    One of my university friends is having a Pokémon-themed wedding if she ever gets married. The happy couple, the minister and 148 guests, all dressed as first-generation Pokémon.

    This is quite possibly the most impractical, strange and unlikely wedding plan ever conceived.

    I've shotgunned Gyrados.

    poor fuck who chooses jynx

    or rattata

    Tell me about it - that's why I got in on the ground floor. Other taken Pokémon are Bellsprout and Alakazam. The bride is Jigglypuff.

    Yeah, that's not a theme a thin girl would choose. Even if she is actually skinny you know that she is fat inside

    Which is the worst kind of fat

    As fun as I think it is that VoC wants to have a Justice-League-themed wedding, I still feel a tug of shame every time she talks about it like it's really going to happen.

    It makes her "that girl" to her family and friends sometimes.

    I never, ever nicknamed my pokemon until... maybe fire red, and in my most recent playthrough of diamond. I just liked keeping their names as they were.

    I couldn't STOP nicknaming my Pokemon. In Diamond I was giving nicknames to every piece of dex-entry trash I captured just because I knew when it got sent over to some poor shlub in Berlin or Seoul or Okinawa that the name went with it.

    Somewhere in Korea a youngster is running around with a Munchlax named "Burgers" in his/her party and the thought makes me giggle.

    I didn't nickname them throughout Red to Ruby/Sapphire

    Then when I got Emerald I nicknamed them all. I didn't nickname them in Diamond/Pearl so that I could learn their names first. I'll probably nickname them if I get Platinum

    I started off naming them after literary characters. I've got Huck Finn, Scylla & Charybdis, Yossarian, etc.

    Then I started naming them after Speed Racer characters, but that well went dry pretty fast.

    Now I just give them normal names that seem kind of awkward and out of place, like Gregory.

    dusk ball

    hmm i can't remember if i tried them. i've tried quickballs

    timer balls are bullshit and never work. i think i got to like 32 turns in on a battle and they still broke open as soon as i threw them

    throw a quick ball, if that doesn't work, try and knock his health down and then pelt him with dusk balls. when those run out use timer balls.

    they shouldn't run out though

    i bought a pack of Diamond/Pearl cards the other day. It reminded me why I hate the TCG these days. I got two of the same rares, a Pachirisu, except one was "reverse holo". And it wasn't the cool reverse holo like the Entei and Pichu cards from one of the movies, it was just the sheeny type.

    i want to get back into collecting all the promo cards although i don't know why. those were the only ones i'd ever go after

    I named my first Squirtle "Monk" because he was bald and head-butted people.

    I named my Cyndaquil whatever his japanese name was because I was an insufferable, weeaboo faganese at the time.

    My second Squirtle (in LeafGreen) is named "Boss" because he's the fucking boss.

    My Chimchar's name was originally "Chimpainzee" because he is a chimpanzee that brings the pain. I later re-named him "Painzer" because it was easier to say.

    My MEWTWO is just named "Mewtwo" because, canonically, he's the only one.
    (heeeeee's the only one!)
