    For the Animal Crossing fans...

    Because it's 2.30am and we're having surreal thoughts... Is Sudowoodo a Gyroid? :).

    DPPt/HGSS Earthquake or Magnitude?

    I have one particular pkmn who I want to have a Ground attack, but only one. I have the choice of using Earthquake or Magnitude, and I can't decide which one to pick. Earthquake is more powerful on average: it has a fixed power of 100. But it only has 10 PP. Magnitude can vary in power from 10...

    DPPt/HGSS Foresight (a.k.a. More "Information" from Prima)

    According to the Prima Pokedex, the move Foresight doesn't just guarantee that your next move will hit. Apparently, it also makes Fighting and Normal-type attacks effective against Ghost pokemon!? Any truth in it?

    DPPt/HGSS Moves that do the same damage as the user's level

    In an attempt to cut down the waffle and just ask my question: Those moves like Night Shade and Seismic Toss, that take N HP off the foe (where N is your pokemon's current level) - are they worth keeping? 'Cos when your pkmn is level 50, they'll take 50 HP off, and when it's level 100, they'll...

    The Betterer Festivitie!

    On 5th November 1666, some Catholics tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament. There were 7 or 8 of them in total, but the guy who got caught in the basement with the gunpowder got declared the ringleader (even though he probably wasn't). Because, I mean, he was the one with the gunpowder, so...

    Sonic: The Un-named Comic

    I've tried to play it, but it was just too hard... I think the game I seriously tried was Sonic Adventure 2 on the Dreamcast. I bought it because it looked like fun, but I just couldn't get the hang of the controls. Sonic ran so fast I couldn't control him at all. On the very first level there...

    Avatars

    Probably depends on your browser. I surf with Opera set to "medium paranoia", so faulty javascript and PHP shows up in very large letters. As a result, I pretty much never get spyware or viruses :).

    The Pokedex Collector's Edition

    Doesn't even mention Emerald :?. Seems like a bit of an oversight, seeing that everyone and their dog knows it's coming out... sometime. My brain has stopped functioning (probably because I got my dinner out of the fridge 4 hours ago but haven't actually managed to cook it yet, and have been...

    Munchlax

    How about Snorbe as an alternative name? Snor- from Snorlax, and -be as in baby? I quite like Minlax/Minilax as well, athough I guess that's not much different from Munchlax.

    Question for all who have completed Collosseum

    Yeah, one of the main problems I had with Colosseum was the fact that the story seemed to have been written in 5 minutes, and had these enormous gaping holes in it. Why did the main guy turn good - DID he turn good?, why does the girl stick with him when he doesn't let her do anything? (or is...

    "Ultimate" Pokemon Contest

    Waah, waah, waah. There is an "ultimate Pokemon contest" over at Prima Games, and you have to be a resident of the US or Canada to enter. Not Fair. Just look at the prizes. Bastards.

    "Information" from the Prima Pokedex

    Stuff from The Book: Yanking a Pikachu's tail is never a good idea. Beside the fact that it can be an electrifying experience, it's also prone to deliver a nasty bite. (And Pikachu learns Bite when, exactly?) Bulbasaur always has its lunch with it, thanks to the photosynthetic bulb on its...

    The Pokedex Collector's Edition

    I have A Book. Specifically, I went into my local video games emporium on Sunday to purchase something (I was thinking of Pikmin 2 or Donkey Konga), and I found A Book. It is one of those Prima guides but so much cooler than most of them. It is the Pokemon Pokedex Collector's Edition. It is...

    Avatars

    Dunno if you used some speshal technique to get your avatar onto the site (special in the sense of you being the Pokecharms Person and thus having Powers over the site), but I couldn't get mine uploaded at all. Trying to upload it via the button on the edit profile page gave me several billion...

    Should 'Charms have a Non-Pokemon stories board?

    I feel fairly strongly that non-Pokemon fanfic should go somewhere separate to Pokemon fanfic. Dunno why. Just it would bug me immensely to be reading (say) one of the many Harry Potter fanfic sites I go to and find something on there that wasn't HP-related. I know it seems like a moot point...

    I hate, hate, hate, hate Nintendo.

    How 'bout if we send her(?) our game cartridges? ;). One of mine is even US-region... Or maybe people will go to the Pokemon Center and buy large quantities of duplicate games, so they can get large numbers of Aurora Tickets, and then sell the games on eBay... I expect they'd probably have...

    Munchlax

    So, various Pokemon sites are reporting that Gonbe (pre-evolution of Snorlax)'s English name is going to be Munchlax. Good name, or not? You know how most Pokemon names are bad puns? Well, drugs companies also come up with cutesy bad-pun names for their products when they become available over...

    Favorite GameCube Video Game?

    I would just like to say that Genius Sonority is a very silly name for a company. Apparently sonority is a real word, but I still can't make any sense out of the company name. Genius Sonority --> Genius resonance? --> We resonate with genius? OK, that sort of makes sense... if it's been badly...
