I know, but also want to fill out the Dex as much as I can before the battle. I finished evolving Butterfree and Beedrill, but since I don't plan to use them I stored them in my box.

What sort of Gengar will you be using? I was thinking about using one for this playthrough

Mono type Ice I assume? How's that working out for you? I've thought about doing a mono run, but I could never decide which type I wanted to use.

It hasn't been too bad, except for fighting types. The girl with two lucario's was impossible for me to beat, until I got a friend of mine to trade me a dawnstone so I could evolve Snorunt into Frosslass.

Also I found out that Bergmite doesn't get a Physical Ice type move until level 26.

I'm about to go up against Korrina, but I had trouble finding an HM slave. I wanted a slightly cute Pokémon so I picked Linoone, and I'm training it now. It can only learn 3 HM moves anyway so it can still have a "good" move.

I was supposed to train them earlier but I never did it because I thought Bank was never going to come out. Now I'm in the point where I should Super Train my whole team because I can't stand them having shit EVs. The problem is, I tried that shit once and realized how tedious and slow it was. It will take days of crappy ball games until my team is ready. I completely lost all my motivation and decided to start my Black 2 save again. How can I make Super Training fun? I really want to play with my Steel team but I just can't stand the idea of Super Training for almost a week.

It won't take a week, but you are right, super training is incredibly boring. I wish they'd put some fun minigame instead. I wouldn't even care if it doesn't fit the theme of "training", put something like tetris, snake, or some card game there instead so I could actually have fun while doing it.

EVs don't mean shit in game. Just leave your 3DS on with super training open with some mons punching bags to get reset bags, use them once you can efficiently horde train if you really want to have good EVs for online battling.

it's taken me 2 weeks to get through route 17 cuz I've been grinding as many mons as I can so I can have options for facing the E4.

Nothing wrong with letting /vp/ know about your ingame progress.
But let's get something straight.
If you need help with in-game team building or experience any difficult with gen 6 outside of self-imposed challenge runs, video games are not for you. Pokemon has never been easier than it is now.

>EVs don't mean shit in game.

I know, it's just muh autism. It's worse because you can actually see your Pokemon's EVs. The situation is absolutely catastrophic because literally none of the early route Mons give Attack or Special Attack EVs so all my Mons will end up with absolute shit stats. I don't want that, but I don't want to Super Train either. I'm desperate. Maybe I should just play Black 2 since I already came up with a nice team to use.

You can't get a Dawnstone in game? Well that sounds dumb. And sorry to hear about Bergmite, but atleast you only have a level left.

>>17938144
Thanks I may switch Focus Blast out for something else, but other than that that sounds good to me.

>>17938441
I found d that Linoone and Bibarel are both great HM slaves. I use Linoone though because I think it's cooler looking than Bibarel.

You can get a dawnstone, but not before getting surf.

Also it's horribly annoying when Eevee tries to evolve every single time it levels up

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that did this. It took me over 100 hours to have atleast 50 choices to choose from. In my last run. A lot of expected bros came from that as well.

>>17938661
I don't need any help. The only challenge in this game is the Fairy Gym, but everything else is a cakewalk.

Diggers, Sylvain and Gourgeist were good to me. Have you considered them?

Well, there's one that you can surf for on an early Route, or there's the option of beating every regular Super Training regimen, and beating the new one with the Gallade Balloon Bot until you get one.

Now that you mention everstone, why is there not a stone that completely stops you from getting xp? It's annoying having to not use my favourite monsters because they get overleveled even by only using them in gym battles.

I doubt you guys give a shit, so I'm playing through Soul Silver just to kill some time really since I've played Gen 6 to the pulp so I'm taking a break from it. After besting SS, I'll be replaying Black 2.
I just got to Olivine but I'm stuck because of no water type. I have to wait until the Pokeathlon has Water Stones. My team is
Level 25 Flaffy
Level 24 Quilava
Level 24 Togetic
Level 23 Meowth
Level 5 Eevee ( going to evolve before training it)
Level 24 Nidorino

Feels better, man.
I've got a Quilladin and Pidgeotto, and just got the Squirtle from Sycamore. I'm autistic about nicknames and had one planned, but she turned out to be a girl and now I'm stuck.

Gonna fill up the last three slots with Aurorus, Garbodor, and Dedenne.

maybe it's just because your pokemon choices end up being so predictable and lame due to nuzlocke rules

I've done ones on Emerald (ended badly), SS (victory), and White (lost interest halfway through).

I love the thrill of having to keep your Pokemon alive and adapting to fallen party members, but grinding is shitty and unfun and I've tried it so many times already that I just don't care for it any more.

I'll probably try a mono run instead.

I'm also doing a heart gold bro-edition. Soft resetting for a good Gyarados, team is Venomoth, Slowking, Quilava, Sunflora, Noctowl, and one other that I'm forgetting (and I might just have five). I raised an Umbreon and a Weepinbell for a while but dropped them both due to no useful level-up movepool.

Umbreon is pretty hard to use in game. Your best moves are like Payback and Confuse Ray. I guess in Gen 5 you get to use Foul Play and that's nice.
