Chit-Chat: In which we welcome back Shining Raichu from his extended vacation

Speaking of which, I don't get why people complain about the normal 3DS…I checked, and it's about as big as the DS Lite, and nobody complained about that…oh, white people.

Having an ipad or something so you can use the touchscreen technology would be amazing. I've emulated professor layton and then they make you write out letters and I can't write a T because it takes two strokes and I can't do it fast enough on a computer @-@

You can if you jailbreak it, I think.

Though it's just for GBA, I wouldn't think that they couldn't do it for the DS from what I can tell from the hardware.

I think I need a new 3DS, for some reason my L and R buttons stop working on my handhelds.

I dont know ANYTHING about emulation, so I have to ask this:

What about it is illegal, exactly? :c

Because companies believe they'll lose money if consumers download their games through an emulator rather than buying a physical copy.

it's the exact same logic that applies to the music industry
basically, attacking those who aren't buying into capitalism with every fibre of their being

It's the same as downloading a song. You download the games without owning them.

It is legal if you do own the games though.

I thought it wasnt no matter if you own the game or not since technically you're still pirating a copy.

I read somewhere that it's legal. Because you already paid for the game, you're just playing it in a different way. Or something.

i can assume that nintendo and konami have hit squads hunting for me this very second then

Yep. You see that faint blue light in the sky outside of your home? That's their searchlight.

phew, I'm safe. what a relief

Get to the basement, Chris, with any weapons you have. Don't go down without a fight!

Okay, so we were talking about chaining the other night. I was doing it today and

12 chains in, and it didn't even show as shiny, so it was a total surprise. <3

And obviously this has to happen.

Tch I'm too much of a wimp to use moves on shiny Pokemon. I just has my Carnivine use sweet scent over and over again before throwing an Ultra Ball. Caught it on my second try. I don't know if lowering its evasiveness even helps, but in my mind, it does.

Seeking out my next target for chaining. {: I'm thinking Eevee, Ralts, or Electrike.

And grovyle.

Never forget the grovyle.

Shiny Grovyle are amazing.
Too bad I can't chain for one. ]: I've tried MM'ing for one, but gave up after hatching some hundred eggs.

I'll start chaining tomorrow, because I'm off to bed now. Too much stuff to do tomorrow. I: Goodnight, DCC.

I dont weaken shinies anymore, I most times just throw Pokeballs.

Eevee sounds cool for chaining but it has a really low appearance rate, Ive never sucessfully chained it or most Pokemon ;_;

Replying before I go.

That's true. I might have to go for a more common one. T: Electrike is a swarm Pokemon, so that should be pretty easy to chain. Maybe I'll go for it, instead.

Okay, goodnight, DCC.

Usually for shinies, I just throw a Quick Ball or Nest Ball if it's many levels weaker than my Pokemon. Sometimes I'd attack it if I know the Pokemon I have won't do a lot of damage on it. Night Slendy.

I often throw Quick Balls most of the time at shinies, otherwise I'll throw a status condition on them and use Ultra Balls and maybe use False Swipe if necessary.
