You get to 6 pokemon a LOT faster than I normally do... I usually only have 2-3 pokemon by the first gym. I catch everything new, I just don't use them...

I also explore the routes as much as I can at that point in time, collecting all the items. I don't know what I'm going to do once I capture my 7th pokemon...

Seems like you have the same problem I do... When I get a seventh pokemon I want in my party, I have no idea who to dump.

Yeah, I just feel guilty and worry that I won't get around to levelling up the ditched pokemon. I don't want just six really powerful pokemon...

The first Pokemon I caught was Mareep to take on Falkner.... Then Spearow for Bugsy.... I gain one Pokemon for each gym untill I have six....
Unless I need different Pokemon....
I haven't been there yet but I hated how you had to have an HM slave to fight Red.... He has six strong Pokemon and you only had five strong.... Needless to say I still have much more training to do to fight him.... His Pokemon were around 80 so I expect that to be his lowest now....

I'm just trying to fill up the pokedex as much as I can while I'm doing the actual adventure.
As for Mt Silver, the only HMs you needed in G/S/C were Surf and Waterfall, and I usually give those to my main Water pokemon anyway.

Surf is fine.... It's a great water move but Waterfall takes up a very needed spot on your water Pokemon....
Also ever since I watched TTGL I've been shouting "GIIIIGAAAAA DDDDDRRRIILLLLLLL PPPPPEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCKKKKK!!!!" Every time I use it.... Also "GIIIIGAAAAA BBBRRRRIIIIIICCCCKKKK BBBBBBBRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKEEEEEE!!!!" Too.... Made me think about a fusion series....
Also Silver is so much cooler now....

Same here. I really like Pokemon as an RPG, but at the same time I hate it. I've got some kind of weird RPG OCD thing, where I want to keep every party member, even if I despise them and never use them, on the same level as everyone else. I never choose one team, and stick with it. Or, for 99% of RPGs anyway. I do in pokemon, and it breaks my heart everytime. All those low leveld pokemon I want to put in my party, but I can't bring myself to take out any of my high leveld pokemon either...

What's the problem with Waterfall? Having said that, however, I'm one of those people who just gives their pokemon attack moves. I don't battle competitively or take on the Battle Frontier, so...

So what do you think of my nicknames so far?

I think the nicknames are pretty good, sure better than anything I usually come up with. I particularly like Roxxor and McTwisp. For some reason I can't really explain, I also like Lightyear.

Heh, Lightyear was my sister's idea. I was really struggling to think of a name for Weedle that would suit it throughout its evolutions.

Heh, yeah I read that. I quite like that name... and it would suit Weedle throughout it's evolutions, though maybe not Kakuna... but then again, it's only Kakuna for 3 levels, so it doesn't matter much.

Having two same type attacks on one Pokemon is redundant.... You can pass these days because of the special/pyhsical split but usually your Pokemon will be better at special or pyhsical so only one is needed.... Even in normal play this is important.... Also things that cause sleep or burns or anything like that even if they don't do damage are just as good as offensive moves....
And that's why most HMs suck.... They take up room.... But enough about that....
Your nicknames are pretty good.... I choose mine after I've battled with them and have started calling them with weird names.... Fräulein, Archanine, Pharaoh, Nidouken and Fro.... They're basically ways I corrupt their names.... Try to guess 'em all....

Well what would you suggest instead? I've gotten along pretty well so far putting whatever moves I want on my pokemon, so unless things in HG/SS are drastically different from D/P/P, I should be just fine continuing as I normally do. But thanks for the advice anyway.

I suppose I worry about that stuff because I tend to run through underleveled.... I hate grinding.... My Pokemon never top 50 on the first run....
