Okay, so the plan on my end is to finish up whatever Astoria adventures I was updating and see what happens with the zone before I take on any new adventures. For those people on board with this, feel free to post here confirming your desire to be horribly mauled by some huge jungle monsters continue on! For reference, here's the last update I did; most people have replied to it already, but they might have left this FB in favor of the one on Serebii/BMG, so I need to know who's still around before continuing. Thanks!

The same Astoria adventure in which I'm helping out a family of Poison Pokémon breeders who are related to my absolute favorite Gym Leader by fighting off my absolute favorite character from Orre? Yes, please!

Its just now dawning on me how much of an amazing writer Tate is.
The dynamic of his Vulaby and (the evolution name escapes me.) is amazing.
Every time he updates my Bedlam ridge adventure I am overwhelmed at how real his NPCs seem.

...And in other news, I think I've found my favorite part about having been on the Gen. 5 hype train: laughing every single time someone complains about the Gigigear line's English name! I you're gonna complain about Nintendo of America's 'subpar' localization, at least attempt to look at the source material they were handed!

Let's see here...

English: Klink, Klang, Klinklang

Japan: Gear, Gigear, Gigigear

When ya look at it like that, suddenly the English names seem a whole lot more creative, no? Of course, klingklang's German name has it tops: 'Klikdiklak' is surprisingly fun to say!

@MedMana Oh gosh, I remember being so mad when people were taking the piss out of 'Purugly' when Gen IV first dropped, singing the praises of the elegance of the Japanese name when the Japanese name is just a pun meaning "fat meow cat".

I'm not saying the English is Shakespearean, just that it's frequently on par with the source materal. Not always, but frequently.

(P.S. You flatter me, Kawaii. Also, Mandibuzz. o3o)

To be fair, the localization had next to know idea what they were doing with the critters. A large number of pokemon had different names upon official release than they did during the initial marketing phase, with a good few of the final names being arguably stupider than the actual designs (I'm looking at you, Seel).

That being said, I do have an idea of how Barrierd became Mr. Mime:

"Hey, this guy looks like a clown, so maybe we should give a good clown-sounding name. Like Mr. Creepers or something."

"But Steve, the thing has a lot of powers inspired by mimes!"

"The dismal looking fellows that pretend that their in a box despite standing in the middle of incoming traffic?"

"Yes, those guys. They prefer sidewalks to open highways though..."

"Seriously, those guys are wei- wait, I've got it! Let's call'em Mr. Mime!"

"Ugh, fine, whatever. I'm gonna go get lunch."

And then the next generation introduced an actual gender system, leaving NoA (and NoF, for some reason) floundering around as they realized that names are a lot harder to retcon than skin tones. That's just my guess, though, seeing as the American version of Red and Blue came out the same year I did. *Shrug*

Thank you so much, everyone - I had wanted to write some form of acceptance letter, but I think I will save the formalities for the most part and just get straight to work!! I have already been in preliminary discussions with Emi and EAI, and our main priority right now is getting some of our core threads back up and running, processing feedback as we go, and adding things as we begin to reach consensus on various topics. There's a lot to do over the coming weeks!

All three of us are available via Discord and through PM, and we will be reviewing the Dev Thread frequently. Your ideas and suggestions are very much encouraged and welcomed - the three of us absolutely cannot tackle this alone - and it is my sincere hope that we will rebuild UPN FB together. All of us.

To my dear Fizzy friends, old and new - I hope to continue to earn the trust you have placed in me.

I am flattered and honored that I was so overwhelmingly elected to be a moderator of FB. This is a position of great responsibility, especially given that we have to essentially rework the entire game in order to undo the wrong that was created before. As Marion said before, we are always available on Discord and via VM and PM, and I myself as available also on Skype, if you prefer to use that.

What I will always keep in mind going forward is that I am here to help you guys get the game you've always wanted. I want to respond to the trust you guys have given me by acting within the fullest extent the capacities and maturities expected of a mod. I hope for your continued support as we continue to rebuild the game.
