Kurotsune

Iunno. Gingitsune was taken. I've answered that in the developer AMA, but the gist of it is, I'm indifferent. I know I can. I don't lie. You're okay, Flux. You're misguided in your fox beliefs, but you're okay. Potatoes are cool. And not really. I don't really have an opinion on you. You're a cool guy in general, but we don't really talk much. Hah. I think you already know the answer to that one. You're a dilligent learner, MDE, and you're open to feedback. Trust me when I say that puts you leagues ahead of most people.

My favorite pokémon is Lilligant. Because Lilligant is prettier I love it. Do you? Because I'm batman. No; Believe it or not, I put inhuman effort towards not judging people. I greatly enjoy pretending I do to fuck with them, though. It's not. It's step one; Eventually you'll be more assertive. Yes. I thought it was my mom. Because life is just too damn short. When I actually try to think about it, I feel like I'm sorta indifferent to you. You're a good guy who tries to do the right thing, or at least what you believe it to be, and I can get behind that even if I don't always agree with it.

I play vidyagames. Or read. Or give people life advice. Or tear my heart out in surprisingly emotional outbursts. I love mashed potatoes. You're a great guy. I've lost in touch with you, but from day one you showed just how amazingly compassionate and mature for your age you are. It's great to have you around. Probably spend a lot of time in the cemitery. You're my little brother, Mike. What else needs to be said?

You're given 1 month to live (with good health though). How do you spend said month? Right back at you.

I'm actually pretty good in monotype; From what I can see I'm likely among the best five players of that tier in the community, although I risk being too arrogant by saying that. That said I've really shitty luck when playing against Jericho for whatever reason and after a certain point I just start throwing for shits and giggles. I'm also halfway decent in NU. I'd love to finish visiting the greek temples I never got to, and I'd like to visit Olympia again. I'm currently learning French. You're okay, Ody. I just feel like you need to convey your feelings better; It gets confusing sometimes. I still live in Brazil. The true tag master saves their skills for the best time. Also I forgot. You're great, Vinny, but we need to talk more. You know how I feel about you, Ark. You're a good guy and I think most people don't account for how insightful you are.

I greatly enjoyed adding new moves because it was cool to see them in action. Plus they were usually small and easy to make, but each (except like Quash) has catastrophic results in terms of how far they affect player strategy and gameplay, so that's awesome. And you're okay, Huk. By my standards you're a young'un and it's hard not to see you as such, even though I guess compared to most people here you're pretty damn old. You're smart, though. And you're kind enough to not to do others what you'd rather not have done to yourself; Believe me when I say people like that are scarce. Just give yourself a break, okay? You're not as bad as you think you are. I noticed, but I figured I'd give him a pass. Winter. You're amazing, you know that?

'Sup? I figured I should have a personal one of these, for questions not pertaining reborn development. For all others, check the existing thread in Development Blog. Ask whatever you'd like, keeping in mind I hold the right to not answer any questions I don't want to answer. And since I had Neo do that, I figure I will too; Enclosed within will be my sincere opinion on you as a person, as pure as it can be. PS yes the thread only exists because of the pun

When Amethyst dies in episode 16. I'm kidding. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh My favorite moment is probably whenever the hero gets to do something really badass; I hype easily.

I've only one question for you. Did you really think creating an AMA would hide you from me...? DIO!

*Sneezes* Only in our hearts. how do you view the community currently? There's a lot of things I don't agree with, and some that I do. In general, member-wise, it's fine. I'm indifferent/don't interact with most people. I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. do you like how it has grown or nah? Amethyst is a personal friend and so I'm happy it's working out well for her, yes.

The better question would be; "Does Kurotsune ask for permission before they do anything?" The answer is still no.

I don't know if any other devs are in the know, but I figured out most of the E4 themes and almost the entire end of the plot around the time I joined. Incidentally, none of those match the speculations I've actually posted before that happened. As for people guessing stuff about the plot, I've seen some people get some stuff right, and a lot of people getting stuff wrong. The most interesting ones are the discussions about the champion.

