Elite Four Special -- Pokemon Black Version: Entry 8
Blessed Blade posted a blog entry in blogs_blog_978
Might be a little late for some; but this'll have spoilers, in terms of the E4's Pokemon. Just saying. =P Okaaaaay. So; at the Elite Four now. Tried last night; got three defeated; and lost to Shauntal. Sooo; I'm challenging her first this time. =P Anyway; first off. That Elite Four battle theme. IS AWESOME. I think it's easily the best Elite Four theme. Ever. I definitely would like them to release that officially on a sound track. I'm serious; that needs to happen. Not just for that either; this whole game would work well on a soundtrack. Also; am I the only one who thinks it sounds similarly to one of the Death Note opening themes? Mostly just that first part as the battle begins. Could be imagining it; but either way, I'll just sum this up, as: Elite Four music; awesome. =P Anyway; onto the actual Elite Four. I'll update this as I go on. First up is Shauntal. /EDIT1: Shauntal has been defeated! She led off with her Confagrigus. I KO'd it in two hits, due to leading with Zoroark and using Shadow Ball. She followed with Golurk; and Golurk followed Confagrigus in three hits, since she used a Full Restore. She sent out Chandelure after that, and I switched out Zoroark for Samurott. Used Surf on her twice, and that was the end of that. She sent out Jellicent, and for some reason I switched to Gothitelle. Shadow Ball, while still Super Effective, barely did anything, however. So, I switched to Samurott, took her to red, and got fainted. So, then I revived her, but sent out Zoroark. One Shadow Ball, and the battle was over! Onto Caitlin now. =P /EDIT 2: And that was as easy as it was last night. xP She led with Reuniclus, I fainted it in two hits, one to send her to red, one to faint her from full health after she full-restored it. =P She sent out Sigilyph; I one-hit it. She sent out Gothitelle; I two-hit it. She send out Musharna? Guess what; I two-hit it. =P She just kept using Psychic or other such moves, and in the case of Sigilyph; never even got to attack. Onto Marshal now. /EDIT 3: Before I start the summary of the battle... have I ever said just how much I hate Sturdy? It's awesome; but works too well now. Alright; so. Marshal led off with Throh; me with Gothitelle. Gothitelle emerged unscratched, as Psychic one-hit Throh. Next off, Marshal sent out Mienshao. That Pokemon gave me trouble last night with U-Turn, but thankfully didn't use it here, and Psychic one-hit him as well, with slight damage to Gothitelle. That's where things went wrong. Marshal sent out Sawk next. Not a bad choice; but it has Sturdy. I hit it 3 times with Psychic, taking it down from full health to 1 HP; healed it off twice; and fainted me with Karate Chop before I could attack the fourth time, since it had critical'd the first round against Sawk. Gothitelle fainted, I sent out Darmanitan. Fire Punch fainted it instantly. Finally, Marshal sent out Conkeldurr the clown. Flare Blitz got it to a little bit of HP, but Conkeldurr proceeded to faint Darmanitan in one hit(Thanks to the recoil). So, I sent out Samurott to clean up. =P Won it, by that much. Onto Grimsley now. /EDIT 4: That was quick. Grimsley led with Scrafty, I had him finish off my last two non-essential Pokemon, Gonzo and Katie(Though I didn't really want him to, it was needed. I hope.). Then, I sent out Darmanitan. One-hit him with Hammer Arm, since I had been taking shots at him with the other two while waiting to be fainted. Then, he sent out Krookodile. I switched for Samurott; nearly got fainted since he out-sped me, but barely hung on for a Surf, which one-hit him. I switched for Darmanitan again for Bisharp; and then Fire Punched him to faintedness. Then, he sent out Liepard, which, though he got in a Fake Out, I one-hit with Hammer Arm. =P Now; I'm going to go onto the Champion's room. Strange though; they've been mentioning about a Challenger, and N... Hmm... I'm sure it's nothing; just gotta beat Alder, and I'm done! ... Right? (To be continued in next entry...)

