Hmm. Not that I object to all my eggs (metaphorically) going into your basket, (again metaphorically) but a wider distribution of my digital spawn would be preferable. To mix metaphors, in doggy language this would be called intent to [select one]pee on all the things/do all of the bitches.[/] Swimmers gotta swim.

...you guys want to give back the things I've traded to you now don't you Sad

You didn't miss out, IT gets it if nobody else wants it. Have I given you anything before Hanky? Besides whatever it was I traded for the awesome Dragonite. That likely doesn't count.


E: actually Xaber if you're around you should probably get top priority whenever any of us have free stuff. IIRC the SS thing flopped for you? Australian-Irish timezone conversion though... Easy to math, hard to do.

You gave me a 4IV gastly that I turned into a 5iv MM being project

Edit also I think your metaphor means that you want to sow the seeds of your demise across a wider range of potential rivals.

Nonsense, I'm contributing to the evolution of my environment and ipso facto myself, through adaptation to harsher surroundings and more capable competitors.

I don't know why you were bothering with all these competitive strategies to take them out. Brute force works just fine. I'm pretty sure I never stocked up on healing items during the entire game and got through just fine.

competitive strategies??? all i really did was go "can i kill this thing safely without being at risk of losing someone? if not, what can i do to make it easier?" and oftentimes that included things like boosting stats or using status effects

i mean i'll admit i probably overstocked on items but the thing is that i was expecting this to be more difficult than it was
when i first played black 1 i only barely scraped by the e4 thanks to being underleveled and unprepared and having an unbalanced team
so yeah i guess i overprepared a bit

Being underleveled is the last thing you need to worry about in XY. And I count boosting stats and using held items other than Mega Stones as competitive strategies in this case. Also, people use the X items?

wait
you mean
not everyone gives their pokèmon items??? what?

also yes you do need to worry about being underleveled if you don't have the exp. share on

now see, that's one of the few real issues i have with x/y-- if you keep the exp. share on all game, you'll be ridiculously overleveled, but if you leave it off, you'll be really underleveled unless you level grind a lot
the only really effective solution is to have it on sometimes and off sometimes, but that's sort of annoying and i kept forgetting to switch it off/on when i started getting ahead of/behind the level curve
but luckily victory road got me up to a comfortable "two levels behind highest E4 'mon and six behind champion's highest"
i was expecting to be further behind, actually, but it worked out pretty well

I'm on Victory Road now, and after being numerous levels behind the regular trainers, I decided to switch it on again for the last stretch. If all goes well I'll be right up to par just in time for the big four.

THAT'S RIGHT I'M ON VICTORY ROAD GET OFF MY BACK CA

Little mac is the most fighting game type character there's ever been in this fighting game, this was needed.

Also I've been playing some of the new-ish zelda (link between worlds), and it's pretty great. If I played it all day I could probably do most of the dungeons. It's nice to play a game where gameplay outnumbers plot for a change.

I've also been playing FF7 on the psp, and unlike last few times I've actually been changing up my team now and again, keeping everyone in use instead of the same 3 characters, and using my newly gained interest in stats from pokemon to try to optimise materia equipment.

just to clarify the meter (which powers up in an unidentified way so far) will actually just power up his neutral special when full

itll change into a flashing "K.O!!" symbol that makes the neutral special be just that

are we there yet are we there yet are we there yet??
where we=you and there=finished the game.

Anyway, unrelated: Future reference for a Tyrunt/Tyrantrum; Trismos, greek word meaning "a scream; a grinding, rasping or gnashing", from which we get the word Trismus, the official name for lockjaw. Speaking as someone with pretty bad jaw pain, I think it sounds horrible and therefore fitting. And I still hold that Samson is the best possible name for a male Mawile.

Hey guys: What were the nicknames that, in recent times, you felt most proud of/least impressed by? I nickname all of my trained Pokes on the fly, and sometimes I get good ones, other times... not so much.

Good names: Shamal, arabic word meaning northeasterly wind carrying sandstorms over the desert. Hippowdon. It even LOOKS deserty, doesn't it? Flitz, combo of "flit", what a bird does, fl-, commonly used to describe fiery things, and blitz, which IIRC is german for lightning or something? In english it's got other connotations, all of which I'm good with: Talonflame. Archimedes, guy who did the whole principle of floatation thingy - Azumarill. I always award bonus points to names whose first letter is the same as the Pokemon species.

Not so great: Lefrogue. I was desperate. It's a thing with me that new pokemon have to be christened IMMEDIATELY and I had nothing.

weird ones that I'm not sure how I feel about:
Incitatus, derivation of the horse Caligula rode on, for Scolipede. Scolipede will always, always been a steed to me so I wanted a horsey name, and Caligula has some fearsome associations, plus the root of the name means swift or full speed, which works. I just don't feel comfortable with it though.

Hahaha of course not. I'm still on Victory Road. ETA for Elite Four is maybe in a month or two.

Nickname stuff will be edited into this post in a bit, gtg do laundry.

Edit: meh all my nicknames are pretty weird. They usually seem funny at the time???

Nickname of infamy: Clarence the Panpour. I was so confident  I'd remember what it meant instantly, but after a week I had to ask my friend if he had any clue. I'll put it under a spoiler in case y'all want to try guessing before finding out.
Spoiler:
Also, while said friend was trying to breed a shiny Goomy with the Masuda Method (he did finally succeed, and Goomez III is now a Goodra), he let one of our other friends and me name some of the junk Goomies. We came up with Loose Laura, Moist Megan, Herpy Hailey, and Crabby Claire (all inspired by Sticky Steve the Lileep, given to me by the first friend). I'll look up some of the ones on my game later.

Actually, that's probably it. But the stupid Pokemon League(r) won't let me ride my Pokemon into battle anyway so it's a moot point.
