And it seems the girl was a ghost all along...Pokemon and their ghost girls I tell you...

It's five days for me. Guess changing time due to daylight savings set it back.

That's an interesting story though. Wonder why it is like that?

It's a shame we never even find out the mystery to who that ghost girl is. I'd love to learn how she ended up in Phoebe's room, but I have a feeling she's just an easter egg that won't be explored again in the future.

wha- . . .what?

I was hoping zoro wouldhave a fair shot because i love one piece but this sounds like an impossible win to an absurd degree. . .

erza is probably one of the most op character that i know of.I love fairy tail,i really do,but erza is just broken even in her own universe,her power allows her to "reequip" into any armor that suits the situation.So you know fire attacks=fire armor, lighting=lighinting armor,Vines? Wheel of 1000 swords armor.Oh you have the same power as me,well get rekted by me in a wedding dress(legit happened)I mean when the author of the series pretty much says she wins,just because shes erza its a problem.If we had to have a one piece character fight a fairy tail character i would Natsu vs Luffy or Gray vs Sanji were

[Aurane]

Looking through my old Pokémon idea files on my computer lead to this little cute mechanic I made pre gen 5. Its pretty broken by the way. But its fun.

Spoiler: Combination Attacks

What is a Combination Attack? Well, in short, its the use of two moves at one time, but not in the literal sense. A Combination Attack is two different moves fused together in one move slot. There are rules as to what moves can be fused and how fusing works.

So first off, by paying $3,000 to use a machine called the Combination Machine, you can take two moves from a Pokémon's movepool- not just the current four- and enfuse them to create a new move. Now you might be thinking, "obviously there's got to be a catch" and there is.

First thing is that you can only have one Combination Attack. Fused moves can still be learned and used, but if the move was in your Pokemon's moveset, it will be replaced with the Combination Attack.

The second thing is that it doesn't mix effects. When you fuse two moves, you're basically taking one move with its effect, making it stronger then before, and then adding the new type of the second move. So for example, let's fuse two moves now; Ember and Thundershock. Thundershock would be on the receiving end while Ember is giving. Thundershock now deals a little more damage (half of the base damage of the giver is given to the receiver, which I believe is 60 together), has a chance to paralyze, but is a Fire attack now. There is an exception to the effect rule. If you mix two moves with the same effect, you'll come out with a more powerful effect. For example, fusing Quick Attack with Ice Shard creates a 60 BP Ice Shard with 2+ priority instead of 1+. Weavile likes this. Dragonite doesn't.

The third rule is that the two fusing moves can't be stronger then 50 BP. So no, you can't make a more powerful Dragon-Type Extremespeed. But you CAN create more powerful priority attacks this way. For example; you can fuse a type of the same type together just to create a more powerful attack of the original. So Bubble + Aqua Jet= 60 BP Aqua Jet. A powerful combination can include two 50 BP attacks to create a 75 BP attack. In some Pokémon's case, like Breloom, you may want to fuse a weaker move with another move to ensure it still gets a Technician boost, which in Mach Punch's case, its actually fine because from a 50 BP attack, you're slapping 25 down on it, making it deal 65 BP, which is just below Tech range.

When a move is fused, it gets renamed in accordance to what was fused. So the prementioned Ember + Thundershock = Burning Shock. I honestly don't know how the game would handle that. Possibly a random name generator or something.

Anyways, I'm not going to add anymore to this. Its not in my range of interests but its still a funny mechanic I conjured all those years ago. *sniff* to be young again...

Adaptability doesn't really matter when all Eevelutions have only one standard ability
My bias says Jolteon but I don't know how useful she is competitively(especially with such a bad coverage for a sweeper) though you should either go with that or Espeon, since they have the highest Sp.Atk and Spd
Glaceon, Vaporeon and Sylveon might be useful but they're not fast so they'd be bulkier attackers, and Vapereon prefers a defensive moveset, Glaceon doesn't have the type to be slow and I never triedc Sylveon

 

[Aurane]

I have a Modest Azelf. It is worth EV training? I was thinking full Special Attack and full Speed to turn it into a sweeper. Thoughts?

I personally perfer Timid to ensure its as fast as possible. Azelf gets Nasty Plot, so any buffs to Speed is very good. Doesn't mean it can't operate outside of Timid though. With a Modest nature, max EVs in Sp. Attack and a Life Orb, Azelf can be a very frightening opponent to most while still being relatively fast.

Nasty Plot Sweeper

Azelf@Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Modest
EVs: 252 Sp.Att, 252 Speed, 6 Sp. Def
Moveset: Psyshock/Psychic, Nasty Plot,Flamethrower, Energy Ball/Shadow Ball

If you have any questions, tag me. I might be going to bed soon.

I also have a Modest Eevee with Adaptability. What should I evolve it into?

Jolteon or Espeon.

Jolteon is a great choice because its regular ability is much better then its hidden ability and its a very fast Pokémon in which can outpace most even with Modest.

