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.

I want to boost your spirit to battle
I admire that friend
Misclick…
Good lord Pokémon Trainers are very rich people!
I FINALLY BEAT DUSKNOIR! GODDAMNIT DON’T EVEN TRY IT!

Well I’m referring to Explorers of Sky.
oh (goddammit I look like an idiot now)
I didn’t say it, don’t worry about it.
So yea, im doing a game, wath ya guys doin
Explorers of Sky, beat Dusknoir.
Homework…
Procrastinating…
great?
This I promised!
Oh wow lol you are good
pssst….use water types…and Will-o-Wisp/Scald. And Rotom
My water type died
Get yourself a Rotom. That thing never dies…
Me next?
I just realized that you have to believe in God in the Pokeverse because of Arceus http://i48.tinypic.com/wrz5g7.gif
You really don’t. You’re stretching it thin here.
I meant the characters inside the game would have to, obviously a fictitious creature doesn’t prove shit
Still don’t because people haven’t seen it. It’s still a ‘myth’ to them.
huh, well this just makes me feel a bit dumb, still a “God Pokemon” is always going to be a stupid idea
What a deep and thought-provoking idea. NOT.
there needs to be a cuttlefish pokemon
What is Malamar?
Chutulu
Calamari
give me a idea and i’ll think of something
Its a colorblind animal wich can adopt the form of any fish, or any animal who lives underwater
I’m more inclined towards a BlobFish Pokemon
Bye Sandstorm
My friend is making a comp. team. How will this fair?
Bisharp
Furfrou
Smeargle
Medicham
Breloom
Granbull.
Do you think this team can hold its own the real world?
No
Why not? Can I have suggestions? They are IV bred.
Let him try the team out first, then he will think of ways to male it better. For now we will hope that he never encounters a blaziken.
Oh, yeah, that will bring his downfall. And there are a TON of blazekien users out there.
well what about mine?
Gyarados
Goodra
Pyroar
Ferrothorn
Togekiss (Paraflinch)
(secretweapon, so I cant tell)
Seems pretty balanced.
Thanks, there all IV breed, egg moved, EV trained, and all I need to do is grind! It took me forever to make this balanced of a team. Glad to hear a good opinion on it!
Of course you will need to test out the team to really know if it is good enough for you.
Yeah, I know, but I feel I can make this work somehow.
BURN KLEFKI BURN!!!
You will pay for that
:O
I like Klefki…
I despise that thing. I can just imagine the people at Gamefreak laughing when they created it…
DIE MAMOSWINE
You guys sounds like brutal murderers.
That is our goal
Wouldn’t be saying if your repeatedly swaggered
How pleasant…
I swear if you win by paraflinching!
eheheh
there will be blood, I guess .3.
lol you win this time, but i will never lose to you again
No i feel you let me win too easily
I did, i could of switched right to my venusaur after that wish to wish again and you a crit twice with Lava plume AND you got a burn
but Was Excadrill truly faster?
That is what i wonder, but sand rush makes it faster
Rematch?
Second floor of Temporal Tower and it’s a goddamn Monster House. FML
dat tower music tho.
Agreed! 😀
2nd best pokemon music ever!
Gonna utube it now!
Am I the only who thinks that the Battle Spot is where creativity goes to die? I swear, nothing but Blaziken, Gengar, and Garchomp
Hah online is where creativity goes to die.
true
Online is where you diminish all privacy and where to share all personal info.
Is this hinting at something?
Nah, just joking around.
your figuring this now?
they’re a buncha elitist who’ll use cheap tricks to win
my thoughts exactly
At least when we battle, were battling as friends
and more importantly call on each other’s crap
I like my Gengar!
You forgot Yveltal, Xerneas and Mewtwo
My gengar kills them all. Thunder, Sludge Bomb, and Shadow Ball.
Because people don’t know how to use them. I beat someone with an Yveltal, MegaBlaziken and Hydreigion, by using sub-par Pokemon
Sometime in the next week I’m gonna get a shiny, I can just feel it!
I wish you luck in your travels
Consecutive fish right now and it will be today.
Have to do homework right now. 😛
Can someone please help me evolve my Haunter and Phantump?
I could tomorrow….
Ok, thanks!
I currently have Gengar and Trevenant. levels 86 and 50, respectively.
WONDER TRADE TIME
I’ll join you with that sometime soon.
ok i have time i have like 20 boxes of pokemon to wonder trade
Wow traded charmander for charmeleon
That’s nothing! I traded weedle and got weedle!
…
Ikr the skill!
Porygon is my most hated Pokemon right now. Freaking Discharge on my Mudkip that isn’t even near its tile location got killed…
Yeah discharge hits everyone on the room. It’s so annoying
During my large wonder trade session i hope to get at least 1 shiny
Unlikely. I’ve gotten 1 shiny through Wonder Trade in almost 2 months.
Alrighty he’s the main Pokemon that’ll be used by team Eda Leader
When you first meet him
Sueyplex Ground/Fighting The Wrestling Pkm
“It coats its body in thick mud to repel damage, it attacks using powerful grapples and Throws”
and when you confront him
Warhog Ground/Fighting The Macho Pkm
“This powerful fighter regularly punches boulders to rubble, using its great power it can take on hundreds of opponents without rest”
Meet ginormount.
Think of a Minotaur but mixed with a Warthog and a Pro wrestler
and a powerful Submission!
You should try drawing these
Already getting “The Good Sketch Pad” and “The Good Sharpie”
put it on the forums.
So, is this a single two-staged pokemon?
I’m trying to decide if it should start as a round mud piggy
Round like spoink?
Yeah but more ruddy and a whole less psychic
I must EXP grind now! At this rate, Ithsme’s comp. team 2.0 will be battling in no time! Anyone want a spot on my victim list?
I believe I have a reservation for a AWESOMELY HEATED BATTLE
Ya I think your 3rd or 2nd.
Have they made a CreepyPasta about Gates to Infinity Keckleon?
Wut? Can you tell me about that?
Keckleon owns a room in each dungeon that is a shop. the floor is brightly colored, and on some squares there are items that you can pick up. When you leave you have to pay for them. You can decline, and if you do, he yells”Thief!” and tons of coies of himm attack you from all sides. It’s creepy.
Oh yeah he does that in all the games. There practically impossblt, but once I beat one!
Say an animal.
Northwestern Pacific Tree Octopus
Octopi!? In trees!?
Yes, it is entirely true and not fictitious in the slightest.
Totally!

an animal
Blue-footed Boobie.
Nah, maybe another time
Taco
Genius
That is way to much work. Like saying the animal rhino just takes to much time
XD
onychophora
you googled an obscure animal just now, didn’t you?
No. It’s my favorite animal, along with Glaucus Atlanticus.
fair enough
I agree that is my favorite bug EVER don’t you see me talk about it
Which one. Neither is a bug.
The Dragon Slug and you know what i mean by “bug”
I do. It’s so awesome!
