Woohoo, PAX South is on there! I’mma get to play the Switch!

Todd’s playable? Neat! I assume Louie is too, right? What about Prince Pete?

Each Cid is a distinctly different character, though. Always a different appearance and personality, though usually similar interests. Gogo, on the other hand, is identical in every aspect.

I forgot about that part! So yeah, definitely the same Gogo in both games.

The biggest wrench in Gogo theories, especially ones that depend on Gogo being another character in the game, is that Gogo is also in Final Fantasy V as the one who teaches the party the Mime class. Same flamboyant outfit, same skillset, same lack of external context. This suggests that Gogo either was sucked into a…

I’m really curious about how Tyrogue will be handled, given that Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan appear to still have their own candies.

I’m going to start breeding my personal Toxapex this weekend. I’ll try to remember to shoot you an email once I’ve gotten some high-quality rejects.

Yeah, and getting one with the hidden ability (Regenerator) is low odds on top of that. I was in a single battle that lasted at least an hour trying to get mine.

Personally, I plan on breeding & sending out a bunch of Regenerator Mareanie on Christmas- it takes forever to chain for one, so hopefully this will save someone a lot of time and frustration.

For claiming that he’s only going to talk about the game-universe Team Rocket and not the anime Team Rocket, he sure spends a lot of time talking about the anime.

So what I’m getting from this is that II, III, and V are perfect and require no patches. Got it.

I second the motion!

I don’t think you’re remembering correctly at all. Rocket never does anything other than hostile takeovers, their goal is pretty much making money and seizing power.

Notice how much he beats himself up whenever you beat him? “Stupid, stupid Guzma!” he says to himself.

Once you get all the Gym Leader phone numbers, grinding in HGSS becomes way easier. Still not as good as some other games, but not as bad as the original GSC were.

On one hand, there are certain logistic issues with this- Pokémon of unusual size (*cough*Wailord*cough*) have to be scaled in order to reasonably follow the player, many water Pokémon just have to float through the air (which they also do in battle, but it seems more jarring on the world map), no one really cares…

Dangit Ron Paul?

But nobody plays Slappers Only without also playing License to Kill!

This is going to end badly, isn’t it?

Hopefully! I could see it working for any of the Sci-Fi franchises (Star Fox/Metroid/F-Zero), possibly Kid Icarus as well, but those are all currently Nintendo’s second-tier franchises so they probably won’t make the big ride for Nintendo’s section one of those. Assuming it’s not a Smash Bros.-esque mashup ride (which…

Yeah, I remember in high school going to Universal and the Spider-Man ride was pretty much the only one of its kind. Then I went last year and realized they turned it into a formula. Which is unfortunate, but sadly not too surprising given Spider-Man’s success. Hopefully Nintendo will inject some imagination into the…
