Winona is hot, omg
A lvl 13 Ralts was able to steamroll Brawley. I used to struggle with him in Emerald.
Well guys this game surprised me. I usually restart my game the first time I played it only exceptions are (Platinum because I hate it) and (Blue because nostalgia).
And Omega Ruby may be the 3rd. But it wasnt for nostalgia or because I hated it…
It was because I felt my playthrough was soo unique that I had grown attached to the little guy. I feel that what he went through, I also did.
I wont buy AS because i dont buy the second versions of the game. Anyway I have never experienced such a thrill in the E4 and a sense of accomplishment once I defeated them. I mean I had a team of underleveled, not EV trained, wrong nature and dont get me started on their IVs. But when I accomplished what I had with them. It felt special. Anyways guys. Dont focus your playthrough on the games little mechanics and enjoy it like the time when you were little.
I must go. I´ll be back in about 1 and a half or 2 weeks. These finals need my full attention. well anyway I hope I may have inspired some of you and…
Good luck on your Journey. Addio
Sincerely Sir Tomates
I have gotten attached to Pokemon as well. But I restarted.
Is Abra able to be caught first or second visit to Granite Cave?

Git Ut.
People on chat already answered Slowpoke.

Defensive you’re not gonna like this…
http://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/21935249/why-is-he-so-much-better-than-archie#reply
Already commented on that thread and kicked some magma ass :^)
Archie is good.
Archie fan art is not.
Search “ORAS Courtney” on images
literally foot fetish the google page
Oh My God
Oh My God
Oh My God
Your avatar.
You are counterattacking me! This must be stopped!
I saw some good fanart that wouldn’t get me band so I used it ;~:
Courtney is hawter than Shelly IMO
But I ship ShellyxArchie so much.
I much prefer Shelly because courtney talks like a robot and it scares me, and courtney seems too self conscious and its weird.
Show yourself womyn
Clearly you didn’t play OR.
I did, bought the 200 potion pack.
She speaks like she’s being forced to say what’s she’s saying
She’s better in AS, anyways
In the Battle Resort.
Go, why was AS such a good game?
OR you could have the better opinion instead of following AS the majority does.
Alpha Sapphire sold better than Omega Ruby.
Good to know taste is still out there
She was forced to act that. The grunts even tell you that Maxie was emotionally abusive to the team, her more than the grunts since she is an admin. The more you interact with her the more and more she comes out of her shell.
Why does she try to hitch a ride on Maxie’s wiener then?
Because Tabitha is the favorite and judging by Maxie’s personality whenever a grunt screwed up she would be blamed also. And after enough of being treated like a dissapointment anyone would try to impress the person they look up to.
I played the game and It didn’t go that in depth, lol
It’s heavily implied.
it was more like “Maxie ass kissing simulator”
Same with Matt I guess. If you want to throw out backstory.
Matt thought as Archie as his equal, though
He was all about “making him happy”.
I like creepy girls…
Scary girls…
The kind that talk like robotés.
What about your Band? What is it called?
Banned
Pokemon characters are good. Pokemon fandom, well there’s some things wrong with it.
Archie Fan Art is (usually) good. He can’t help that he’s hot.
Ooh it’s like Christmas. Lemme see.
This makes me sick. Burn all the magmaggots in the lava of their Camerupts!
This comment game me cancer.
Primal Cancer.
There are treatments for that.
You’re right, team magma cures it.
By melting it away with shit taste
I never liked Kool-Aid anyway.
Downvoted+Flagged for nudity (like I do with all your comments ;))
Okay… I’m in charge of that. And what nudity?
#Sarcasm bud
He has a speedo.
I WAS BEING SARCASTC -_-
Want me to get the one without the speedo?
I will slit your throat… again.
Ban anchor for violence.
But I’m still trying to get out blood stains in the knife!
Just hand it to me boi.
*sigh* But it’s your turn to wash it.
It’s the same person anyways, Team Aqua is /vp/’s fave team
Literally the same person has been making threads with Maxie’s losing animation
Team Aqua!
Lol, after 40 hours, I beat Winona.
I love Hoenn.
Anyways, I like this 😀 Swift swim Swampert + Rain, Rock Tomb (wrecks Flying types and lowers speed), after Rain dies out, Rock Tomb has lowered Speed a ton so, and then Muddy Water or Ice Punch, it’s great
O.O your 40 hours in and just beat Winona and I’m 45 hours in and SR for Dialga lol
I know, cause I enjoy my games
