First of all, to the mods:
I'm not really sure if this is the place for this, though a quick peek through the rules seems to give me the impression that this isn't exactly against the rules...but I could very well be wrong. If this is an infraction or in the wrong forum, please feel free to either lock it or move it...
Anyway, I've got a major request from my fellow Smogonites:
Last night I was robbed; I lost my entire art portfolio (Which, by the way, check out my artwork in my sig...believe me...that's the hardest loss), all of the tools to fixing my bicycle, my bike lock, my laptop, my iPod and skullcandy headphones, and my DS with Pokemon Soul Silver.
The worst part about losing my SoulSilver cart is that it contained over a thousand hours of gameplay from when I first started to learn Pokemon from a competitive standpoint, and from my progress in breeding in RNG manipulation.
This cart had my very first non-RNG bred shinies, my first wild shinies, and my first ever RNG'd Pokemon, as well as my VGC 2010 teams and competitive 1v1 teams. This was the game that got me through some of the toughest times after I lost my job, this was the game that brought me back to my childhood and reminded me of what a good Pokemon game was.
Everything I've worked for, Pokemon related-wise, was lost with this cart. What's worse is that I've got no real documented list of the Pokemon outside of an old trade thread I made a year or two ago that was deleted...so I've got no definite list of everything lost.
I'm not sure if this is a selfish request, because I know there are a lot of users here that beg for handouts and fake things like this, but it's the best way I can think of as far as recovering the last two years of my life.
I've compiled a short list of Pokemon that I know for sure that were lost...if you guys could just help me get this start...just get back on my feet here...I'm sure I can breed and RNG the rest of the way. And if there's any way I can pay any of you back, do not hesitate to ask, I will happily do a breeding project or some similar request.
Being that I'm trying to rebuild a collection, I've got NO plan to trade anything off, these are strictly going to be used for rebuilding and rebreeding. If anyone would like to help me out in this endeavor, I would be extremely grateful.
Here is a list of what I'm missing:
Charizard (Or Charmander) - Shiny -
Nature - Adamant
My first ever shiny I bred. I know it's not the same, but even a replacement for the original is better than nothing. He was pretty flawed in the IV department, but it's still one of my proudest moments in Pokemon.
Venusaur (or Bulbasaur) - Shiny
(Unknown nature)
Bred moves: Power whip
This guy was my first accidental shiny...he appeared shortly after my Charmander and is another of my proudest moments in Pokemon. Also had a flawed IV spread. Again, I know the original can never be replaced...but I still consider it homage to a landmark.
Shiny Pikachu
[Breed Moves] - Wish, Encore
Nature - Most likely Timid or Modest
Used in a lot of breeding
Shiny Ditto
Nature - Timid or Modest (I believe)
This was actually one I won from Riski in a giveaway long ago...not sure on the status of getting another one, but this was one of my most important tools in breeding.
Smeargle
Nature - Jolly?
Own Tempo
I actually had two of these guys...one with flawless IV's for breeding (My second most important tool in breeding, next to Ditto), the other was just used to abuse his ability 'Sketch' with wild dittos so that I could force other Smeargles to learn moves.
Shiny Mewtwo
Nature - Timid
Probably won in a giveaway, used in ubers.
Shiny Kyogre (In love ball)
Nature - (Timid or Modest, unsure...)
This one's oddly specific. Won in a giveaway from Riski...still unsure of the status of regaining another one from her.
Shiny Cacnea
Nature - Unknown
Egg Moves - Seed Bomb, Focus Punch
More breeding.
Shiny Machop
Nature - Adamant
Egg Moves - Bullet Punch, Ice Punch
The only thing I care about here is Ice Punch. Bullet punch just kind of ended up there, but it's still pretty nice.
Shiny Eevee
Nature - Unknown
Egg Moves - Wish
Pretty certain that I had a few different Eevees, mostly primed to be Vaporeons or Umbreons...but really, anything works.
Shiny Togepi
Nature - Timid
Ability - Serene Grace
Egg Moves - Nasty Plot
Shiny Vaporeon
Nature - Bold
Just your typical Wish support setup. If I recall, it was a female that was circulating the forums as a fully redis Poke.
Shiny Vulpix
Nature - Timid
Egg Moves - Hypnosis
Shiny Hoppip
Nature - Timid
Ability - Chlorophyll
Egg Moves - Encore
Deoxys (S)
Nature - Jolly
This guy was a real pain to get a hold of in the first place.
Shiny Dratini/Shiny Dragonite
Nature - Adamant
Egg Moves - Extremespeed
Mew
Nature - Unknown...most likely Timid/Modest/Calm/Jolly?
Mostly my HM slave, also my favorite Pokemon to have following me around.
Celebi
Nature - Unknown
Pretty much just used this guy for the Celebi quest.
Shiny Bagon/Salamence
Nature - Naive
Egg Moves - Dragon Dance
And if I can get even more specific, I actually gave this guy away in a giveaway: The nickname was 'Reptar' and the OT was Carlos. There's a good 10-20 of these guys floating around (at least), so if someone happens to have a copy...that would be extra cool.
Shiny Rayquaza
Nature - Jolly
Shiny Chimchar
Nature - Naive/Jolly?
Blissey
Notable Moves: Seismic Toss
OT - MattJ (I believe...)
This guy is another fully redis Pokemon that I'm sure a lot of you have.
Shiny Skarmory
Nature - Impish
Egg Moves - Whirlwind, Brave Bird
Heatran
Notable Moves - HP Grass
Another one of those pokes that was fully redis and is pretty readily floating around the forums. I WANT to say this one belongs to MattJ as the OT, but I could be completely wrong...
Shiny Raikou
One of the crown pokes that were floating around shortly before black release in the States...supposed to be my ticket to Zoroark.
Shiny Pineco
Nature - Relaxed
Scyther
Nature - Adamant
Egg Moves - Baton Pass
Abra
Ability - Synchronize: Timid, Jolly, Adamant
Or any other synchronizer...but I typically used Abras because they're awesome.
Zigzagoon
Nature - Adamant
Special Attacks - Extremespeed
One of my prized possessions...the gentleman who traded me this worked extremely hard to get a good IV spread. If you're out there man...another copy would make me a happy camper.
Shiny Marill
Nature - Adamant
Ability - Huge Power
Shiny Drifblim
Nature - Timid
Egg Moves - hypnosis
Shiny Ghastly
Nature - Timid
Shiny Gligar
Nature - Jolly
Ability - Hyper Cutter
Egg Moves - Agility (Optional), Baton Pass
Shiny Magikarp
Nature - Adamant
Shiny Riolu/Lucario
Nature - Adamant
Tutored Moves - Ice Punch
Shiny Magnemite
Nature - Modest
Shiny Shroomish/Breloom
Nature - Brave
Ability - Poison Heal
Egg Moves - Seed Bomb
Nature - Adamant
Ability - Poison Heal
Egg Moves - Seed Bomb
Shiny Slowpoke/Slowbro
Nature - Relaxed
Ability - Own Tempo
Snorlax
Nature - Adamant
Shiny Staryu
Nature - Timid
As well as countless others...I was pretty close to finishing the Pokedex, so the cart was prefect for all of my breeding needs. Pretty much everything had flawless IV's if not extremely close/optimal.
On the plus side, I've still got my BLACK game cart which I traded over a few Pokemon to at one point a while back, so some of the damage has been avoided.
But that also means that I can only do 5th gen trades.
My new (Gen 5) FC is: 3911 6830 6247
