    Those crazy game sprites

    You guys must be shooping, Pokemon never looked that weird. Here, I'll prove it. How 'bout a nice simple Pokemon, like... Farfetch'd? Let's see some of those old sprites. Look at -- WHAT FARFETCH'D WHAT SERIOUSLY MAN WHAT

    Heart Gold/Soul Siver: Which will you be buying?

    It's got to be SoulSilver, since Silver was my first video game ever. Just as long as Phanpy is still SS-exclusive. If for any reason they switch him over to HG instead, that alone might be enough to swing my vote, seriously you guys.

    Easiest question ever.

    Your favorite Game Soundtracks?

    I agree with those who've mentioned Kirby Super Star Ultra... Oh, good times, good times. I still remember the slightly out-of-key, but fantastically so, theme for the Great Cave Offensive. D/P/P. 'Nuff said. And, um, maybe no one's mentioned it because it would kind of be cheating, but...

    SwiftLeaf's sprites

    I like it! But I'd say the secondary shade of the hair color needs to be a little darker. It's easy to think the hair is just one solid hue. And the right leg of the shorts (the one closer to us) could use a little more detail for the same reason. Otherwise, a fine job.

    Favorite Smash Bros Fighter(s)

    lol lol Anyway, I got so hung up on dissing Sonic I didn't even mention my own favorite character. MR. GAME & WATCH ALL THE WAY, BAY-BAY! Ice Climbers, King Dedede, Olimar and R.O.B. are good too.

    Collect any comic/manga series'?

    There we go, I was hoping someone would say it. I've got the whole set and love it dearly. I've also dabbled in other graphic novels like Maus and The Rabbi's Cat, but I can't say I've collected any other proper comic book series, like The Sandman.

    Most annoying Pokemon

    I will still never hate any Pokemon more than Golbats in the Ice Cave in GSC. Confuse Raying bastards. Why did you have to spoil my favorite part of the game? Or at least the part with the best music.

    Favorite Smash Bros Fighter(s)

    Sonic isn't cheap, simple as that. He is the opposite of cheap. He is... How shall I put it. He is expensive. He's the really expensive date that you take to the fancy restaurant and spend a hundred bucks on. And then you take him back to your place and you realize that he has no KO potential.

    Your most forgettable Pokemon?

    I took the Sporcle quiz on the first generation of Pokemon, and I blitzed them all in about eight seconds except for these two blank slots which were just staring up at me accusingly and which I at last realized were Cubone and Marowak. Sorry, Cubone and Marowak. You're super cool, really. I...

    What is the most frequently used type by all players???

    Bug attacks were also strong against Poison Pokemon. It was a weird dynamic. Honestly, I'm glad Poison is no longer strong against Bug since that would mean Bug and Grass share three weaknesses.

    What is the most frequently used type by all players???

    That sounds about right. Man, Poison is a hopeless attack type. I want them to revise the element chart to make Poison strong against Fighting and Water next gen, but I doubt they'll do any more edits to the chart as in Gen II.

    What would you be in the Pokemon World?

    A designer of Pokemon-related technology such as Poke Balls and the like. That would be mad legit.

    Favorite Brawl Arenas?

    Castle Siege is always a good fight -- somehow the setup works perfectly -- and visually it's one of the best in the roster. Distant Planet has a great aesthetic, too, as do Pirate Ship and Hanenbow (the hate against the latter of which I don't understand at all). PictoChat's just fun, Rumble...

    Favorite Kirby Ability

    Yep, Refrigerator Kirby was all that. What a hilarious concept. I liked Fireworks Kirby, Beartrap Kirby and Drill Kirby in that game, too (don't remember the type combos, but I think they were Fire/Bomb, Needle/Cutter and Stone/Needle respectively). But as with Linkachu, for me it's got to come...

    Moving On

    I always had the sneaking suspicion you really did intend it. Awesome. I'm sorry for not crediting you with enough subtlety to get the point across the way you did. As for the new chapter, lovin' it. Perfect translation of a Porygon-line monster into a real life context (sending emails! Of...

    Moving On

    I've never seen "!?", "?!" or their ilk in professional writing. You may be right, Linkachu, that they crop up once in a while, but it's still a bad idea. I'd avoid them if going for a professional tone. (Of course, that assumes one universal "professional" style -- professional manga writers...

    The most annoying things

    Sure, and if there'd always been a space I'd see no reason to complain. But we've gotten used to spellings like Bubblebeam, Doubleslap and Vicegrip, from the TCG and virtually all other media including video game strategy guides and other official video game-related sources, and what I'm saying...

    Moving On

    Maybe it's just because I love Johto so much that I immediately got a great feeling about this story. No, actually, that's not why. It's because I could tell in a matter of paragraphs what a good writer you are. There are some wonderful little touches, like the confrontation in which Carmen does...
