Damn, want the game but I'm saving up for a Wii...
Doesn't help that one of my DS screens is going ape shit.
Jesus Murphy, you guy's are in the 50+ group already?! Wow. I myself am rolling with Croconaw, Pigeotto, Ekans, Onix, and a Flaafy. All my dudes are just about level 20. Great remake, and I love all the upgrades that they've put into it.
Feraligatr - Lvl 43
Raikou - Lvl 42 (had an ampharos before)
Entei - Lvl 42 (had a vulpix before)
Lugia - Lvl 45
i have an onix on 38 but decided just to leave it because it totally sucks :E
i catched an swinub to get some nice ice/ground moves but it's a pain in the ass to level it up on those weak-ass wild pokemons
problem is: i'm right infront of the elite 4 now and don't think i stand a chance with the levels i'm on right now
that's exactly what happened when i played my silver version a few years ago... eventually i just lost the motivation
any ideas?
My team on my import Heartgold consisted of 3 Pokemon:
Level 49 Typhlosion
Level 50 Slowbro
Level 48 Ampharos
I can't remember what moves I taught all of them, and I couldn't read what I taught them even if I wanted to know now, but I think I taught my Slowbro surf, snooze, blizzard, and zen headbutt. I stopped right after beating the elite 4 for the first time because I wanted to actually be able to read the dialogue.
For my english Soulsliver run, I'm only using a level 21 Bayleef at the moment, but I think I know what I'm going to use in my party. I intend on using Slowbro again (amazing tank), Ninetails, Jolteon and some other undecided pokemon. Probably a Alakazam or Gengar and a Heracross for some physical sweeping.

"fielding legendaries? lame.
the only way i've ever beaten the Elite Four on the first try was by having all my guys at level 50 with a well rounded team, (this was fire red) and i believe i had Charizard, Vaporeon, Primeape and Haunter. i had sold all the items i wasn't going to use, and baught loads of full heals, max potions, revives and a few full restores for good measure.
Anyway, everyone faces the Elite Four a few times before they're able to beat them, it's just the nature of the game that unless you played a perfect game and powerleveled the fuck out of your party, you're going to run into this problem. just keep at it, your pokemon will level up as you go, spend every dime you have every time you get money on potions and revives and full heals, and just keep at it. best part about HG/SS is there's a whole other game after you beat the elite 4, so it's totally worth it.
and don't field legendaries, ya big girl.
EDIT: if you need someone to trade Haunter to get said Gengar, PM me your friend code and we'll figure something out.

lvl 54 magmar*
lvl 54 pidgeot

lvl 64 ampharos

Ampharos
Crobat
They are all in the early 30's level wise. I just beat Rocket at the Goldenrod Radio Tower.
I need some one to trade my Graveler and Kadabra with so they can evolve(, but I will want them back.)
I can help. I need help trade evolving two of my pokemans." lvl 54 magmar* lvl 54 pidgeot lvl 60 feraligatr lvl 61 tyranitar lvl 64 ampharos i also have lvl 50 machoke/kadabra* i switch out depending on how i am feeling +plus the lvl 70 mewtwo and lugia * i need someone to help me get magmortar, alakazam, and machamp. My friend code = 5113 5626 7512 "
My friend code:1849 3933 0717
I switch out a lot, but right now my highest level guys (and the stalwarts on my team) are low lvl 30s; Croconaw, Scyther, Raticate, and Sandslash. I rotate in and out of my team (depending on who I'm going up against) a Magby, Flaaffy, Butterfree, Togetic, Onix, and Garadyos.
Looking for a solid Fighting type to rotate in (Tyrogue, possibly) and a reliable Grass type (I have a Paras at Daycare at the moment).
" @ImperiousRix: Kangaskhan is a fantastic pokemon to teach fighting moves, failing that, my Primape in Fire Red was a monster the whole way through."And I really like Kangaskhan. I've just never found one yet. Heading to the Safari Zone soon, though. Are wild ones plentiful there?
Tisn't out in the UK yet, but this is the party I'm planning on having:
Growlithe/Arcanine
Bellsprout/Weepinbell/Victreebel
Seal/Dewong
Tangela/Tangrowth
Duduo/Dodrio
Squirtle/Wartotle/Blastoise
Will most likely change before I get the game. Not sure about Blastoise, will be forever before I can get him and I'd rather use Pokemon I catch myself (that aren't legendaries). Might go for Muk or Weezing instead.
I have:
lvl 60 Typhlosion
lvl 60 Lugia
lvl 54 Pigeot
and the rest are an assortment of random HM slave pokemon that I don't use in battle cus they are a low ass level.
Body Slam
Wake-up Slap
Zen Headbutt
Milk Drink
Pyro Mutt / Arcanine Lv 55

