Hmm. My game is regularly taking 2-3 minutes to save. What the hell?
How often are you saving?

In-game nothing matters because you can win with anything >_>
Luxray's main letdowns, even in-game, are crappy STAB attacks, and low Speed.
Hm. My Luxray had pretty good speed in Diamond/Pearl. Although in Pearl my Luxray came out horrbile. D:
This would be due to IV's/EV's, and possibly Nature.

This isnt FE, level-ups are fixed >_>

I'm pretty sure there's a limited level of randomness.
Certainly not like FE though.

The 'randomness' comes from IV's, mostly, since you cant control those.

Unlike EV's, but in-game Pokes are going to have EV's all over the place, pretty much.

Aside from that, no, no randomness.

IVs are random though. You don't control them, you can't see them, and on top of that, they actually are random. There's no reason to say level ups are fixed, just because the randomness is determined at the beginning of a pokemon's life rather than throughout the game, because to the player, there actually is no difference.

There is a big mechanical difference, however >_>

There is no randomness in Pokemon levels.
The effects of IV's are minimal for in-game anyways.
The difference is 32 (or was it 31? I'm not 100% sure) at level 1o0.
So at level 50 or w/e you finish the game at, it's 15.
Aside from MAYBE Speed, and even that's unlikely, you're probably not going to notice the difference.

Barely broke 900 points...*sigh*

I never got into using Staraptor for some reason...I just stick with Crobat. And there's a third fire type that's catchable-Houndour.

Uh, no.

Just Ponyta, Slugma, Numel and Chimchar, but Chimchar is only if you choose him and Ponyta is the only one of the others worth mentioning.

Apparently, he is catchable in Platinum.

And Houndoom is catchable in Pearl.
News to me too, but apparently it's so.

Numel and Slugma are National Dex only too... so they dont really count.

The shinx I had caught actually had a 31 IV in speed and a speed enhancing nature, so naturally it should have been decently fast. :NomNomNom:

I liked the turtle with a stick stuck in its head because its a grass type with good moves that picks up the ground type upon evolution making it difficult to exploit any weaknesses.

~ Kovu
Except the double weakness to Ice...still being weak to fire...I think a double weakness to bug...

I picked it too, but it's the worst.

I can't speak to bug for those who care enough about that type but fire does normal damage.
Certainly less weaknesses than the other two, ice given.

It's hardly the worst.

Torterra, due to it's typing, kinda IS the worst, yeah >_>

Steel is a AWESOME defensive typing always, and Infernape has a nice offensive typing and the stats to back it up.

I LIKE Torterra, but it is the worst.
In competetive battles Torterra is even more screwed since Ice WILL be used against it... and the opponent will probably go first too with Torty's Speed.
