So Lapras isn't anymore in the Union Cave every Friday?Commi-Ninja wrote:Lapras is a good water/ice type. You can get it in the Safari Zone once you get the customization unlocked.

I love staryu to death, but it doesn't learn too many good moves, and element stones are hard to get.but I don't recommend it. You can always catch Red Gyarados

I might wake up early and go running. I also might wake up and win the lottery. The odds are about the same.

Lapras and Gyarados both win as water types. I LOVE the red Gyarados ♥Commi-Ninja wrote:Yep, so there you go if you were wanting to build an army of Lapras.conia wrote:LOL.GinRei wrote: It is: http://www.serebii.net/heartgoldsoulsil ... vent.shtml

How many people went for the notch-eared Pichu promo? It's sooooo cute... but kinda weak. Volt Tackle is so annoying.

Re: Pokemon!
i did, it's alright, i'm waiting for the flying and surfing pikachus myself, and i think gyarados fails as a water type, water types are weak enough to electricity without the flying type making it worsemangaluva wrote:Lapras and Gyarados both win as water types.

SO true. I HATE THAT! Gyarados shouldn't be flying.

Re: Pokemon!
Gyarados is already one of the top10 Pokemon, he doesn't need the added brokeness of Dragon typing. But yeah, he's pretty fail as a Water type unless you have Waterfall or Aquatail.

Those are Physical attacks,aren't they? If I recall correctly, Gyarados Attack is much better than Special Attack.GinRei wrote: Gyarados is already one of the top10 Pokemon, he doesn't need the added brokeness of Dragon typing.

Does it learn Ice Fang? I just discovered that move.
EDIT: Yes it does.Cool.

Re: Pokemon!
Gyarados would work fine, but I usually get one of those in Pearl and I'm looking for something I haven't tried before.
I actually decided to try a Krabby. So far it's not a bad little thing (it knows Mud Shot and its Stomp's really good). Plus I like watching it walk sideways behind me.

Have you seen Graveler follow you around? Probably about the funniest thing I've seen so far. (Though, Magikarp flopping around behind you is pretty funny, too.)conia wrote:I WANT A KINGLER JUST FOR THAT!!!pofa wrote: Plus I like watching it walk sideways behind me.![]()
