Lol don't worry about that Shing. And thanks to all those who posted since my last post!

Insolent fools, how dare you make fun of my tsundere tendencies. Jokes aside, thanks everyone! I actually spent most of my day working for Se7en, but I am going on a well-deserved night out later

I just realized that, since making this topic, I had changed the set for Blissey, but I had forgotten to updtate the OP. So yeah, I remedied now.

Of course you are right, but... I stand by my point. IMO a more gradual approach (again, see my earlier The Rock example) would pay off more in the long run, compared to the current "You are going to get top face Reigns and by God you are going to LIKE it" approach. They are trying to force us to like the guy, but all they are achieving this way is to alienate even those, like me, who do like the guy. I too am afraid that they will put him in a Cena-esque "beat the heel of the month" format after WM, but that would be the tombstone on Roman's likeability, on his chances of ever being truly over. You know, what you call the "beat the heel of the month" format is actually the format that made WWE the colossus it is back when it emerged from the sea of the territorial system, first with Bruno and then with Hogan. Both massive face champions were booked into feuds with heels that were built up specifically to be their opponents, they would trash talk at each other, they would cross paths at house shows, and then they'd have the big PPV match in which the face champion would win. After the match, another heel would appear to challenge the face champion, and it's essentially rinse and repeat from there. Only, back then you'd have maybe 2 or 3 big PPV matches per year, now you have one per month. Meaning, the fans will grow bored of this format much faster, compared to the '80s. What blows my mind is that WWE is the company that changed the game, they are the ones who made history in the '80s by bringing wrestling first on national and then on worldwide TV, and then again in 2001 by beating WCW and becoming the single biggest company ever. This insistence of theirs in going back to the '80s formula basically means, that they cannot adapt to a change THEY THEMSELVES BROUGHT ABOUT. How stupid do you need to be to do everything in your power to change the game, only to remain stuck in a mentality from before the change?

No matter how hard I try, I cannot understand what WWE is thinking. Why insisting so stubbornly with Reigns? Why making it clear that they WANT the WM main event to be him vs HHH, a match that promises to bore everyone out of their mind? It is evident by now that Reigns, as talented as he is (I am not saying this sarcastically, I genuinely like the guy), cannot for one reason or another connect with the crowd. He cannot get over. And it is evident that the solution is not to just keep on pushing him and putting him in a boring match to main event WM. What pisses me off is the fact that Fastlane was a GREAT event. The two female matches, KO vs Dolph, AJ vs Y2J, the pre-show bout and the main event were all fantastic matches, with incredible amounts of talent displayed by everyone involved. It was a superb PPV that should have sent fans home happy... And instead, it ended with boos, because Reigns won. Look around the internet: everyone is posting negative comments on the PPV, everyone is shitting on it, the levels of indignation for the ending are something unheard of. If someone who hasn't seen the show were to judge only from such comments, they'd think it was a terrible PPV. On the contrary, it was great, but the poor, predictable, stubbornly booked finish to the main event, and the rage of the fans over it, overshadowed whatever good the show had to offer. Not to mention, it completely wasted the insanely strong booking Ambrose had enjoyed at RR: that finish made it clear that there were no long-term main event plans for him, and that Reigns was set to go to WM from the start... So what's the point in booking Ambrose so strongly at the Rumble? I really cannot understand what WWE is thinking. I mean, back in the nineties, when they pushed a young The Rock as the next top face and he failed to connect with the fans, they turned him heel, and the sheer amount of talent he displayed during his heel run caused the fans to finally accept him so that, when he turned face again, he finally became the top guy the company wanted him to be. Why won't they do the same with Reigns? Of course, he isn't nearly as charismatic as The Rock, so there is no guarantee that a heel turn would be as succesful... But heck, "no guarantee" is still better than the current situation, which IS guaranteed to get Roman nothing but boos. It pains me to say this because, again, I really like the guy and I wish he was given a fair chance, but it is a fact that there is no way, and I mean NO WAY, that Roman Reigns can possibly get over right now, not as long as he sticks to his current persona.

http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/mixandmega-334172896 Feint has won me SO MANY matches in situations identical to the one displayed. It's incredile how anti-meta it is. Glalilite Weavile is officially my fav mix and mega Pokemon.

There are 3 Pokemon we debated announcing. Problem is that, as Red mentioned, Zim got a flu so he didn't finish making vectors for any. As soon as he finishes one we will announce it. Meanwhile, let's show off Juu's skills some more: remember when I said that Looker would be in the game, and that it would be THAT Looker, no bait and switch? Welp, here is further proof: https://soundcloud.com/juuzou-72353936/looker-theme/s-7pgoV

DEDENNE STILL SUCKS Happy b-day Mde <3

Again, I know that we WANT to keep your criticism in mind (again, we have done just that with the available Pokemon in Ep 2), but I don't know if we CAN, given all the issues we have bumped into (the Essentials bug, Huk's technical difficulties, Azery's upcoming trip). We will do our best tho. And hey, "I feel like playing your game again" is the best compliment we can receive, so thanks for that

It makes no difference, really. Do keep in mind, however, that we are currently in the middle of development for Ep 2, which has encountered all the problems I detailed above. So yeah, while it is likely that we will keep your instances in mind (come to think of it, the list of Pokemon available for Ep 2 was redesigned specifically with your earlier criticism in mind), I cannot really promise it.
