I joined Bulbapedia in the hopes of contributing to the games info, mostly. I've got a couple good sites I can go to in search of good moves for my Pokémon, but one thing I noticed was a severe lack of detail on a lot of moves. The in-game descriptions of move effects are always quite vague, and most fansites don't bother to do any research on the actual effects (for example, a lot of people know recover heals the user by half the Pokémon's maximum HP, but it's rarely mentioned anywhere). I'm always looking for a good project to get started on, so that's going to be my job from now on!

For more info on me, feel free to check one of my other accounts on other websites. I'm on DeviantART, as Jioruji-Derako, and on GuildWiki, as Jioruji Derako (wow, such imaginative names). I'm on quite a few other sites as well, but DeviantART and GuildWiki are the two I spend most time on.

I've got plenty of experience with the MetaWiki formatting and coding, but keep in mind, I'm quite new to Bulbapedia. If I do anything that's even close to breaking a policy, let me know! I've gotta learn somehow. :P

Pokémon Teams

So far, all my teams have been various Pokémon, nothing especially noteworthy. My only two Pokémon to make it to level 100 are my Rayquaza and my Mewtwo, named Altix and Eradix, respectively. They're both currently on my Pokémon Emerald cartridge.

I'm working on a few team ideas at the moment; due to my somewhat scatter-brained methods, I haven't gotten very far on any one team, but I do have enough to list a bit here...

First off is a team from Emerald. It's in progress, as the most I've done so far is train one of the team-members and plan out the rest.

Dogs of War

  • Sneasel
  • Manectric
  • Zangoose
  • Absol
  • Houndoom
  • Mightyena

Sneasel made it to level 60, but then I stopped playing for a while.

Now, with Pearl, I can build a team a bit easier; the Physical/Special Attack system makes it much easier now to get a Sneasel with high-powered Dark-moves, which I plan to do. I need a good Physical-type Ice attack though, and Ice Punch is the best option... unfortunately, Ice Punch isn't nearly as easy to come by in Pearl as it is in Emerald. Time to start breeding my old Sneasel...

Revamp to the team, as of May 5, '07.

So far, I'm short by one Pokémon... As my entire team has a weakness to Fighting (with the exception of Luxray), a good Ghost-type might make a nice addition to the lineup. The rest of the team's weaknesses have counters stuck in there, such as weakness to Bug being toasted by Houndoom's Fire-type attacks. Either way, not a lot of powerful Bug-types out there. Fighting's a bigger problem, as the majority of Fighting-type attacks are pretty strong; Absol's Psycho Cut can wipe a Fighting-type out pretty quickly, but that's reliant on Absol getting the first strike (she is fast, at least). A good Steel-type might be nice, too, but I think that still leaves a Fighting-type weakness. Mawile is a fun little guy though... I make most of my team decisions based on how the Pokémon looks though, and I don't like a lot of the Ghost-types. Sableye's cool though, that might be good. I might end up going a completely different direction, though; maybe a Psychic-type, or something entirely unrelated. Who knows. I'm off to look at Pokémon. Coolest-looking one makes it on the team.
