  1. Gear-Uh-Teen-Uh Smeer-Gull Met-Uh-Gross (like floss) I least I think so.
  2. Xatu = Za-tu Milotic = My-low-tick Arceus = Ar-see-us (Following the Japanese pronunciation, which is the most correct. PUSA simply changed the pronunciation to have a Greek-ier name.) Sceptile (Sep-tile) Gliscor (Gly-score (Long i sound)) My questions: Raikou (I suspect it's Rye-koh, following JP, but I've always pronounced it Rye-ku.) Suicune (Swi-koon or Su-ee-koon?) The Nidorans (How should you pronounce the gender symbols to avoid confusion between the two?) Linoone (Lye-noon or Lih-noon; I think it's the first, but I've always said the second.) Porygon-Z (In Japan, Z is "Zetto", but in the US, it's Zee, and in European derived countries, it's Zed. Does it really matter, as it's based on culture? Do they call it Porygon-Z (Zetto) in Japan?) Aron and Lairon Regice (Rej-ice, Re-jih-ice, or Re-jee-ice? Is the "gi" in the Regis pronounced jih or jee?) That's all I can think of now. Remember, everyone can pronounce a word in the way they interpret it.
  3. This is a thread for when silhouettes of new Pokémon are shown. So far, we've got Zoroark (already confirmed) and the starters. My guesses on the starters (if they are following a Grass, Fire, Water order) are: Grass: Reminds me of that one crocodile thing on NeoPets in shape, but could be some bird with a beak (unlikely). The three points are probably leaves. Fire: Easily a rabbit. Water: Looks something like a beaver, as you can see what appears to be a beaver tail and maybe puffy cheeks. Still a little unsure though. So what are your guesses?
  4. I tried looking on Smogon for this, but I got totally lost and overwhelmed with the sheer amount of posts. So I thought I'd check here. Has a method been found that will make the next wild Pokémon you face have Pokérus?
  5. If you have a shiny Pokémon, (that wasn't bred, chained, or from a different game, just caught with a normal 1/8192 chance), you can employ a method that should give you your Secret ID. BUT, only if you possess a normal shiny Pokémon.
  6. IVs will alter your final totals by anywhere from 0 - 31 points. Nature will alter your final totals by multiplying them by 0.9, 1.0, or 1.1. EVs alter your final totals anywhere from 0 - 63. If you already have max EVs for one Stat, it's most likely the IVs and/or Nature. What are your Nature and Stats?
  7. MIND = BLOWN I could not help but imagine the Dilbert cartoon theme playing as I read this. Anyway, I believe in Creationism, although I always do have a couple of nagging doubts in the back of my head. It's the concept of the soul, death, mind, and origins that get me thinking. It's just so fascinating how the universe works, how can I not believe that there is a God? But, science does make a good point. It's ultimately up to the person to decide what they believe in, and why they believe in it.
  8. I chose Torchic, and I stay with Fire Starters. But i do liek mudkipz...
  9. I thought it would be a cool idea if we could post our favourite Pokémon videos that we have seen. I saw this one today, and knew I had to post it. Everyone, this is the time to post your favourites! Also, please put the videos in spoiler tags, or just post the URL. Here's the URL of my favourite, with the video in spoilers.
  10. <p><p><p><p><p>Ha, I hope I gave you a nostalgia trip! I love that feeling you get when you remember something you haven't thought of in years, or something that was prominent in your life. Sometimes, just for the heck of it, I'll look up Nintendo 64 commercials, and I want one just as bad now as I did then (although I do have one). I once made my own website. I have no idea what it was called, but I called myself Björn, the Swedish bodybuilder. It was sort of an introduction to Dreamweaver.</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>On an unrelated note, what happened to Fallen? Wasn't he an administrator? It says he hasn't been on for 3 weeks, and his name is no longer red.</p></p></p></p></p>

