[King Silva]

Electivire
Landorus
Hydreigon

As for my current Black team they are level 91-93 now.

do I honestly need a master ball for Ho-Oh? I caught Rayquaza (In Ruby I might add) with ultra balls btw my current team is:
Pidgeotto LV 26
Flaffy LV 28
Golem LV 37
Poliwag LV 12
Tauros LV 21
Typhlosion LV 43

[King Silva]

You don't have to use the Master Ball on Ho-Oh but it makes it easier.

You really need to train Poliwag and Tauros if you plan to keep them!

[Ben - #6 Munchie]

There is no Pokémon(bar only Mewtwo from Gen I) than needs a masterball to my knowledge.

poliwag is more for surfing and other water travel I aways switch him out before a gym/important battle.
I am training tauros however

[King Silva]

^ Okay.

So who do you switch in when it is a gym or other hard fight?

[Ben - #6 Munchie]

You should still try and evolve it into Poliwhirl, and then into either Poliwrath or Politoed just in case you need more back up.

LV 23 Nidorino at the moment I am gonna train him too just not right now I wanna get out of the ice cave first

Agreed.

Either one would be a great addition to a final team.

I agree too I am doing that once I hit Kanto though
I beat the 8th gym leader with just my Typhlosion and Golem on first try pretty cool experience for me. gonna work on making Pidgeotto Pidgeott before I go to Elm also where do I go to actually recieve my 8th badge after winning

[Ben - #6 Munchie]

The cave behind the gym.

[Deleted]

kk did it I'm up to the 5 kimono girls I can't beat the last one though and since they are all water I trained my Fanfy to LV 30 (still gonna get more training) Ampharos, I also caught a Magneton which is LV 17 and will be trained after a little day care work

A comic version of the upcoming episode featuring Homika has revealed a few more details. First, the badge earned for defeating the Tachiwaki City Gym Leader Homika is the Toxic Badge. This badge is confirmed to be the same shape as the one seen in the badge case and so confirms that Homika is the second Gym Leader of the game. We'll bring more as and when it comes.

For those of you with the international games, the current Dream World Expansion, Pokémon Movie, is due to end at the end of tomorrow. This expansion, which ties in with the movies: Pokémon Black - Victini & Reshiram and Pokémon White - Victini & Zekrom, doesn't give any special Pokémon but, when you send the event Reshiram/Zekrom to the Dream World, gives you access to a special mini-game which accesses the Reshiram & Zekrom C-Gear skins respectively. Be sure to get them while you can.

is it hard to catch Entie or Raikou? cause I got Entie on red now and I wanna know whether to use Ultra or a master ball and Raikou is on orange also with Poliwag and Magnaton in daycare my current team is
Golem LV 39
Pidgeotto LV 31
Typhlosion LV 47
Ampharos LV 30

[Ben - #6 Munchie]

They're not that hard, it's just encountering them that's difficult!

[King Silva]

Yeah you need to have a faster pokemon to put them to sleep and or use mean look to trap them.

False swipe also helps to get them down to as low HP as possible.

For you you could really use Suicune however you can't catch it til later so that sucks.

You certainly don't need Entei but if you manage to catch Raikou I would swap out Ampharos.

[Deleted]

K guys beat the elite 4 and now I'm off to Kanto,caught Raikou and my Typhlosion was LV 61 gonna see who else was on my team later for now it's just cool for me to be where I'm at

[King Silva]

Cool masspick.

I got the 6th badge in Platinum and my team is all level 50 now.

I am going to trade them over to my main Platinum so they can be EV trained.

After they are done and probably around level 60 [I'll train them some] I'll trade them back to finish the game.

[stonecold316]

Well, I now have Thundurus, which means, I now have Landorus! Sure, it cost me an Umbreon, but those are easy enough to breed.
