  1. Zekrom is the best out of these (Rayquaza not far behind)

    I would have picked Groudon or Yveltal had they won their respective votes.

  2. Err, uhh,, good morning everyone. I know I made an overdramatic, idiotic show last time, but honestly I really feel bad. I’ve calmed down significantly, and I’d like to apologize. I’m very very very sorry about that, I know that I won’t get everyone’s forgiveness in the drop of a hat, but I’d like to start. I want to clear things out as when I’m bothered by mistakes/bad stuff I do, it mentally affects me, whether I know it or not, so to prevent anything else and to clear up the mood, I’d like to dearly apologize for my prior arrogance, selfishness, aggressiveness and most of all political tendencies. I just hope that in time you can all forgive me, I promise that i’m turning over a new leaf.

    • Well, insecurity seems to be winning the comments.

      Personally I think Charizard has as good a chance as winning as Rayquaza and Giratina.

      Giratina might edge it due to the large amount of Sinnoh fans on here. But Charizard being the original popular starter and childhood favourite of many people looks strong…

      Unfortunately not much to be said about the other four. They don’t compare in terms of popularity to Gen 1, 3 and 4 mascots (although having said that Lugia has a strong start)

        • Maybe. I just find it funny there are more people commenting about disliking Charizard than there are about liking him…And yet he’s still winning for now.

        • Personally I don’t think Xerneas deserves to be there over Yveltal and yet here we are…

          The later generation mascots either seem to not have had as long in the limelight or were just unable to gather a following as big as the first 4 generations.

          • Yveltal is ugly though, Xerneas is the only good of the XYZ trio. You’re right about the limelight though

          • Xerneas is actually horrible looking though., Still don’t know what I’m supposed to be seeing…. Yveltal is a majestic and masterful embodiment of destruction.

          • first of all how dare you!

            but seriously though, we all know this is subjective, clearly we have very different views on what makes a pokemon look good, because imo yveltal looks like trash 😛

          • That is indeed very apparent based on this poll. Seems my opinion was shared with the majority on only 2 out of 7 occasions.

            *crieswithobvioussuperiority* :p

  3. Omfg…… Why does Amazon keep putting up better and slicker Switch cases, better and nicer than the one I bought
    First with the big carrying case which holds the joycons and screen nicely
    Then this giant one that can hold everything from the hub and the wires,
    And now the sleek thick case made by the guys who made the XL case which I’ve had for years and like immensely
    And then the hybrid cover stand which is like a standard iPad case and really nice after I bought the plastic adjustable stand
    And all these other swagging accessories that would really make

    I want to buy these things but I don’t want to burn my wallet
