That was just an exaggeration. Articuno 'n the not-mentioned Sneasel are some'a my favorite Ice-types, whereas the two I specifically insulted most assuredly are not. Everythin' else is in the middle: I'm indifferent to 'em. Seel and Dewgong included.

And while I sure as **** don't like Jynx's design, honerable mention to it as I can at least appreciate the odd cultural phenomenon behind it.

Yeah they put so much thought into some of those Pokemon... and then some parents just butchered it

 

[Pnut]

I've trying to avoid saying ****! You mean I could have been saying it the whole time?

 

[Tragonight]

The only cuss word that's censored on WiiChat is fuck, I think.

 

[Pnut]

such a shame . I swear like a 'strayian.

 

[Splash_King]

There're other censored words, such as cunt.

On the topic of Jynx, ya can't really blame foreigners for forging controversy where there is none. It's the same as the TCG's swastika-but-not-really controversy: things which coincide with perfectly normal Japanese culture can be (incorrectly) attributed with somethin' negative in a place where that culture isn't relevant. Your average American most assuredly does not know about Japanese fashion, nor the swastika's origins. It's only natural that a phenomenon as big as Pokemon, which comes from a place half way 'round the world, would be misinterpreted on a massive scale.

also jynx's design has no thought in it lol

 

[Pnut]

haven't been playing for the past little while. Been busy getting settled into my new desktop. well new to me.

 

[Splash_King]

No worries, no worries. If you're too busy or ain't enjoyin' your Challenge, no one will spit fire at ya for leavin' 'em idle. I myself have four Challenges on hold, currently. :lol:

 

[lucktown]

Those four challenges been there for a while I think ^^

 

[Splash_King]

Probably been a year by now for one'a them... ... ...

Challenge completed. Speed run of FireRed finished at 2:39:56, as always I have photos to show off to my friends and for any proof that may be required. All I really did was copy [video=youtube;XuFfLtX4rWA]http://youtube.com/watch?v=XuFfLtX4rWA[/video] to the best of my ability until I beat my best time. Sorry it took so long, studying for AP's among other things can take quite a long time. That being said, I'd like to sign up for a scramble challenge in HeartGold.
Edit: Link isn't showing, even after I tried editting it in again. If you really want to see the video, it's by Werster and was completed in 2:07:11

Pokemon Black 2 No Item/Scramble/Moveset Challenge, Update 4

Spoiler

I think the last thing I did was defeating Team Plasma for the first time after the PWT. My Pokemon are incredibly underleveled, so I actually had problems while going through the electric cave, but I managed to do it without black outs and finally evolved Gothita to get something useful. Skyla would have been near impossible, because I had no type advantage and couldn't even have hit Skarmory with a decent damaging move, but luckily I found Zebstrika (forgot that I could get it here) and named it FuzzBuzz. It was able to easily solo her and even got a bit lucky on the paralyze.

[Splash_King]

Then go give the thread a Max Revive via posting.

'Ey there Glomperful, welcome back. That's a ridiculously good time... excellently done. The lately-desolate Speed Challenge's Hall of Fame welcomes it lol.

****ing bugs

So I just for stuck in a tripple batttle, because I pressed Shift and only had 2 Pokemon and it wouldn't let me leave or switch in any Pokemon and had to softreset... Welcome back Skyla... I already got through Reverse Mountain and defeated my rival -.-

And what do you learn from that? Save your game frequently!!!

 

[Glomperful]

That's gotta suck lol. I haven't found a bug in ages, the last one being missingno in Yellow.
Edit: could somebody post some pokes for my scramble challenge so I can start? .___.
