She's absolutely nuts. It took me two hours to grind my growlithe in HG from lv. 25 to lv. 31. And she gains ten levels in two days on all 6 of her pokes.


its not that hard. i added 16 levels to all my pokes in about 5 hours of playing. Its all location, location, location...

update:

Still have four badges. I have yet to complete any Saffron City things or either route to Fuchsia (I've snuck there though without battling trainers.

Lavander Town and the tower are done.

I did grind and rename so pokemon:

Sting (formerly dickpoint) {beedrill} lv. 50 (+15 level increase)

nature: timid

moves: aerial ace, twineedle, pursuit, and brick break

stats: 140/114/59/59/113/108

Swiftbeak {pidgeot} lv. 51 (+15 level increase)

nature: quirky

moves: fly, sand attack, whirlwind, quick attack

stats: 150/106/89/91/90/127

Slash {persian} lv 50 (+15 lv increase)

nature: gentle

moves: slash, faint attack, bite, pay day

stats: 128/88/67/84/103/166

Gravity (formerly know as dj rocky) {graveler} lv 51 (+16 level increase)

nature: hardy

moves: earthquake, rollout, magnitude, rock blast

stats: 124/114/130/52/64/79

Control (formerly known as bob) {blastoise} lv 55 (+19 level increase)

nature: docile

stats: 153/110/139/115/138/137

ShineApe (formerly known as ShinePunch) shiny {primeape} lv 51 (+18 level increase)

nature: bold

moves: cross chop, mega punch, seismic toss, karate chop

stats: 144/113/84/82/101/141

you may notice that all of my pokemon have remarkably high speed. this is because i trained them in a place where they got tons of speed ev's which really made the speed alot

Uhh erick, I don't think it's a good idea to have your whole team @ Lv. 50 when you still have to face Sabrina, Koga and about 20 more trainers cause they will disobey you. My advice: get sabrina first, then face everyone else so it will be much easier to battle.

I actually grinded my swinub in HG from Lv. 23 to Lv. 31 in the course of 3 hours, so do know how to do it. I just wish I could get more rematches in that game because I really want my team above Lv. 45 and I got only three rematches through the whole 34 hours that I've played (they all came right after beating claire).

If you want to find me outside of Psypoke, you can find me on the pokemon lab server, look for steamroll. They will also be updating to the Gen V metagame soon so that will be worth checking out, too.

@ b-mac.

I'm not saying you don't know how to do it. I was just explaining that I used an excellent spot to grind up.

May I advise for you looking at a list of the people who will battle and calling them?

I picked up battles really fast that way. Another excellent spot to grind in HG/SS is the route before victory road by the old healing lady's house. Each poke there is about level 30 and gives off between 300-1000 exp if i remember correctly.

Also I have a badge that allows me to control traded pokemon up to level 50. MY own pokemon wont disobey me no matter how high I grind them. Regardless, Saffron is my next destination so the inversion in levels wont exsist for long.

I think badges only affect TRADED Pokemon . Pokemon you train should be fine .

And I'm not really sad over Garchomp , Sneasel's one of my favourites and I'm sure glad to have him in my team :D

A) Badges effect your pokemon too.
B) Wait for it. If you do get em too high WITHOUT the right badge THEY WILL DISOBEY YOU.

GofD, you're corrent in it that badges effect your own Poke'Mon, however, regarding levels and disobedience this is not the case. Badges allow you to use certain HM's outside of combat as well as giving your Poke'Mon certain nifty boosts. However, your own Poke'Mon (The ones you catch yourself and therefore has the same OT name as yourself and ID # as yourself) will never disobey you regardless of how high you decide to train them.

This concept holds true up to the 4th Gen games HG/SS and is very likely to roll over to B/W unless for some very strange reason Gamefreak decided to be a jerk and change it.

So, as far as levels go, badges only affect Poke'Mon not originally caught by you. I.E. Traded Poke'Mon.

I stated before someone questioned me since they are my own pokemon that i will not have obedience issues.

You need to look up your facts before you start judging.

Also; as a ninja they follow my ways or immediately get released.

update: traded {graveler} to a friend and got a {golem}

Current update:
I am battling my way through the water route around cinnabar island. I went to the power plant and caught a magnemite (immediately named static) @ Lv. 25.

Team (lvs. , stats, and movepool plus a little description)
stats will be hp/atk/def/satk/sdef/spd

-static {magneton} Lv. 39
100/62/94/89/61/72
Movepool of spark, supersonic, swift and lock-on
-- I raised it to Lv. 38 so it could learn swift before allowing it to evolve. It is a very effective battler right now, being in about 100 battles in a row without taking more than 30 hp damage total.