Champion? Special -- Pokemon Black Version: Entry 9
Blessed Blade posted a blog entry in blogs_blog_978
WARNING! CONTAINS MASSIVE SPOILERS! DO NOT CLICK THE More LINK UNLESS YOU REALLY WISH TO LEARN ALL YOU CAN ABOUT THE ENDGAME. I'll spoiler all I can that's major; but seriously, this whole thing is technically a spoiler. xP /EDIT 8: I just realized that this way of posting the entry would work much better than the way I had it. >_> Update 9 now up, but contains spoilers of post battle. GAME COMPLETE. Update 10 covers the last bit before the Post-game; but obviously will contain spoilers. [Pokemon League] *Runs up stairs to Champion's room* ... Oh, this can't be good. N's there. And that's never a good sign. Yada, yada, yada, separate all Pokemon from People... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Looks like Alder lost. =/ Eh? What's that? Oh, you finally noticed me, did you N? Oh? Zekrom's reacting to the Light Stone? I wonder why... ... Wait; battle elsewhere? Where? ... Team Plasma Castle? What are you- *Ground starts shaking* [outside] » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «*Ground starts to shake as a gigantic building appears from out of the ground* *Then, said castle impales the ground surrounding the Champion's Chamber with tons of stairs* ... Since when did N have the power to summon buildings? 0_o Especially from the ground like that... [back inside] ... Oh; so that's the castle? ... And I'm supposed to go there? ._.;; Okay then... Oh hey, look, Cheren decided to join us. And beat the Pokemon League. Huh; for once I think I'm the rival, doing everything one step ahead of Cheren. =P Looks like Alder doesn't exactly care for N. =P » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «And is taking the loss hard on his pride. The Champion's room music(At least, I think that's what it is.); that's pretty cool too. And fits the current mood as well. *Runs up the stairs through the giant hole in the wall* *Pauses* ... That's gonna make renovation costs go through the roof... *Continues running up stairs while not stopping to marvel at the awesome view from the camera angle, since, you know, that's a very high height to fall from* » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «*Runs into castle, and sees all six Plasma Sages* ._.; ... Uh; little help? Anyone? Uh-oh. Going on about morals, and other such stuff... ... Oh great; now I'm surrounded... ... Say what? Ghetsis's plan...!? Wait; who said that? ... Clay! =D That sure pushed them back. Oh sweet; the whole gang's here! ... Well; minus the three brothers. They mustn't've got the memo. Oh wow; Bianca actually did something awesome. Sweeeet. =D Hah; Brycen's pulling a Kopaka. Must be all the ice type people. *Heads onward* ... On a side note; this is just awesome, this being the endgame. I'll edit more stuff in once there's more awesome things to note. =D /EDIT: Just something major; but one of the grunts confirms the fact that they actually used the Pokemon that they took. Guess she didn't realize that their Public Enemy Number 1 was standing right in front of her. =P /EDIT 2: Second room on the second floor; you can heal your Pokemon by talking to the person on the left. Now; the Triad guy I talked to said I could access my PC; but I haven't found it yet... /EDIT 3: Oh; found it. ... Oh; that's not good. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «They have access to the PCs. Well; time to put my Pokemon in the PC, 'cept for Munna. =P /EDIT 4: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Oh sweet; you can technically get unlimited balls, and go back to the Pokemon League. =O /EDIT 5: Okay; we've got a little bit of a confirmation on timeline; it takes place sometime after HGSS and DPPt; since one of the grunts makes mention to both Team Rocket's and Team Galactic's plans failing. That means that both had happened, and while Team Rocket's could mean when Red owned them all; Team Galactic's plan happened three years later, as Gen 4 establishes with all the Johto references putting it around when GSC/HGSS took place. /EDIT 6: Alright; run out of staircases, so here we go... I'm gonna just spoiler the rest. Just to keep the rest from being spoiled for people just reading this. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «[Team Plasma Castle] *Goes to walk into room, but gets blocked by doorway, and pushed back by Ghetsis* He's... talking about change... ... And just wondered if I have what it takes to be a hero. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «Though; something's fishy about Ghetsis... *Walks through door again* *Runs through hall in room, and sees N* He's going on about how he's determined to do this... *Walks closer to N* He notices that Reshiram isn't responding... Now he believes that he was wrong about me. That I don't care for Pokemon... But he is wrong. I do care for my Pokemon. And I'll show him that... I will! ... Zekrom? Uh-oh. *Zekrom appears, blowing out the wall, and eliminating all the water in the room with a blast of lightning* ... Okay; that was just a really awesome cutscene. ... Eh? The Light Stone... Is trembling? It... it's reacting! It drew in the aura and became a force, which is now... Being released! *Another epic cutscene appears* ... Wow; I think that was the better of the two; and that other one was awesome too. =O Alright; time to