HEY LOOK, THE 4TH MOST POPULAR CO-OWNER HERE DISAPPEARED AGAIN!
I blame a combination of Finals, E3, and smaller miscellaneous distractions.
Mostly the second two. I tend to ignore everything school related when home.
Mid-year, every day I did half of my homework on the bus, 1st period, and in homeroom.
SO ANYWAY, I did a BUNCH of crap since I disappeared. I mean really. A lot. I can't say it all here.
In fact, I refuse. Summaries are always nice though.
I've gotten several random Summoning Items since before. That's something.
So many that I don't remember them all. Yay? Though it included two more Soul Dews.
Well, anyway, at one point, I had two Rainbow Wings. For Achievements, I used one of them.
I also used a Griceous Orb. I then decided I might as well use waste my second Rainbow Wing.
I needed to get a fail for Consolation Prize anyway, right? Bad news though.
Accidentally, I used my Silver Wing without noticing until later. Kind of ticked, really.
Not a BIG DEAL since either way, I was going to drop it, but I wanted to corrupt it..
So, anyway, when it came to me using some Sumons agian, I got another Ho-oh.
I then used one of my Soul Dews. Got ANOTHER latias. 6 for 6. Ugh.
I decided to use one more Soul Dew, decided to try our and use a Repel, but...
It said nothing new. In other words, a 7th Latias. I look for it KINDA, but not really hard.
Ended up missing it in my not-really-trying search. Not that it mattered much.
I think that's all that happened to me with Summons.
Uh...
Oh, on the Ciritical Mass a few days ago, I finally did what I was planning to do.
Blew my entire GPX+ life savings for the sake of ranking. WOOHOO!~
All in all, I managed to specifically get these four.
Items bought: 22,966 (#3)
Points spent: 3,488,400 (#3)
Items sold: 23,096 (#3)
Total owned: 23,886 (#3)
My Overall Rank also burst up to #25, the highest it's ever been.
I found it surpsrsingly high, considering it's recently been falling.
I believe I saw it at around #96 a little before I did what I did.
What else...
Oh yeah, also, I kind of took a semi-break from avidly shiny hunting to work on achievements a bit more.
It's been going okay, I guess.
Anything else notable?
Well, probably, though nothing instantaneously jumps to mind.
So, if there was something, It probably wasn't TOO important.
And now for REPLIES!
OMG random lab-born shiny!
I was just grabbing lab eggs after running low on shelter grabs and I decided to grab a Swinub for the heck of it. I was kinda bummed that it was only laid around a few minutes before I picked it up but whatever. Not the most exciting shiny, but I should look on the bright side, I have 20 shinies now!
Jealouslyyy. *Stares at his Shiny Hunts*
Oh well, congratulations on getting it! =P
Yay for random Lab shiny! And it's male too; I absolutely love Shiny Mothim <3
Oooh, congrats~
One of my friends got a Shiny Mothim a while ago.
Ever since I saw it, I wanted one of those as well.
Not a current Shiny Hunt, but it was one I was considering before.
For some reason, I only have two shiny hunts, even though there are more I want.
Not sure why really. Something in my head is just telling me to keep it as two.
I think it's because internally I feel it keeps me more "focused" to stay smaller.
Bah. I'm so weird.
And just to start some discussion amongst everyone else, what does everyone think of the fifth generation Pokémon we know of so far? I really like some of them so far, and I can see me liking a lot of the ones to come in the next few months
BA~
Lists, like everyone else!~
Chiraamii - It's cute, I guess. Though, while I first thought it was going to be that regional "Early Normal-Type", like Ratatta, Sentret, Zigzagoon, and Bidoof, it looks like it might not be. Don't know if anyone else here noticed, but in the screenshot we got that had it's pokedex entry, it was number 78. The Early Normal-Type is always a pretty low dex number. Like, 19 or less, at maximum. I think Chiraamii is probably more similar to something like Meowth(#52), or Buneary(#67). Huh.
Gear - Haah. I don't know why but for some reason I love this thing. Probably my love of Steel-Types... Also it's getting of the Plus and Minus abilities is pretty cool. I wonder if it evolves...?
Hihidaruma - Everyone I talked to seems to find this one strange. But I disagree. I find it cool. It's a pretty interesting implementation of Japanese Culture, anyway. It is a baboon, (In Japanese, ヒヒ
hihi.) mixed with a
Daruma Doll. Anyone that perhaps plays Animal Crossing might know of that item, known in the game as the
Dharma, which is another name for it.
Mamepato - *shrug* I seem to have the least opinion on this of all of them. It's not bad, I guess. Though I kind of want to see it's evolutions, first.
Meguroko - I like this quite a bit, for whatever reason. I think it's those eyes. I tend to like unique eyes. I think. I dunno. I remember someone here said it reminds them of Hippopotas. Same for me, I guess. And well, I kinda like Hippopotas, so that might be what explains that.
Munna - I find this interesting for one specific reason. Supposedly, this Pokemon was delayed from the
first generation. I'm sure lots of you have heard about how Shellos was delayed from the third gen to the fourth. Well who would've thought they would have taken something from that far back! Here's a quote from a Lass in Red/Green/Blue/Yellow: "The POKEMON here are so chunky! There should be a pink one with a floral pattern!" Certainly interesting, no?
Shimama -
IS IT WHITE WITH BLACK STRIPES OR BLACK WITH WHITE STRIPES? Well, nice to see they implemented a Zebra. Can't say I expected Electric Type, honestly, though it's nice. Not quite all ecstatic but not quite bland either.
So now I'm free until the very end of August, which is when I'll be a junior! Again, for those who have different names and such for things, it means I'll be in eleventh grade.
Hey, you're in the same grade as me. =P
Didn't know that. Cool.
I think I'll like it more here if we have some off-topic discussions as well (just remember to have something on topic too). Don't hesitate to start up an off-topic discussion either - which btw Goods, I was surprisingly happy you casually threw in the World Cup reference (or at least I assume that's what it was) - now that most of us have a lot more free time.
I have to say I always loved when people did stuff like that too.
Like when people mentioned that they saw a movie or something.
