Have you ever blacked out in a wild Pokemon encounter?
Nope. Never. I always keep potions in case ;3

Have you ever blacked out in a wild Pokemon encounter?

Can't say I have. And if I did, that's embarrassing and I probably utilized the power of selective memory and buried that bit deep within the subconscious.

Have you ever blacked out in a wild Pokemon encounter?

I don't think I've ever wiped to a wild Pokemon, but it is disheartening when you find out losing such a battle actually makes you drop your money because you were running away and feeling very scared. If I get weak, I try to always heal when possible.

Have you ever blacked out in a wild Pokemon encounter?
Not that I can recall, but I wouldn't be too surprised if I have before, especially when trying to catch a legendary or something like that since I always forget to use healing items ._. Or maybe in some romhacks.

Which region has your favorite set of starters?
Hoenn and Kanto; I remember the choices being a lot tough.

Wicked3DS December 18th, 2015 5:31 AM

Which region has your favorite set of starters?

Gotta say Hoenn, I really like all three of them.

Whited out* If I have, it was when I was really young in the old games because I don't remember a time where I have :P

Though I didn't like Froakie that much at first, that quickly changed when I learned how awesome-sauce amazing its evolved for is :D And in addition to that, Fennekin is adorable and Chesnaught has an awesome signature move and ability.

Question of the Day

Have you ever blacked out in a wild Pokemon encounter?

I had, I was trying to raise a bunch of low level Pokémon and sadly the wild Pokémon have proven to be too much. ):

Oh, I'm rather surprised that you didn't pick the Kanto starters trio! o:

You know, I like always expect Kanto to be everyone's fave starters likely because I feel like everyone loved that generation. But, I don't believe in so-called "nostalgia goggles" because I find them an excuse to avoid the improvements future generations have made.

Sopheria December 18th, 2015 9:24 PM

I think I've done this a few times, myself, mostly in legendary battles. Although I wouldn't be surprised if it's happened to me in non-legendary encounters too, since I sometimes don't go to the Pokemon Center when I need to.

Question of the Day

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?

VisualJae December 18th, 2015 10:10 PM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?

I used to run emulators back in the day, but it's pretty much all 3DS now. Once RBY comes out for Virtual Console, I might tap into that. I replayed Blue version a few months ago on an emulator, but I haven't touched Yellow in years.

Qibli December 18th, 2015 10:52 PM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?
Previously, I run on roms more on my laptop because I don't have the money to buy the game and cheating is easier and affordable thru roms and I do play roms on consoles too since I have console, but unable to afford for my desire game.

Hikamaru December 18th, 2015 11:02 PM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?

I play official copies of the games on genuine DS/GBA/3DS/whatever. I don't do emulation.

Hiatus December 19th, 2015 4:22 AM

I don't play ROMs as much unless, somehow, they are on consoles, since they don't exactly give me the same feeling and whatnot.

Saragraph December 19th, 2015 5:29 AM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?

I only play official copies of games, but if I can't do that because either the console is too expensive to buy just for that one game or if the game itself is too expensive, even second hand (think FE: PoR), I'll resort to ROMs.

Sukyandaru December 19th, 2015 5:34 AM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often?
I usually just play the actual games on my 3DS now. But I used to use roms for romhacks and also things like one-Pokemon challenges, especially since the speed-up helps you grind for levels so much quicker. Overall I'd still play the actual game more, though.

Consoles, as Ashley said emulations couldn't give that feeling.

Wicked3DS December 19th, 2015 5:41 PM

Consoles, I rarely ever play ROMs.

Otamajakushi December 19th, 2015 7:05 PM

Do you play ROMs or consoles more often? Consoles most of the time because it's a nicer feeling.

Sopheria December 19th, 2015 7:23 PM

I play on consoles most often these days. It's been quite a long time since I've played a ROM.

Question of the Day

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?

Easily the standard red Pokeball! I love it a lot. (:

Bounsweet December 19th, 2015 10:30 PM

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?

I use the standard Poké Ball for everything - even legendaries. I once caught the Rayquaza in ORAS with my second Poké Ball and it was nuts! I like uniformity, but I have been kinda considering going with the trend of matching Poké Balls to different Pokémon. An Umbreon would like amazing in a Luxury Ball, for example.

bobandbill December 20th, 2015 1:49 AM

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?

Ultra, at night/in caves the Dusk Ball. I prefer my higher chances, thank you. I can see the value in trying to match a ball to your Pokemon though, but without the likes of Ball Seals to really help decorate them...

Qibli December 20th, 2015 2:07 AM

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?
Start of the game, usually standards while mid progressions and further progress. A handful of Ultra Balls would do lovely and when it's night (evening) or in the case, Dusk Balls do the job twice as better.

Saragraph December 20th, 2015 3:16 AM

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?

Mmm, probably the ultra ball. But if I've recently started to do my catches during the evening and night with dusk balls. It's just easier to catch pokémon that way, and I just like its design more than the boring ultra ball. I've never had the tendency of matching pokeballs to pokémon, not counting water types and the dive ball is.

Wicked3DS December 20th, 2015 6:38 AM

What kind of Pokeball do you use most often for catching Pokemon?

I use either regular Pokéballs or Dusk Balls most of the time. Sometimes I'll use a Net Ball if I have one, but I don't go out of my way to get them :P
