My team always have 4 main pokemon and the 5th and 6th get switch out with various pokemon. I always like to have back up pokemon.

Anyone else made competitive teams? Just curious since I have to help judge the VGA tournaments as well as the TCG tournaments.

Nope, I'm not into that. I'm a causal pokemon gamer.

Yellow is in the lead! I will close voting tomorrow night!

My Yellow carterage is dead....

Emulators, Star!

I have read online that the reason S/G/C dies before R/B/Y is because S/G/C has the internal clock which runs out the battery. I still dont get why my Crystal is still alive. O.o I guess I played my Silver more.

*Le Sigh* I wish that Gen I - II didn't die as easily. The first two generations are definitely my favorites. That's why I was actually thankful they remade Silver and Gold for HeartGold and SoulSilver.

So right now both games are tied.

Hopefully more people vote.

We can so play yellow and mine still saves which is odd because my silver doesnt save anymore. D:
I wonder if my Crystal still saves?

I'm one of the few people in my group of friends where my Red and Blue still saves. Out of all my games Silver is the only one that doesn't work anymore unless I replace the cartridge battery. Even my Mario Land 2 game still saves and it's older than Pokemon.

I think it has something to do with how often you played the game? I could be wrong though.

My Crystal and Yellow still saves! It feels so weird to use my GBA SP.

It's pretty common, it happens just from being old. (This could be wrong but this is what I remember) but the game has some sort of battery in it and can only hold so much information for so long or something like that and eventually it just can't hold all of that data that has been stored up and stops saving. That's totally wrong... but it's something along those lines

All GB games have a battery in them and they only last so long. I even believe that the NES and SNES games have batteries in them as well. All you have to do is put a new battery in them and they can save again. Luckily GBA games don't do that. My Ruby's clock doesn't work anymore, but I can still save.

Voting ends tonight. We still have a tie for Yellow and Pearl/Diamond. Black/White is catching up! If we end on a tie breaker then we will have another round of voting.

Voting will end at 10 pm EST! Right now Diamond/Pearl is in the lead by one vote! :3

So the winner is Diamond/Pearl by just one vote! :3 Since Yellow was runner up that can be the next game!

FYI I cant edit the poll for some reason T-T So please dont vote anymore!

The challenge will start this Friday! At 6 pm EST. This will give everyone time to find roms and join in! I will update the first post with all the rules later this week.

Sweet can't wait! Overall objective is who can beat the game first or what?

Yes that is objective! Who can beat the game first! Which means who becomes the champion first aka the post game does not count.

Reminder! The challenge starts tomorrow night (7/12/13)! 9 pm EST.

Lol, I just checked my Diamond game again to see if I was willing to reset it. Turns out NOPE! NOPE! NOPE!

Nearly 200 hours logged onto that game. Seen nearly 400 Pokemon and Own nearly 350 Pokemon.

Definitely going ROM for this challenge when it starts in 1 hour and 15ish minutes.

LOLz Im going to reset my diamond game. I'm too far into my pearl game.

It's cases like this I wish I had Pearl to do that. But again I'm totally fine with playing on the ROM.

I updated the first post with the new rules! ^^ So please check them out!

The challenge starts in about 10 minutes. You don't have to start exactly at that time.

2 MINUTES!

WOOT! HERE WE GO!!
