I haven't had a pokemon game since ruby... Should I look at getting HG or SS on my 3ds sometime in the next 2 years?

Well, so far I think that Soul Silver was worth it, so I'd say yes.

Both of the new remakes are completely brilliant, and from people that have been playing ALL of the games over the years, people say they're basically among the best pokemon games ever, big time. Nevermind I heard somewhere that you can catch on the order of about... 420 different types of pokemon species with heartgold and/or soulsilver alone?

If nothing else, if you have the time to play it, there's plenty of challenges for anyone in the game. And I still need to beat red. He got a huge level boost in the remake, so his entire freaking team is in the 80s now x_X

XD The 80's? Sounds like a hell of a lot of leveling.

A fair bit, yes. I remember attempting to fight red with my team in the 60s. The freaking pikachu ko'd my entire team in one hit with one attack or another. The only damage it took was from the hail. XD

Yeah, he's crazy powerful.

I know that my first goal after obtaining the first badge will be to possibly try and trade for a Ralts.

... anyone surprised? XD

Oh I know. Red is a beast now because his pokemon are in the 80s. Mines are around the fifties with my Tyhosion around 70 so there is going to be some major training. It just that the problem with this game like GS is that there is no good training places. You have any suggestions?

Though right now I am trying to capture the Legendary Birds. Articuno is being a pain since I have to navigate though Seafoam Island....

I am not surprise but it is totally possible. If I still had WiFi then I be glad to trade you one.

Well, I do a lot of training on the first exterior area of Mt Silver- you have pokemon there that are around level 50, and net around 1200exp apiece for the good ones. That or just outside of Mt. Silver, since they average about 900 exp. Otherwise, I recommend plowing through the elite four, since they get a huge level boost after beating blue as well. You can also challenge the gym leaders to get some impressive exp as well, since once you beat them, you just leave the dojo, call them up and fight them again. I leveled up an Arcanine a good 20 levels doing that in an hour or two against Claire.

Regardless, I haven't been doing much leveling more my main team, actually, cause I've been focusing on my pokedex for the last few days- I think I have a good 180 different types as of now. I could probably get another 20 more, easily, through the safari zone, and the bug catching contest, but for now, I'm just trying to raise the pokemon I have so far~

No surprise here. :P But I haven't found one yet, surprisingly, even though I kinda want one, since they're pretty good.

If you want one, I could breed one for you. I have most of the pokedex filled out in pearl, and plenty of breeding stock there. It may even come with some nifty egg moves.

Okay. I was thinking about training at Unknown Dungeon but the levels kind of disappointed me and it is hard to move in the dark. (Nobody on main team knows Flash haha) Still I try those places out. I do want to fight the Elite Four since I know they get a good boost but I don't think at the level my guys are at that we would make it though. haah

Well, as a warning, the Elite Four themselves are around level 61- but Lance averages levels at 73. They're tough, but not impossible if you trump them correctly.

So I heard. That why I am in a rush to challenge them right now.

Can you trade between pearl/diamond and the new ones? I have either pearl or diamond, can't remember which. The only previous one I'd played was yellow, which I got quite far in, but don't think I got far at all into whatever new one I have.

Hard to find?

When I get around to beating the first gym, and then figuring this whole WiFi trading and stuff, I'll let you know. XD

Yeah, you can.

XD And Yellow was indeed fun.

Yeah. Between HG/SS to DPP.

Nintendo use to sell USB WiFi things along with a CD to install a program. Though I lost the program when I switch to a new computer and it seems like Nintendo discontinue creating patches/download programs. So no more WiFi at home for me. Either I pony up cash for WiFi at home or look for a place that will allow DS to get on WiFi. Sucks too since I had just made a new WiFi team that focus on Gravy when the computer went belly up. haha
