We all know May wanted to be the star of Pokémon Contests, but did she even have a choice in the first place? Zack Flavin looks at one of Pokémon’s gender stereotypes.

Showdown battle just for fun? :3
Yea 😀
Whats your name on showdown?
ShinyNoivern
Are we doing random battle?
Yup
Also i am in the main lobby
I’m currently downloading Wii Party U from the Mario Kart 8 promotion. It takes up over 4GB of storage, so I’ll probably need an external hard drive soon. XD
Ahahaha, girls shouldn’t be allowed to get out of kitchen, let alone doing contests.
Aren’t you…never mind.
lol
lol
lol
lol
LMFAOROFL
No.
Go to bed. :3
You’re an odd one. It’s 11:32 am o__________o
12:32PM Over here ^_^
Yes, yes I am. 9:33 AM for me.
Its 11:33 here
LOL I’m sorry but he made me do just that
Oh Sexism
What can’t you do
It isn’t sexism when you tell the truth.
THIS!
So this is where everyone’s been at
It don’t matter just WT until we gotta bring my Dog to the groomer (they’ll need all the man power to keep that powder keg still)
cool. what are you wonder trading away?
A ton of Woopers….want one?
And the worse part is i still haven’t breed one with everything but speed
Yes I want one! Are you online?
Yeah but let me get a female out of the Bank (that way if ur MM it’ll be in a Dive Ball)
sweeeett!! take your time! I’ll be signing on then
Just the lowdown
all of them are Relaxed and has _____
What’s ____ lol?
Like always great job on the comic! Lol I didn’t know how to read it at first like do I read up down up down or left to right then left to right XD but really I liked this! And it brings up a good point about the anime. I happened to really like the use of contests in the show. Plus battling was part of pokemon contests so…
Today, I will continue my adventure in Black 2 and hopefully make my way to my first soft-resetting target. I will get every interactable Pokemon shiny, at some point.
Well hopefully your third eye can help you XD and good luck keeping your patience. I tried with giratina my brother said it was shiny locked but I don’t believe it and now I am WAY past it
What’s your first target?
The starter
No, I’m skipping the starter. I guess my first target will be Cobalion.
Good luck buddy Just so you know it might take weeks
That’s what makes it fun!!! All that hard work will eventually pay off!
Yeah, and the entire ordeal could take years. But now with Pokemon Bank, the end result will be so much more rewarding 😀
I have to beat the game in order to get to my first target. I can get the item for it in the haunted house next to twist mountain though
Including Hidden Grottos?
Those are shiny locked.
really? huh never knew that..
Yep. But you can rebreed them to be shiny, it’s just for some reason they shiny locked the stationery one’s in the grotto.
maybe it’s like roaming pokemon, where once you encounter it it’ll stay the same..
b/c i heard that they are gender-locked, but idk if thats the grotto itself or the pokemon…
Same here!
Nope, not the starters or Hidden Grottos. Just legendaries.
Goodluck!! I’ve been trying to soft reset for a shiny fennekin starter on my digital copy of Y but i haven’t had any luck.
how long you been going for?
Lol I like how you guys were starting an lol chain below
Actually it’ll be a while I gotta go now and apparently i haven’t stored any extras
So i’ll catch u later Heavs
That’s cool 😉
I’ll catch ya later bud
Trying out a Flying-type team.
Mr. Comic Professor. Try telling girls to participate in contests in Kanto, Johto, Unova and Kalos (in the games of course)! XD
There were contests in sinnoh?
I knew hoenn
I remember there was one in Hearthome but i cant remember if there were any others…
OH YEAH the one where your mom gives you the suit and you can put like balloons on pokemon XD I’ve done that. Where you met fantina right?
yeah that place :3
Lol I just realized my post below said battling in contests. I thought about it. Only in the anime on the games no battling
Wouldn’t it be nice if contests in the games really were like their anime counterparts?
Guys i don’t feel like MMing…
Neither do I-Pseudo legends take so long to hatch >.<
But I need Shiny Bagon/Salamence in my life lol
I stopped like a month ago. There is no target that I want to MM. Also I still haven’t train up the babies.
Guys! An old Pokejungle user by the name of KingAnteros drew this for me ^-^
That’s awesome :3
It’s…
Beautiful ;~;
I love snorunt.
Apparently there was an extra page from the Corocoro that wasn’t scanned >.> Mega Ludicolo everyone!
http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/164/8/d/mega_ludicolo___by_utsuhofanboy24000-d7m8c7t.jpg
I saw that. People are silly, and sillier if they actually believe it.
It was intended as a joke by the original artist xD
I finished Rocket Raccoon from Guardian of the Galaxies. That took forever because of the shading. (And also I was distracted many times because of the Internet.)
ooooh realistic drawing wise or comic booky?
Realistic. I don’t like the comic book style.
Post it? 😮
Can’t. I won’t be able to scan it until late afternoon, and since it’s a bit stricter with the “Pokémon relevant only material” policy.
XD
What a sight to wake up to.
Isn’t she gorgeous?
She is 😀
Guys I just realized. I think that milotic will be dragon tbh it has the fairy egg type
Because it has FAIRY egg moves, you think it will be DRAGON?
Wot.
