Right, but the ability is so bad. I wasn't sure, people seems kind of divided...

The ability is bad, but if you play Archeops right you'll almost never see it. Heck I went through the entire game, even with Archen, by only seeing it once, when I was fighting Ghetsis, because most of the times, the sheer speed and attack of Archen/Archeops is enough to do the job. 

Plus, he's one of the few pokemon that can learn Acrobatics and use it effectively. And an archeops using Acrobatics is a deadly foe.

I didn't have too much trouble after all. By the time i got to Elesa my Sandile was one level off from Krokorok, so i just retreated, got it the rest of the way, and managed to roll through. Their moves hurt, but not too badly: the Blitzle relied on Quick Attack instead of the feared Flame Charge, so Krokorok soloed it with 1/3rd HP remaining in the end.

But now it's time for 3DS and a short break...

I wished I could do a 3DS break myself, but alas there's no money for it  

Oh well, back to the long, boring dex completion >_<.

Honestly all i'm in the mood to play is Pokemon, and not Pilotwings (which is what i'm getting), but i might as well enjoy it while it's new, and i'll have a long time to keep playing White

I've also found it hard to play anything else other than White, and that has been affecting my backlog a lot. Not that I have much time to play anything else but handhelds lately though >_>.

ah, so theres no random battle between players? i played every pokemon *except white and black* and i never turned on the wifi lol

Is it too early to ask you to give me his best possible moveset hahaha?

Do the Sandiles evolutions gain better defense? Mines is aroudn lv.28 and he gets killed in 2-3 hits. It was the same for my Bltizle but he evolved and is much tougher now.

Better, but not much. They're a glass cannon species, speed and power, though mine does well enough against physical attacks
