    @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.

    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.
  9. Argaraffe
    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?
  15. Argaraffe
    @ 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?
  16. Argaraffe
    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.

    I can RNG shininess and nature on DPPt pretty easily, but that's about it. All the other forms require hitting a seed at a specific time (which I'm not good at) or a DS / DS Lite (Got rid of my old DS Lite for a 3DS). Haven't RNG'd in a while though.
  18. Argaraffe
    Probably going to Nuzlocke Soul Silver or Diamond since I sold all my GBA games. Just wondering, what's the rule regarding Pokewalker pokemon on HGSS nuzlockes?Also, am I the only one that's disappointed by how the Battle Subway isn't expanded in BW2? I was really hoping for a Triples Train, Rotation Train, and a Triples Battle Hall to try out some strategies. Oh well, there's always the inevitable Hoenn remakes.
  19. Argaraffe
    Decided to try Random Matchup again, this time with Rotation, which I find much more fun and suspenseful than Singles. Including disconnects, my record is 11-2, with one loss due to incredible hax and the other to a Dragonite / Salamence / Hydreigon / Garchomp team. Also, how do you get stars to show up next to your name / card thing?
  20. Argaraffe
    @ JC: Thanks, I'll probably run Rock Polish as well as Swords Dance on my Landorus since that's more reliable.Also, forgot to mention that I don't recommend Random Matchup. Spent so much time breeding and EV training pokemon, but right before I would win my opponent would usually ragequit. Quite annoying, but I might give it a shot again if it has changed.
  21. Argaraffe
    I've been working on a Super Doubles Team after my Durant team bit the dust due to another misclick (watching tv again, accidentally used Sub instead of Protect on Smeargle and a Tornadus outsped and 1HKO'd both it and Salamence with Focus Blast and Hurricane). The new move tutors are interesting, especially Role Play. My plan is to build a team around Role Play Landorus, who copies the Pure Power ability from Medicham or something and then destroys the opposing team with EQ and Rock Slide. Medicham could even use Helping Hand to make Landorus hit even harder. I just need a good EV spread for the Landorus so that it could have plenty of power and still be able to survive random Ice Beams. Thoughts?As for Random Matchup, rain teams do quite well. You just need pokemon that can stop other weathers and you're free to sweep with Kingdra or Tornadus or something.

    Found a random Shiny Piloswine right after I temporarily suspended my Masuda Method quest. Not the best shiny, but not the worst either I suppose. Useless nature, useless IVs, and useless IVs, but a shiny nonetheless.
  23. Argaraffe
    Well, my Durant / Smeargle / Salamence team finally lost after a nice round streak of 75, due to something along the lines of a misclick. I was carelessly watching tv while playing and pressed the wrong button which led to my demise. It was against a Veteran with Articuno / Terrakion / something else. This annoyed me because I've destroyed these pokemon time and time again.The battle went like this: I sent out Durant, he sent out Articuno, blah blah Entrainment. Next turn we both loafed. Then I must've accidentally switched in Smeargle, who ate an Ice Gem Blizzard for the KO. Bewildered, I send in Durant, who barely missed the 1HKO on Articuno with Rock Slide and 2HKO'd instead. The veteran sent out Terrakion, who easily took a Rock Slide and then KO'd with Close Combat. I switch in Salamence, who is 1HKO'd by Stone Edge. That's game.If I wasn't watching tv then the battle would've been a piece of cake and might have even reached 100 wins. And maybe if I told Durant to use Iron Head instead of Rock Slide I could've won too. I'm coming back with a vengeance though, and won't stop until I reach 100. So, just wondering, how does this stack up to everyone elses records?
  24. Argaraffe
    I'm not really preparing yet (I probably should though) but I made it my personal goal to complete the national dex due to all the cool stuff you get. I can't wait for that item that boosts your chance of getting a shiny. I'm tired of breeding thousands of eggs with foreign parents with no results. That should help a little, and I need any help I can get.
  25. Argaraffe
    Yeah, I didn't really use Spore that much except for some rare instances, and also in case Durant somehow failed its job. And Leftovers was to not only stall Poison damage from Toxic Spikes but also to nullify Hail / Sandstorm. But replacing Spore with Ingrain would solve my phazing problem and also give me recovery so I can drop Leftovers for Mental Herb, even though Taunt isn't really a problem with Protect. I'll use these changes after I finish this set of seven, thanks.
