Pokemon Silver

With the release of Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver I was able to get a copy of Pokemon Silver from a friend of mine. That game is still my only experience of the second generation of Pokemon. Anyway the Cyndaquil line is my favorite line in Johto, so that where Explotaro came from. The name is a reference Gold's Typhlosion from the Pokemon Adventure series, This will not be the only time I get a name from Pokemon Adventure. This is actually the only time I've ever played through a region for the first time without picking the water type.
Holmes came about because of how excited I was for the Sherlock Holmes movie. I don't remember why I got pure poison type when pure poison is such a bad offense type, but it did have the move Glare. It was more support then anything else. Zen was a powerhouse with the last gym and the champion both being dragon types. Cerbirdus was added right before the elite for. I liked the pun of a name I gave it so I kept it.
This would be my first instance of a five Pokemon team, and I think it worked quiet well. Next time we'll get in the remakes of generation two.

Pokemon Platinum team

I don't know how it happened, but I had created my own team. What's more I actually have things to talk about with this team. First off I did know how to spell tsunami at first so my Empoleon's real name was sunami until my dad corrected me. Pitch Dark was suppose to be Pitch Black, but character limits said no to that. Crusher didn't actually have a nickname. Garchomp is just that awesome of a name. B.J. was actually the name of my friends Infernape, so I named my own fire type after her's. Clover is the luckiest damn Pokemon I've ever had. It would dodge things left and right. It would always get critical. And it would survive hits it really should not. Clover was the only name that fit. Buzz Shock was named after the Ben 10 alien Buzz Shock.

Pokemon Pearl team

For those of you who have plated through Pearl you may notice something...off about my team. Do not fear. I will inform you. 4 of those Pokemon can't actually be found until the post game. Now this will be the only time I bring up an after game team. The reason I did it here was because if I didn't then the team in standard play would have just been King and Talk-a-lot. So instead of just making Fire Red again I went with this team.

I guess the only other thing of note to mention is that because I had no friends with Pokemon growing up Terrahorn was a Ryhdon for most of the time.

Pokemon Emerald Team

Hey people. It's time for my next Pokemon team. This one was from Pokemon Emerald. I never played Pokemon Ruby or Sapphire, so no teams from those games. Anyway on to the team.
For a long while Marshal was my only Pokemon. As such it power leveled really quickly. I could earthquake everything. I really liked Ash's tokoal in the show, so I caught one when I saw it. Toothbrush was actually a trade from a friend of mind who had reached the Safari Zone long before I did. Phany and Donhan are some of my favorite Pokemon, so I was happy to get them.

And I know what your thinking "Why did you name your Donphan Toothbrush?" When I was growing up I had this big stuffed elephant that I named Toothbrush. It was named that because their was an animal show I watched as a kid. One of those episodes that an elephant that they named toothbrush. And that is the Secret Origins of Toothbrush.

As you can tell the team as a whole is horrible for fighting water types. As such I lost to the Champion a few times. So when I found Rayquazza I caught it and used it to win. I wasn't the best player of Pokemon at the time.

And their you have it. Join me next time as I take a look at the fourth generation of Pokemon as I slowly begin to learn about teams.

Pokemon Fire Red team

So a while back my sister asked me what my Pokemon team was. I told her my favorite competitive team at the time, but this got me thinking. I had made a whole lot of teams in various Pokemon Games. As such I looked backed in my mind's eye, and made some photo shopped images on paint of the teams I originally bet the games with. I originally posted them on facebook, so with me just completing a new game I thought I'd post them here as well. I'll also be going in a little more detail about them. So let us now begin with the first Pokemon game I ever played.
