I don't remember the exact numbers myself. But they'll make all the difference if you're playing against someone who IV breeds. I personally don't see the point in not doing it since it's so easy and fun. :V

Slightly off topic but is there a list of all of the Pokémon the Ash Ketchum character has caught through the years in chronological order?

Thanks, Cubed. I was wondering about who he had accumulated after I recently found out Charizard returned.

Shiny Psyduck,huh? Which Shiny Pokemon do you have? I have a Shiny Metagross, Marill, and Razqueza.

Charizard actually returned to Ash many times since he stayed at the valley in the beginning of Johto. It returned in the 3rd movie to battle Entei, during the 8th Johto Gym to battle Claire, during the Johto league to battle Gary and Harrisson's Blaziken, during Hoenn to battle Articuno in the Battle Frontier, and again at the end to battle Pyramid King Brandon. Its return in Unova was its 7th return.

I stopped watching the anime after the first Hoenn episode but did catch the Articuno vs Charizard battle and the Fab Four reunion against the last Battle Frontier. I was referring to the Unova return which was to Ash's rotation. I was surprised with the idea he was forever stuck in the Charisific Valley even if he and Squirtle are still available just not for regular appearances.

Shh. You're revealing too much of your true nature, Cube.

I just realized all of the Black/White anime is up on Netflix along with the movies so I may start watching that. Last episode of the anime that I saw was actually the premier/first episode of Black/White. I know this series gets hated on but I'm more of a passive Pokemon anime fan that watches as I'm doing something else (hell maybe I'll be playing my copy of B/W as I watch and finally finish that game and be able to transfer my Pokemon to Bank), so I'm not really bothered if the quality isn't great or a bunch of fillers are in it. It is my lifelong goal to eventually watch all of the Pokemon anime. I've watched the Kanto League/Orange League and Hoenn League entirely. For Johto I'm only missing the first third, for D/P-B/W-X/Y I'm missing it all, so i still need to catch up. I like the anime for what it is a way to see animated Pokemon and cool fights/plots from time to time and don't consider it this great show so I'm able to enjoy it..

In other Pokemon related news the Pokemon Symphony is going to be coming to my City in October, this is great news and was hoping they'd expand their dates worldwide like the Zelda concerts, it's going to be amazing.

I got all 8 badges and I've finished Victory Road. I traded a L24 Lapras for a L64 Latios. I decided to do a few optional side quests before I challenge the Elite Four. I registered my Alpha Sapphire game on the Pokemon Global Link website.

My Team:
Latios
Kyogre
Golem
Swellow
Magnezone
Houndoom

Others:
Swampert
Latias
Breloom

You went the route I got to the point of doing, more than 6 raised through the game to cover all types and maintain a strong team despite number limitation of what can be carried at one time. I wish we would be allowed a 7th slot in the next generation just because there are so many now and it would be the seventh generation.

I see you have your Swampert as one of your reserves. I have a habit of using two to three starters in my rotation each generation. You are a bit heavy on the water types but it looks strong and balanced well enough overall.

Seeing this post reminds me to dust off my Alpha Sapphire game. Its been untouched for two weeks.

I recently just found my Pokemon cards.. Not sure what their worth and haven't had much time to value them because I also found my vintage MTG at the same time.. And I cannot believe what I have, but that's for another thread.

If anyone is interested in trading Pokemon cards, I am down to trade mine off, though I would need a little time to figure out their value.

They're talking about trading VG pokemon and not TCG cards. As far as Pokemon cards I'm probably the expert here since I've worked for and judged many events for The Pokemon Company. Sadly if your cards are from the Wizards of the Coast(the fad) era most of them are worthless, after that it really depends but unless it's an EX probably not worth a lot if anything.

No mine are from 95/96-99. Some are "Pocket Monsters" which have Japanese writing.

and some are made by Nintendo Creatures Gamefreak. The wiki doesn't mention Nintendo Gamefreak, they do mention Wizards of the West Coast, Nintendo. Not sure if there is a difference.

If you have the willingness, I'd love to share with someone of your knowledge. I doubt I have anything of value but it would awesome to find out.

Edit: The wiki says Ex is in the TCG deck? I'll do a little research tomorrow and see if I have any. Will P.M. if you'd like to know if I have any.

I agree that there should be a 7th slot, as there are so many different type combinations as well. I finished New Mauville and explored parts of Sea Mauville.

Spoiler:
Lugia
was too hard to catch in SM (I don't need it for my team anyway), so now I'm just training my Pokemon a bit before I face the Elite Four. I found that some Trainers in Secret Bases give good EXP.

I beat the Elite Four and Champion a few hours ago (I thought the first two opponents were more challenging than the last three). I'm doing the Delta Episode Quest now (I need to find a Meterorite Shard in Meteor Falls at the moment).

Are you referring to the mega shopping complex that is Mauville in Alpha and Omega? It does not effect the game play so easy come, easy go.

It DOES affect the gameplay when you can't navigate the damn thing.

Also, Nintendo took a massive **** on my favourite town. I was so excited to get there and then I ran into impossible-to-navigate city. I am not happy about this.
