Yup I did that too. I have a level 57 Male Combee in Diamond with move tutor moves from Platinum. In X I have a level 90 Male Combee.

@coolmaster43232  
I spent hours leveling a ralts so I could get a gallade only to figure out that the dawn stone wouldn’t work cause it was female.
 
I had to take a step back and re-evaluate my life up to that point.

@acres  
Yup those mistakes are something I made when I first Played Diamond too. I never got to evolving some Pokemon because I thought I need Wifi to trade them.

@coolmaster43232  
Same here I’ve never liked Pokemon that only evolve through trading, or version exclusive pokemon.

@acres  
Yeah me too. I didn’t know that the DS had local wireless when I first used it. My sister is nice enough to give me Pokemon that I need.

@acres  
40. Do you play one account, or do you have a secondary phone?

@πʊßƛįϰ  
I used to have a secondary account on an older phone but I lost that phone. So I only have the one now. have you been to any of the events?
 
 
@coolmaster43232  
I had a friend who would help me out. We always made sure to get different versions.

@acres  
That’s what me and my sister did. My sister was the one who bought our first Pokemon Game which was the OG Pokemon Gold version. She also bought OG Yellow, OG Crystal, Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald, FireRed, and LeafGreen.

@coolmaster43232  
problem is that only worked up to black and white. He stopped caring after awhile.

@acres  
Me and my did this up the From Diamond and Pearl up to the Ultra games then my sister left to live with her husband. My sister has done this with Sword and Shield though.

@coolmaster43232  
I didn’t need him anymore. At that point I had moved out and used wifi

@acres  
Same here. I use wifi to wondertrade.

@coolmaster43232  
Wondertrade is good, but too random if you want a specific pokemon.

@acres  
And the fact you can get hacked Pokemon trough it as well.

@acres  
I’ve never been to the in-person Go Fests. I miss when my local community had meetups, but they kind of fell apart even before the pandemic.
 
I used to have a secondary account until my old phone got too old to run the game anymore about 4 or 5 months ago. If the old phone still worked, she’d be level 40 by now (also Mystic).
 
What do you think about the rent-a-mega system?

I think Nosepass got better when Diamond and Pearl came out when it got an evolution.

@πʊßƛįϰ  
Are you talking about having to pay like a dollar a day to keep your pokemon mega evolved? Cause if that’s the case, I hate it. It’s a pay to win model and game freak won’t be getting a cent from me.
 
I miss community meet ups as well.
 
 
@coolmaster43232  
Yeah most pokemon benefit from an evolution. Although I don’t personally like probopass’s design.

@acres  
You need to use your raid passes on mega raids to collect the energy required to mega evolve. You need something like 4 or 5 raids per species to mega-evolve for the first time and then another raid or two to mega-evoove again. In keeping with the MSG, each mega evolution only lasts for four hours.

@acres  
I like it’s design. It’s also one of the few Rock-types that have good Special Defense. Although it does have mediocre Special Attack.

@coolmaster43232  
its not a bad pokemon, just not for me.
 
 
@πʊßƛįϰ  
Yea I don’t like that. For someone who lives in a city its fine, but for someone in a more rural area, not good.

@acres  
Yup that’s how I’m with Mr. Mime it just not the Pokemon for me. I actually used an Aloan Muk in Pokemon Sun in game team.

poison type is my favorite type, but I hate what they did to muk. It’s just not very poisony if that makes sense.

@acres  
It’s first time I used a Poison-type in my team. I also used an Aloan Nintails and an Aloan Raichu in my in game team as well.

I just realized that the Tentacruel card from the fossil card series is the worst stage 1 Pokemon in the set.

Fun Fact: In the Pokemon TCG Poison-type Pokemon cards had three different iteration of card types the first being Grass-type cards, the second being Psychic-type cards and the third being Dark-type cards.
