Do you understand this topic? Lemme explain. As a trainer is it quality over quanity for you? Or the other way around? It's an Ash or Gary choice really. Whould you rather have alot of Pokémon like Gary, but most of them being at Mediocre, medium, strength because you can't train all of them, or have a low number like Ash, and all of them be very strong? To make this clearer, I am speaking of the anime, where as in the game it is a good idea to capture alot of Pokémon. In the episode of Pokémon when Ash returns to Pallet before the Pokémon League, he runs into Gary at Professor Oak's lab. They spark an interesting conversation about whether it is good to have many Pokémon or a few. If they had asked my opinion I whould have told them afew. Why? I believe that a trainer should try to capture his favorite Pokémon and train them. It is also much easier this way to keep track of them. After all, in the game, don't most people keep there starter Pokémon with them all the time because they grow fond of him? I like to stick with a number around 5 in a storyline, but since those are the same Pokémon used all the time, they are 5 strong Pokémon. Go into your Blue/Red/Yellow ect. files and see how many Pokémon you have not trained but caught anyway. I know that I said I was basing this offthe anime but I'm simply pointing out the difference. Now some people are going to say that you look like a much better trainer if you have captured many Pokémon. Okay, but what do those trainers say when your level 100 Pikachu kicks their level 25 Geodude's as*?
