Argaraffe

@Reznas: Thank you! @SarracenianKaijin: Gonna have to mostly agree with you there. I was trying to strike the right balance between a ton of stuff in colorful panels or a bunch of empty space. But I admit I went a bit overboard with the leaves, especially in the beginning (because the city was initially going to be 'Autumnopolis'). When I'm not as rushed I'll be sure to make more panels so that the text will be more spread out and erase some of the leaves (the brush I use forces out a ton at one time). Thanks for your advice.

Comics Entry! Member Name: Argaraffe Entry Title: Opolis Invaded Entry Thumbnail: Link

Hey, its Argaraffe, and I'm back again. To enter into the Titans & Monsters: Attack on BZ-Koro contest, of course. This is based partially on my unfinished entry to Comic Contest 2 due to my procrastination because it sort of fit and I didn't have time to come up with an entirely new story. I haven't active on BZP recently, but I've still checked BZP every few weeks, and I am happy to see it is still going strong. Unfortunately I found out about this contest several days late, so this is not quite my best work. I would've like to improve the special effects and extend it so it flows better, but that's just how the cookie crumbles. But I am still pleased with it and happy to enter it into the contest. If these is well received, I might make a new action series comic book style starring Mr. Magnanimous to fully display what I can do. ANYWAY, without further ado, my entry. Opolis Invaded -Argaraffe

While I don't play pokemon anymore, making Pokemon sets would be a great move for Lego. You have my vote.

Finally finished the roster aside from two more 3rd party characters. Speak up now if you have any objections to the character list, otherwise, I'll work on the movesets.@ Driken: While Galacta Knight would be pretty cool, if there was to be another Kirby rep it would be Knuckle Joe or Bandana Dee.Almost finished with Wario and K. Rool's movesets, but if there is no interest then I won't continue this. Please post any ideas for both characters and stages if you'd like.

Thought more about Lucas, and I decided to add him in by merging Ice Climbers into one character. In addition, I cut Knuckles, Shadow, and Eggman from the roster and added Phoenix Wright, leaving two spots open for 3rd party characters. Still thinking about a Kingdom Hearts character. I got an idea for Ratchet & Clank to be in SSB4 a while ago, would anyone support that? However, I accidentally messed up a bunch of pictures and then saved, so I need a new picture for: Bowser, Bowser Jr., Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Samus, Mii, Ganondorf, Link, King Boo, R.O.B., Lucas, Ice Climbers and Phoenix Wright. That'll be my focus in the upcoming days.@ Xaldin: Me neither, but with Namco Bandai codeveloping the next game its kinda guaranteed.

IDK, I never really liked Lucas or felt he was a good choice since he was only in Mother 3. The only reason that Falco, Wolf and Leon are there really s because Star Fox is my favorite video game series of all time so I decided to include them in my list. I like Phoenix Wright, but I never felt he could be in the game or attack outside of throwing evidence, sneezing, or shooting "OBJECTION" bubbles at people. But if you can come up with a complete moveset for him then he would definitely earn a spot.

I've considered Girahim, but he's only been in one game where he wasn't even the main villain (even if that game was beyond awesome). Then again, Lucas got added into SSBB somehow and he was only in one game which was released only in Japan so if a bunch of other people support it he can replace Vaati. I'll have to give those Capcom characters a bit of thought as well. Thanks for contributing!

This is just a little project I've been working on since I retired from comic making. My goal started out simply to make a fake roster for the next Smash Bros. game with all my favorite Nintendo characters who would probably never make the cut for the actual game, but since then it's evolved into an attempt at a fake character selection screen with each character having a moveset and a bunch of pallette swaps based on actual powerups / clones from the games. I'm also working on the story for a new story mode, Assist Trophies, Items, and Pokeball Pokemon.However, none of it is completed yet and the character roster has undergone multiple changes and is certainly not finalized. The story mode is still in its rough stages and I'll need some help with character movesets. Regardless, here's what I have so far.Updates:September 2 - Completed roster aside from 2 3rd party charactersAugust 28 - got font, Ice Climbers merged into 1 character, cut Knuckles, Eggman, and Shadow, added Lucas and Phoenix WrightAugust 26 - thread startedCharacter List v2:Mario series - Mario, Peach, Bowser, Bowser Jr.Yoshi series - YoshiWario series - WarioLuigi series - Luigi, King BooDonkey Kong series - Donkey Kong, King K.

This tournament makes me want to play pokemon again, especially since I never got into competitive battling. I'd like to reserve electric, but I have a few questions. Regarding Ballom's proposition about wildcard pokemon, is a pokemon allowed if it has a Hidden Power of the type that you're using? Also, am I allowed more than one form of Rotom? Finally, are BW2 move tutor moves allowed?Also I wish the standard OU bans weren't in place so I could abuse Thundurus but I guess Zapdos will do. Still, for a more balanced tournament we should use standard rules.

Even though I haven't been around for a while I have been watching and enjoying this comics. Each one is funny, but I really enjoyed the comic when Kenny talked for the first time. Keep it up!

Decided to come back when I saw this topic. I think the reason why he keeps quitting is because he keeps getting pounded with the same criticism by hordes of people at the same time, without very many people trying to help other that by saying, "This stinks, it's only text!" That said, I will not repeat what countless people have already said.First of all, the text itself needs improvement. If you download a font such as Laffayette Comic Pro or Anime Ace then your comic will look much more professional. Also, I'd recommend looking at a tutorial for glowing text or speech bubbles with Gimp. There are tons out there. Finally, you need a kit. Xanis kit, 6 shade chimoru, or Chimoru Kal / R are some of the best on bzpower. I look forward to seeing your next comic. Don't give up, keep trying!

I just lost my streak at 126 because, once again, I was watching tv and wasn't paying attention. When will I learn?

@ JC: I considered that, but unfortunately all pokemon below level 50 are raised up to level 50, so pulling off FEAR would be much harder.@ Nara: That's a pretty sweet banner, where could I get one?

Well, it finally happened. I just got my 100th straight win in the Battle Subway, using my new Gengar / Durant / Dragonite team. Here it is, in case anyone wants to see it. Please tell me any improvements I can make so that it can reach greater heights. This has been fun, but after this streak is over then I'll probably take a break from pokemon until BW2 so that I can focus on other things.Gengar @ Focus SashAbility: LevitateEVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 SpdNature: TimidMoves: Counter / Destiny Bond / Shadow Ball / ThunderboltDurant @ Choice ScarfAbility: TruantEVs: 16 HP / 252 Atk / 240 SpeNature: JollyMoves: Entrainment / Rock Slide / X-Scissor / Iron HeadDragonite @ LeftoversAbility: MultiscaleEVs: 204 HP / 252 Atk / 52 SDefNature: AdamantMoves: Protect / Sub / Dragon Dance / Dragon ClawGengar is my latest discovery. With Shadow Ball / Counter and Destiny Bond, it can usually take out two of the opposing pokemon, sometimes one or even three depending on the circumstances. It can net me an "auto-win" when it takes out two pokemon, because I have Entrainment + Truant and Protect. So many physical attackers lead on turn one trying to get an easy kill, but it only works against them. I love Gengar, but so many things in the subway can render it useless (Flinch, Burn, Sandstorm, Hail, priority, etc). Still, its abilities to get cheap kills are unmatched.Durant is still the same monster it always has been. Thanks to its speedy Entrainment, Dragonite can set up and sweep. Unless there's weather or something, Dragonite usually has three 'lives' by the time it has set up, the Substitute, Multiscale, and Dragonite itself. Dragonite is truly amazing thanks to Multiscale. It really wants Roost but I don't have room for it on the moveset.
