Pokemon 'Diamond' - Keitai Denjuu Telefang

[bobandbill]

Let's Play Pokemon Diamond!
A Screenshot LP

Ah, good old Pokemon -wait, what?

Note: Most music files will not currently work because ripway.com sucks. To be fixed soon!



For those who do not know, there are a pair of old GBC games called 'Pokemon Diamond and Jade'. They're infamous for their talk of curry and random swearing and hilarious engrish!



Said games are really badly pirated and translated games called 'Keitai Denjuu Telefang', which was another monster-collecting+fighting game that was only ever officially released in Japan (it also got a Japanese-only sequel). But said piraters tried to pass their poorly translated works as Pokemon games, completely with box art and a different title screen! Within the game though (bar it being in English Engrish and having the odd problem with saving in cases) it was simply the Telefang game, with no Pokemon to be found inside.



'Pokemon Diamond' was the 'Power version' of Telefang, while Jade was the 'Speed version'. (I don't believe they're referring to that sort of speed, but...). Well, have a Telefang box art pic

But it's not a bad game - some tough battles, frustrating mazes, catchy music and very entertaining engrish - what's not to love? ;p

I've decided to replay this game - I actually had a game pak with this as a kid which provided me with many, many hours of confusion. Hope you enjoy it too!

Note I'll throw up tunes when they come up in the game via sound clip player windows! Press play to, well, play, and if it lags it's not my fault.

Warning - swearing is abounds in this game in some stages. But it's engrish swearing so it's all good! ;p



Part One - Down the Rabbit Hole!
Or part of the long intro sequence in which a lot of baseballs happen.

Wow, I can't believe it's not Pokemon!

We're greeted with this highly convincing title screen, which seems to suggest this strange snake thing has three of the Chaos Emeralds. (At this stage the games appears to be as much Sonic as it is Pokemon).

But this is as exciting as the title screen gets, so let's watch the intro video - maybe we can see if there's any Pokemon there.

Any Pokemon here, I wonder?

http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/4144/pokemondiamond05.png
...no, it doesn't seem so. Darn.

...what is that, anyway? Pyramid Head? The local hobo? Who knows!

http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/449/bekphonetalk.gif
Clearly what was found startles what appears to be our HERO™ though.

http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/5365/pokemondiamond09.png
Suddenly, lots of trees. Maybe it's Viridian forest, or-

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/7400/startertalk.gif
Oh is it a Pokem-no, it's a...thing. With a phone.

Something tells me we're not in Kanto. Or Kansas.

http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/953/bektalk.gif
Our HERO™ would like to tell you that today's LP is brought to you by the letter 'S', as seen on his helmet.

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/3262/pokemondiamond19.png
The 'thing' that appeared earlier is now angry. Maybe he doesn't like the letter S? Or maybe he too wonders where all the Pokemon are.

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/9605/pokemondiamond23.png
One gets a feeling a showdown is about to go down...

...only the intro video cuts out then as the two things face off. Aww. I was expecting an epic chess duel or something. :< And so much for Pokemon.

We might as well get on with the beginning part of the game!

http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8737/pokemondiamond30.png
The main menu screen. It's phonerific.

http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/5740/pokemondiamond01.png
The game allows you to set up the- no, decide time! - when you start a file, which does have a visual effect (day/night feature, so you will).

Well, at least it doesn't say 'make your time'.
http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/5740/pokemondiamond01.pnghttp://img4.imageshack.us/img4/2439/pokemondiamond02.pnghttp://img264.imageshack.us/img264/8292/pokemondiamond03.png
Look at that character walk about like a pro. Clearly he must be an important character of some sort!

Well... don't believe everything you hear, kid? Already we are informed that there's another world and we can presume the strange creatures are electric monsters.

Because, you know. They were totally packing a lot of electricity? =/

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/5234/pokemondiamond035.png
And that's why he shall stand in front of it for the time being. You show that tree who's boss!

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/7994/dodgeit.gif
Suddnly, a wild baseball attacks!

The native baseball is prompt to defend its home tree against any intruders.

http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/9605/pokemondiamond10.png
Darn right, kid.

http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/9319/pokemondiamond11.pnghttp://img696.imageshack.us/img696/12/pokemondiamond12.png
And the engrish already breaks down for the first time - fly over...what? The tree? The ball? The text boxes!?

http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/3680/pokemondiamond13.png
Meanwhile, our HERO™ is also walking about.

http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/6054/pokemondiamond14.pnghttp://img51.imageshack.us/img51/6241/pokemondiamond15.png
Yes, please do.

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/9060/pokemondiamond16.png
And another person who comes with her own theme music. They also like jumping!

http://www.upload-mp3.com/files/320943_mknir/Keitai%20Denjuu%20Telefang%20-%2037_intro.mp3

...actually, that's a lie. EVERYONE in this game likes jumping. It's like the secondary method of speech in the game.
http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/5198/pokemondiamond17.pnghttp://img703.imageshack.us/img703/7029/pokemondiamond18.png
Oh no she didn't.

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/7223/bekjump1.gif
Such an outrageous comment prompts our HERO™ to show off his jumping skills. Observe the jump of anger!

http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/3995/pokemondiamond22.png
Our HERO™ calms down to point this out to 'Miyor'. And compared to apparently magical trees, it shouldn't be that special anyways.

http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5160/pokemondiamond24.pnghttp://img708.imageshack.us/img708/985/pokemondiamond25.pnghttp://img213.imageshack.us/img213/530/pokemondiamond26.pnghttp://img87.imageshack.us/img87/148/pokemondiamond27.pnghttp://img713.imageshack.us/img713/170/pokemondiamond28.png
(Sungki being the fellow who nearly suffered death via baseball).

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/3219/pokemondiamond29.pnghttp://img228.imageshack.us/img228/8737/pokemondiamond30.pnghttp://img529.imageshack.us/img529/9919/pokemondiamond31.png
So in other words... please go walk through that tree?

http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/4493/bekjump2.gif
~If you're happy and you know it jump up high!~

http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/2297/pokemondiamond33.pnghttp://img832.imageshack.us/img832/7537/pokemondiamond34.pnghttp://img15.imageshack.us/img15/2062/pokemondiamond35.png
And here the translators display their lack of knowledge of female pronouns like 'she'. Anyways, saying such things was rather rude...or maybe it was just that she didn't pick up the ball. That must be it, seeing that baseball seems to be rather important thus far.

http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/8186/pokemondiamond39.pnghttp://img204.imageshack.us/img204/7995/pokemondiamond40.png
_He_ may be a _cute guy_ as well. Maybe our HERO™ is blind or something...

http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/8918/pokemondiamond41.pnghttp://img808.imageshack.us/img808/4097/pokemondiamond42.png
Yes, let's. Oh, boy, I haven't been this excited about seeing a ball in years! (I presume he is also either talking to himself, or his helmet).

http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/4594/pokemondiamond43.pnghttp://img72.imageshack.us/img72/7180/pokemondiamond44.png
'I hope you didn't eat the ball again, or I'll jump so much I'll mistake your gender!'

http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/9050/pokemondiamond45.pnghttp://img34.imageshack.us/img34/6116/pokemondiamond46.png
Aha! We know know the protagonist's name, and hence do not have to refer to him as the HERO™ anymore.

http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/5919/pokemondiamond47.png

'Sedge may refer to:

Any of the plants in the family Cyperaceae (http://www.pokecommunity.com/wiki/Cyperaceae)...
Any of the caddisflies (http://www.pokecommunity.com/wiki/Caddisflies) (Trichoptera), small moth-like insects with aquatic larvae...'
Yeah, I don't think that makes much sense here. But he seems pretty sure about it being sedge!
http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5868/pokemondiamond48.pnghttp://img696.imageshack.us/img696/5558/pokemondiamond49.pnghttp://img405.imageshack.us/img405/8428/pokemondiamond50.png
...yes, I suppose that's the case when you're standing next to each other?

He is possibly referring to Bek and Miyor, but it's a typical case of the translation being vague whenever possible. Especially when sedge is concerned.

http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/3855/pokemondiamond51.pnghttp://img20.imageshack.us/img20/5737/pokemondiamond52.pnghttp://img683.imageshack.us/img683/7310/pokemondiamond53.png
Baseball is so important, it's 'the baseball', not 'baseball'.

http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/4981/pokemondiamond54.pnghttp://img831.imageshack.us/img831/8305/pokemondiamond55.pnghttp://img228.imageshack.us/img228/6438/pokemondiamond56.pnghttp://img843.imageshack.us/img843/7457/pokemondiamond57.pnghttp://img813.imageshack.us/img813/1732/pokemondiamond58.png
All of Bek? I mean, all of him? If you say so... ._.

And of course not what are you talking about the baseball is the only life for Bek.

http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9896/pokemondiamond59.pnghttp://img819.imageshack.us/img819/6811/pokemondiamond60.pnghttp://img151.imageshack.us/img151/8650/pokemondiamond61.pnghttp://img571.imageshack.us/img571/3181/pokemondiamond62.pnghttp://img254.imageshack.us/img254/1512/pokemondiamond63.png
So apparently you need 'D shoot'. (D shoot...de shoot, de gun?). Without this...thing, you will NEVER HAVE ANY FRIENDS. Well, I guess it's always useful to have a friend with a gun...

http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/7218/pokemondiamond64.png
Suddenly, a phone rings. Not that you can tell, but it stops all the background music!

http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/6889/pokemondiamond65.png
Yes, I've just established that. Keep up with me, sheesh.

http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/580/pokemondiamond66.pnghttp://img408.imageshack.us/img408/448/pokemondiamond67.png
Well, is it from that [under the tree]? They go and investigate.

http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/2701/pokemondiamond68.pnghttp://img38.imageshack.us/img38/6093/pokemondiamond69.pnghttp://img153.imageshack.us/img153/3315/pokemondiamond70.pnghttp://img263.imageshack.us/img263/40/pokemondiamond71.png
They happen to find a phone, and apparently it is that 'D Shoot'. Exciting times. Meanwhile the phone continues to ring.

http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/1881/pokemondiamond72.png
Yes, I don't follow where this is going either, Bek.

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7060/pokemondiamond73.png
Yeah, something more exciting than the baseball is bound to happen sometime, so get on with it.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/3958/pokemondiamond74.png
About time he answered that phone.

http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/1148/pokemondiamond76.png
Perspective shot! It is very exciting. It has a..tree in the background and all! But whoever could the caller be?

http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/3792/earthquake.gif
Suddenly, an earthquake!

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/5051/falling.gif
Wheeeeeeee!!

Don't you just hate it when that happens?


And so concludes about half of the intro sequence! More excitement to follow, along with slowly degrading engrish and maybe, gasp, some 'electric monsters'!

[Zeffy]

Ah..I remembered playing Diamond. Oh the memories. You make me think why I stopped playing it a few years ago. n__n

The only thing I don't understand, though, is the monsters having phones. o_o

Heh, cool that I got one person to recall them wacky adventures. =p And yes, that was always a confusing aspect of the game, especially considering some of the telephone calls...

Anyways, let's get right through that intro!


Part Two - A Whole New World
Or the rest of the long intro sequence in which a magic phone happens.

So where were we?
http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/5051/falling.gif
Ah yes, plummenting to our dooms. Let's get that bit over with already.

http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5160/fallenv.gif
Sungki seems initially concerned by Bek falling directly on his head but then decides the tree stump is far more interesting.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2026_new_world.mp3
http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/8231/pokemondiamond119.pnghttp://img263.imageshack.us/img263/4167/pokemondiamond120.png
The tree stump probably isn't the one to ask, just saying.

http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/9251/pokemondiamond122.png
The tree stump's silence angers Sungki into more jumping!

http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/360/pokemondiamond126.png
Indeed it is - what a rude tree stump.

http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/1327/pokemondiamond129.pnghttp://img72.imageshack.us/img72/129/pokemondiamond130.png
Well, I guess a mere headache isn't so bad considering how long you were falling there for...

http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/7088/pokemondiamond132.pnghttp://img408.imageshack.us/img408/1484/pokemondiamond133.pnghttp://img502.imageshack.us/img502/3936/pokemondiamond134.png
Oh no!

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/8219/pokemondiamond136.png
Yes, what are you taking about. There's nothing strange going on here! Stop that crazy talk.

http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/7848/pokemondiamond138.pnghttp://img219.imageshack.us/img219/1314/pokemondiamond139.png
Ah, the pause for dramatic effect.

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8985/pokemondiamond140.pnghttp://img715.imageshack.us/img715/4489/pokemondiamond141.png
Le gasp!

http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/5169/bekjump3.gif
When in doubt, turn around and then jump!

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/307/pokemondiamond151.pnghttp://img683.imageshack.us/img683/6550/pokemondiamond152.png
No, it's Munchkin land. With all that jumping you flew over the rainbow, obviously.

http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8484/pokemondiamond154.pnghttp://img833.imageshack.us/img833/8161/pokemondiamond156.pnghttp://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4871/pokemondiamond157.png
How old is this phone we're talking about here? I mean, I remember the old-style phones which had an antenna, but three, let alone four?

(He's possibly referring to the signal strength which shows four, but who can tell? Still just as outdated!)

http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/7543/pokemondiamond159.pnghttp://img38.imageshack.us/img38/3195/pokemondiamond160.pnghttp://img521.imageshack.us/img521/5337/pokemondiamond161.pnghttp://img525.imageshack.us/img525/4654/pokemondiamond162.png
Phones are very magical, it seems.

http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8884/pokemondiamond167.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/9134/pokemondiamond168.pnghttp://img808.imageshack.us/img808/8240/pokemondiamond169.png
Always with the shooting, aren't you, Sungki.

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/6973/pokemondiamond170.pnghttp://img249.imageshack.us/img249/3779/pokemondiamond171.pnghttp://img576.imageshack.us/img576/7442/pokemondiamond172.png
A 'hard won portable'? A wonna is Bek? Clearly Sungki is too caught up in rambling to himself in a desparate attempt to try and make sense, while Bek is likely thinking to himself 'baseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseballbaseball'. A distraction is needed!

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4020/tutlrehi.gif
...yes, I suppose a random, talking turtle-like creature suffices.

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/5083/pokemondiamond181.png
Creepy turtle is creepy. :(

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/7977/pokemondiamond182.png
'Selected to stand and listen to Sungki wave phones about? Sadly, yes. Say, do you like baseball?'

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/3381/pokemondiamond183.pnghttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/619/pokemondiamond184.png
"I like baseball. Do you like baseball?"

http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/1956/pokemondiamond185.pnghttp://img98.imageshack.us/img98/3931/pokemondiamond186.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/5088/pokemondiamond187.png
He's clearly not a 'man', Sungki. And find out what?

http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/7348/pokemondiamond188.png
Gotta like something!

http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/3351/pokemondiamond202.png
Wait, I though we were going to find out something? And look, another creature too.

This prompts a yes/no response. Saying no has him give you a Brief History of the Electric Monster's World, and then he repeats the question. Fun times!

