144, thanks. :D and I ditched my Weepinbell for a Poliwhirl. I just can't use grass Pokemon. u_u Fire/Water/Electric is just how I roll.

145, I played through all of SS with a Hoppip/Skiploom/Jumpluff, and it was absolute torture! Even when it was level 30 I had to put it first in my party and switch out because it couldn't beat anything, "lol." I was hoping that it would get better when it evolved, and fortunately it did. But still, it only had two offensive moves (Bounce and Giga Drain), and Giga Drain was hugely helpful. It ended up being almost exclusively a Poisoner/Water/Rock killer, but it was really frustrating to carry, haha.

146, I remember when I tried using Hoppip as my grass Pokemon back in Gold, I didn't know it didn't really learn anything good at all. XD It was very frustrating and infuriating but I kept it because I wanted to see what it turned into (no internet/guide book) and I thought it might learn something awesome... I was wrong. XD It may be a bit more useful now, but unless you had some good resources back then, it was practically useless as far as attacking goes. It DOES live up to it's name being the Cottonweed Pokemon, though. :P

I think that just began my frustration over using Grass Pokemon. Unless it learned Razor Leaf or something good early, I couldn't really use it. Until stuff like Leaf Storm showed up, Solarbeam was the ultimate Grass attack. But it has the charge turn, and even if you have sun, you'd have to use Sunny Day anyways. That's why I just prefer Water Pokemon with Surf, it gets the job done.

147, I think I almost always had a Grass-type. I usually always go with a standard team of starter/bird/HM Slave/first three Pokemon available, "lol."

148, wow. :o I usually hold out for some more of the interesting Pokemon, or at least since 3rd Gen. I did get a Poochyena way back then though cuz I thought it was cool, and Dark Pokemon were still kind of a new concept since there were still so few so early in G/S. It's a shame they made Slugma and Houndour Kanto Pokemon, though I do suppose it adds to the feeling of still discovering new Pokemon that late into the game.
Speaking of that Poochyena, the Mightyena it eventually grew up to be really disappointed me and I've never really liked the Pokemon since...

Absol was awesome though, but I just don't like some of the moves it learns. However... it learns Super Luck now, couple that with those critical hit moves and maybe even Scope Lens, backed by that awesome attack.... nature, you scary! lol!
It's piss poor defenses is one reason why I didn't like it back then though, and the shiny one I have isn't spectacular either.

149, insultingly short and thoughtless response to a long and thoughtful post