1-> I'm guessing no. 2-> Probably! 3-> My favorite character in pokémon Reborn is, actually, Adrienn. I like their drive. 4-> I actually am not huge on TItania. 1-> As mentioned, Adrienn. 2-> I believe pokémon are free to love whatever or whoever they choose. 3-> I'd consider Team Meteor among the most fanatical in terms of what they're willing to do to achieve their objectives, but other teams would probably employ similar means if they had the technology. 4-> No. *Floats away* 1-> Not that I'm aware of? That'd be really easy to exploit. 2-> Maybe! 3-> Maybe sooner! We'll see. 4-> Maybe! 5-> Like this: No No It felt pretty thankless for a huge portion of it, but it got better. I can't really pinpoint the "hardest" thing as pokémon reborn is actually quite far below the complexity scale compared to my actual work. That said, online functionality has so far been the biggest challenge. I'd like to think a few months back it was both me and Amethyst in equal measures, but right now, it's Ame by far. I dunno!~ Amethyst decides most of the gym leader balances. Feedback tends to oscilate a lot between "He's so eeeaasssyyy" and "He's too haaaarrrrddd" across all gym leaders, Noel included. That said, players are always welcome to give feedback, as long as they're willing to accept the fact we reserve the right to not follow it. I still like the oldies better. But who knows?

Oh. In my opinion, at least, still no. The old ones are prettier.

Since this is all my fault, I volunteer as tribute! During your long expanse of time here, what would you say was the most defining - Be it interesting, annoying, or anything of the sort, as long as it caught your eye - moment you've witnessed/experienced? Also, does senpai notice me?

I'm not sure what your question is, but if I catch your drift, I'm guessing you're asking if we'll be replacing the 2D sprites for 3D models. If so, nope!

Yes. Right after I take over the server and instutite martial law. PS: If it looks like I'm deliberately ignoring your question, it's probably because I'm waiting for someone else to answer it.

She just hates Budew. Platinum Nuzlocke; I'm sure someone can find you the link.

That's a seeeekriiit. They're considered part of the Animation Team. You also forgot Inuki.

So this is an idea I've been toying with for a while and although episode discussions more or less already deal with this issue, I figured "Why not have a master topic for all miscellanious questions to the development staff?" And here we are. PS If this brings back the AMA flood then I'm sorry (but not actually that sorry) Use this thread to ask anything you'd like to any member of the development team, active or non, and should they feel like it, they'll respond. Cool? Cool. Just one thing; Don't ask anything directly related to the next episode of Pokémon Reborn! (Especially not release dates!), as the Episode Discussion threads already exist for that subject. Current team members: Team Leader: Amethyst Black Team advisors/managers: Kurotsune Blind Guardian Implementation (AKA The Factory): - Isaiah Lewis Quality Control (AKA Night's Watch): - Mumpelfink (Marcello) Animation Team Members - Koyo - Smeargletail - MDE General development assistants (Development/Graphics/Animations) - Inuki Sprite Support (+ Animations) - Jan Ask away!

It may have become obvious with my increasing presence in the forums as of late, but I'm slowly making my return to pokémon reborn. For now I will remain in my position as team advisor to the development and animation teams, but in the future I may slowly resume implementation or other development work. Not really a lot to say here; Thank you for your understanding and support, and as always, have a good one.

Fuck it Hat me up And one for the panther too

What, did you think we were done? Oh sweeties, far from it! Did you enjoy getting to play with your dwagwons? Did you? Well, how about we end this with a blast? During the entirety of the next week, from sunday to sunday, there will be sporadic sporadic prize pokémon tourneys, ending Sunday 13th of december with a final event for no one other than Dragonite, the OG pseudo-legendary! Details will be given further this week, with details for the random tourneys and minigames being given as they happen in showdown.
