Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Hi.
In your section on writing content, you mentioned, ¨writing "OK" rather than "okay"¨ as a possible stylistical pitfall? What makes ¨OK¨ worse than ¨okay,¨ as they both seem to be equally bad slang terms? Is one more professional than the other or should both be avoided?
Thank you.
Hi Butterfree,
As per the section concerning ¨experimentation,¨ I have an idea for an experiment.
However, NOTE: this is a sidegame experiment, so it may not be the case for a main-series experimenter.
I noticed that you appear to have played MD Time. As an MD Time player, I have found Eevees abnormally strong compared to the source stating their stats in the definitive version (MD Sky), which may be something concerning a version difference. This may particularly be the case as Eevee has become a starter in MD Sky.
The experiment proposal is to attempt to run an Eevee through the dungeon Zero Isle South, Zero Isle West, or Zero Isle East and to compare the level up stats (and gains) to those listed on the MD Sky resource below.

Thank you. However, I understand if you maybe be unable to do this.
Hello Dragonfree,
Are there any plans for the ¨Movie Reviews¨ section to extend to the newer movies (e.g. from Zoroark: Master of Illusions to The Power of US? If so, when is it scheduled to be updated?
Thank you very much.
Hello everybody here! I am a fairly-new nerd when it comes to Pokémon, but I have been familiar with the franchise throughout all of my life. Only recently, upon receiving gifts from a friend on my 21st birthday, did I REALLY start getting obsessed with all things Pokémon. I have been working a lot on a project that I haven't named yet, but it's a fairly simple project; it started with me reading the Pokémon: Master Trainer board game rules and manual, as a friend of mine possesses a copy from the early 2000's and shared it with me on my birthday. As we played the game and as I read the manual to understand the game entirely, I noticed how dissimilar it really is from the REAL Pokémon games - I mean come on, set damage? No evolution? What on Earth! - so, after we played like 10 rounds and I understood the game from start to finish, my friends and I changed the rules to make the game longer and more fun. As we did this, a question continuously arose; what if we made our very own version of a Pokémon board game, which would play almost exactly like the original Nintendo games (all rulings from Gen 2, Crystal), have certain customizable elements, roleplay elements, and actual random numbers generation (including dmg calculation and catch rates)? What if we were to make something like THAT? Would that be any fun?
Well, here I am two months later. I have been working on this project a lot, taking only few breaks during production. In a sense, the game is a combination of the original Pokémon games, the Pokémon board game, with some elements of Dungeons and Dragons (character customization, character leveling, more character actions and so on). And let me say, this has been a real pain in the arse, as I have NO prior Pokémon knowledge other than sucking very bad at the original games, and generic Pokémon trivia I learned from the shows, TCG, and Pokémon: GO.
Please, if anyone is interested in this project, alert me immediately. I am looking for fanatics that know even the smallest details having to do with in-game conversions and statistics, who know the specifics of the lore that aren't readily available on the internet, and who are eager to see the creation of this thing!
I have tons of work that still needs to be done, and tons of questions that need answering!
Thanks,
Trainer Walker
hey i really like this website. awesome job!!!! lol. my favorite pokemon is Kadabra.
Probably when the Crown Tundra DLC is actually out.
When will the Favorite Pokémon Picker show Crown Tundra Pokémon?
Not currently, no.
Is there a discord out of curiosity?
Sounds good!
Nah, it’s about how the mechanics of the RNG significantly affect capturing! It’s pretty great, but also quite complicated to explain to a layperson and to express formulaically, at least if you’re trying to do it in small sessions of like 20-50 minutes and can’t keep up a train of thought.
Oh wow, more RBY weirdness to come? Can't wait! As a wild guess, does it have anything to do with opponent Trainer AI?
Butterfree, you do a fantastic job running TCoD. :) I enjoy this site so much.
I like the new updates on TCoD. The new Pickering update to The Favorite Pokemon Picker is awesome. That page is the page of TCoD that I like the most.
Jirachu told me to check out the Guestbook just now. Thanks for the mention there, Jirachu! :D It was lots of fun to make that quiz.
Hi Butterfree! I would like you to check out the new update to Greninja's Place 🙂 I think that’s what Greninlucarizard's site is called. I know you affiliated to it. It has an eeveelution quiz on it now.
I meant my friend Greninlucarizard, the person I mentioned in the last post in another friend. Please delete that message, Butterfree.
Hi butterfree me and my friend jster would like you to check out the new update to greninjas place :) I think that’s what his site is called. I know you affiliated to it. It has an eeveelution quiz on it now.
All my life I've been a Pokemon fan and I used to frequent this website way back in my preteen years when I got into making custom sprites for fun.
I was watching a YouTube video that featured your "Favorite Pokemon" finder and followed the link to try it out for myself. I was surprised to see a familiar site! Its been great reminiscing through all the cool guides and fun resources you have here. Reading through the "About Me" section I was floored to see you've been running this site for over 18 years! Incredible stuff. This place feels so home-y for me, thank you for all the great memories through the years :)
If it’s not too much trouble, could you remove the multiple Alcremie forms from the major only forms mode option?
While being able to select the multiple forms of Alcremie is nice, I don’t think I would consider it a major form like Galarian forms and gigantamax, unless you think otherwise?
On the forums, you mean? That's strange. Did you check your spam folder? Automated e-mails like this can get caught up in spam filters sometimes.
