    My favorite Rapid Spinner. Because of its rare role, I'd rather use it as a spinner +3 attacks or bolt beam with recover. Just like the whole Spikes vs. SR debate. Spikes is more rare, since almost anything can SR.

    But yeah, Timid Starmie is hella fast.

    I'd rather go with bulkier sweepers, with a Baton Passer like Ninjask though...

    If you have a Rain Dancer, get Kingdra with Swift Swim and Dragon Dance. Physical spectrum but very fast with Rain Dance support, and bulky.

    Grab your Milotic and go through the Beauty contests. Easy.
    Have your friend sit in the underground, park your dude next to his base, grab his flag, have him disconnect, and reconnect, rinse and repeat.

    Super Contest isnt that easy, you need a proper Moveset if you want to nail the Master Rank.... and ya the 50 flag is just granding, i did that in Pearl......it was extreamly boring >.<

    I've read a FAQ on Gamefaqs.com, explaining that a certain pokemon with a certain move set could allow you to sweep through the contests. Doubt it's true, though.

    Do all of the other lesser ranks of each, get the accessory freebies that are supposedly good starter accessories, buy them from the flower place and whatnot.

    yeh i didnt do master level :D...just regular old ULTRA...

    contests are lame though man...they should really mix it up in future games...!

    I know it's more for the female contingent but they could change it about a bit more...dont you think?

    Yeah Jasmine pisses me off. That's the gym leader with the freaky haircut right?
     
  17. calvin_0

    calvin_0 Well-Known Member

    nope, she is the steel gym leader from Johto, IIRC she is the one who give you Waterfall Hm after you beat the 8th gym in DP and Platinum.

    [​IMG]

    we get to fight her in HGSS XD

    Oh I'm thinking of Fantina or whatever her name is. I've only done the Beauty contests so that's really the only person that pisses me off. I think they're all cheating bastards.

    They've done away with evil Gym leaders, like Giovanni. The Team Rocket of each generation should've had a gym to carry on a tradition...

    calvin_0 Well-Known Member

    you are think that annoying Ghost gym leader who always said Oh lala~

    i hate her so much >.<

    anyway i just hope Giovanni will make a come back in HGSS, hmmm lets keep HGSS stuff in HGSS's topic.....
