Thanks everyone for your wonderful articles. By the time this post goes up, the admission period for round one closes. Everyone who passed should have received their email already. I’ll post all the names below, so everyone can see who makes a chance at getting featured! Now, let’s go on with the details for round two!
What you need to do
For round two, we need a full-fledged article, to be featured in the magazine. It should be about two pages in Word, font size 11 (which is about 900 words). The article should have a rather timeless aspect, that is, it should be readable within two years and still make the same impact. Make sure it is fit for a magazine, so don’t make use of tables or list, or too many sprites. Take care of your grammar and spelling. If you win, we’ll still go sit together and iron all the kinks out, but a cleanly written article makes a much better impression. You can resubmit your article from round one if you think it is substantial enough. Submissions must reach me before January 3rd. I’ll send reminders to everyone if I haven’t got your article before December 27th. Winners (:)) will be announced somewhere around January 12th.
What you can win
In a change of plans, two articles can get featured in the magazine. Both will receive a printed copy of the magazine. If you didn’t win, it’s possible we’ll feature your article on the site in a revisit to a feature we revealed a while ago.. We’ll contact you in the case we want to see it featured. Sadly, there’s no prize coupled to this other than fame.

Does everyone have a shiny in this world except for me?
Don’t feel alone, I’m here with you.
I found…eight…in Gen 6 exclusively.
70 something eggs……
For me, 270 eggs later, no shiny carbink ;-;
Good morning everyone
Good night…zzzz…
Won my first match against a Japanese player (cause he forfeited)
Is GoomyForever here?
I think I am the only one.
Yeah, Pokejungle is almost always dead this time of day
I am now. 7 hours later.
I have 5 fully EV trained Pokemon. Only one more!! The problem? They’re all level 1… :/
thats how it is on my Y game. I didn’t get first badge yet cause I have 5 lvl 1 ev trained pokes and gotta finish super training the last one before I take on first badge lol.
Mine is for my competetive rain dance team! ^_^
TCMets is mean. I want him banned.
I’m joking people :p

I want all ya’ll banned. 😛
We all should have a banning party. (i’m joking btw)
Be sure to invite Dae.
sup
sap
Sap sipper
Supper.
completely random, but can I just say PSS is one of the best things to happen to pokemon ever.
the fact we can trade any single place in the game without having to go to upstairs/downstairs pokecenter, how we can type little shout outs to people, and the o powers >>>
I hate how there is no explanation for its existence, like there was with the Pokenav, Poketch, and C-Gear.
ahh I love that there is no explanation for it lol. All of those you named though didn’t have online features.
The C-Gear had online features. It could connect to the PGL and stuff.
ahh yeah I forgot that was 5th gen. CGear seemed so long ago I dunno why. I never really cared for it, I just like to look at my victini background in the c-gear lol.
Haha yeah that’s the one I have on a couple of my Gen 5 games 😀 I just realized, I still have to use PGL for X…
I just registered both of my games with game sync/pgl a few days ago.
You know? I’m going to Masuda method a shiny Riolu. Just for the mega.
Adamant
Swords Dance with Bullet Punch and Adaptability from Mega = death
im currently doing masuda for modest shiny goomy. I have a naive shiny one that I got through a trade for I think it was my shiny abra not sure, but I want my own modest one haha.
…aren’t you lucky. Lol. I’ve traded I don’t know how many things. I get good natures and ivs usually though.
OMG I have an idea! I can use my shiny Amoonguss as my Sweet Scenter in Terminus Cave looking for a shiny Aron, but use my shiny Politoed as a lead because of its Damp in case I find a shiny Geodude! 😀 It all fits together!
Shiny this shiny that for a shiny this that if I use my shiny that for a shiny this.
how cool, first sliggoo encountered in the safari is a female, modest, with Hidden Ability Gooey. I’m gonna use this to breed with my modest japanese ditto!!!!
I know this is going to sound crazy.. but can anyone breed me a Perfect or near Perfect Dedenne.. male with Pickup ability… expect no replies ( -__-)
I still have to get educated on that whole IV breeding thing, because I’m going to try it eventually myself.
