Commenting on: Free Quiz Scripts

Hi Butterfree! Your wonderful Pokemon website has a fan who has never played Pokemon or even collected more than ten or so cards.

I'm from the Petz community (a series of pet simulation games from the 1990s) and I absolutely loved your tutorial on how to create custom quizzes. I dipped my toes into HTML coding for the first time with a silly little personality quiz on my drag-and-drop builder site, and now I've been working on incorporating more HTML. Eventually I'd love to switch to something like Neocities so I can custom-build everything (and get away from an external corporation I don't like).

Thank you so much for sharing these resources with not just the Pokemon community, but the whole world of the web. You guide is accessible, helpful, and lots of fun!

Genuinely what were they thinking in gen 1 😂 It's the first one ever so it gets a pass but normal type gust is crazy

Mesprit is so fucking ASSSS to catch. Even with statuses

LoneRocket

I had no idea the catch rate modifier on the paralyzed status effect was so low when it came to Legendaries specifically. Like its only a few points of a percentage decimal more than trying to catch it without a status effect. Sleep comparatively doubles your chances for legendaries, but even then, it only boosts it to 4%. That explains why it took 58 ultra balls to catch a paralyzed 4hp moltres. Its elemental bird brotheren weren't anywhere near as difficult to catch, but I guess the odds had just been in my favor.

Thank you mysterious website, I will keep this information in mind when I try to to catch Mewtwo without using a MasterBall. Along with… other… legendaries.

I haven't played any online multiplayer Pokémon games, no (or rather, I think I tried one for a few minutes sometime way back in the day, but that's it). I have a lot of things on my plate, and finding time to play any video game is already a matter of having to actively prioritize the game over a number of other things. I'm willing to do that for the mainline Pokémon games, which just make me happy and which play a pivotal role in my life via my participation in Pokémon fandom, and sometimes for games whose story I'd like to experience and be able to discuss with others - but I basically never play multiplayer games. I just have too many other things to do with my time!

Have you tried any of the fan made games ? I hear there is a lot and some are amazing.
I'm personally just starting an MMO one called PokeOne with my friend and we're having such a blast. Being able to do the story together, every fight in duo with a friend, trade and battle together at anytime is everything i ever wanted from a pokemon game. I always thought the games would be so much more fun with friends and now thanks to fans we have a lot of online fan games.

What's your take on multiplayer online pokemon games, have you played any ?

Eugh. I was told that the robots would at least be good at math when the uprising came.

Unfortunately that is not even the only 100% AI-generated website that has asked to affiliate with me recently. I am now all too familiar with how bad LLMs are at the Pokémon type chart; they've more or less got the single types down but the moment they start talking about type combinations they start explaining Water/Grass is 4x weak to Flying or whatever.

I assume this was in response to the LLM-powered fanart reselling "venture" asking about affiliation?

Thanks, Butterfree, for taking a stand against commodification of fans' creativity, and for keeping the lights on in the fansite community. It's a shame that the internet's gardens have gotten so thoroughly walled.

The mechanics actually work a bit differently even in FireRed and LeafGreen and are not quite as broken, so don't use this page as an authoritative reference for those games. I should probably make an actual page on those, especially with the Switch port, hmm.

Sez

Was actually looking for Gen 3 but this should pretty much work as well. Thank you very much for your service! I really appreciate it

Maybe! There wasn't exactly a conscious decision to stop watching, but I have many, many other things to watch and too little time to watch them all.

Tyrone

Do you plan to watch the other seasons of MLP FIM?

Commenting on: The Secret Link

This site hits me with a wave of nostalgia. I'm glad to see it still up and trucking. I still haven't found all the secret links, but I intent to keep coming back to try. Happy Pokémon's 30th!

She's done fairly well for herself. She was the voice of Elsa in the Icelandic dub of Frozen and associated media. I haven't seen her too much lately but Silvía Nótt wasn't her last gig by any means.

I prefer when Iceland's Eurovision entries are in Icelandic! I like our language and it makes the songs a lot more distinct.

I watched the first couple seasons of MLP: FiM. It was fun! Rarity was my unexpected favorite pony.

Tyrone

BTW, have you seen MLP FIM? And what's your opinion on it?

Tyrone

With the actress who played Silvía Nótt, is she still famous over there. And could she have improved Iceland's Eurovision chances that year by putting a disclaimer saying it's a satire character?

And do you prefer when iceland send their songs in English or Icelandic?
