    You are an amazing bro for streaming.
  3. Nuzlocke Challenge

    I'm running through Ruby because it's the only game that doesn't have breeding stuff on it. Part 1:http://railith.deviantart.com/#/d2rjnb2 Part 2:http://railith.deviantart.com/#/d2s4a0s
  4. The Growth of Competitive Pokemon

    It is different because you do not have access to all parts of the multiplayer component at the beginning of the game. It would be like playing Starcraft where one person can only use tier 1 units while the other player has the entire tech tree. The simulators offer every player every Pokemon...
  5. The Growth of Competitive Pokemon

    All this proves is that Shoddy Battle and other online simulators are viable competitive games. RavePenbur points out that a person that picks up the games will not be able to begin to compete with others until he or she does a set amount of long tasks in the game. This will take a very long...
  6. The Growth of Competitive Pokemon

    Only with WoW players. The only games that have a legitimate tourney scene are fighting games and Starcraft in Korea. Both of those do not require time sinks of unrelated game activity to compete.
  7. The Growth of Competitive Pokemon

    Pokemon will never work as a "competitive" game. You should compare Pokemon to WoW instead of Smash Brothers and fighting games.
  8. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    They are only concerned about the target demographic of the games who are children 12 and under. That is why there are so many legendary Pokemon and grinding because kids love beating everything with level 100s. The minor jokes you are seeing in game are from the translators.
  9. How do you play Pokemon in-game?

    I use a team of four with two HM slaves. I'll usually port over some 100s if I'm able to keep the game flowing with minimal grind.
  10. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    I do not like grinding.
  11. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    I would like for them to cap the levels at 50. Most Pokemon don't learn any new moves post 50 anyways.
  12. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    IV breeding and the grind are why I don't play on the cart anymore. There are plenty of video and board games that have been around for much longer than the Pogeymans. IVs create an uneven playing field by having a secret mechanic that can only be manipulated by a grind so boring that you said...
  13. Pokemon Black & White, aka Gen 5. Coming to Japan in Fall 2010.

    Why should a game have a feature that is so boring that you have to do something else to make it enjoyable?

    How do you get a Shiftry with Fake Out and Explosion?
  15. Is Splitting the Pain Worth It?

    I'd use rest over pain split if you want recovery.
  16. What's your favourite lead?

    I really like Infernape because it can set up break sashes, set up rocks, and has two nice high power STAB attacks.
