  1. The Nostalgia Critic always has a point.
  2. Gardevoir did you really use his failure of a title...? I felt bad reading that. And hey, you'd be insane too if you lost your fourth attempt at a badge from Florinia... :c (No I'm not really insane, Amethyst of all people should've known that was an act)
  3. I feel as though I should comment, cause any artist likes his work to be noticed... That, and I don't wanna make it seem like I'm just waiting for my turn in the spotlight to say anything useful .-. It's been said so many times, but, most definitely, your strong point is facial expressions, and as evidenced by the Ursaring's scar (yes, I did notice =P) on page 23, you also pay attention to little details, which is nice. It's cool to see someone drawing all this out, the way they see it; Gives sort of a second view on how I always saw Reborn. (Granted I don't envision it half as often as I think you do...) It also helps that you're good at what you do (that is to say, drawing in general) in bringing your idea Reborn to paper; You pulled off Scizor beautifully, despite how difficult you say it was. Just one example, of course. In summary, basically what I'm trying to say is that you're doing very well in giving Reborn a backstory. I can't complain anymore about it lacking an actual plot anymore cause to be honest, the first season of the anime Reborn! was much the same; daily life and randomness, leading to a bit of seriousness and then along came the rest of the anime- which, by the way, is my favorite anime in existence, so, me saying your book is sorta like it is definitely a plus xD I'll try to be more detailed about each page from now on =P
  4. I agree with Will, however I must add Mismagius to his statement.
  5. Because it looks like him, Bullet xD
  6. Just wait until Mashew posts here and I'll use his avatar as my next contribution to this topic.
  7. I actually have one of these already: [img]http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll193/Ikaru_Kazuna/Everything%20Else/MissyandKro.jpg[/img] Lumineon and Honchkrow
  8. >implying my favorite Pokemon changed overnight
  9. uhhh the badges are what the trainer card is for, Ame.
  10. You know, I didn't even realize how short that battle was... I guess that's what happens when you're killing off half a team in a single round ._. And nice twist with the ancient log, Gardevoir, but why[b][/b] not bother reading the other two? Especially the second one, cause "I'm in it!" =P [size=1][color="#1A1A1A"]"Oh, and there's more gossip, but you don't get to know it. Ha!" <-- yeah, neither do you, silly.[/color][/size]
  11. [quote]for any reason above novelty?[/quote] More variety so people can't expect you to have a certain Pokemon if they've been watching you?
  12. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- NOT A COUPLE.
  13. I just filled up a box through browsing all the teams I've made before. That said, 30 Pokes ready to go =P
  14. That 666th battle was a huge loss on my part, bleh .-.
  15. [img]http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/hs641.snc3/27521_124926027545212_8268_n.jpg[/img] Happy Birthday Kitty!!!!~ (pic's not a kitty but meh)
  16. [quote]First of all, there's no need to brag Second of all, hax Third, it wasn't mah raeal team, only for testing Deoxys-S as a suspect[/quote] First of all, agreed Second of all, it happens and it's a part of the game and the only way you ever lose ever Third, I know you mean it but that is quite literally what they all say [quote]How come I knew Kajj posted this topic even without looking at the OP?[/quote] I dunno but so did I
  17. All Deoxys-S has is speed, big deal?
  18. Experience with Maplestory confirms the Tengu thingy, or at least helps it. There's a boss named Black Crow, and I don't get that name but the thing it drops when you kill it is called "Tengu's nose"; the boss itself is very similar to Shiftry, and it attacks with wind and everything. (I also say this without researching the actual tengu thingy)
  19. [quote]Ditto in Uber is another story however where there are hardly any priority to stop it from killing meaning it will Doro the hell out of the Tier.[/quote] Normal Arceus is one of the most dangerous Ubers, but, that's not the point I guess. Agreed with N8.
  20. I was there when they did all this, so I have no real issues. @ Ditto, it's definitely a good check to Pokemon that otherwise sweep entire teams. Even in Ubers, where we considered banishing it to. Arceus and Swords Dance? lol. Darkrai and Nasty Plot? lol. Rayquaza and Dragon Dance? lol. I'm with Ame: it should be available in all tiers. It copies that Pokemon; It's no more dangerous in OU than it is in UU and NU.
  21. [quote]My Sharpedo's Aqua Jet is always an OHKO. Just ran a damage calc. Also, I've taken out Nattorei with my Kingdra before. It hurts, and requires taking it up to some +6's, but with a Sub and some Baton Passed defense boosts, Nattorei can't touch Kingdra.[/quote] This. And Shell Break Aqua Jet from Abagoora is almost always a OHKO. Rocks included, it is guaranteed. I hated that son of a -female dog- mole until I started using Abagoora.
  22. [url="http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Ho-Oh_(Pokemon)#Origin"]From this Bulbapedia article:[/url] [quote]Origin Ho-Oh is based on the Huma bird, a legendary bird that is said to never rest, living its entire life flying continuously, and resurrects itself and others in its own ashes and flames. It is a symbol of fortune and friendship and will bestow happiness to anyone who simply glimpses it. Ho-Oh, like Moltres, is also based on the legend of the Phoenix; unlike Moltres, it is based more on the Fenghuang, the immortal phoenix of China. Many cultures view the Phoenix and Huma as symbols of resurrection; this is seen in Ho-Oh, which was reborn rising from its own ashes and had a hand in resurrecting Suicune, Raikou and Entei. It may also be based on many other firebirds; some examples are the Three-legged bird, Simurgh, and the Ember Bird. It also is similar to the rainbow-feathered bird god Achiyalabopa. Name origin Its English name is simply another way of transcribing 鳳凰 Hōō, which is the Japanese word for phoenix, specifically the Chinese phoenix, or Fènghuáng.[/quote] Not quite Japanese, but, it's definitely close. I don't have any other examples cause I never really thought about it, but, I found all this out when I went to go figure out just what Ho-Oh was supposed to be. ... On that note, I DO have another one. [url="http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Lugia_(Pokemon)#Origin"]From this Bulbapedia article:[/url] [quote]Origin Lugia is based on Ryūjin, a dragon who was the Shinto god of the sea, and lived on the ocean's floor. This can be further evidenced through its shiny form's colors, red and white, which were the colors of the coral in which the palace of Ryūgū-jō was made of. Appearance-wise, Lugia seems to be based on the Stegosaurus (back plates and tail spikes) and the Plesiosaur (long neck and swimming ability). Lugia may also be based on the Wyvern; a type of dragon that stands on two legs, has wings, a barbed or spiked tail, and usually has a long neck. Name origin Lugia's name may come from lutetium, a silverish element, which in turn is named after Lutetia, the Roman name for Paris, the city of light. Possibly also lugeo, meaning to lie dormant, alluding to the way Lugia lies at the bottom of the sea. The Lu- may come from luna, meaning moon. Lugia's name may be based on the Beluga whale, a white whale of the Arctic Ocean whose white coloration, marine habitat, and body shape are similar to Lugia.[/quote]
  23. Knight, if I didn't automatically associate that with Pit's spammy moves and annoying high-pitched voice, you'd have won. That said, I gotta give it to Will because, while Arceus is the god of all Pokemon, Will's fallen angel/grim reaper/thingie takes the cake.
  24. Nateh right? If so I've seen you once or twice on the server; methinks it'd be nice to see you around more often =P