The general gist of said history is that the worlds were separated by 'dark curtains', but mankind figured a way to go through them (by walking?). They brought with them phones to make friends with the e-monsters - the 'D-shoot'. Exchanging phone numbers become custom between friends, although now stronger e-monsters had more numbers than other ones. Hence, combat between them and winning was how they got more numbers, and battling was referred to as 'making phonecalls'.

http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/1671/pokemondiamond247.png
If not, then don't worry, that was probably the best-translated part of the entire game! Let's find out why this...thing told us to come here.

http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/8692/pokemondiamond250.pnghttp://img130.imageshack.us/img130/6852/pokemondiamond251.pnghttp://img207.imageshack.us/img207/4889/pokemondiamond252.png
Like Pokemon, names of creatures are in CAPSLOCK. FOR COOLNESS.

http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/6131/pokemondiamond253.pnghttp://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3013/pokemondiamond254.png
Blah Blah woe is village. I guess that's why pipelines are good things!

They're not worried - they looks very worried! Now that's worrying.

http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/8472/pokemondiamond261.pnghttp://img338.imageshack.us/img338/4056/pokemondiamond262.pnghttp://img408.imageshack.us/img408/6902/pokemondiamond263.png
What sort of trouble, I wonder? Does he run about yelling obscenities, or steals everybody's left shoe?

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/783/pokemondiamond264.pnghttp://img3.imageshack.us/img3/2966/pokemondiamond265.pnghttp://img715.imageshack.us/img715/7240/pokemondiamond266.png
I don't think Bek has moved an inch thus far inside the house. Not even a mere jump.

http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/200/pokemondiamond267.pnghttp://img843.imageshack.us/img843/1858/pokemondiamond268.pnghttp://img403.imageshack.us/img403/8594/pokemondiamond269.png
A friend! A friend of you, Bek!

Phone Numbers is essentially like the telefang version of catching creatures. Now they do your bidding and all that jazz! Pity that doesn't work in real life. =(

This can be regarded as a [fourth wall] which has been broken.

Sungki finally speaks and makes little sense.

http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/4740/pokemondiamond291.png
'Quiet, Not-Sandslash, I'm still trying to find the baseball.'

...

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/1071/pokemondiamond295.png
Yeah, perhaps leaving is for the best, Bek.

http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/4986/pokemondiamond296.png
And now we're outside! What fun.

Thus ends the intro sequence! Now one can control your character! But first, let's examine this map.

http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/4210/pokemondiamond297.png
This map.
It is the best map!
Look at the places on that thing-
The map's blank. We have to fill it in _ourselves_.
WHO WOULD DO THIS (http://www.awkwardzombie.com/index.php?page=0&comic=041210)

Ok maybe the phone will be more interesting.

http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/5562/pokemondiamond298.png

Amusingly in the 'Options' part, there is a 'magic' option. Maybe the phone really does work on magic?
However, I do not know what this option actually does. ._.

http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/3719/pokemondiamond301.png
The 'Mons' option is essentially your E-monster Dex of the game.

Never has a dex entry been so interesting.

This was the turtle-like creature.
Who asked Bek 'is that a cute kid' and proclaimed that he would show us 'funny things'.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Telefang.

An explanation of stats and then some actual playing sequences - complete with battles - awaits in the next part! Which'll come whenever I can be bothered! =D


Also this is a neat Telefang site for images like the above. (http://telefang.meowcorp.us/index.html)

When in doubt, turn around and then jump!

xD lol

If not, then don't worry, that was probably the best-translated part of the entire game! Let's find out why this...thing told us to come here.

I seriously had a headache after reading it... xD

Best LP evar!Well cheers for indicating what parts amused you and the compliment. =) Glad you enjoyed it, and hope it shall continue!
That tree stump is an *******, you should stay the hell away from him in the future.Yeah, but there are far more devious foes to encounter.


Annnd onwards to part three! Long update is long, but eh.


Part Three - Looking for NETARO
Or a lot of walking north in which for the patient reader, curry increase!


BUT FIRST let's examine the stat screens to see what stuff means!

...or you can just skip the following spoiler! It's not that exciting.
http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/8063/pokemondiamond305.png
Not-Sandslash (whose name has been shortened for the stat screen...despite that the remaining two letters might fit in anyway!) is 'Knd wood' - of the wood type, in other words. His personality trait is also to 'get angr' (or 'angry'), which is also represented by the lightning bolt. It means for Not-Sandslash, he'll sometimes 'attack freely' - attack without you telling him to do so! (And how about that - Telefang had personality traits before Pokemon had natures, let alone its own 'personality traits').

LV is level, and you start at 5 with the starter e-monster (and max out at 99). HP is HP, FD is... a happiness trait it appears to me as it goes up upon winning battles and the such, and EX is EXP. Maximum you need to level up is 99, btw.

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/3743/pokemondiamond306.png
SP is speed, hit is attack, and fend is defense - obvious enough. Bolt however stands for 'special attack' - and what that means is the ultra-super-special-awesome attack only some (usually evolved) e-monsters get. 'Teleg' is the defense against such attacks, or so I assume...

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7079/pokemondiamond307.png
And finally - moves (or 'strategy'). Dive is an attack (akin to Tackle), and Diverge boosts his attack - like Howl. The last one Not-Sandslash learns later! Excitement!
And so ends the exciting tour of the statistics. Time to explore the world!

http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/4986/pokemondiamond296.png
http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2000_overworld.mp3

We have a time display and whatnot at the bottom, while the signal strength showing changes area to area...and is actually pretty important. We have 500 BL... boring lives? Brown lyrebirds? Bloody limbs? Oh, and we have full healt-

OH LOOK TREASURE

http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/6629/pokemondiamond308.png
Just when you think you've struck it rich, it turns out Bek is too weak to move a box. Or unable to climb over it. Even Not-Sandslash cannot do anything to it. Truly the toughest of obstacles.

I bet this is all the tree stump's fault.

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8492/pokemondiamond309.png
'It is truly a exciting place. Can we go home now to watch the [baseball]?'

http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/9189/pokemondiamond310.pnghttp://img17.imageshack.us/img17/1483/pokemondiamond311.pnghttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/5857/pokemondiamond312.png
Aw, bugger. I guess we have to go help out then. That crafty turtle-lizard...thing.

It seems Bek already got his running shoes on though...

http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/2786/pokemondiamond318.png
You can run so fast you cut the grass! And from the grass you can get currency and hearts! HMM, this sounds awfully familiar...

http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/1338/pokemondiamond320.pnghttp://img259.imageshack.us/img259/8852/pokemondiamond321.png
Suddenly, a KESI. Oh god that's not familiar in the slightest.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2009_battle intro.mp3

Ah, our first battle. Fight is...well, fight, Position means 'check out the opponent's stats and whatnot', and Escape is Escape.

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/5283/pokemondiamond322.png
Bek has Not-Sandslash as a friend, but nobody else... so sad. Anyways, during a battle you can call other e-monsters to help you, but if you don't have any other phone numbers, then you 'didn't call the mate!'

http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/2641/pokemondiamond324.png
...Miao? Does this KESI believe it is a cat?

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2011_normal battle.mp3

http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/1836/pokemondiamond325.pnghttp://img255.imageshack.us/img255/4/pokemondiamond327.png
That was not very nice, KESI. =(

Ah, good old engrish. What it means isn't hard to figure out, but oh dear, what an awkward way to word it.

http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/1552/pokemondiamond328.pnghttp://img230.imageshack.us/img230/8827/pokemondiamond329.pnghttp://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4205/pokemondiamond331.png
Despite being only one level higher, Not-Sandslash is clearly superior, dealing some 17 points of more lost!

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/8665/pokemondiamond333.pnghttp://img809.imageshack.us/img809/4436/pokemondiamond334.png
Moves can also miss/fail!

http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/6826/pokemondiamond335.png
The 'attacked freely' bit is Not-Sandslash's personality trait kicking in.

http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/8976/pokemondiamond337.pnghttp://img809.imageshack.us/img809/4783/pokemondiamond338.png
We have overthrown the KESI and caught it!

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2015_victory!.mp3

...well, not really - catching in this game actually means getting the creature's phone number (I assume you got a good glimpse of their phone...right?). But despite beating up this KESI to a bleeding pulp and giving it the inability to sit down for a week, it refused to tell us its number! How rude.

http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/1372/pokemondiamond339.pnghttp://img820.imageshack.us/img820/3230/pokemondiamond340.pnghttp://img819.imageshack.us/img819/1275/pokemondiamond341.png
On the flip side, exp points get...and balls?

Yes - it turns out BL stood for BALLS. The currency of the electric-monster's world is ball!

And Bek now has 531 balls!
http://www.kaboodle.com/hi/img/c/0/0/7d/e/AAAADMybs1MAAAAAAH3rTQ.jpg
Yeeeeaaaaaaah.

As a side note - any HP lost n a battle can be regained by waiting, or waiting and mashing the B button. Take that, Pokemon Centres!

http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/3111/pokemondiamond342.pnghttp://img193.imageshack.us/img193/1835/pokemondiamond343.png
'Not really - they're far uglier and lacking in baseball. =( No offence, Not-Sandslash.'

http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/9192/pokemondiamond344.pnghttp://img249.imageshack.us/img249/6070/pokemondiamond345.png
Well, that's true, I guess - just look at Not-Sandslash!

And hey, another house - let's check it out.

http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/7083/pokemondiamond348.pnghttp://img522.imageshack.us/img522/5151/pokemondiamond349.png
'Holy baseball - a talking house!'

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/1852/pokemondiamond351.png
Oh god, this Takabi is really Frankenstein's monster!

http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/7342/pokemondiamond352.pnghttp://img830.imageshack.us/img830/327/pokemondiamond353.pnghttp://img12.imageshack.us/img12/9335/pokemondiamond354.png
I would not be surprised if he meant to teach Bek how to get phones to say hello. 'Why hello there, Mr Nokia!'

But no, Frankenstein's monster just rambles in a repetitive manner on what is super-effective against what with an attack of boring, wordy words.

Meanwhile, another KESI tries to fight us!

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/8407/smokez.gif
...eww. =(

http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/4725/pokemondiamond363.png
After spitting its breakfast at us, the KESI decides that it would like to become friends!

http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/9454/pokemondiamond364.pnghttp://img19.imageshack.us/img19/9304/pokemondiamond365.pnghttp://img227.imageshack.us/img227/3952/pokemondiamond367.png
Do you want the phone number of this...gray blob thingy?

...eh, sure why not.

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/2962/pokemondiamond368.pnghttp://img843.imageshack.us/img843/1961/pokemondiamond369.pnghttp://img251.imageshack.us/img251/3944/pokemondiamond370.png
Very good indeed!

Let's look at the 'dex entry' for it!

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/5061/pokemondiamond432.png
So it doesn't always come in this colour? Then why does it look like this!?! Yes, KESI, do go and hide yourself from sight. =(

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/7312/pokemondiamond371.png
Now whenever we have a battle, we can call up our new friend to fight for us! Yes - it's OK indeed.

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/488/pokemondiamond372.png
This allows for wonderfully fun one-sided battles in your favour against opponents! And look, an OSIE shows up. Say hello, OSIE.

http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/9757/pokemondiamond379.pnghttp://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2585/pokemondiamond380.pnghttp://img191.imageshack.us/img191/526/pokemondiamond382.png
This means...that the attack was super effective. For the telefang bootleg, engrish increase!

http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/7492/pokemondiamond384.png
Level up Grade raise!

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2017_level up!.mp3

http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/6596/pokemondiamond385.png
These are such amazing stat gains!

http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/8819/pokemondiamond386.png
Clearly this grade raising business impressed the OSIE.

http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/6083/pokemondiamond431.png
What a wimpy entry.

That's enough of this showing of battles business for now - let's get moving and talking to people.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/3693/pokemondiamond390.pnghttp://img541.imageshack.us/img541/3866/pokemondiamond391.png
This thing tells us what types there are in the game. Not an interesting fellow either...

Yes, and it's once too many- oh hey a shop. I wonder what kind of stuff they sell here?

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2021_shopping.mp3

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/8730/pokemondiamond403.png
...ok, maybe they like mining or something?

http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/9141/pokemondiamond404.png
It's not just a card - it's a P-card! But...what does the P stand for? Is this a Pokemon card?

http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/2603/pokemondiamond405.png
Well this I can agree with-

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/3/pokemondiamond406.png
What.

...or maybe this is the D Shoot everyone talks about? =/

http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4641/pokemondiamond407.png
Yeah, maybe we'll just buy the game for now.

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/5831/pokemondiamond408.pnghttp://img338.imageshack.us/img338/6397/pokemondiamond409.pnghttp://img43.imageshack.us/img43/6442/pokemondiamond410.pnghttp://img528.imageshack.us/img528/4118/pokemondiamond411.png
Seems everyone is waiting for this NETARO bloke to deliver the water already. Maybe they should tell KESI to stop spitting breakfast in it - then it'll be cleaner! And look - a person who does not look like Frankenstein's monster!

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/8472/pokemondiamond412.pnghttp://img190.imageshack.us/img190/3576/pokemondiamond413.pnghttp://img535.imageshack.us/img535/3733/pokemondiamond414.png

That's the entire content of that phone call. Well, have you had sense, Telefang?

Let's just walk north already and get to that place.

http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/4343/pokemondiamond439.png
It's a bird!

http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/8484/pokemondiamond441.png
A very mean bird. =( Note that flying stuff is super-effective against Not-Sandslash here.

Hmm, shopping for 'D Shoot', maybe? =/ But let us investigate.

http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/1195/pokemondiamond457.png
Yes, I think Bek is a human... not necessarily a bright one, but he still counts!

How rude indeed!

More talking reveals he wants to just make friends with the electric monster...but wasn't the thing complaining about him one? And why does he have 'no interest in human being'? Man, this game is confusing.

http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/8924/pokemondiamond465.png
I don't even know anymore. Why didn't anyone buy him an alarm clock!?

http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/192/pokemondiamond466.pnghttp://img84.imageshack.us/img84/2047/pokemondiamond467.png

Bek also demonstrates an inability to lift barrels (despite him holding a drill and whatnot back in the shop just fine).

You know a politician is desperate for votes when he decides that he'll use a curry store as a way to gather up votes. But then again, half of everyone seems to be crazy, so.

http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/2718/pokemondiamond543.png

http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/2343/pokemondiamond547.pnghttp://img717.imageshack.us/img717/641/pokemondiamond548.png
I wonder who is the more confused - Bek, for meeting a politician who promised to build a curry shop so he can become the Prime Minister, or the e-monster who doesn't even know what is the thing that the politician promised?

Ok, moving on away from the crazy curry cult... oh wait, OSIE was one of them. D=

Ah, we must be getting closer finally! Whenever you see silly statues with faces you know you're nearly there!

The next update should be shorter, but no less confusing!

[shininglatios217]

Now I understand why did you write in your signature "A Let's Play with curry and Engrish"...

By the way, great LP. It's funny to see how much pirates can fail in making a translation of a game (specially after seeing that they labeled it as a Pokémon game).

[Giratina ♀]

I'm both elated and annoyed at this LP. /was planning to make a fanfic about Pokémon 'Diamond'... but regardless. |P I was amused considerably, but of course remain confused by virtue of it having anything to do with Diamond/Jade... yeah. I'm sure that a Let's Play of this game will produce much snickering as time goes on.

If I remember correctly, it actually have a better translation that I have played once.

Pretty fun on the battles once you get the hang of it, actually.

