When I saw Zephyr's goodbye: I'm the only female PC again D:

But, yeah, like the others have said, it can't be helped if you lost interest. I just hope you'll come back soon!

On the topic of pseudos, though, I thought they are the ones with base stats of over 500? I now see that stats over 600s are considered real pseudos while the ones over 500 are called semi-pseudos on the Pokemon Wikia page: http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Pseudo_%26_Semi-Pseudo_Legendary_Pok%C3%A9mon

So, what I want to ask is are we lumping them all as "pseudos" or are we keeping them separate? Reason is because if we are lumping them together, I will have 2 pseudos (Volcarona and Kingdra/Dragonair) so I will change my lineup to avoid powerplaying.

@Darklight they are as follows:

Dragonite- Generation 1

Tyranitar- Gen 2

Metagross & Salamence- Gen 3

Garchomp- Gen 4

Hydreigon- Gen 5

Goodra- Gen 6

Those are the psuedos to which we are referring to. like chim said, there's only seven of them

EDIT: I just got ninja'd so freaking hard XD...

wait, no I didn't XD

Kind of sad you're leaving Zeph, but it's as everyone says: I don't want to force anyone to do something they don't want to.

Anything Below 600 is fine no matter how many you have. The reason Pseudos are a big issue is that they're rare, have fantastic stats all around except maybe one area or two, and are almost on par with Mega Evolutions (who all have stats around 600). The other issue is the fact that a majority of the Pseudos are very difficult to control, if not the most difficult (well, maybe Goodra is the exception) so I wouldn't the facility with trusting two very dangerous Pokemon to just anybody.

Oh, okay! Thank you!

I just remembered that Volcarona was considered "pseudo" a long time ago (don't remember where I heard this) so I mixed them up with semi-pseudos ^^;

People thought that it was a pseudo because it was given such a grand encounter in the black and white series. People just kind of assumed it was a pseudo without even checking its base stats.

The Pseudos get so many advantages that almost all of them have to be weakened with a quad weakness that has some form of priority. Look at all the Pseudos weak to Ice Shard or Mach punch. Metagross and Goodra are the only outliers because both are traditionally more defensive, Meta to counter Salamences Offense and Goodra being the first to innately focus on Special defense rather than sheer attacking power.

Corona deserves pseudo status because she's cute xDD

Makes sense. It would be like giving a grenade to a regular civilian with no experience in handling weapons.

lol! This makes me want to go back to my Dragonair plan and dropping Kingdra now. I'm planning a drama queen role for the last party member and dropped Dragonair originally because there were 2 Dragonites in the making at that time.

Anyways,The final mon of James's year 1 team will be Duster the Dancing Toxicroak.

Edit:Dropping the Potential Liepard for Gabriel the Houndoom,I keep coming back to this thing lol.

Well, I've already decided to drop the D-nite idea and just go with dual dragons Kingdra and Altaria for Mareek's final team, so... there probably aren't anymore XD

EDIT: and I've decided that Java, if he evolves at to his final stage at all, will not do so until the mid forties to early fifties. Just to ensure the others on Mareek's team will be powerful enough to subdue him when he (she) goes a bit... haywire, even despite him knowing every single strategy, tactic, and weakness of every team member.

And since honestly his evo only adds 20 points total to his BST and drains his defenses...

My next update with Phoebe is going to be my last before I start the next chapter. I suggest everyone reads it and not only the ones that are directly involved as it will explainhow Mega Evolution works. It's not because you have a Pokémon that can Mega Evolve that it will reach the requirements. Or that I'm going to be nice enough to let your PC find the correct stone.

This also means that I prefer people to finish up their interactions so we can go to the next day.

And now I go back to appartement hunting so I can get back into this when Chapter 5 starts.

Unless Turbo decides to change his mind or wants to do something different, I think my convos are pretty much wrapped up. Things are going to jump back to just Henry after this because Citrine and Henry's dad are leaving very early the next day. I think we can actually start tomorrow (or you can wait until all the battles wrap up).

@Commander: Nah, I'm personally fine with ending things the way they are if you are too.

@Jory: Guess Spitfyre'd feel lucky Mega Flygon doesn't exist from artist block. lol

Tomorrow is the final update and the start of the next chapter. If you still want to respond to Phoebe do so before I update.

I locked chapter 3 so I can start chapter 4. It will start with the Mega Evolution update so no one will miss it, followed by Evan's loss the next day.

Once the Cup is finished there's a break that will last 14 days. Students have the option to go home or to stay. It's not uncommon in Ymora for students to stay in the dorms. (I'm using the Belgian system I'm familiar with.) These 14 days are the Christmas Holidays and also New Year. This means certain NPCs might not be around if Jory and Dobby decide they aren't going to use them.

well, back home after the cup it is then...

And about the whole Conversion2 thing; Basically, I recently realized that I've been somewhat of a huge derp with that move ever since I've been using it back in chapter 2... and have accidently been using the gen 4 mechanics for it rather than how it should work from gen 5 onwards... yeah, just wanted to fix that for the future so I start using it right from this point onward. That's basically what the dialogue was all about.

And I have finally decided on a good theme for Mareek- use the two most defensively advantageous types, Steel, and to a lesser extent, Dragons (Eventually Java will make some type of suggestion considering nothing about the team has been actually planned out in actual character). already figured, I've got 2 dragons on there already, so...

Hell, I even gave him a Druddigon in the updated roster... just for shits and giggles. the combo makes it so the team resists the majority of types in some way or form, not to mention both types cover each other's weaknesses rather well

now if only there were a Timburr named Roy...

Be careful what you wish for.

Well damn... Azery's right.

nevermind, I guess my wish was technically granted long before it was even made XD

Students that go home miss the start of the plot. I'm using the Holiday to get certain characters out of the way so the students can run wild instead.
