SO guys...

The real reason i dont want to pick up a 5th gen game is cuz i REALLLY dont want to learn ALL the new pokemon, base stats, typing, yadda yadda you get the point. If someone is willing to teach me the basics of 5th gen, ill go pick up black or white. or wait for the emerald/platinum of black or white

Not a problem, I can help you out.

The biggest problem is the Dreamworld, and how the abilities there are pretty broken and the pokemon are hard to get.

Usually...

However ive been collecting them, and breeding them, so I can help with that too.

Also, the OU tier isn't completely tested, even though it is pretty much obvious at this point, so you can pretty much run whatever you'd like, more or less...
