So, there's been an announcement of a Worldwide Pokémon Tournament, on the official Pokémon website. Sign ups are until next Thursday, and they'll be accepting the first 50,000 participants. The prize is 1,000 Pokémiles, if you rank or whatever, if that's a thing you're into. www.pokemon.com/us/pgl/2014-think-fast-competition-single-battle/ |

Here's a neat little thing I found like a week ago, an official artist at Game Freak named Tokia Sakba drew a bunch of fusion artwork of various Pokemon. www.skillupper.net/post/83001136126/tokiya-sakbaI'm honestly expecting this to be a thing by Gen VIII. |

Holy fuck those are amazing. Pokéfusions is a popular thing, but finding out that someone at Game Freak is also drawing them makes it better.

That timeline was quite easy to figure out IMO. I was far more interested in the first comment under that news post. I agree with the poster who wrote it - if Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will retcon out the original RSE just like FRLG and HGSS did to their first versions, then that would mean that Mega Evolution was already a thing in the Hoenn region way before Professor Sycamore and other scientists started reseaching it in Kalos (or at least made such a big deal out of it by saying that it's only known to exist in Kalos). I can't wait to see how they're going to explain this little plothole.

Well, there's no need for FireAlpaca! Lemme just uninstall it and I'll be right back! Um...Something video game related.... I've played up to half of Black 2. I felt like playing it, and since my boyfriend got Y, he's letting me play through Black 2. I can't seem to enjoy it without making maths with the IVs and the natures and I basically need an Internet connection whenever I play... I blame Persona. But then I got Rune Factory 4, Etrian Odyssey, Assassin's Creed Liberation HD, and ACIV Freedom Cry.... And a PS4, and Watch Dogs..... I don't really know what else to say about Black 2. I haven't gotten far enough for anything interesting to happen. I remember getting N's Zorua, and getting the... Fifth badge, I think... Edit: Whoops. I missed the "official artist" part. I get to keep FireAlpaca! Yay! |

Here's a neat little tip I learned about EVs and IVs while playing Pokemon games: The single-player story mode is RIDICULOUSLY easy so you don't need to bother with EVs or IVs unless you plan on playing competitively post-game.
The only time you'll need to properly breed Pokemon for anything regarding single player is probably the Battle Subway, but even that isn't entirely necessary.

But what if I wanted to be the best there ever was, so I can beat all the rest? I can't help it. I'm blaming Persona. It's not as complicated as Pokemon can be, but damn. >< |

It's not as complicated as Pokemon can be, but damn. >< But Persona does not have natures or IVs and in the more recent games are especially easy to get good stats and moves onto anything. I know. It's the thought process. "Okay, so this *insert type here* Pokemon/Persona could have this so I should avoid doing this. It also has a high *insert stat here* so I should use this to heighten *insert stat that blocks what the first stat is*" I suppose the fusion of Persona is like breeding, but you keep the first two Pokemon, and gain one more. You should see my fingers when I'm into battle in either... 'Not so much with the last three games, though... Or... Six... But if I know what the Pokemon is, I can kill it instantly. Also, I haven't played X or Y, yet. I'm waiting to see if there's gonna be a "Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum" version, or an X/Y 2, but I'm aware of how IV training is much simpler in it. ...And before I play X or Y, I have to find my boyfriend's White 2 that I lost... Dammit... |

The Fancy Pattern Vivillon, which was to be distributed when the GTS reached 100 million traded Pokémon, is available to download.
I got my Vivillon yesterday, at 7th July, this offer is available until 31st July. This Vivillon knows an exclusive move called Hold Hands.

That would be great, if I had the game! =D
I'm waiting to see if they make a "Crystal" version, or an X and Y 2.
I beat the Elite 4 on White 2, and did most of the post game, but it's my boyfriend's game, and we may have to sell it sometime... Buuuut for now, I'm trying to get through the White Tree thingy for the shiny Dratini.

I got my Vivillon today. I'll never use it, but at least it's fancy. I also caught a shiny Gurdurr on Victory Road yesterday. Its nature is Bold and its ability is Sheer Force. I'll never use it either but at least it's shiny.

I got my shiny Dratini for beating Aldler... Fire-hair guy's grandson. It's naughty nature, which is okay... I probably should have kept on going until I got a better nature, but at least it ups attack. Oh well. I guess I'm gonna be training the SECOND best DRAGONITE BITCHES...
Six more levels, and it'll be a Dragonair...
The best part is, I'm raising it from the very bottom. (Level 1) Though I probably should have started with more patience, 'cause I've just been killing Herdier's and Watchog's left and right on Route 1.
Imagine, if you will, the trainer from the last game (Black/White) finally coming home, just to see a pile of dead (prairie) dogs blocking his or her way. (In my case, her.)
...You CAN transfer Pokemon from Black 2, to X or Y, right? 'Caaaause, I AM planning on getting one of the two, eventually... 'Depending on what the next game (not the Ruby/Sapphire remakes) is/are gonna be, and I DO want to use my first IV-trained, kickass team on there, as well.

Yeah, but you need to buy Pokémon Bank.
