    What About... A D&D RPG

    By JiMing,

    So in Portalfig's blog, a few of us noted how many of us had so many profiles made. After thinking of what to do, a few of us (myself included) wondered if we could have an RPG. So I ask, why not? Of course, I won't be the one to do it, because I don't have the skill necessary. But who knows?
     
    Also, I retook the test again. I only got better stats. Here they are.
     
    Ability Scores:
    Strength- 12
    Dexterity- 11
    Constitution- 11
    Intelligence- 14
    Wisdom- 14
    Charisma- 13
     
    EDIT: Bumped so this doesn't drop off the face of the blogs too soon.

    I suck at videogames

    By JiMing,

    So today, me and a fellow member going by the name Ghabulous Ghoti played an online Brawl match. Wow, I got my butt kicked so badly it wasn't even funny. (Okay, maybe it was)
     
    That guy left no chance for me to retaliate, and I exposed myself pretty much all the time, so time and time again, I would go blasting off into the distance. Perhaps it was my choice of characters, as I played mid-tier characters Sonic and Toon Link, but he managed to pummel me with Captain Falcon (well, he was Fabulous Falcon, so maybe his sheer awesome alone did me in).
     
    I guess I have no one to blame but myself, a majority of the time I've played Brawl was the Subspace Emissary, trying to unlock every character, and only recently did I try and improve my skills in a normal Brawl. If anyone wants to Brawl with this noob, my friend code is 4943-6690-9221. (Just expect a lot of lag)

    I'm not gonna claim I'm not biased, because I totally am. I loved Avatar: The Last Airbender when I was younger, and I still think it's one of the greatest cartoons-no, TV shows to ever exist. From what I've seen, Legend of Korra is also amazing, but the original will always hold a more special place in my heart.
     
    Toph was one of my favorite characters from the show, even if she didn't get as much character development as the others. The fact she still kicked major butt despite being blind, and how awesomely sassy she is makes me like her just as much as I do Sokka and his hilarity, really. And yeah, her Earthbending is really, really frigging impressive. There's one thing though.
     
    Shonen characters can sometimes be kiiiiiiiiiiiiiinda overpowered.... As I believe is the case for Naruto characters.
     
    And from the things I've read so far, Gaara looks like a beast (literally since he has that Shukaku demonthing in his belly)..... This kind of displeases me... No, it displeases me a lot, because I want Toph to win reaaaaaaaaaaaaally badly, but I'm not sure if she can anymore.......
     
    Then again, there's this quote from Ben Singer on his Twitter regarding this battle.....
     
    Does this mean I can get my hopes up? Please tell me it does.....

    Is my blog invisible?

    By JiMing,

    I've literally had nobody post on anything on my blog for several entries in a row, so I'm freaking out thinking my blog is invisible or that there are bad opinions of me running through the community. I know I'm overreacting, but I CAN'T HELP IT. I'm paranoid like that.
     
    Could people at least post saying "I'm here", so I know I'm not going mad? Thanks. If people have some tips on how to be more visible in the blog spectrum, that would be appreciated as well.

    School Lockdowns

    By JiMing,

    I am currently in one.
     
    There was a school shooting threat in a nearby school, and they've been in lockdown since the beginning of today. Luckily I'm in a highly safe classroom, what with being upstairs and interior. I think this is more cautionary than anything, but one can never be too careful.
     
    Wish me luck.

    3DS Stuff?

    By JiMing,

    So I've got some money to spend on stuff, and I wanted to spend it on something for the 3DS. I'm interested in getting an eShop card to spend on games(particularly from the Virtual Console), but I really want to get Mario and Luigi: Dream Team. So what do you guys think I should do?
     
    P.S. I will not get New Leaf, so please don't say "GET NEW LEAF!1111one" *sets up barricade*
     
    P.S.S. Next entry will be a Fictional Character Face-Off, so feel free to suggest stuff matches for that.

    Kirby vs. MegaMan

    By JiMing,

    So I was bored today, and after spending some time on the internet, started thinking of the outcomes if Kirby and MegaMan fought each other.
     