It’s not as bad as it seems. Though it can be annoying…
I have some Timid Dedenne’s. I EV trained one. The only thing is most of them have Cheek Pouch and I didn’t know about Ivs at the time, so…
Felt sorry for this online battler, paralyzed their Gothitelle, then I Dazzle Gleamed it to death with my Espeon, on their turn, they were paralyzed so couldn’t do anything
Can someone help me evolve my Haunter and Phantump please?
Apparently, Mega Arceus! (You may need to refresh for image)
There’s been debate on whether this picture is legitimate or not. Where do you stand?
I think that if it was real, the Mega Evolution’s picture would be all over the internet by now; but it looks so real, I’m not sure. What about you?
Unless there is an identical picture of Arceus that could have been misconstrued and blacked out, it must be legitimate.
If it is, then I think it’s unnecessary. Why give the most powerful (non mega) pokemon a mega evolution, while Pokémon like Golem are ignored?
They are saving some Mega Evolutions for Pokemon Z or Hoenn remakes. That is going to be a way to bring “new” content to games from now on, I can assure you.
I hope so. It sounds like a great idea
Like the second they announce Ruby+ and Sapphire+ (that’s what I will be calling it) they will show Mega Swampert and Mega Sceptile. Just my hunch XD
That is the most likely way to introduce them IMO
I don’t think it will be the same time it is announced. I can see the remakes being announced first, with the Lati Mega Evolutions. But i would except the Swampert and Sceptile ones to be held back a bit, to keep the hype and speculation…
I’d love those Megas! And hopefully eventually all the starter evolutions get megas especially Meganium who should be Grass/Fairy
Xatu used Assurance lol
Mega Xatu special move XD
MEvos don’t have special moves, this is proved by Amphabulous not getting Draco meteor, or as I like to call it now ‘Ryuuseigun’
But they advertised it as having that move…are you SURE?
No…
Faque
You always bring such…intellect…to the conversation 😛
Heh ikr
Are we dead again?
No, but you are. *points gun*
Im guessing youre the only one online now lol
Apparently not.
Nevermind
Are Hordes or Friend Safari or consecutive fishing better for finding shinies?
Hordes, because we dont know the rate of safaris yet :/
Hordes in my experience. I found shiny Wingull (Pelipper) and Foongus (Amoonguss) using them for hunts.
Thanks!
It took me quite a few hours, but you get a 5/8192 chance per horde so and they don’t take that long to activate 😀
It reduces the rate effectively by 5 times so…
8912/5 = 1782 (rounded down)
Cool. Thanks!
Lol a mistake
Whoops mixed up 8192 lol
Its 8192/5 = 1638 (rounded down)
Now I only have to decide where I want to find hordes…
Terminus Cave has Larvitar hordes. Time to get a shiny Tyranitar!
Yeah I’m going there for the X equivalent Aron 😀
Nice! I got an Aron in wonder trade, and now I have a box and a half of 2 perfect -IV Arons.
Kewl
@shinyxatu:disqus Bulba doesn’t list Amphabulous having Ryuuseigun…
Huh, interesting. I’m not going crazy when I say that they advertised Mega Ampharos as being Electric/Dragon and capable of learning Draco Meteor?
Its just Electric outside of battle… so… yeah…
Alright then, I officially lost it. XD
Lol I have proved the third eye wrong
I never said that my third eye was always right.
Lol true…
It may always tell the truth, but that doesn’t mean it’s correct XD
You are right though, it needs DM anyway
What kind of Dragon-type doesn’t learn Draco Meteor?
Mega Charizard X, Amphabulous…
I see a trend here. Mega Evolutions SUCK! XD
CharX dont even need it lol
It just rampages and wins no matter what. Well, if I was to train up my shiny Pelipper I think I could take it.
What if I played some more New Leaf after dismissing it for about three months? My town members would be pissed at me XD
Can someone help evolve my Haunter and Phantump please?
I can.
Thanks! What’s your fc? Mine’s 4382 2036 2285
Nvm now, but thanks anyway
I can help you
Thanks a lot!
Are you online?
Thanks again 🙂
you’re welcome
So what do you guys think is the best way of having a shiny on your party?
