I like how Burgh's like...

"Hmmm...I'm a Gym Leader with probably years of experience behind me and some very well trained Pokemon, and you're only a kid who's just started your Pokemon journey...Right! I'll take this path and block the exit you go through the dangerous woods where Team Plasma is likely hiding as well as a bunch of poisonous Bug types, yeah that's a good idea"
I think he even claims that he fought several Plasma members, but if you go check his route first, there isn't any.

When life gives you lemons....

USE THEM AS A DEADLY WEAPON TO DROWN YOUR ENEMIES IN THE SOUREST PAIN POSSIBLE OF A CITRIC ACID RAIN.
Then have them eat a little potassium

It'll literally make them explode

I remember when out teacher had actually demonstrated a reaction of Sodium and Hydrochloric Acid. That was a spectacle to watch.

I dunno about exploding, but it WILL catch fire, and burn vigorously.

There was a news story some time back about a kid that was dipping his gum in citric acid during science class and he accidentally dipped it in potassium instead and the reaction when it entered his mouth actually killed him

It doesn't say anything about potassium tho, but still it was a Darwin Award winning moment because he actually blew his jaw off.

That's it, the story I read though said it was potassium

Who knows, maybe it was actually something else

One of the things I love most about Metal Gear Solid V is the stupid **** people come up with to do with it.

You'd think I was playing as Link or something...'You do all the work while I hang back and do nothing! Cuz you're the chosen one!'

Also I really need to add a new member to my team...Mitsu getting a bit ahead on the levels...If this were White version I'd grab a Petilil...Maybe a Sewaddle? Haven't used Leavanny before...not a fan of the two 4x weaknesses though...I still need to figure out a Flying type for my team as well...
There's never not a reason to post a Hard Mode chapter

Actually, I disagree. I won't deny that going in blind is by far the optimal way to play. That being said, I went into the game almost completely spoiled for everything and still found it immensely enjoyable, and I'd probably rank it among my all-time favorite games.

So while I'd definitely recommend going in blind, I think the game is solid enough on its own merits that it can still be enjoyed regardless.
Glad to hear that. Some of my favorite parts were the surprises, but I'm glad the gameplay alone can stand.

And also, wild False appears!
There is a controversy because the portrayal of the Spirit guy

In the myth, he's supposed to be thin but they portrayed him large and fat, like "A generic islander guy"
They specifically said "this guy is thin btw" in a legend?

Personally I'm indifferent to Corrin. If we had to get another FE rep, I'd rather take him than another Marth Clone. I also feel that no matter who would be the next DLC character(s) they would've gotten the same reaction.

This is double for Bayonetta. It could've been anyone else and they would have still gotten the same amount of hate. It was a high standard everyone put on a pedestal which penetrated the skies. The downfall was inevitable.
Late to replying cuz College and shiz but I heavily disagree with this notion. This is almost the same logic the "can't please everyone" crowd was using as a way to defend their characters. There's tons of characters I don't necessarily support (i.e. Ryu & Cloud before the Ballot) but would be happy to see make the cut for DLC. Not that there isn't people who will never pleased with what happens because they do exist but making a blanket statement like that is just a very passive aggressive way for the pro-Corrin crowd to quell any sort of argument against their character.

Feel the same way about Bayonetta but at least in her case she won a fan poll to get in the game so I can't dispute that too much granted the Ballot results were legit.

What I would much rather had was for the reveals to be switched up. It should have been Corrin revealed in the November Direct, Bayonetta revealed at the start of the December Direct, and Cloud being revealed at the end of the December Direct. At least DLC would have ended on a positive note that way.

New levels of irritation with Ace Attorney.

Uhm... very vague spoilers for a specific bit of Case 3 for Spirit of Justice so I'll put it in tags.

"Hmm.... Isn't that lantern in the wrong corner from where it should be? Yeah, it's the broken one!"
>Points to the missing space where the rest of the lantern should be.
"I don't see what you are trying to say. PENALTY!"
.....
>Points at the lantern dead center.
"....OH!"

Smashified hint for Codename: Shiny...

Known for his powerful projectile attacks...

At the very least they narrowed it down to a male character...

I believe this is the only hint for Shiny so far...

No idea who Shiny is lol.
Odyssey having a Cape? Confirmed Villain? hmmm.

Probably Hades.....as much as I want Medusa......or I'm not even close.
EDIT: Remembered Hades isn't recurring. :D
EDIT 2: I don't think Medusa's clothes count as a cape tho so it's probably not even Kid Icarus. D:
Apparently something Bayonetta 2 related is happening on Twitch's TGS stream in a few minutes.

I have no idea what it could be, probably something with amiibo?
So did it happen yet?

Well I guess Toon Zelda/Tetra is out of the picture now lol. Have no idea who this character is.

Even more confusing is Odyssey who I previously thought to be Waluigi. Now that the character is stated to wear a cape i'm starting to think it's M. Bison now.

Bison isn't really a projectile fighter though.

I was browsing on the pokeani Tumblr feed and I found this interesting post that theorizes what the entire purpose of Ash going to school in the upcoming Sun and Moon anime could be based on what happens in Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia.

Basically, Shadows of Almia starts out with the player character attending a Pokemon Ranger school, where they learn what it takes to become a Pokemon Ranger. This comprises the first arc of the game. Once the player graduates, they travel throughout the Almia region from there, undertaking various tasks as a new Pokemon Ranger such as helping Pokemon or taking down the evil team.

Perhaps the school that Ash attends will be a similar idea. He will learn about more battle tactics, the new Pokemon, and perhaps the other things one can do in the region. Once he graduates school, he'll be traveling the Alola region, where he will take on the Island Challenges from there. Another post on the same feed even theorized that the four-revealed Trial Captains are attending school because they are studying to become said roles. Maybe this school isn't just only for those that want to become trainers in Alola, but also those that want to become Trial Captains. If it's mostly the latter, maybe Ash attends school so that he can learn about Trial Captains, thus allowing him to prepare himself for what's to come.

Thoughts?

Just finished Pride and Prejudice. Hot dang, that's a good book.
Many valuable lessons. Got my heart pounding.
Would recommend to any romantic who can withstand a thousand lines of dialogue.

Wait, guys, we're looking at this all wrong.
Think Mother. When it doubt, it's always a Mother character.

So with that logic... Starman.

Smashified is to Mother/Earthbound what Sakurai is to Fire Emblem. :estatic:

Shiny is Zero.
Anyone who played MvC knows how much he's a projectile spammer.
Is male.
Has a shiny metal posterier.
10/10 Can't deny.
We're on the same wavelength, man.
Neither of them account much for "odyssey" though. Hm.

They should smashify Mango Sentinel with a curly mustache. pls