[Midew T] = Mildew Trainers?

That's what I thought it meant, what that says about me I have no idea.

[bobandbill]

Now I understand why did you write in your signature "A Let's Play with curry and Engrish"...

By the way, great LP. It's funny to see how much pirates can fail in making a translation of a game (specially after seeing that they labeled it as a Pokémon game).Yeah, I suppose on doesn't often here about a LP with engrish AND curry... Hurrah for you finding it amusing though. =)
I'm both elated and annoyed at this LP. /was planning to make a fanfic about Pokémon 'Diamond'... but regardless. |P I was amused considerably, but of course remain confused by virtue of it having anything to do with Diamond/Jade... yeah. I'm sure that a Let's Play of this game will produce much snickering as time goes on.I imagine you would be. =p I hope a do a worthy job on Pokemon Diamond then I guess if you were thinking of doing a fic. ;p May there be snickering!
If I remember correctly, it actually have a better translation that I have played once.

Pretty fun on the battles once you get the hang of it, actually.I have heard likewise, but I have never seen a completed project of the such. (I have recently seen an even worse pirate of telefang though =/).

And agreed - the battles can be certainly fun and challenging too. Certainly a fair bit involved in them as well.
[Midew T] = Mildew Trainers?

That's what I thought it meant, what that says about me I have no idea.
According to wikipedia, 'Mildew refers to certain kinds of mold or fungus', so even then it seems odd (or maybe not that odd considering it's telefang) that they ask if one is a mold/fungus trainer?

And...

Part Four: Still looking for NETARO
Or wandering about a cave and finding out what a trainer looks like.

Ok, let's get to exploring this place and wake up someone already.

http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/8292/pokemondiamond03.pnghttp://img222.imageshack.us/img222/667/pokemondiamond04.pnghttp://img63.imageshack.us/img63/4144/pokemondiamond05.png
And that's why you are running about in circles in this room, right? Gotta love helpful NPCs.

http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/15/pokemondiamond06.png
When you enter a new place, it takes extra time for your friends to reach you. And if that's the case...

http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/2585/pokemondiamond07.pnghttp://img26.imageshack.us/img26/8162/pokemondiamond08.png
...then sometimes you will be called during the battle to be informed that they will be late. How helpful.

While exploring, Kokia decided to share the following:

http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/9605/pokemondiamond10.pnghttp://img213.imageshack.us/img213/9319/pokemondiamond11.pnghttp://img696.imageshack.us/img696/4167/pokemondiamond120.pnghttp://img94.imageshack.us/img94/3680/pokemondiamond13.png
I can't say i know who or what BURTAMAS is but how does a screwdriver increases his exp?

http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/6054/pokemondiamond14.pnghttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6241/pokemondiamond15.pnghttp://img829.imageshack.us/img829/9060/pokemondiamond16.png
So essentially, don't give him a screwdriver or he'll break everything with it.

The cave is hardly entertaining...no crazy mazes or the like.
http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/7029/pokemondiamond18.png
See? Boring.

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/3262/pokemondiamond19.png
More water but still boring!

http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/3816/pokemondiamond20.png
Oh hey a guy with a hat.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1282/pokemondiamond21.png
Not here, clearly...

http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/3995/pokemondiamond22.pnghttp://img69.imageshack.us/img69/9605/pokemondiamond23.pnghttp://img697.imageshack.us/img697/5160/pokemondiamond24.png
'Well Not-Sandslash, you heard the guy. Let's go back and find some baseball!'

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/530/pokemondiamond26.png
Only Bek then proceeds to look about and decide he's too darn lazy to walk all the way back. To be fair, this game is troublesome for him.

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/148/pokemondiamond27.pnghttp://img818.imageshack.us/img818/170/pokemondiamond28.png
Ok, take a good look at the man in the overworld and what this 'KAKUZATO' actually looks like. The 'start to enter' bit can be taken in a bad way too. -_-

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2012_trainer battle.mp3

He'll proceed to send out a monster to match your Kuribute and may call up to two others while you can call up to two other e-monsters too.

http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/9919/pokemondiamond31.pnghttp://img441.imageshack.us/img441/6317/pokemondiamond32.png
Of course both of mine decided to get lost, despite having found their way here before. The battle is easy enough though - Kesi is nothing to write home about.

Upon winning:

http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/7537/pokemondiamond34.png
And then the guy runs off. But wait, that was the name of the politician who promised curry... hmm. Now we have politicians that seem to look like telefang's version of pedobear, great.

http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/2062/pokemondiamond35.png
Crossroads! Let's go down.

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/8163/pokemondiamond36.pnghttp://img840.imageshack.us/img840/75/pokemondiamond37.pnghttp://img688.imageshack.us/img688/2392/pokemondiamond38.pnghttp://img843.imageshack.us/img843/8186/pokemondiamond39.pnghttp://img138.imageshack.us/img138/7995/pokemondiamond40.png
The creature sounds confused, and to be honest I don't blame him.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/8918/pokemondiamond41.png
Let's give him a talking to then!

http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/4594/pokemondiamond43.pnghttp://img502.imageshack.us/img502/7180/pokemondiamond44.pnghttp://img690.imageshack.us/img690/9050/pokemondiamond45.png
But we want to-

http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/5737/pokemondiamond52.png
He places emphasis on his order by jumping as well. Bek is convinced by this jumping and hence you are unable to get past him. Oh well, going back up...

http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/6438/pokemondiamond56.pnghttp://img525.imageshack.us/img525/7457/pokemondiamond57.pnghttp://img41.imageshack.us/img41/1732/pokemondiamond58.png
So now it is the trainer of fungi or mold they look for? At any rate, the door is locked and remains so for a good while, and is unimportant anyways.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/6811/pokemondiamond60.pnghttp://img695.imageshack.us/img695/8650/pokemondiamond61.png
Ah, a politician demonstrating how to use one's head. Hang the fact it's locked - open it anyway!

http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/5286/charge.gif
The politician fails.

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/6093/pokemondiamond69.pnghttp://img508.imageshack.us/img508/3315/pokemondiamond70.png
How vague.

http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/1881/pokemondiamond72.png
Yes, I can see you running into locked doors.

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/3958/pokemondiamond74.png
The politician leaves, and Bek begins to...think I suppose. At any rate, 'that guy' has the key. At least here it is not too hard to figure out who here has it as we've got a confused creature, a man running around in circles and an angry guy stopping us from going anywhere.

Let's go-

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5087/pokemondiamond77.png
Suddenly a random battle from...

...um, what looks like a decapitated warthog. =(

http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/6358/pokemondiamond78.png
An aggressive decapitated warthog, my mistake.

http://img802.imageshack.us/img802/5894/pokemondiamond80.pnghttp://img26.imageshack.us/img26/3683/pokemondiamond81.png
Damn straight.

http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/2152/pokemondiamond82.png
So apparently it has limbs, but I still remain sceptical given the appearance and all. =/

http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/6500/pokemondiamond83.png
Watching politicians run into stuff and encountering even weirder looking things.

http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/4351/pokemondiamond84.png
Oh shut up already.

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/1/pokemondiamond88.pnghttp://img413.imageshack.us/img413/3972/pokemondiamond89.pnghttp://img704.imageshack.us/img704/5360/pokemondiamond90.png
And by asked, I mean he kept talking about the history of this world until I said yes.

http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/4920/pokemondiamond92.pnghttp://img17.imageshack.us/img17/1237/pokemondiamond93.pnghttp://img52.imageshack.us/img52/8449/pokemondiamond94.png
Hey, wait a second, Bek just said he was asked to wake him up, is all!

http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/8348/pokemondiamond95.pnghttp://img403.imageshack.us/img403/8360/pokemondiamond96.pnghttp://img204.imageshack.us/img204/8782/pokemondiamond97.png
I think this is why MUSA asked us to go here instead of doing stuff himself. -_-

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2012_trainer battle.mp3

http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/5513/pokemondiamond99.png
I'm not sure why he wants to make a call when he doesn't call anyone else. Maybe he calls himself. 'Oh hey, NEJIRO!' 'Stop shouting my name.' 'Sorry, NEJIRO! Anyways can you beat this guy up for me?' 'No.' 'I'll be your friend!' 'Ok fine sheesh.'

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/9718/pokemondiamond100.png
Not that tough a battle on paper considering it's 3 on 1 in your favour, but it can be difficult if you haven't trained enough (he has a type advantage against Not-Sandslash) and/or you haven't gotten the phone number of anyone in the cave - because with some bad luck your friends get lost and it's one-on-one again.

http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/3392/pokemondiamond101.png
Luckily that is not a problem.

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/43/pokemondiamond102.png
Do what, exactly...?

http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/4596/pokemondiamond103.pnghttp://img577.imageshack.us/img577/6264/pokemondiamond104.png
Ah, he chose his super-awesome-special move, which is usually a one-hit kill when it hits. It however takes at least a few turns to charge (the DP bar which apparently stands for e-magic? is the display for that), and we don't need that long to win.

http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/9399/pokemondiamond109.png
A fairly easy battle in this case. Take that, angry...thing.

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/3852/pokemondiamond110.pnghttp://img696.imageshack.us/img696/4328/pokemondiamond111.pnghttp://img256.imageshack.us/img256/8056/pokemondiamond112.pnghttp://img29.imageshack.us/img29/4396/pokemondiamond113.png
Everything, I tell you! Because that's what one does when fleeing politicians. This puts everything in perspective - he probably mistook us for a politician. Maybe he doesn't like curry?

http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/5071/pokemondiamond115.pnghttp://img63.imageshack.us/img63/3755/pokemondiamond116.pnghttp://img522.imageshack.us/img522/3922/pokemondiamond117.pnghttp://img64.imageshack.us/img64/4504/pokemondiamond118.png

NEJIRO continues to display thinking abilities. Durr hurr, you must be all politicians!

http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/213/pokemondiamond124.pnghttp://img577.imageshack.us/img577/7873/pokemondiamond125.png
Bek's question prompts a lot of jumping.

http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/5091/pokemondiamond128.pnghttp://img715.imageshack.us/img715/1327/pokemondiamond129.pnghttp://img89.imageshack.us/img89/129/pokemondiamond130.png
Oh that's all right. I mean, you only repeatedly ignored what he said and threatened to kill us. That's an innocent-enough mistake!

http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/6493/pokemondiamond131.pnghttp://img121.imageshack.us/img121/7088/pokemondiamond132.pnghttp://img263.imageshack.us/img263/1484/pokemondiamond133.pnghttp://img46.imageshack.us/img46/3936/pokemondiamond134.png
'Ok, this is for your own good. Now go to sleep, or the politicians will get you!'

No, really - that's basically what he is saying. And you thought our pollies were bad enough. These ons kidnap and play dress-up.

http://img816.imageshack.us/img816/8040/pokemondiamond135.pnghttp://img69.imageshack.us/img69/8219/pokemondiamond136.pnghttp://img338.imageshack.us/img338/3408/pokemondiamond137.pnghttp://img153.imageshack.us/img153/7848/pokemondiamond138.png

Man, with friends like these, who needs enemies?

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/259/pokemondiamond153.png
And then he disappears, like a ninja or something.

http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/2559/pokemondiamond542.png
A...Mo-gun?

http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/7543/pokemondiamond159.png
Woot. Now to go open a door.

While travelling back, we get another phone call telling us HERIOPS likes propellers. And we also got our first instance of an e-monster learning a new move!

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/1747/pokemondiamond166.png
This is one of my favourite out-of-context telefang moments. Heck even context doesn't do much to savage anything. After all, Telefang gives one the impression the translator may have been high or something...

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/8884/pokemondiamond167.png
Oh look it seems we found him.

http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/9134/pokemondiamond168.pnghttp://img809.imageshack.us/img809/8240/pokemondiamond169.png
Bek is pretty serious business about this - you can tell by the jump.

As a note - imagine this scene with everyone jumping after they finish and/or start speaking.

The engrish is consistent, but not any better due to that...

And suddenly the game throws a level 10 at you with an advantage over Not-Sandslash. Fun!

The rest of her team.

Luckily they take a few turns to arrive, and if you are lucky enough to win before everyone else arrives the battle ends.

[shininglatios217]

Monsters with confusing dialogue? A politician that wants to make a curry store and doesn't knows how to use a phone and thinks water is dangerous? A girl that (apparently) is a guy? This game is starting to get extremely confusing... Maybe if I played the game I would understand it. *downloads ROM*

I never felt any suspense playing this because of the bad Engrish. :<

Oh, don't forget to buy items.

Oh, don't forget to buy items.Yeah, the Engrish does kill off any suspense in a dialogue-heavy game. =/ Oh well, at least it's amusing?

Yeah, I'll be sure to spend, although items usually aren't too important in this game unless you're intent on trying to get as many as you can or exploiting exp stuff. =D
damn the engrish! xD
it's too confusing to keep track of who is who and what is what @_@Well...it gets worse. =p In more ways than one! But this game does have a number of characters, that's for sure...

[shininglatios217]

It get's... worse? Is that even possible? O.o

At least the Engrish is funny, like you already said.

[Team Fail]

I never felt any suspense playing this because of the bad Engrish. :<

Oh, don't forget to buy items.

That is, if ypu can guess what they are. I wouldn't trust anyone to buy a gun from a countertop. Who knows if it is safe. And what would a kid be doing with that gun anyways?

[Froslass_Maniac]

Oh i remember playing this as a little kid. ~

lol... I found it rude that I wasn't allowed to save... So yeah, it bored me pretty quickly (I once left the pc on when I paused and I played together with my brother, we got pretty far back then), At that time I couldn't read english. And the only thing that was familliar to me was "curry" Although at that time I only knew it as some sort of... Sauce...? So yeah... I pretty much skipped everything that is said. Looking at this LP makes me laugh since I now understand english. xDD

Ahaha ~ I also called kuribute Sandslash first but then I just said it's name correctly (somehow it reminds me of kirby...)

[shininglatios217]

what would a kid be doing with that gun anyways?

Actually, it's worse. What would a kid be doing giving a gun to a monster?

[bobandbill]

It get's... worse? Is that even possible? O.o

At least the Engrish is funny, like you already said.Yes! =p Anyways, more characters, confusing plots and other stuff contributes to it. =p

That is, if ypu can guess what they are. I wouldn't trust anyone to buy a gun from a countertop. Who knows if it is safe. And what would a kid be doing with that gun anyways?You wouldn't, but the creatures in the e-monster world do! =D And guns are not quite the 'worst' and such items actually do have a use in a way...but you will see. =p

I seem to be lucky to have had a copy of the game and not have saving issues with it too, I suppose. And at least now you can 'understand' what is being said I suppose?
Actually, it's worse. What would a kid be doing giving a gun to a monster?So it can use D shoot, obviously. ;p And anyways, a few updates will cover items (because that's only when the game begins to cover it itself!)

[Froslass_Maniac]

Yup. I know english nao so I see alot of engrish. xD I've been starting playing too again.

Before that everytime I saw the word 'currie' I was like: "CURRRIEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" =D

Well yeah, after a while I got stuck because I didn't know what to do. So I was just messing around in the desert, trying to find a way to make any progress.. xDD Oh well, now I made it through. :3

[bobandbill]

And about time this got an update. I took a bit of a break and then focused on some writing, but now I did some of that here's an uneventful update. =p

Part Five - Magical Trees!
Or MUSA tells us to do stuff for him after a lot of talking.

http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/9247/pokemondiamond286.png
So last off we got a phone call the moment we got out. This happens in the game a lot. How conveniently timed!

