Let's hope. I need to start netbattling first, I believe.
As far as tournaments are concerned, how many teams are actually naturally raised (as opposed to using PokeSAV or some other similar program), and how many are held online with generated teams? I've played HGSS for many hours, and have a fully EV trained Metagross, Scizor, Tyranitar, Salamence, and Starmie --- obviously that team leaves a few things to be desired, but I still love all of those Pokemon nonetheless. I was also looking to raising a Vaporeon and Jolteon; one for the fact that it is a special sweeper and the other to do some pretty lulzy stuff whilst walling and not being totally useless on the offensive (ice beam). Would I be wasting my time to actually attempt to raise these Pokemon, or would using PokeSAV save me a lot of heartbreak for IVs and natures (all of my pokemon that are EV trained are of the proper nature, and things like hidden power types always gave a bit of a headache due to not using Pokesav)?
