Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Lots of queries here! Doing my best to answer everything:
- Yes, I plan to continue the movie reviews. I've got some other things I'm focusing on at the moment but will probably get to that after. (I'd been redoing the reviews, rewriting the text and adding screenshots - I've still yet to do that for the specials, but after that I'd move on to movie 13 onwards.)
- Unfortunately I doubt I'll do the Eevee in PMD experiment, given it's something very specific reported by one person in a side game. If you have suspicions about Eevee, I think it makes more sense for you to try it out yourself!
- It was probably pretty over-the-top of me to insist OK is unacceptable on that page; English style guides generally don't seem to think so, or even prefer OK because it's the older spelling. I do personally think it's super ugly and jarring to read in serious text. It has just become a word, and I find it supremely awkward to treat it like an abbreviation when in fact everyone who says it regards it simply as a word, and it's decidedly unclear even to etymologists what it's even supposed to stand for, let alone to the people who use it. But seeing as I obviously don't dictate the English language, I should probably remove that particular gripe.
- Bulbapedia and Serebii can both be wrong, so it's hard to say exactly in the general case. To be sure I will generally either try to see if I can find this data directly from dataminers somewhere or try to test it myself on an actual game. However, if I can't do that, provisionally it's good to look into where the information seems to be coming from and what's likely to be more up-to-date. For this case in particular, I notice that Serebii's Pokédex doesn't seem to treat SOS rate as a property of each form, but of the species - so if red and blue Basculin have different SOS call rates as Bulbapedia suggests, it makes sense Serebii would be missing that info. Furthermore, I looked on the history page for the Bulbapedia page on SOS battles - you can often find who added the information and whether they cite a source for it - and they point to a GameFAQs thread where multiple people confirm blue-striped Basculin doesn't seem to ever call for help. So, without getting into testing it myself, it seems likely that Bulbapedia is correct here.

I don't know if I have the brain capacity to memorise all of the pokedex numbers but I'm sure it'll be fine.
Thank you so much for this, I guess I did just get really unlucky with Regirock.
Any backup musical ideas in case the Pokémon Company sues you?
If I could get away with it, it would be Morphic: the Musical :P
Butterfree, if you wrote a Broadway musical yourself, what would it be about?
Shiny verification 'mon!! :O AAAA
Hope you're having a great vacation, Butterfree! ^^
Not to be rude, but what goes on in your head?
Scyther, apparently
Amazing. The funny thing is I was actually at a theme park yesterday (Tokyo DisneySea).
I had a dream that a "TCOD theme park" went viral. This still not existing or anything, but u started doing a bit where youd write about a TCOD theme park in an update. Youd be like, had this crazy customer experience today at the TCOD theme park, & then youd specify its location which was just on the cusp of being in a realistic major city but at a more out of the way address. So these so called customer stories started going a bit viral, but of course the inevitable followup question people started asking is "What's the TCOD theme park?" And youd just be like yeah come by the TCOD theme park its at ABCDE. And then the end of the dream was me taking the bus past that street & hearing other passengers say "Isn't the TCOD theme park supposed to be here?" LOL
I absolutely notice the redundancy in this proposed nomenclature roflll.
… And then I had one of those recursive dreams where I came to the site to tell u this, but your years' april fools prank was to change it to one of those pkmn news blogs back in the day that wanted to be serebii or kotaku & it had a personalityless white layout (NOT TO GIVE YOU ANY IDEAS). And you had labelled these posts with like a bunch of pretend new site staff also. And I was like alright let me just get past the april fools update to the guestbook.. but then you were impossibly rarely slow taking down the update, so I was like… Isnt it past april fools day now….. & it was like the 4th. & I started to get concerned about the permanence of this update ROFL.
So that's my incredible quantity of post-late night dennys haze TCOD dreams. 😂 (I don't even live in the americas… My country is like a complete regional isolate with like a leaderboard quantity of dennys branches.)
Hello, your favorite Pokémon is Scyther, what's yours?
Reminds me of my brother back in 2004. I used ta like hide my Pokémon games from him, way afraid he would delete my data and stuff…good times…
There should be a new personality quiz that’s more up to date👌
Not exactly; just get familiar with the route, do a few trees together like suggested in the guide to avoid flying between every pair of trees, and as you do it you'll get quicker at it.
Oof… that is going to take a while, any recommendation to make it fast ?
Apologies, my younger brother snuck onto my computer and wrote this. I do not have any interest in writing pokemon fanfictions and much prefer playing the official games.
My brother tends to do stuff like this, deleting save files for my pokemon games, and such.
Apologies,
RatonLeveur.
No, you'd need to slather or battle a Pokémon from a different tree first.
Thank you for the answer, now I wonder the best way to go about it, because its very time-consuming doing the route every day for 3 times, and having to repeat it to slather honey again is even more time-consuming, so I was thinking would a double slather solve the issue of getting a Pokémon from the same column ?
I've managed to get on the HoF 2 times already somehow
Unfortunately, I'm not particularly interested in writing that, and it wouldn't make any sense as an actual AU of this story (legendary morphs actually existing in this universe is right out, for one; legendaries are unicorn-level cryptids here that are not generally believed to exist, but if they did exist, how would there be Pokémorphs of them, when Pokémorphs exist only because of this one experiment carried out by a single group of scientists?).
But it sounds like you are interested and have a lot of specific ideas for what that story would involve, so I think you should go ahead and write it yourself! I would suggest you don't call it "Morphic: the flip side" because that could confuse people, but anyone can write about Pokémorphs if they want to; it's an entire genre of stories, not just this one. Many of the other existing Pokémorph fics out there are also less depressing and more action-packed and have romantic relationships, so if you look around you might find other fics you'd enjoy!