I like how Bek has to jump even when talking to someone through a phone. No doubt Sungki is also doing his fair share of jumping.

I always wondered what those games were... I had heard of them when I was a kid, and always wondered what they were... Since I never bothered to look into them.

Now I know that it's a good thing I didn't, or else I would have been very confused! XD

This is an epic LP, I'll be keeping an eye on it! You have a great sense of humor!

These random calls steadily get worse as you'll see. =p

Yes, thank you, Not-Sandslash. Overkill is always a good way to get rid of it. (Type advantage, yo). But god it has rolls of fat and

I bet you this guy heard about how we should give him a BOMB.

http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/9816/pokemondiamond540.png
Yep, how about that. Should we give him a BOMB?

http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/9273/pokemondiamond539.png
No, I think a CLAW TO THE FACE is better. =(

Not-Sandslash pops up to warn us about our bomb-loving friends.

That'll do for this update - I'll try to keep each one to this sort of size more often so it's easier for me to make an update. The next one might be relatively soon!

[Ken638]

Oh lol, this game is awesome :°D

So in other words, do what Team Rocket did? Uh... I'm going to leave now.

...I am not making this up - I looked at the bomb and then he calls me and decides to tell me ABOUT OTHER FIRENDS OF HIS THAT WANT A BOMB. GOOD GRIEF.

MANSTL WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM

X°°°°D

[bobandbill]

Oh lol, this game is awesome :°D

X°°°°D...Yes, it is. =p

And as nobody else posted (the more the merrier people ;p), I'll get onto the next part! And a word of warning - from here on in the swearing in the game starts gradually...and then very quickly sticks to it a few parts down the track. (!)


Part Seven - Search for a Thief!
Or a lot of talking to someone and trying to find [Key]!


So, last off we were being warned by Not-Sandslash... you could say that our bomb-loving 'friends' are rather, well-
http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/861/pokemondiamond589.png
Yes, well put, whoever is behind that floating text box.

http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/6955/pokemondiamond590.png
Oh, it's another of...those things. Guess we ought to talk to it.

http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/1642/pokemondiamond591.png
Bek sure does have a way with words.

Not the key! But I guess that's what was being talked about beforehand!
Gotta like that it's not clear who's asking 'who did so'.

http://img858.imageshack.us/img858/525/pokemondiamond597.pnghttp://img18.imageshack.us/img18/3096/pokemondiamond598.pnghttp://img805.imageshack.us/img805/8498/pokemondiamond599.png
...The prisoner stole the key? What prisoner?

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/7821/pokemondiamond600.png
Basically sums it up!

http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/2746/pokemondiamond603.png
That's...real deep, man.

http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/4666/pokemondiamond605.pnghttp://img576.imageshack.us/img576/8709/pokemondiamond606.png
Yeah, you tell him, Bek!

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/510/pokemondiamond607.pnghttp://img151.imageshack.us/img151/9043/pokemondiamond608.png
Gosh, that's pretty pathetic of you.

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5930/pokemondiamond609.png
See, even Bek jumps at the patheticness. Deal with your own problems!

http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/9804/pokemondiamond610.png
Wait what.

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/1200/pokemondiamond613.png
God damn it Bek.

http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/2882/pokemondiamond614.pnghttp://img130.imageshack.us/img130/2111/pokemondiamond615.png
I mean... Well done, Bek!

But then again given how weird people are here... with our luck he'll just give us a bomb.

http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/6420/pokemondiamond617.png
Guess we ought to go find our thief. Bek, who do you think stole-

http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/7148/pokemondiamond620.png
Well ok.

http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/9131/pokemondiamond621.pnghttp://img535.imageshack.us/img535/3183/pokemondiamond622.png
But Bek that is a monster I doubt he even has pockets for a key.

http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/9473/pokemondiamond624.png
See, no pockets!

http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/6382/pokemondiamond625.png
Unfortunately SUKORI didn't quite think it had been a peaceful accusation.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/3952/pokemondiamond626.png
Gotta like veiled threats!

http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/110/pokemondiamond627.png
Clearly SUKORI knows which is the bigger threat here - the oversized ugly Jabba the Hut.

http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/4830/pokemondiamond628.png
Uh, I don't think it's a good idea to bite...that thing...

http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/9691/pokemondiamond629.pnghttp://img51.imageshack.us/img51/5549/pokemondiamond630.png
Well damn.

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/3314/pokemondiamond631.pnghttp://img850.imageshack.us/img850/5605/pokemondiamond632.png
Nor it seems about what to bite or not. Clearly not our thief then because...well, he said so.

http://img857.imageshack.us/img857/38/pokemondiamond633.png
And then he disappears into thin air. I guess one can assume he died of food poisoning.

http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/215/pokemondiamond635.png
Oh look, that annoying person showed up! I just hope by 'leave it to me' she isn't going to try and eat GUMI too. =(

If you were referring to GUMI then we are also wondering the same thing.

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/392/pokemondiamond640.png
Clearly Bek is none too pleased.

http://img863.imageshack.us/img863/7909/pokemondiamond642.png
Quick, Bek, think up an excuse!

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/8050/pokemondiamond643.png
Well done, Bek.

http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/843/pokemondiamond644.pnghttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/5794/pokemondiamond645.png
Yes! Going to other worlds promotes you to the rank of 'ordinary!'

http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/9941/pokemondiamond646.png
Uh...well, you see...

http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/8397/pokemondiamond647.png

I like how the game calls the thief 'prisoner' despite the fact on only becomes a prisoner when, you know, they're caught, not before. Unless we're talking about some poor confused curry worker who escaped and tried to use the key to get the hell away from this place... say Miyor, how do we get back?

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/9828/pokemondiamond653.pnghttp://img691.imageshack.us/img691/760/pokemondiamond654.pnghttp://img148.imageshack.us/img148/3200/pokemondiamond655.pnghttp://img607.imageshack.us/img607/5755/pokemondiamond656.png
Fat load of help you are. =( And yes, we said the same thing when he bit GUMI.

"You know the type - someone who has a moustache, evil laugh, a key and dislikes baseball, for instance. That's always suspicious!"

http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/3398/pokemondiamond661.pnghttp://img848.imageshack.us/img848/2309/pokemondiamond662.png

Just in case the following screenshot didn't give it away, you know.

I like how he said 'shut up' when Bek has really said nothing to him. That and his choice word there.

Uh, firstly you're talking to Bek, Sungki, so you can refer to him directly. And do you mean 'where Bek is' or 'lived'? I'm inclined to think the former, but well, it's telefang! English good not!

Hey bro, get an Osoe, train it to an Armory. Trust me, you'll thank me later.Osie, right? Actually.. I never actually used Kuribute before beyond the 2nd place so I think I'll stick with him with this runthrough. Besides Armory (which I have used before) didn't strike me as the greatest to be honest. =/

Part Eight - Kelina Cave

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang -%2006_cave.mp3

So, we're in - let's go and- at that point I got a phone call with more questions. I was lucky to save the game beforehand - certain phone calls are always in a specific order so this keeps repeating no matter which one calls me. Hence I could explore all the options and what is said for each one!

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/5340/pokemondiamond737.pnghttp://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2867/pokemondiamond738.png
This is a [question]! Yes No

But who the frell is Peach Boy? Is he talking about this?

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d5/JamesAndTheGiantPeach.jpg/200px-JamesAndTheGiantPeach.jpg
Well uh, let's say yes.

Abuh. Is Peach Boy a Glutinous millet bun what.

The answer btw is yes. (Different e-monster asking this time)
http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/2757/pokemondiamond753.pnghttp://img641.imageshack.us/img641/4483/pokemondiamond754.png
Dwell on that for a bit.

And if we said no to that...statement about it hearing a story about Peach Boy:

http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/9407/pokemondiamond743.pnghttp://img222.imageshack.us/img222/5646/pokemondiamond744.png

And then he asks us another 'question' about Peach Boy despite saying we do not know. Uhhhh...

Wait, what?

http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/5094/pokemondiamond763.png
There's more than one of these KAKUZATO? Oh dear.

RODANSA - he's Cool!

http://img807.imageshack.us/img807/4059/pokemondiamond766.png
Hurrah for a 2-on-1 battle. Just as well we got OSIE in the cave too, because anything else takes 3 turns to reach us! When RODANSA has the type advantage, that's pretty significant.

http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/8808/pokemondiamond767.pnghttp://img822.imageshack.us/img822/9155/pokemondiamond768.png
And hence the battle is easy!

http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/2301/pokemondiamond769.pnghttp://img42.imageshack.us/img42/2312/pokemondiamond773.png
From here nearly every 'trainer' battle results in you getting a phone number.

What is it? I wish I knew too...

http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/5894/pokemondiamond779.png
Hey, you don't know either!

http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/8886/pokemondiamond780.png
Le sigh. What are they even anyway? Aliens? Cosplayers?

http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/9690/pokemondiamond781.pnghttp://img851.imageshack.us/img851/5773/pokemondiamond782.png
Quick and easy provided you've done a bit of grinding beforehand. Not that we needed more owls though.

Moving onwards!

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/6843/pokemondiamond785.pnghttp://img13.imageshack.us/img13/4830/pokemondiamond786.pnghttp://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3742/pokemondiamond787.png
You should totally quit and just let me past without a battle.

http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/5254/pokemondiamond788.pnghttp://img688.imageshack.us/img688/7264/pokemondiamond790.png
Yes, it is troublesome-

http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/6262/pokemondiamond791.png
Yet he still battles.

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/7015/pokemondiamond792.pnghttp://img851.imageshack.us/img851/5773/pokemondiamond782.png
Owls everywhere! We now have all the owls. ALL OF THEM.

http://img808.imageshack.us/img808/9080/pokemondiamond794.pnghttp://img855.imageshack.us/img855/5214/pokemondiamond795.png
"First election, are you half study half work,". I'm sure he's trying to tell me something, but what?

http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/3927/pokemondiamond796.pnghttp://img850.imageshack.us/img850/8748/pokemondiamond797.png
I suppose Not-Sandslash counts as a thing.

http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/6272/pokemondiamond798.pnghttp://img851.imageshack.us/img851/5397/pokemondiamond799.png
Not more of them!

http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/4048/pokemondiamond800.pnghttp://img269.imageshack.us/img269/5832/pokemondiamond801.pnghttp://img121.imageshack.us/img121/9436/pokemondiamond802.pnghttp://img215.imageshack.us/img215/6978/pokemondiamond803.pnghttp://img692.imageshack.us/img692/8301/pokemondiamond804.png
Wait, pals? If you mean those owls you can have them, I already had the phone number of one and frankly one is more than enough. Stupid bomb-loving thing...

http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/8669/pokemondiamond806.png
Clearly having someone's phone number is serious business!

http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/7534/pokemondiamond807.png
And so we meet the angry starfish.

http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/6950/pokemondiamond809.png
Now they start having more than one creature! However theirs take a few turns to arrive, and as type advantages come into play...

http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/2683/pokemondiamond810.pnghttp://img820.imageshack.us/img820/7097/pokemondiamond811.pnghttp://img705.imageshack.us/img705/4193/pokemondiamond812.png
We win before the other arrives, and hence end the battle early.

http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/8702/pokemondiamond813.pnghttp://img801.imageshack.us/img801/6334/pokemondiamond815.png
...let's just move on then, shall we?

I guess you mean the guy above you who I just beat up...?

http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/3360/pokemondiamond819.png
How without grammar?

http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/4364/pokemondiamond820.png
"The land of baseball!"

http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/3025/pokemondiamond822.pnghttp://img156.imageshack.us/img156/3565/pokemondiamond808.png
It's a dinosaur! A Cowardly one, but he has pants!

Similar story - easy battle, ended before the other creature arrives.

http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/4376/pokemondiamond827.png
But then why does it seem like he is wearing pants...? And how does that even work - pockets on the feet? Man, biology sure screwed up a lot of things around here.

http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/8091/pokemondiamond826.png
We defeated the competition? Can we not save the day anymore? Maybe the exit is onwards...

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/walkwalkwalkphone.gif

Oh look, the bomb loving friend has returned, and managed to get the ]tags[ wrong as well. But look, a question even Bek can answer!

It seems the game suddenly turned into Baseball Trivia - now with extra owls.

Yes, I'm sorry too. Sorry that I've had to beat up all of these...things. Whatever they really are.

I understand the first part - this village is important location-wise and so he wants to have power here... only then it breaks down at the end. Or does he only want to vote that badly? I don't even. Sounds like crazy politician talk again.

http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/7957/pokemondiamond860.pnghttp://img806.imageshack.us/img806/5143/pokemondiamond861.png
Ramble all you like, you're still going to lose.

Say, OSIE, maybe you'd like to do something in this battle! Not-Sandslash is doing all the work here -what can you do?

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/starey2.gif
Oh god what are you doinggggggg

http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/341/pokemondiamond866.png
I don't blame you, PUNIKA. =(

Note that being afraid is basically a status in the game - rather like being frozen in the Pokemon games. However on the turn you 'stop being afraid' you still can't do anything. Yay broken moves!

http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/7298/pokemondiamond869.png
PUNKIA is quickly persuaded to join us.

I can't win TABASUKO. Aww. Like all the others he fades away after spouting his engrish.

http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/5754/pokemondiamond874.png
Oh well, maybe this set of stairs leads us closer to TABASUKO or the exit or something. As long as its not the way to Peach Boy. I might just eat that millet bun.

http://img861.imageshack.us/img861/1403/pokemondiamond876.png
Oh hey it's curry guy. I knew a politician was lurking about!

Why indeed? Wait, is this Bek saying this, questioning the fact that Mr Curry is suddenly here? Wow.

http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/5509/pokemondiamond881.pnghttp://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4953/pokemondiamond882.pnghttp://img34.imageshack.us/img34/209/pokemondiamond883.png

http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/8567/pokemondiamond887.pnghttp://img833.imageshack.us/img833/3342/pokemondiamond888.png
Ramble ramble and then a swear!

http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/6677/pokemondiamond889.png
Even Bek is shocked!

http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/994/pokemondiamond890.pnghttp://img831.imageshack.us/img831/7310/pokemondiamond891.png
I think Bek had enough of KAKUZATO.

http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/1420/pokemondiamond892.png
Our politician dislikes this allegation!

http://img852.imageshack.us/img852/2272/pokemondiamond897.pnghttp://img715.imageshack.us/img715/7857/pokemondiamond898.png
Either he's a wimp or TABASUKO said that she disliked curry. Oh well, we're almost there!

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/wheewalk.gif
That was quick! TABASUKO must be in the next room - let's see what she is doing!

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/jumpy1.gif

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/8711/pokemondiamond912.pnghttp://img705.imageshack.us/img705/7840/pokemondiamond913.png

One - he won the election in his hometown election. This redundancy is redundant!
Two - they're married/related!? Yet he is referred to as Mr NERIKARI so their names are different... uh.
Three - why should he be not underestimated anyways!?

http://img816.imageshack.us/img816/928/pokemondiamond941.png
...is it?