    I mean, both can copy abilities, but MegaMan is limited to the abilities of Robot Masters he defeats. Kirby has a much wider range of powers at his disposal at any other time, even if MegaMan keeps every ability he obtains.
     
    MegaMan however, is far less vulnerable than Kirby in their normal states. MegaMan has constant access to the Mega Buster, while Kirby can pretty much only inhale enemies or exhale air. Kirby is far more durable however, because he's practically like bubblegum, so he can withstand a great variety of attacks. Spikes are instant kill for MegaMan.
     
    There's probably a lot more information I overlooked, but this was just a random idea I thought up of. Who do you guys think would be the victor?

    Smash Thoughts!

    By JiMing,

    Yes, I know this was yesterday. WHO CARES, I HAVE THOUGHTS TOO! Now, I'm too lazy to organize my thoughts in paragraphs and whatnot, so here are bullet points for each comment I have to make, in order to the things were revealed in Smash Direct.

    The stages being split could possibly lead to disappointment for some (especially me since I don't plan on buying a Wii U anytime soon), but I think it could also mean some games get represented that normally wouldn't. Like Find Mii. =P
    Kid Icarus is being represented on the 3DS AND Wii U?! YES.
    Hard rock and orchestral Skyward Sword theme is also YES.
    So the Yellow Devil acts like a miniboss of sorts? And there'll be more stages like that (coughcoughRIDLEY)? That could be very interesting, but the competetive scene will probably go NO I WANNA FIGHT DA PLAYERS! BANNED
    Online play split between the casuals and the competitive scene? I figured something like this would be implemented, but I wasn't sure how... Now that I do know, I'd say it's a great idea! Hopefully it doesn't lag nearly as much as Brawl did though. =P
    Final Destination versions of almost all stages? YES. Tourney matches will probably be having a lot more variety later on!
    Global Smash Power? Eh... Not a bad idea, but I don't particularly like it either. Matchmaking based on skill is smart though.
    New items look fun, especially the Rocket Belt, which looks amazing.
    Saki and Lyn are Assist Trophies? Welp, there goes two potential female candidates out of the picture....
    Skull Kid, Midna, Dark Samus, and Elec Man? YES. Also Pong. =P
    Not much to say on the Pokemon, other than Arceus is now summonable. Yeah.... =P
    I like the splitting up of characters who changed mid-match. It gives another move to their moveset and allows you to concentrate on how to use one fighter, instead of two or three. I hated playing as the Pokemon Trainer for that reason. =P
    Zero Suit Samus with jet boots? That's cool and all, but has any other Metroid game before featured this? I don't think so....
    Before I say anything else, Zelda's hair clipping THROUGH HER BODY is hilarious. =P Even though I never really played as her in Brawl, the Phantom move seems like a nice addition! It also references the Spirit Tracks iteration. Though that means no Toon Zelda/Sheik I guess.
    I've always preferred using Sheik over Zelda (though she's still not one of my mains). Her new moves look pretty cool, and I'm glad to see Sheik is back!
    Kirby's tweaked Hammer move looks like it should add a whole lot of usability to it, and the move still seems very powerful. And the Ultra Sword looks waaaay better than Cook Kirby ever was. Glad they changed his Final Smash.
    King Dedede now throws Gordos? Oooh... That seems evil.
    Lucario seems like even more of a monster now that it's aura moves get even stronger than they did in Brawl. Though being able to self-destruct with the new power seems to put a damper on things. And Mega Lucario is his new Final Smash? Saw it coming from a mile away. =P Though it looks much more useful than Aura Storm.
    Olimar was apparently a beast in the competitive scene, so it'll be interesting to see how these changes affect him. Only being able to have three Pikmin at a time seems like it'll make management a whole lot easier, especially since they come out in a set order. Winged Pikmin also looks like a much better recovery move than Pikmin Chain.
    For Pit, I never really used the gliding much, so meh. His recovery move seems a lot easier to use now though, and I like how they're giving him more offensive power than he did before. And his new Final Smash is the Three Sacred Treasures? YES. I hated Palutena's Army in Brawl. Glad they're replacing some of the less useful Final Smashes!
    Woah, this wasn't really focused on, but Sonic looks a whole lot more fun to use now, just look at that awesome combo he pulled off! As he was my main in Brawl (yes people like Sonic still, get over it), I am very happy.
    I like Yoshi's new design, though I will probably not play as him very often. His double jump as his recovery made it really awkward for me to use him in Brawl...
    Hah, that troll with Pseudo-Palutena. Well played, Sakurai. =P
    Rosalina looks like an interesting character with the fact that she and the Luma can fight separately. It seems like it'll open up lots of combo opportunities, which is always exciting. Also, Gravitational Pull seems eeeviiiiiil.
    Little Mac also looks like a unique character. His attacks look fast, powerful, and seem to give him super armor often. Which also looks eeevvviiiiil. =P However, his weakness in the air and horrendous recovery seem like they should even out. In any case, I'm looking forward to trying him out! Oh, and the wireframe costume looks unique and will probably please the old school fans.
    Words cannot describe how eeevvviiiiiil the Villager's Pocket move seems. =P However, Timber looks exceedingly slow and will probably be not that great in direct combat. =P I see lots of usability in every move of his other than that.
    Mega Man, like he did when the game was first announced, looks like a very unique, fun character that I really want to play as! A lot of my guesses on what his moveset would be seem to be correct, and that makes me happy. And his Final Smash? SO MUCH YES.
    Wii Fit Trainer seems as silly as ever. =P Sun Salutation seems like an out of place move, but then again, yoga can probably only get so far with making a moveset. =P Oh yeah, apparently there's a male variant too. Meh, it looks like just a cosmetic difference.
    Custom move sets? Oh wow, that's what they meant by customization... It looks amazing, and I want to know more now ugh
    So I guess Smash Run will be the stand-in for the Subspace Emissary for the 3DS version? Looks like a fun change of pace. Though I wonder what the Wii U ersion will have...
    Charizard returns! Also saw that coming from a mile away, along with the Mega Evolution. =P Greninja, though, I did not. I'm still hyped because I like his design the best out of all the Kalos starter's final evolutions, and he looks like a really fun character to use! I have a feeling I'd use him more than Charizard actually. =P

