    New Pokémon X & Y Trailer + Tons Of Information

    Very excited for this! I like the different towns hinted at on the map: windmill, standing stones, snowy Alpine town, cathedral, castle, etc. Very excited to explore them all. I'm puzzled by the desert area with the white beehives and wind turbines-- is that magma in a pool? The only thing...

    Where do you live?

    I lived in Alberta for most of my life but now I'm going to school in Toronto. Toronto is SUPER DIRTY though so when I'm done I may move back to Calgary and take care of my caaaaaaaats.

    At first I hated it....

    When I was younger I was a teenage girl misogynist and I would say shit about women and other girls to score points and get high-fives from bros. Some of this was discomfort with the expectations put on me as a girl and my desire to distance myself from them, but now I know that this was...

    CoroCoro Leaks New Pokémon!

    Sooooooooo excited. I love the robin even though it will probably be a pidgey-like pokemon that we'll see a billion times before the first gym. I'm hoping that riding pokemon and the customization are broader features than what we're seeing here (i.e. ride more pokemon than gogoat, not just the...

    Sylveon's Type: The Plot Thickens!

    They've teased it out so much that I don't think it's unreasonable to expect it to be something remarkable (i.e. new type) but I sort of want to hold back so I won't be disappointed when the reveal does come. Overall I think Light (Fairy) or Sound have good cases for inclusion (maybe both?) and...

    Summer Plans

    Working in a lab again! We're doing research on new types of supercapacitors. It's pretty cool and the other people in the lab are nice to work with. Also want to work on the intro/literature for my 4th year thesis and get that going so I'm not trying to do it the night before AS USUAL. I...

    Your favourite Pokedex Generation

    I have favorites from every generation, so I voted for the equal option as well. Check out my signature. I do think there's been a design shift toward more complicated designs as the generations advance, but I would say that pokemon has maintained its particular look pretty well.

    Your favourite Pokemon region

    Johto has a special place in my heart for some of its overtly japanese elements, like the towers, Ecruteak City and the bullet train. Hoenn would probably be a close second since I really loved the underwater routes although its music is harsher/louder to me than the other games. I also liked...

    The Mary Sue confessions thread.

    Heheheh, I had so many Sue characters for years. StellarWind probably remembers all of them, and Linkachu might remember a couple. ^_^ I wrote like eighty thousand words about my pokemon red self-insert, who had caught every pokemon and lived on an island, and rolled with a mewtwo and other...

    New Eeveelution Announced

    Clearly, to offset this OBVIOUS GENDER IMBALANCE, since only girls like pink cute things, we need a hairy, roided-out fighting type eeveelution for the manly men.

    #700 - Sylveon

    Re: #??? - Ninfia I really like the color scheme. Actually, I'm wondering about the flying type now since the ribbons really look like wings in the screenshot. "Leafia" and "Glacia" gave us some pretty obvious clues as to the types of the second most recent batch of eeveelutions-- does anyone...

    New Eeveelution Announced

    I like it, it's cute. I'm excited to see what type it is as well-- cute and pink says Normal to me, but we'll see. The blue eyes make me think of something ghostly for some reason. I've heard some wild speculation that this gen will have new types (long-hoped-for Light and something else), so...

    Official Pokémon X and Y Discussion (All Spoilers Welcome!)

    It does feel a little soon for the next gen, but the 3DS has been out for a while and it's about time for a pokemon game for it. I admit, I kind of still nurse a hope for a 3DS remake of ruby and sapphire but it sounds like that will be unlikely. I'd like to see a competent, confident female...

    What HASN'T been Pokemon-ized?!

    I like that pokemon are mostly designed from a japanese perspective rather than a western one, since it avoids designs/tropes that are kind of tired over here (greek gods, vampires, werewolves, etc.), and lets us know about obscure animals and japanese mythology, especially insects and aquatic...

    Pokémon X And Pokémon Y Legendaries Named

    They sound like they could be romanized versions of the japanese names (as per usual), and therefore speculation is useless without knowledge of japanese, but Xerneas makes me think of Herne, a cognate of the deity Cernunnos, who is generally associated with deer. And Yveltal, I saw pointed out...

    Pokémon X and Y Announced!

    SUPER excited for these two. I really like the designs of the legendaries since they seem to be getting away from the digimon/mecha look that's predominated for the last couple of gens. The starters look great and I can't wait to see their final evolutions. There is some wild speculation that...

    Avatar:TLA and LoK (WATCH OUT FOR SPOILERS)

    :/ So disappointed. So much telling instead of showing. Lame Mako/Korra with no connection between the characters. I felt more when Lieutenant guy was all betrayed by Amon. Korra gets everything handed to her. She airbends because of Mako, not because of, say, Tenzin and the kids. Korra ex...

    Avatar:TLA and LoK (WATCH OUT FOR SPOILERS)

    Today's episode was REALLY good. I really dislike Mako as a character, though. GENERAL IROH! AIRBENDER KIDS! MOTHAFUCKIN LIN BEI MOTHAFUCKIN FONG! ASAMI! NAGASLAP! Beautiful. ETA: One thing tumblr spurred me to think about: all the (defined) relationships between female characters in this...

    June Edition of CoroCoro Leaks!

    I like the new kami trio formes-- good to see them getting sprites that aren't recolors.

    Avatar:TLA and LoK (WATCH OUT FOR SPOILERS)

    I've gotten a lot more excited about Korra again after my initial disappointment with the shipping episode. I'm enjoying the show but I really do feel like this series is weaker than the first. The big factor is that all of the episodes have been written by Mike and Bryan--ONLY Mike and...
