Word, its December 2011?

[Ayeun]

Leveling up on route 3...

Just set them up and go afk for a few minutes. Come back and do it again.

[Mew Master]

Max level... started getting bored and leveled the other catches I have. All I'm missing is a Clefairy from Mount Moon D:

[Crazy Elf Boy]

Max level for my main party, now its starting to get a tad boring.

[Ayeun]

Max level party, but I cant beat Mt Moon.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Mt. Moon is scary. Many people have died there. No one crosses that mountain alive...

[Mew Master]

Gotta juggle your PKMN at Mt Moon, My team consisted of a Mankey, Butterfree, Geodude, Pikachu, Charmeleon, and a Pidgeotto.

Pidg used Whirlwind to keep the Blue Bar Geodude's back, while Butterfree, Pikachu, and Charmeleon would pound on the green bars, then switch them over to thelp kill the Geodude, while Mankey moved to take on the Blue Bar Geodude coming on the other side. I had MY Geodude set for Magnitude/Rock throw to help deal out some good AOE damage. Took several tries at Max Level to get it done.

[Ayeun]

Ok, on Mt Moon, how do you get a pokemon on top of the bottom middle tower point?

[DarkestLight]

Only a Rock Pokemon goes there.

Denz: Mankey, Butterfree, Geodude, Pikachu, Charmeleon, and a Pidgeotto

Yeah my Team ..Sub Geodude for Beedrill and Sub Char for Ivy. Can't beat Mt Moon.

I caught Pikachu on some luck too. Mankey Seismic tossed him and he didn't Die, he had him for a second slam and I was like "EGADS POKEBALL DRAG!"

Pika growl is not working enough to turn the blue Geodudes back, and I deleted Whirlwind. Who the hell though that would be useful? >O Always get to Wave 9.

Edit: Beat it! Had to keep moving Pika. Awesome!

[Mew Master]

I had Beedrill and Rattata on my team for a while and couldn't deal enough damage to get Past Mt Moon, so I swapped them for a Geodude I caught on one of my tries and a Mankey from Rt 3 and just went at it. Had to keep moving Char back and forth, switching his moves between Dragon Rage/Ember depending on Blue/Green.

Pika is USELESS Against Geodude but a terror against everything else. I had Electro Jolt (the one that deals more damage against those that are slowed) and had Butterfree use String Shot as often as possible. However I wasn't dealing enough damage so I went:

Butterfree - Confusion
Pikachu - Electro Jolt
Charmeleon - Ember/Dragon Rage

Geodude - Magnetude

Pidgeotto - Whirlwind

Mankey - Focus Energy -> Seismic Toss

Still have to juggle your PKMN from damage dealers with speed against the faster creeps, then go all damage against those Geodudes while they're creepin along.

[Darth CookieMonster]

Darnit i missed it. ima fudgeup.

[DarkestLight]

Denz: What? I had Pika use Growl, and it makes them go the opposite direction. That worked WONDERS!

[Mew Master]

Pidge's Whirwind does the same thing. :/

[papabopp]

I feel slow. I'm just starting. SQUIRTLE FTW!

[papabopp]

how the fu** do you beat the blue bared pikas in viridian forest?

[RaZoR LeAf]

String Shot to slow them down, then hit them hard. I found Butterfree's with Confusion and your starter's strongest move to be best. Something to lower their defence too if possible.

Still stuck on Mt Moon but according to the guys blog, he may tone down the difficulty on the next update. So yay.

[Mew Master]

Like I said, Mt Moon requires JUGGLING yer Pokes!

[DarkestLight]

I have a bad feeling that Juggling aspect is gonna be around for a while. Its not hard once you get Pika to lvl 12 xD

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Hey guys Pokkkemon anime UNOVA season started here in Finland thisday, itsawesome!

[Blademaster]

Nobody cares about Finland. SHUT UP ABOUT IT.

[Oslo]

I care about Finland! Whoo, Scandinavia! *fist bumps all of Finland*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

\m\ /m/

Skål!

Hey wait, sorry to break it up to you, but the the term 'Scandinavia' is for Denmark, Norway and Sweden only! Finland is mistakenly included often, but one should rather use the general term 'Nordic Countries' or perhaps 'Fennoscandia'.

My land is small, poor and lonely. Even after Cold War, neither are we a part of Western Europe, nor Mother Russia.

[Oslo]

M-my love is diminishing as we speak.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I still love Sweden and Norway. We share the same cultural heritage, and Swedish is still the second offical language of Finland.

I couldn't help posting the beginning of Unova season, and this is Sun Unova Beach Eatery.

[DarkestLight]

With all these newcomers, It really reflects the lack of referees we have. Apologies to everyone that have been waiting for battles to pick up. We will have some soon, so I implore you all to be patient a little while longer.

Meanwhile, I'll sweep some up.

[Crazy Elf Boy]

I have picked up 3 so far, yet with my current level of uni work I doubt I would be able to get more.

[DarkestLight]

No problem Elf. I just scrolled through the battles currently active-and big up to Cynder, nsmbwii, Olso and you for reffing. I-and the community-really appreciate your efforts. Every little bit counts.

Regarding that little point, I need to get that Newsletter stuff set up, I'm positive we got a lot to report.

[Oslo]

I have three and since I finished my last exam yesterday (huzzah!) I imagine I will take on a few more in the coming days and weeks.

[RaZoR LeAf]

I've had to knock back on reffing unfortunately, since the store I work at is starting it's main season of sales (camping) and it's having an effect on my regular time.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Hey Crazy Elf's new banner's cool! 1st Gen, 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen, 4rd Gen! Mikachu likes it. Do you have a 5th Gen Poke yet?

The other ASB banners aren't bad either, MeLoVeGhOsTs has had a cool sig for ages as well, but Elf still deserves a mention!

[Crazy Elf Boy]

I do have 5th gen, 36 of the little buggers. The only reason I don't have a banner for them yet is that at least half of them need nicknames. Plus I have been having trouble with image transparency so I will probably need to redo them.

[Blademaster]

That IS pretty clever...

[Mew Master]

I need to re-do my banner, the one currently in the Vs Seeker is a bit outta date. Plus I'm working on a Gym Team Banner as well...

[Crazy Elf Boy]

Ok 5th gen banner is done, 2 points to anyone who can tell me what their nicknames mean.

[chaos_redefined]

don't know all of them, but quezacotl was a god in an ancient religion, can't remember which one off the top of my head. master roshi was goku's sensei in DB/DBZ/DBGT, and i think master shen was roshi's sensei. Freeza would also be from there. Solid Snake and Revolver Ocelot are from the MGS series. The others are moving too quickly for me to pick up on before the next appears.

[Oslo]

Ahh, they're going so fast! Darmani/Din/Iron Knuckle are from Zelda, Serenity is from Firefly, Quezafdkljd is from Final Fantasy, Mandibles is from anatomy, Master Roshi/Freeza/Yamcha are from DBZ, Gears of War is self-explanatory, Solid Snake and Revolver Ocelot are from Metal Gear, Shao Lin is from... Shao Lin Showdown? That was a thing, right?

That's all I know without Google. Gimme mah points, sir. >O (I will also accept high-fives.)

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

4rd Gen!

Oops 4th Gen.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

You do realize that both your Krabby and Dweble are named Crayk, right?

[DarkestLight]

Red October was from that movie with SEAN CONNERY !

[Mew Master]

I'll take "SWORDS" for 500 Alex."

[Crazy Elf Boy]
