None of the guesses EMT are right so far, try again tomorrow!

[Knight of Time]

Awesome! Can I have 2 Green MGCoins, then use one of them for 3 FGs (A1, B2, C3, same grid) please?

[Lady Vulpix]

Of course: FG: Hollow Stone, Stat Modification Die, Sitrus Berry.

I'll use a Blue and a Red MGCoin for a fishing game myself. C1, A2, D2 (same grid). And another Red MGCoin for a game of MP (with XY).

Can I sell the stuff I got from those last 3 FGs for Stamps, please?

By the way, have you noticed how many Grass type moves have names related to weather conditions?

SC: 4 Blue MGCoins, 5 Red MGCoins.

[The Blue Avenger]

Obviously that means Castform needs a grass form.

I'll take my 10 scratchcards, spaces 1, 5, 9, group 2, for green coins, please.

[The Blue Avenger]

Another ten scratchcards today, please. Group 2, green coins, 1, 5, 9.

[Lady Vulpix]

You got 4 Blue MGCoins and 6 Red MGCoins.

Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, but has anyone even noticed my story at the Battle Range?

[Knight of Time]

Alright, I think this would be a good time for a new poll.

(10/22) Do you have a favourite kind of cookie? Whether you do or you don't, what are some kinds you like, and some kinds you don't like (or cannot eat because of allergies)?

Well, it's hard for me to have a single favourite, but I like chocolate chip cookies (including a variant that has Smarties in them instead of chocolate chips), gingerbread cookies, shortbread (especially Scotch shortbread), Oreos (I tried a gingerbread-flavoured variety last December, which were tasty but were only in-store for the holiday season; I'm hoping they return this year), and sugar cookies. However, I'm not a fan of spider cookies (I just never really liked them), and I cannot eat any kind of cookie that has tree nuts, peanuts, or peanut butter due to my allergies. I don't mind cookies with a little bit of coconut though, just not a whole lot as I have a harder time tolerating it.

Can I have 10 SCs for today (2, 4, 7, Green MGCoin), as well as a new MP game (hopefully with X/Y, though it doesn't really matter in the end) please?

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks for the poll, Kyle!

MG: Division Gem, Hollow Stone.

SC: 2 Green MGCoins, 3 Blue MGCoins, 4 Red MGCoins.

MP: Zweilous, Eelectrik, Taillow, Goomy, Aron, Sandshrew, Pidove, Regigigas, Grumpig, Nidoking, Krookodile, Bellossom, Foongus, Butterfree.

(10/22) Do you have a favourite kind of cookie? Whether you do or you don't, what are some kinds you like, and some kinds you don't like (or cannot eat because of allergies)?
I like most cookies, but I think I like the lemon ones best. Although I once tried some Chinese laurel flower tea cookies which were an absolute delight and I'd love to be able to eat them again (I couldn't even finish the package because my mom gave them away :(). The only cookies I definitely don't like are chocolate cookies (I mean the ones with chocolate though; not chocolate chip, those are fine).

MG, please.

[Knight of Time]

Alright, that's what I call awesome luck at the scratchcards! :)

Gabi, just wondering but can you fix the spelling for Eelektrik in the MP randomizer at some point, please? I have a funny feeling this isn't the first time I brought this up though. Anyway, your MG is a Photosythesis Gem.

MP: Zweilous, Eelektrik, Taillow, Goomy, Aron, Sandshrew, Pidove, Regigigas, Grumpig, Nidoking, Krookodile, Bellossom, Foongus, Butterfree

Question 1: Is the MP a single type?

[The Blue Avenger]

I'll take my normal ten scratchcards, group 2, spaces 1, 5, 9, for green coins, please.

[Lady Vulpix]

Oops! Sorry, Kyle, that wasn't the randomizer, it was a typo when I copied it. I was at the ICBC office where one network blocks TPM and the other blocks the randomizer, so I had to open each page in a different computer and type the results by hand. As for your question, no, it's not.