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/1263/pokemondiamond942.pnghttp://img840.imageshack.us/img840/1620/pokemondiamond943.pnghttp://img705.imageshack.us/img705/7710/pokemondiamond944.png

What is that supposed to mean? Is she referring to herself? Does she think Bek is evil? Or is Bek talking? Thing is he did not jump then aaaaaaaa.

This game is confusing.

http://img848.imageshack.us/img848/4877/pokemondiamond951.png
Good news - we currently have the advantage.

Bad news - if we can't knock out that snake before the others arrive it's a 2 vs 3 battle in her favour.

http://img860.imageshack.us/img860/3258/pokemondiamond952.png
Thanks for the advice!

She then jumps up and down a lot to place emphasis on this fact. You know, in case it wasn't obvious enough.

No, really, that's it from her in the game. But hey, we now have the key to the tree! Now we can go...somewhere else!

But that'll wait for the next update!

I really lol'd when osie used his attack. xD
And the grammar kinda confuses me at sometimes.

[Misheard Whisper]

Wow, you weren't kidding about the curry, huh?

I was laughing out loud most of the way through this, especially the recent parts. Engrish such as this offends me more than most, so I found it hilarious. I think the best part was the, ah . . . 'Glutinous millet bun'. My reaction was most similar to yours on that point.

Ah, glorious memories of playing this confusion-inducing game rushing back into my mind. How I cried tears of joy after beating this game. I really get a good laugh reading your LP. Keep it up :)

I guess it worked? But...why is the tree in a building anyway? True story - in my first ever playthrough I was terribly confused on where to go because of this fact - I made the mistake of looking for a tree like everyone said I should do. Key lesson - never trust anyone here!

As a beside, you may notice the screenshot is darker - Telefang has a day-night system! Not half-bad in fact.

Yes, such thoughts never occurred to myself either, tbh...

Hey, is that a ufo in the sky?

This is how switching your 'main e-monster' works. They get abducted by aliens and fly off only to be replaced by...wait a second...

GODDAMNIT I guess there's no getting around it - he wants his BOMB. =( And now we have a card that evolves stuff...

http://img808.imageshack.us/img808/4064/reform.gif
...Are you sure you want to evolve, stalker owl?

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/reform.gif
WHAT HAVE WE DONE!?

http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/6193/pokemondiamond1042.png
...wait, what?

After all that bugging it only gives you some experience. Sure, it sounds like he got a lot...then you look at the number at the top there and see that it gave him 24, possibly less if this one took part in any battles. =/ Enough to go up one level, but although some items do evolve creatures, this one did not.

This is stupid let's just go to Alice already.

Firstly, he refers to MUSA as a presbyter. If you don't know what that is:
Presbyter in the New Testament (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Testament) refers to a leader in local Christian congregations, then a synonym of episkopos (which has now come to mean bishop (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishop)).
Secondly...MUSA wants a propeller?

Also next update in a week at best because uni assessments everywhere. >_< On the flip side, the next part is basically the most memorable part of the game imo! I am sure many who have played the game before agree.

Is it just me or is this game a series of barely connected events occurring in something even native Engrish speakers would find hard to decipher?

So last off Bek was being a wuss and failing to escape from a sea e-monster because 'Nowhere to escape!'. Somehow.

http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/2416/pokemondiamond178.pnghttp://img594.imageshack.us/img594/3879/pokemondiamond179.png
Yes, Bek, yes it is.

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/530/pokemondiamond26.pnghttp://img863.imageshack.us/img863/148/pokemondiamond27.png

...So if we don't then we can't go swimming here.

Normally you'd have to go all the way back to first village to buy the 'game machine' for him. Luckily way back beyond the fourth wall in the 3rd part we already did that!

And then he disappears. Apparently we are supposed to call him to be able to go swimming.

http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/747/pokemondiamond210.png
They sure do. Then they swear at you, ask for presents and jump on them before giving you their phone number.

http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/6761/pokemondiamond211.png
Well screw you Not-Vaporeon, we can swim - err, walk in the ocean ourselves! Maybe we'll call you if we get in a battle.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 04_sea.mp3

The tune is not that great here, but oh well.

So people said the sea e-monsters were angry-

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/1618/pokemondiamond212.pnghttp://img714.imageshack.us/img714/861/pokemondiamond213.pnghttp://img705.imageshack.us/img705/6042/pokemondiamond214.png

http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/9191/pokemondiamond215.pnghttp://img703.imageshack.us/img703/1084/pokemondiamond216.png
But I don't even want a tree!

http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4751/pokemondiamond218.png
...well I guess a battle it is. Let's call that guy up then.

But Not-Sandslash, why did he say those things?

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/2796/pokemondiamond220.png
WHYYYYYYY

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2935/pokemondiamond221.png
Good retaliation, Not-Sandslash.

http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/5143/pokemondiamond222.png
Maybe he knows?

http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/4618/pokemondiamond223.pnghttp://img713.imageshack.us/img713/3410/pokemondiamond224.png
Sometime in battles, you'll get called by the creatures you call up, and they'll give you a message. For some reason it cuts short unless you mash the A button really quickly and have super-hyper-fast reading skills. The gist of it though is 'lol I'm going to be late' and they don't show up for a few more turns. Most annoying!

And this guy always does this. I bet he is too busy jumping on his game. >:[

http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/4485/pokemondiamond225.png
However Not-Sandslash is very good at killing sea (water) types, so these battles are easy.

http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/6718/pokemondiamond226.png
And then he disappears.

And...that's what happens in the sea. You walk about (because swimming is boring in the ocean), get shouted at by random monsters about trees and then they swear and shout 'remember it!'.

http://img863.imageshack.us/img863/9081/pokemondiamond227.png
And just to put the icing on the cake the bomb-loving guy decides to call me again! I'm not sure why I'm getting so many calls from him...

http://img863.imageshack.us/img863/4968/pokemondiamond228.pnghttp://img42.imageshack.us/img42/5218/pokemondiamond229.pnghttp://img545.imageshack.us/img545/6579/pokemondiamond230.png
My brain, it is melting.

http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/9521/pokemondiamond231.png
Luckily the wild random encounters (ie battles not caused by someone shouting at you) don't involve swearing.

http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/5711/pokemondiamond232.png
Translation - 'I accidentally the directions so I'm going to be late! :D'. Oh well, we can beat this guy too without-

http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/6158/pokemondiamond233.png
AAAAAAA

ARE YOU OKAY NOT-SANDSLASH

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/9939/pokemondiamond235.png
I can't blame you there.

What just happened is why Mantea is actually a pretty interesting e-monster. That move is called SHOUT which basically gives the status of (being) 'afraid' to the opponent which renders them unable to do anything.

Although the effect is only temporary...

http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/7835/pokemondiamond236.pnghttp://img847.imageshack.us/img847/792/pokemondiamond237.png
...that in itself takes up a whole turn. It's a nasty move, although wonderful if you abuse it yourself. =D

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/9200/pokemondiamond238.png
FINALLY whyever are you late!?

http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/9733/maflipper.png
Well then don't jump on your flipper next time, gosh.

What moves do you have anyway?
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/2512/pokemondiamond239.png
BITE does minor damage as this guy's attack sucks, COLDGAS is a lame status and RESUME is minor healing.

Well you're boring. We don't really need you anyways as Bek can apparently walk on water.

http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/8553/pokemondiamond242.png
Not-Sandslash can kill stuff in one hit anyway here!

http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/6370/pokemondiamond243.png
Oh hey he was also a high level AND gave us his phone number. Excellent. You are our new best friend, pink tentacle cow thing.

These sea e-monsters are not that bad after all!

Why won't you listen to me!? I don't want your stupid trees.

http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/6852/pokemondiamond251.png
Pointless trying to reason with these guys. This one is pretty poor defensively.

http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/3013/pokemondiamond254.png
I don't want to remember that! =(

http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/7573/pokemondiamond255.png
AAAAA GO AWAY

http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/7195/pokemondiamond257.pnghttp://img850.imageshack.us/img850/2228/pokemondiamond258.png
Overkill is always nice. (They don't even have 64 HP never mind 128).

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/456/pokemondiamond259.pnghttp://img163.imageshack.us/img163/187/pokemondiamond260.png
Yaaaaaay lots of stat boosts this time around.

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/8472/pokemondiamond261.png
Why does everyone keep saying that?

http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/4056/pokemondiamond262.png
You guys suck.

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/6902/pokemondiamond263.png
FISHMAN.

No, seriously, just look at that thing for a moment. Then turn away. Back to Fishman.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/6629/pokemondiamond308.png
Unfortunately, he's also weak.

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/7240/pokemondiamond266.png
And rude like the others.

Meanwhile in 'other reasons why MANTEA is cool'!

Essentially it can hide and avoid being hit for a turn or few. Kinda pointless if it's on its own as it can't attack during hiding, but potentially useful if you have it in a team and the opponent tried to attack it.

http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/631/pokemondiamond270.png
You suck, LILIAO(B). (Whyever it shortens their name in battles is beyond me).

Now, I COULD repeat what happened here over and over besides the interesting parts throughout this whole trip, or I could give you the condensed version of what happens.

I'm opting for the latter.

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/remembering-1.gif
This line sums up Bamu Sea basically!

So I spent a bit of time grinding. Not that I had much choice:

http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8516/pokemondiamond273.png

Some weren't very bright though.

After that straightforward battle though:

Wait, what? Well... let's do it!

SO EXCITING

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4651/pokemondiamond294.png
AOKUTERU! The...taller pink elephant tentacle thing!

More stats are gained with evolution and sometimes new/replaced/renamed moves. It's generally useful to have your creature evolve.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/7487/pokemondiamond299.png
What useful advice shall we get now?

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/9346/pokemondiamond300.pnghttp://img171.imageshack.us/img171/3719/pokemondiamond301.pnghttp://img716.imageshack.us/img716/5917/pokemondiamond302.png
...

http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/3743/pokemondiamond306.png
Now, at one point in THE SEA, you can go either right or left. The former leads you this this door (in the middle of the ocean mind you) which is locked. Oh well, time to backtrack a bit.

http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/1483/pokemondiamond311.png
During that we got this guy's help too!

http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/5857/pokemondiamond312.png
I can't say I know exactly how that works...

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/9571/pokemondiamond313.png
Going to the left leads you up to this guy.

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/3510/pokemondiamond314.png
Amazingly he doesn't ramble at you about forgetting pain from wounds and whatnot! This guy is basically the nicest guy you will meet here.

http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/2554/pokemondiamond316.pnghttp://img827.imageshack.us/img827/2786/pokemondiamond318.pnghttp://img148.imageshack.us/img148/7411/pokemondiamond319.png
Ignoring the fact that there's a tree in the middle of the ocean and the completely left-field-ness of this bit of news (what guy?), a bit of thought can possibly explain the ranting of everyone else - they naturally assume you were the guy who was going to go wood-chopping. For some reason.

http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/1338/pokemondiamond320.pnghttp://img638.imageshack.us/img638/8852/pokemondiamond321.pnghttp://img39.imageshack.us/img39/5283/pokemondiamond322.png
...and Bek seems to have a swollen ego now. T mildew if you remember is a term for people who use 'e-monsters well' - basically good trainers here. But Not-Sandslash has done all of the work, Bek, not you. Besides:

http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/4526/pokemondiamond174.pnghttp://img851.imageshack.us/img851/2830/pokemondiamond176.png
You're a coward Bek.

http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1057/pokemondiamond323.pnghttp://img508.imageshack.us/img508/2641/pokemondiamond324.png
Apparently the other guy, whoever he is, is pretty good. Not good news for Bek.

http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/1836/pokemondiamond325.png
At least Bek knows the right question to ask here.

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/8937/pokemondiamond326.png
The jump is for the fact this guy realises Bek has allowed himself to again be the hero of the day. What luck for him! You'd think Bek would have figured this out by now.

http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/4/pokemondiamond327.pnghttp://img849.imageshack.us/img849/1552/pokemondiamond328.pnghttp://img717.imageshack.us/img717/8827/pokemondiamond329.png
...so I guess that door has the tree behind it. But how do we unlock it? =/ Remember Bek, we don't have a key for it and it was certainly locked.

http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9228/pokemondiamond330.png
*facepalm*

http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/4205/pokemondiamond331.png
No, that's being lazy of you and also avoiding the issue. The 'usual way' is locked and you clearly don't have the key or you would have given it to us. Besides, this is a piece of cake!

http://bakingbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/whitecake1.JPG

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/piece_of_cake.mp3

http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/8665/pokemondiamond333.png
That showed him what a piece of cake was. Now tell us already what to do if you're too lazy to do it yourself already, without lying.

http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4436/pokemondiamond334.png
Oh, NOW he says it's difficult! How about that.

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/6826/pokemondiamond335.pnghttp://img41.imageshack.us/img41/3306/pokemondiamond336.png

Everyone depends on Bek - he is the world's buttmonkey!

Well I guess we should check out that house that needed a password then! To get to a cave...for some reason. This game sure likes to skip over the details.

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/5151/pokemondiamond349.pnghttp://img718.imageshack.us/img718/6501/pokemondiamond350.pnghttp://img32.imageshack.us/img32/1852/pokemondiamond351.png

But I was just in the sea!

Floating island...? Wait, I though you'd just take me to the place-

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/teleport-1.gif
And then Bek seriously trips out, as the onslaught of engrish finally takes its toll on him.




THE SEA is continued in the next update, whenever that'll be! Did that make much sense to anyone when the wound heal? You say it again! Remember it!

[bobandbill]

Aw, clearly nobody wanted to remember it. =p Ah well, here's the next part! Not that long but eh.

Part Eleven: Enter BOUNDARY
Or that guy with a really good theme tune who hates trees.


http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 35_teleportation.mp3

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/teleport-1.gif
Last we were teleporting away...somehow. Wherever shall we end up?

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/teleport2-1.gif
Oh, this place. I guess we can go into the cave there now!

http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/526/pokemondiamond382.png
A strange pot/button...thing is inside, next to a coffin? Huh. Jump on the button, Bek, maybe we can make a thing happen.

http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/7492/pokemondiamond384.png
http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai%20Denjuu%20Telefang%20-%2034_yayayay.mp3

Suddenly music! I'm not sure why it plays here and hardly anywhere else (if ever!) but...well, there it is.

http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/6596/pokemondiamond385.png http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8819/pokemondiamond386.png
I don't know how standing on a button makes the gate an ocean away open, but let's not question it! Let's go back outside then - standing on the coffin probably won't help us. (But who's telling us the gate is open...?)

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/2165/pokemondiamond388.png
Hell to you too, Sungki? You seem unsure of your name?

http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/3693/pokemondiamond390.png
No.

http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/3866/pokemondiamond391.pnghttp://img819.imageshack.us/img819/6324/pokemondiamond392.png
...And that's all Sungki wanted to say, and Bek doesn't even answer before the call ends. Abuh. I wanted to see Sungki's reaction to wikipedia saying Mildew is a type of fungus. =(

http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/5393/pokemondiamond393.png
LOOK SPARKLES

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/5241/pokemondiamond395.png
Standing on the magical sparkly island simply makes the teleportation sequence happen again and takes us to the beach.

http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/5831/pokemondiamond408.png
See? Not very exciting. Nor is the trip back to the antenna tree gate - I trust you remember what happened in the sea.

