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.

Ok I just have to get one

I think so double check 4725-8039-2003. I am battling one now

Could I get a Seedot too? :3
2191-7648-0558
What would you like in return?
Ok I can get you a nuzleaf. And I know I already have you. Kevin right. And I don’t know. Whatever I guess
Oh alright you got me. And thanks! 😀
you ready?
I need a minute I thought getting another nuzleaf was better to do before traaing
thats fine
Ok I am ready
Dennis right
mmhmm
I caught the nuzleaf
what’s its ability?
Hey guys. I just realized you know how people use gliscor with toxic protect substitute and earthquake. Isn’t it just better to use a gligar with eviolite.
Depends on what you prefer I guess.
I use gliscor but I was just wondering
I started a Gligar for that use, but I never finished it.
It’s awesome. I love gliscor I should have used one a long time ago. I guess I didn’t because I hated ev training in previous games. I love super training. Saves me hours.

I love this.
(Lavender Town remastered)
why is the most revolted thing in Gen 1, one of my favorite things of Gen 1?
Same. It’s just eerily beautiful.
Creepy things have a nice, special place in my heart 🙂 (of course the cynical one likes creepy things)
This is why Zahrre must have a creepy town.
It had better not be contrived or I shall curse you 🙂
FairlyPsychic used curse.
It was super effective.
Not to sound completely condescending, but we need a town with a Xatu totem pole like in Mystery Dungeon if it’s even possible :3
Maybe the town with the psychic gym if there is one :3
@everyone! Fixed my Wi-Fi! Bring it world!
Woot woot!
Wait. . nvm. Dang.
Ah. So close.
Next time!
Let me just say right now that if I find another shiny Foongus against everything else in Pokemon Village, I will be royally pissed off 😛
If you are doing pokeradar if your chain starts as foongus just end it. By the way I am ready to trade
Oh okay, just a second.
Ready when you are 😀
Thanks @1a8ead94f4f0d0c8985d8c30cc09d734:disqus
what the hell happened to the @ symbol?
Are you talking about me giving the nuzleaf. I am not guest
I think it just made it Guest, but thanks regardless
Probably because I don’t use a picture
You could use a great E. Gadd picture.
SHIT I forgot my Smoke Ball *goes back to Snowbelle City*
time for todays “Let your mind Exel”! heres todays question: Gamefreak does their best to give us a world that’s always fresh and flourishing, but which in game location is your favorite? let us know below!
For X and Y?
Or in general?
If in general, Lavender Town <3
yes in general. and lavender town is always a popular choice!
People love creepy.
I say anistar with the big stone that allows you to get mega stones.
Pallet town
The place with lugia
Sky pillar even though I hate going through it
Place on top of mt coronet with dialga and palkia and the world with giratina
And N’s house I think it was.
all of these locations are fantastic! I really liked the ruins of n’s room, really made you feel for his losses at that moment. lugias den is also awesome!
Yeah I like how the kimono girls stand there and watch as you catch lugia. I also like the dragons den
Lilycove City! 😀
I love lilycove city! that place would be the ideal place to live in the pokemon universe!
Absolutely agree 😀
Me too and the safari
my favorite has to be the realgam tower, or mt. battle, they are both really awesome looking!
Darn I forgot those games. I would say citidark island I think it was called with greevil. And definitely agate village
or, another awesome place in the universe is poketopia. that’d be awesome! 😀
Battle frontier
oh? which one?
The sinnoh battle frontier
battle castle FTW! I wonder if darach and Caitlin would let me rent a room…
I spent days in battling in the battle factory just to hear that awesome music
I beat both the frontiers, I really wish the PWT in B2/W2 had a frontier brain tournament… loved the music myself!
I like the top of Mt. Pyre, I always liked that misty effect
that was cool! I liked all the gravestones, that misty effect really made you feel that the place was infested with spirits!
oh shit I just remembered the battle pike, so forget what I just said
the battle pike creeps me out! the people in there are very… mysterious, and they let there pokemon attack you, and afterward, chuckle about it!
but…Lucy
yes…. lucy!!!!! :3
also Seviper exterior building 🙂
The chamber where lance is.
The top of Mount Silver. How it is hailing, the fact that Red is standing there, just makes the atmosphere amazing.
Yeah it’s not freezing up there.
Any of the forests. I don’t know why, just really like them.
i really liked hearthrome city and humilau city:D
this nuzleaf has a good nature but it has early bird, shiftry can’t even be put to sleep XD
Has anyone heard from Bulbasword?
So we all know that there exists an Entei with Sacred Fire in Battle Maison. But apparently there also exists a Tornadus with Aeroblast in Battle Maison as well.
so Eviolite Nuzleaf or Shiftry?
I want to find a shiny Lombre SO badly. Even if I don’t find it in Pokemon Village the first time, I will go back.
Wi-Fi you drive me insane!!!! I just want to trade!!!
Sabotage is sad 🙁
So am I. 🙁
So we have a spreadsheet for starter submissions:
http://bit.ly/1jDkCVF
And another spreadsheet for Legendary submissions:
http://bit.ly/1c5GkBh
We need moar submissions people :3
I’ll get going on that later.
Goood xD
My acsess was denied.
What do you mean?
You should be able to see it now
