One Pokemon did not get cloned; that was Togepi.

No, Game Freak did not think that Nidorina and Nidoqueen eggs hatching into Nidoran♂ would be weird. What really happened was that Japanese media already established their inability to breed when G/S/C came out. (Despite that, their Pokédex entries still mention their children.)

10.04% catch rate and I still waste 40 balls… Typical.

They're not technically repeats. There's a meteor form for each color; they just happen to all look the same. I guess I could do some awkward special-casing to make it only show one of them.

Umm, Butterfree? Could you please remove the repeat Minior images? Please? Thank you!

I definitely wouldn't be surprised if it was different in BD/SP…

@Dodge7: The Breaking Bad commentaries were absolutely not just for the bit (although they were on the site for the bit)! I'm unfortunately slow to put them out because I keep getting distracted by other things which is the story of my life, but when I finally get to writing up season two, it will be posted on my Breaking Bad commentary blog.

@Alex: The Let’s Go games have completely different capture mechanics, so none of this calculator would make sense for them, and none of the Let’s Go stuff would make sense for this one. If I were to add a Let’s Go capture calculator, it would be a completely separate calculator. I might do that eventually, but it’s not my highest priority.

The Let’s Go games are missing. They are gen VII so you need to add them on here.

It's about time for this expansion! Time for me to watch literally any of these other things for the first time - I don't want to get left behind!

Guess I will need to watch the musical at some point then. The only musical I ever seen in my life by choice is Little Shop of Horrors. Though I been meaning to see Avenue Q for the longest time after seeing a clip of it on youtube.

I started binge reading those Breaking Bad commentary articles and I unironically hope this isn't just for the bit and there will be more at some point in the future.

Thanks, fixed.

@Zelkova: That's Chess as in the musical by Tim Rice, Benny Anderson and Björn Ulvaeus, I'm afraid, not the board game! I have seen Edge of Tomorrow and it's indeed pretty great.

@Hiran: You're in luck, then, because I've got six of them plus a draft of how to fix the 2008 Royal Albert Hall concert production plus a musical motif chart on the menu right now under Chess!

@BethanyDusk: Excellent, my plan is a success

@Vergiliosity: I have! I'm not the biggest fan of it, though, I'm afraid - Judas is great, but I'm not sure Ola Salo had a clear idea why Jesus is doing or saying any of what he does or says outside of "Gethsemane", and as a result his performance falls very flat for me outside of that one song.

I also felt the translation watered down several significant bits of interesting nuance in Tim Rice's original lyrics - e.g. "There may be a kingdom for me somewhere, if I only knew" is a line about Jesus having doubts, not being sure if there is anything waiting for him, and the Swedish translation (as best I can tell, not fluent in Swedish) just rendered it as "Where you do my father's will, that is my kingdom" which completely erases the point of the original line. I wrote a post with more musings about it here if you're interested! I can agree on the staging and costumes generally being well done, though.