catch Reshiram multiple times. I'll continue once I'm done. /EDIT 7: Just gotta say; this theme is awesome. It sounds like a remix of a RGBY song too at certain parts; but I forget which song is the one I recognize... Anyone know? /EDIT 9: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «*Dust clears from battle against N* N... I won... It's... Over. It's finally over. Team Plasma's finished. I'm... Sorry that you had to have your dreams shattered like that, but... Separating people from Pokemon is not what should happen! ... Huh? You kinda agree? That's different. *Ghetsis walks up* Huh? ! Ghetsis? You... ... What!? You... You manipulated him!? You still believe there's a chance... And; wait; what? You're going to... Eliminate me? That doesn't sound good. *Cheren and Alder appear* Oh, hey guys, just in time to stop him. Looks like Ghetsis was the main guy all along. ... Eh? I have battle you, Ghetsis? ... Uh-oh. Well; hey; I just took down a legend, so... *Goes to battle* /EDIT 10: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «*Pants as I stand victorious* It's... All over. You're in denial, Ghetsis. You've lost. Your plans have been for nothing. You are no ruler, you never were. You relied on your son to do your dirty work for you; and that world never would have been 'perfect'. And now you're still trying to use him!? Alder's right; it's a waste of time. *Ghetsis is taken away by Cheren and Alder, leaving only N in the room* Huh? You want to talk? It said it wanted to be with me? I understand why... N... Yes. And goodbye. The credits start as Zekrom is shown on the top screen, as this is Black version. After the credits end... Well.. You can watch for yourself; I don't want to spoil that part of it. =) POKEMON BLACK VERSION END. -
Alright, so, time for Day 7's installment. Problem is; I'm not sure of what to write about. >>; SO! I'll just go on some more about Twist Mountain. Great design, Twist Mountain. Really helps show off everything, while also providing a challenge. However; could you have provided that challenge without it being from the really annoying Boldore, with their sturdy preventing one hit kills? There's nothing worse than running into it a hundred times through a trek around Twist Mountain; each requiring two hits compared to the one hit KOs of the rest of the Pokemon. xP On the bright side; I caught a Cryogonal while searching for that missing entry point! 1% chance of running into it; and I definitely didn't pass that up. =P Was hard to catch, however. Ate through my Ultra Balls. Party Status Update: Eelektrik(Eelektrik) Level 42(Female) Careful Darmanitan(Darmanitan) Level 42(Male) Jolly Kate(???) Level 42(Female) Hasty Wottergun(Samurott) Level 42(Female) Naive Gothitelle(Gothitelle) Level 43(Female) Gentle Lillil(Lilligant) Level 44(Female) Modest Badge Status: 6 Badges obtained.(Trio Badge, Basic Badge, Insect Badge, Bolt Badge, Quake Badge, Jet Badge) Game Status: I've reached Icirrus City, but I've only caught the Pokemon there, and headed back to Twist Mountain. I haven't gone to the Gym yet. Time: 58:29 Pokedex: Seen: 96, Obtained: 80

So, after much procrastinating, I may as well get down to the Dowsing Machine's entry. =P Simply put? This variant of the Dowsing Machine/Item Finder, by far, is the best. Gone are the days of having to activate it multiple times! Gone are also the days of having to constantly tap it, or hold the stylus down on the screen while you move around! No; now, all you have to do is activate it, and move around as you find items left, right, up, down, and center. =P Yes, it tracks items automatically. It may take a little getting used to, but it's by far the most convenient version yet. Even better than HGSS's version; and that's saying something. What this version does, is as you walk around, the two item finder 'antenna' things point in the direction of the item. "What's so different about that?" You ask? Well, for one, it updates automatically. No need to tap it, or activate it each time you wish to get an update on the position. Just walk around. As you do so, it'll automatically turn it's position to reflect where you are compared to the item. Like, say you're south east, in comparison with the item. If you walk up, then it'll slowly turn from facing Northeast, then the the east, and then southeast. If you, however, walk over to that spot, and move on top of it, it will also let you know about that, by having both antennae facing each other, and displaying a symbol in the middle. Then, you simply have to walk one square off as usual, and then pick it up. Simply put; this Dowsing Machine is extremely useful. Plus; it doesn't even get turned off automatically. The only things that do that is, say, when you go on Wi-Fi. You also have to disable it manually when you go to switch Pokemon, or save, but as I mentioned the other day, the rest can be handled by the Registration Menu. =) Party Status update: Tynamo(Tynamo) Level 27(Female) Careful Lillil(Lilligant) Level 39(Female) Modest Gothorita(Gothorita) Level 39(Female) Gentle Darmanitan(Darmanitan) Level 39(Male) Jolly Gonzo(Sawk) Level 39(Male) Careful Wottergun(Samurott) Level 40(Female) Naive Badge Status: 6 Badges obtained.(Trio Badge, Basic Badge, Insect Badge, Bolt Badge, Quake Badge, Jet Badge) Game Status: Just reaching Twist Mountain. Time: 48:15 Pokedex: Seen 88, Obtained 67.

