Hi! Welcome back, Puyon! Speaking of Pokémon, you may want to join the up coming tournament...
On Columbus, I think the recent trend of demonizing the guy is a bit much. Granted, he seems to have been a really bad governor with a penchant for overly harsh punishments but calling him a mass murderer is a stretch. Most of the people who died under his rule did so because of disease. Yes, Columbus and/or his men were the ones who brought those diseases and infected the people, but it's not like that was intentional. Medical science in the 1500's was pretty rudimentary. The introduction of diseases to people who didn't have the proper antibodies to handle them was an extremely unfortunate accident by people who didn't know any better. And, like him or not, he did play a very important role in this country's history.

There are not many megas I dislike, but Slowbro is one of them. Its just....no.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
I thought Mega Slowbro was fake at first 'cause like... did you guys see that fake Mega Azumarill going around? You know, this one? I though the same person made the Slowbro, y'know, just goofing around. Because it just looks like Slowbro's head pasted on the shell thing. I still sort of want to believe that, but now we've got gameplay footage...
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Hi! Well, Connie is headed back to China so it's time for me to get caught up on my work (and video games). It's gonna be a busy few days.
Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
I don't care if that's confirmed fake. Every part of me would take that over Mega Slowbro.Silver wrote:You know, this one?

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
I've downloaded the new pokemon demo of AS/OR today. I can't wait to play it when I get in! There is a mega pokemon in there, however I understand mega steelix is Japan exclusive ATM.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Aloha! I'll still be upset if we don't get a mega Slowking. Because Slowking is the best.
I've just now noticed that a lot of my actual favourite pokemon are psychic type, which is odd, because I don't really like the psychic type as a whole.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Hi! I'm still surprised the X/Y starters don't have Mega forms. I'd love a Mega Graninja.
Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
They probably will some where along the lines. Gen 2 and Gen 4 and 5 don't have megas, but as with the remakes it just seems to be a matter of time.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
I can't wait for Gen 2 starters because Mega Meganium will be a thing. Not only could it potentially be a better Utility user than Venusaur, depending on what ability they give it anyway, but that name.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Hi! Speaking of Venasaur, I can't decided if I should keep mine as a Sunny Day sweeper or change it into more of a wall with Giga Drain and Sleep Powder. And speaking of Greninja, it's pretty awesome in Smash. I'm thinking it may become my new alternate character (Kirby is staying as my main), though I haven't tried out all the new guys yet, so we'll see. And speaking of odd name combinations, when playing Smash yesterday I ended up in a fight against Giant Little Mac, which was rather amusing.
Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Giant Little Mac is indeed very amusing. I also find Metal meta night and metal mega man funny for some reason.
Have you seen the mega evolution in smash yet? Pretty sweet, Little Mac and Bowser get a transformation as well. Ive had Brawl and Melee on Wii and Game cube, but this is the first game of the series I've really had a proper play with. I've unlocked everyone except Bowers Jnr.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Hi! I made unlocking all the characters and stages a priority, so I've got everyone now. Actually running them all through the various modes, however, will take quite a while. So far, Greninja and Mega Man are my favorite newcomers, though I've yet to try about half of them.
Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Duck hunt duo were a pain to unlock but they are actually really funny. There moves and animations make me laugh.
I like how you can customise the characters colours a little too, all my guys are purple LOL.
Robin is a really good character as are the other fire emblem characters.

Re: Return of the Revenge of the Son of Saying Hi to Josiah!
Hi! I wanted to like Robin, but just couldn't get the hang of playing him/her. Haven't tried Duck Hunt yet, but he/it/whatever looks amusing. I really haven't had that much time to play yet. I only started after Connie left about a week ago and have been trying to get a lot of different things done. I definitely want to stick with Smash until I've given all the new characters a good try. But I can't decide if I want to go on and try to finish all the challenges or move on to one of the other games I really want to play. Especially because I'll probably be doing all of this over again when Smash for Wii U is out.
