Never said it would be. It's just that Kyogre often, in the past, has carried Spout, a second water move for after it has taken damage, Thunder, and Ice Beam, and now, only one would even hit. True. Though my point was more just in how in that situation, Groudon would be getting STAB, Kyogre wouldn't. I'm still not sure which game I'll get first. Will get both, always do, but past two sets I've gotten one game then gotten the other a month or two later. Split on which to go with first because I skipped Gen 3 as a kid so I really have no nostalgia for it at all. Really kind of the least interested I've been in a Pokemon game because of that since it's not like this one has new Pokemon or anything and I don't really care that much about Mega Evolutions. Still be a day one purchase. Similarly, no clue on a starter. I probably won't use it anyway, but I don't really like any of the Gen 3 starters. I am the same way, even though Gen 3 is the gen that made me get into pokemon in a deeper level with all the ivs/evs, berrie,contests and abilities. Either way go with Alpha then Omega. I am going with Treeko since I've never used him before.

Thanks to GTS last night, I got a Japanese Meowth in exchange for a Dratini I bred (Ivan Drago).

I'll go with Treecko since I already have a Mudkip and Torchic, but no Treecko.

I've kind of thought about going with a theme team. I was thinking of trying an all-dog team with only three Pokemon on me (yeah, take a guess where I got that idea), but using Houndoom in my current playthrough of X (really need to get back to that) has kind of screwed that up. Basically limits me to Furfrou, Arcanine, and Granbull as my only options that I haven't really used before, and I dunno if I'm as interested if I'm handcuffed into one specific team for it.

Was going to use Treecko as it's the one I've used the least between the 3, but quickly changed my mind once I saw Mega Swampert. That thing looks like it'll just f*** your shit up thrice over, and it helps that Mudkip is my favorite of the Hoenn starters.

I know some don't really like that Mega Sceptile got the Electic immunity, given it is Grass/Dragon and therefore already took little electric damage, but this does also mean it's basically immune to paralysis, which is good for a speedy pokemon. Short of Body Slam or Glare, you're pretty much in the clear, since it also benefits nicely from the "Grass types are immune to powder moves" buff they got in this generation.

Finally got around to acquiring a Vivillon via evolution. I now have Fancy Pattern and Modern Pattern on my Pokedex. Since this was my first Vivillon I evolved from Scatterbug, I'd rather catch another Scatterbug to trade with the GTS and acquire a new pattern Vivillon. I tend to hold a soft spot for the first 'Mon of its kind that I catch.

Just turned on my 3DS to find out that my Starly that I put in the GTS was exchanged for not just a Spearow... but a shiny Spearow!

What EV spread would you guys recommend for a Lax (Def+/Sp. Def-) Empoleon? My first instinct is to max out both Defense and Special Attack.

Ugh, found so many Jirachi named "F*** YOU" on the GTS (not that I had anything they wanted).

If you don't get to at least 100 shiny pokemon before Nov 21 that shiny quest shall be deemed a failure.