-screech {golbat} Lv. 43
129/94/75/65/73/102
Movepool of air cutter, mean look, confuse ray and bite
-- Why won't the damn game let you evolve? I want a crobat now!!! (He's been able to evolve for 10 levels now and it's annoying) I've never had a crobat before, too.

-Tiny {snorlax} Lv. 43
202/111/75/72/99/50
Movepool of headbutt, body slam, rest and block
-- absolutely no special what so ever, and I want a more diverse movepool for him. His speed looks a little high too, I guess he either racking up a lot of speed ev's or his speed IV is 31, idk. The other snorlax I had in HG was Lv. 63 and only had a speed of 48, so that's why I'm confused.

-Houdini {hypno} Lv. 44
145/83/73/74/121/72
Movepool of headbutt, hypnosis, meditate and psychic
-- don't know whether to give hime dream eater or not... still very useful even rhough he has a bit of a shallow movepool.

-Crossbone {marowak} Lv. 45
122/90/101/60/77/65
Movepool of bonemerang, false swipe, headbutt and focus energy
-- with a thick club I do say this one is my big attacker. I can KO just about anything even or lower in levels with a headbutt, and I need to break off from the headbutt love, it's a good move if the poke can get STAB using it but otherwise it's just a hax move.

-Leonardo {blastoise} Lv. 47
141/82/115/93/127/105
Movepool of Surf, bite, mega punch and rapid spin
-- just gonna make him learn a TM; I am split between ice beam and toxic. Haven't bothered using him lately because my team can handle themselves, he sort of takes the leader role of my team.

Goals:
1) Get all pokes atleast Lv. 45
2) Cinnabar Gym by Wednesday
3) overhauls of the movepools of golbat, snorlax and marowak.

-thank you for clearing this up, I kind of wish I kept my mouth shut about that topic.

Actually, I've been sorta...Mew sharing so-to-say before the month is over. Three of my Poke'Mon are 70, one is 66 and two are 60. I haven't gotten my seventh badge yet. Working on it.

(Do you always have to change avvys so quickly?)
Update: Violet ( {rattata} ) died. :(
I forgot to get potions and was trying to level it up to evolve it. And then it got pwned by a Team Rocket Grunt after battles with wild Pokemon.
RIP Violet...

I live in a neighborhood of a lot of kids ranging in age from nine to fourteen. The majority I know are through my younger sister and even younger brother. There's no wireless internet nearby (with the exception of the library, however it's about a 45 min walk from the neighborhood) but I readily have it at my house. I help those with HGSS to get a Mew. Then, there are those that only possess DP. I borrowed at friends HG to get myself a Mew (I don't own HGSS myself). With that, I get a Mew to trade to them. Mew sharing.

It depends on what rules you're using in your own Nuzlocke challenge. The only three, from my understanding, that you need to follow are:

fullerfast wrote:
Nickname all Pokemon
Catch first Pokemon on each route
Faint = Death


I'm just personally following all the rules, with a few additional rules I threw in there to enhance the challenge.

That seems interesting.. Mew Sharing hmm..

Anyway , I personally find that if you buy Potions, the challenge basically isnt there anymore..

I decided that since so many people were doing this, that I would go ahead and give it a try on my Diamond version which I have already beaten like 8 times so I know it pretty well. At the moment, I just restarted the game so I soft reset for a Naive Chmichar with some decent IVs and finally caught an Adamant Starly 8 tries later. So atm, here is my team;

Ichiban {chimchar} @ Level 13
Scratch, Leer, Ember, Taunt

Red Robin {starly} @ Level 11
Tackle, Growl, Quick Attack, Wing Attack

The next thing I look to invest in is a good roserade, in order to get some type coverage and have a Spc Attacker when it evolves. So far, I have done nothing but grind in the wild. I haven't even gotten through the first route of trainers after you get the pokeballs from the Prof Rowan's assistant.

You're actually trying for natures and IV's? I never bothered as the challenge doesn't promote any competitive catches really, but to each their own. I thought it was too time consuming, and when you get to the more versatile Poke'Mon later in the game it gets more difficult. (I never reset the game myself to try to catch any Poke'Mon I wanted, otherwise I'd have that Growlithe right now instead of Persian). It gives a feel of uncertainty and forces you to use Poke'Mon and natures you normally never would. Like me and my Wigglytuff. Never used one in the past, but now I love them.
