I don't care, I'm leaving that title just the way it is. It turns out that yes, you actually can get Secret Report 21 by defeating Panthera Cantus on Easy rather than needing to do it on Hard! If I had known that, I might have been able to get it in the DS version a while ago...I'll probably take a shot at that soon. But yeah, I got all 22 reports in TWEWY Solo Remix, watched the secret ending, and got to see Hype-chan! It's so much cooler when you earn it yourself! Not that that will st
You know, through most of this whole thing, I really wasn't sure which side to take. I can understand some points from both sides of the debate, and was hoping it would just kind of die down, but if anything it's just getting harder and harder to avoid, so I kept thinking about it and well... See, fan canon is a neat thing. But with Generation 1 (long) over, nothing that gets canonized at this point has any chance to affect official material. Really, all this new stuff can affect is people
The recent issue of Famitsu revealed some more information about The World Ends With You -LIVE Remix-. The game will be for iOS and Android devices and takes place in a parallel universe, similar to the Another Day bonus chapter in the original game. Players will be divided into teams of 20 and hunt down "Ringleader Noise" in order to earn points for the end of the week. Sounds like it won't have a lot of story to it. Oh, but they did mention the new character. They're calling her "Atarashi
In the end, going with "Mahou Shoujo Mega Man" would have messed up my current naming pattern, so I went with a different Star Force-inspired name instead. I love Mega Man Star Force. I love it so much.
Another Pokémon distribution is kicking off, but this one’s a little more complex than usual. A code just went up on the Pokémon website (PIKACHU20) that will allow you to download a special Pikachu wearing Ash’s cap. This Pikachu also comes with a unique Z Crystal, Pikashunium Z, letting it use its own super-exclusive Z Move, 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt! But! While you can only enter the code once, when you enter it will determine which cap the Pikachu is wearing. Of course, if you have
Er, put more eloquently, Slizer Mafia 2: Okotans’ Revenge. It’s up now in G&T! We need 25 players; when that’s reached, I’ll keep signups open for about 12 hours before getting underway. Last time the Judge Slizer was able to return to the year 2000, but what happened after that? Even if they were able to build a better future for the Slizer line, I have a feeling Bionicle isn’t going to take kindly to being shut down like that…
11:59 PM, Monday, December 1 I wanna be, the very best! Like no one ever waaaas! 12:00 AM, Tuesday, December 2 MY SANCTUARYYYY, MY SANCTUARY, YEAH! (Don't get too jealous of that "Limited Edition", all it means is "free pin".) There are still Legendaries and Mega Stones to hunt down in Omega Ruby, but what remains will have to wait, I’m afraid. Today is the release of…hold on a second, ahem…Kingdom Hearts HD II.5 ReMIX. (Phew.) This game contains the previously Japan-exclusive
Christina is mad about Steins;Gate 0 taking place in a worldline where she is dead, so she went to the Sinnoh region and used a growth serum to make a Giga Turtwig. She is now training it. When it evolves into a kaiju-sized Torterra, then she’ll make them pay.
I don’t do this often, this is weird, anyway. I got a new job! A bit nervous about some of the specifics, but I’m excited, and really hoping that it’ll work out. I’ve had my…current? Former? Job for just about 5 years, which is a good number in my book and I have had more than enough of it, though I will miss several of my coworkers. I’m going for an orientation on Tuesday, and I should officially start the last week of May. The thing is, I’m moving from part time to full time, and I’m
Well, it’s February. You know what that means! But for the sake of having a long blog post I’m going to pretend you don’t. It means that if you go to GameStop you can get a Mew. I believe this one is a serial code distribution, so you’ll need to ask at the counter. Also someone should set the serial code card under a truck and take a picture, it would be funny. Just remember to pick it up afterwards, littering is bad. Now go get Mew. 721 HERE WE COME!
