Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
The main point, though, is less about how trainers treat their Pokémon and more about the concept of Pokémon training itself. The anti-Pokémon argument is that the franchise promotes animal cruelty simply because it involves capturing "animals" and making them fight one another; whether the trainer in question is nice or not to the Pokémon otherwise is ultimately irrelevant since the protagonists are obviously the ones who treat their Pokémon as friends and those who are less kind are portrayed as villains.
I'm not trying to be bossy, but a good point to put in the "Animal Cruelty?" section is that some trainers actually ARE bad to their Pokemon, like Paul, Damien, (Ash's Charmander's old trainer) and to a point, Silver.
…uh, last time I checked, the whole point of my AAP articles was that people are entitled to their own opinions and that people are not better or worse just because they like or dislike a video game. Where do you see me trying to convince anybody that Pokémon rocks?
heyy… signing for the sake of signing.. nice site i guess. you're articles seem just a bit biased, especially the one about the anti-anti-pokemon… i think everyone is entitled to their decisions (yours included) and it's rather a worthless cause to convince people that pokemon rock/suck if you catch my gist. good job, keep up the good work
Believe it or not, but there's a pokemon more pathetic than Magikarp.
A male Combee!!!
Spammifier: Cranidos
(Don't you just love covering the word "Head" part of its pokedex entry on the screen that says it's the "Head Butt Pokemon?"
On a sadder note…
One of my friends from preschool's dad died.
So did one of my teachers that helped me a lot.

Though Phelps is actually Aquaman. :p
*Phelps suddenly comes up from a puddle*

O.k O.o
Raticate for spammifier. I re-did FireRed this morning and evolved my Rattata about 3 hrs ago. :D
Phelps is Aquaman an American swimmer who just set a record for most number of Olympic gold medals won, both in a single Olympics (prev. record was seven, he got eight) and lifetime (i think prev. was nine or something, he has fourteen). And yeah, he is amazing, but he had better be thanking jason lezak on benede knee for saving his ass in both the 4x100 Freestyle relay AND the 4x100 Medley relay
Who's Michael Phelps?
yea just logged in now and noticed the newest signing (the one called WoW lover).
Random much
Sorry I haven't been active on the guestbook much, been in Beijing for a week and before that, like a month in Florida. (That sunburn still hasn't gone away, using factor 30 as well. :p)
Anyway, long story short, Michael Phelps rules and Butterfree, keep up the great site-making skills. :D
Nidoqueen for spammifier.

hi your site rocks!
Maybe it'll have special text saying met somewhere, like the familiar place and all that related text.
Oops, I meant if an EGG is hatched in any other new location, too.
Hey, if Giratina is caught in the Torn World, or any other new location in Platinum, if it's traded to an English D/P, there won't be data there of where it was caught, but in Generation III, they could escape that problem because it was always in English. But do the programmers realize that?
