Well alot of people mindlessly examine the Tv when they see it (Like me. ::)) I will share with the the extremely strange names of mai pokemons. No hatin'.

Lara the lapras

Luxa the luxray

Nora the Rapidash

Pidge the (Extremely AWSUM) Pidgeot

Groll The torterra

And Gena the gengar

All are female except for Groll. (Darn 25% chance of female starter...Makes it that much harder to breeed...) I also posted my friend code on the friend code board. I also love ampharos. Who remembers the good times when, Whenever someone had hyper beam they were feared by all? Now we have all kinds of other moves.

Ampharos was one of my favorite generation II Pokemon.  I think I had a pretty powerful one in my Silver game, but the file got deleted.  Since we are discussing mains now, my Blue team is:

Charizard (picked him because of the inavailability of Growlithe/Arcanine in Blue)
Gyarados
Jolteon
Mewtwo (recently replaced Kadabra)
Graveler (haven't traded with myself to evolve it into Golem yet)
Fearow

I also have a Victreebel that I throw in there, but it is only at level 35 so it can't compete with the Elite four.  I use Articuno as my dragon slayer against Lance.

No, You need not. Wobbuffet Kills, OMG like the best trick pokemon ever. It's ability gives it power of a exotic pokemon.

Actually, I was referring to my name. :P

But yes, Wobbuffet does pwn. ;)

... I know, I'm not stoopid. DW I have a Togepi I'm trying to train to togetic for a para-flincher if it works out I'm saying bye to Gena. At least for a bit even tho sleep eating is fun... :D

My favourite is definitely Suicune.
It's very pretty.

I had crystal and I loved my suicune to death. Then i lost crystal...It nade me so sad. Another pokemon i like is Treeko. Or any grass starter. They pack the most power out of starters.

Yes. Even though it's a horrible fighter unless you really know how to use it.

Um... yeah, I think this topic won't get very many actual pokemon on it, I think most of the active members have told us their favourite pokemans. (did I mention I like Skarmory? It was my bird pokemon in Emerald before Rayquaza came along) I'm actually kinda curious what everyone's type is.

My favourite pokemon type has to be Steel.... They're so awesome. : D I'm not a big fan of a lot of the pokemon's looks, but stats-wise, they're pretty awesome. They also can't be poisoned!

The follow up would probably be electric; they're a nice, strong group with relatively high speed and attack.

Water has too many easily exploited Weaknesses... :-* Ghost is great, And dragon is the one with the least weaks.

MagmarFire

I thought Steel had the least weaknesses, having about...ten types that aren't very effective against it. :-\

Lemme check my handy poketch

Dragon is weak against Ice and Dragon

Steel is Fire ground and fight and has one less resist.

Sorry Dragon wins.

Hi no Seijin

Let's see, a break down of Pokemon weakness:

Normal is weak against Fighting.
Fire is weak to Water, Ground, and Rock.
Water is weak to Electric and Grass.
Electric is weak to Ground.
Grass is weak to Fire, Ice, Poison, Flying, and Bug.
Ice is weak to Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel.
Fighting is weak to Flying and Psychic.
Poison is weak to Ground and Psychic.
Ground is weak to Water, Grass, and Ice.
Flying is weak to Electric, Ice, and Rock.
Psychic is weak to Bug, Ghost, an Dark.
Bug is weak to Fire, Flying, and Rock.
Rock is weak to Water, Grass, Fighting, Ground, and Steel.
Ghost is weak to Ghost and Dark.
Dragon is weak to Ice and Dragon.
Dark is weak to Fighting and Bug.
Steel is weak to Fire, Fighting, and Ground.

So, yeah, Grass and Rock have the most weaknesses with five each.  However, considering that Steel is immune to Poison and is resistant to everything else but Water and Electric, it tends to be better off in a fight.  Of course, Dragon has some powerful moves.

Dark/Ghost for the win, though.  No weaknesses and immune to three types.

Gyarados should be Water/Dragon, not Water/Flying.  It can't learn Fly, which seems to be essential for any Flying-type Pokemon.  It can, however, learn Dragon-type moves.  Seriously, wtf?