Jeff: 3 Blue MGcoins, 5 Red MGcoins.

[Knight of Time]

Oh, that's a relief, thanks for letting me know, Gabi. I remember you telling me about the problem above before, so it isn't a big deal.

MP: Zweilous, Taillow, Aron, Pidove, Nidoking, Krookodile, Foongus, Butterfree

Question 2: Is the MP or its final evolution (if applicable) immune to Ground-type moves (with or without its ability)?

[Lady Vulpix]

No, it's not.

[Knight of Time]

MP: Aron, Nidoking, Krookodile, Foongus

Question 3: Alright, I'm going to ask the previous question again, but on the flip side. Is the MP weak to Ground-type moves?

[Lady Vulpix]

Yes, it is.

[Knight of Time]

MP: Aron, Nidoking

[Knight of Time]

Hmm...a couple of interesting TMs.

I'm going to hang onto the Needle Arm TM for now (though I might sell it someday as I have no Pokemon who can learn it), as for the Blaze Kick TM, I have a few Pokemon who fit the criteria for learning the move, but I feel it would fit best on Cream, so she's getting it.

Congratulations, Jeff!

Now I'm wondering... what happens if the move Flying Press does come out in the EMT Game? If it were listed as Fighting/Flying, the first person to see the post would guess, so I think it would be best for the host to just pick one of those types in order to make it less obvious.

And now, because we haven't had a poll in a while...

(4/11) What do you think of the latest additions and changes to the Reward Center?
In my opinion, anything that boosts activity is welcome, and I believe the new TMs and items are a good addition. I still find the Ability Capsule weird, but it exists in the games, so that's fine. I hope no one wanted to buy the retired items, but it had been years since anyone bought them anyway. As for the selling of TMs, I think it's practical, but I would recommend asking others if they want to buy a TM before selling it to the Reward Center.

2 MGs, please.

[The Blue Avenger]

Flying Press is marked as a fighting-type move in the games, so I'd say go with that.

(4/11) What do you think of the latest additions and changes to the Reward Center?
I am all in favor of increasing the pool of items to buy from, and - from a meta perspective - giving people more choices in how they customize their teams. So yeah. Thumbs-up from me.

[Lady Vulpix]

Jeff: 1 stamp/CCP.

[classy_cat18]

Alright, I think this would be a great time for a new poll.

(11/21) Do you have a gadget that allows you to infuse real fruit flavour into your drinking water? If so, how often do you use it? If not, would you want such a gadget? Why or why not?

No, I don't have one of the kinds of this gadget, but I am hoping to get one for Christmas for a few reasons; one, sometimes I find drinking ordinary, flavourless water is a little dull, two, there are several kinds of fruit I like, and three, I'd be willing to try several different fruit combinations as long as I was able to taste them in the water (so in a way it would hopefully be like drinking one of those flavoured, colourless water beverages I sometimes buy).

Can I also have 10 SCs (2, 4, 7, Green MGCoin) please?

I have my hands. I can use them to squeeze fruits and drop their juice into the water. And there's also a fruit press I've used a few times but it belongs to my mum. I don't know what kind of machine you're talking about, but it doesn't sound like something on which I'd spend my money. Besides, I do like drinking plain water.

Question 1: Can the MP evolve?

Think I'll throw in a poll here too.

(3/27) Have you ever contributed information to Wikipedia or any similar website that acts as a Wiki? If so, what Wiki had the most contributions from you?

Yes, I have myself. I don't think I've contributed any information to Wikipedia itself, but I have contributed to a few video game related pages, including Bulbapedia, Zeldapedia, Super Mario Wiki, and Sonic News Network. Of those four, the most contributions from me are on Zeldapedia (I tend to thoroughly play each game before I add any information I find, even if the information is just minor).

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: MP: yes, it can. MG: Red MGcoin, Hollow Stone.