I want Fairy/Ice or Fairy/Water mega :3
I think it will be water / fairy to counter part bat bish mega gyrados
Not counter part just counter XD
Interesting read from a Polygon article (http://www.polygon.com/2014/6/19/5745732/what-is-the-pokemon-company ). I already touched upon the subject and it seems like my suspicions were correct. Here’s the most interesting part:
Nintendo works primarily with The Pokémon Company on production and distribution of each Pokémon game. The assembly line works like this: Game Freak develops each game and gives the final copy to Nintendo, who then produces and ships it around the world. Nintendo also handles marketing for each game.
The close collaboration between the companies often leads to confusion on who’s doing what — a problem that isn’t lost on employees of The Pokémon Company. Using thePokémon TV application — a free service that allows users to watch the animated show on mobile devices and tablets — as an example, Novickas said that people often incorrectly attribute their work as Nintendo’s.
“Regardless of how people are saying it,” Novickas said, “it is interesting that there is this separate entity that is creating these Pokémon products that a lot of people don’t realize are creating them.”
Lol pikachu mon is fun
Page isn’t working. :
Get back to work, Paige.
Was a typo that I corrected immediately, though 🙂
I always have those moments in games where I save then I’m like “Wait, did I save?”
So I save again because I think I forgot to save.
I turned off the game so quickly I thought I turned if off during the save.
What happens if you do that..
It doesn’t save XD
Oh…
I heard that if you did that it restarts your file
yes! except yesterday I got a perfect mawile and then forgot to save….
I picked treecko yet I STILL had trouble with Roxanne.
I warn you, people who haven’t played Hurrrrrrrrrn,
Bring a shroomish along with you to Roxanne.
That nosepass shows no mercy.
Owning ONE pokemon with a type advantage can’t save you ;~;
Or grind Treecko and evolve it straight to Sceptile. 😀
Do eeeeet
I just taught it Bullet Seed and rekd her. Rock Tomb hurt tho D:
Me too
Is bullet seed still a TM? 😀
Unfortunately not D: I guess we’ll have to settle for Absorb xD
I beat Roxanne with a Treecko… XD
I had to grind like a desperate stripper ;~;
I didn’t have to. I just had a Treecko, Taillow, and Nincada (Cut Slave.) on my team! XD
How!!! XD
Her rock tomb hurt!! XD
and the potions…
those terrible terrible potions
I had Bullet Seed. The guy in front of the flower shop gives it to you! I thought it to my Treecko and very easily swept her team!
Bullet seed isnt a tm anymore ;~;
In R/S/E it was! 😉
I actually hope they dont bring back that huge Exp share.
That just made things TOO easy.
Or at least give it the old function
Then turn it off? It’s very useful for EV training. D:
I dpnt want people saying “Omg the hoenn e4 was tooo easy”
like bish u used a giant ass exp share u aint got nuthin
I know, make it accessible AFTER you beat the Champion for the first time. I think that’s fair.
YES!!!!!! 😀
um.. what’s up with dicie’s website?
What?
no, just wanted to find out how it is going!
Oh, sorry!
Our view count has drastically decreased over the last few days, but more articles (from me, particularly) are coming out in the next few days! 😀
also, i went to go check out chatango, and i saw some pretty nasty words. and it said you wrote it?
I get a little ghetto outside of PJN. Sorry about that 😀
We need to advertise more, somewhat.
We could but couldn’t. Wyvern got all butt hurt when Percy linked to her article for the first time ._.
-_- It was completely stupid. :3
But oh well
AM I the only one who thinks team rocket is getting dry?
Like in gen 1 and 2 they were good
then in gen 3 they started saying what they would do with the pokemon when they get it and draw up a whole scenario which I liked so that was new
Then they just got rid of that
and then they started going downhill
I agree. Hopefully Madame X and Team Flare will make up for them. I also would like a villain like Hunter J. She was great.
Butch and Cassidy returning would be nice
Biff*
Yeah! It’s been so long.
who wants a showdown battle with me!?
I do!! 😀
ok! whats your user?
I need to put my team together on this computer first lol
no prob! My user is PokeMania88
Thank you I’ll call you up when I’m ready! :3
cool!
I will battle you in the mean time I am Huntark, lets go to main lobby
ok
See you there!
#HOENNLYFE (refresh)
I luv eet ;~;
I should make a card.
I want to make a card, too!! Except i have no idea how…
Here’s a link to one: http://pokecharms.com/trainer-card-maker/
That’s funny because the trainer is one of Sinnoh’s Frontier Brains.
So what?
Guys!! Incase you ALL HAVE MISSED ME!! I wont be here a lot right now because my wifi is down! Soooo I’ll be checking in here once a day at least 😀 (Obviously checking for any MEGA MILOTIC related news)
Am I the only one that thinks contests working like they do in the anime won’t work….unless they allow us to do move combinations and actually control the Pokemon and how they move e.t.c
I think they should to amie style view.
And if you’re doing a smart contest
you only use smart moves
And it depends on the combination of moves you do
like If you use sand tomb then gust you make a sand tornado or something idk
are you ready?
Not yet XD
One more pokemon:3
ok!
They should just follow what they did in R/S/E/D/P/Pt. The contest weren’t broken. It was easier to do it that way!
I agree. Just keep the standard formula, it worked and it was fun
Well… The contest were different from Hoenn to Sinnoh
In what way?
Hoenn’s were better I didn’t like all the dancing and dressing up in Sinnoh.
Well in Sinnoh they had the whole dance thing and the dress up thing (in which my artistic expertise was mocked and feelings were hurt)
Ah. Well I never did contest so I didn’t know! XD