Winona and Roxanne are bae
The Pokemon League theme is so intimidating
I’ve never understood why Courtney has horns… xD
Cause they’re evil.
If you are playing Omega Ruby they are evil… if you are playing Alpha Sapphire Team Aqua is evil… silly rabbit, Trix are for kids.
No. Team Magma is a bunch of ass holes in AS. Team Aqua becomes your friends.
The mean boys are the best boys.
Exactly. Who wants to be friends with the enemy?
Me if they look like that.
Cuz she’s a hot demon Courtney > shelly
Agreed
Water Godess > Robot with daddy issues
prove me wrong.
God Damn
Well I mean, either way they’d be fun to do
Yea I can’t choose I like both of them
Yeah really xD
Did I just get 4 upvotes for this omg
Oh lag lol
Genius Beauty > Desperate for Archie
Game
Your personality < Desperate for Archie
Not a bi*ch > “Wears too much make-up”
Shelly worked for Devon, also is called intelligent on main site.
Courtney canon strives for Maxie
Sooo
Genius Beauty > Desperate for Maxie :^)
(Even if she was desperate for Archie, at least she’d have good taste)
AS is literally muscle bara.
Because it’s so bad yet good
She’s the devil
And that’s why I luv her <3
Exactly
Ah Screw it! i don’t have the patience for SR all day!
I want an Image of shelly from her days working at Devon
Her and Archie met Jirachi
She Matt and Archie.
If only I had the skills
ShellyxArchie confirmed!!!
Archie saw that ass from a mile away and came out of hibernation just to get a peek
Jirachi, not Archie.
hwat
It’s getting real… the ShellyxArchie is in your head. It won’t stop!
It’s MattxArchie. The game pretty much confirmed that. XD
ShellyxArchie
CourtneyxMaxie
Shelly x Courtney
You saw that too? 😐
xD
oh yes I did
No. Archie and Shelly pretty much have nothing to do with each. At all. XD
I like to think of the as brother and sister, as Shelly really really cares about Archie and his well being, as a sister would about her brother.
That’s what I thought of too. I was only joking about MattxArchie for a long time. I figured it would be ArchiexShelly. No. It really DID end up being ArchiexMatt.
And Matt x Brendan.
“I’ll smash you up real good”
Matt is the most open Pokemon character ever.
I didn’t play AS, okay.
Play it.
No lol
Play it.
Make it.
Now it’s time for X-MAS stuff 🙂
Ew.
It takes me a while to get into christmas mood, Give it a week and there’ll be at least 5 christmas hats in my avatar
I haven’t been able to get in the Christmas mood since I started talking to guys. Now I don’t want to spend it with my parents or sisters.
I wanna spend Christmas with a lover as well. And aren’t you take. 😐
I am. But have only seen him three times in the last year…. May get to see him in a couple of weeks though…
Ahhhhhhh Dialga/Palkia theme! So good! >.<
Anytime sexy. RF
YES! Caught Dexter the Dialga in a basic pokeball!
I thought you said basic bitch XD
But congrats!
That poor Dialga… You named it Dexter…?
I like how they made Shelly and Tabitha notice that what Archie and Maxie was doing was bad at the weather institute. That didn’t happen in the originals. And I’m guessing Matt and Courtney will probably still try to achieve that dream in the Delta Episode. That’s what I think since saw that ending with Matt in Mossdeep.
I think that was the point where I thought AS’s plot was way better than OR’s.
Shelly showed far more emotion.
Also she slapped that bitch in the weather institute
Seriously.
Courtney showed a lot of emotion at the very end though.
Matt and Archie made up.
I prefer Team Aqua…
But my Groudon. <3
I love the games as a whole. But Team Aqua for life. They have so much personality.
More emotion than Matt and Archie crying together?
*now kiss*
😮
It’s true. Bara Sapphire. Literally.
It’s sweet what happens but evil and stuff.
Courtney is obsessed with music and singing.
She’ll write a song about the expanding of the land.
Shelly will write a song about expanding Dong
and how she achieves it
Glacia keeps hitting Blizzard -_-
Is it hailing?
Yes ;-;
She keeps hailing after I rain dance ;-;
Then its 100% acc
She would not stop until she got a hail in ;~;
Random, but did they change when a pokemon faints as a mega it’s not a mega anymore?
It no longer is a Mega and can not Mega again for that battle
I was confused for a moment.
It’s why Steven rekd me so many times
And Confuse Ray…
Don’t forget Light Screen!
Glacia nearly destroyed my team.
(My team was crappy anyway. :p)
That’s why she’s ma bæ
that glare <3

oo

I just got Fly yesterday and used it for the first time today, and I must say, I love how you can finally fly to routes and non-city locations, such as Sea Mauville and Mt. Pyre.