(3/27) Have you ever contributed information to Wikipedia or any similar website that acts as a Wiki? If so, what Wiki had the most contributions from you?
I have contributed to Wikipedia and a few others (like Wikia and some very specific ones), but mostly Wikipedia.

(28/3) If you could have any job you wanted and were guaranteed to make a living out of it, what would you do?
I'd be a writer. I would love to be able to write everyday. I'd probably keep working as a teacher too, because that's also something I really enjoy. But I'd probably quit my programming job and just do some programming every now and then when I or someone I know needed a program written.

3 MGs, please.

[Wolfsong]

2 games of group 2 scrachcards for green mg coin numbers 2,3,5 please *hands over two red mg coins*

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: 1 Stamp/CCP, Hollow Stone, Red MGCoin

Amy: 1 Blue MGCoin

My MP: Croconaw, Goomy, Grimer, Diglett, Shinx, Servine, Feebas

Question 2: Was the MP introduced in either of the first two generations?

(28/3) If you could have any job you wanted and were guaranteed to make a living out of it, what would you do?

I'd want to work somewhere where I could put my computer expertise or interest in customer service to good use. I'd probably go more along the line of the former though, as I feel computer work is definitely one of my biggest strengths these days.

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks. I'll use that Red MGcoin for a game of MP. All available Pokemon.

Kyle: MP: no. MG: Green MGcoin. And you could always work on customer service for a computer company.

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: Mightyena, Dustox, Kadabra, Duskull, Scyther, Sliggoo, Baltoy, Pumpkaboo, Elekid, Mienshao, Carnivine, Patrat, Excadrill, Volbeat

Yeah, it's actually tempting to work in customer service for a computer company, now that you mention it. If I knew a little more about the local computer stores here and what they have for customer service work, I might pursue one of them for a job opportunity.

My MP: Goomy, Shinx, Servine, Feebas

Question 3: Does a Ground or Fairy type render the MP's STAB moves useless?

[Lady Vulpix]

That question was interestingly worded. The answer is positive.

My MP: Mightyena, Dustox, Kadabra, Duskull, Scyther, Sliggoo, Baltoy, Pumpkaboo, Elekid, Mienshao, Carnivine, Patrat, Excadrill, Volbeat.

Question 1: is the Pokemon's type (or any of its types if it has two) super effective against Psychic type Pokemon?

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: No it isn't.

My MP: Goomy, Shinx

Question 4/Guess: Is the MP Shinx?

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: Yes, it is! What will your prize be?

My MP: Kadabra, Sliggoo, Baltoy, Elekid, Mienshao, Carnivine, Patrat, Excadrill.

Question 2: has the Pokemon evolved?

Also, new poll!

(30/3) Is your first name common among your generation where you were born? Do you know the reason? What other names are common among people your age where you live? Have common names changed over the years?
Mine is pretty common. Not only among my generation, there were many Gabrielas before and after me. But by the time I was born many of us were given that name because Gabriela Sabatini was very popular. For example, I had 2 classmates named Gabriela in kindergarten. There are some even more common names, like Juan and María which are practically prefixes (María even has an abbreviation: "Ma."). Pablo and Diego are also very common among guys my age. And still common though not quite as much are Laura, Santiago and Damián. As for the last question, yes, they have changed a lot. There was a time when everyone was naming their baby boys Lautaro, and now they're back to Santiago, and a lot of girls are named Sofía. Zoe, which used to be extremely rare, has become common too. And now a lot of people have named their babies Sherezade and Onur because of a soap opera. -_-

2 MGs, please.

(3/27) Have you ever contributed information to Wikipedia or any similar website that acts as a Wiki? If so, what Wiki had the most contributions from you?
Not directly, but someone used my translation of the Finnish National Anthem Maamme partly and posted it on Wikipedia. I frequent Mario Wiki, Final Fantasy Wiki and some anime wikias but have never contributed.

