I did! I'm about to rectify that.

Don't mean to nag, but you forgot the challenge I told you about XD

Mohacastle

Yayyy! New polls. I approve, Butterfree. I approve. Also, I got a Manaphy in the spam check. Heck yeah.

Heh. Not really likely, but I may consider putting up the solution to the "current" one at some point, at least, until my priority list shrinks. I don't think I could honestly spend my time doing a crossword when my brain is buzzing with other things to do for the site.

Will the crossword be updated any time soon?

As somebody who isn't particularly interested in game mechanics, I'd love to see some non-mechanics-but-still-game-related content. The past few months have been almost exclusively mechanics.

Oh, yeah, I knew I'd forgotten one of the things I was going to put on that poll.

…actually, screw it, I'll just add it to the poll. It hasn't been that long.

"Something Else": Pokémon Conquest review? I thought you mentioned somewhere that you were thinking of doing one. I guess you're not that excited about it or you would have made it an option, but if you feel so inclined, I would certainly be interested. (Moreso than for a movie review, since I don't really watch the Pokémon movies, but Conquest I might actually play.)

Scyther

I like that response for once. It was actually kind of amusing.

(I mean, I'm totally fine with you liking them anyway, but they're not good, and I don't want anyone to start reading the fic thinking it's going to be good or that I don't realize how not-good it is. It's my rampant perfectionism. Don't mind it.)

That's because they really, really do. Seriously. I could explain the many objective reasons this is true, but that genuinely would be tl;dr.

Scyther

You sure get defensive.

"Good early chapters"
Response: NO my chapters suck >:(

… 0.o

Is there something in particular you're curious about regarding Sketch? I haven't generally been in the habit of making pages about individual moves because there isn't usually that much to say about an individual move. While Sketch is not the most straightforward move out there, it's also not very complex; at a guess I'd think describing its effects would only take a paragraph or two at most, which doesn't make for much of a section.

Pages about shiny Pokémon are everywhere; I don't particularly feel the need to reinvent the wheel by making yet another one. As far as I can tell the relevant information is already out there and commonplace, so I wouldn't be adding much with my writeup if I did one.

Furret

Hey, you should write some information about the move Sketch. I find it a really interesting subject. Also, a section on shiny/shining Pokémon would be interesting, as a shiny hunter I would really enjoy that.

Yamiidenryuu

Molzapart? I thought it was Zapmolcuno. :P

That's four sentences, and it's shorter than your own "rant". How on earth do you ever manage to have a conversation if that's your standard for tl;dr?

Also, if you'd bothered to read those four sentences (heck, even if you'd only read three of them), you'd know I was agreeing with you, not disagreeing.

Scyther

aw… you went all long ranty style anyway.

Ah well. Whatever you say. (AKA tl;dr)

Eh, the fact TQftL has a save-the-world plot isn't exactly a secret anyway.

It is also not a secret that that the premise is all kinds of stupid and clichéd, because I came up with it when I was twelve and thought Molzapart and Rainteicune were the coolest things ever. You seem to be under the impression that I'm writing a save-the-world plot because I think save-the-world plots are perfectly awesome, instead of because that's what I'm stuck with because it is the plot. You're preaching to the choir.

And yes, the early chapters really are that bad.

Also I thought this thing was censored. :( Sorry once more. Can you edit it and fix my post? No? :( Sorry.
