The Bulbasaur Race [Part 2]

7

I don't really, I don't want to lose my progress. To prevent having too many save files of the same game when doing challenges, I restart them after trading my team and important items to one of my other games. xD

This is pretty much what I do. Pokemon Bank makes everything so much easier now! :D

As much as I love the concept of Pokémon Bank, I won't be getting it because subscription fees aren't my thing. <__<

Nuzlockes is love, Nuzlockes is life.

I don't think I've ever done a challenge in a Pok?mon game, let alone a nuzlocke. I guess I'm pretty out-of-touch with the main series games, aha.

7

I haven't done a nuzlocke either, but tried some other challenges. Solochallenges are really easy in my experience, even when I solo'd with Raticate. Currently I'm doing a monoflying challenge in Black 2 for the event in Pokémon Clubs. I surprisingly managed even to beat Elesa pretty easily.

6 I haven't done any challenges either, I don't even know what half them are lol

Does anyone remember Twitch Plays Pokémon? That stuff was pretty hilarious, especially with Bird Jesus and Lord Helix. :D

6 I tried to ignore it as much as possible, actually

7.

I tried TPP once, but couldn't get into it, because we were in a Poké Center, and I tried my best to get the player out, but people kept pressing Start and things like that.

8.

I haven't participated myself, but I recall watching a bit of it and reading the lore about the false prophet and stuff. xD

7 Tumblr went crazy about it, I think it's still in my blacklist lol

I REALLY don't like TPP. When it started, I was pretty busy with stuff/exams. When my exams were done, I still didn't want to participate because I just started to get distracted with reading nuzruns,(as well as documenting my own). And of course, I still had a life. I soon figured that I should start at like after my mid-year exams, because then I probably would be extrememly free, but nope, other things, other things, and other things. So the main reason why I've never started (or liked) TPP was due to how busy I was last year.

Yeah, you can call me a monster for not liking something due to not getting into it when it was new and not willing to join at a later stage. But also kinda dis it for being everywhere. :P

Okay, now I feel bad for poor Flareon :(

10.

Haha, me too. Meanwhile, Omanyte is getting worshiped even though it was never all that popular beforehand. xD

Bird Jesus (the Pidgeot) is awesome, though!

11.

.... I GUESS NOW IS PROBABLY NOT THE BEST TIME TO SAY THAT I LIKE KABUTO BETTER THEN IS IT

I love Nuzlockes, but I'm not very good at them. I've only finished kne before, and between us I may have used aome Rare Candies at the end..... IT WAS A RANDOMIZER AND THERE WERE NO GOOD PLACES TO TRAIN

I already liked the Omanyte line before TPP came along. They didn't change anything of it for me.

I've never tried it, but I really liked the idea. The fun thing wasn't as much the actual playing of the game, but all those jokes that came to existence thanks to that single playthrough. As I haven't really followed everything, it hasn't changed whether I like some of the Pokémon or not.
Omanyte was a beast in the first generation though, great special (meaning both special attack and special defense) and defense. Awesome sweeper, which couldn't easily be busted.

I never watched TPP, except for a few seconds when I wanted to see what it was about. But I have a gripe when I'm watching someone play a video game incompetently, even if it's an experiment to see if a large group of people can play one video game. So I couldn't keep watching.

The lore of TPP is fascinating, and a fun read to see how everything came together. But I'm really glad that the "heyday" of TPP seems to be over, and Pokemon discussions aren't overrun with forced memes about Lord Helix and whatever.

I mean, TPP is still going, but it seems like everyone still enjoys the first season best with Lord Helix and ATV and everything like that. As soon as that magic adventure was over, TPP just kind of became a once-in-a-while mention.
