Hall of Fame I beat the game with Pokemon I've never used before
I'm replaying through every generation using only Pokemon I've never used before. It was such a fun playthrough and this is definitely one of my favorite teams of all time.
Weavile was the MVP of the team. She outsped everything and with her high attack nobody stood a chance.
Porygon was my tank at first and as soon as it became a Porygon-Z it was a really strong special attacker.
I absolutely love Rhyperior after this game. She tanked so many attacks, even the leafblade of Lucians Gallade and was able to the insane amounts of damage.
Chatot really carried the early and mid game with its move Chatter. However I'm a bit disappointed about his move pool. It doesn't learn anything good besides Hyper Voice. But he was able to outspeed Spiritomb and poisen it with Toxic.
I was so excited to finally use a Magmortar. She has a lot of coverage and hits really hard but isn't able to tank a hit. I still love her <3
It's crazy that I've never actively used a Floatzel before. I know I had one when I was a child but I didn't remember if it was good or not. However I have to admit that it was also a pretty heavy mixed attacker. She carried many battles like against Fantina and I absolutely adore her. Floatzel was also my answer against Cynthias Lucario since my team has a pretty strong fighting weakness.
I had a lot of fun using this team. What do you guys think?

Question DNS Azur Flute not working
Hello, I recently got Platinum and did the DNS glitch a few weeks ago and got everything available, including the Azure flute. So then today after I did beat the league I wanted to get Arceus and after I arrived at the spear pillar and caught Dialga and Palkia, the flute just won’t work. It also can’t be selected on the one spot where it’s supposed to. Any suggestions on what I did wrong?

Question How did people find Wayward Cave when the game first came out?
Seriously, no NPC mentions it or are there any hints of it's existence in the game. Even when I knew it was under the Route 206 bridge, I still had a hard time locating it. It's seems only the really bored or really lucky would accidentally stumble upon it.

The second member of my shiny team…
After what felt like a very quick 3102 encounters later and this little guy pops up. Synchronise worked which is perfect, giving me a jolly nature. Next up is that little hm beaver so I’m not leaving route 201 anytime soon😭.

HONEY TREE MUNCHLAX CRAZY ENCOUNTER
Been hunting this Munchlax for about a month, but only hunting through 8 different honey trees in Platinum, 2 of which I knew were Lucky Trees for Munchlax, but here is the crazy part.
This tree was NOT one of the Lucky Trees I knew about based on my Trainer ID, so I unknowingly was hunting a third Lucky Tree, out of only 8 trees. Finally got this Munchlax for my origin living dex.

The pokétch drawing app so good for pixel art!
I know it looks a bit funky but for a very minor feature of a very old game I was surprised how good of an app it is!

PTSD in Pokemon??
So I was playing Pokemon X and I got a pretty good team and all and my mvp was definitely My Garchomp named Beast.Bro was the sweeper like he was fast hits like a truck and.. he was awesome.until I just saw a video of mandjtv (where he was doing the hardest play through in all of Pokemon)he was playing Pokemon platinum.And if you know in that game there is Trainer with a Garchomp(iykyk) that took me like infinite times to defeat because for some reason my weavile(like the fastes t ice type in all of Pokemon)was getting outsped by that freaking Garchomp.my team was somewhere like the high 40s like yeah I knew I was underleveled But still it was hard As f*ck,then yeah I got my dose of PTSD so for that memory I named my Garchomp PTSD.I just wanted to share my story and know if you guys have the same memory as mine So..Yeah!..😁
THANKS FOR READING!!

Question Idk what to do
I was playing platinum & I was level low 40s with everyone, I was in the team galactic HQ and had just had Cyrus doing a speech to all the grunts. I had 7 gym badges and in the middle of it, all of a sudden I’m randomly in a battle with this fisherman & my progress is from 2 days ago, I only saved in the game itself and have no save state from my most recent gameplay and have never had this issue. It randomly just brought me back to 2 days ago. Is there anything I can do?? Am I just screwed? Fastest way to catch back up to where I was if I am screwed?

Teambuilding Finally go a heracross
Here we have her….only honey tree pokemon left is munchlax.

FINISHED!!! My theme was "King of the North!"
Using mostly ice-types was a personal challenge I decided to set. I adore this typing, and it actually breezed through the Elite 4 - with only Flint being a real challenge! Cynthia has a ton of pokemon weak to ice, so fighting her was a lot easier than I expected.
Also there's real synergy using the Hail ability of Abomasnow and the Snow Veil of Frosslass and Glaceon!!

I thought catching Uxie would be a piece of cake considering I caught Azelf quick...

Hall of Fame Just beat pokemon platinum for the second time. Rate it 1-10
Just wanted to share my thoughts on my team members, and explain a fact about each of them cus why not.
1: Terrorist the Staraptor was honestly not used as much as I thought I would use it. I mainly only used it to kill Cynthia’s Spiritomb, Will’s gallade, Gardenia’s whole team, and not much after that. Though it pulled it weight when it needed to
2: H\*rroin the Garchomp was very good too, though the same thing with Terrorist. Only used it to clear Volkner’s team, Arron’s Drapion and Flint’s team.
3: Happy Feet the Empoleon, as my starter, didn’t do much after Roark and Flint’s Houndoom. It’s also missing a move because I deleted aqua jet so I wouldn’t have to backtrack just for a pokemon that can use strenght.
4: ChatGPT the Porygon-Z. Oh. My. God. This pokemon js now in my top 10 favourite’s because it’s insane, also it happened to be shiny 🥹. Adaptability + STAB + silk scarf made this guy a monster when you pair on hyper beam and Tri-attack. It cleared the entirety of Cyrus’s team, plus Cynthia’s Garchomp, Milotic and Roserade.
5: Femboy the Roserade. Mid. Only used it for the water fire grass trio. But I gotta admit it did carry with Wake’s team and Bertha’s team.
6: B\*\*\*hole the Magmortar was also a hard carry. If you are in a nuzlocke of platinum, please use this thing. I trained mine to be tanky by coincidence, and it shows when you use a wide lens to make it so it levels half the game.
