Now, JUDGE.

[Hawk Hart]

Give us levels because of stats and all that.

[Johnny B. Decent]

I only just got a DS, and so the SS/Black thing are more of a project. All the Emerald's right now are 55-ish, as I'm ready to take on the Elite 4 + 1.

[Johnny B. Decent]

Updated with a FireRed team.

[Stu]

I thought we were discussing Poke Teams. As in ..... yeahhhh, I'd better not go there.

[Johnny B. Decent]

Sex.

['Foretold' Joker]

Well from a purely competitive point of view the HMs are mostly useless bar Surf and Waterfall so after the Elite 4 you can ditch those and give them to some low level fodder and give your decent Pokemon another more useful move.

So for instance Cut (Is a poor move) and on Steelix is useless so instead give it Crunch (Dark) or one of the elemental Fang moves for versatility.

[Johnny B. Decent]

I don't really do the competive thing, I'm mostly just playing through the games.

['Foretold' Joker]

Ah well then, your Steelix will have a fine and dandy time Cutting through the shrubbery on your way to being champion.

I'm not really competitive, and I don't even keep Cut on any of my starters.

This is why I keep a derp around (either Bibarel or Tropius) to do the grunt work.

[Johnny B. Decent]

I'm not a really big HM Slave guy either, mostly Steelix is around for anybody who's weak to Rock/Ground/Steel moves.

[The Ichi]

I see you didn't pick Charmander as your starter. Why is this?

Because I always go Water and he's only good for 1 gym in the original.

Also, although Coliseum made you chose select pokemon and had to deal with the Shadow stuff, at least there, you never had to deal with HM's.