So; day 5 of playing Pokemon Black. May have to step up my pace to have another entree today. =P Now then; I said I'd do the Dowsing Machine today; but I wanna talk about Critical Captures right now. So, if you've heard anything about it, it's a new feature in Pokemon Black and White. It's a difference to normal captures, but is random, and fairly rare; I've only encountered it maybe three times?(... Including last night. When the Lillipup broke out of it. With an Ultra Ball as the usage. ; ) But let me tell you what it is: Critical Capturing is like Critical Hits. Extremely rare; but extremely powerful. With a critical Capture, you can(Normally) capture a Pokemon with only one twitch, instead of three. And normally, it captures it, period. No Breakings(again, normally.); simply, it's caught. You can tell if your capture is a Critical Capture, because it sounds like the Pokeball was thrown at a very high velocity; it hits the Pokemon in midair, and then 'locks' the Pokemon in with a click, and then falls to the ground, shakes once, and clicks to signify it's been caught. However... Has anyone wondered how it all works? I think I've found it. Let's use Red as an example. [Route 16] Red: *Walks along silently* *A wild Emolga pops out* [A wild Emolga appears!] Red: ... *Sends out Pikachu* ...! (Go, Pikachu!) Pikachu: *Uses Thunderbolt on Emolga* *Emolga's sent to 1 HP because Red's just that good.* Emolga: *Valiantly uses Volt Change to attack, but does a total of one HP damage, and doesn't switch* Red: ... (Ah; it's ready for capture.) Red: ...? (What should I use?) Red: ... (Obviously a Pokeball, but...) *Looks around* *Spots a Wonder launcher* Red: ...! (Aha!) Red: ... (I'll use that to shoot the Pokeball out at the Emolga.) *Attaches Pokeball to Wonder Launcher* *Shoots it out at the Emolga, which sends it flying at a very high speed* Emolga: Emolga? Emolga mo? Emolga mo Emolga ga... (What? What's that? It's coming toward me at an unusual speed...) *The Pokeball hits Emolga hard on the head, and then transfers the now-unconscious Emolga into the Pokeball* *Since there's no resistance, the Pokeball only rocks once, to settle into a small hold in the ground* Red: ...! (Yes!) Red: ...! (Emolga was caught!) Red: ... (That Critical Capture worked perfectly.) =P Thank you, Red, for being our very nice example. Even if you don't say much. Say; have you ever met Kopaka? I think you two would be very good friends. =P

So, today, I'll focus on the menu systems in this. First of all, the main in-game menu. It's pretty much a revision of HGSS's touch screen menu; except, due to the C-Gear being on the screen at all times when on the normal overfield screens(Aka, not in a menu, battle, Musical thing, dressing up, or the GTS), it's been reassigned to popping up with X, like in D/P/Pt. However; this somehow works perfectly. I'm not sure if it's because the Running Shoes doesn't have an auto-on feature, or what; but it works very nicely. However, the main thing is the new global option for the menus... You can now exit the entire menu, from nearly any screen, by either hitting the button X, or tapping the red X on the touch screen. I cannot express how awesome this feature is to use; as it cuts down on a lot of unnecessary time wasted by having to B out of every single menu. Now, if you're done something, or just want to cut down on a couple steps, and you're not at the couple exceptions, you can hit X, and return to the overfield. This even works on the PC! That's a very nice touch they add; and they better keep it in in future installments. Also; since there's no space on the touch screen, either on the C-Gear screen or the Touch Menu, for the registered item spaces from HGSS... What did they do? Return it to only having 1 registered item? No; they instead give you 23 more spots that you can register stuff with, accessible through Y! And the best thing? That's not even limited to items anymore. If you've seen pictures of Black and White; even the Japanese pictures; you may have wondered about those icons at the bottom. Well, one's obviously return, and I've mentioned that another is the awesome new exit button... But what's that checkbox? Well, that's the new select/register option. If you hit that; you can instantly register an item to the Y menu... or; if you hit the check box on the menus, you can instantly return to that menu! Doesn't work on the PC for obvious reasons, but even still, that helps very much with things. So, now, you can have the Dowsing Machine up(I'll go over that tomorrow; it deserves it's own entree. xP), flip between the bike quickly, check the status of your Pokemon, use an item(Your bag's pockets can be registered, and as you can flip between them easily, you pretty much can register your whole back with one spot, though multiple spots allow ease of use), change settings in the options menu, and check your Pokedex, without even closing the Dowsing Machine, since you need to do that to normally access the menu, like in HGSS. However, you have to close the Dowsing Machine to save or switch Pokemon, since they didn't include registration options for either of them, even though registering the Pokemon menu makes infinite sense. =/ Do you see how that opens up a lot of possibilities? This new registration system is extremely handy, and I hope it stays in the next Generation and onward, and even any remakes they make in the future. Not gonna talk 'bout the C-gear or PC here; I'll leave that for future entries; as it's got massive amounts of information. And when Global Link and the Dream World open, I'll go over those as well, since I'll actually have access to info. That'll only be from 22 days and onward though, since it's not open yet. =P Party Status: Gothita(Gothita) Level 24(Female) Gentle Gonzo(Sawk) Level 28(Male) Careful Zebstrika(Zebstrika) Level 28(Female) Lax Lillil(Lilligant) Level 28(Female) Modest Darumaka(Darumaka) Level 28(Male) Jolly Wottergun(Dewott) Level 29(Female) Naive Badge Status: 4 Badges obtained.(Trio Badge, Basic Badge, Insect Badge, Bolt Badge) Game Status: Up to Nimbasa City, need to move on in near future. Time: 29:41 Pokedex: 55 Seen, 43 Obtained.

