Pokemon Farming: Chikorita

August 1, 2007 | 176 Comments

ChikoritaContinuing with our Week-O-Johto, today we’re offering the Grass Starter, Chikorita!

My first experience with this happy little grassy dinosaur-thing wasn’t until Diamond and Pearl, but once I got my hands on one, this leafy wonder quickly became one of my all-time favorite grass-types.

It’s stats are average but once it evolves, first into Bayleef at level 16 and then into Meganium at 32, it quickly becomes quite the powerful, um, whatever it is. Add to that it’s ability to learn Solarbeam on it’s own and the ability to be taught Sunny Day and you have a very powerful Grass-type that can take on even the toughest of opponents!

It never gains any extra type so you’ll always have to worry about Fire types and a couple others, but that’s a small price to pay for, in my opinion, one of the better Grass starters around.

Normally, as Tater described yesterday, the only way to get this little dino-weed is to play through Emerald and get it after beating the Elite 4 (or earn it in Pokemon XD for the Gamecube). However, today I will be cutting out the middle-man and delivering this one directly into your grubby little mitts. And here is all you need to do:

All you need to do:

  • Leave a comment with your trainer name and friend code. I’ve had to clear out my pal pad a bit, so I will need your codes!
  • Be in the Wifi room by 8:00 EDT (7:00 CDT) on Wednesday, Aug. 1, and be in Trade Mode (Invite -> Trade). I will come to you when I’m ready.
  • Have something to trade. I’ll take anything, but I’m still trying to fill my ‘dex, so I prefer any non-Sinnoh Pokemon that you may have.
  • It doesn’t need to be holding anything, but items are always appreciated, including berries. I’m still trying to collect all the berries and I still need #’s 31, 48, 53, 59 - 64.
  • Don’t be afraid to trade amongst yourselves!

My trainer name is Bott and my friend code is 2320 2629 3165. I look forward to seeing all of you at the Market!

Due to popular demand I am bringing back the Gold, Silver and Crystal starter offer.

This offer includes Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile. If you want one of these three Pokemon all you need to do is ask in the comments and provide the relevant friend code information.

Now is the time when you are probably wondering, What does he want in trade? I’m not looking for much but, one thing I do need is berries. I don’t care what Pokemon you trade to me but I need the following berries for my berry farming project. I don’t have the names handy so I’ll just list them by ID number:

Berries needed
37 - 39, 41-49, 52, 60+

If you have a berry with the above ID numbers I would greatly appreciate getting it in a trade.

As an added bonus each Pokemon will be holding a berry with an ID number greater than 30.

My information:
Trainer: Ezekial
Friend Code: 0559 3242 3898

    Instructions

  • Have something to trade to me
  • Be in the Wi-Fi zone by 7:00PM EDT (New York Time)
  • Be ready

PS: The 12:10PM posting time is no longer going to be used. Since this is an open trade offer I no longer feel the need to set a specific time for these posts to appear on the site.