I keep finding Foongus instead of Lombre…I may have to bail out, much like with Whismur.
LISTEN TO THE HOTDOG
I have no idea…
http://www.listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=4RN_NDRkezM
Foongus is such a troll.
I miss anythang?
Nothing significant.
I got a Nuzleaf!
Gotta get on dat Nazlif grind!
From me!
Nothing much you should answer exeledus’ question of the day it’s a good one
I just did ^_^
Oh yeah sorry I even replied to it
Where?
Below
Sorry to sound a bit greedy, but does anyone have an extra Articuno they want to part with? I don’t have much to offer, but I’d be open to negotiations.
Also, congrats to everyone who made it to round two! I wish you all luck in the rest of the contest.
No I get zapdos still haven’t caught him
I see, You should get a pokemon that’s lv 60 and always have repel active. THe bird moves when you use hms, so use the skates or bike.
I am just too lazy. I don’t care about the x mega stones anymore Jiro. I decided that at some point maybe next year I am getting pokemon x because I love these games. But I am using a team that I trade over so i can have hidden ability pokemon
I DID IT!!!!!
…Okay?
I’d tell you, but Dae would get mad 😉
BANNED
Which shiny?
Skrelp
Oh, nice one! 😀
My first in this game.
Why would dae get mad
“(note: bragging about shinies is a bannable offense until Dae catches a
shiny himself. everyone who violates this rule will see him permabanned
until he catches one. sarcasm is not a bannable offense whatsoever)”
This is from the article about the PJM deadline reminder.
The was sarcasm 😛 Notice the “sarcasm is not a bannable offense whatsoever” part?
Yeah… I’m going on like 1 hour of sleep in the last few days 🙂 I just don’t want to sleep because then I would have issues getting to sleep later
Implied=Ban-hammer meme ensues
Why what is it
And i didn’t
What? And have you always been here
Since September. I’ve been following the site since January, joined in September, but haven’t posted much because of college…
That’s so funny I have been looking at this website almost everyday and finally joined to get friend codes. Now I am on here pretty much every day. I joined I believe on the 13. I think
I’m definitely on here everyday haha
YOU CAN DOOOOOOOOO IT!
Que Rocky music.
Gross.xD
@hockerj23:disqus Quick its working!
Victory!
I’m online
Has anyone on here caught a shiny Xerneas, Yveltal or Zygarde?
I don’t believe that is possible.
It is
i think its impossibu
I’ve seen all three shiny. Zygarde is blue, Yveltal is Orange, but dark enough to be reminiscent of Shiny Garchomp, and Xerneas is red shiny i believe.
I don’t think it is possible. I heard they are locked so you can’t get them unless you hack
I’ve seen someone in the random matchup using a shiny Xerneas
Are you sure it wasn’t his other form what did it look like
Actually, the neutral form is just for Pokemon Amie and summary. In battle is changes form
Oh ok.
Yes, i’m sure
I heard that it’s red.
Battle Video?
Ugh you’re here…
Yes I believe so. I’m dropping by from time to time while working on my project.
Jordinite is a good regular here
Sorry, i didn’t recorded it
YOU SEE A SHINY XERNEAS YET YOU DON’T RECORD IT???
this theme can make ANYTHING sad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxPOSrrWjJY
It sounds so sad…
an LG2 phone commercial doesn’t exactly make me sad
Lol i knew it was going to be Emotion. But yeah, it’s beautiful q.q
Don’t feel sad at all!
I thought it sounded nice.
On exeledus’ question he wrote battle castle, what is that?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McvxwMPdHig&list=UU2ccJMFWSbjklOQESSBP_dw
aw man, that tiny Cubone…
Whose mother died an impossible death. Seriously, did they forget the type chart again?
Regardless of anime physics, My heart wept in pain
Who said it isn’t immune to only Electric type attacks, but not immune to electricity itself.
Maybe it was bludgeoned to death…
Forgive me Earthen.
Admittedly, that makes sense as it was a bar….
You are forgiven
Regardless it being a Ground type, my heart still weeps for such an unjustified act
Hey earthen do you want to have a double battle I want to try out a new strategy
Sure but this’ll give me a chance to test MY Double strategy
Oh no
Do you have my Friend Code and my Game Name?
Yes Ian right
Sorry just have to switch out a pokemon
I’ve yet to watch it ._. Gonna watch the subbed instead of the dubbed. Gotta have Lavender Town as dark as can be.
meh, not my cup of tea
Lavender Town ghosts made the likes sp…sp.spooooky…
Ooooooooooohhh weeeeeeee ooooooooohh
3spooky 4me
-52 ups and -43 downs
Such a swag
Mine shows -90 ups and -69 downs…
Disqus is drunk
Mine shows 4 ups and that is it.
@hockerj23:disqus Come on! Its working!
NNNNOOOOO!!!!!!! SO CLOSE!!
No bueno 🙁
Racist!
How is that racist..?
I was so close! D:
DX
Um, what happens if its doing the trade? Do the pokemon get lost in space?
Not sure… Never happened to me
Must not let that happen!
I’m so sorry about all this trouble. I’m sorry to you and to myself. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! And whats gonna happen when this WIFI tournament happens?
What are you trying to do?
Don’t even ask.
Wi-Fi wont connect!!!
Trade haha
That would be very unfortunate
Its gonna be when all who battle me win due to my Wi-Fi cutting out. So-called Wi-Fi battle team. 🙁 NO. I MUST FIND A WAY!!!
You’ll find a way by then!
I think I’m getting it fixed sometime *gulp* this weekend. HOW WILL I LIVE UNTIL THEN!!!!
