I’m playing the following following platinum rom hack, so its been fun having my Pokémon follow me around.

Just beat the elite four so now I’m probably wrapping up my time with the game, and will eventually move on to gen 5 (I’m playing through each gen moving through the regions, I’ve not really played any modern games so I’m looking forward to trying them :)

    Speaking of gen 5, here’s a very strong sun team I’ve crafted up in Volt White 2 Redux: Sunflora with Drought for setting up sun, Sawsbuck as my Chlorophyll sweeper, Volcarona as a Quiver Dance sweeper, Victini as a Choice Scarf revenge killer and scout, Excadrill for rapid spinning Stealth Rocks away and tanking hits, and Emolga for paralyzing threats and abusing Volt Switch. Even the water gym didn’t stand a chance!

      I really like really like the names Macarona and V

      That sounds like a blast! I’m not a super competitively knowledgeable player, this was actually my first platinum playthrough. Technically I started black or white when I was a kid, but I burned out and set the game down pretty quickly. I love Pokémon on paper but find a lot of the gameplay a bit tedious honestly 😅 I play mostly cause I fall in love with the Pokémon designs and the games are how you get to engage with them. Battleing is fun though.

      I had fun using curse and stalling my way through the elite four though lol. Except the fire guy, garchomp with earthquake one-shot all of his Pokémon which was kinda funny 😅