    In a nutshell, the Direct was SO MUCH WIN and hype. Summer seems so far away now.... Dang. Hopefully they reveal more information before then!

    So remember this? Of course you don't. Well the gist of this whole thing is that I pit two fictional characters against each other for you wonderful people in the blogosphere to debate who the victor is going to be. Normally, I'd write up a quick narrative on how the battle started, but I cannot figure out how to do so for this match, so we're going to skip to the rules.
    For simplicity, the Link discussed is the Adult Link from Ocarina of Time. Both characters have access to all weapons and abilities from their respective games, though they cannot have any outside assistance (this means no partners or fairies). The battle goes on until one of them is either dead or unable to continue battling. And no, their good natures don't affect them and make them into good buddies at the end. Think Death Battle rules.
     
    Got it? Okay... GO!
     
    EDIT: You may now interpret which Link you would want to use. But remember, any Link is at their fullest potential when fighting.
  14. JiMing
    So I got a Wii U over Black Friday... The Smash Splat Bundle, to be specific. It came with Smash Wii U and Splatoon downloaded to the system. Oh boy, Splatoon...
     
    I kinda chose a girl Inkling cause I find the boy to be sort of doofy-looking. The girl Inkling's actually pretty cute though! It helps that I am a MASTER AT FASHION. YOU WANT PROOF, PUNK??!
     
    PROOF 1
     
    PROOF 2
     
    Well I'm actually kinda mediocre with the freshness of my fashion, but I think it's cute so eh. xP Oh, those two pics actually do show off my favorite weapons in the game thus far: the Slosher Deco and N-ZAP '89. I like being able to toss ink over cover with Sloshers in generala, and I prefer the Splash Wall of the Deco to the Burst Bombs of the regular, which I have always found to be kinda superfluous. Meanwhile, I like the speed value on the N-Zap '89 and the Inkstrike is one of my favorite Specials to make use of thus far. I do know that I should probably start using more than those two only, but they're what I'm best with, and if anyone who plays the game can reccomend me their picks, I'll go consider getting those!
     