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/remembering-1.gif

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/6397/pokemondiamond409.png
Anyways, we get there and...the music cuts out. Huh. And then a phone call!

http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/6442/pokemondiamond410.png
"Sorry about hanging up before, I dropped the phone in a toilet."

Oh boy... Mr Bek, I like starting every sentence with your name. I'm also wondering why Sungki is using the plural there (you'll see why that's odd in a sec...) and how he knows this anyway! And "let's hide?" He's far away!

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/992/pokemondiamond415.png
Wait what?

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/811/pokemondiamond422.pnghttp://img844.imageshack.us/img844/9130/pokemondiamond424.png
And then this guy jumps off and lands.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 19_rival theme.mp3

Meet the rival!...Okay, well, "rival". He has one of the best music themes in the game though!

http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/9254/pokemondiamond425.pnghttp://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4177/pokemondiamond427.png
Well, hi there! I see your name is also partial to CAPITALISATION. (Why is Bek and Sungki immune to this?)

...wait, what? Okay I guess this is the guy who wants to chop down trees.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/8526/pokemondiamond433.png
Bek dislikes this!

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/1999/pokemondiamond434.pnghttp://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7950/pokemondiamond435.png
'What is it'? What is what, Bek?

In other words - 'we don't need these magical living portals to other parts of the world!' Or, well, we don't need thing like that anyway.

A real you!!

Then his e-monster lands. Not-Sandslash, why can't you fly?

http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/192/pokemondiamond466.pnghttp://img688.imageshack.us/img688/2047/pokemondiamond467.png
Woah suddenly perspective of the rival in an overly-pic fashion!

...Man, no offence, BOUNDARY, but... you ugly. =(

http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6371/pokemondiamond470.png
Also it does not match his sprite that vest-or-whatever was white and black. =/

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/3059/pokemondiamond471.png
This actually looks kinda cool though!

He's Knd Sky. y!

...Oh bugger that means he's strong against Not-Sandslash. He's also stronger than any of our monsters in level.

Time to point out a flaw in Telefang - despite having evolved pinky's name remains the same as his first stage's name...rather than this:
http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4651/pokemondiamond294.png
Anyways!

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 13_boss battle.mp3

The other two monsters arrive straightaway, and hence you might, with it being a 3-on-1 battle in our favour, think this will be an easy battle.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/8515/pokemondiamond480.png http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/5816/pokemondiamond481.png
Hahahaha....nope.

http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/3892/pokemondiamond482.pnghttp://img839.imageshack.us/img839/4868/pokemondiamond484.png
And despite having a type disadvantage, Not-Sandslash is the hardest-hitting out of the e-monsters on our side. Well bugger.

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3082/pokemondiamond486.pnghttp://img215.imageshack.us/img215/481/pokemondiamond488.png
And there goes him, because ANJIOSI is faster than everything else and thus can move twice before them at times!

http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/9915/pokemondiamond489.png
Luckily this guy is on our side - time to exploit the broken status system!

http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/2010/pokemondiamond490.pnghttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/683/pokemondiamond492.png
I can't say I blame him there for being afraid.

http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/1252/pokemondiamond493.png http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/4569/pokemondiamond494.png
Although he usually recovers the turn after, it takes the full turn...

http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/2673/pokemondiamond495.pnghttp://img20.imageshack.us/img20/9042/pokemondiamond496.png
Allowing BANLES - whatever it is - to attack...

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/shouting-1.gif
While we show that the best way to win a fight is to have a pink elephant-with-tentacle creature shout very loudly at the opponent!

http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/7928/pokemondiamond511.pnghttp://img21.imageshack.us/img21/6475/pokemondiamond512.png
Almost there!

http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/5708/pokemondiamond513.pnghttp://img196.imageshack.us/img196/6061/pokemondiamond515.png
Luckily pinky here is also surprisingly bulky.

http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/5179/pokemondiamond516.pnghttp://img84.imageshack.us/img84/1237/pokemondiamond517.png
Unfortunately, he manages to miss. With the attack 'hit'.

A few more misses and hits endured though, and:

\o/ I will say that I was kinda lucky that SHOUT worked as much as it had in the battle though - usually this is quite a tough battle (unless you specifically train some e-monsters which would have had a type advantage).

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/9257/pokemondiamond536.png
And then our opponent disappears, but not BOUNDARY.

http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/6604/pokemondiamond538.pnghttp://img843.imageshack.us/img843/9273/pokemondiamond539.png
Where's the full stop or exclamation mark? =(

http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/9816/pokemondiamond540.png
Bek agrees.

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/4654/pokemondiamond541.png
"Just over-sized strange looking creatures with phones!"

http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/2559/pokemondiamond542.png
This says something about Bek's other friends...

http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/6154/pokemondiamond544.png
BOUNDARY seems slow to catch on.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/3209/pokemondiamond545.pnghttp://img39.imageshack.us/img39/2343/pokemondiamond547.png
...Yes, you lose today.

http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/641/pokemondiamond548.png
Then he uses the tree to leave. I guess if he can't chop it down, he might as well use it? Anyways we now will not see Boundary for half a game. No, really. Great rival, huh?

http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/4473/pokemondiamond551.png
Bek realises BOUNDARY stole his wallet.

http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/1503/pokemondiamond552l.png
This is basically becoming a catch-phrase, isn't it.

http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/9301/pokemondiamond553.png
...But...okay, first he tells us that this guy was coming somehow and now goes back to 'durr hurr what's going on over there'.

http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/4439/pokemondiamond555.png
Bek has many more jumps to make in the future of this game. Many, many more.

Well it's not like we have anything better to do! Check out that name of the city btw... yeesh.


So concludes this part! The next contains a lot of shops and a competition! Excitement!

Great chapter it was a well worth read.

Great chapter it was a well worth read.
Glad you enjoyed!

Oh, and if the music files don't work please let me know because I couldn't check because of this ficky internet connection.

Part Twelve: The City of Shops
Or...well, a lot of shopping and acquiring the killer pony.


http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/5016/pokemondiamond569.png
Let's check out this place...

http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/4228/pokemondiamond572.png
You can tell when towns look the same to each other. Same sort of grass, path, etc so far for each one! It's also got the same overworld theme... although that's not necessarily bad because it's a catchy theme. And oh look, it's one of those politician people. =|

http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/5374/pokemondiamond575.pnghttp://img221.imageshack.us/img221/3876/pokemondiamond576.png
No Bek, don't talk to him it's a trap!

http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/7813/pokemondiamond578.png
>_<

http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/3776/pokemondiamond579.pnghttp://img163.imageshack.us/img163/7499/pokemondiamond580.png
Doesn't look like they gathered here.

http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/6355/pokemondiamond581.pnghttp://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4179/pokemondiamond582.png
Bek sure is excited about the fungi gathering! Notice how Not-Sandslash is keeping his distance from the two.

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/3242/pokemondiamond583.png
(What's the rule then?). Anyways, I don't think it's that funny. =/

http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/4667/pokemondiamond586.pnghttp://img23.imageshack.us/img23/9075/pokemondiamond587.pnghttp://img808.imageshack.us/img808/9363/pokemondiamond588.pnghttp://img715.imageshack.us/img715/861/pokemondiamond589.png
Screw the forest, we can have our large battles between creatures wherever we please! Although I am sceptical about having a telephone battle there. =/

http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/6955/pokemondiamond590.pnghttp://img851.imageshack.us/img851/2568/pokemondiamond592.png
...Come out?

http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/8460/pokemondiamond593.png
Maybe it just means 'jump'.

http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/4804/pokemondiamond594.pnghttp://img809.imageshack.us/img809/9426/pokemondiamond595.png
Well done for having that name? "Congratulations, you sure earned it."

http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/525/pokemondiamond597.pnghttp://img585.imageshack.us/img585/8498/pokemondiamond599.pnghttp://img200.imageshack.us/img200/7821/pokemondiamond600.png
This just comes off as weird personally, the way Bek is declaring his happiness. I bet it's this politician's fault. =(

http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/9913/pokemondiamond601.pnghttp://img202.imageshack.us/img202/9996/pokemondiamond602.pnghttp://img171.imageshack.us/img171/2746/pokemondiamond603.png
I like how he ignored the question.

http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/6815/pokemondiamond604.pnghttp://img62.imageshack.us/img62/4666/pokemondiamond605.png
Hmm, just maybe, Bek, just maybe...


http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/8986/pokemondiamond460.pnghttp://img576.imageshack.us/img576/3816/pokemondiamond20.pnghttp://img818.imageshack.us/img818/3869/pokemondiamond841.png
As a note, why do they have different coloured hats....?

However Bek stops dwelling on this and instead GOES SHOPPING. Because tbh there's not that much of interest here and the competition serves very little - well, nothing - to the confusing plot here.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 21_shopping.mp3
.
http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/8709/pokemondiamond606.png
A technology-themed store! Other gadgets include Video, Computer and Mouse. Not very interesting and one wonders why you can buy them when you cannot use them yourself.

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/9804/pokemondiamond610.pnghttp://img577.imageshack.us/img577/4618/pokemondiamond611.png
As a minor note, a red-hat guy now appears in the green-hat pollie's place! Abuh. But a phone call...?

http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/9263/pokemondiamond612.pnghttp://img135.imageshack.us/img135/1200/pokemondiamond613.png
...No, not really?

http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/2882/pokemondiamond614.pnghttp://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2111/pokemondiamond615.pnghttp://img17.imageshack.us/img17/9249/pokemondiamond616.png
They must be too busy telling Bek to get more friends or chasing political careers.

http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/6420/pokemondiamond617.pnghttp://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1593/pokemondiamond618.png
...STORM wants a computer. Right.

But how about that - look at a computer in a shop, and they call you about it just like with the bomb. This never happened before when I played the game, I'm pretty sure. =/

http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/5605/pokemondiamond619.pnghttp://img853.imageshack.us/img853/7148/pokemondiamond620.pnghttp://img35.imageshack.us/img35/3183/pokemondiamond622.png
Maybe Bek is not the only one who is SO HAPPY about a phone competition.

http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/3249/pokemondiamond623.pnghttp://img20.imageshack.us/img20/6382/pokemondiamond625.png
More engrish, please.

http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/3952/pokemondiamond626.pnghttp://img98.imageshack.us/img98/110/pokemondiamond627.pnghttp://img6.imageshack.us/img6/9691/pokemondiamond629.png
Great competition. But he doesn't quite tell the truth - everyone else in the competition just stands still and waits for you to battle. =/

Let's look at that other shop!

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/5605/pokemondiamond632.png
Ma-gun? Machine gun.

http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/7741/pokemondiamond636.png
This sure is a strange shop. Machine guns, Sabres...

http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/8156/pokemondiamond634.png
...Why is this in the shop.

http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/38/pokemondiamond633.png
MUSA probably already has one himself.

http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/215/pokemondiamond635.png
Yeah, I'll just buy these, thanks.

http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/2/pokemondiamond637.pnghttp://img204.imageshack.us/img204/376/pokemondiamond639.pnghttp://img820.imageshack.us/img820/392/pokemondiamond640.pnghttp://img810.imageshack.us/img810/6767/pokemondiamond641.png
Easy in what way? Did he give you the winnings?

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/8050/pokemondiamond643.pnghttp://img41.imageshack.us/img41/843/pokemondiamond644.pnghttp://img69.imageshack.us/img69/5794/pokemondiamond645.png
Rare things!? Like what, the Guide to Speaking English Good? Clearly this guy already has that because his sentence is all right, but the previous person...he needs it in this way.

http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/9941/pokemondiamond646.png
Yay pointless houses.

http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/8397/pokemondiamond647.pnghttp://img808.imageshack.us/img808/7637/pokemondiamond648.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/9954/pokemondiamond650.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/7509/pokemondiamond651.png

How specific.

http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/3200/pokemondiamond655.png
"With this, even you can be a ninja!"

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/5755/pokemondiamond656.png
Battery...for what?

http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/6497/pokemondiamond658.png
More of thes P-cards. They're actually good for grinding for exp later on in the game but not so much now.

http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/241/pokemondiamond657.png
I guess it's better than a shop selling machine guns...

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/4497/pokemondiamond659.pnghttp://img6.imageshack.us/img6/9719/pokemondiamond660.pnghttp://img228.imageshack.us/img228/3398/pokemondiamond661.png
The owl's name shows up again!

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/1811/pokemondiamond667.pnghttp://img560.imageshack.us/img560/3153/pokemondiamond668.pnghttp://img98.imageshack.us/img98/9184/pokemondiamond669.pnghttp://img225.imageshack.us/img225/9935/pokemondiamond670.png
Ah, the usual NPC-blocks-the-next-route ploy. With extra engrish. I guess we will over the competition before go ahead from here by pass through then.

http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/7554/pokemondiamond672.pnghttp://img827.imageshack.us/img827/6823/pokemondiamond673.png
And this guy confirms that that way being blocked is what we will go by after the competition. It takes us to Palan.

http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/116/pokemondiamond677.png
Thanks, random e-monster!

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/5774/pokemondiamond678.png
Boy I sure am excited by these phone calls.

http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/9779/pokemondiamond679.pnghttp://img823.imageshack.us/img823/5112/pokemondiamond680.pnghttp://img577.imageshack.us/img577/5875/pokemondiamond681.png
I bet he's a advertiser. Not a very convincing feature for a new phone though - that's it?

As for the fourth shop:
http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7752/pokemondiamond685.pnghttp://img19.imageshack.us/img19/3984/pokemondiamond686.png
I hope it's just a toy crane. You know, instead of a real one... Actually a real one would be kinda cool to have. Unfortunately the tire is as big as the crane. At least these are named normally, but...

http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/277/pokemondiamond687.png
What the frell is a Tsita.

http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/3181/pokemondiamond688.png
So much for moon rock or stone or whatnot - no, the translation is Luna.

One would be forgiven for forgetting this is a game about making monsters fight for you by getting their phone number.

Nobody else says anything of interest here and so we go into the forest!

http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/5238/pokemondiamond694.pnghttp://img684.imageshack.us/img684/6099/pokemondiamond695.pnghttp://img197.imageshack.us/img197/2573/pokemondiamond696.png
So much for taking a shortcut. At least the Engrish here is consistent...?

Now, you can encounter wild e-monsters here before taking on the competitors (which helps because they can come to the battle straightaway instead of 2-3 turns or more to just arrive. Grinding is a good idea though because of one specific wild e-monster who will mess you up badly without some grinding but is the best friend to have.

To demonstrate!

http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/1835/pokemondiamond697.pnghttp://img685.imageshack.us/img685/3781/pokemondiamond699.png
They're of the land type and have no mercy.

http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/4651/pokemondiamond701.pnghttp://img594.imageshack.us/img594/7565/pokemondiamond702.png
So you start the battle with having to wait for your other two e-monsters.

http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/274/pokemondiamond703.pnghttp://img233.imageshack.us/img233/7571/pokemondiamond704.png
It's faster than you.

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/pain.gif
Its attack animation is always fun to watch. (It looks far better than this gif).

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/9849/pokemondiamond705.png
Bam, half your health.

