I'm playing the following following platinum rom hack, so its been fun having my Pokémon follow me around.

Just beat the elite four so now I'm probably wrapping up my time with the game, and will eventually move on to gen 5 (I'm playing through each gen moving through the regions, I've not really played any modern games so I'm looking forward to trying them :)

a picture of a 3DS screen showing a Pokémon trainer in the middle and three Pokémon on each side. From left to right, bastiodon, garchomp, spiritomb, rotom fan, toxicroak, and the blue and green variant of gastrodon. There's confetti falling, and at the top of the screen it says "League Champion! Congratulations!" and at the bottom it says "Cris ID 03050 Time: 126:50"

I remember my first run of Platinum. I was sitting in the car when i beat it. Congrats on the completion, idk about you but i struggled really with that last fight.

    The fact that you get locked into combat as soon as you step into the room with her (unlike all the elite four) nearly completely fucked me over, but fortunately I was able to stall and item spam all my Pokémon back to full health 😅

    I tend to really like building teams that can beat stuff a lot stronger than me, so curse on spirit tomb, toxic on toxicroak, and gastrodon and bastiodon to wall did a lot of work 😅 I think I used curse to beat like three of her strongest Pokémon lol. Its such a dumb move, I love it so much.

    It was definitely hard though, and item spam is kind of a cheesy way to beat stuff

    You did a lot better than I did building your team lol. I just built my team based off of what I thought looked cool. I think I had a Torterra, Chime-Cho, Gardevoir, Vaporeon, and a couple that I’d cycle in and out

    Honestly I largely did too, I pick my favorite designs from each gen and make a team with them, but it worked out okay! I considered chimecho but I mostly just adore chingling and it's way too weak to battle with. I also considered using trash wormadan; steel and bug are my favorite types, but it's not that compelling of a design, and it's not very good 😅. I'd love to include it on a team someday though
