Your status on Platinum

Finished training a shiny Milotic, and now I'm debating whether I should teach it Hidden Power [GRD], and what to get rid of for it. =(
 
Well, that took longer than it should have. I've been procrastinating lately and I don't know why. Regardless, I'm done training my third (of four) wave of Pokemon. This means that I now have:

-Pikachu (m) lv. 100
-Jigglypuff (f) lv. 100
-Arcanine (m) lv. 100
-Exeggutor (m) lv. 100
-Lucario (m) lv. 100

Now I just have to train the last wave of Pokemon (the last set of starters) and I'll have a whole box full of fully EV trained, positive natured Pokemon in level 100.

The next Pokemon to be trained will be:

-Bulbasaur (f)
-Totodile (m)
-Torchic (f)
-Dialga
 
After a long hiatus from playing, I decided to train myself a Ninjask. She's all EV trained and everything, I just gotta level her up so she learns the moves I want.
 
My game finally hit 500 hours!!! While ev training a new team last night. I'm getting some new competitive battling pokés for hg!!

Last time I played got through 20 battles in the battle tower faced Palmer in the 21st took down his Rypherior with a bit of trouble before his Dragonite came and that was that :(

Have you tried using a Grass type Pokemon? They're magnificent in the first round because 2/3 of his party are weak to Grass.

As for Dragonite, a Pokemon like Gyarados or Milotic (with Ice Fang or Ice Beam respectively) are great checks for it. Gyarados weakens Dragonite's Attack with Intimidate (forcing it to waste a turn Dragon Dancing) and Milotic's defense is strong enough that she won't fall to any of his moves lest he dances (giving you the opportunity to Ice Beam it to hell. She's also not afraid of T-Wave as status actually makes her tougher to take down)

The last Pokemon can be cannon fodder, or a nice pseudo (Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp) as those are always useful
 
Haven't posted here before...

I'm just chilling in Pt, mainly leveling up a random Pokémon (currently a Lv88 Blastoise) and evolving the numerous foreign Pokémon I have obtained via GTS (currently two Tentacool, one Pineco and one Kabuto).

Just helped one guy get a GTS trade through, and I had got my own offer completed too. I offered something random, can't remember what it was, and obtained a shiny Japanese Mew who came from Hoenn. Dunno about its legitimacy, it looks legit but one can't ever know.

Time 909:07, Dex 493/493, score 60607, cash 955533, 3/5 Trainer Card stars (missing Underground & Battle Tower ones).
 
I'm trying to breed and EV train a UU team.
It is not going well.

Actually I've had Platinum for about 2 months now...I haven't bred nor EV trained a single Pokemon (correctly)...kinda makes me wonder what the hell was I actually doing.
