Hi! I'm New!
I'm brand new to Bulbapedia! I've used this site for years but have only recently started editing. So, if I'm messing up please tell me! I'm still working out the kinks of editing on here but any tips or pointers would be much appreciated! Thanks!
Pokémon Experience
As far as Pokémon go, I don't really watch the anime or play the card game. I only play the video games... and I play them like a religion! I got hooked back in high school and now, 8 years later, I still need my Poké fix! I'm big on only catching legit Pokémon and never use an Action Replay. I only catch Pokémon in the games or event Pokémon. If anyone needs to know where a Pokémon is just ask!

Current Party
I'm a very diverse trainer. Sometimes I breed Pokémon for people or for egg moves and sometimes I build teams just because I have all of the Pokémon and nothing else better to do! Bottom line is that my team is always changing. So, below is the current team I'm walking around with, but it is not necessarily my strongest.
Favorite Pokemon
No. Pokémon Reason 1 File:Spr 3e 065.gif Alakazam is my favorite Pokémon! His high Speed and Sp. Attack make him great for mowing over people fast. It sucks that his Defense and Sp. Defense suck but Calm Mind fixes one of those. Plus, breeding Encore into him and combining that with Disable can really mess up an opponent! Alakazam has always been the Pokémon that has helped me beat every game starting with Red Version. Love this guy! 2 File:Spr 3e 248.gif Tyranitar wasn't one of my favorite until after I dominated with him in Pokemon XD. Granted he is a pseudo legendary, I like him because he's a beast! His Sand Stream proves that he's awesome. The second he enters the battle Mother Nature goes crazy. Plus his use of Dark and Rock moves coupled with his high Attack make him my #2! 3 File:Spr 3e 242.gif AKA: Template:P2. This damage sponge is one of the greatest things a trainer could have with them. Outside of battle, Blissey's Softboiled heals your Pokémon just as well as any potion. All you need to heal your entire party is a Blissey and one Max Potion! In battle, Blissey is ridiculous! Seriously. She's the worst Pokémon for battling. The only real way to do damage to an opponent is to teach her a TM that uses Sp. Attack because she only learns regular attack moves (I like Ice Beam). Blissey just isn't a fighter... she's a wall, and coupled with Defense Curl and Minimize she can be an immovable wall. I call it "Blissey-ing" battles when you exhaust an opponent down to struggle-ing itself to death because it ran out of PP. It's helped me out against the Tower Tycoon, the Elite Four, and even a couple of my friends. I love that Template:P2!
Shiny Pokémon Obtained
These are the shiny Pokémon I've caught in my years of playing. Some of them I ran into on accident while training. The others I used chaining to hunt down. I've recently caught 6 Template:Shiny2 Eevee's and will evolve them into most of the Eeveelutions soon. Until then I'm only listing the ones I have.

The Biweekly Pokémon Tournament
Around July of 2008 a friend and I thought of throwing bi-weekly Pokémon tournament. They were pretty fun as long as people showed up. The rule were as follows:
- Official Rules:
- 1) All Pokémon in your party must be the same type as the type drawn from the hat at the beginning of the tournament (duel types are allowed : i.e. Water / Rock is good if you drew Rock ).
- 2) All Pokémon must be acquired after the type drawing. Catching, breeding, and receiving in trades are allowed.
- 3) No legendary Pokémon are allowed in the tournament.
- 4) All items are allowed (including berries). There are no move restrictions. All moves are allowed.
- 5) Battle will alternate between Singles and Double Battles. It will be specified in the each Tournament's rules.
- 6) Only Generation IV games allowed (Diamond, Pearl, Platinum). All battles will take place on the Wii via Pokémon Battle Revolution!
- 7) Tournament will take place 2 weeks after the type drawings.
- 8) Players must draw another type if they draw the same type as they used in the previous tournament.
Basically, each player had two weeks to raise a new team of a specific type as high as they could get them from scratch. There were no prizes unless a player offered one. It was just for fun. We held four tournaments over the course of two months before canceling the rest due to lack of participation. When we finished I had a 19-0 record going and it doesn't look like is will be challenged any time soon. Hopefully, one day the biweekly tournament will come back. Feel free to use these rules for your own tournaments :)
The 5th Tournament
For no reason other then sheer boredom, I've decided to hold one more tournament. This will be the 5th tournament that I've held. It takes place on January 24, 2009 at my apartment. As a reward, 1st place will take home a Template:Shiny2 Tyranitar with an Enigma. 2nd place gets a Template:Shiny2 Pikachu with a Lucky Egg. 3rd Place gets a Template:Shiny2 Kricketune with an Exp. Share. I'm offering all the rewards... kinda sucks knowing I'm going to lose something even if I win it all.

