Sal's Pokemon Pearl Log

[sal-sudairy]

Ok, I decided to make a log for my newly bought Pokemon Pearl game (I have two, btw. Two Diamonds also). I hope mods don't mind me multiposting, since this is a log. Oh, and don't think I'm stealing an idea. I told Akai I was making one. Feel free to post here, if you want.

lol. Yeah, I chose Dawn, even though I'm a guy. I named her Dawn, too, for lack of a better name. I'm currently training my Pokemon for a battle with Roark. I'm not going to train my Geodude because I want to replace her with another Pokemon. When I get to the forest with Rotom in it (forgot it's name), I'm going to catch a Misdreavus. My Pokemon are levels 9 and 10 now, except for Geodude, who's level 7 and, like I said before, is staying that way. I've given Turtwig a nickname. I named her Terra. My other Pokemon don't have nicknames, but I will nickname them at the Name Rater. I'm going to post summaries of my Pokemon. I guess I'll put one in every log. I'll put them in Spoilers to make it easier if you don't want to read it.

I'm going to put the Pokemon I have in my box. I won't do summaries because it will take way too long.

Box Pokemon:
Box 1:
Zubat, Level 7, Male

I hope you like my team. Tell me what you think about them, if you want. I would appreciate it if you would tell me how to improve my team. I'm off to train Shinx and Abra.

[Akai]

I'd train the Zubat, unless you just like Starly. If you get a Crobat, it's pretty strong.

[sal-sudairy]

I like Staraptor, so I'll keep the Starly. Thanks, though. I'm battling Roark now.

My whole team has change since the last log. I beat Roark, then went off to Floaroma Town. There I went to the Valley Windworks and stopped Team Galactic. I then continued to Eterna Forest and got through with PKMN Trainer Cheryl. Eterna Forest was pretty tough because Cheryl's Chansey only healed itself. It's a good thing my Pokemon was healed after every battle. I continued to Eterna City and got my second Gym Badge from Gardenia. Then I continued on the the Team Galactic building and stopped Commander Jupiter from stealing a Clefairy and a Buneary from the Bike Shop's Manager. I got a free bike and got through Cycling Road. There I stopped by Oreburgh City and healed my Pokemon. I then continued through Mt. Coronet and arrived at Hearthome City. I haven't done much here except go to a Pokemon Center to heal.

I evolved Terra and all of my other Pokemon, except for my newly caught Psyduck, which I put into my team instead of Geodude. My Pokemon learned a lot of new moves. I gave up on catching a Misdreavus, because it was daytime in Eterna Forest, so I just put in the Psyduck. I caught Psyduck at the Oreburgh Gate. I'm going to do a few contests before leaving to the next city. I hope to teach Staravia Fly before Saturday morning because I want to catch a Drifloon, which only appears on Friday nights.

I'm going to train up my Pokemon to at least level 20 before I continue out of Hearthome City. Again, please post of what you think of my team and your suggestions on how to make it better.

[Palkiarules233]

I noticed something weird:you named your Turtwig Terra,and in Sapphire I have a Blaziken named Piro.
Anyway,go for Staraptor.

There was no internet when I came back to Riyadh and we recently set it up, that's why I haven't said anything in about 5 days.

I got 4 Badges since my last log update. I just beat my the Roark's Dad, Byron at his Gym. It was a close fight. All of his Pokemon were Steel-type, so I thought Ponyta would help me, but she didn't. The heroes for this Gym battle were Psyduck and Luxray. Psyduck's Surf brought down the Steelix, while Luxray defeated Bastiodon with Bite. Terra also helped bring down a Bronzor, but Staravia, Bibarel, and Ponyta helped. All four of them fainted, but Terra fainted vs Steelix.

My Pokemon have really become a lot stronger and I caught a handful of wild Pokemon, including Ponyta. Luxio evolved at level 30 when I expected him to evolve at level around level 35. Same thing goes for Terra, but she evolved at level 32. I'm going to return Ponyta to her box and bring back Kadabra, who I'm hoping to trade and trade back with my brother for an Alakazam. I don't feel like posting whole summaries, so I'll just post their levels:

Terra: Level 32
Staravia: Level 31
Bibarel: Level 31
Luxray: Level 34
Ponyta: Level 23
Psyduck: Level 32

I'll list my box Pokemon now:
Zubat, Level 7, Male (Oreburgh Mine)
Geodude, Level 7, Female (Oreburgh Mine)
Pachirisu, Level 8, Female (Valley Windworks)
Cleffa, Level 14, Female (Mt. Coronet)
Happiny, Level 1, Female (Egg recieved from Traveling Man. Egg hatched in Hearthome City.)
Gastly, Level 20, Female (Route 209)
Kadabra, Level 30, Male (Route 203)
Cascoon, Level 12, Male (Floaroma Meadow)
Wingull, Level 20, Female (Route 213)
Wooper, Level 20, Male (Great Marsh)
Croagunk, Level 24, Male (Great Marsh)
Hoothoot, Level 22, Male (Great Marsh)
Azurill, Level 22, Female (Great Marsh)
Marill, Level 23, Male (Great Marsh)
Bonsly, Level 18, Male (Route 210)
Graveler, Level 23, Female (Route 214)
Girafarig, Level 24, Female (Route 214

I caught a lot since last time. You may have noticed that I put where I caught them along with their levels and genders. I'm going to go to the Canalave Library right now. Sudan (my rival) told me to go there. Bye.

Oh, I forgot. Does anyone know where to get a Water Stone? I think Psyduck needs to evolve.

[Winter]

I think you can buy one at Sunyshore City or you can find one in the Underground. Psyduck evolves into Golduck at Level 33 though I think.

[sal-sudairy]

Thanks. I remember Psyduck evolving with the Water Stone in the older games, but if that's not true, then I'll just use the Water Stone on an Eevee or something.

EDIT: I rechecked it. You were right, Pisaro. It evolves at level 33. One more level to go! :D
