Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Pikachu Goddess: Lol. I got $30 today for essentially playing videogames with a couple of kids I'm babysitting. We started with Wii Sports, then I decided to try and teach them how to play SSBB. The older one is 8 and his favorite characters are Lucario, Pikachu, and Mr. Game&Watch, and he's actually pretty good for his first time playing - I had to concentrate a fair amount to win when I played him (I dont believe in letting the kids win all the time). His brother, on the other hand, is pretty bad (but again, first time playing) and likes "the big fighting robot dude!" (Samus, as if he knew about ROB). Well, he used to like Samus, until he got the Smash Ball and used it. The attack he loved, but the aftermath just made me lol:
Kid: "HEY, THE ROBOT DUDE JUST TURNED INTO A GIRL"
Me: "Well, whats wrong with that?"
Kid: "BECAUSE GIRLS ARE UCKY"
Me: *\o/*
Silly 7 year olds ;-)
But yeah, after a while they asked what the WiFi was for, so I showed them. I did 2 matches, used Ness and Jigglypuff, got a combined 12 KOs from them, with only one fall (and that was a self-desruct from Jiggly's Rollout), got to use Puff Up once and PEEEEEEKAAAAAYSSSSTTTTTAAAAAAARRRRSSSSSTTTTTTOOOOORRRRRRMMMMMM twice. Oh, and I showed them the finer points of a well timed PKFRASH :D.
In short, I basically got a solid job for at least a couple of years from the kids going to their mom saying they love Alex the babysitter who will turn them into professional SSBB players. Kekekeke.

Really good information! It helps me to write content in better way.
cool
My oldest affiliate is Pokémon Rebirth, which has been around since 2001, although it didn't become an affiliate until 2005, and technically the project is now complete so the site is dormant since 2021. Sneasel Plushie, though, is also an affiliate since 2005 and last updated this December.
Who is your longest affiliate at this point? And are there any old Pokemon fansites from 2006 that are still updated 20 years later (othen than the big ones)?
Happy Pokémon Day! To celebrate, I finally figured out that my top 5 Pokémon are Rotom, Unown, Arceus, Ho-oh, and Zoroark!
Ugh, thanks for letting me know. I had no idea.
Snivy
:D
Man… I remember reading IV guides and other things off this site back in middle school. I'm blown away that it still exists and is still active. You've inspired me to make my own personal site, so thanks for that!
Godspeed, and thanks for all the tips throughout the years~
all that aside, it's absolutely incredible to see both the users who popularized the mew trick show up on this forum over 20 years later! especially as someone who's been checking in on this site every once and a while for some ~8ish years (pales in comparison, but still) and am always happy to see it's still being updated, being a fan of pokemon games and all their weird bugs and quirks is something you can never really fully lose interest in and i think that's wonderful
was trying to figure out what that acronym even meant and doing a little digging it's a transphobic nazi dogwhistle. just wonderful (intense sarcasm)
butterfree, if you see this, i strongly suggest deleting the comment above, as it happens to be hate speech disguised on a surface level as support.
and to any trans women or queer people in general who stumble across the above comment and get caught off guard like i was. you are loved. above commenter is a bigot trying to bait people. take my hand. let's hit them with hammers together
THANK YOU for telling me this. I was using a level ball to catch a lv 6 numel at full HP and it did not work multiple times. Other catch rate calculators said it should be a 100%. And googling why the ball wasn't working didn't give me any answers either.
What Pokémon are you trying? Note that any Pokémon that already have a catch rate of 255 (like earlygame bugs/rodents, etc.) will never have their catch rate boosted by Apricorn balls, because Apricorn balls work differently from other balls: they modify the catch rate directly, and it's capped at 255.
thank you for the type glitch explanation . im in diglett cave rn and was very confused when it showed super effective against my bulbasaur XD
It doesn't seem to be working for love balls or level balls? The catch rate isn't changing when you change the levels or gender
So cool! I was never aware of this before, and you explained it so well!
Genuinely an amazing read. I cannot imagine a better way to honor the memory of a lost friend than to document so thoroughly what made them special, both mechanically and to you.
I luv centiskorch
Thank you for this. The resources are incredibly helpful and accessible.
thank you so much for this, much needed in my search for heracross with one honey left…
