Heheh. My awesome boyfriend got Pearl for me on release date (as well as Diamond for himself), and I've been playing it everyday. Anyway, here's how everything is going in my neck of the woods.
Pokédex
Seen 307, Own 233
Party
Maraqua the Empoleon♂, level 76
Kazooie the Staraptor♀, level 78
Kimba the Luxray♀, level 76
Machick the Machamp♀, level 76
Einstien the Palkia, level 75
I don't have any of the GBA games or wi-fi access though. But not only do I often trade with my aforementioned boyfriend, but he's also considering getting the GBA games for both of us. I'm so lucky...
