    Fun Platinum Playthrough!

    Man, it's hard for me to remember to check in here, but I've fun reading through things so far! Since I never actually got to play through my own copy of Platinum (still; I have a horrible backlog of games atm), it's certainly scratching that Pokémon itch for me. And if you want a good...

    Well, you totally have to name someone after me now.

    I'm selling a bunch of my old cards to some local collectors. It was really fun seeing their faces light up at all the cards I had for them.

    I've been trying to stay as blind as possible for Sword/Shield, so could someone please give me a spoiler free explanation for the drama?

    Writing Cynter's Adventures in Alola - An Ultra Moon Playthrough (Updated: 22 May - Chapter 3)

    Yeah, I type up in Notepad and then copy/paste here, then add formatting as necessary. I've admittedly never been much a fan of this forum software, but it seems like it's just getting worse. Even now, I'm getting horrible lag while typing and some kind of broken pop-up keeps showing up below...

    Chapter 3: The Iki Town Festival Cynter's Pokémon Author's Notes: Man, I am no good at keeping any kind of schedule, am I? It took a while, but I'm finally back with an update. We're still in the early, tutorial parts of the game, so not much exciting is going on yet, but it's been fun...

    General Where Does Your Username Come From?

    Funnily enough, this is the only place where I go by the name "Athena". When I first signed up for PokéBeach eons ago, I felt like using a different screen name than usual, and I ended up opting for Artemis after the Greek goddess of the hunt. At some point, back before we migrated forum...

    Pokemon Everyone's Favorite Pokémon (This Week's Category: Mega Evolution Pokémon)

    Alola - Alolan Exeggutor. It's just fabulous. Baby - I don't really care much for baby forms, but if I had to choose one, probably Riolu. Resurrected - Ohman, this is a difficult choice. I really love quite a few of them. I think if I had to pick just one, I'd go with Tyrantrum. Dinos for the...

    Sure, no problem! I went ahead and added that to the last chapter just to help remind me for the next one.

    Chapter 2: Who built this stupid bridge, anyway? Cynter's Pokémon Author's Notes: It's been a little while, but we're finally here, another long chapter with hardly any action, woo! Admittedly, I was a bit surprised when I saw Lillie in her standard Nihilego-inspired outfit instead of...

    Just popping in quick to say that there won't be an update this week since I have a bunch of other important shit to write over the next couple days, and hubby has a long weekend so we'll be doing stuff together for the most part instead of me derping around playing video games.

    Chapter 1: A Terrifying Encounter Pokémon Get! Popoki Lv 5 Litten, Male Nature: Mild (+SpAtk/-Def) Ability: Blaze Author's Notes: I spent a lot of time thinking about what kind of Pokémon Cynter should choose for her starter. Litten definitely seems like the right choice, though, primarily...

    The airlines have pretty stringent security for this sort of thing. PokéBalls are a "checked luggage only" item, with the contents examined before hand to unsure no shenanigans. Pokémon outside of PokéBalls can either be transported in checked crates or brought into the cabin so long as the...

    Sometimes I find that the most interesting of story hooks can explicitly come from those places that people tend to ignore. It doesn't always work, obviously, but I think it's got a good shot in this particular case. Heroes can come from the most unlikely of places, after all. I was tempted to...

    Introduction: Flying to Alola Author's Notes: Hello, and welcome to Cynter's Adventures in Alola! I'd like to take a bit of time to discuss my thought processes in creating this narrator and predict a bit about we can expect to see with her in this story. When I first entertained the idea...