    But yeah! Splatoon came free with my Wii U and it's kinda hooked me. Yeah I know I'm late to the party to be gushing, but heck, I've just been playing whenever I can, and... Getting 0-2 on the Splatfests. Maybe next time I'll win...?
     
    (also yes I'm aware I have really bad skills rolled on my gear, I may or may not be fixing that later, but for now I'm just trying to play to have a good time and all that)
  15. JiMing
    Jim made it out of Mauville, only for it to turn out the HM Rock Smash was necessary to pass through. He then returned to the Pokemon Center and withdrew King Duuuh.., who was unhappy at being required to perform actual work, but happy he would be returned to the PC immediately afterwards. after traversing through the terrain, Jim proceeded to catch even more Pokemon.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Pikablu the Marill
    The Marill line always has that cheery smile on their face, which must mean they're all happy, all the time, right? Not always. Pikablu is actually rather lonely most of the time, and doesn't know how to make friends. Being in the PC gives him hope that he'll learn how to socialize.
    Pokemon Acquired!-Stonebrain the Geodude
    His name is rather demeaning, but this Geodude is so lax that he never goes out of his way to complain about it. This is despite being the exact opposite of dumb, as can be seen in his alertness to sounds.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Hothead the Numel
    At first, the nickname for Hothead seems unfitting, as he's yet another jolly friend to everyone. However, the friendliness is offset by a quick temper. Exercise caution if you want to be his friend.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Carrie-tay the Machop
    Carrie-tay is very lax. As in, so relaxed that she never actually bothers to train and hone her strength, preferring to use up that time in taking naps at every opportunity. It's a good thing she's in the PC where lazing around all day is acceptable, then!
     
    At a halfway point to the next town, Jim ran into May along the way. A quick discussion about the size of Mt. Chimney and free healing of his team, the trainer was once more on his merry way. And more Pokemon catching was to be had.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Bruple the Koffing
    Once more, judging Bruple for his dopey expression is not the way to go. His approach to situations is highly careful and analytical. Adding on to that, he is stubborn in finding the right solution, and has indominable will in achieving what he wants.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Maggie the Slugma
    Maggie makes a great friend if you can get past the lava body. She's rather modest about herself and holds a strong will. Overall a reliable friend. The Slugma also befriended Maddie due to their similar names.
     
    The route was long. Absurdly long. Luckily, another run in into May meant another team healing, which was nice! But then Jim had to go through an area completely covered in volcanic ash... Which wasn't as nice. Oh well, more Pokemon were caught.... Again.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Spotty the Spinda
    An initial impression of Spotty is usually, well.... Spotty. He never says anything due to an overall quiet nature, and constantly stumbling around makes it hard to read body language. Despite the movement impediment, Spotty is highly curious about nearly everything around him.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Gaiung the Sandshrew
    Gaiung is jolly. Consequently he's taken up the role others have as everyone's best friend and confidant. That is, when he's not napping along with Carrie-tay. His schedule sadly leaves only a small amount of time to actually socialize with others.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Talos the Skarmory
    With such an imposing name and stature, surely Talos must be-okay, I think you get the point. In short, sassy and often acts like a clown. This means he's ended up the life of the party around those in the PC environment.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Aolani the Swablu
    Joy to the PC! Aolani is jolly. Of course, this makes sense due to her species and their general attitude. Being a small cloud songbird doesn't stop her from having a sturdy body capable of withstanding hits.
     
