I owe Pokemon far more of my existence than most, but yes, Digimon had the far superior anime. That said, after attempting to rewatch both series recently, I found Pokemon more immediately palatable. As much as I love the 4Kids dub and it's pun-laden dialogue, Digimon had a rough first few episodes in retrospect.

Well, at least we'll have Digimon Adventure Tri.

Only the coolest of men like Sailor Moon anyway. And Card Captor Sakura. Screw Dragon Ball Z.

Seriously though, SM and CCS were the best. And Zoids. Zoids was brilliant.

Hooray for Brooklyn Nine-Nine at least getting an ensemble nomination!

Also, it's a crime that Matthew Rhys isn't on the Best Actor list for The Americans.

I may be in the minority, but using my Pokéflute to wake up your Snorlax sounds like...really, really terrible sex talk.

Fortunately, you eventually receive one of the Sinnoh starters in the game. So you can have your Piplup. And Oshawott. And the Johto starters too (Cyndaquil is cuteness overload, while Totodile is cool). :)

Oh yes; I've caught all of the Pokemon available, but I'm looking for a really good Ralts or Seedot with high IVs. Meanwhile, my current team is becoming rather well-trained.

Also, thank you Arceus for gifting me a Poochyena with Ice Fang. It's great.

Colour and Legendary are the two primary factors in selecting my version. That, and a feeling I get when I look at the covers (yes, I'm suggesting there's a spiritual connection between myself and Pokemon covers...perhaps I ought to stop playing...).

Sapphire was my original version, so I've gone with OR. Kyogre and

Platinum and DP were my least favourite games in the entire Pokemon series; they are depressingly dreary and dull.

HGSS are brilliant in every regard aside from the lack of different camera angles and battle animation (though this is because they are older). The colour palette is fantastic, there are a lot of fun

As someone who prefers handheld gaming for various reasons, I'd prefer the series to remain portable, as it suits the gameplay better in my opinion. If they did something similar to Smash though, that would be cool. That would be really cool.

Oh the irony...Could you just say that you're experimenting and learning from the experience of playing a game with some of the best core mechanics of all time? :P

Seriously though, good luck with exams!

Hold on, for variously reasons Smash is my favourite and one of the few fighting games I play, but Injustice was a pretty solid game and a hell of a lot of fun. Both Smash and Injustice are games that allow you to have mindless fun, little skill, and not punish you relentlessly so much so that you want to stop

Honestly, in terms of keeping up with the latest game and software, you could easily just move on to AlphaSapphire, particularly if you're looking to try and enhance your Pokemon's stats (there's a whole deeper level of gameplay there), but it's a bit bare-bones compared to last year's release, XY, which has added

Honestly, ORAS is probably not going to change your feelings towards Pokemon, particularly as, being a remake, the design of Hoenn is less aesthetically extravagant than Kalos. Also they have removed customisation completely. That said, as someone who tired of XY after a while, and did not care much for RS when it

Perhaps you are right: Pokemon may not be for you then. And that's fine; I hope you find your alternative. :)

The frequent encounter rates were always more annoying in the past than the actual Pokemon, but this has been changed, particularly in the latest game. I would be interested to know which was your most recent

It's a new feature introduced in ORAS that gives details about the Pokemon you are about to engage in combat and shows you how good some of their key stats are.

They've effectively allowed you to do this using the DexNav in ORAS. Pokemon's mechanics have changed over the year incrementally (much like evolution) , but the core concepts were so strong to begin with that it doesn't need significant altering. The surprise of not knowing which Pokemon you will encounter in the

I've apparently spent nine hours dossing around Route 101 to Petalburg Woods using the DexNav. It's rather addictive.

The synergy of your username and comment is so very beautiful. Kudos. :)
