*t after Emerald, the last great one. =p

I am lucky enough to have a 3 of the pokemon generations...

Yellow, I have no clue what my team is... last time i checked I had a singe ridoking or whatevr they are.

Ruby, I forgot. I think I had a swampert, groudon, and some others. Swampert level 70... I think.

Pearl I haven't beaten and don't plan to. Someone used a cheat when borrowing my game (because I was stuck) and I somehow have x99 of all TMS and I have all the HMS (even though I can barely use any of them...)

In my personal oppinion, Diamond/Pearl were pretty bad. Platinum got the 4th generation back up to what it was supposed to be, and HG/SS gave the 4th generation a perfect close, with bringing back the charm of G/S/C to the DS... Especially with the Pokemon able to follow you. THat was a nice little touch.

Nidoking is made of win, that's for certain,,, he's a jack of all trades, able to learn a wide variety of TM's, including some he shouldn't be able to learn at all...

Nidoking and nidoqueen can use every HM except for fly and can learn quite a few TMs as well.....

Tropius too, though not as much raw strength I think. But then, faster, and it can fly.

Tropious is made of fail. It's slow, weak, and X4 weak to ice... I only used one as an HM slave on Emerald... it's just horrible and needs an evolution, BADLY.

On the other hand, Salamance and Flygon are really awsome pokemon. The former can jsut outright sweep, and the latter can do... uh... let me get back to you on that part...

I agree. My Groudon is mainly for bait once I hit the Ice-Type Elite.

*I still haven't beaten Ruby's elite FIVE. Damn Ghost-Types... using thier curses and ****.*

Yes, elite FIVE because I count the damn Champion and hs ******* Skarmory!

(I am playing Kingdom Hearts 2 while I wait for posts in ISS and the EWar. This has nothing to do with Pokemon.)


Hey, a smiley made just for Gira and this topic! How neat!

He was EASY. Groudon>>>>>> all of elite pokemon past ice and water. Make sure to have an electric type and a fire type too, though. I also had a Aggron for the fight too.

It's mainly my Sawmpert nad Groudon who do the fighting. The WEAKLINGS defeat the Dark-Type fool and die soon after.

What sucks is that if I get to the blasted Dragon-Type-Guy my Groudon is dead and my Swampert down to less than half his HP.

Drake is like that... he's one bad*** pirate dude.

I haven't played Saphire in EONS, but I do know that the ELite 4 in Emerald is almost the same as it is in Ruby/Saphire (Except for Wallace.)

Steven... is sorta easy, if you know your types. Just use water/ground/fire moves, and he should go down rather fast... the Metagross and his special-based Aggron can be a pain, but they will go down in due time... Wallace, on the other hand, is a nightmare. (Stop getting up Double Teams, you stupid dancing plant duck!)

Salamence is possibly my favorite, though that's very debatable.
Scizor has a high place with me too.
