I'd love to talk about it, if I had it.
Unfortunately, I lack the proper funds. ;___;

I got a job, so I've been preparing for when I get Platinum, soon.
Withing the month I'll have it, hopefully!

I've been using my Pearl to breed a few Pokemon for my Platinum team.
I'm trying to make them desirable natures and stuff.
I want a Cyndaquil as my 'starter', so I spent all day trying to breed an adamant one!

i'm loving this version of pokemon. its all the small useful things that really help. Like there's a guy in veilstone that can tell you what type Hidden Power would be if you were to teach it to a pokemon - saves you trying to find a kecleon to try it on.

Also during battles, usually it told you what pokemon was next and asked you if you wanted to switch. If you werent paying attention to the screen, you'd miss what pokemon was next and have to guess whether to switch or not. Now when it asks that question, the name of the next pokemon stays on the message screen, so if you turn away while fighitng and look back, you can still see what's out next.

That sounds pretty handy, it's screwed me over more than a few times.

i got the game right when it came out. it was hard to find at gamestop. i looked at three different gamestops

I'm back after leaving for many months (last time I logged on was January, last time I posted was a while before that) and I wonder if any of you guys still remember me!

Still loving this game even now...

I prefer Giratina to Plkia and Dialga. I just think it's more...cuddly.
