There's also the Uri Geller case, where he claimed that 1) Kadabra was a ripoff of himself (he's supposedly a psychic who bends spoons) and 2) Kadabra is anti-Semitic because of the star on its forehead. Although he didn't win the case, apparently Kadabra hasn't appeared in the trading card game ever since because of him.

No one does, not even Ame. It hasn't been determined yet.

Pressure makes sense for a time-based Pokemon, because it's like it fast-forwards to the future to where a move is used again . o . When I first looked at it, I thought it looked like a crab and assumed it'd be Water.

They'll make a Zygarde-based game next gen and catch us off garde.

Also, I just realized this is the second gen where the Grass starter has a dual typing while the other two don't. It happened in Gen 1 with Bulbasaur being Grass/Poison. Bulbasaur and Rowlet are also the only two starters to be dual-typed in their first stage.

In ORAS, it was explicitly said by Archie/Maxie that in order to revert the world back to where it was, Primal Kyogre/Groudon "brings death to every life form on the planet". Granted, Lavender Town/Pokemon Tower was even darker than that and so are some Pokedex entries.

Popplio reminds me of the seals at water parks that do tricks like balancing balls on their head.

No, they're not. There's a berry shop in Blackview, but as of current release it isn't open yet.

Yay, the teasing is finally done The starters are adorable and I'm legitimately not sure which one I want. I've always had a clear preference before (which sometimes changed when seeing evolved forms), but if the middle and final stages deliver than I could see myself playing three files for each of them. The player characters look kind of bland, but it's nice to see customization is back. Both the legendary mascots are majestic. The region seems small compared to other regions, but maybe we didn't see the full map. It also definitely seems like the region the NPC with the strange souvenir was talking about, based on the totems/statues. Alomomola should be part of the regional dex.

IIRC, you need to win 5 battles and then talk to the guy sitting on the couch near the entrance to get into the High Roller battles. Also, you need to have rescued Emily.

Yikes, that sounds scary. My first thought when reading this was "There's probably a body in that bag".

An endless plate of nachos. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being least likely and 10 being most likely, how plausible would you consider it for you to be in a conflict with someone over the ownership of a cactus?

Caz, someone I know wanted me to tell you she thinks your game looks awesome (she doesn't have a computer right now and can't play, but she used to be a member here and I sometimes tell her about the fangames)

Finding all of the police officers before battling ZEL and Taka leads to different scenes with Corey, along with a different field effect. It goes into detail about why he joined Team Meteor. Whether or not you win against Solaris's Garchomp at Pyrous Mountain determines whether you battle him at the mansion with Florinia or Julia, and winning also adds more dialogue between Fern and Florinia at the mansion. If you side with El, you don't have to beat Dittoceus. You do have to if you side with Radomus. For Blake, it actually is sort of significant since saying no to him every time leads to a battle with Aster and him bringing Eclipse's body to her house, also allowing you to get the Shiny Charm (Ame did say those who didn't do this will still be able to get it, though). Choosing to battle Taka or not at the Water Treatment Center, which I imagine will be important later on. There's whether or not you beg to Fern in the cage, but that currently doesn't effect anything outside of the scene itself. I imagine it'll be a relationship variable for E16 where begging is +Fern, -Taka and not begging is +Taka, -Fern.

For the one in Keneph: Keep clicking on the wall until it moves, revealing a passage behind it. For Redcliff: In the braille room, click on the tablets in this order: CENTRE NORTHEAST SOUTHWEST SOUTHEAST NORTHWEST NORTHEAST SOUTHWEST SOUTHEAST NORTHWEST CENTRE. Then in the Bidoof room, talk to the four Bidoof at the leftmost part of the room from top to bottom.

What if she's called Madame X because she's a product of Chemical X like the Powerpuff Girls? . o .

General Availability: Usually any time I'm not sleeping, so let's say around 8:00 AM - 12:00 AM EST. However within the next few months I'm going to Ireland and I'm not sure when yet and I probably won't be able to use the internet very much if at all when I'm there. I hope that can be worked around but if not I understand.

