Sorry for the slight delay, as I got struck with a severe headache and a bad temper. But I persevered to bring you the ultimate winners of the PJM 2014 Writing Contest!
I received 10 round two submissions, all of them which were excellent! You all did a great job guys. Choosing two winners proved to be a daunting task. But the big winner was a clear-cut case for me, as I absolutely loved his history of Pokémon before Pokémon even existed. So I hereby declare the following Pokéjungler as the absolute first winner of the PJM Writing Contest:
James Hurst with Capsule Monsters: The Pre-evolution to Pokémon
The second winner was a though choice between four favorites, but I ultimately went with:
ShinyXatu with MissingNo.: The Acceptable Glitch
Both will get contacted for further details regarding fine tuning their articles within the course of next week. And of course, we can’t forget to mention their prize. Each will get a free printed copy of the magazine, including free shipping :). The others will get the chance of seeing their articles up on the site, starting as early as next week. I’ll contact them if that’ll be the case.
While I get back to work off-screen, I would like to address the confusion that arose around the Art Contest. This is most likely my own fault as I was extremely exhausted writing the introduction article and seemingly forgot to write a general description.
The purpose of the Art Contest is to receive high quality (in technical terms) digital art commonly found on sites such as Deviantart. The winner will see his article taking up one whole page, so it has to be something suitable to be blown up so much. It will be very much like a big ad in a magazine, but without the advertising. For technical details, click here. If you still have some questions about the contest, be sure to hit me up with an email (found in the article) or just shoot it at me in the comments.
I’m off for now, my head still pounds with the force of one million suns. Happy commenting, and don’t be afraid of being banned quickly, the Headmaster wasn’t trying to intimidate anyone :).

This post was brought you by Silph Co., makers of the best Pokémon Capturing Devices out there.
Can you guys rate my team?? :3 Slurpuff, Scizor, Chandelure, Hippowdon, Scrafty, and Milotic.
Can’t really rate without a battle, to be honest. 🙂
Chemistry and type wise though. 😛
Well, let’s see here…
Most living things are composed of Carbon…
Slurpuff has sweet and sugar, so Glucose, C6H1206…
Chandelure is a chandelier, so has some Iron element… Fe
Hippowdon has sand, so there are traces of Quartz.. or Calcium Carbonate, I think…
….
Kidding, it seems unique,
LMFAO, thanks. xD
-1/1000
Quite a Unique team :3
Thanks!
-0/0

Black Star Flash is very skilled. 🙂
It looks great.
If only I have a draw pad, I can do so much more art.
I just don’t get how people do it with a mouse.
Had to change my ingame hair color today. Blonde was causing to many distractions. ;n;
How so?
Every passerby and their great grandma kept trying to trade and battle and I just wanted to hatch eggs. I changed my hair color and it stopped. So I’m sticking to that theory.
Huh… I left it as black and no one would trade or accept my request. I guess you have a point.
I smell conspiracy.
Too*
as a blonde I find this racist
I concure
You had brown hair in dat picture.
He is also half Houndoom if you haven’t notice. XD
I meant in the picture that he posted when alot of us posted our actual selves xD
*Houndour
dirty blonde whatever
As a brown-haired teenager I find this sexist.
You’re not natural.
BLOND POWER!
Again I concur
As a brown haired hazel eyed teen I find this pokemonist.
As a Zekrom I laugh at you puny humans.
As Miley Cyrus I’ll twerk on you.
Joke on you , you have no butts.
I have 3 butts.
More than I need to know.
@austinrakestraw:disqus battle me or i will come over to your house and slap you silly remember i know where you live.
That’s not very gentleman like. D:

Congrats! 3 eggs is one of the lowest I’ve ever seen! :O
Didn’t someone here hatched a shiny Osawott on their first egg?
I envy some other people’s luck xD
Then why is it no…
It’s my first Masuda shiny.
Congratulation!
I’m still waiting for Ithsme’s turn to say that.
And mine as well.
HOLY DOOKIE BUTT THAT WAS QUICK
It’s Female and Timid. I’ll take what I can get!
who cares its still a twinkle twinkle
Still going to use it though! I’ll just train it in Special Attack and Speed since it’s Timid.
Is it Timid or Jolly that decreases Special Attack?
Jolly. Timid decreases Attack, so it’s not bad actually.
Ah, I always get those two mixed up. X)
JELLY-O
You forgot a no.

Very very.

Gamma Ray’s got a new album coming out the same day!
Ah my friend listens to gamma ray 🙂
HOLY CRAP THATS AWESOME
Ok I’m gonna explain my dream in parts.
It is too sexy to explain in one post.
On so these people were in it (ranked from most in it to least in it from top being most):
Djja
Brit
Noivern
Wurmple
Earthen
Bastiodon
Ithsme
Xatu
I was in somebody else’s dream? Ay caramba…
Don’t worry you’re at the bottom.
You wre in it the least.
What did I do, streak across the Jungle or something?
I like where this is going….
And also Ziia for some reason.
“Some reason.”
Yay
Tell me I found turtqouise. I did in my dream last night.
What do I win?
Haven’t Bread, Bageled or Sandwhiched and Pokemon in a while. What should i Masuda for? 😮
Your PJL team
I don’t have a PJL team .-.
Whats a pjl team?
PokeJungle League.
They have their own Pokemon League with Gym Leaders, Elite 4, Champion, and Frontier Brains.
Eevee! Almost all the shiny eeveelutions look good
Hmm. Yes Shiny Umbreon or Espeon.
I prefer shiny umbreon, but competitvely, I’d choose espeon
why not both? (or all of them :P)
There are too many xD
So heavy how’s the mega lati? I hope to join you soon
Death.
Nice BUT mine wouldn’t be so easy to beat 😉
This is a situation I never expected to be in…I have to find another target.
Why not Bestbuy?
I see it.
What you did.
It’s there.
How do I respond to the perfect rebuttal? XD
This beats my Chemistry reply to Chico. XD
Meeeee
Y not Wynaught?
Turtwig
try the one on the upper left.
Hmm I think you should shift to walmart for selection XD
Turtqouise = Pain + Pain in spanish
Turtqouise = Chico divided by zero
So Turtquoise = Error (Does Not Exist)
p.s. Dolores is pains in Spanish :3 (iirc)
Ok so in the beginning of the dream,
Djja fell out of the sky and landed on Xatu and he died.
o_o
Your head, it’s there, and I’m concerned about it.
You only have dreams about people you love bæ
But when you dream of somebody you love dying, what does that make you? *cue Jeopardy music!*
Who is ShinyLickitung!
WRONG! It’s Queen Latifah.
Who is Bubby the Whale.
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120908145844/flapjack/images/4/43/Bubbie.png
If that’s from Misadventures of Flapjack, it means my memory is outstanding.
Correct. 200 Points.
Haven’t seen that show in 4 years XD

Then Ithsme and Wurmple were the only ones who showed up to Xatu’s funeral, and Vwalah was there too.
He took a Sucker Punch to the stomach. Tragic.
I would’ve gone .-.
YAYYYYYYYYYYYY-
Wait, I don’t wanna die!

Just watched Attack on Titan. It’s…interesting. I still can’t call that girl by her name. I’ll always read it as “Misaka”. What have you done A Certain Series?
Mikasa
Misaka Mikoto. *sigh* I still can’t do it!
Ignore her last name xD
I still read it as Misaka.
Think of it as “my house” in Spanish, or Mi casa (Mikasa).
I remember reading that. I think you told me before. Still cant’.
I never told anyone about that?
I rarely discuss AoT here.
Oh. Then it was someone else then.
