Playing through FireRed with Pokemon I've never used before, and it is a bitch to grind an Oddish in grass areas that always contain a bunch of inescapable Pidgey's. Don't worry Vileplume makes it allllll worth it. Back in my Pokemon Yellow playing days I used to insist upon myself that I only use Ash's original squad (with evolutions allowed) - Pikachu/Pidgeot/Venusaur/Blaistoise/Charizard and.... Butterfree. As you can imagine Butterfree was always the weak link in the squad and I had to constantly babysit it through the elite four. Butterfree kicks ass in the remakes. Ontop of the cool additional moves, it's ability Compound Eyes is a godsend. And yeah, I taught my Oddish Secret Power (best decision ever), it evolved to Gloom, and now it fits nicely into my team and is no longer the weak link. I wanted to evolve it to a Bellossom at first, but seeing as how the only Sun Stone in the game is available after the Elite Four, I'm gonna settle on Vileplume, which is just as fine.

I'm getting ready to ship off a bunch of Pokémon I want to keep to my Black version so I can replay White, now that I've got all of my breeding done. I'm thinking about doing Emerald again first, though, since my Pokémon stock on that game is super depleted from Pal Parking basically everything to SoulSilver.
Playing through with Pokémon I've never used before sounds really appealing, so I'm going to do that no matter what I play. Mixing it up should be great fun.
And yeah, Compoundeyes Butterfree is amazing. I was stunned at how much better it is when I tried using one in SoulSilver.

Of all the pokemon only Hypno really comes across as being firmly on the evil side. Tell me about it! EVERY picture of Hypno is unmistakably evil.

10 hours of the GSC Game Corner/Lucky Channel tune. I was so addicted to this song when I used to play this, let's see how long I can go.
What are/were some of your favorite songs from the games?

Tons of great music in the series and I'd be hardpressed to pick a favorite, but so it doesn't get overlooked let's give a nod to the Deoxys theme.

So, full set of the gym leaders for Black & White 2 is out and... Yeah, what the hell's the logic of only the first three gyms being new? I like the idea of some repeat ones, but all of the new ones coming first?
Then there's the fact that there still isn't a f***ing Dark gym. Also really wish they'd drop the whole eight gyms thing in general and go up to twelve.

So I am picking up Conquest in three days. I am a sucker for Pokemon and KOEI strategy games so it's no real surprise that I'm buying it.

CONQUEST! Totally picking this up today. I've been itching for a new tactics game and it featuring Pokemon was just magic.

I'll probably pick up Conquest at some point myself, but not really rushing to. Not much of a fan of what I've played of the genre, and more importantly I really don't have a lot of money to throw around right now.

Starting off with an Eevee & Jigglypuff sucks, but so far, Conquest is awesome!

Will get it as soon as I can. At least I know THIS one'll be around, unlike Gungnir apparently.