  11. He had one of, if not THE greatest impact in pop history during his time. During the mid 90s to the mid 00s, his popularity was nowhere near as high as his peak. He was still a household name, but the only reasons people seemed to talk about him anymore were "scandals". When he died, the focus on him increased so much, including his music. I have to admit, even I gave a second thought. Now, everyone hates him or absolutely loves him for reasons they don't fully understand. You have to admit, with "This is It" being passed off as a mainstream movie, and small developments regarding his death still appearing, not to mention that one show with the former Jackson 5, that his death significantly affected the lack of hype around him. And it's only because of his death. If he were still alive, his music wouldn't have had the popularity it had during 2009.
  12. I enjoy alternative rock bands such as Disturbed (although they have a little bit of metal), Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc., and southern rock bands like The Outlaws and Lynyrd Skynyrd. On occasion, I also like dance/techno, as it's fun to listen to at parties, and makes me feel uninhibited. Not many people that I know even know what alt. rock is. They all pretty much listen to the same thing, which gets on my nerves. I also can't stand most radio music. Alternative rock symbolizes the break from commercialism, where artists let their instruments let out what they feel. EDIT: I also don't like the overhype older artists are getting. Everyone makes fun of Michael Jackson. Then he dies. Now, he's a "saint", just because it's now popular to like him. His music is alright, and made a significant impact in musical history, but why only acknowledge it now that he's dead? The same goes for the Beatles. Although they were more respected throughout history, they had a massive spike in popularity during 2009. Now, people go around acting like they know them like the back of their hand. Why can't people just keep a consistent opinion? Choose your own musical style based on your self-explored preferences, not on what everyone says is an awesome song. I also happen to despise recent teen pop and all it represents.

    <p><p><p><p><p>That should be the website. It's hosted by Freewebs, but same difference.</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>I forgot that licensing is different in many places. In Ontario, Canada, there is a form of graduated licensing. The first level is G1 (allowed to drive with an adult that has at least four years experience, no highways, maximum of 2 hours driving per week, must be at least 16). The next level is G2 (12 months after G1 (8 if you take Driver's Ed, which I did), highways if you're with an instructor, allowed to drive by yourself, etc.). The final level is G, which is full licensing. You can get it 12 months after you get a G2. I got my G1 today.</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>Those sprites sound cool. I just might take you up on your offer.</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>I think I understand how you feel. I always find myself questioning the "norms" of society, and the people who conform to it without a second thought. I'm pretty well-liked at school, but it's merely a facade in my eyes.</p></p></p></p></p>

  14. What game is this for? Also, this should be moved to the appropriate thread. Also, HE'S MADE OF RUBBER! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN? YO-HO-HO, HE TOOK A BITE OF GUM-GUM. YAH-YOH-YAH-YOH
  15. <p><p><p><p><p>Thanks, Wraith! I went to get my G1 today, and failed. I was given 2 sheets with 20 questions, and was told that I needed at least 16 right on each to pass. I got 16/20 on the second one, but got 15/20 on the first one. I'm gonna go back and try again, but I'm gonna study a bit first. The funny thing is, on the 15/20, a few of the questions I got wrong were actually not my first choices. My original choices just so happened to be correct, but I overthought things to the point that I was unsure of myself. Just goes to show that I gotta study more so I figure out my answers.</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>Sorry that I forgot about our previous conversation. I kept forgetting to reply until it got to the point that I felt it would be awkward to reply. In reply to it, I honestly thought that that other Wraith89 was you. I guess it's a more common username than I thought (or you've got a fan). Did you create that Trainer GIF yourself, because it looks pretty cool. So, how are you doing lately? Anything new or exciting?</p></p></p></p></p>

  16. <p><p><p><p><p>KRAFT DINNER WILL DEFECATE ALL OVER YOUR SILLY VELVETA, AND I WILL EAT IT BECAUSE IT'S KRAFT DINNER. Nah, I'm just joking around. Velveta's pretty good, but it'll need a few more years of experience before it can take on the almighty KD!</p></p></p></p></p>

    <p><p><p><p><p>Also, do you happen to have an account on Flipnote Hatena? A couple of weeks ago, I was checking out Flipnotes, and found a user named "Fawful". Does that happen to be you?</p></p></p></p></p>

