RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread Oh, so that's who you give Rare Bones to. I didn't realize there was a fourth item maniac in the game. What determines the target of Acupressure? I know in single battles, Acupressure always targets the user, and in double battles, I've only seen it...

How would Transform work on something that IS a squishy malleable blob? Ditto can change its mass, chemical structure, and somehow gain knowledge of how to use the attacks of whatever it copied, which are all physically impossible. How does Pikachu do electric attacks without being grounded...

RE: The Competitive Battling Simple Questions Thread I apologize for the late response, but if you somehow obtain Morimoto's berry, it becomes a Hyper Potion when the battle finishes. I tried it already. Game Freak thinks of everything.

Masterge77, I like Glaceon to some extent. She is my favorite of the Eeveelutions. This was just a personal character design test, as it's taken me a couple of years to make a Glaceon character whose appearance I'm satisfied with.

Oh, people will buy them. Perhaps only those kids proudly carrying three boxes of booster packs and whatnot, but there'll be enough of them that the price will not plummet like with, say, Rayman Origins. Or maybe I'm just thinking of how it is around here. Pokémon Battle Revolution never went...

They also typically have the word "version" added to them too, as the Japanese Pokémon game names don't have them.

No, I live in Los Angeles, CA. I'm pretty sure this parenting style is nationwide, though I have no idea how it got started. All right. I hear about how a lot of people here would travel across their whole corner of the world and just stay places for the night. I personally would not sink more...

RE: The Competitive Battling Simple Questions Thread Thanks. I was initially going to put Wide Guard and Protect on the same Pokémon, but I wasn't sure if it'd be redundant or not. Well, that's one move slot I could use for something better! I would disagree on that. I would say Dahlia's...

RE: Art Questions Thread Regarding transparency, I use GIMP. PNG and GIF are the main image formats that people use for transparency. GIF is smaller in filesize but is limited to 256 colors and can't do partial transparency. What do you have trouble on with GIMP? It took me a while to learn...

RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread Could you have been playing for 15 to 20 minutes less than 24 hours prior to this session? They keep track of the exact times you go in and out of the Dream World, after all.

You don't need Regirock, Regice, and Registeel to get Regigigas--those were triggers specific to the Ruby/Sspphire/Emerald versions. Regigigas could just as easily be hanging out somewhere and caught like most other Legendary Pokémon, like Mewtwo or (original) Kyurem.

By the way, are some people also putting in the price of hotel rooms and whatnot if they go to a tournament that's particularly far away? That's the main deterrent for me: I'm not going to pay $80+ to play the card game with a bunch of people for one more day. (And, of course, getting up at 3 AM...

Well, you'd see its butt if it's flying away from you. If you're trying to capture it, that's the natural thing something would do.

Every time I look at a set, I look to see which cards Tomokazu Komiya has done. It's only Drilbur in this set, isn't it? I've also never heard of Megumi Mizutani before. Is she a new illustrator? I like how she drew N remarkably on-model, but you can still tell it's not Sugimori's work...

It is indeed a band. But somebody had to have named it. (And I wouldn't be surprised if they threw in a Durant Durant joke into the anime. Or the games.)

RE: The Competitive Battling Simple Questions Thread All right, I suppose that question I have about Assist is something nobody here really knows. I got another question though. Since this cocerns doubles and triples, I'm guessing someone here knows: Will Wide Guard protect the user from...

Something like this? Also, I don't think the Soul Dew will be coming back. Since it's banned in official tournaments, Nintendo and Game Freak know it's overpowered.

Team Plasma was never really disbanded. N defected, Ghetsis went into hiding, and the other Sages were arrested. However, the rank-and-file remain, and they could get Team Plamsa back up and running again. Team Rocket attempted that in Gold/Silver. (They weren't much of a threat though.)

What about those who named Lisa Lisa, Duran Duran, Mario P. Mario, Humbert Humbert, Sheri O'Teri, and Shawn Johnson?

Mixing Pokémon and attacks? Personally, I don't mind the character design itself much--it just doesn't fit in with the theme. Unova is based on the United States, so the characters should dress like Americans. That's pretty much it. Well, and that blue orbit hair thing that Akuroma has. I...