Nearly four years ago I joined Twitter so I could enter a giveaway for the 2015 Toa sets. (I didn’t win.) Now I’m thinking maybe I should actually use that account and see if I can better promote my writing or something. So if you’d like, you can find me @ExoPahrak. I’ll be posting about what I’m writing, when you might be able to expect to read it, and whatever’s distracting me from doing it in a speedy manner. And on that topic, probably don’t expect much in the near near future because O
I tried a randomized Diamond but it didn't go so well: my computer doesn't run the DS emulator so well, and the first Gym was a Dragon Gym with legendaries. So now I'm doing a randomized Leaf Green. I wasn't sure what to expect when the starters were Squirtle, Torchic, and Nidoran (male), or when Nidoran's ability turned out to be Oblivious. (He does have Sketch, though!) When I went onto Route 1 and caught a Celebi with Wonder Guard, though, I knew this was gonna be great. (Granted Celebi h
It is more apparent than ever that Technic Coliseum is on its last legs. As such, the June tournament will be the last tournament. The successor, Technic Warzone, will begin later that month to give players a week or two to adjust before the first tournament in July. This decision is final. What is not finalized, and needs to be by the time Coliseum ends, are the exact details on how Warzone will be conducted. I posted a draft a while back--if I do not receive any feedback on potential chan
Y'all need to chill the heck out There isn't anything I can say that hasn't already been said probably but whatevs Maybe it's real. Maybe it isn't. We're not going to know for sure until we get an official word and/or it's 2015. A little hopeful excitement is understandable, as is a little pessimistic displeasure should it be true, along with some irritation should you think it's fake. But seriously: chill out People of all stances have been taking this way too seriously. Even if
-Venusaur ("Saur", "Triffid" (Mega)) -Nidoking ("Arthur") I'll be frank: I don't like Poison. I'm perfectly fine with it having two Gyms and no legendaries, and I never had any real reason to put it on my team. Of course, now that it has a type advantage over Fairy, it's infinitely more useful, so maybe I'll get more use out of it in the future. All that being said, the Pokemon listed above were all absolutely phenomenal parts of my team. My LeafGreen Venusaur was able to defeat my rival's
I decided it was about time I change my name yet again, as if my display name history isn't long enough already. I'm just an average Pahrak, sitting in a Bohrok nest waiting to clean it all. It's a simple life. They opened a website for Kingdom Hearts X [chi], but it doesn't have much--just a link to sign up for the beta, which I imagine is Japan-exclusive. Also Kingdom Hearts 1.5 was released, but meh. Later this month they're releasing the Pikachu 3DS XL in America. It's actually a pre
Sorry it's been so long since the last chapter of Sekai, but I got distracted by a video game. As usual. I put up a new chapter today, though, showing lots of Forbidden Techniques and Rien vs. Kikanalo, where Rien explains why Spirit Weapon is so powerful. Hopefully I'll be able to get the next chapter up sooner; I'm not finished with the game I'm playing, but I'm almost done.
As far as writing goes, I finished the Mutant-Isle arc (which took about half of a 70-sheet notebook) and moved on
Technic Tournament 3 & Knuckles has officially begun! Players can join whenever, but it’ll only get harder to catch up with each round that passes! Round 1 will last for one week, and then all following rounds will last only four days at most. Your best shot at ending up with the highest profit is by joining before the first round ends!
New Pokemon news, woo! But, I'll save that for later... This post is mainly for keeping you guys updated on VRHS...and then, of course, Legend of Korra thoughts. VRHS: -I decided to modify the player vs player regulations as requested. -Players of the same version still have to use the Olmak Breach to interact with each other. This was mainly to save time, since PvP could take quite a while, but if you have a ghost taking care of it while you go make progress on your own...might help. -Added
A few months ago I did a super short story with Hahli giving the Crystals from MNOGII to a group of Rahkshi made by Melding Teridax, and I’ve been thinking about revisiting the idea. However, in that story I changed things around a bit, and I’m wondering if I should change them back. See, it’s long been accepted that Melding Rahkshi would replace the regular Fear, Poison, and etc with the Principles that the Crystals represent. The thing is, not all of those Principles and “enemies” are from
Asterisk Holder: Hayreddin Barbosa Origin: Final Fantasy III (called Viking) Was It In Bravely Default?: Yes Overview: Pirates are axe-wielding powerhouses whose special abilities let them deal physical damage while simultaneously debuffing the target, making them great for any team. They also have powerful moves like Double Damage, Torrent, and Amped Strike, along with several abilities for raising their physical strength under certain conditions. A Pirate never stops swinging until
Twitch Plays Pokemon sure is strange, but it's still interesting in its own way. So...that got me thinking about how I wanted to mythologize my own Pokemon experience, and...this happened. Also here's a Luxray I drew five years ago. Gotta catch em all.