(28/3) If you could have any job you wanted and were guaranteed to make a living out of it, what would you do?
I'd take Gabi's job and become a programmer. I'd love to be able to program my own software, especially videogames. I know so little of coding and stuff, so this would be a shortcut. However, I don't know if I'd be able to take on duties my superiors would give me, I'd just work on my own projects because, well, my ideas tend to be sort of eccentric.

(30/3) Is your first name common among your generation where you were born? Do you know the reason? What other names are common among people your age where you live? Have common names changed over the years?
I don't know many other Mikaels, I think Finns prefer its shortened variants Mika and Mikko. Sanna is a popular girls' name in my generation. Some old names have almost disappeared here. Martta is popular among the elderly folk. Then there's a big ruckus about some modern names people like to call their children now. The examples escape me, sorry.

[Lady Vulpix]

Mikachu: Red MGcoin, Miracle Berry, Gold Berry.

[Wolfsong]

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy: EMT: Fly. SC: 1 Blue MGcoin. Sorry for the late reply.

Gabi: Hollow Stone, 1 Stamp/CCP

[Lady Vulpix]

I'll take that as a stamp. What about my MP?

Kyle: Double Team, Iron Head.

[Knight of Time]

Oops, sorry about that Gabi. The answer to your second question is a yes.

Hmm...two interesting TMs. I'm going to give the Iron Head TM to Bombos right away, and I'll hang onto the Double Team TM for now.

[Lady Vulpix]

OK, then.

My MP: Kadabra, Sliggoo, Mienshao, Excadrill.

Question 3: is the Pokemon's color listed as purple on the Pokédex?

[Wolfsong]

Amy: EMT: Fly. SC: 1 Blue MGcoin. Sorry for the late reply.

No worries. 2 games of group 2 scratchcards for green mg coins numbers 2,3,5 please

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy: 1 Red MGcoin. Sorry.

[Knight of Time]

Good question Gabi, yes it is.

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks! So it's either Sliggoo of Mienshao.

Question 4/Guess: Is it Sliggoo?

[Knight of Time]

Sorry, it's not Sliggoo.

[Wolfsong]

1 game of group 2 scratchcards numbers 2,3,5 for green mg coins please.

[Lady Vulpix]

You get 1 Red MGcoin back.

My MP: it must be Mienshao, then. Blue MGCoin if I'm right, please.

[Wolfsong]

1 game of group 2 scratchcards numbers 2,3,5 for green mg coins please.

[Lady Vulpix]

You get a Blue MGcoin.

[Knight of Time]

You are correct Gabi, it was Mienshao. Go ahead and take your coin.

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks, Kyle. I'll take another game of MP, please. :)

[Wolfsong]

You get a Blue MGcoin.

2 games of group 2 scratchcards for green mg coins please. Numbers 2,3,5

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy: 2 Red MGcoins.

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: Lumineon, Absol, Arbok, Gallade, Jolteon, Munna, Scatterbug, Uxie, Venomoth, Stantler, Boldore, Torterra, Mime Jr., Chimchar

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks, Kyle.

Question 1: Does the Pokemon have at least one A in its name?

[Knight of Time]

Yes it does.

[Lady Vulpix]

I see...
MP: Absol, Arbok, Gallade, Munna, Scatterbug, Stantler, Torterra, Chimchar.

Question 2: Does the Pokemon sustain regular (1x) damage from Psychic-type attacks?

[Wolfsong]

Amy: 2 Red MGcoins.

2 games of group 2 scratchcards numbers 2,3,5 for green mg coins

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: Yes it does.

Amy: 2 Blue MGCoins

[Wolfsong]

I would like my other emt for april please and one game of group 2 scratchcards numbers 2,3,5 for green mg coin please.

[Knight of Time]

You get a Stun Spore TM, but your scratchcard yielded nothing, sorry.

[Lady Vulpix]

MP: Gallade, Scatterbug, Stantler, Torterra.

Question 3: Does the Pokemon's name begin with an S?

[Knight of Time]

No it doesn't.

