Gah, there's so many! I'll have to name a few favorites. "You all sound like chapters from a self-help booklet!" - Kefka, Final Fantasy VI "Will you jump in the toilet?" - Narration prompt, Breath of Fire II "I am the great Cackletta's most best pupil, who is named Fawful! I am here...

I have to go with Nintendo. Compared to the other big platform makers Sony and Microsoft, it's amazing how much game development they do in-house. and have created some of the most recognizable characters in the video gaming world (Mario, Link, and Kirby to name a few). They've been in the...

Hair color in anime is often used to depict traits about a character. This is by no means a complete list, nor does it mean every character to have these hair colors acts like this. I'll provide a few examples though. Pink haired characters are often spunky, curious and bubbly (Chibi-Usa/...

I have no preference when it comes to using Pokemon in battle, though I try to catch an opposite-gendered pair of each Pokemon if possible for breeding purposes, as Egg moves and TMs are inheritered from the father. The only thing I'll usually insist on doing is when starting a new game I will...

“Bravo! A winner is you!” - The clown who gave you the Coin Case in D/P/Pt It's always funny to see pop culture (or counter-culture in this case) references in in games. While earlier generation Pokemon games did contain occasional Engrish and textual oversights, this was obviously...

I've heard about this superhero movement, and I feel that they each need to be addressed on a case-by-case basis rather than as a whole. So long as they do not interfere with police and other law enforcement, I think it's fine. However, I feel that many of these people are doing it as a method...

My first couple of boxes usually contain Pokemon that I use regularly, be it for Elite Four farming, Battle Frontier, contests or otherwise. Following that I keep any Pokemon that I don't use for battle, but retain for the purposes of breeding. But after that I don't do much in the way of...

Zubat may be a bit of an annoyance, but their being common in caves and other dark places mirrors many small species of bats in reality. Zubat and its evolutions are largely based on vampire bats, and the myths surrounding them. The three species of these blood-drinking (they don't suck, they...

I've had so many favorites, so I guess I'll need to break down a few different aspects common to RPGs and list a favorite for each. xD Graphics: Tales of Vesperia (Xbox 360) - Rather than trying to look realistic and ending up in uncanny valley, this game goes for an edgy, anime style that...

Despite its flaws, I found the Underground to be an entertaining distraction from the main game when you didn't feel like advancing the story or levelinng your 'Mons. The mining game is pretty addicting and fun to play, even if most of the time all you get is spheres and held items that you...

________________________________ Amaterasu Aoi This girl was so timid, but Amaterasu knew better than to judge a book by its cover. After all, Eria wouldn't be here if she hadn't already been an accomplished Pokemon Trainer despite her skittish nature and odd manner of dress. If anything...

________________________________ Amaterasu Aoi As Amaterasu sat back down on the sofa, she heard a voice exclaim "Sorry!" as the door to the room was briefly opened and shut. She quickly realized that this was likely her new roomate and partner, scared off by the possible presence of an...

I hope this will do. :) This is a bit of a different direction from how my characters usually are, but I had a ton of fun creating him. xD The above-average physical and mental capabilities are meant to justify Richter's knowledge of the move he wouldn't normally learn. Name: Richter Surge...

_________________________________________ Skylar Weathers The voice of the captain boomed over the loud speaker, announcing that the ship would be departing. Seconds later, a loud toot of the horn was heard and the vessel began to move. Anna sighed, shifting her gaze back to her Trainer...

Wow, sweet! Lucky for Skylar, heh. xD I'll have a post up with that in a little bit, as soon as my pizza is delivered.
