    I ordered three sealed copies for $31.
    They arrived. I opened one (the one I'm keeping), and far as I can tell, it's legitimate.
    Think I'm ready to make a niiice profit :^)

    Who else thinks Platinum has the most memorable gym design? Really fun to go through.
    They really showed off the new 3D environments and varied camera angles in those.

    ... is anyone else on the site?

    Just beat Pokemon Platinum. Took me 44 hours. My team was Empoleon, Luxio, Porygon, Staraptor, Lucario, and Kadabra. Funny enough, my Lucario, though level 71, didn't do much during the elite four battles. I mostly used Empoleon and Staraptor. I think Platinum is one of the blander games in the series, and I mostly just played it on my breaks at work, but I still liked it. Right now it feels like a 7/10. Time for post game content I guess. I see a big area on the map that's unexplored.

      Editing … Man, Gen II and V (for whatever reason I use roman numerals for pokemon gens) are the best, EZ. I loved all the new features used in V, and that all the Pokemon you encountered were the new ones, rather than mixing in some of the old. I really loved that. I've even called Gen V "the new Gen II," in terms of its improving on the last iteration.

      Editing … I actually jumped straight to Black 2 instead of playing Black/White 1 because of the increased variety of Pokemon, especially after hearing so many complaints about the gen v Pokemon. Gen 6 is my favorite, but only because it was too easy, something they fucked up. Gen 5 is my genuine favorite. Gen 2 remake is what got me into Pokemon. Gen 1 has old school charm. Gens 3 and 4 are alright but don't stand out.

    I got a Ryolu from an egg and gave it an EXP share. I never took it off either so its level is way higher than all my other Pokemon.

    Just lost against the elite four. I hadn't done any grinding and I lost against the champion. The problem is a couple of my Pokemon are just useless and the best ones are weak against ground moves. Guess it's time to throw on some music and get my grind on.

    Welp. Did not expect the Distortion World. That didn't even feel like Pokemon. It was more Digimon-ish. From a story perspective it was cool. Annoyingly easy to get lost in though, which I hate. I like Cynthia, she's very optimistic.

    Just got the seventh badge the cheap way, with about fifteen hyper potions, a couple uses of toxic, and one pokemon getting hit with recoil a lot. I'm enjoying the game more right now than I was for a long time, and I'm not just playing it on my breaks at work.

    As usual the third pokemon game is the best in the series. Adds a few refinements but is basically the same game it has always been. played this one as much as any pokemon game myself.