[Lady Vulpix]

MP: Gallade, Torterra.

Question 4/Guess: Is it Torterra?

[Knight of Time]

Sorry, it isn't Torterra.

[Lady Vulpix]

Ah, well... It must be Gallade, then.

I'd like a Blue MGCoin, please, and I'll use that plus a Red MGCoin for a pull at the EMT (I feel like it's been years since I've had one of those).

By the way, do you have any plans to update your sig?

[Knight of Time]

Yep, it was Gallade. You get your coin, and for using it and the Red MGCoin, you get a Flame Wheel TM.

As for my sig, probably not tonight. I definitely know I have to update the Unown Trophies I won, but there is something much more significant on my mind right now that is in the world of real life.

[Lady Vulpix]

OK, good luck with that, whatever it is.

As for the Flame Wheel TM... The TM compatibility list (http://forboards.tripod.com/New_TMs.txt) says it can be used by all Pokemon who learn Ember and Caledor knows Ember, so perhaps I could give it to him, but I'm not sure if that's stretching the rules a bit too much. That, and Caledor has more moves than he can use already. But I have no one else who can learn it and hasn't, so... what should I do?

[Knight of Time]

Thanks Gabi. If I decide to tell you what the story is, I'll probably post it in Misc. Stuff instead of here, since it is a complicated (and personal) one.

In regards to your TM, hmm, that is a tough one. I've definitely been in that situation before myself, so your best bet may be to sell it (I'm not really interested in it though).

[Wolfsong]

I'd like to buy 1 red mg coin for 1 stamp then use it for 1 game of group two scratchcards numbers 2,3,5 for green mg coin please

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy: you get 1 Red MGcoin back.

It's been a while since we had a poll here. I'd like to fix that. Let's make it a reflexive poll.

(15/6) If you have posted a poll before, how did you get the idea(s)? Otherwise, why haven't you tried posting one?
I usually get ideas for polls from my current situation, and sometimes from something that caught my attention in real life. Some of the ideas I get would be fit for the International Club, but no one is posting there these days. I miss it.

2 MGs, please.

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: 1 Stamp/CCP, Lunar Gem

(15/6) If you have posted a poll before, how did you get the idea(s)? Otherwise, why haven't you tried posting one?

I'm pretty much the same as you here Gabi, although sometimes I like to get ideas for polls in regards to things I either want in the future (that may or may not bear related to TPM; more on that in the poll below). As long as I don't have thinker's block getting in my way, coming up with an idea for a poll isn't too difficult for me.

(6/19) Have you ever bought an item to use as a source of motivation (or plan to buy an item to motivate you)? If so, what did you last buy (or want to buy) to motivate you? If not, why not?

For me, yes. I'm actually saving up Oodles (the virtual currency of GSN's website) to purchase a GSN smartphone charger; though I have to get just under 50,000 more Oodles to purchase one (it's 250,000 Oodles for any of you curious folks here), I can imagine it'll give me some strong motivation to get a real-life job so that I can buy a good smartphone. At the rate I'm going, I might get to purchase it in about 1 1/2 to 2 months from now.

In addition to the 3 MGs, can I have a new game of MP (w/ X/Y Pokemon) and 10 SCs (2, 4, 7, Green MGCoin) please?

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: MG: Red MGcoin, Ocean Gem, Hollow Stone.

MP: Swanna, Bulbasaur, Arbok, Yveltal, Tyrantrum, Medicham, Ponyta, Weedle, Beheeyem, Lairon, Vibrava, Palkia, Seviper, Drowzee

SC: 2 Blue MGcoins, 4 Red MGcoins.

(6/19) Have you ever bought an item to use as a source of motivation (or plan to buy an item to motivate you)? If so, what did you last buy (or want to buy) to motivate you? If not, why not?
Umm... Does tea count? Because drinking tea motivates me, and I have bought a lot of it.

