He's missing out on a lot of fun. I can't even get him to play any retro games. He's too content with Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and TOR.

He's no gamer.

So happy I just caught Zapdos in the Fast Ball. HIS BALL SHOULD HAVE A LIGHTNING BOLT ON IT!!!

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #24202 on:** April 30, 2013, 07:17:03 AM

Zapdos is

for me.

Quickman · **Reply #24203 on:** April 30, 2013, 07:33:06 AM

Wow, it's been so very long since I've played Pokemon... I forget what my Zapdos's name was. All I can remember are a random bunch of Pokemon I had, and not all of them were even on my team.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #24204 on:** April 30, 2013, 07:46:45 AM

My new one's name is Admiral Lightning!

Damn my grinding must be good, all my Pokemon are lv 52 and the Champion's final Pokemon is at lv 59 and I'm not even at Victory Road yet and still have to take down Team Plasma. I also love my new Starmie a lot, it's going to wreck [parasitic bomb] up everywhere.

I had a Pidgeot that I would use to cut a swathe of destruction. His name was PerkyTerky, raised him from a Pidgey, first Pokemon I caught. At some point, I had a Vulpix (Snausages) on my team, and a Pikachu (LoWattBulb), as I was playing Yellow. I refused to train that Pikachu, so all my efforts went to PerkyTerky and CheeseWhiz (a Ratata). Then, when PerkyTerky was kicking ass, I supplemented the team with an Aerodactyl (Wong Wei) and Mewtwo (Koko Roos). Kicking Elite 4 ass all across the board.

I can't tell if your naming scheme is weirder than PB's.

Quickman · **Reply #24208 on:** April 30, 2013, 08:07:31 AM

It's pretty weird, as I didn't use any theme. My player name was "Spanky," and the rival's name was "a loser."

Protoman Blues · **Reply #24209 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:28:07 AM

Naming Pokemon is fun!

Sakura Leic · **Reply #24210 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:29:00 AM

It truly is, I have no idea how I came up with so many food related names.

Amatiramisu · **Reply #24211 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:34:12 AM

One of them bugs who are attracted to light came over to my monitor to chill. Started waving my cursor around it. It's pretty freaked.

Madoka Magicka so cheery and kawaii desu~

I've never actually watched Meduka, don't intend to either. I know it's supposedly some kind of twisted dark [parasitic bomb] but honestly it looks pretty boring.

Quickman · **Reply #24212 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:47:52 AM

Back in the day, calling your rival "a loser" was considered novel. I was honestly surprised how so many people never thought about doing that.

And besides "a loser" worked better than "[sonic slicer]," "bastard," or anything else. How? Because Professor Oak would say, "This is my grandson. He is a loser." And then there's "a loser wants to fight." And the classic, "You have defeated a loser." It's the "a" that sells it.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #24213 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:51:32 AM

Yeah you need the A

Sakura Leic · **Reply #24214 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:52:36 AM

I never gave an insulting name to my rivals. $:\$

Quickman · **Reply #24215 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:55:41 AM

It was only in Pokemon that I did that. And with amusing results. Usually, characters are just given throwaway names, like Fozzie, Spanky, Iggy, Slappy, Boo, and Doobie. And that's because the first play was intended to be a test play, but I just end up completing the game with a name like Booger.

Rin · **Reply #24216 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:57:19 AM

I always give my rivals an insulting name, it's kinda like tradition for me.
Though sometimes, I call them by the nickname/name of my friend/s.

Also, I'm at the battle with Taihaku in .hack G.U.

He can AIDA HAX slow you down considerably, while giving you damage. Then he starts to [twin slasher] you while you're slowed down. And while that is happening you can't use the skills on him otherwise IT'S RED AURA EXPLOSION TO THE FACE YOU COCKMUNCH!

[tornado fang]. It seems I need to grind some.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #24217 on:** April 30, 2013, 10:00:41 AM

I usually called the rival Craig, who is evil Greg's name.

Somehow that makes too much sense.

People probably associate the anime with the games, seeing as the anime is much more... Childish, than the games are. That likely accounts for most of those kinds of people.

One word: 4Kids

Anyway, I haven't played any Pokémon in a while now. I still remember farming berries and rare candies in my Soul Silver playthrough. So far, I was doing nothing at that time but just stockpiling. Can't remember what to do next.

4Kids barely did anything to Pokemon.
You know why? Because they had nothing to do most of the time.
The only thing they did is MURIKKANIZE some things.
And skip an episode or two (the one with guns).

Pokemon was always childish, both the games and the anime. Even the manga.

This is the truth.

Though the games are kinda fun... sometimes.

Quickman · **Reply #24222 on:** April 30, 2013, 10:13:53 AM

And yet, us adults still love the hell out of it.

Note to self: Draw up Mewtwo with a lightsaber and put him on a t-shirt for awesomeness.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #24223 on:** April 30, 2013, 10:17:34 AM

Pokemon are awesome. Especially my adorable Cyndaquil!

So, I'm trying to convince a friend that Pokemon is nothing like MLP. He thinks that adult fans who enjoy the games are creepy, like Bronies are creepy.

This is a thing? Wow.

Anyways I have terrible coverage in this class for some reason.
