Pokemon!

[Makoes]

Been working with my tablet more and since Kolink on pokefarm is hosting a contest involving a pokemon character of his,
I thought I'd give it a try. So, here is his Dark Zoroark that I did. Still need to redo the background for it and put it all together, but its a bit of an improvement from my Winter Sawsbuck

[Silivren]

Thats really good! I love the texture of the hair.

[Makoes]

thanks yeah, finding a brush that would give me a hair-like texture was fun...Now to just get the finishing touches done on it and then get the background for it.

[Crotalus Horridus]

My full Pokemon White Team;

Level 66 Hydreigon named DesuGidora with the moves Crunch, Hyper Voice, Dragon Pulse, and Dragon Rush.
Level 81 Altaria named... I feel bad about this... Swag. He has the moves Ice Beam, Dragon Meteor, Sky Attack, and Fly.
Level 79 Tyranitar named Gojira with the moves Hyper Beam, Earthquake, Stone Edge, and Crunch.
Level 78 Infernape named Bubbles with the moves Acrobatics, Brick Break, Close Combat, and Flare Blitz.
And finally, level 83 Rampardos named Gojira (Didn't change it before transferring him!) with the moves Head Smash, Swords Dance, Earthquake, and Dig. Rampardos is so high of a level because he's so powerful, he has a Brave Nature (+Attack -Speed) and an attack stat at 345. Be afraid, be VERY afraid.

I feel tiny now.

[Makoes]

Your not at max level yet, so he's only going to get stronger He'll probably be around 398 at lv 100 which is good. Do you EV train at all or just random grind?

I do use pokegen, so for me its a bit easier getting the pokemon I want. But I have gone through the in-game grind leveling pokemon up and EV training the "Hard" way many times, I've been playing pokemon since it first came out in 1995.

[Aleu]

I'm highly considering rerunning one of my games with a mono team. I've really only be using my SoulSilver to get certain moves through breeding and/or move tutor. (Thank you AR. XD) However, since I'm rapidly approaching the time where I don't need anymore Pokemon on SS for the time being and am considering challenging myself to another restart of the game... I just don't know what type yet.

I just grind, I find it easier then EV training. However, my main strategy with him is just to Swords Dance spam until it's maxed and rip through everything with Head Smash (150 Power plus being Rock Type will give it a same type attack bonus).

[Makoes]

Yeah, sword dance and then Rock Smash 150 (225 with STAB) would hit pretty hard. Similar stratagiy that I use for my Haxorus and Bisharp. I just find the main problem with that stratagy is that pokemon with a really high atk/sp.atk tend to have really low def/sp.def, making them rather squishy.

Hmmm I wonder if I should make one of the open slots in my party for a Ninjask, then I could sword dance it up and baton pass to bring them out pre-powered up...*wonders off muttering*

[Makoes]

Anyone else pick up and are playing the pokemon Conquest game?
I find it a bit to linear compaired to what I am use to with pokemon, but I do like the stratagies required to keep everything running smoothly, and the battles are definitly different. Does bring back the good memories of playing Final Fantasy tactics. I wonder if/how evolution will play out in the game. well so far it just seems to randomly happen, the Warrior says something like "something is happening to <pokemon>" So far Shinx and a Starly have evolved. I wonder how eevee will evolve, I dont even know what I want it to become yet.

There is currently a wi-fi event on for it until dec 31st. and serebii has the currently released passwords for the game as well.

[Senna-Umbreon]

I WOULD have it, but Gamestop is all like "LOL NOPE. Even two days after it's supposed to be out, YOU STILL CAN'T GET IT FROM US UNLESS YOU PRE-ORDERED IT!"

..Needless to say.. I am pissed. I WANT THIS GAME, DANG IT!!!


Also, Crotalus.. You win for using Rampardos. Completely and utterly WIN. *Thumbs up*


Oh yeah, before I go.. I gotta say, I AM BEYOND ECSTATIC OVER KELDEO'S NEW FORM. EEEEEEE. HE LOOKS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE AND KICKASS AT THE SAME TIME! EEEEEEEEEEEE~! *Runs around spazzing*

[Serendipity82]

Did you try Toys R Us Senna? If Gamestop doesn't have what I'm looking for, Toys R Us usually does.

[Makoes]

Thats odd about the gamestop near you, I got my copy from gamestop a few minutes after they opened on release day. I didnt even pre-order.

The sacred beast forms that have come out for Keldeo and the Djinns are awsome, I am waiting for the AR searcher to hit the 3DS store so I can get them

Well so far in the game I've got 7 kingdoms under my flag, itsa bit hard to make sure when I go to "battle" another kingdom that I have the right warriors with me, invovles alot of "marching" and moving people around. Deffinitly going to be a game where its easy to losse track of something and make mistakes. But I will win! Aside from Eevee, I also have a spheal, though I really really hope that somewhere down the road I can get my hands on a Flygon :3

[Neilaren]

I plan to record a "blind" Let's Play of Pokémon Conquest (where I've never played it and as such everyone will get to see me be a total n00b), granted that I can record it nicely.
Nintendo really likes to keep people from being able to nicely capture their DS screens, so I have to use a camera and be all amateur about it.

[Makoes]

yes, they do make it hard to record from the DS.

How goes the Run through?

I'am up to nine kingdoms under my command now, just working on raising up my army, making it stronger. Almost out of room for recruiting, so mostly just training, still need to keep some free room so I can move my warriors around. I have an Axew now, hoping that it will evolve soon...Surprised that I havent seen a guide book for the game that shows what % pokemon evolve at. I am really loving that just having strong pokemon isnt enough in this game, some of the terrains really require a lot of thought on who to put where and when. Reminds me a bit of playing chess (which in turn reminds me of Kara chess). Oh, and I was surprised when -I- evolved, lol. Cool that the characters also change and get cooler looks as they advance.

Have you tryed an emulator? I don't know if there is a DS one but that would most likely make it easyer than a camera and stuff. Just a suggestion so don't yell at me

EDIT:Then again saying that I don't think the game itself would be out there. AH NVM haha!

[cowmuflage]

I've been drawing alot for Overload 2012 and one of the books i am doing is a bunch of Adventure time styled art and well I did a Pokemon themed one. It's just a rough sketch atm have not inked it yet gunna do that on Photoshop.

[cowmuflage]