So; yesterday; March 6th... The release date of Black and White. And I got it yesterday; around noon. The game. Is. Awesome. It's long, very long. If you play it, you'll see what I mean. I like the fact that the story has been very much expanded. For now; that's all I'll say, as I'm only up to Castelia City so far. xP Oh... And the GTS is standard fare. =P Ridiculous trades like usual.
-
First of all, let me say that it's awesome that BZP's back, even if I didn't get to blog while I still had Tri that second week. =P So; we're nearly there. Black's only two days away from releasing; and it's the one I'll be getting. It sounds awesome, even though I just found out they removed a very useful training tool; the Vs. Seeker. Why they did that, I have no clue, but it doesn't sound like it's entirely needed for this game at least. Also, the Global Link site sounds sweet. Too bad it's not gonna be released 'til the end of the month... =/ The new layout it'll be getting looks great, though. =)
-
So; Celebi event this week and next, as most people know. I went to get Celebi today, and got it. So, that means... I've fully completed my Pokedex on Pokemon Soulsilver. And it means that my Living Dex is 100% complete as well.
-
The entry below needs attention!
-
Does anyone know how I can quickly and cheaply level up my Pokemon? I would use my strongest, but then I'll need to do loads more things, such aas walkng and walking and wishing I had my Togetic.
-
It works! 8DDDDD I will maybe accept battles soon, because my Pokemon aren't fully evolved and EV-Trained. But trading is okay. My Friend code is: 1119-1284-1986 -Charlie
-
The first of my Pokémon to get to Lv.100 is none other thaaaaaaaaaaaan: My little Electivire, Thor! B) -Charlie

I finally caught a Beldum. =DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD -Charlie

I HATE BELDUM!!! WHY THE HECK DOES IT ONLY HAVE CATCH RATE 3?!?!?!?!!?! >.< *is angry and annoyed* :angry: -Charlie
-
I'm currently breeding for a shiny Magikarp and all that yaddayadda. So, my question today is.. Do YOU have a shiny Magikarp/Gyarados? (The Johto event RG does not count.) -Charlie
-
What's the most common item you've dug up in the Sinnoh Underground? For me, it's Water and Leaf stones. -Charlie
-
I'm thinking of getting a Nintendo Wi-fi connectormajigy, so I can battle and stuff with you here at BZP. : > And I forgot to mention, I'm a Pokémon nerd now. ): -Charlie
-
Ahaha oh wow. Arceus has the worst voice I have EVER heard for a Pokemon. Srsly, Nintendo, what were you thinking? RAWR JUSTICE RAWR I ONLY KNOW EIGHT WORDS IN ENGLISH WHAT YOU ALL WILL BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE -Laka
-
Is awesoooooome. I've played 5.5 hours so far. I'd be playing now, but my eyes are killing me. -Laka
-
But I forgot to. I pre-ordered Pokemon Platinum! From what I know, it's awsome. Giratina's new Origin Forme looks just plain epic. Hopefully he'll be as easy to catch as Dialga and Palkia.
-
I just evolved one of my twelve Eevees into Umbreon. Now I'm trying to come up with a good competitive use for it, since I already make heavy battle use of an Espeon. also school in an hour D=
-
Did I ever tell you guys about the time my Togepi used Judgment?
-
I just bred about twelve Eevees in Emerald, and I have no idea why.
