Did you know that Pokemon have appeared on official currency ?

*Though I suspect nearly everyone knows this by now*

Gideon Jeremiah January 5th, 2013 7:26 AM

I had no idea about that! :O

Did you know;

In the Japanese versions of Pokemon, the attack "Night Slash" is called "Blade Testing". This is a reference to an old practice that some immoral samurai held to test their new swords. They would wait alongside a road at night for a random passer-by, then attack them with the intention to kill. Night slash also has a higher than average critical hit rate, which could be another nod to the story, as the passer-by would be defenseless.

Did you know Ash's starter were supposed to be a Clefairy but then they changed it to Pikachu?

Gideon Jeremiah January 5th, 2013 7:57 AM

Did you know;

A level 100 Shuckle can potentially deal the most damage in one single attack through the use of numerous stat boosters; by using Helping Hand by two different Pokémon in a Triple battle, holding a Metronome, Power Trick, a Skill Swap to Pure Power or Huge Power, 6 Attack boosts, and a Mimiced Me First used on a slower Pokemon using the Defense Curl/Rollout combo. Also, Shuckles partner must have the ability Flower Gift and the weather must be sunny. On the 15th turn of using Rollout consecutively without any misses, if used against a level 1 Ledyba, Yanma or Combee with minimum Defense stats, that have been hit with negative Defense modifiers (such as Screech), it can deal 481,266,036 damage with a critical hit.
