I don't really have a favorite type, since it keeps changing. For a while, it was {{t|Psychic}}, but I don't have any one true favorite type.

I love the way they're portrayed in the anime, but in the games they don't seem to be as useful as some other types. I certainly don't hate them, though.

Hi! I am Aggron989 and I joined Bulbapedia in December of 2012. Pokémon is one of my hopeless obsessions.

I don't remember exactly when I really got into Pokémon, but I've seen a lot of the anime episodes and own a lot of the games. When I first started playing the games, I didn't know how to do anything and I borrowed somebody else's Swampert to power my way through my first game, Pokémon Ruby. After I learned how to properly play Pokémon, I restarted my save file a few times and now I have what I consider to be a very good team. After playing Ruby, my Pokémon obsession has been growing steadily larger and I now own Ruby, Emerald, Silver, two LeafGreens (because I'd lost my first one for a while), Pearl, Platinum, SoulSilver, White, White 2, and X. I also own four Mystery Dungeon games, all three Ranger games, Pokémon Pinball Ruby and Sapphire, Pokémon Snap, and Pokémon Stadium (which I never play anymore).

As my username suggests, my favorite Pokémon ever is Aggron. I have no idea why.

I don't really have a favorite type, since it keeps changing. For a while, it was Psychic, but I don't have any one true favorite type. In the games, I believe Flying is the least useful type overall and I also consider Water to be the most versatile type when it comes to battling.

Something else about me is that I very much dislike legendary Pokémon for several reasons. They are caught at a very high level in the wild, so even with the great base stats they can still be weaker than your already-trained Pokémon. The only non-event legendary that is caught at a low level has a terrible ability. Speaking of abilities, way too many legendaries have the same one. Also, in terms of overall appearance, the legendary Pokémon started off looking pretty reasonably cool, but then they began to look more and more ridiculous. That said, I do have a favorite legendary, which is Heatran. Again, I have absolutely no idea why. I literally just decided one day that Heatran was my favorite legendary Pokémon.

While I am here on Bulbapedia, I make my very best effort to be nice to everybody and to not be rude when I communicate with other users. If you notice me being a jerk anywhere on the site, please let me know so I can change my behavior.

Also, while I'm not a terrible writer, I am still a novice editor and am still unfamiliar with a lot of wikicode.

Hopes and Dreams

(If I ever figure out how to get images and clips from my games, I'll work on some of these myself if I can.)

  • More information added to stub articles
  • All "from previous generations" clips on move pages to be animated
  • Animations from every generation for abilities
  • Maps and layout for every Pokémon Ranger, Pokémon Ranger:Shadows of Almia, and Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs location, instead of just the infobox picture
  • More extensive descriptions about each Ranger mission, as well as the actual mission text

My Proudest Accomplishments

In the Pokémon games

  • Finding a Shiny Drowzee less than three days after finding a Shiny Geodude.
  • Defeating Red in Generation IV... after five or six failed attempts.
  • Carefully breeding and EV-training a variety of Pokémon that I use in reasonably good battling teams.

...I'll get back to you on this. Haven't really made myself useful yet - just some rewording for clarity and addition of information here and there.

Likes and Dislikes

Likes

Dislikes

  • I do not have anything against Unova or its Pokémon (most of them), but I'm not a fan of Generation V.
  • Ash's Pikachu seems to be very good at hitting Ground-type Pokémon with Electric-type attacks, even fainting one of them with a Thunder Shock.
    • On a similar note, characters in the anime are constantly saying that Electric-type moves have a hard time damaging Rock-type Pokémon. Uh... no, they don't.
    • In the Hoenn League saga, Pikachu's attacks were more frequently ineffective against Ground-types, but the show blew it again when someone's Houndoom damaged May's Skitty with a Shadow Ball.
  • The fact that Charizard has two Mega Evolutions. This bothers me a lot. I understand that Charizard is the overall fan favorite Pokémon, but why does it need two Mega Evolutions? I can live with Mewtwo having two, although I don't like that very much either, but Charizard has no legitimate reason to have two Mega Evolutions. Not only that, but the two Mega Evolutions have different type combinations, which means that in competitive battle, your opponent doesn't know which Charizardite you have. It'd be okay if Venusaur and Blastoise had two as well, but they don't.
  • Ash's birthday is way overdue.
