Raichu is honestly the only one I like. (just changed avatar but it only shows up on my profile for now)
I will play either Heart Gold or White. Cant decide.
Or I will practice being bad at art.

Yeah that doesn't seem to work anymore.

Really? Mine is Chu-pika-pi

This was the hardest I laughed in a week.
I just wanted to say thanks.
-
I kinda agree. There was some noticeable aliasing in the DS games, which was a bit annoying.
-
Does the DS support AA, though? If it doesn't support AA you're going to get jaggies no matter what game.
-
About this, a few weeks ago one of my friends showed a screenshot of pokemon white running on an emulator, first thing I noticed was how the screen of the emulator was bigger than usual and how everything looked smooth instead of pixelated, those damn filters
-
But it seems to look especially bad on the DS
And why are you calling it jaggies asdwegtsdff

The DS has never been very good at 3D graphics, and even the 3DS has little-to-no anti-aliasing (2X with 3D disabled); but both are handheld consoles, so it's excusable.
The spritework for HG/SS is undoubtedly the best in the series. HG/SS even got the grass right, and it - as a whole - strikes an ideal balance between 2D and 3D graphics.
My issue with the third Generation of games is that their graphics - especially those of R/S/E - didn't even look great at the time. They were flat and uncanny; the perspective seemed slightly off and the resolution of the GBA screen didn't really allow for an increase in the quality and detail of the sprites.
Most GBA games with great graphics had either very stylized graphics or graphics with depth. Metroid Fusion is a good example of both of these qualities, it's very colorful and detailed - and the size of the sprites allows for that:

In comparison, here's a whole route from R/S/E:

Even adding larger shadows to most objects would have improved the graphics vastly.
I don't really have an opinion about the Pokemon sprites in R/S/E, they're okay.

I've had this Soul Silver save ever since I started the game the day it released
I don't know if I want to start a new game, but I'm incredibly bored
-
If you have any traded Pokemon, transfer them, then restart.
-
Hey, not sure if I should restart my copy of white and perhaps do a nuzlocke. On my first run I kinda just steamrolled the entire thing with only emboar, and as cool as he is, it was really boring and easy. The only thing I have to lose would be the ~200 hours of time i have on it, because i can just dump the important pokes off on my friend's game until I start the new file. Advice?
-
No, I don't want Klutz, because I don't competitively battle, so therefore there'd pretty much be no use for it for me.
-
Because they're jagged.

I thought I had more, but alas I don't. Have this as well:
-
I don't fully understand what happened, what did he do to be disqualified?
-
The spanish players threw their excretement at other players.
-
Nope, that's (most likely) an exageration from the media.
From what I understand, one guy from the Spanish team pulled (or tried to pull) a prank on someone else's room in the hotel the participants of the tournament were staying by placing a paper-wrapped shit in front of their door. This causes a lot of uproar, the spanish team ends up having to pay a fine, then you know what consequences can an incident like this have on a "kid-friendly" fanbase. so Ruben ends up as the spacegoat and gets disqualified from the tournament

In my opinion (and if what he says on the OP is true) he should've chosen better and more mature teammates
-
that's just silly
-
Well, that's his side of the story, anyway.
I dunno, I'm not particularly interested in pokemon tournaments, I just play for fun :3

Requesting more comics.

Shouldn't that be "Thunder" not "Thunderbolt"?

WAYDAMINUT
Charizard can't even learn Thunder anything!
LANCE YOU ARE A HACKER
Edited:
oh wait it's Dragonite
got confused cause they look similar
-
charizard never used thunder anything what are you talking about
-
-
Of course Lance is a hacker. He had like level 50 Dragonites when they evolve at level 55 iiirc. Mind you there wasn't a place to find Dragonites in the wild so him finding them there is out of the question.

Darth forgot "Which pokemon has which moves"!
And...
Darth learned "To do some research before stupidly opening his mouth"

This made me laugh harder than it should have.

I'm missing something...This made me laugh harder than it should have.

Looking to play one of the older ones (Gen III and lower), since I never played most of them, except FR and LG. Any ideas?
-
HAH!
raped lance and his dragonite army with my GLORIOUS ICE BEAM SPAMMING OF DEATH
if i have to play that fucking voltorb flip game again im going to kill myself
-
I honestly think that generation 3 was an abomination. For that, I don't like anything past it.
I love the first generation, mostly because I am very familiar with it. I also love the second generation because I'm familiar with it too. I dug up my old Gameboy color to play them.
Don't laugh at me for this; We all have opinions, it doesn't matter. My hatred of the newer generations does not make my opinion bad.
There is one bad thing though... Lance and his army of dragonites spamming their silly hyper beams! Of course, I beat it first try today, but only because I luckily had taught my Alakazam ice punch. There were several close calls.
-
you're not familiar with them so you hate them
what
-
I said 3rd was an abomination, and so I don't like any of them after that.(FIRST SENTENCE)
