.... (Yes, this situation is worth exactly four dots)
Anyway, what's the deal with the in-game steroids? That's basically what all the stat-enhancing items are. Not that I don't use them.

.... (Yes, an ellipsis may end with a punctuation mark, thus allowing the fourth dot to act as a period).
I'm not entirely certain if what I'm interrupting is something important. So...I'll just let that brief recognition suffice as a follow-up.
More to the point, hoorah. I recently bought Pokemon: Diamond!
And, oh, what sweet fun leaks from those duel screens whenever I start to play. Taking off on another adventure, guided half-heartedly by another professor named after a tree...good times. But, like a sopping wad of gum, it loses its flavor. Thus, (because no one wants to chew on a bland, gooey ball of mush for too long), I have not played in quite a while, making my progress somewhere around the ranks of a novice (at best).
My pokeymans:
Pip Pirrip the Prinlup (lvl. 24)
Cleveland the Bibarel (lvl. 22)
Scout the Luxio (lvl. 23)
Pavarotti the Kricketune (lvl. 22)
Estella the Budew (lvl. 24)
Juliet the Beautifly (lvl. 22)
Cosette the Buneary (lvl. 22)
Mercutio the Buizel (lvl. 22)
Clover the Ponyta (lvl. 23)
Amadeus the Chingling (lvl. 22)

I'm rather picky about nicknames.

Ditch Ponyta. It is worthless.

Suffix · « **Reply #708 on:** September 02, 2007, 12:11:24 AM »

Now, now, he's entitled to his own party. I said it once, and I'll say it again: most any Pokémon has the potential to be good. Ponyta is part of that majority. Using the starter Pokémon as a comparison, I wouldn't say it's the best, but Rapidash has an above average physical attack ability.

The Blue Toad · « **Reply #709 on:** September 02, 2007, 12:16:24 AM »

Yeah...I needed a fire-type...
So when I saw Ponyta, I said, "Pritty!" and proceeded to waste a pokeball.
But at least she's named after George Orwell's fictional horse. That makes her a lot more powerful...in dissing communism!
*buh-bum -PISH-*

There's merit in keeping that many around the same level... I just set what I want on my team of six and train those.

I would never, ever battle you.

Mr. Wiggles · « **Reply #713 on:** September 28, 2007, 08:42:48 PM »

Manaphy event. Toys R' Us. Tomorrow. Get one or spend the next five years bawwing about Nintendo events never stopping outside your door and how unfair it is for a company to milk its customers of all their money just to get a legendary.

Doesn't that give the legendary some value? I got a Manaphy from Ranger, so I'm not going.

Mr. Wiggles · « **Reply #715 on:** September 29, 2007, 06:51:05 PM »

It does, but then people are always whining about legendaries being impossible to capture and how they can't fill up their pokedex despite the fact that a good chunk of them will never have the patience to go through it all.

Anyway, I got my Manaphy and according to the poster, it cannot be traded through the GTS. So, for anyone hoping to get one, their only chance now is to buy Pokemon Ranger, which at 30 bucks, is not worth the purchase.

Surprisingly, there were a bunch of people coming in and out of the store just to get one and it was weird seeing little kids walking in with their parents and then some middle aged guy walking in with his wife and a DS Lite.

Besides the Manaphy I traded this guy a shiny Bronzer for a shiny Camerupt and I battled another guy but the match ended in a stalemate because he had a wall of a Registeel and I had only my Jirachi left and even with Sandstorm in effect, there was no way either of us would lose.

* WarpRattler BAWWWWWWWWs for the next five years because he can't get a non-hacked Manaphy...

OH WAIT, I CAN PIRATE RANGER. NEVER MIND.

Actually, I could care less about Manaphy, or any other legendary. In fact, I haven't played Diamond in quite a while now...if I've been playing a Pokémon game lately, it's been Blue Rescue Team or Trozei!. If I could read Japanese, I'd probably be playing Darkness Expedition...

MaxVance · « **Reply #717 on:** September 30, 2007, 09:42:00 AM »

I imagine all the legendaries will eventually be avaliable at the Nintendo World store in New York City for those willing to make the pilgrimage.

Hacker Pikachu 25 · « **Reply #718 on:** October 05, 2007, 05:22:53 PM »

I have a theory on Aerodactyl's fossil,Old Amber.When Aerodactyl flourished, I think they ran into many pine trees. The sap hardend on Aerodactyl, and when it broke it off, some scales(It's DNA.) came off. My theory on fossils.

BP · « **Reply #719 on:** October 05, 2007, 07:05:42 PM »

Actually it's a reference to how mosquitoes with dinosaurs' blood, and therefore DNA, could be found perfectly preserved in the sap of trees (which is how Jurassic Park happened).
