  1. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/randombattle-103293287 This was just a funny random battle I had on showdown. Stat boosts and health regenerations really do go a long way, kids. Out of all the Pokémon I've used, I never expected to sweep with a Swoobat though. XD
  2. Venonant in either Gold, Silver or Crystal. I think I found it in the bug catching contest. I thought it was cool that other pokémon could be different colors too.
  3. Yep, I'm indeed a dude. I'm not THAT kind of bunny. =P And I can't promise anything about your carrots, Tenshine. Just keep them safe, 'kay?
  4. All right, I'll give this a go. Feel free to critique as much as you want. This is a character I created years ago so it won't be perfect. (Might as well trigger warning this, contains discussion of abuse) -Name: Kaleb -Age: 19 -Appearence Dark skin, brown eyes, dark brown and messy hair (usually has to make do with cutting it on his own, doesn't have the time, money, or skill to properly care for it). Approximately 5'9". Lean. Not generally one for winning fist-fights (though that doesn't stop him from trying...). Often wears a baggy, dark green jacket and hole-y, tattered down pants. Cigarette burn scars on his arms (part of the reason he prefers to wear a jacket). Wears black, leather boots he stole a while back, as he needed a pair of shoes that would last long. Physically fit, but often sleep deprived or malnourished. Looks like a homeless/runaway kid from a bad neighborhood. -Personality/Characteristics Stand-offish, vulgar, bit of a prick really. He can be found smiling at half-past never and can be found angry or frustrated almost always. Difficult to get along with, few people really have the patience to put up with him. Temperamental, of course. Stubborn too. His pride gets in the way of him listening to reason. He's often compared to a Tauros because of this. Does, however, have a heart for weaker things as he's often felt like the underdog throughout his life. When it comes to something he cares about, he will get overprotective and controlling. There is little he does care about, though, or at least little he will admit to caring about. -Background (generic, will make more specific if/when I join an RP) Grew up in the rough part of Saffron city. Not exactly the slums, but definitely not paradise either. The only child of an unintended pregnancy that resulted in the death of his mother. His father became an alcoholic and blamed him for everything that went wrong with his life, abusing Kaleb and becoming the source of the aforementioned cigarette burn scars. He wasn't in this home for very long (he was placed in a foster care system around the age of 7 when his father eventually ran out on him), but he still never recovered from the abuse. Foster care wasn't much better. He was neglected and placed in a home with other boys who only made him rougher. By the age of 12, he ran away and took to supporting himself. The first Pokémon he met was a Mankey. Kaleb discovered him abandoned and felt close to him as he also had a bit of an anger problem. Eventually he named him Lars and they grew up together. Kaleb became somewhat proficient at battling with Lars, though they lost quite a few times in their day which caused Kaleb to take things out on Lars a bit more than he should have. When he was 16, Kaleb finally decided to start traveling with Lars and got out of Saffron City. He made it to Mt. Silver a year later, where he bonded with a Larvitar he found there. The Larvitar was a different color than most Pokémon around and she was also quite a bit weaker. Like with Lars, he got that and decided to protect it and keep it as part of his team. He named her Terry. Supposedly that was his mom's name. Lars and Terry became the only family Kaleb ever felt he really knew. Now 19 and having trained in Mt. Silver for 2 years, Kaleb's about ready to move on. Where he'll go, that'll become clear later. RP Universe: Pokeymanz, of course. I originally wrote him for a different Pokémon RP on an older forum (though I added a lot to the backstory that wasn't previously there) and I consider him to be pretty versatile. Hopefully I can find an RP that'll work for him.
  5. Volcarona, hit 'em up with a Bug Buzz. It's super effective!
  6. 7/10. Looks cool, but I don't understand the reference.
  7. Sorry, you get a tempest filled with bunny rabbits instead. Banana, go bananas with your post.
  8. Physically, almost nothing. I mean, I have an allergy to penicillin, but if I had to guess, none of you really care about that, haha. Mentally, I'm a rare case of someone who has high functioning Autism but doesn't have Asperger's. I started nonverbal and stuff. Now I'm in college and I don't get any extra academic help for any disability I might have. This is my own choice, I guess I'm trying to prove that I'm just as normal and capable as everyone else (not that there's any shame in accepting help for a disability you have, I'm just stubborn). I also haven't had the greatest experience with people in the special ed field (often feels patronizing), so I often just like to pretend I'm normal. I'm high functioning enough to seem like someone who's just slightly socially awkward at times. I'm extremely thankful to be where I am today. As for undiagnosed shit, I often wonder if I have depression or generalized anxiety. Both of these run in my family, I've just never gone to a therapist for anything like this (though honestly, I sometimes feel like I should since the way I feel isn't just normal "sadness"). I get especially anxious around crowds. This is probably just a symptom of my autism, but maybe I'm agoraphobic? Who knows. Also, this isn't really "wrong" but possibly as a side effect of my autism, my memory is rly gud.* Apparently it's been tested. I can remember things exactly that most people can only remember vaguely. I also have really high strung senses. Which can be a good or a bad thing (bad because I react too much to people touching me, good because I react too much to people touching me). I also apparently used to have an auditory processing disorder, but considering my sense of pitch is actually better than most people's now, that's probably not the case anymore. Might be because of the treatment I went through when I was really little. It was meant to make my hearing better, might have made it too good... I'm glad we have a thread like this where we can all be open about what's "wrong" with or just what's different about us. *I am so sorry
  9. If you don't like your new abilities, you can buy ability capsules in exchange for shards in 7th street. So it's not much to worry about.
  10. You cannot grasp the nature of Arkhidon's power How about the Tempest?
  11. Please, ladies, behave yourselves. Seriously though, I am the worst at taking pictures of myself, so I figured I'd upload an intentionally bad one. As if any picture of my beautiful mug could be considered "bad".
  12. My doctor once told me that going 7 days without making a bad pun makes one week.
  13. Part of Pokémon Online now! I'll be in my underwear on my trainer card for a while since either the sprite customization part of this website is broken on my computer or I simply don't know how to use it. Until then, enjoy my exhibitionist trainer card!
  14. I never had too much of a problem with Cinccino, I just spammed Heat Wave with my Arcanine until it died. Even if it used Rock Blast, my Arcanine had Reversal, which could do piles of damage if my HP got low enough. With this team, I'm not sure what to recommend, though. One thing I definitely recommend for once you get past the Cincinno is to have a Golem on deck. Especially one with Sturdy and Stealth Rock. You can use it to take care of the obnoxious and overpowered birds.
