Because that would not be a very good video game.

I don't get it.

There's no joke. I'm just venting because I was searching the GTS for a Japanese Ditto today and of the 5 that I found, 3 were shiny and 4 were asking for unreasonably low-levelled Legendaries. This comic was just the first thing that came to my mind.

On topic, is anyone willing to spare a Japanese Ditto that I can Masuda with? I traded my old one to a friend who's going on vacation.

I still don't get the comic.

I have a Turtwig plushie oddly enough. Although it's head is too heavy so it falls over if you try to stand it up correctly.

I don't recall exactly (I'd have to check)but I think I played Platinum with Piplup due to how strong Empoleon is. Although I picked Turtwig in Diamond.
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Hi. I'm sorting a possible party for BW2. I don't care for the metagame, my best interest is a 649 Dex. But I want a strong party along with me.

How's this?
Blaziken
Venusaur
Empoleon
Lucario
Gengar
Staraptor

Seems pretty balanced to me, though it seems a little redundant having two fighters on it. Perhaps replace Lucario with a dragon? Oh and you have Gengar so I love your party already. Blaziken isn't too bad either even though I prefer it's first two forms more.

Venusaur? It looks like you're picking the faves of PokeGAF.

Understood. There's a lack of Unova so Haxorus can work.

Was I? Didn't expect that.

Besides Bulbasaur, Chikorita is a very 2nd when it comes to favourite starter.

I'm probably the only one here who uses Chikorita in the Johto games...haha
 
I use Chikorita quite often because I like Meganium more than the other final forms of the Johto starters.
Not exactly a fun starter to use though.

Hate Mudkip and that was before the bloody memes, Swampert almost redeems it.
 
OK, I've started the challenge. I've named my female character "Shazam", and I'm playing with these rules:

-Only first Pokemon encountered in a new area may be captured (I'm allowing a second chance if the first Pokemon is already in my party/box- if the 2nd Pokemon isn't caught, nothing is. Somewhat of a harsher dupe clause than normal but eh.)
-No dupes allowed if Pokemon is currently "alive"
-Faint = permadeath, Pokemon must be released, revives banned
-Losing a battle is game over, must delete save
-Battle style = set

Items, hold items and running is all kosher. Team so far:

-TURTWIG, lvl 7, Littleroot
-BIDOOF, lvl 4, Rt 201
-Captain the Starly, lvl 6, Lake Verity

I just caught a Shinx on the route above Sandgem. What should I call it? I forgot to nickname the others :lol