Espeon is do-able for being able to share random burns it might get from Scald, etc. because of Synchronize. Its Psyshock/Psychic will deal great pain to anyone who doesn't resist it.

[ChikoLad]

ChikoLad seeing as you have LEGO Dimensions, what level pack would you recommend someone start off with? I'm thinking on either the Simpsons or on Adventure Time. Thoughts?

I only have the Starter Pack, so other than the bonus Supergirl I got (who doesn't even unlock a new Adventure World because Batman already unlocks the DC Comics one), I just have the base game. So I don't have any hands on experience with any of the extra packs. I'll be getting the Sonic Level Pack when it comes out on Friday. That's mainly because I love Sonic but TT Games have also said themselves that they consider it to be their best Pack yet. It should also be noted that they've said a lot of the Year 2 content is twice as big as Year 1 content.

Other than that though, it's really down to what franchises you are most interested in. Between Simpsons and Adventure Time, I would probably recommend Adventure Time though. The Simpsons content in the game was kinda limited in the sense that they couldn't get any original music from the show, and they couldn't get the original voice actors to reprise their roles. They use archived voice clips from the show, which makes some lines of dialogue feel odd, specifically the cross-over interaction dialogue.

The Adventure Time content didn't have such limitations though, so you get the full experience. It's also a Year 2 Pack, so it should have more to it. The Adventure Time characters are also way more unique in the context of a LEGO game, compared to the Simpsons characters. The Simpsons characters are very basic and standard, so if you've played a LEGO game before, you have probably played characters like them before. The Adventure Time characters have very unique abilities though, such as Jake being able to transform into a bunch of different forms.

Also, it's worth noting that you DON'T need a Level Pack to unlock Adventure Worlds, Level Packs just give you a Story Mode level. So you could still unlock the Simpsons Adventure World by buying the Bart or Krusty Fun Packs, which are much cheaper than the Homer Level Pack, and then settle for the Finn Level Pack instead.

Additionally, all of the Year 1 franchises get a Story Mode level in the base game's story. The second level of Story Mode is actually in Springfield. Homer also makes multiple appearances in other levels throughout the story. So even if you don't buy any Simpsons packs, you will still get some Simpsons content in the base game anyway.

I'm not too good with competitive stuff but Volcarona shouldn't be holding a Choice Scarf if it's gonna run Quiver Dance
And I suggest just using Rain Damce instead of Water Sport on Wailord for obvious reasons and giving it Toxic as it's a good support move and Wailord has a terrible special coverage so it won't get anything outside of those two types it already covers

Volcarona can't run a Quiver Dance set with a Choice Scarf, or else it's locked into whatever move it uses first. Focus Sash is a much better item since Volcarona is so frail physically. Also, I'd highly recommend replacing Hurricane with Giga Drain. It helps a lot with coverage, since it hits both Rock and Water super effectivley.

I'd personally recommend Speed Boost Sharpedo over Rough Skin because if you can stall out Mega evolving, (giving it Protect can Give you a couple Speed Boosts) you can make a heavy hitter outspeed a lot of things...Sharpedo doesn't take hits very well so you can't really make use of Rough Skin as effectively, while Speed Boost can at least give you a big advantage if you're given the opportunity...
You can maybe go with Jolly instead of Adamant...though that usually depends on your personal preference, Speed or Power...Speed Boost may give you a speed buff in battle anyways so you can probably go without it if you just want to hit hard...

Also its probably not a good idea putting a Scarf on a Volcarona with set-up moves...

Can you get one with Speed Boost instead? If so, you can remove Earthquake and teach it Protect to SB the first turn, and be a faster Mega, which is its major issue. If not, give it Scarf instead.

This is my most favorite SweepSnake build. Give it a try instead. Giving it Adamant is the same issue with Azelf but more prominent, and Shed Skin is better then Intimidate for shedding Burns. Always perk your extra points into defense stats- not Hp.

Yeah, like, don't do that
HP is effectivelly both Def and Sp.Def, focusing in just one of them is a terrible idea
Besides, HP works differently from other stats so a Pokemon with 50 base HP will actually have 100HP at Lv.50 without taking any other factors into account, and that also affects IVs and EVs

Oricorio will learn Calm Mind

Hold the phone, are you 100% sure Oricorio can learn Calm Mind? Because if so, then its Sp.Atk might not go to waste after all
Still, Swords Dance and Dragon Dance are more common than Quiver Dance but Baile Oricorio can switch into a Volcarona and get free buffs while resisting its STABs and the usual Giga Drain

Dhelmise is a PHYSICAL attacker, so Giga Drain and Solar Beam are useless. Instead, I'd go with...

Full on bulky but slow physical sweeper. Rapid Spin removes hazards, Anchor Shot gets essentially a third STAB due to its ability and traps foes, and the other two are other STAB moves.

Putting special attacks on Dhelmise is a huge waste honestly.
