Pokéathlon Gods

[Lief Katano]

This is a thread to post your highest PokéathStated Pokémon! Well, for me, I have a lot of Pokémon that have high stats, so I'll just go with my favorite:
Bear (Teddiursa) Stamina! ! ! ! !
Also, please note that this is for 5 BIG stars. I have no idea if 5 big stars and 5 normal stars have any difference, or if 3 little stars are different than 3 reg. stars.
You can also put special PokéStuff involving the Pokéathlon.
For me? I don't wanna gloat but...
All the legends I own are Medalists! Just need to find Suicune and the stupid Machine Part for the birds...

Well, high stats doesn't always mean assured victory. I mean, my Arceus isn't maxed out and he's medaled in everything.

 

[Keegman]

Regular stars = That's their normal stat, at its normal level.

Big stars = Higher than the stat is, normally.

Small stars = Lower than the stat is, normally.

This is why you can have 2 big'uns in a stat (because the standard is 1) or 4 little'uns (because it's normally 5).



And technically, any specific pokemon isn't a medalist; their species is. For instance, I've medalled with Pidgeotto, but what is now my Pidgeot has no medals to call her own (it bummed me out quite a bit when I realized this).

Oddly enough, though, I've found it easier to medal with non-legendaries, because even if you sweep the games, the bonus points you receive are drastically reduced, which has, on more than TWO occasions, made me lose the course despite sweeping two out of three games.


But dammit, now I want to go run the Speed Course over and over and over with the three Dogs (Hyneman, Lion-O, and I need to name my Suicune something cool. Pussyfeet?)

(Hyneman, Lion-O, and I need to name my Suicune something cool. Pussyfeet?)

there are so many jokes I could make on that. I would advise against it.

 

[Keegman]

Fine. Pussyhands it is. Bonus, it's an Always Sunny in Philadelphia reference.

Same for my Scizor: it has not one single stat maxed out yet she medaled in everything. She and my Typhlosion, with 3 medals (Stamina, Power and Skill) and its Stamina maxed (5 big stars) are my pride and joy.

Pussyhands

You just made my night.

 

[Falconwing]

That... is even worse.

 

[Kemine]

Some of my pokemon were caught with a maxed out stat...I think my Pikachu I just caught has a maxed out Speed.

And I didn't do anything.

So...


Well, in the races I found out my Quilava was super fast. My Umbreon sort of was.

 

[7tx]

My Crobat is maxed in speed and jump, and Weavile has five big stars in power

Larvitar has 3 medals, Tyranitar the other 2 purely to get point for a Waterstone. It's the same pokemon let me in the second winners room you b******s

 

[Soulweaver]

I got two with all five medals: Aipom and Ampharos.

Pokéathlon is a good replacement for contests, since it takes much more use of the DS's touch screen capabilities. I like playing it just for fun. But the "very top scores you have to beat" are something unbelievable and sometimes next to impossible. 50 flags in Pennant Capture? I barely beat the 35 flag mark with lots of tries. 80 seconds in Hurdle Dash? My 5-star speed Pokémon get combined times of about 95 seconds at best. 60 points at Circle Push? There can't be much better score than that available. The only one I'm nearing is the Lamp Jump, in which my score is 499 and the record is 500 (yeah, extremely frustrating).

 

[Kimori-Hinoarashi]

Arceus! (It's a TRU one!) It has gotten me a medal in all but Skill. I stink at Skill. And it has almost maxed-out stats.

 

[Lief Katano]

I stink at Snowball Fight (forgot name, Snowball first word), yet somehow I got best record. Odd...yet cool. Then again, I always enter my Jirachi. And it SO rocks with the DS touchscreen. Only prob is that you'd have to enter the 'lathon if you lose your stylus.

 

[Fudgenuggets]

Ditto and Sunkern. They both have 5 stars in all their stats. I almost maxed all of them out

And I have all my main team Pokemon and most legendaries with 5 medals.

I've beaten the circle one. And the secret to the hurdle one is to jump at the last second every time.

 

[Regiruler]

I do believe that the Pokeatholon discussion thread covers this.

My record in Circle Push is 57 and my current record in Lamp Jump is actually 501 points (I didn't even know 500 was the record to beat). I think I'm not that bad then.

 

[hundera]

I cannot, for the life of me, play the soccer one.
I can beat almost every other thing in Pokeathelon, get high scores all around, but this soccer game is infuriating.

Got something like, 150 as my best score in brick break, that game is so very fun with some of my Pokemon.

 

[GoldenrodGOD]

my marill is beast!!it has a power of 5 big stars
btw i dont know if this is true but i think that smaller pokemon are better than bigger pokemon in the pokeathlon...

 

[Lief Katano]

Wow, that's odd.
And I think for the trophy, you have to get the exact points/time or higher/lower. Trust me-get 80 sec., I call you lucky. Try with 5Big stars. And...wait a minute, there's a Pokélathon thread? Uh-oh...