Sorry if I'm one of the people who was off-topic. I talked about the issues themselves because one of the questions was where we stand on those issues, but I did forget about the other questions while I was replying. Re: logical consistency. I'd like to think I'm logically consistent here because I don't use "Criminals don't care about laws" as an argument for or against any issue. I find the argument itself flawed for reasons I mentioned. The key word is "here" because I'm sure there are other areas where I'm not logically consistent and haven't even realized, on account of being human/not perfect. Just not with this specific argument. Re: important to political identity. Yes, I think logical consistency is important in peoples' political opinions. If the same argument someone uses to support one opinion can be used against them for an issue they oppose, they should rethink their arguments and positions. Or they could try to make a very strong case for why there should be an exception for a certain issue.

I'm about to take on Emily (for the third time, she's 40% more difficult on this playthrough for some reason) and this is my team: Froslass probably isn't a permanent team member, since I tend to not use duplicate typings and Walrein is Ice type. But for now while I don't have a 6th permanent member, it offers support with Captivate and is a way to quickly deal with Gallade, which appears on a few trainers' teams in this episode and who I otherwise don't have super effective moves for. I'm thinking of having Clefable be my sixth member, but I'm waiting to complete that sidequest until at least after beating Emily so the level cap is a little higher. Also Toxicroak is holding Expert Belt. I gave it that to get back some of the damage it would lose against Tristan with Route 4's field.

I didn't even know what a leitmotiv was (or who Wagner is) and had to look it up just now.

My guesses 1: Enemy team grunt or admin battle theme 2: Enemy team encounter theme 3: A city/town or special event music (i.e. emotion in bw)

I don't like the "Criminals don't care about laws" argument for similar reasons to what Tomas/Catherine said. If it's considered a legit argument, than we might as well get rid of every law and let people set towns on fire for fun. I also hate the similar "We'll never get rid of bullying, so let's just tell people to grow a thicker skin!" argument. The purpose of a law isn't to stop people from doing an activity in the first place, since that's impossible (unless they've made mention they want to do it and someone tips the police off before they have a chance to go through with it, but not all criminals are that incompetent). The purpose is to stop the person once the crime has been committed. Using an example with Reborn: someone joins to post links to R7 sites. Because there's a rule against R7, the links will be deleted and the person will likely be banned. If Reborn didn't have rules, they could just spam every topic with the links. I'm not sure how to feel about guns yet (I've been on both sides before), but a misunderstanding I used to have is that I thought gun control = taking guns away from everyone, which I now know isn't true. Some people are against both banning and regulating, but I thought it was worth mentioning because of how many people think they're the same. Right now I lean towards control because something can and should be done about the shootings that happen here on an almost daily basis, and from what I've heard the U.S. is the only country where this happens so often. Some people say "If they don't have access to guns, they'll use something else" but I think fists and knives and such are a lot easier to escape from than a gun. Bullets are faster than most people, but if someone has to be near you in order to attack, it's easier to outrun/get away from then than it would be if they were shooting you with a super powerful pointy thing that's gotta go fast. Plus in the ideal scenario where the aggressor didn't get a gun because they failed a background check and someone who passed and has a gun is nearby, the one with the gun can shoot down the aggressor before they can hurt anyone. For bathrooms, I personally think public restrooms are gross and I would never ever ever ever ever use one under any circumstances ever, but people should be able to use whichever corresponds to the gender they identify with. For assault, assaults happen in bathrooms already (it's a VERY common place for bullying at schools, from what I've heard) and I haven't heard anyone care unless it has to do with transgender people wanting to use the bathroom they're most comfortable with.

In the status thread, Ame linked to an explanation of what each category means. Here's what misc refers to: "I've included this as a catch-all for things that don't really fit into any of the above categories, need to be added later, or otherwise just need special attention. Some examples in this in the current case includes replacing some problematic music, designing a couple new trainer classes, and creating a new sidequest condition that doesn't fit snugly into either the scripting or event categories. Progress for this section is likely to be relatively volatile."

I was thinking that too. Also, Tristan's entire character and appearance reminds me of Kabuto's.
