Never played the third gen of Pokemon (I got swept up in a period of Anti-Pokemon fever), but I really do love the Battle Frontier (or, in Unova, the Battle Subway). Lots of fun, and if you have a few good battlers, the points just racked up. I mainly use it as a means to earn points to pick...

Yep. Rioluke told me the same thing when we hung out last night. Darn. For a second there, I thought I'd done something extraordinary. Oh well, what it all comes down to is that I still have my Master Ball.

So, I thought I would try catching Reshiram with a quick ball just for kicks. Little did I know it would actually work.

Coincidentally, I took on a team full of legendaries and knocked out a Giratina with a Honchkrow, and it (Honchkrow) wasn't even fully EV trained.

As others have said, the simplicity. If you want to battle against other human players these days, you need to go out and find Pokemon with good numbers, and good natures, EV train the suckers in the right stats, and put together a good moveset where every move compliments the other, and...

I'm pretty new to the competitive scene, so I'm usually being surprised. My Shiftry/MagCargo/Hippowdon combo has managed to net me a few 20 battle winning streaks, but we can never seem to hit the next level.

I raised a Luxray on my HOF team in Platinum. Rioluke and I (he happens to be a very good friend of mine in real life) were having a discussion about different Pokemon, when he brought up the point of how Luxray could improve quite a bit if it could learn Volt Tackle. I would like to see this...

I once heard about this girl working at a pet shop who drowned a pair of rabbits and then held them up for some candid photos. And these people we're talking about sound like a real life Team Rocket (gamewise at least. And no, I'm not trying to make a joke here, just a comparison).

Yeah, the 14 strikeout game was incredible. It's always nice to see a young guy come up and live up to the hype. It's only one game, but this guy has the potential to be the next great pitching star.

I have been a fan of Pokemon since the first episode aired in the US. I only played the games sparingly, usually battling against friends with other copies they may have had, since I didn't own the game yet. One day, I finally picked up Pokemon Blue from a used game store and played through...
