Rock still can't make a full mono with the current balanced pokemon.

Ey DUSKNOIR! I just you beat your ass and now I'm going for your boss... Just sayin' :P

And I'm thinking about changing type... maybe go Water or Grass instead of Ground... I've really started to like Treecko, but Squirtle is cool too..... But meh... I think I'll keep Ground for now. Been used to it for a while now :3

I will agree that until we're able to have full monoteams, it's fine to have a space filler.

Atm I'm hanged up in 2 things... Actually 3, but the last doesn't count as it's not out yet :-\

1: Mystery Dungeon!
Takes a lot of my time right now :3 Been playing it all day for a week now :D Had to restart last night though... couldn't beat Primal Dialga whatever I tried :'(

2: Sprites!
As you can see in my avatar... I'm back in recoloring buisness xD At least a little bit. So far I've only made 2 "custom" sprites except the Avatar: A Rapidash I keep posting all over and that Jigglypuff I've been posting around a few times >.<
Need inspiration!!! D:

I never really liked any of the mystery dungeon games....just never could get into them.
I restarted black about a week ago. My first play through I simply beat the E4 and N and shut it off and never played again till I restarted it. This time through I have been using nothing but bug Pokemon and am still playing even after beating the E4 and N.


@TheSolx
Did you decide which type you wanted to be or are you still going stick with ground for now?

I'm just waiting for the game to come out. I'm playing too many other games to really want to get on the server and do that, but when the MMO comes out I plan to make time. I've been playing a lot of Lord of the Rings Online. A bit too much actually.

Just a random little question, and I hope I am not intruding or doing this wrong...
But you have it shown where a Pokemon that isn't initially of a type but can evolve to that type is allowed on a team of corresponding type... but what about someone like Castform?  If I'm right his type changes when in weather, so would he be allowed on teams of types that correspond with weather?

I told GoldenBurr to post here to find out what everyone thinks.

My vote is no.
Because castform is a normal type pokemon. It only becomes other types in weather. Say you had hail going and your opponent brought out golduck with cloud 9. Your castform would return back to normal and you would no longer have a monotype team.

I try to visit the server once in a while, but hardly anyone is online then, so I quickly go back to watching anime again (way too many anime for my studies, but hey, I'm not in college yet so why not enjoy my last free year ;)). But recently, I can't find anything appealing to watch anymore except a couple of ongoing series, so that's changing back to reading. When the game comes out (gonna test out the beta too, but mostly exploring the map and pokémon locations since your data will be erased again), I'll be online alot more, so don't worry about me ;)

But you have it shown where a Pokemon that isn't initially of a type but can evolve to that type is allowed on a team of corresponding type... but what about someone like Castform?  If I'm right his type changes when in weather, so would he be allowed on teams of types that correspond with weather?

1) Pokémon like Castform, Ditto and Kecleon are normal types.
2) You can have pokémon on your team which will evolve into your corresponding type, but only if you have the intention of evolving them ofcourse.

Another example is Darmanitan, who can become part Psychic if you get him down to half health, but I don't think anyone would allow him in a psychic mono.

I was, of course, talking about pokemon that switch types permanently. Not just changing temporarily due to certain curcumstances in a battle, then reverting back afterwards. A flying mono trainer can feel free to use the charmander line as long as we don't see a level 37 charmander or charmeleon.