  17. @ Pokemon walkthrough help That is spam. It does not belong in a news thread. @ Everyone else Obviously, we're gonna need a seperate "Black and White Speculation/Discussion" thread. We have no proof of anything so far, so we should probably seperate what we know (news articles) from what we speculate. THERE, WE SHALL ENGAGE IN WAR!
  18. But we don't know how far these games are in development. I gave an example above about G/S being similar to Gen I at the time of announcement (as shown in incredibly old pictures), but being massively altered two years later during the release, which was thought to happen soon after the announcement. Each Gen's starter games were released long after their planned release date. In B/W's case, it's late 2010. I am sure that it will get pushed back due to unspecified reasons, and we'll all wind up with Gen V on the 3DS. I just can't imagine them on the DS. It has nowhere to go for its future, even if some slightly re-worked Pokémon games are gonna be put on it. It's just not good business sense. I'd think the second-best selling video game franchise can do better than that.
  19. Gold and Silver were originally planned for the Game Boy, but (while still compatible with it) were optimized for the Game Boy Color. We've only seen a few pictures. Nothing can be assumed yet. There is no indication of a touch screen yet, so we'll have to wait for a bit before making anything beyond speculation. At this point in the game, anything goes.
  20. I am now almost positive that the games will be on the 3DS. The DS logo on the website being proof that it isn't doesn't make sense. The 3DS is a tentative title, like Nitro was for the original DS and Revolution was for the Wii. So why make a logo if 3DS may not be the final name? Also, the scans show massive enviroments, which would be a pain to load on the DS, even with reduced frame rates. So far, the overworld (like caves) look a bit better than HG/SS, but remember Diamond and Pearl? Their graphics were significantly changed and upgraded from their original scans. The original release date was in 2005, but ended up being mid-late 2006. The same could be considered for Black and White, especially considering it's almost guaranteed to be seperated from Gen IV. Gen I and II were a group, followed by Gen III and IV, and so will Gen V and (possibly) VI. Also, do we even know if we are viewing the BETA or ALPHA gameplay? Gold and Silver looked extremely similar to their predecessors during their Alpha stages, but had a dramatic change in graphics leading up to their release. Even the Alpha versions were playable, albeit in a small demo with prototype Pokémon. Also, we have not seen what the gameplay looks like on any actual system. Also, did anyone happen to notice the male protagonist's arms stick out?
  21. I was surfing on Bulbapedia, only to see "Black" and "White" under their Generation V section. MASSIVE SPOILERS POUR MOI. Goshdarn, I'm so excited! I might just explode! The logos are interesting, but I can't help but miss the ones used since Generation III began. I hope NoA treats this as a sign that they should start making the English logos look similar to the Japanese ones. I guess we'll have to wait until April 15th, but CoroCoro should be out before then. Also, congrats for reporting this before Bulbapedia made a news article!
  22. It's been a great year. Through all the ups and downs, this site has prospered. It is one of (if not THE) best websites for its theme. This was the first forum I joined, so I owe my thanks to it. This may be the first anniversary, but it is certainly not the last. Here's to another great year, to Generation V and beyond!
  23. Hello, TrueGamerGirl! Many members who are on PKM DB were originally members here. In a couple weeks, it will be Project Pokémon's one-year anniversary. Before that, it was the original PKM DB. In August 2009, PKM DB returned as a seperate site. Unfortunately, it only had about three updates. After that, it just sorta died. As of recent, it has returned, but you already knew that;). Each site has a specific purpose. PKM DB specializes in events, while PP (although covering a wide range of topics) specializes in Research and Development of the ROM and RAM of the main Pokémon games. Both websites are growing, although PP went through a slump. Its high point was in September 2009, when it had over 10,000 visits. Unfortunately, in November, it suffered a lack of updates, lasting about two months. Many people stopped coming. I personally thought it would have the same fate as the 2nd PKM DB. But as luck would have it, the Administrators were paying attention, and completely revamped the site. Now, people are slowly coming back. That is your website history lesson for the day. We hope you enjoy your stay!
  24. In the all versions that are not Japanese, the Coin Case is obtained from Mr. Game, or whatever his name is. I gave all the values from a Japanese version to an English version, and the Coin Case was then in the Underground. After, I went to that weird tent place at the end of the city, and it crashed. I don't know if this was a side effect, or maybe I just used the Walk Through Walls code too much. PS- Hey SCV, are you planning to implement a Text Searcher on PPRE, so specific words and phrases can be found easier?
  25. I was thinking that I could just copy the script, text (translate it later), and everything else from a Japanese version (copypasta FTW!!!11), and hope for the best, but it seems that PPRE won't view the Goldenrod Game Corner's information. Would this have worked in the first place? I am completely useless when it comes to stuff like this, but does that mean that the information from the Japanese games has not been fully integrated into PPRE, yet? EDIT: Wait, are the maps numbered differently in the Japanese versions? If so, what are the map numbers for the Goldenrod Game Corner and the Celadon Game Corner? While I'm at it, is the Coin Case obtained from the Goldenrod Underground like in the original games, or is it actually obtained in the Game Corner (this question only applies to the Japanese games)?