    After the long and arduous trail, Jim finally made it to Fallarbor Town. A quick trip to the Pokemon Center resulted in the team being healed and Stormageddon being put back on the team. Shortly after exiting, May rushed up to the trainer in a panic. Apparently the Professor Cozmo she mentioned had disappeared! The culprits? None other than Team Magma themselves... Hearing that made Jim clench his fist. He knew they were up to no good from the last time they meant.... So he jumped at May's suggestion to track them down at Meteor Falls. Of course, he was interrupted by trainers and wild Pokemon along the way, so he wasn't as quick as he'd have liked to be....
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Snikt the Zangoose
    Sharp claws unfortunately make befriending others hard for the jolly Zangoose. Then again, neither does having a vain attitude and considering oneself the best there is. What a paradox.
    Pokemon Acquired!-Presly the Volbeat
    Presly has opinions. And he's adamant about keeping them. He's highly persistent in maintaining his... Persistence. Generally disliked by the PC-denizens.
     
    While on the way, Stormageddon evolved into a Pelipper. This meant she was now no longer base stage, and up to snuff with the rest of the team. At that moment, her haughty attitude and massive ego returned... Unfortunately.
     
    Just before the entrance of Meteor Falls, Jade too, began to evolve. And without the presence of a Dawn Stone, it could have only meant one thing..... The soon-to-be Gardevoir looked back at his trainer, who simply nodded and let the evolution happen. Afterwards stood the now fully evolved Jade, who was so ecstatic he drew Jim in for a crushing embrace. Getting the air squeezed from his lungs wasn't particularly present, but the only protest he made was that they had yet to meet up with May as they had promised. Only then did the new Gardevoir relent.
     
    Once inside Meteor Falls itself, Jim stumbled onto May just about to confront a Magma Grunt and what looked to be an admin of theirs accosting Professor Cozmo for his meteorite. Turns out said admin was named Tabitha, and he laughed at the thought of two children disrupting their plans. But after trouncing countless Magma Grunts and having May at his side, Jim felt rather confident going into the double battle. And surely enough, Jade with her newfound evolution tore through the Pokemon with little effort, leaving a very confused grunt and admin.
     
    The victory was quickly cut short with the appearance of another organization introducing themselves as Team Aqua showed up. This prompted Tabitha and the grunt to quickly flee after snatching away the meteorite. As it turned out, Magma and Aqua were rivals with each other, with conflicting goals. While Magma wished to expand the landmass to further human development, Aqua wished to expand the seas to provide conditions more conducive to Pokemon well-being. Their Leader, Archie said much himself, and warned Jim to never interfere with his plans.
     
    With that chilling sequence out of the way, Professor Cozmo was returned to his lab, safe and sound-though without the meteorite. May wanted to check out Mauville's Gym, which Jim had already beaten. Nevertheless, he took her up on her offer to head back there, for the reason of hoping to check out Mt. Chimney, apparently where Magma and Aqua had congregated. Probably. Anyways, a quick healing of the team and Jim was off to Mt. Chimney.
     
    Turns out Jim was already too late, as Magma and Aqua were currently duking it out. Running through the chaos brought the young trainer face to face with Tabitha, who was still sore over his loss back at Meteor Falls. One childish tantrum on Tabitha's part later, yet another battle and victory ensued. There seems to be a pattern here....
     
    Then again, trouncing the grunts and admins are one thing. Taking on the leader? A bit more frightening. Jim found himself up against Maxie, whom he had encountered back in Slateport. The Magma Leader made it perfectly clear he would show no mercy, yet the trainer and his team refused to back down. Once more though, the odds were heavily skewed in his favor, and the leader of a criminal organization with grand ambitions suffered defeat at the hands of a teenage, relatively inexperienced trainer. Mightyena and Golbat were nothing Jade couldn't take on, and even the trump card Camerupt fell relatively easily to Stormageddon. This obviously struck a nerve with Maxie, who claimed that had he used Mega Evolution on his Camerupt, Jim would have fallen easily. Before being capable of backing up his claims though, a certain call was made and Team Magma departed, Aqua quick on their heels.
     
    Dealing with one criminal team was bad enough... But two? That was worse. Sighing, the trainer went down Mt. Chimney as quick as possible, heading for the next Gym at Lavaridge....
     
