I've always liked the Hippo line. If I expanded my ASB squad I'd add one since my only pure-Ground is Marowak.

Wouldn't mind one in FB at all.

It's also Pest day! If you happen to have someone with a pony avatar, you should probably let them go. It's not good to lock people up.

(Happy birthday Pest! )

Got to 650 on Master and got tired of it because I had done more times than there were pokemon. So.

Shaymin stumped me for the longest time, though.

Learning about fallacies is fun. And I understand it too!

In other news, Lucario. I love Lucario. And Latios. But you all knew that. Latios is just great for spamming Draco Meteors. The only two things I have not seen 2HKOd are Jirachi, Umbreon, Scizor, and Blissey. I mean yeah Scizor and Jirachi are everywhere but still. Oh yeah, TTar exists too. I love and hate TTar. Physical Pursuit is such a blessing for him. The ability to trap and defeat other Latios and Latias is nice. And Celebi too.

TTar, the Psychic legend killer. lol I am rambling a lot. Too much comp today.

Anyways, playing through Black 2 again, and I have found the answer to my Cheren problems. The one Pokemon you would NEVER expect to be as good against him as it is. Wait for it. Can you guess? No, its not Riolu. Or Sewaddle. Or Mareep. It is only the might, unconquerable force of....

Spoiler: show
AZURILL!!!!


This may make no sense to you, but, if you look at its movepool, you will see it gets the one move, the one, that screws Cheren over. See, Riolu doesn't get Force Palm till Level 15. Azurill gets Charm at Level 10. Did I mention that Cheren doesn't switch? Or, should I say this last part? You can abuse Huge Power Frustrations after weakening his offense to the point where you only need a Oran Berry during the entire battle. Its too bad it learns Slam so late though. Sigh. But Return is so much better! And more powerful!

That's it I need a tranq.

This appalls me because if this dropoff never happened then we'd have a female Hippodown in FB, and female Hippodown's color scheme is obviously better than the male's. (Now watch as it turns out I'm the only one ever who thinks so.)

Thanks! I kind of have a feeling of being locked up though ... I'll have to be spending my birthday in the library working on my research paper. Yuck. But at least I get to spend some time at FB~

Happy Birthday, Pest!

Also, looks like the final tally on the Eeveepocalypse was 30. o.o

Edit- Also, for curiosity's sake, we have:

-21 Active Eevee(lution) Owners
-14 Eeveelutions (including the ones that just evolved, of which there are 2)
-16 Eevee

That's a lot of Eevee.

21 Eevee(lution) owners who checked in. 5 Ralts(&evo) owners who checked in. Was never even a contest. (Something to fix in 2013? )

Well I'm in to help out the Ralts cause (although I am helping the Eevee one too), but I simply need more luck on hatching them with my Psychic eggs ^^; I'm planning of getting two of them, one of each gender ^^ And if ever I get two of the same gender by any chance, the second one will definitely be up for a bid war trade

Fun Fact: Hippopotas was released from the Adoption Center three months after I left UPN.

Fun Fact: I tried to trade that Hippopotas away for peanuts but nobody was interested. Limited slots and lots of unmet desires'll do that to you too, I reckon.

Fun Fact: Hippopotas was my second capture ever. She was also my last.

Oh, how about that, I missed the Eevee birthday. Seeing as how I botched the last birthday, and was left to flounder in that for a week, it's for the better of my blood pressure that I did.

The competition is getting pretty fierce! But I'm not giving up on my own entry though, as the theme, general feel of it and some of my ideas hasn't shown up in other orgs yet, so I still stand a chance

But I admit, the recent entries gives a run for my money, meaning I'll work on it harder... within how much free time I have left to work on it ;-;

I don't think I'll ever have the creativity to participate in any of these contests.

On the other hand, I feel like my RPing muse has been completely restored after playing PMD: Gates to Infinity for some reason. I hope an updater spot becomes available in a zone I'm interested in soon.

So my partner-in-crime on Facebook links this, and some of the comments make me think - if this is really how most people feel when they play the game, how do they maximise the usage of their Amulet Coin? Or am I just being the pragmatic jerk as I usually am?

Hmm, no, I never felt bad at taking away an item held by a Pokemon O.o Plus the way it's presented on the comic does push you to feel bad about the act, when it could be simply asking politely to the Pokemon to give us the item to either use it later or exchange it for another item for it to hold.

That's what I don't get - I understand the artistic direction, but there's a reason why you say "Received ??? from ???". Comments like "That's why in the games, I always give them something to hold even if it doesn't do anything because it feels mean to do otherwise" really don't make sense.

To be fair the original artist received so much demand for a follow up that they did end the story amicably for Pikachu. Actually, if you check the original source you'll see that she added the hyperlink to it.

If only the default Haxorus had been some other color than a variant of pea green. Then maybe. Maybe. I also would've liked him to be Dragon/Fighting. [/DUAL TYPE ALLLLLL THE POKÉMON! :D]
