  1. Happy birthday! Here's an ice cream sandwich
  2. For the Pokemon already revealed, you can look at the Fold's List of Announced Things thread. But for evolutions, they want players to find out for themselves who evolves into what and how.
  3. So this moreso deals with whenever we go to Agate City than it does E16, but I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING and not sure where else to post. Sleeping spell. Some people have suggested spores. Breloom can learn Spore. WHAT IF THE PULSE IN AGATE IS CLARICE/BRELOOMBOT?
  4. I guess I really can't tell the difference between them. This isn't the first time I thought a spider was a crab or vice versa.
  5. Everyone is calling it a spider. Am I the only one who thought it looked like a crab?
  6. There's something I'm very curious about relating to Tristan and the Ayrith League.
  7. There's four. Madelis, Geara, Neved, and Nastasia. I think it'd probably be one of the last two, if a Xen executive is involved. Madelis said she needed a vacation and we fought Geara not long ago. Neved hasn't been seen since Blacksteeple and Nastasia hasn't been seen since they left the old shadow factory. Both of those also attacked the ship.
  8. Team Xen. It would be interesting if there was an agent onboard like with the ship, except we caught them in time this time.
  9. Just interact with them. It sounds like a bug.
  10. Center NE SW SE NW NE SW SE NW Center in that order.
  11. I've never tried coffee, but I want to.
  12. ...oops, I forgot. Still doesn't spit flaming hairballs, though.
  13. Hidden. Open door would be very easy for other nations to take advantage of.
  14. I was picturing when it's known there's a kid, the doctor gives the tests. Basically it's paperwork, where they're given questions with check boxes and they fill in the one that matches them for each question. No one would be forced to abort whether they pass or fail. Also, if someone seeks help with addiction, that would make them one step closer to being eligible to be a parent. But if their addiction is to the point where it would get in the way of being a parent and they'd spend more time drinking (just an example, people can be addicted to literally anything) than with their kids, that's not a good environment. I don't think it would be "just as bad". It's true that it would be taking away rights from them, just like they don't believe same-sex couples should be allowed to marry. But the difference is that same-sex couples marrying harms no one, while homophobic people having kids harms those kids if they happen to be LGBT+. Again, I'm not talking about people who would still love them even if they disapprove of homosexuality. I'm talking about ones who would beat their kids, throw them out, or make them go through some kind of "conversion" ritual. Oh, speaking of conversion, I also just remembered about anti-vaxxers and their bleach enemas. They shouldn't be able to have kids either. Both of the above examples with addiction and homophobia fall under what you said about it being dangerous for kids to not get the love and attention they deserve. Parents with addiction wouldn't give them attention. Homophobic/transphobic parents wouldn't give them love if they didn't happen to turn out how they wanted. Anti-vaxxers would give them and possibly others preventable diseases. I'm not sure where you live or what parenting laws are like there, but here there are situations in which parents can be considered legally unfit to parent and have their children taken away from them. In what I'm describing, it's the same except it happens before the kid is born, not after the kid has been neglected or mistreated for years. There are problems with this that I didn't consider when I made that post, though. For the test I imagined, I'm sure some people who the tests would consider unfit would just lie about their answers, and no one would know until something bad ends up happening. From what I've heard, a lot of alcoholics think they don't have an addiction and that they can just quit any time, so as far as they're concerned they're telling the truth. And many homophobes would just think "No son/daughter of MINE is going to be gay" because they think it's a choice that they can prevent with religious parenting, so they'd lie and say yes to become a parent because they don't consider it as a possibility.
  15. All of the species for the starters have been done, but that doesn't mean they don't have unique features. We've had plenty of cats, but not a Fire one that spits out flaming hairballs. We've had seals, but not circus performing seals. We have an owl, but that's pretty much all Hoothoot and Rowlet have in common. I'm also not sure why people are worried about Rowlet becoming like Noctowl. They don't seem like they'll have even close to the same playstyle, and starters are 3 stage lines while Hoothoot + Noctowl is 2 stages.
  16. Design-wise, Infernape used to be one of my least favorite Pokemon because it gave me a mental image of someone lying unconscious in a hospital bed covered in their own dried blood. Usage-wise, I can't really do the "slow/stall/defensive" playstyle. I don't have the patience for it. So any starter that fits that would be the worst for me personally to use. Gastly line is Ghost/Poison.
  17. Ohhh ok, I thought those pics were Serra with other characters' hairstyles XD I think I might've misread something somewhere and that's why I thought it was all Serra.
  18. So, I am a kid. Specifically, I have a condition where I stopped developing, making me a kid forever. For that reason, it always makes me very uncomfortable when people talk about how much they hate kids, even though they're usually referring to ones half my age or younger. It's fine to not want to have kids. I wouldn't want them if I were able to have them. But I feel like outright hating is going a bit far. I wouldn't say it's on the same level as racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. because people who hate kids ~95% of the time don't harass or attack them, they just avoid them as much as they can, which is pretty much what some introverts do with people in general. But they still hate a group of people for something they have no control over and make generalizations about that group. For parenthood, I've always thought there should be tests to determine whether people should be able to parent. Here are some people who I think shouldn't be able to: -alcoholics or people who have some other kind of major addiction that gets in the way of daily functioning -people who have a history of anger issues/outbursts (MAYBE they can be considered eligible if they haven't had any recent ones and there's reason to believe they've changed) -people who wouldn't accept their children if they were LGBT+ (it's fine if they would still love them despite not approving, I'm talking ones who would for example beat their kids, throw them out on the streets, or make them go through some kind of "conversion" exercise)