    (I will say this. Having limited access to a laptop because your parents keep shoving you off makes finishing things hard. So that explains this MASSIVE delay, and daily updates will no longer be a thing I think. Sorry!)
  18. JiMing
    (author note, I forgot to do some profiles last post, so I'll add them to the current list of Pokemon Acquired)
     
    In no time at all, Jim was already at Dewford. The young boy thanked Mr. Briney as both of them wished each other good luck. First things first, Jim took time to explore the small town, talking to everyone in it. One child in particular rambled about how Potion Festivals were the hip and 'in' thing, asking the trainer in the making if they were hip at his hometown too. Jim answered no, and when questioned what was the in thing, shrugged and suggested Tiny Mushroom-dexes out of nowhere. Suddenly the boy began to ramble about how he knew about those all along, despite Jim having made it up on the spot. Entering the house next to him provided an even stranger situation, where everyone obsessed over Tiny Mushroom-dexes, despite Jim having only coming up with the term a few seconds back.
     
    .....And so he chose to ignore the rather... Strange inhabitants of Dewford, and headed to Route 106 to train. There he encountered several more Pokemon to catch, from fishing outside to exploring Granite Cave.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Buffshroom the Shroomish
    Lacking arms doesn't mean Buffshroom isn't a tough little Pokemon! Such strength can be be attributed to his hardy nature, as he always perseveres and never lets up, whether battling or running around. Being inside the PC gives him both plenty of space to run around in, and a wide variety of Pokemon to spar with. Buffshroom couldn't be any more ecstatic!
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Maddie the Taillow
    Maddie doesn't think things through most of the time, and is in fact rather hasty. Another element for her lack of foresight is her pride in her power, believing she can take on anything that gets in the way. Despite both these attributes, the Taillow is actually a fairly pleasant Pokemon to be around, and has in fact befriended Major.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Bark the Nincada
    Bark is a very relaxed Pokemon. Almost nothing bothers her and she's yet to lose her temper. Even her mischievous isn't acted upon, as she simply laughs if an amusing situation happens to someone around her. For that reason, it's hard for Pokemon to hate her, yet they aren't entirely able to bring themselves to like her either.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Batmon the Zubat
    No matter his efforts, Batmon is not a very good vigilante. Being as mild as he is makes it hard to be threatening in any capacity. Despite this, his will to win is strong, and he doesn't take losses lightly. Perhaps with time, Batmon will become more effective at his self-chosen occupation, but that has yet to be seen.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Sabrina the Abra
    Sabrina has an overall quirky feel. She can often be heard muttering strange things, about dolls or childhood or other things. The other Pokemon are also frightened at her quick temper, as asking about the quirks usually ends badly. For now, Sabrina is one Pokemon that is usually ignored.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Bumomomo the Makuhita
    Bumomomo! Bumomomo! This Makuhita shouts his name often while training, making it hard to forget what he's called. Said training isn't for naught, as it helps him perform better when rashly throwing himself into battle. In stark contrast to Bumomomo's incredible girth, running is by far his preferred exercise.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Claus IV the Minun
    Claus is jolly and has a sunny outlook at life. She loves making friends and having fun. When the going gets tough, Claus has the perseverance to push through such difficult situations. Anyone who befriends her gains a loyal, reliable ally.
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-LightningDog the Elektrike
    In contrast wirh his fellow Electric-type, LightningDog acts carefully, be it meeting new Pokemon or otherwise. This doesn't stop him and Claus from being good friends regardless, as both share an incredible tenacity for tough situations. Turns out opposites DO attract!
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Skullkraken the Magikarp
    Magikarp are seen as pathetic and worthless, but Skullkraken doesn't let this get him down. It wouldn't be right for such a jolly Pokemon to get upset over the thoughts of others, after all! And once more, another prankster enters the fray. What elaborate schemes will the PC need to endure now?!
     
    Pokemon Acquired!-Davy the Tentacool
    Jellyfish are scary. But Davy isn't, being a rather timid indivisual. This does not make him a doormat by any means, in fact, he is rather stubborn about maintaining his position and opinions. No one exemplefies quiet strengh more than Davy!
     
