==Introduction==

I've been a fan since Gen I, but near the end of Gen II, I lost interest. After seeing {{p|Beautifly}}, I figured Game Freak had run out of {{p|Butterfree|original ideas}}, so I skipped {{v2|Ruby}} and {{v2|Sapphire}}, but the remakes of Gen I brought me back. Thanks to {{v2|FireRed}} and {{v2|LeafGreen}}, I also invested a little time checking out Gen III Pokémon, and came to the realization, that some of them were actually {{p|Blaziken|pretty}} {{p|Flygon|original}}. As for Gen IV, well, I wasn't going to jump in, but after a friend of mine did first, I decided, why not? I had to try out the all new {{p|Magnezone}} and get in on that Wi-Fi action. While looking for info to educate myself on what I missed during my Poké-hiatus, I found Bulbapedia. The rest is history.

====Titanium Gym====

This is my old IPGL gym team. When I left the league, my overall tally for this team is an awesome 65 wins, and only 6 losses. I always lead with a Steel-type, but it changed depending on who I was facing. Now that I'm not battling anymore, I can openly say that both Lucario and Scizor run {{m|Swords Dance}} sets (although, I had alternate sets in my early matches) and when they were on the field, they nearly guaranteed me at least one, probably 2 kills each. Magnezone was a revenge killer, Steel trapper, and generally used for killing anything that was already damaged. It may sound weird, but basically, everyone knew I had Zone, but no one knew when they would see him. And as they pondered this, that's when he would surprise them. Metagross was just brute force. No real strategy on him except an unconventional moveset. Worked awesome. Skarmory and Empoleon rarely proved useful and were rarely used as a result. Our rules allowed 2 non-Steel-types allowed, so I chose Gliscor and Gyarados because they resisted a lot of the types that are strong against Steel. I didn't have much time to give them proper movesets, but they proved confounding enough that even with fairly straightforward attacking sets, they did exactly what I needed them to; cause the opponent to switch.

Gen V is here! WHAT?! NO MAGNEMITE?! It's true. For the first time since Gen I, I didn't use a Magnemite (before Megamite, I had a Raichu). Galvantula is pretty damn cool though, and with {{a|Compoundeyes}}  it throws a mean {{m|Thunder}}. Granted, its a hell of a lot less powerful than Zone, and noticeably more frail. In this gen, I don't really like any of the starters. Game Freak really screwed this all up making Emboar another Fire/Fighting because really, Samurott should absolutely be Water/Fighting. Not to mention Samurott's really stupid stat spread, but regardless, he did a pretty good job. Sigilyph is just plain cool. He looks, sounds, and acts ridiculous, and with {{a|Magic Guard}}, he just doesn't care what you think. Good stat spread and great movepool. Chandelure and Mienshao were Pokemon I wanted pretty bad, but you only get late in the game. Thankfully, {{u|Umeko}} and {{u|Jo The Marten}} respectively traded me a bred Pokemon. Specially bred IV made them both killing machines. Then there's Excadrill. As soon as he was revealed I wanted one, and I searched FOREVER in [[Wellspring Cave]] for a good Drilbur. Can't tell you how long it took, but it payed off. By the way, in the interest of learning names, I didn't nickname anything. The nicknames listed are simply names they I called them myself.

| class="l" | Fast hard hitting metal mole. That is a recipe for awesome. Gen V is brand new, so its pretty hard to tell if he will go out of style or not. Currently looking good (although the competitive battling community might argue that).

| class="l" | As I said in the above section. It looks, sounds, and acts ridiculous. Whats not to like? It's so hard to tell what it looks like, how can it get old?

| class="l" | Two sides to the coin here. On the face of things, its an interesting concept. a Ghostly chandelier. That alone is pretty cool, but a staggering 145 Sp.Atk makes it a total beast.

| class="l" | {{p|Mienshao}}

| class="c" | [[File:637.png]]

| class="l" | Another type combo I like combined with absurd stats. It has the presance of a legendary without the tacky fan following.
