Battling and catch up

My Rainy Day team has gotten beaten up a lot in the wi-fi random battles in Pokemon Battle Revolution. So many people battling with uber-Pokemon (Darkrai, Palkia, Dialga, Giratina, even an Arceus). I'm building some Pokemon that I can pack as my 2 extra Pokemon, to function as my thugs in case of ubers.

Once I test them, I'll post my answering Pokemon, along with how the worked out in the field. One of them is Porygon-Z. The IVs on it were crazy good. I wanted a Togetic with a move from the Emerald move tutor, but all of my Togetic Pokemon are no longer in the gameboy advance games...and you can't find them in the wild. Tough love!

Upcoming download! I don't think it's official from the Pokemon site yet, but people have been saying that the Arceus download event for D/P/Pt will be at Toys R Us from November 7th - November 15th.

New Battles

I recently started battling again, this time with a friend I haven't seen for awhile. We organized a late night wi-fi double battle, 4 Pokemon, level 30 - expanded Sinnoh dex.

I got crushed, his 3 matches to my one. We swapped out Pokemon between matches - I stayed away from my favorite Weavile, as he was running it consistently. He had some killer Pokemon - Drapion, Gliscor, Blissey, and Scizor, to name a few. (His Umbreon was a tank!)

My Sunny Day team didn't get off the ground - Weavile's Ice moves wrecked shop on all the Grass Pokemon. I figure I need to get a fast Fire-type to get Sunny Day started. That's some good feedback, at least.

Double battle is tough - you don't have time for a lot of tricks, because you have two Pokemon threatening to double team your set-up. My only win came from using my better Pokemon from an earlier tournament, and my opponent using a 'B' team. My next post, I'll cover my new Pokemon team, for the rematch!