(20/6) What are you looking forward to these days?
I'm mainly looking forward to AnthroCon. Only a week until my vacation starts, and then 2 more days until I can see my friends from all over the world! But I am also looking forward to seeing some comments on my latest Battle Range story.

3 MGs, please.

[Knight of Time]

Yeah, I suppose tea would count.

Gabi: Gold Berry, Gold Berry, Light Gem

My MP: Swanna, Bulbasaur, Arbok, Yveltal, Tyrantrum, Medicham, Ponyta, Weedle, Beheeyem, Lairon, Vibrava, Palkia, Seviper, Drowzee

Question 1: Has the MP evolved already?

(20/6) What are you looking forward to these days?

To be honest, there isn't much I can say I'm looking forward to that would stand out; I'm just simply looking forward to some good things happening this summer, like another volunteer placement if I'm lucky, or if I'm even luckier, some employment (this would be especially great if I could find somewhere to work that would be on the outskirts of the city I live near).

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: MP: yes, it has.

MG: Darkness Gem.

[Knight of Time]

My MP: Swanna, Arbok, Tyrantrum, Medicham, Beheeyem, Lairon, Vibrava

Question 2: Does the MP have a double weakness?

[Lady Vulpix]

No, it doesn't.

[Knight of Time]

My MP: Arbok, Tyrantrum, Medicham, Beheeyem

Question 3: Is the MP a Psychic type?

[Lady Vulpix]

Yes, it is.

[Knight of Time]

My MP: Medicham, Beheeyem

Question 4/Guess: Is the MP Medicham?

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

(15/6) If you have posted a poll before, how did you get the idea(s)? Otherwise, why haven't you tried posting one?
I don't actually remember if I have posted one... Anyways, I guess I'd get them from the current situation or perhaps just on the spur of the moment. I don't reply these too often anyway, because I never use the price items. Also, if I want to ask something, I prefer doing it in another way.

(6/19) Have you ever bought an item to use as a source of motivation (or plan to buy an item to motivate you)? If so, what did you last buy (or want to buy) to motivate you? If not, why not?
I bought a book that teaches drawing clothes today. I want to draw clothes better. I'm currently drawing a big cartoon project, it may have more than 100 pages. And I want the characters have many kinds of clothes, especially the female characters. I started this project already in 2008, so I really need a boost to it.

(20/6) What are you looking forward to these days?
A girlfriend... hey wait, I can say a new girlfriend already, that sounds odd. But being single is great, too, that's one of the reasons I decided to cut it off the girl. We still are friends, however. I'm also looking forward to some friends' birthdays, I have presents for them waiting already.

[Lady Vulpix]

Mikachu: Berry, Lunar Gem, 1 Stamp/CCP.

Kyle: Yes, it is! Pick your prize.

If you want to make use of those items, you can always train your adopted Pokemon.

(22/6) What are your thoughts on social networks?
I think they can be a great tool to communicate with others if you use them wisely, but they can also be very dangerous if you use them in the wrong way. For example, Facebook events can help you invite your friends to your birthday party, but if you make the event public then any stranger could show up and do something nasty.

2 MGs, please.

[Wolfsong]

One game of group 2 scratchcards for green mg coin please numbers 2,3,5

[Lady Vulpix]

Amy: 1 Blue MGcoin.

[Knight of Time]

Great, I'd like a Green MGCoin, then can I use it and two more MGCoins (one Red, one Blue) for my June EMTs, please?

Gabi: 1 Stamp/CCP, Berry

(22/6) What are your thoughts on social networks?

For the most part, I think they are generally okay. However, I can't say I'm a fan of Craigslist though, as I have heard of tales of murders where Craigslist was involved. So because of that, I absolutely don't trust Craigslist at all. And speaking of crimes...

(6/24) What is your opinion on crime-related shows where an actual crime took place?

