Can't really say I blame them for not liking Cain. I certainly wasn't fond of him just suddenly hitting on me and shit. Made every scene with him very awkward for me.
I'm not sure if the guy doing the LP deliberately cherry picked the most "grimderp" looking starter shiny to make the game seem worse than it is about shinies or if they just randomly went with Snivy. Either way, you can tell a lot of the goons aren't just blindly hopping on a bandwagon in regards to bashing the game because most of them are actually praising the starter shinies. Especially Teenage Mutant Ninja Squirtle and Autumn Turtwig. So yeah, they're being cynical and critical, but hardly unfair. I'd personally say the complaint of the overuse of black on the starters shinies is a pretty valid one that would also extend to the rest of the pokemon in the game. A number of Reborn's shinies can be very unnecessarily "edgy" looking. The Wurmple-Dustox line is probably the best example. Because it's an entire evo line whose colour scheme is basically what would happen if you let a kid who's obsessed with Shadow the Edgehog recolour a pokemon.
Also, another major thing to note about Something Awful is its profanity filter. It will replace curse words with certain other phrases. This can be quite confusing to anyone unfamiliar with the site reading the LP, seeing odd phrases/words being tossed around like "gently caress" in place of "fuck", "loving" in place of "fucking", and "doo doo" in place of "shit". I'm sure you can find a full list somewhere.

Strange. Maybe list all the ones that you found haven't popped up in the dex so someone can figure out what's going on? Because I sure as hell have no clue why this would be happening.
Also maybe you should try and have someone trade you another one of those same pokemon you're having issues with to see if the dex counts it then? Would probably help determine if it's just a random occurrence or if it's just happening to specific pokemon.
-
Weird. I got a few pokemon from trades myself but they all show up in my dex just fine.

The Mareep line would probably suit Ireland the most. With how many bloody sheep there are around here. Zangoose might be another one that suits us given the story of how St Patrick drove all the snakes out is one of the bigger things people associate with us(though there's no evidence there were any snakes here to begin with, so maybe not). It's not entirely clear whether the Stag or the Irish Wolfhound is our national animal, so Stantler might work. Wolfhound wouldn't because there are no dog pokemon like the wolfhound.

Already showed you this glorious thing on discord, but here it is again, I guess. Happy birthday.
-
Huh? What was that? Wasn't listening.
Also, welcome to Reborn. -
If it's an expensive one, I'd look up how to fix this issue and try to fix it rather than immediately replace it.
-
Sounds interesting. I'll try it tomorrow.

They said I could become anything. I choose a Beyblade
Was that at Mega Mence or Slowbro?

I second Krookodile. Honestly, it looks like they were going out of their way to make its head look like... something else. >.>
Also second the keys. Because that thing almost makes Stunfisk look decent.
Pretty much anything that's pink and a blob.
Are we counting megas? Because I think Mega 'Mence, and Mega Slowbro deserve a mention.
-
I think you just have to jump on the sludge pile thing to proceed. Titania will move aside to let you through I think.
-
I played it once or twice. AI kicked my ass mercilessly.
Would probably play it again if someone's interested. Steam names the same as here. Seriously doubt you'll find someone else using the same icon.

well , there is Terra before you face her she said : " in a galaxy not very far away " , don't think i need to explain the reference
Terra also references Batman's backstory when the PC and the other circus gym leaders confront her about being a Meteor.
And then she references Megaman Battle Network as she enters the computer. Saying something like "Terra, jack in!"
The people in the right side of the arcade seem to be playing a MOBA. Most likely League of Legends because that's the one Ame plays. There's also a sidequest in Ametrine City where the PC helps a guy fight off a virus in his computer and afterwards he mentions something about doing solo queue or something and then tries to pretend he means he's going back to work by throwing a bunch of jargon around, hoping the PC buys it.

I believe that was one of the random NPCs in front of the Grand Stairway when you first pass through there.

Milk first is lunacy. And not the fun kind.

