Nobody gets first route trash either. That would be just cruel.

Hey now, I remember my second pokemon, a Rattata being groomed into a hyper-fanged, badass Radicate in the first game.

Granted, I wouldn't want that as my starter for this game, but still.

I believe I had Venasaur, Raticate, Pidgeot, Lapras, Arcanine, and a Kadabra(had no friends back then, and couldn't be bothered to trade him, not that he needed it back then).

Granted, this was just to play the game and beat the elite four. I didn't bother with any of the tournaments or group battles or whatever that came later.

My first game was Sapphire when I was in 3rd or 4th grade or so... I recall my first team being Swampert, Mightyena, Swellow, Cacturne, Tropius, and Ninetales. As for my current ridiculously powerful contest team, it's a bit more balanced.

Scizor, Breloom, Absol, Quagsire, Bastiodon, Xatu. Most, if not all, are weaker Pokemon most people don't tend to use. I like a challenge. Generally I send out the last four first and then use Breloom to frustrate my enemy if I'm not doing well enough. If anything survives that monster, my Scizor is nigh unbeatable.

I remember feeling bad for the bug pokemon back in the old gold/silver days. I took on a challenge game and used only bug pokemon. That was back before they added a bunch of mix types that are put together with bugs.

They had bug/steel back in gold/silver which is one of the best type combos you could possibly have. Of course neither Scizor or Forretress had any good moves back then.

Too bad fire is so effective, though. There are a lot of neat new bug types in the new games, I might just try a bug-only run.

Try Felius. I accidentally replied all when I told you to get on the server yesterday, and he thought the message was for today so he got on this morning.

That said I think if we don't hear from king by 3 pacific (About 2 hours) the last spot will go to the first person to send us a sheet and a survey. If you send Kuji a sheet, he will send you a survey if the spot hasn't been filled yet.


Or King can just ninja me. That works too.

I could hop on, but my Bio isn't completed due to me not playing pokemon in a long time/procrastination.