So how much damage can you do to it?


http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/pain.gifhttp://img818.imageshack.us/img818/4272/pokemondiamond712.png
Even if its defences aren't that great it doesn't matter.

It also has access to a move called GRIND which is basically the same as SHOUT is if ever you don't feel like just winning straightaway it can just status you instead.

So yeah, grinding is needed! (You have little access to type advantages over it too. Of course one could just use a really fast one to be able to run away from it in battles, but that's no fun).

http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/7417/pokemondiamond713z.png
Stop interrupting my grinding.

http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/2370/pokemondiamond714.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/9346/pokemondiamond715.png
Ah, it's 'inane questions time'! Let's say yes.

http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/2274/pokemondiamond716.pnghttp://img833.imageshack.us/img833/8540/pokemondiamond717.png
See, that statement makes no sense! Neither do the options! AAAAA

http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/186/pokemondiamond719.png
Thanks... I guess? Selecting the first option to both apparently was the right thing to do!

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/7378/pokemondiamond730.pnghttp://img20.imageshack.us/img20/7623/pokemondiamond731.pnghttp://img405.imageshack.us/img405/273/pokemondiamond732.pnghttp://img810.imageshack.us/img810/2796/pokemondiamond733.png
I like how he's telling me about an item that won't do anything.

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/4579/pokemondiamond734.pnghttp://img855.imageshack.us/img855/7648/pokemondiamond735.png
Well, who wouldn't want a ray gun?

http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/4356/pokemondiamond736.png
"Why do you keep calling me?" and "Now I want a ray gun."

During said grinding I had a few more encounters, one which involved me getting it down to 1 HP from a critical hit only for it to run away. But then:

http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/9407/pokemondiamond743.png
And so:

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/8211/pokemondiamond720.png
And with some luck:

http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/4602/pokemondiamond745.png
Yay! And if you think MLP is awesome:

Not shown - a walking-around-the-clearing sequence. And why is it 'call me' when you're standing a metre apart from each other. Kids these days...

http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/4059/pokemondiamond766.png
This battle stars tree trunks and some water.

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/8808/pokemondiamond767.png
The only place where we get lots of unique trainer sprites! As a note - they get weirder.

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 11_normal battle.mp3

(The game doesn't consider the competition battles to be that important apparently).

http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/2301/pokemondiamond769.pnghttp://img202.imageshack.us/img202/387/pokemondiamond770.png
Normally the type-disadvantage would be a worry.

http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/1749/pokemondiamond772.png
And so ends the battle.

http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/8898/pokemondiamond775.png

One down.

There's other wild e-monsters of note - maybe not power-wise, but say:

WHAT IS IT

Whatever he is, he's pretty smart!

http://img546.imageshack.us/img546/5254/pokemondiamond788.png
For thos who do not know: "The oxter is the part of the human body right under the joint where the arm joins the shoulder." Pity wikipedia had to mention 'human body' because this surely isn't human. =(

http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5214/pokemondiamond795.png
No, you just look weird.

http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/3927/pokemondiamond796.png
Ah, the owl as mentioned!

Not-Sandslash sure is enjoying this.

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/5832/pokemondiamond801.png
And now he's about to become more useful!

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/evolving-2.gifhttp://img534.imageshack.us/img534/7097/pokemondiamond811.png
I like how the only changes are a few more spikes, some shield-things to his arms, a bit more weight and the B changed to a P. At least BigMon is accurate! Dos this make Not-Sandslash Slightly-More-Not-Sandslash?

They seem oddly happy about losing.

I'll just end it here then - the rest of the competition shall be covered in the next update!

Oh the joys of engrish! The music files work with out a hitch.

Oh the joys of engrish! The music files work with out a hitch.Hurrah - I thought they should work as I already used them but one never knows when you cannot test it. =(

Next part maybe in the next before days before uni because I already have the pictures.

Part Thirteen: The Continued Competition
Or seeing how weird some trainer sprites get.


http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/40/pokemondiamond816.png
Last off we beat the 2nd person and Not-Sandslash evolved and got a bit of weight and a P to his name. Onwards to more victory!

Surprisingly it is a water type and so ends the quickest third round ever.

Okay, thanks for telling me - I'll be sure not to give him that.

...Sorry that you're sick? Just don't sneeze on me.

http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/9254/pokemondiamond872.png
And this part of the comp is where the trainer sprites get especially weird. I mean, look at him. And he's called NOISY as well...

What him riding a tiny car has to do with him having 'got a cold' though is beyond me.

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/1945/pokemondiamond875.png
Naturally his first e-monster is the one that looks like a beheaded monkey. =(

He also walks away unlike his sprite suggesting he has a car I don't even. =/

Encountered this guy in the wild but I did not get his number. I kinda like his look though.

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/6239/pokemondiamond886.png
Wait, why are there two people here?

So... the T fungi gentlemen the top alternates...to what?

http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/994/pokemondiamond890.png
Fine I'll let you finish.

What, that's it? Okay, can do!

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/2742/pokemondiamond894.png
Why are you still jumping.

http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/3069/pokemondiamond895.pnghttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/8913/pokemondiamond896.png
Uh...who are you talking to?

http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/2272/pokemondiamond897.png
WHY DO YOU KEEP JUMPING

So are we to fight...?

http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/9616/pokemondiamond901.png
aaaaaaaaaaaaa

http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/4295/pokemondiamond902.png
...So you're reporters? Reporters in uncomfortable poses?

I...I don't understand.

http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/4119/pokemondiamond904.png
Why does this bird's leg not actually attach to the body correctly what.

Now, this battle actually is harder because they have more than one e-monster at the start! =o

http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/2535/pokemondiamond906.png
I kinda feel sorry for the poor thing.

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/PETALS.gif
And then it fires petals or...something at me. =/ It's very fast but that's basically it, besides the type advantage thing.

http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/3267/pokemondiamond907.pnghttp://img190.imageshack.us/img190/6537/pokemondiamond908.png
Strangest looking 'mouth' attack there...it also should have attacked Not-Sandslash but I'm not complaining about bad AI!

http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/5592/pokemondiamond921.png
Now, this is a neat move here. It doesn't do that much damage, but it has a decent chance of this:

http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/1968/pokemondiamond923.png
And it can't do anything until it heals itself - like being scared from Shout. And that takes up an entire turn in itself!

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/8185/pokemondiamond926.pnghttp://img834.imageshack.us/img834/4350/pokemondiamond927.png
See?

http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/1830/pokemondiamond928.png
Yeah, while you're there...

http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/1797/pokemondiamond929.png
Somehow it survives!

Not for long though.

http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/1349/pokemondiamond933.png
Go!, says the OSIE, as it raises its defence. =/

http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/5199/pokemondiamond938.png
Oh no it's doing something!

http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/6222/pokemondiamond939.png
It looks like it could be-

http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/928/pokemondiamond941.pnghttp://img39.imageshack.us/img39/1263/pokemondiamond942.png

Two questions with the same answer:

WINNING.

http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/8727/pokemondiamond961.png
Or jumping if you're Bek, I guess.

http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/7476/pokemondiamond962.png
So winning.

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9910/pokemondiamond963.pnghttp://img24.imageshack.us/img24/8287/pokemondiamond964.png
Bek... at this stage everyone here is being called T Mildew. =(

I wonder why this guy stayed here. I mean, if he walks in, he would win!

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/6628/pokemondiamond968.png
Instead he prefers jumping at Bek.

http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/9668/pokemondiamond971.pnghttp://img829.imageshack.us/img829/3168/pokemondiamond972.png
What a...strange looking guy.

http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/3218/pokemondiamond973.png
This guy is an evolution of OSIE.

No, really.

http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/600/pokemondiamond974.png
3-on-2 battle initially so it's kinda in our favour, although you'd think with this being the final battle it may be harder than the previous.

http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/8896/pokemondiamond976.png
Oh wait.

http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/573/pokemondiamond977.png
How about...

Winning.

http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/6726/pokemondiamond986.pnghttp://img193.imageshack.us/img193/7371/pokemondiamond988.png
No, buy your own alcohol to drown your own sorrows away! I'm too busy winning.

http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/1038/pokemondiamond990.png

http://img807.imageshack.us/img807/4797/pokemondiamond994.png
Damn straight, Bek.

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2192/pokemondiamond995.pnghttp://img13.imageshack.us/img13/711/pokemondiamond996.png
...Yes, we've already realised.

http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/6144/pokemondiamond997.png
THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!

http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/8133/pokemondiamond999.png

I guess that'll be in the next update thanks to Netaro here. (Hey, isn't he supposed to be delivering water anyway...?)

[ChaosJester083]

I don't know I understood any of the new development in the plot at all but I want to play this game. I don't know why though but I do think it is because I really want to play game boy games recently. Anyways this was a great part but the first music file didn't work

I don't know I understood any of the new development in the plot at all but I want to play this game. I don't know why though but I do think it is because I really want to play game boy games recently. Anyways this was a great part but the first music file didn't workI was a young child when I was trying to understand it myself. XD

And odd about that, seeing it's the same coding as the one in the previous update. =/ But now it works after replacing it with the exact same thing!

Also have another update.

Part Fourteen: Entering The Desert!
Or discovering that birds and snakes don't like each other.


http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/5740/pokemondiamond01.png
So last time we won the competition and Netaro finally stopped talking to us. Let's get out of this unfortunately-named 'city'. Or M-City.

http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/8292/pokemondiamond03.png
...And we begin with someone (maybe Bek?) shouting about what. Damn it! I hate whats. >:[

http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/667/pokemondiamond04.png
Maybe it was this bird though.

Two - oh god. 'start a new life in Virgina'.

At least it's clear what you should do here, but first we'll explore this little stretch.
Head into the ocean for instance, and...

http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/8163/pokemondiamond36.png
...We find ourselves by Bamu sea! Or well, outside its barriers. Let's check that map now that we have filled it in a bit...

http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/7180/pokemondiamond44.png
So M-city is to the west of the sea and Alice, while Tulunk and Kelina is on the left side of the map. Teleporting trees, how do they work.

http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/4097/pokemondiamond42.png
...How exciting? =/ There's nothing in the water at any rate.

http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/5919/pokemondiamond47.pnghttp://img64.imageshack.us/img64/5868/pokemondiamond48.pnghttp://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5558/pokemondiamond49.png

Okay...? Maybe that's why this guy is standing outside of it then.

http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/5737/pokemondiamond52.png
But first a slight detour to a house I recall.

http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/7310/pokemondiamond53.png
Or well, cave-house. At any rate idk why it's here but I suppose it is worth showing.

http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/4981/pokemondiamond54.png
Why is that, random NPC?

I never said that. =/

Anyways I also discovered some different e-monsters in this area I didn't know were here before.

http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/3315/pokemondiamond70.pnghttp://img683.imageshack.us/img683/40/pokemondiamond71.png
Like this guy! If you want awkward designs, look no further than HERIOPS. Unfortunately i didn't get his number in that instance.

http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/1881/pokemondiamond72.pnghttp://img855.imageshack.us/img855/7060/pokemondiamond73.png
I got bird-head's number though!

http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/1148/pokemondiamond76.png
So in other words it pecks stuff.

Other creatures included some ones we have also seen before:

With BAIBU:
http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/3683/pokemondiamond81.pnghttp://img823.imageshack.us/img823/2152/pokemondiamond82.png

And after a while:
http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/6500/pokemondiamond83.pnghttp://img27.imageshack.us/img27/5167/pokemondiamond85.png
...A bottle in its shoulder? Uh.

I could switch to BAZERI and make the game very easy (except in sections with necessary grinding) but I'll be sticking with Not-Sandslash.

http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/1314/pokemondiamond139.pnghttp://img854.imageshack.us/img854/8985/pokemondiamond140.png
Yes, you sure are a bird brain.

http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/4489/pokemondiamond141.png
Bek doesn't like my jokes. =(

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/2263/pokemondiamond142.pnghttp://img811.imageshack.us/img811/5470/pokemondiamond143.png
Blah Blah Bek then proceeds to repeat what Gangbanao said.

http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/9853/pokemondiamond149.pnghttp://img7.imageshack.us/img7/4442/pokemondiamond150.pnghttp://img32.imageshack.us/img32/307/pokemondiamond151.pnghttp://img543.imageshack.us/img543/6550/pokemondiamond152.png
Yeah, we kinda figured that out for ourselves...

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/8484/pokemondiamond154.pnghttp://img97.imageshack.us/img97/8202/pokemondiamond155.png
...That's a good question!

...

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/4871/pokemondiamond157.pnghttp://img847.imageshack.us/img847/8831/pokemondiamond158.png
So basically they're having a big war and nobody remembers why.

What.

http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/7543/pokemondiamond159.png
Bek also thinks this is stupid.

http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5337/pokemondiamond161.pnghttp://img29.imageshack.us/img29/4654/pokemondiamond162.pnghttp://img812.imageshack.us/img812/6497/pokemondiamond163.pnghttp://img703.imageshack.us/img703/1946/pokemondiamond164.png

Everyone loves making Bek do stuff for them.

http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/9725/pokemondiamond173.png
Silly Bek.

But at least we get something from it? I hope it's better than the last prize. =/

Let's see what everyone else thinks of our plans.

Oh look, snakes! Time to begin Operation FRIENDSHIP!

[ChaosJester083]

Teleporting trees, how do they work.

My guess is like magnets!

Anyways great chapter really enjoyed this one and the engrish.

That's a good guess. =p

Cheers again for the comment! Anyone else out there? =p

And another update yay. Highly stupid events are contained! No, really. Anyways this current section should be wrapped up by this and the following update so let's see what happens.

Part Fifteen: Bearer of Peace!
Or fighting people to convince them to stop fighting. Go figure!

Oh look a battle!

http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/3219/pokemondiamond29.png
Wait you're not a bird or a snake.

http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/8737/pokemondiamond30.png
TAMPAL is confused by the lack of snake.

http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/9919/pokemondiamond31.pnghttp://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u156/lennyshanks/scratch.gif

What is this 'machine monster'!? Is it stuff from their shop? Or maybe if it is considered a pal of theirs...


http://nicholnl.wcp.muohio.edu/DingosBreakfastClub/DippyBird/DippyMovies/Dippymovie.gif
The scary thing is this wouldn't look too out-of-place as a Telefang monster...


http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/3855/pokemondiamond51.png
Or maybe the owl is the machine monster. =/

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/5737/pokemondiamond52.png

Ah, here engrish starts to take a turn for the worse in this part. Because if you look...

http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/580/pokemondiamond66.png
...you can't go to the left. The house is actually to the right. =| What do you have to say for yourself?

No... 'I' may go there. You can just stay here, stupid snake. =(

'Things like mankind'? =/ Sure, Bek isn't good looking by far, but that's harsh.

http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/5894/pokemondiamond80.png
Now you hurt his feelings.

http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/1/pokemondiamond88.png
Obviously not. =(

http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/3972/pokemondiamond89.pnghttp://img600.imageshack.us/img600/4920/pokemondiamond92.png
Oversized snake, go! And yes - we really are having a battle because the snake fails at listening.

http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/1237/pokemondiamond93.png
Despite a lack of proper grinding, three against one ain't so bad, even if pony of awesome has a type disadvantage.

http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/8449/pokemondiamond94.png
Oh wait this is kinda awkward.

http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/8360/pokemondiamond96.pnghttp://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8782/pokemondiamond97.png
And so BOZUARU decides to aim his strongest attack at the bird. Only it takes several turns to charge, and it's not a good idea to use it when you're outnumbered. And so:

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/4807/pokemondiamond98.pnghttp://img845.imageshack.us/img845/5513/pokemondiamond99.png

Delaying the supermegaawesomeattack is fun. =D

But you know what else is fun?

