Ice Cream Sand Witch

Well, I don't really get woken up by anything, other than one time when I fell off my bed while sleeping.

We've been able to do that since V1. I forget exactly what you need to interact with, though. Try the computer in the glasses guy's house.

I don't remember how to take a proper screenshot, so here's a picture I took with my phone's camera, messaged to myself, and then copied and pasted

I misunderstood this at first and thought you meant the progress bar had just moved from 99-100 x . x

I think the bottom right will be Dragon because it looks like she has a fang necklace. I think the one next to Gaia will be Psychic because of the floating energy that I originally thought was part of Gaia's sprite. I think the one at the top will be either Fire or Fighting. He has a very interesting body type. Not sure about the Lt. Surge looking one (probably Fighting if the weird body guy doesn't use it) but I think he's Olivia's brother because Gallade mentioned him having shades. Lt. Surge has shades and this sprite uses Lt. Surge's HGSS sprite as a base for the body.

I was Joe King > x < Adam is short for Adamite, btw.

The first letter of Adam's name is A, which is also the first letter of Air, so he must be Flying. Gigalith wasn't a Pokemon he uses in gym battles. He was training it to understand more how Rock types work, since Flying is weak to Rock and he wants to be able to cover for his weaknesses.

If Gaia preferred Olivia to just let nature take care of the flowers, why didn't she mind a greenhouse or Nick making a temperature regulating machine? Aren't those also manmade? XD I look at the unrevealed leader silhouettes to try and guess their types, and I assumed this one was Psychic because of the hair (it kind of looked like the top right bit was floating or some kind of residual energy, but now I see that's part of the leader sprite to the right of her). So I was wrong for this one.

I've heard that eating food with a lot of potassium before bed like bananas or pizza can give you weird dreams.

Who's Miss Rainbow?

This is very helpful! I usually don't prepare my team until the leaders are announced in the room intro since I didn't want to prepare for someone specific when it turns out they're not there. Now I can prepare more in advance.

I thought the Black Foxes was going to be like an Aqua/Magma gang from Reborn type situation, but this is even way better!

I wonder if better AI means the leaders will switch Pokemon if they're at a disadvantage?

I think they meant the card key shard, which can be used in the current version to get shadow Beldum if you find them all.

Inverse puzzle sounds fun!

TFW you can't read your own handwriting.

About the story

This progress excites me. The Coral Ward one sounds like Shade is watching over a Happiny as its guardian angel. He looks ominous, but he really wants it to be safe and happy, and Happiny understands this.

I don't watch TV.

I haven't found one yet, so I'm happy to finally know what they look like It looks like a baby spider/ladybug hybrid.

In E15, there's actually an NPC in the Grand Hall that says she's been trying to contact a leader (Noel) for weeks but his caretaker isn't letting him battle.

Cold weather is easier to deal with. You can get less cold by using blankets or wearing a jacket or sweater. I don't know how you can get less hot. P.S. I almost accidentally typed "You can get less cold by eating blankets".

Sigmund was actually supposed to let them battle, but he didn't. Noel's gym arena was in the orphanage. If you talk to the machine outside it in E15, Ame says she didn't know Sigmund wasn't allowing battles.

My favorite scene in BW is when the gym leaders all show up and fight the sages. It was very disappointing to see the Gym Leaders go back to not do anything at all in XY after Gen 5 really excelled at giving them presence. Other than Korrina, I think the only Gym Leaders outside Gen 5 to actually do anything in the story were Giovanni, Jasmine, Clair, Norman, and Wallace (and Wattson if you include New Mauville). And Clair's role was to delay you getting a badge because she was too full of herself to admit she lost.

There was a while where I had some kind of "grudge" against Garchomp where I wouldn't use it just because it's Garchomp and no other reason. I'm not really sure what brought it on. Maybe a combination of difficulty against Cynthia's Garchomp + hearing about how godlike people online were saying it was in battle made me think I'd feel cheap for using it. I still haven't used it since Platinum's Battle Frontier but it's not because of that anymore, I just haven't felt compelled to use it.