    After training and Bree evolving into Combusken, it was time for Jim to take on the Dewford Gym and Brawly. It took a quick blackout basement puzzle to reach the Gym Leader, and before he knew it, the young boy had engaged his second Gym Battle. He led with Jade, due to Confusion and Disarming Voice being two STAB moves strong against fighting types. Jim expected to have to switch out to Crocea Mors by the time Makuhita showed its' face, but to his delight, Jade could take on both of Brawly's Pokemon head on with nary an injury. Within four moves, the battle was over and Jim was crowned the victor, all thanks to one Ralts.
     
    Everyone in the team congratulated Jade, even Stormageddon and Gerridae stopped bickering to do so. To see initially one of the weakest members of his team come so far warmed Jim's heart and raised his spirits. Meanwhile, Jade, who had been ostracized from his own kind for his wishes now found himself celebrated amongst friends, and got a chance for his true potential to shine. What more could anyone ask for?
     
    Afterwards, Brawly told Jim to head back to Granite Cave to find Steven. Previously, the cave had been blocked off by 'mural enthusiasts', but now they were nowhere to be found. He met Steven staring at the mural in question, depicting a massive, ancient Pokemon with destrictive power. Jim shuddered, at least whatecver THAT was didn't exist anymore. Afterwards, Jim was instructed by Steven to deliver the Devon Parts to a man named Captain Stern in Slateport. With Mr. Briney being willing to ferry him over there, Jim arrived in the city in no time flat.
     
    Exploring the beach and city was a blast for Jim and his team. Even if their primary goal was to become the very best, sightseeing was always something to enjoy. Then they stumbled onto the museum, and there was a line blocking the entrance. Those making up the line made everyone wary and nervous, and for good reason
     
    They were Team Magma members.

    Pokemon Music

    By JiMing,

    So I just listened to a bunch of battle themes from Pokemon X and Y, and I... I don't know, I guess I'm disappointed? I don't know how I'd describe the feeling of liking the Trainer battle theme more than the Gym Leader or Elite Four themes. I seriously don't get how that could happen, given the excellent music from previous generations. I read a comment that sums up why I dislike the themes so much.
     

     
    That explains it a whole lot better than I could have. I heard the route and city themes were okay, but I don't know for myself. Oh well, time to play the HeartGold SoulSilver Gym Leader theme on repeat again!

    So I've made an entry entirely dedicated to having you guys suggest battles between any two fictional characters! I am interested in seeing what you guys want, but I will only take battles if I have prior knowledge of them and I consider them to be particularly interesting/popular.
     
    Also, how does one become a popular blogger? Sometimes I feel as if I'm talking to nobody.

    So after playing around in Brawl for a while, I've noticed that I like to play as Sonic, Kirby, and Pit. My friend noted I seemed to prefer characters who could easily rack up damage, yet had very few hard-hitting KO moves. That interested me upon hearing that, so I ask you guys now, what characters do you like to main in Smash Bros., and what do you think your playstyles are like?

    So uh, turns out that TV show announcement also entails a video game! And toys and whatnot, but that's not what we're here for. So why is this actually interesting to non-Sonic fans? Because of the developers for both the Wii U and 3DS versions. Big Red Button Entertainment, the Wii U developer, has Bob Rafei, Naughty Dog veteran. He was their first hired employee, and has worked on the Crash, Jak and Daxter, and even Uncharterd: Drake's Fortune. But the first two are the ones that matter, because this means he's worked on previous critically acclaimed platform games. Sanzaru Games, the developer of the 3DS version, recently released Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. So no, Sonic Team will not be mindlessly headbanging keyboards, these are industry veterans who have worked on similar projects before.
     
    The characters have also been redesigned. Truth be told, I actually like Tails's design, and Sonic and Amy's aren't bad either. But Knuckles must have been taking steroids or something. =P
     
    That's all for now, I can't really think of anything else to say, besides this could be interesting.