Lvl. 33 Feraligator
Lvl. 33 Scyther
Lvl. 33 Ampharos

Hoothoot Lv. 6
Rattata Lv. 5
Pidgey Lv. 5
Zubat Lv. 4
Spinarak Lv. 5
My team that awesome.
Typhlosion lvl. 59
Lugia lvl. 51

Staryu lvl. 20
Hoothoot lvl. 10
Geodude lvl. 3
I actually just beat the elite four for the first time with this team, on my first try. Powered through them all with my first two of course. I don't think geodude would have come in very handy, though he did act as a sacrifice on lance.
EDIT: This is as of 17:55 on the clock, which was the save time after the credits.

Lvl 60 Typhlosion
-Double edge

Lvl 52 Lugia

And I rely on a lvl 14 sentret for cut, and a lvl 30 red gyarados for whirlpool
These are my pokemon... Some yet to evolve... :D (I'm new to the new pokemon series, last played yellow) My team sound good?
Chimcar Lv. 1
Treecko Lv. 1
Vaporean Lv. 1 (( Or maybe i should use squirtle? )) which would be the best stat wise?
Scizor Lv. 37
Raichu Lv. 36
Duskull Lv. 18
Other than Vaporean with Surf, and maybe Treecko with cut (thats a MAYBE), i have other pokemon with the HM's, Machamp for Strength Lv 30 i think, Lv 20 Hoothoot with fly. haha. Oh and my Raichu had flash but i replaced it with Charge Beam. :D
Yanma Lv. 20
Raticate Lv. 22
Croconaw Lv. 23
Drowzee Lv. 20
Bellsprout Lv. 3 (My flash/cut pokemon, I don't use it for battles)
Togepi Lv. 1
I'm walking my Togepi around to get max happiness, so at lvl 2 it becomes the next evolved form. After that I just need a stone to go to it's last form. The stats are amazing!
Oh, and Yanma's next form has great stats, Raticate is meh but a good starting pokemon. I'm regreting picking a water pokemon in the beginning though, I could have just gotten a Gyarados. Drowzee's next form isn't as good as Alakazam or whatever but I don't know if I can trade my pokemon back to me, so I'm stuck with Drowzee. I prefer Gardevior but it's not available in this game.
Avoiding the trade evolve Pokemons since I don't have anyone around me I can trade and retrade my pokemon back.
" Yanma Lv. 20 Raticate Lv. 22 Croconaw Lv. 23 Drowzee Lv. 20 Bellsprout Lv. 3 (My flash/cut pokemon, I don't use it for battles) Togepi Lv. 1 I'm walking my Togepi around to get max happiness, so at lvl 2 it becomes the next evolved form.

if you need a Ralts i can breed you a pretty good one. male or female?
I just found out I can trade from my copy of Diamond?
Well, I got a Gardevior on that sucker all ready. I guess this means I can also get the trade evolving pokemon.
Well, I guess I need to wait to borrow my cousin's DS though.
I only had the female version of Ralts since Ruby only had the female look, which made me avoid the male version.
Is the male version any good?
Oh, and thanks for the offer, but I guess I'll just reunite with my ol' pal.
Just started but managed to pick up a Geodude to ruin Faulkner with, along with a Cyndaquil (I love fire), Pidgey and Sentret, who I never use and cannot wait to get rid of. What a terrible abortion of a Pokémon. I hate the start of the games, it's always so hard to get into, even as a massive fan.
