The hint says the character has magic yet his enemies do not
That's not what it says.
It just says it's fortunate for the wielder and not their opponents.
Incidentally other suggestions also have opponents that have used magic at some point. Fawful has fought Bowser. Suggested Zelda characters oppose Link and Zelda. Black Knight opposes many mages. F-Zero has Spade and Black Shadow opposes pretty much everyone.

With the hint fo magic, I'm not an F-Zero expert, but does Black Shadow use magic? If not, the only people left I can think of are Bison, Vaati, or Phantom Ganon.
Black Shadow got his powers from a Witch Doctor and he uses them here:

Back when HeartGold & SoulSilver was going to be released, I thought the Sevii Islands was going to come back (that, and Leaf was going to be added to the plot).

Ended up being disappointed...
But hey at least Kanto was revamped and had tons of stuff to do.

It says fortunate for them, not their enemies. It doesn't say "They have magic, their enemies do not". There's a difference. The enemies could still use magic, hence it could be any of the three I stated above.
That's not what it says.

So some interesting anime news today. First:


Ash's mother and Mr. Mom ( yes this is intentional) are traveling to Alola with him. So like the games, does Ash actually move there?

What if they are like "We are going to meet your father! Then it's professor's oak's cousin. That be funny but probably not happening.


And Ash's official art actually looks good. Hopefully in final versions of the anime, he looks this good.

And finally the next two episodes of XY have been announced:

The Pokémon Fan magazine in Japan has revealed another pair of new episode titles, this time for the fourty-fifth & fourty-sixth episodes of Pokémon XY & Z. These episodes is set to air on October 13th and October 20th respectively. The first episode features Serena finally battling Ash, and the second features Ash encountering Team Flare Admin Xerosic.
Episode 941: One Last Battle with Ash! Serena's Choice!!
Episode 942: Farewell, Ash-Greninja! Xerosic Strikes Back!!

In the first, Serena has a final battle against Ash before making her decision about her future.

Second:

"Xerosic who escaped during the events of team flare, makes his move in an effort to strike back and fulfill lysandre's goal. Upon hearing this, Ash and Greninja rush into action to stop him!"

So they're probably pulling some bs where Xerosic does something to prevent Ash Greninja from happening again. Thus allowing Greninja to be left at Oak's without it feeling like their bond was nothing.

Which is sort of stupid, but I guess it will work. Could see an Arc in Sun and Moon where the power they have is regained possibly. Maybe to fight ultra beasts.

Got it. Thanks for the clarification.

I don't judge someone for wanting to cosplay at random. Sounds fun, although I'd go for something more kosher.

I do, however, wonder how someone falls for a Nigerian scam in 2016 when even someone as hilariously sheltered as myself knows putting money transfers and that country in the same sentence is a trap.

She went to another cashier and changed her story to "Her uncles using the money to rebuild an orphanage..."

Why do people being scammed enjoy lying about what they're sending the money for?

"Nintendo has come to terms with the release of @Sephazon.

We like to wish @Sephazon the best in his future endeavors."

In all seriousness Nikki is just another Emily Rogers to me, just another toxin in the community.
He walks into work one day:

Reggie walks by,

"Oh yeah Sephazon your fired"

He can go live with Bill on a foreign island lol.

This reminds me of a story I heard at work. One of the higher ups was at a family gathering and every year, his stepdad would boast about knowing everything better than him. His stepdad fell for one of those. The next family gathering, his stepdad started boasting. "Yeah, you know everything better than me. Especially about Nigerian princes" he then got a kick to the shins from his wife

I've never heard of people giving lies about giving into scams.

But one, why would you keep going with it after it was pointed out to be a scam?

And two, even considering I've never heard of this before, that almost sounds "I have to go iron my dog" level of bad excuse making.

Who even thinks about orphanages anymore? I don't know much about orphanages, but I don't really hear about them in terms of modern day stuff so I'm guessing a large chunk of them were replaced by the Foster Care System. And even if there is an orphanage, I doubt it's going to be just one person in charge of rebuilding it, especially not an uncle, which is pretty much the go-to excuse family member.

My brain's dumb today and I'm still seeing holes everywhere in their logic.

Seeing as it's still JK Simmons edition here's a pic of him in Justice League:

Vaati and Phantom Ganon have been my top two LoZ cotnenders, but Pig ganon is easily possible. I guess I was just thinking of fully Pig Ganon and his final smash. But I would definitely like to see it be an LoZ baddie.

Finally caught up again with Jojo, and a few things I want to say
Kira's dad is honestly just padding. Granted, we get great fights later because of him, especially Highway Star, but still
I can't believe Toth came true after all these years
Kosaku's wife looks better than I remember, and from what little we saw of Hayato, I'm a little disappointed. Then again, one line in which he's supposed to be mumbling

Being honest, I wouldn't be surprised if every Pokemon except Pikachu (and maybe Charizard) felt like their bond with Ash was nothing.

Especially Pidgeot and Primeape.
True but half of what allowed it to happen was that Froakie was different with other froakies. It's works, but at the same time, why add it then Especially since it would seem this deconfirms it for the games.

but only time will tell.

I don't believe the NX reveal next week rumour.
I don't think it will be in Sept, but could be wrong.


Never give it up un-til the final day,
Just because it's not to-morrow doesn't mean it's not today,

Pay no mind to logic, it'll only bog you down,
You'll have no time to smile if all you do is frown!


. . .OK, but on a more serious note, I can see it happening either way. Apparently the Nintendo rep thing wasn't just me imagining things, so we have a window of "soon," but considering the time frame we're in that could be this month or next.

I'll admit, there was a part of me that hoped Ash would take Greninja to Alola with him. Ah well.

Still banking on Ash getting a Rockruff in Alola.
When the NX gets revealed, it'll be revealed, for me.
[Bane] For you. [/Bane]

Honestly, who doesn't love the Highway Star fight? Imo, it's the DIU equivalent of the geb fight. A Stand with a range so big, you can only find where the user is with intense thinking, and even then is still incredibly dangerous. Plus, it's the need for speed fight.

Gonna have to beat you up for talking smack about ma waifu boi.
If NX gets released March 4th, it'll probably get revealed March 3rd. :p
No. The NX never gets revealed beforehand.

You buy the NX and in the box comes a DVD with an exclusive Nintendo Direct that tells you everything about the console after you bought it.

Speaking of reworking old Pokemon stuff, I wonder how Red/Blue/Green would work if they were remade with ORAS's change it all approach as opposed to FRLG's the exact same, remade in RSE engine methodology.

For one thing they'd probably force you to go through the Seafoam Islands and Gym Leader order would be strictly enforced.
....im trying to rmember any drastic main game changes from RSE to ORAS and all im getting is they updated mauvile + primal reversion was added....and as for post game....they added one because contrary to most beliefs ruby and saphire didnt really have much to do post game
(because as is widely known ORAS is pretty much a 1-1 remake of ruby and saphire)

The worst part is Nikki and Emily can still both be wrong all the time and people still flock to them for "leaks" and "rumors". Sort of a shame people are that stupid.

I'm glad I have patience and not totally not desperate for something.
I think at this point I'm in this weird limbo where I've ended up being patient and desperate at the same time.

So I end up listening to every last NX leak that rolls up with way more of an open mind and way more excitement than I should, but I don't hold any ill will or Nintendoomed attitude against Nintendo for not telling me anything yet and I'm not going to get super cut up if anything's fake.
