Hello, I'm Starmie 121. I've been on Bulbapedia for a while, and if you've been on Misty's Staryu chances are you've seen my work :P. My first game was Pokemon LeafGreen which I still have today. I still remember how marveled I was by it. If you havn't guessed what you're favorite Pokémon is by now, there's no hope for you. And if you want to battle or trade, my FC is knocking about here somewhere. Most likely in the user tag :D In the event you want a battle, I've left some notes below on my Pokémon.
In Real Life Journal
Currently I am studying Art, Combined English, Classical Civilisation and Geography at Aquinas College. Super place ^^. I'd say the Art A-Level is, a bit disappointing if I'm honest, for some reason I was expecting something a little different. I'll stick with it though :P. I'd say my favorite out of them is Geography, and if I'd heard myself saying that a year ago I would have thought I'd gone mad.
I'm also looking at Universities I might apply to when I've finished my A levels. I'm looking to study English, I've not decided whether I want it as a single or combined course at the moment. I'll undoubtedly finish that up with a years teacher training course, assuming I can't find a course that incorporates it. Scotland is looking tempting, as A Levels are liked quite a bit over there, and you're allowed to skip the first year of the course over there with them (they work on a 4 year system where the first year is kinda like trying the courses out). Also my boyfriend informs me there may be a way to get in for free and use my uni time as guaranteed residency, he's gonna look into this more though. Current considerations I've had for Uni's are Aberystwyth and Oxford. Aber I'm more uncertain about than I was, and Oxford you need to be very good for. Could be an issue...
Pokedork's League
I entered for Pokedork's Dork cup this year and had a great deal of fun doing it, here's a rundown of the battles:
Battle #1: GlaceonWatair
The first battle was pretty simple, after having my Kingdra killed I brought out my Starmie and sweeped to victory
Win
Battle #2: Bizzareintuition
The second battle saw my Gengar get killed immedietly, allowing my Rhyperior to come out and... get killed too :(. Then I pull out Kingdra and demolish their team, much to their surprise.
Win
Battle #3: TeaandZebraStripes
This battle was to be the end of me, or so I thought. After being stalled by a Bronzong, I get two more team mates sweeped before taking down two more of theirs. Finally I have my Gengar up against their Skarmory, with neither taking offensive action, but Edgar being whittled by Sandstorm, I'm ready to accept defeat, but then a lucky TB kills it and takes me through.
Win - Just
Following this I qualified for the Top Eight. Using the Swiss style, I was 'seeded' #2. To my next opponent.
Battle #4: TwilightFairy (7)
This was a close battle, with Pokémon falling everywhere. I was surprised I managed to Surf Bronzong to so much damage, and queally shocked when Weezing survived a Flare Blitz on low health. I was happy to go out at this stage to someone who also likes to mix in UU's such a Crobat. Finally I made the crucial mistake of over estimating my Kingdra's survivability and from that point on I was doomed. Good fun was had by all though, and I made a friend in the process. Best loss I've ever had :D

D/P/Team
To date, I've never operated a team without having at least one Starmie on it. Weezing, being one of my favorites was also high on consideration. My original three Pokémon were Cassiopia (Starmie), Scrofula (Weezing) and No.6 (Magnezone). My Magnezone was named for the Magnemite (and later Magneton) encountered by Ash in the orange islands. At the time of my beginning it's training, my Gabite (Mortis) was classified as OU on Smogon University. It has since been upgraded to Uber, meaning it is the first Uber I have trained for a team. Training is now complete for Mortis and it is now listed under my team. Drool, Bia and Aqualias are now listed.
Pokemon Options (My Elite)
Rather than have a set team, I prefer to have a variety of Pokémon I can use,to this end I operate on 3V3 battles to keep battles more condensed and just for the sake of being different. Below are the Pokémon I have trained up, and below that are the Pokémon I am training up and the ones I would like to add to my options. I have fallen behind somewhat on training with the onset of my A-levels (I have exams in Geography and English in January)
These are the Pokémon I have to play with so far. To condense this, the first column deals with Pokemon species, level, nature, item held and rating - 1 being the worst, 5 being the best.
