I'm just waiting for what possible religious justification they're going to come up with for the past 9 hours.

Zapdos is the Anti Jesus, Helix has punished us for associating with it. Praise Helix, Bird Jesus be thy prophet.

So is there any reason why we ditched our Psychic type for a water type that's already weaker than Lapras?

Because memes.

I am really excited about that. I hope it's G/S, those were always my favorites.

Tuned in *just* as the battle started, excellent timing. So glad that Helix bit it.

Sorry,I wasn't quite sure how to describe it. When you open up the Pokedex menu it shows the fold along vertically. Such as the whole list of pokemon are on the left while the options (cry, data, etc) are on the right. When you select a pokemon it shows the binder coils/folds (similar to the designs in the manual that came with the game) going horizontal whereas the picture of the pokemomn and basic information is on the top while the description is on the bottom.

So taking that into account that it is a book/diary looking thing in Gen1 games (hitech device everywhere else) it is a weird book that folds left to right duotang style that has folds upon folds for each pokemon (unless each pokemon was a card then I suppose it could be a very simplified accordion style binder-book thing



Best sort of illustration I could think of.

You seem to think the squares are like the spiral binds of a notebook rather than a graphical conceit. Can I ask where this idea comes from?

Could be mis-remembering a faux leather strap book. That or I've been watching a steam off and on of 40k people grinding. Since playing the game the thought never occurred to me before, but now I can't unsee it.

That's the manual cover, which is called the Trainer's Guide, in which there is no actual depiction of a Pokedex.

We caught a Fearow named "llluuu(::" exact number of Ls and Us up for debate. The parenthesis may also be the other way around.

"Bird Lulucifer" seems to be popular in chat.

edit: they are going nuts trying to get Lulu out of the PC.

The look that Spearow gives us is the perfect commentary on our performance to date.

So in order to progress, we have to earn enough money with a severely underlevelled team to buy a pokeball, actually buy the pokeball, use the pokeball to catch a pokemon that can learn cut, retrieve cut (?), learn cut, use cut, and beat a gym leader. And unless I miss my guess, we'll have to recut the tree every time we black out. Did I miss anything?

Edit: Oh, that's much better. Nevermind.

They have to fill the pokedex first. They still have a ways to go, I thought.