For me, they can definitely be a bit on the disturbing side depending on the crime (and if any actual pictures are taken when the crime is a murder), but the strong side in me always has strong hope that the person(s) responsible for the crime are caught in the end and (hopefully) found guilty. As long as justice is served to a person or a person's family (in the case of a murder or a less serious crime that still has repercussions, like someone becoming a paraplegic), I'm satisfied.

[Shadow Wolf]

OK guys, it's been quite a long time since I last visited. With that said, I'm a little bit lost on it, but if there are any prizes you have not received and I can give them, I'd be grateful to see them on your next posts and that way I can give them to you. :)

Meanwhile:
(22/6) What are your thoughts on social networks?

Depending on their use, they can be a great asset or quite a pain. On one side, it makes communication with other people easier, but on the other hand, some people use it to stir up drama and draw attention to themselves. Hence why I don't use them often, with the exception of communicating with people from this forum. :)

(6/24) What is your opinion on crime-related shows where an actual crime took place?

I'm not sure if I understood this question so I'll give two answers:

1-If this question relates to shows about actual crimes in real life, then I find them interesting because I can see how the police and other agencies work in real life in order to solve the crimes.

2-If it is about a fictional show (like CSI) where they base some of their episodes on real life crimes, then, although they add a bit more drama, I still like to watch them. My personal favorite atm is Elementary since I'm fond of Sherlock Holmes and I like Lucy Liu as an actress.

(1/7) What are your thoughts on Pokemon Sun and Moon?

Trying my best to be spoiler free, I think Game Freak really brought innovation to this game while keeping the core elements on Pokemon untouched at the same time. It is quite a memorable generation thanks to this innovative formula and ot also brings nostalgia to the people who have played the pokemon series for a long time. I advise both new and veteran players to get this game as soon as possible.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I'm sorry, I've avoided Adopted/Captured Pokemon for ages as well. As an excuse, I have been overwhelmed by this subforum. It has so many things to offer.

(6/22) What are your thoughts on social networks?
Currently, I want to use Facebook as little as possible. If anyone here wants to contact me, I point them to TPM itself, meaning traditional topics, Private Messages and Visitor Messages. Facebook has been playing a role as a necessary evil in my life for a long time. Even Skype makes me feel more comfortable, but shame on me, I haven't dared to contact anybody there. At least not yet.

(6/24) What is your opinion on crime-related shows where an actual crime took place?
I don't watch TV too much voluntarily these days, so I really can't give my current opinion on this one. However, when I used to watch those programs as a child, I they were interesting, although I remember some people criticizing them because they give criminals ideas to commit new crimes.

(1/7) What are your thoughts on Pokemon Sun and Moon?
There's already my opinion in the subforum in question, but I can add something. It's about the tropical surroundings in the game. I find them a bit hard to approach, because, as you already probably know, I love Finnish winter, from blizzards to -40 Fahrenheit crisps. That's one reason why my least favourite Final Fantasy is Final Fantasy X and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass was a bit disappointing as well. Both games start off in a tropical island climate.

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: Solar Gem, Rainbow Gem. Sorry for the extremely late reply. Maybe now someone will read my story?

Louis: Spark Gem, Blue MGcoin, Berry, Ocean Gem.

Mikachu: Flame Gem, Sitrus Berry, Solar Gem

[Knight of Time]

It's okay Gabi, but you forgot my June EMTs when I asked for them (can I still have them, please?)...I guess they're now my January EMTs though (if you're wondering about my payment, I asked for a Green MGCoin from my last MP game (I asked if the MP was Medicham on my fourth question, and you told me it was), and I was planning to use a Red MGCoin and a Blue MGCoin as well).

[Lady Vulpix]

Ah, sorry I missed that!

I'm afraid I left AC/CC for dead once TheBlueAvenger, Wolfsong and DarkestLight left. And Shonta doesn't seem to be interested in playing anymore either. And Alex was never too interested, was he? I still don't know how much life it has left, but... I might as well keep posting here while someone wants to play. (It's sad, last night I dreamed that someone had read my story).

EMT: Frustration (how apropriate), Tickle.