Either he's all 'why I no win' or 'why nobody else help me'. Note also that we called TAMPAL (you know, the bird) to come and help. He got past the guards and all with no problem. =|

http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/213/pokemondiamond124.png
Bek says SCREW THE RULES he has jumping.

But...I mean- There's a war- a toy- oh I get it it's a joke. Right?

http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/6550/pokemondiamond152.png
You're serious, aren't you.

http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/6550/pokemondiamond152.png
Can we reconsider?

http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/259/pokemondiamond153.png
Ladies and Gentlemen; this is why this is a stupid part of the game.

(Wonder what [Toy] was in Japanese though?)

http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/8484/pokemondiamond154.png
Well the snake leader is a prat.

And now for the game to get confusing!

http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/8202/pokemondiamond155.pnghttp://img231.imageshack.us/img231/8161/pokemondiamond156.png
This implies that the bird here has it and all, right?

http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/4871/pokemondiamond157.pnghttp://img718.imageshack.us/img718/8831/pokemondiamond158.png

...Come again?

HE TOOK IT OKAY JUST GO GET IT.

And if you talk to him again:
http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/8884/pokemondiamond167.pnghttp://img695.imageshack.us/img695/9134/pokemondiamond168.png
...yeah. =/ It's like it's both badly translated AND out of place or...something. =/

Anyways at least we know what we have to do. I guess.

http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8240/pokemondiamond169.pnghttp://img684.imageshack.us/img684/6973/pokemondiamond170.png

Anyways basically what you have to do is backtrack to the cave at the end of the phone competition.

ON THE WAY THERE

APPARENTLY 'WELL' WAS THE WRONG ANSWER TOO WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT IT

http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/3212/pokemondiamond175.png
AND oh look we found him that was easy.

Obtaining [Toy] in next part! Excite get!

[bobandbill]

Part Sixteen: Get [Toy] From [Badly named city]!
Or a fight that shows I should do some grinding.


http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/3212/pokemondiamond175.png
Let's get that [Toy] already.

No.

...Okay, yes, but not just to pass the time.

http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/5963/pokemondiamond180.png
Yes, also to jump.

http://img849.imageshack.us/img849/5083/pokemondiamond181.pnghttp://img231.imageshack.us/img231/7977/pokemondiamond182.png
Good e-monsters best friends.

http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/3381/pokemondiamond183.png
Truly a good reason to rejoice with a jump.

http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/619/pokemondiamond184.png
Punching the snake leader in the face seemed to work wonders!

http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/1956/pokemondiamond185.pnghttp://img220.imageshack.us/img220/3931/pokemondiamond186.png

http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/5088/pokemondiamond187.pnghttp://img838.imageshack.us/img838/7348/pokemondiamond188.png
And why is toy capitalised?

http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/4331/pokemondiamond190.png
So he has it! ...Maybe.

http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/1598/pokemondiamond191.pnghttp://img18.imageshack.us/img18/5/pokemondiamond192.png

Okay, let's think about this for a moment. All we need is a lousy toy to end a very long, likely bloody, war. And this fellow doesn't want to give up his toy because he only has one.

No wonder you guys had the war in the first place!

http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/3512/pokemondiamond200.png
What wait

http://h1.ripway.com/bobandbill/Keitai Denjuu Telefang - 13_boss battle.mp3

Unfortunately... there's three things to note about the flaming bird here.

One - his superior level.

Two - he's far faster than anyone on my team, and has a far better attack than his prevolution.

Three - Only a two-on-one battle here.

http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/1671/pokemondiamond247.png
I do have a pony though so let's try beating him without any grinding beforehand whatsoever!

Not as cool a move as Fly in the Pokemon games... but it's far more annoying. Any moves directed at him won't hit while he is flying, and he can come down at any time and attack straightaway. More annoying in multi-monster battles though.

http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/2228/pokemondiamond258.png
He sure is.

http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/456/pokemondiamond259.pnghttp://img43.imageshack.us/img43/187/pokemondiamond260.png
So I guess I can only go for the boost-attack-option then.

http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/8472/pokemondiamond261.png
Wait what?

Basically, this means my stat-boosting move failed, and I assume it's because KAOTES managed to stop it.

But how is that possible with a stat-boosting move, and especially when the opponent is flying far away at the moment? =/ Then again it could be just poor engrish yet again.

http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/4056/pokemondiamond262.pnghttp://img695.imageshack.us/img695/6902/pokemondiamond263.png
Well uh... as grind will also fail and RESUME is the healing move (pointless as I've taken no damage yet), I'll just go for ultra-super-mega-awesome move that takes a while to charge up. Hopefully KAOTES isn't flying when that is ready!

http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/783/pokemondiamond264.pnghttp://img571.imageshack.us/img571/2966/pokemondiamond265.png
'e-magic' sure sounds fishy. Anyways, when that DP meter is fully charged up, the attack will fire.

Kinda impressive that Not-Sandslash survived that hit actually given the level difference and the type disadvantage.

http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/8594/pokemondiamond269.pnghttp://img40.imageshack.us/img40/631/pokemondiamond270.pnghttp://img171.imageshack.us/img171/1561/pokemondiamond271.png

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/8382/pokemondiamond272.pnghttp://img42.imageshack.us/img42/8516/pokemondiamond273.png
Type difference sure has a significant impact here.

http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/1292/pokemondiamond274.pnghttp://img849.imageshack.us/img849/452/pokemondiamond275.png
What a mean game. =( I finally land a hit on a monster that can make two moves for every one I make and it calls me foolish.

Intresting, and the dialogues confuse me more and more because of improper grammar ingame... ;-;
It just keeps being confusing throughout the whole darn game! =p Although atm we've gone through some notable instances already...

Next part next week at the earliest because of uni and other life stuff. =/ It'll involve telemarketers!

[bobandbill]

Okay.

After multiple attempts to make an update post only for it to fail constantly for various reasons, I'l just going to stick to shorter updates from now on. I can't keep putting in an ahour to an hour and half of time into this only for it all to be lost. =| It's really darn frustrating. I had to replay this part three times too because of issues with the save in the first place, so this is even more annoying for myself. Kinda sick of Liz Island now. But I'll still try to get updates up, and a bit faster when uni ends too. (And shorter updates likely mean faster output too as I may be more inclined to sit for say half an hour to c+p pictures rather than longer as I usually do).

Also ripway has the decency to explode for over a day and this isn't the first time it's given me roblems either. Does anyone know of any reliable music hosting sites that'll work with the tags? Using a different site now in upload-mp3.com now. Note previous updates still won't have working music files until I change them all, but this update has...something?

Part Seventeen: Attack of the Telemarketers!
Or more requests for help from lazy people.

That's a good question actually. Why does Miyor suddenly have a house?

Bek wisely decides to back away slowly. Although it comes off as a bit odd to do in the middle of this conversation...

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg683/scaled.php?server=683&filename=pokemondiamond94.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg851/scaled.php?server=851&filename=pokemondiamond95.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg135/scaled.php?server=135&filename=pokemondiamond96.png&res=medium
Worth a shot I guess. I mean, given that we suddenly need to find such a e-monster and then suddenly bump into an old character, they must know something useful!

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg844/scaled.php?server=844&filename=pokemondiamond97.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg836/scaled.php?server=836&filename=pokemondiamond98.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg153/scaled.php?server=153&filename=pokemondiamond99.png&res=medium

Of course, it begs the question - why didn't Miyor call this fellow up to save the day already anyways? =/

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg163/scaled.php?server=163&filename=pokemondiamond103.png&res=medium
~!*one boring phone call later...*!~

Either Miyor began speaking in the middle of this after Bek started, or she talked to herself at the start. =/

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg189/scaled.php?server=189&filename=pokemondiamond114.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg26/scaled.php?server=26&filename=pokemondiamond115.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg832/scaled.php?server=832&filename=pokemondiamond116.png&res=medium
And as quickly as the logic at the start of this game, she leaves.


That concludes this uneventful update! Before backtracking to Alice though we'll explore some more of Liz Island next time.

This LP is so rofloving.

Speaking of which, about time I updated this.

Part Eighteen: The Wonders of Liz Island!
Or some truly terrifying e-monster designs and stories.


So last off, Miyor told us about their friend in Alice that could make the bad telemarketers go away.

Naturally, I choose to explore Liz Island instead.

Time to walk in the water surronding the island then as we can't go in the woods yet.

Selected part (sorta bottom left if you can see it) is the cursor on part of Liz Island with the water around it surronding the forest part we cannot yet access. Above is the first village with MUSA and to the left the second. Alice is all the way on the right with Palan next to it, and M-City Virginia is in-between it and Liz Island. (hurr hurr)

Basically - the world is arranged like a toddler's attempt at tetris.

A considerly less scary attack in which some...smoke-looking thing appears for half a second? Nonetheless, WAMITE (which is btw imo what they should have called the new Vegemite) dislikes it.

HURRAH much love for bootleg Diamond. <3 I bought this many years ago from a flea market. I knew it wasn't a real Pokemon game (the seller sure did, lol). I think $30 was too much for it, but meh.

Besides the glitches and bad Engrish, 'Diamond' is a really good game! I find it to be very innovative. Let's see... I loved Kuribute, Nejiro, Liliaob, Kaotes, Doria, Raygirth (stingray, Kokia's evo), and Baibu. ^_^; Anyways, you're right where I got to in my first file before I got stuck. I'll keep an eye on your LP to see the rest of the game. :D

As for the T-Mildew thing, it's basically a Pokemon Master:
A human who befriends Denjū and participates in battles is originally referred to as a T-Fanger (Tファンガー T fangā?), but called a T-Mildew in the bootleg.

Remember it! -disappears and leaves a bomb-

I think $30 was too much for it, but meh. Try something like ~ $20 in australia (ages ago mind when it was way cheaper than the US) and with Pokemon Crystal. =D
Let's see... I loved Kuribute, Nejiro, Liliaob, Kaotes, Doria, Raygirth (stingray, Kokia's evo), and Baibu. ^_^; Baibu (and on that note, its similiar but cooler evolutions!) is the shizz.
As for the T-Mildew thing, it's basically a Pokemon Master:
A human who befriends Denjū and participates in battles is originally referred to as a T-Fanger (Tファンガー T fangā?), but called a T-Mildew in the bootleg.
Remember it! -disappears and leaves a bomb-
T-fanger sounds so much cooler.

Oh hey I'm wondering about that too! I doubt answering these inane questions 'correctly' makes you bigger, so...

And whose fault is that, hmm? I suppose by close they mean closer in terms of friendship rather than physical distance though... oh dear, that's a horrid thought given what sort of creatures may try to come 'close'. -_-

At any rate, time to make use of the shops in this town! Already pretty underleveled and later on this will only be worse, so I might as well grind. However, there is a way to make grinding easier!

Step one: Obtain P-card.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg249/scaled.php?server=249&filename=pokemondiamond75.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg683/scaled.php?server=683&filename=pokemondiamond76.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg834/scaled.php?server=834&filename=pokemondiamond77.png&res=medium
Step two: talk to this person play blah reform evolution with P-card.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg830/scaled.php?server=830&filename=pokemondiamond78.png&res=medium
Step three: get exp and repeat once more!

And step four is to have a single battle, and you level up. 2 P-cards give you half the exp of your current level, making it an amazing item. So soon enough I get Kuribute to the 30s.

Funny in the way that makes my brain bleed.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg594/scaled.php?server=594&filename=pokemondiamond92.png&res=medium
'No' is pretty funny.

Yes. But hang on, how was he going to break it anyway? Chainsaw? His e-monster? Mashing his face into it?

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg163/scaled.php?server=163&filename=pokemondiamond119.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg405/scaled.php?server=405&filename=pokemondiamond120.png&res=medium

YOU DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg692/scaled.php?server=692&filename=pokemondiamond136.png&res=medium
Oh hey I think I found the guy we're looking for.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg405/scaled.php?server=405&filename=pokemondiamond137.png&res=medium
Seriously what kind of name is Jinxi anyways.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg534/scaled.php?server=534&filename=pokemondiamond138.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg266/scaled.php?server=266&filename=pokemondiamond139.png&res=medium
Bek refuses to answer and continues the conversation.

Yes, your power of standing in the corner will surely send everyone running!

Everyone talks funny?

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg192/scaled.php?server=192&filename=pokemondiamond152.png&res=medium
Oh yeah, that rule. 'Resolve everything with fighting'.

NOOO THE BLACK SQUARES

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg21/scaled.php?server=21&filename=pokemondiamond156.png&res=medium
WHY ARE YOU CALLED JINXI WHEN YOU ARE REALLY RANBRAGE

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg411/scaled.php?server=411&filename=pokemondiamond157.png&res=medium
Note the high level. He's not very strong in attack, but he DOES have an attack with a high chance of paralysing in Needle, making him very hard for your team of mid-20s. That is if you don't abuse P-cards beforehand.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg200/scaled.php?server=200&filename=pokemondiamond158.png&res=medium
Come, McBird! Observe a one-hit kill.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg511/scaled.php?server=511&filename=pokemondiamond160.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg839/scaled.php?server=839&filename=pokemondiamond161.png&res=medium
No no, you're not killed yet, Not-JINXI. Wait a moment!

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg543/scaled.php?server=543&filename=pokemondiamond162.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg52/scaled.php?server=52&filename=pokemondiamond166.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg33/scaled.php?server=33&filename=pokemondiamond167.png&res=medium
Oh fine. You managed to make your super-duper attack stronger.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg832/scaled.php?server=832&filename=pokemondiamond168.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg402/scaled.php?server=402&filename=pokemondiamond169.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg12/scaled.php?server=12&filename=pokemondiamond170.png&res=medium
Now, wasn't that fun? Yay type advantages!

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg213/scaled.php?server=213&filename=pokemondiamond175.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg441/scaled.php?server=441&filename=pokemondiamond176.png&res=medium
I already did!

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg269/scaled.php?server=269&filename=pokemondiamond177.png&res=medium
Str for STRONG.

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg580/scaled.php?server=580&filename=pokemondiamond178.png&res=mediumhttp://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg685/scaled.php?server=685&filename=pokemondiamond179.png&res=medium
This text is pointless!

http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg829/scaled.php?server=829&filename=pokemondiamond180.png&res=medium
And then he disappears.

Hurrah for that though! Now we can go back to Liz Island in the next update.

An announcement!


Imageshack kindly screwed me over by announcing out of nowhere that one cannot have over 500 images on a free account and the rest will be removed by the start of march. I've over 3000, and most of those images are for this LP. WHOOOOPS.

However! I've coded up something that would make replacing the majority of the image urls much less painful for myself as long as I reupload said images with a consistent naming scheme for the urls, so most likely I will continue this after I repost the previous parts in a new LP thread with those images. (And if you have the same problem, please see my post in the brainstorming/discussion thread sticky as I can possibly offer help too with that).