Biweekly Tournament Record
After four tournaments:
Overall Tournament Rank:
Types used so far:
Best Sleeper: Breloom
Many trainers use a Pokémon that knows some type of sleep inducing move in order to catch wild Pokémon. These Pokémon are often referred to as "Sleepers." My "bread and butter" Sleeper has always been Butterfree. His ability Compoundeyes makes his accuracy with Sleep Powder hit nearly every time. Plus, he isn't ridiculously strong so he can wear down an opponent's HP. However, while training my Grass team for the Biweekly Tournament mentioned above, I ran across an amazing Sleeper: Breloom. Breloom can learn the move Spore and, if chain bred, he can learn False Swipe. Spore is the only sleep inducing move that has 100% accuracy and works on the first turn. Granted it only has a damage of 40, False Swipe leaves an opponent with only 1 HP. Coupled with Breloom's maximum possible attack of 394 and you'll be able to get anything down to 1 HP in one, maybe two, hits. Also, to make sure your Breloom doesn't have ay trouble staying awake (or alive) make sure its ability is Poison Heal and not Effect Spore. Then just give him a Toxic Orb and teach him Protect via TM. That way, if you are really nervous of a status ailment, you can use Protect on the first turn and you'll be protected for the rest of the match! Plus when poisoned, Poison Heal acts like Leftovers and actually heals Breloom instead of hurting him. Mix in Substitute and you have a hella-strong Pokémon let alone a Sleeper. For those pesky tough Pokémon, like Template:Type2, I'd recommend knowing Sky Uppercut... but that might kill an opponent so you should probably bump it down a notch to Force Palm or even Mach Punch.
Chaining False Swipe Into Breloom
The quickest way I've found of breeding False Swipe into Breloom is to start with Farfetch'd. Go to the Veilstone Department Store and buy TM54 (False Swipe). Teach it to a MALE Farfetch'd (or level it up to level 43... whatever floats your boat). Then follow the table below:

Mawile♀N/A Parents File:Spr 3e 303.gif
Mawile♂
(with False Swipe)File:Spr 3e 286.gif
Breloom♀Child File:Spr 3e 285.gif
Level 45 Shroomish♀/♂
(with False Swipe & Spore)
I'd recommend you go with a male Shroomish so you can pass on these awesome moves to other Pokémon. Level up your False Swipe wielding Shroomish to level 45 before letting him evolve into Breloom. When he hits level 45 he will learn Spore.
Fun Pokémon Stories
Score One For The Underdog!
My coolest battle took place in Cerulean Cave. I was training to get a Charmeleon and took my newly hatched, lvl 5, Flamethrower yielding, Charmander into the cave to get some experience. I left him in the first position of my party with an Exp. Share to get the most experience I could (with every intention of switching him out right away). The first wild Pokémon I encountered was a level 55 Wobbuffet. It's ability Shadow Tag prevented me from switching out. I got lucky since Wobbuffet doesn't know any offensive attacks it didn't crush me in one hit. I managed to burn it with Flamethrower and after a long battle managed beat it with Charmander. My level 5 Charmander beat the level 55 Wobbuffet! That was pretty cool! I jumped up to level 13 after that battle :)
Ditto and the Power of Smeargle!
If you notice above, I caught a Template:Shiny2 Smeargle on Route 212 by chaining. Smeargle's move Sketch is an amazing move. I've used it many times to breed egg moves into Pokémon and cut out tedious links in a breeding chain. This time I wanted a Smeargle that was just awesome. I took my Template:Shiny2 Smeargle to Route 218 along with Ho-Oh, Pikachu, and Giratina. In the process of catching the Template:Shiny2 Smeargle it sketched the move Recover. After a wild Ditto transformed into my Ho-Oh I sketched the move Sacred Fire. After a different Ditto transformed into my Giratina I sketched the move Shadow Force. Finally, using the same method, I sketched my Pikachu's Volt Tackle. It made a pretty badass Smeargle! By using this method, a trainer can Sketch any move they currently possess with another Pokémon and don't need to find a trainer in the game that knows a specific move. Very, very useful when breeding in the Ground Group.