1. Why did you choose Captain Breakfast as your display name?
Basically, Dan and Ame were messing about coming up names like my original screen name(It was aquawaffle, btw, and I sometimes used magmapancake). The ones they came up with were aerialfrenchtoast, earthebelskivers or something like that and heartcrumpets. And then one of them said something like "with our powers combined, he is Captain Breakfast". And the rest is history.Also I was tired of people comparing my name to blue waffle, hence the change.
2. If you won 100000 dollars/euros/pesos/etc in a lottery, what would you do with it?
Waste it. Specifically on consoles and games and stuff like that.
3. How do you spend majority of your free time?
Wasting it here or on video games.
4. What are your favorite songs?
They vary. A lot. I'll play one song all the bloody time, then get bored of it, find something else, play that all the time, get bored of it, and so on. Not even sure what my favourite song is right now.
5. Have you ever had your first kiss? If so, at what age?
No.
6. What is your motivation in living life everyday?
I don't really have any.
7. What is better: school or work?
Work. You get paid for work(unless you're doing volunteer work or something, in which case, you get experience). You have to pay for school.
8. What is your favorite pokemon type and pokemon?
Flying and Salamence.
9. Who is your favorite fictional character? Why?
Only character who really comes to mind is Linebeck from The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. He's a cheap, lying, greedy, cowardly, conceited asshole who literally only let Link use his ship because he heard the ghost ship Link's after had tons of treasure onboard and Linebeck is fucking hilarious. Also his theme was one of those songs I obsessed over for a while.
10. Are you: the type of person who would give if someone asked you or the type of person who would approach the person needing something or neither?
The first one. I always assume if someone wanted my help or whatever they'd ask me and if they were asking nobody in particular for help that someone else would do a better job of helping them.
-
Yes, it's definitely possible. I traded a pokemon holding a lucky egg on my main file to another person, who then traded it to my hardcore file(because I missed the lucky egg in Hardcore).

Already showed ya this on Discord, but have an epic happy birthday anyway, Micky:
-
WHAT... is your name?
WHAT... is your quest?
WHAT... is your favourite colour?

You need to bring the Ralts to the Pokemon Psychologist in 7th Street. Getting the shrink to change the nature of your ralts costs 1 heart scale.
Edit: damn it. The Wizard ninja'd me.

I only played Fates: Conquest out of all the ones you asked about. And I enjoyed it for its gameplay, but the story's pretty bad. After seeing all the cutscenes once, I couldn't help but skip them all in subsequent playthroughs despite not doing that with most games I play. If plot's the biggest thing you're looking for, you may wanna skip Fates altogether, because I'm willing to bet the rest of Fates likely suffers from the same as Conquest in terms of its story.
Maybe you'd wanna wait for FE: Echoes? That's coming out in May.

I can't believe that you'd expect anything else on April Fool's Day. >.>

Can I just say I love this game all the more for introducing me to that Not the Bees! remix?

They change personality, to become better at battle. Real "fighters" get much more effective, brutal and/or relentless, after psychological damage and trauma(s), scars, troubling event over their shoulders. Why not pokemon, too? Same goes for "drugs". Professional athletes ingest "chemicals" and do drugs, specially designed for athletes. Becoming a battling machine or merely taking your body to its limits ALWAYS requires sacrifices, no?
Considering how Pokémon has always gone on about the bonds between you and your pokémon, how those bonds make you stronger and how they aren't mere tools for battle, the very idea of willingly forcing traumas onto pokemon to make them more effective fighters very much goes against all that. Even moreso than the breeding to be honest
Hell, this is basically the whole idea behind Shadow Pokemon in Colosseum and XD. Cipher "closed the doors to the hearts" of pokemon, making them into vicious fighting machines. And then you have to undo that.
New Nintendo Genres Coming in 2018?
in Gaming General
Posted
Game Freak themselves never do spin offs. They have other companies do that sort of thing instead.
Switch is handheld. Even if they advertise it as some "hybrid". Plus Game Freak confirmed they were making a game for the Switch themselves. Twice.
Pokemon "dips into other genres" all the time. Most recently, we have Pokken, a fighting game based off pokemon and Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, which is a rogue-like, as well as the puzzle game f2ps. And whatever Pokemon GO even is. And that's not even going into all the other spin offs from years back, like Pokemon Snap, Ranger, Conquest, etc. It's only recently that the Pokemon spin off well has seemingly dried up, for some reason.
"Nintendo isn't always keen on moving it's franchises across multiple genres" ...they do that all the time. Hell, they do this more than any other major publisher to my knowledge.
"like an online card game, RTS, FPS, or even a MOBA." Didn't they have an online version of the Pokemon TCG? One could argue Pikmin is an RTS. Metroid Prime is an FPS. Though neither are online, but I prefer single player and co-op anyway. So eh. And not even Nintendo could convince me to touch a moba with a 20 foot pole, so the lack of one is fine with me.
"We already have Super Smash Bros and other Nintendo games that pull characters from across multiple franchises, so it seems the next logical route is Nintendo drawing from their many franchises to support a bunch of new genres for online play." I'm all for there being more games where you can have Captain Falcon showing everyone his moves, but I'd think that constant crossover games like Smash would get old after a while.
I myself am fine with Nintendo sticking with single player stuff. That's what keeps me coming back(and most publishers seem to be entirely focused on getting multiplayer games made instead of single player ones, so Nintendo not going into mp too much isn't that big a deal for me).
