And then your game stopped working FOREVER!

  Technically its on my R4i which I backup occaisionally so it will never be gone forever.

Current team:
Tictac - Chimchar
Raunky - Starly
Death - Abra
Bunn3h - Shinx
Boodoo - Budew (looking for good grass replacement for this one)
Psyderp - Psyduck (looking for good water replacement for this one)

For Black 2 I'm at

Mareep -Fluffy
Oshwaott -Bubble
Riolu - I don't remember but it was a pun

However I think I'm gonna drop Oshwaott.

I'm playing Black again after finding my DS; the game I started when Black first came out was still there and I continued on that since I was 1 gym badge in.

Should we make another Pokemon thread where we just discuss the progress we make and share our nerdgasms about pokemon?

I spend most of my time grinding every pokemon I catch till it has mostly decent moves and close to evolution if I can't evolve it; so right now I'm at three gym badges but all my pokemon are around level 20-26.

Contrary to my sisters method which is pick a starter and NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE EVER.

[Christovski]

I have to have a team of 4-6 all roughly at the same level, powerleveling just one or two is just asking for trouble.

Flexibility is key.  Also Pillz, I think I will name my next grass pokemon after you.  If I find one worth a damn.  Friggin Platinum no good water or grass yet.

Jeez, there really aren't many grass pokemon in Platinum.. My top choices off the top of my head are Roserade(evolved from Roselia/Budew) and Abomasnow. Abomasnow is more of a physical attack/defense based grass/ice pokemon where Roserade is a Sp. Attack/Defense based Grass/Poison type. So Aboma will learn the amazing Wood Hammer which has 120 attack power along with Blizzard and the 1-hit KO Sheer cold along with Ingrain or whatever other moves you choose. Roselia learns your standard Poison and Grass moves with Petal Dance being its strongest and last attack move learned. It attacks for 2-3 turns in a row dealing 90 attack damage, unless Platnium counts as a GenV game where they buffed the attack to 120 attack power and decreased the PP to 10.

Your other grass choices are: Leafeon, Carnivine, Tropius, Tangela/Tangelgrowth, Cherubi/Cherim, or Turtwig.

Leafeon has insane defense for some reason, decent attack and  basically normal other stats. Carnivine has a half decent attack power but nothing much else going for him, and Tropius seems lamer than the rest but also has flying abilities so he can learn grass/flying moves. Tangela's evolved form tanglegrowth looks fucking retarded but honestly it's my 3rd suggestion next to Abomasnow and Roserade because it's stats are pretty wicked with HP, Attack, Defense and Sp. Attack all being above normal but in return it's sp defense and speed are below average. Cherim is just pathetic when it comes to its stats but it looks cute at least.

To get Roserade you'd have to use a "shiny" stone on a Roseilia but only do so after you're 100% satisfied with Roselia's current moves because Roserade doesn't learn attacks upon leveling up; but the stat boost is what makes the pokemon so awesome. Requires a little work but eh. Especially if you want an awesome maxed out Roserade, then you have to start from the first form Budew and train it up from there just because you might get some wicked awesome Egg moves and if you're as serious as my friend used to be you'll breed the same pokemon 30 times until you get one with the perfect ability and personality so it gets an extra Sp. Attack boost every level up.

TLDR;

Roserade is tied with Exeggutor for the highest Special Attack of all Grass-types.

So yeah; Roserade it is, in my expert opinion. Easiest way to do this, catch Roselia, train it until it's level 40 and knows the moves you want it to know; then use the Shiny stone on it.

Well i already have a budew named boodoo ive been using cause it is the ONLY grass type i have seen, so sadly if i use it i will have no one names pillz

You could rename it once it's a boss; or fulfill my wish of catching a Ghastly unless you plan on having another ghost type. Found in: Eterna Forest (Night)/Old Chateau.

Budew is your best Grass type bet though, stick with it; it evolves into Roselia with friendship and sunlight. Train it during the daytime, use other Pokemon at night. Then if you're really sick of Roselia you can swap it with a Snover/Tangela/Leafeon when you come across them later.