Manectric lv45
Altaria lv46
Minun is my cute contest winner.
Peasant.
Present
I won all Master Rank Contest.
Peasant
Your team is over powered for that point….
Yet I still almost lost to Winona because of Double Team.
I hated Swellow.
My Skitty is a Master of Cute and it won me the E4. Delcatty is Meh.
Delcatty is amazing because of its versatile moveset.
That’s why I love normal types.
Plus it gets a little more bulk then Skitty, so it can take a hit.
but aren’t all moves normal type?
With Normallize yes, without it no.
is yours normalize?
Cute Charm
Mine was. It was annoying as fuck.
At least you get stab on everything
but ghost types are booty
There’s a really good strategy that involves a delcatty, a gengar and Haunter however
Really?
STAB Fire Blast + Blizzard with additional effects
Nom.
It’s basically skill swap and entrainment
What level did you evolve it at?
45
Okay.
My Delcatty eatidup you mana mk
That makes no sense.
That’s why I said it.
It is rumored that Archie and Maxie used to be on the same team (said by a Grunt). I wonder what was that team’s name…
Team ArchMax
Team E
I’m not kidding, that’s actually what it was called.
Look in sea mauville.
Yeah. It actually is xD
There names both end with -ie I guess they will always be grouped together
Team E
Emerald
DELTA EMERALD GUYS ITS HAPPENINDBGJLZX
UNOVA CONFIRMED!
Wallace is Lisia’s Uncle and you can do a contest with her and him.
DELTA EMERALD CONFIEAOSJFAIOGHAIGJ
HE ALSO MENTIONS WALLACE
WALLACE CONFIMRED!
JUAN NOT WALLACE
Juan has 4 letters.
Wallace has 7 letters.
7-4 is 3.
3=triangle
Also both Wallace and Juan have no “I”‘s in their name
I sounds like “eye”
What triangle do you know with an I in it?
Illuminati confirmed
HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED
UNOVA CONFIRMED
Team Maquma
Team Archie.
*Maxie
Where do you think the Ie comes from?
Both of them you mom
Archie is the Daddy.
They’re brother and sister
Wait… so either Archie or Maxie… is a girl?
Maxie. Explains the outfit.
So Courtney was lesbian the whole time
So Magma is a bunch of lesbians and Aqua is a couple of muscular lovers? Makes sense.
Hiking attire makes you a girl? Does that make me a lesbian?
That’s not hiking attire.
It’s also not something a girl would wear.
It is.
I dunno. If I took the advice of Aqua fans everyone would be in a skintight outfit.
Is there a problem with that?
Yes. There is.
Yeah, there is. I know you would complain if there were fat people walking around in skin tight outfits.
So the world would basically be team magma’s admins?
Everybody isn’t a bodybuilder either.
“Local News: World is suddenly sexy”
Seriously djjalpha sapphire I love Hoenn?
Do you even know sexy? How do you not luv the robots?
It’s also not something that makes Archie any better just because he doesn’t know how to wear long coats. That nimrod will freeze his face off.
It’s a tropical region
Not if they flood the land.
It’d still be a tropical region
Yes but the water is cold. -_-
it’d still be a tropical region
Awakening Kyogre causes storms, storms block the sun, no sun lower temperatures, rain also makes the body colder wearing a waterproof suit doesn’t work when you don’t zip it up.
so in that case, if its raining during summer, I’ll die from hypothermia?
Good discussion guys
Fucking infinite rain from Kyogre. Let’s forget the team we are praising has a plan just because they look good.
If the sun was too warm it would melt the polar ice caps, flooding the world, forest fires would kill tons, and people including Maxie would die from wearing such warm uniforms.
I’m not gonna say that’s smarter than the whole waterproof suit thing because it’s not, but it doesn’t make team aqua any better.
It does, which is why alpha sapphire sold more.
What can I say, Alpha is Alpha :^)
Opinions are opinions I guess.
Red turtle necks and stockings are so in during the christmas season. All the gurls lately have been stealing Maxie’s look
He hikes Courtney’s peepee
We didn’t ask for the name of your fan club
Do you have my Secret Base? How did you know?
Omfg xD
And you guys need to go online so I can add you to my secret base!
I have a list of who I want in!
I offered it last night and no one wanted it…
I haven’t been here as often as I’d like
They quit working together because of different views. We’ve been thinking these views were the ones where one species should be greater than the other. But what if the real resin they quit working together was because Maxie wasn’t a fan of the GTL life?
I wonder what Dock did too.
My Normal Type Gym is almost complete!
Just waiting until tomorrow to see what clearance items are on the Lilycove Department Store Rooftop!
Hopefully some new pokedolls or the city replicas!
And you people need to go online so I can get your secret bases!
The sell planks and stairs so keep an eye out.
And do I just pass by you our something online?
Just be online when someone else is to get their base.
You just have to be sure to favorite it so it stays.
Sharpedo dolls please.
Just ride one in the ocean
I do.
Better than a doll
Just kidding go get the doll
I want a Mega Sharpedo plush.
Only $300 on Amazon!
Fucking seriously?! It exists?!
Everything exists
But at this point it’s probably made by someone or nintendo is really fast at making products
Okay…..
I looked it up.
No results.
Can we up the number of items we can put in our base? I can’t put anymore things…
I think that’s the limit
D:<
The limit depends on the base, mine has a super high item limit so I can do what I want huehue
Awe…. Looks like I’ll have to move…
I’m fighting Steven now, wish me luck!
It’s funny how Steven got a 3D model and Diantha didn’t. She’s such a scrub.
well i’ve wasted my entire day….
Anyone else getting a “you need to update” message fron ORAS?
There is patch 1.1 in the eshop if you don’t have it yet.
In the ending they mixed in town themes like they did in FRLG I love it!
