Niall

Super cool story bro.

np, time was when I was pretty much the solo forum ref, so I'm used to it .

Sorry that it's late to say, but welcome to BMGF!!!!!

You can.

Saving up for a Gible. I'm going to try and catch a Murkrow and Ralts too. I'm trying to get a balance...

Earthquake will really be something great to have especially if a Pokemon were to use dig. xD Nice! I just changed my avatar too. Right now I'm saving up to get me a Larvitar and to prep myself for contests. Then I'll work on a Slakoth, Magikarp, Bagon, and Gible.

Close Combat is still a fighting type /shrugs xD
Reversal an "OK" move xD
Just wait until you go into battle someone and you are so close to defeating them and then they turn around to use reversal.

Um, my Growlithe is now an Arcanine xD and Magikarps are great for basic battles. A Shinx? That's awesome! > I have myself an Elekid! Good thing with Riolu is that you do have attacks such as reversal and copycat, which can come in handy. You also have feint, which is really great to have.

It's OK XD you'll win your battles - I lost my first two matches (Mismagius and a Piplup) and the only reason I have so many wins now is because my friend went through 7 basic battles with me using her Magikarp xD

Hey, Niall, it would help if you occasionally checked the battle because a referee posted and it is your move. xD

To answer your question, yes we have to wait for a referee to post. Next time, VM me the question. xD

Yeah, I can start the thread.
Thank you for accepting! ^ ^

Hey, would you like to battle?

Welcome to the forums.

You have a cool username.
