Inkfingers

Actually, you can find the English Manga online. =D A recent friend told me about it, and wants me to read it so badly.

Yeah, have you ever tried reading the Manga for Pokémon and other anime?

Oh, I see...Well, we all have our different tastes in books, that is for sure.

I totally understand what you're saying. Have you tried the Twilight Series by Staphanie Meyers?

Wow, you really do have the gift with ink to be that lucky. The books are really good, and I enjoyed them a lot.

It is pretty cool, where did you go to get it signed by her though?

That is pretty cool, it doesn't make me jealous, but you're lucky.

Sorry for the delayed response. Also, sorry about the misunderstanding. I get it now; it's really totally okay if it's more of a challenge to the people posting. Maybe I'll ask you something myself when I think of something to offer.

Yep, got it changed by me lol. The Drew and May one was nice, and I have the banner still in my album for future use.

OMG, you never told me you read Inkheart...You're kidding, because I've read it two years ago, and I've finished the entire trilogy. lol

Maybe it's just the fangirl in me talking, but I'm going to have to object to this comment:


While professors don't know everything (because it's the point of their occupation to go out and discover all they can about the world of pokémon), this comment seems to imply that they have very limited knowledge themselves. Likewise, while they don't know everything, a scientist in general doesn't really stop at "I don't know." It's more of a statement of, "It's a bit fuzzy, but there are theories that point to this" or "It's still a bit fuzzy, but here's the evidence we have that might lead us to a definite answer." In other words, they do do essentially what you're doing in that thread because basically, a scientist's job entails gathering the evidence and speculating an answer until they can finally get a definite "yes, that's what happens." Your thread is based on essentially the same thing: speculation using evidence (both real and canonical) that points to a possible answer. Theories, pretty much. (This is also why I'm a bit uncomfortable with the comment about knowing everything about pokémon because your thread is pretty much a speculation thread due to the fact that there's very little evidence in canon that supports or disproves your theories -- as in, canon never touches on these, so there's no yes or no as to whether or not you're in the metaphorical ballpark.)

Also, who says that one can't ask a pokémon professor any question they want about pokémon? After all, I'd trust Professor Oak to answer whatever question I might have.

Point is, I just find it a bit uncomfortable in that you seem to be underestimating the possible knowledge of a professor while implying that everything you say is fact, rather than simply speculation. I'd have no problem with your thread it if it's left as fan speculation (i.e., without that implication) because it's always interesting to see people try to apply real-world science to Pokémon.

Yeah sure, I wouldn't mind. It actually made me think of you as a writer at first.

Yeah, I understand that. I like Inkfingers very well myself. I might change it again once I can... If I come up with a better elongated name. I bet I will.

Oh, the name bit. It's like I said on SL's profile, Everyone calls me moog on my other names, so I just ran with it, and the caps are weird for no particular reason.

It's not a big deal.

~SL~

Oh, we'll you're very welcome. By the way, Inkfingers, the name is nice and sounds kind of mystical to me.

Hiding the Pokémon thing? I'm confused. I'm your first VM, pretty nice xD
