I don't have an opinion about the three new Pokemon yet. :P

But I do like Alakazam and Froslass. Alakazam is a really good Pokemon to have in your team, because it's strong, fast, and has a good movepool to back it up. Froslass, on the other hand, is is actually a pretty cute Pokemon in my opinion.

Both of them are also really good in Pokemon Conquest from my experience.

Does anyone here watch (or play, or check now and then) Twitch Plays Pokémon, btw? It's a hilarious experiment xD

What is that I don't even. Maybe the tubes are the volcanoes?

That Twitch Plays thing is funny but also really frustrating lol. I was watching it last night and they kept opening the start menu and saving. They also kept going in circles x[ how did they manage to get four badges?

Wobbuffet will surely return some day :) Alakazam is a loser though, and Flareon will forever burn on in our hearts anyways. Or through Twitch Plays Pokémon. Hooray for firestone working!

Wobbuffet used Destiny Bond on Alakazam and it worked. Flareon was accidentally/purposely released by the thousands of players on Twitch.

Fun question: you have only one Revive in your bag. Would you use it on Wobbuffet or Alakazam?

Competitively I would revive Alakazam because Wobbuffet's pure defense is not fun to battle with. IRL I would revive Wobbuffet because it's the best Pokémon ever (maybe tied with Wailord).

The TwitchPlays thing is really clever and hilarious, but man is it frustrating to watch! I've been watching a run of Emerald instead, where button inputs are randomly decided by RNG. It's similarly frustrating, but at least I can follow the chat! :P

I didn't know the twitch thing was going on, I just checked on it. Wow.

It's not so fun though because if I send in controls too quickly, the chat is like YOU ARE SENDING MESSAGES TOO QUICKLY! and it disables my ability to chat for like 30 seconds. haha. But watching is pretty silly and oh so frustrating xD

I need to watch that stream sometime. It looks so hilarious. And all the memes and drawings coming out. xD

If Alakazam is holding a Alakazamite (or whatever it's called) then I'd probably use the revive on it.

Honestly that thing has gone cray by now, the Rockets have won.

I should watch a Let's Play of Pokémon Platinum because I'm honestly starting to realize that I'll never pull through and finish that game.

Platinum is pretty long, which might explain your reasoning for that. xP

I've watched more than one Nuzlocke of that stuff, like Marriland's which was all hardcore with item restrictions and set mode. But that one was getting flack from people until Giratina literally came one breath (and that's not even an exaggeration) from sweeping his entire team.

But yeah, the game is quite long, and feels a bit bogged down at times but there's still plenty to like about it.

May someday resurface in full. We'll see what happens down the road!

But it's certainly less vexing (for lack of a better word) than Diamond and Pearl. More Pokémon and more areas and basically more everything.

Pokémon LPs aren't really my thing. I've only watched DC's Vietnamese Crystal playthough because it was funny, just like the TPP thing going on right now.

I like LPs, but ones of Pokémon have to be pretty good/do something new, given I've played them a heck of a lot of times already, haha. Like RedChocobo's, where he does entertaining drawings of Pokémon during it, uses less-popular Pokémon, and sometimes even changes the starter Pokémon or trades it off from the get-go.

I don't watch pokémon LPs, but I guess if I would watch one it would be of a hack with a very different storyline, or a Nuzlocke challenge. Because I watch LPs for stories, not for seeing some epic gameplay or whatever 8) And Nuzlocke rules add quite a bit of suspense and emotion to a pokémon run, making each playthrough unique and hopefully memorable.

Might prefer reading the Nuzlocke comics though. I've seen many great ones, the original included.

Nuzlockes are fun to watch in my opinion, but I'm pretty awful at them. I become way too attached and it's just sad when things die. It's like I trained them up and taught them the TMs (prior to gen 5) for nothing ;_; So usually when something on my team that I like dies, I just become discouraged and stop playing. u.u

I've yet to finish one, but maybe some day :3
