Social NintenZone Social 6.0 - L'Arachel Edition, Apparently?

[Natz~]

Definitely planning on having Feraligatr, Tyranitar and Crobat in my team by the end. No idea on others.

oh having konnies favorite pokemon

cool remember when nuzlockes were common back in fourm games everyones own zubat they caught they named it after him lol

no idea why i'm mentioning it, just came up to mind and reminded me of those times

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I remember in Heart Gold and Soul Silver I could NOT get my Golbat to evolve into Crobat. I was almost through Kanto before it evolved

How friggin' bad did that I treat that Golbat?

 

[praline]

Also....@praline or Aurane

One of y'all better have a Sneasel on your team by the end of the game

(I'm assuming you guys are both playing Crystal that is)

I won’t cause it sucks until Weavile became a thing.

I unironically love theZubat line. Back when the first gen was new I beat the game with a Golbat.

Same thing happened to me with a Golbat in Emerald.

Friendship evolving was the worst before Gen VI/VII cheese.

 

[praline]

Err.. what?

Oh, I should mention. In the cave BEFORE violet city you can get a Teddiursa

It’s 5% during morning and is only level 2. It’s not worth it.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Err.. what?


It’s 5% during morning and is only level 2. It’s not worth it.

I got a shiny pokemon in that cave before catching a Teddiursa, and even then I gave up and looked for an ursaring instead.

It's just an option I would have gone for if I knew about it.

Now, I'd probably just breed a teddiursa and transfer it over. I might do that since I have to reset one of my games to get a meganium.

Edit: Ooh, a new game means I have an excuse to use a Mantine

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Someone catch my up on anything that isn't Mania Plus leaking or Dark Souls Switch getting delayed

 

[Natz~]

Err.. what?

....that you both unironically love the zubat line and beat the first gen game with a golbat :V was that not clear?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

In my red version, I am wanting to use a tentacruel because I've never used one before. That's going to be interesting.

 

[Chrono.]

TIL Croagunk start with a 100 Happiness value instead of the usual 70.

That's kinda weird.

It doesn't evolve by Friendship, nor does it have any sort of move or mechanic that emphasizes Friendship (not counting Return/Frustration which I think everyone can learn). The closest thing I can find is that a Pokedex entry says it's a popular mascot. So I guess that's what it's pointing out.

Although many mons do have a different value from 70, it's usually for legendaries/mythicals/other special weird mons.

Wave Race revival got teased.

That's about it. It was a slow news day.

I've been busy watching Channel Awesome implode. I dunno why it's so entertaining to me

There is a rumor that Doug left the site because his Facebook page now says he "had worked at Channel Awesome" instead of "Working at Channel Awesome"

But Ness "Had been in Smash"...

Brad Jones still hasn't left the site but all his social media has been distanced from it. I wonder if he CAN'T for some reason.

And Guru Larry is staying for the lols

Edit: And people slowly came to accept that JewWario was really NOT a nice guy after everyone praised him 3 years ago

And...
Not sure if mentioning Aegaeon is a spoiler or not but.. just in case

Spoiler: chapter 6..

Aegaeon is a pedophile confirmed lol.

I also saw a bit of comments on reddit... and other places about Blades...
Many implied that it is odd for humanoid Blades like Brighid, Pyra, Mythra, Newt, Kora, Praxis, probably Theory, Perun, probably Floren, Electra, probably Godfrey, Zenobia, probably Gorg, probably Sheba... to have... bellybuttons... it does sound ridiculous at first but I did sort of think this is a bit of a headscratcher if I do sayso myself... since you know that Blades are from core crystals...

So.

Haven't done a fort update since I got it established.

Short version:

We're ****ed.

Long version:

Spoiler: NZ Fortress

Tagging the caravan. @Professor Pumpkaboo, @Blargg888, Natz~ , @The Stoopid Unikorn, @Coricus, @Yellowlord.

We got some nice apartments built. Had a few solid farms going. Got some seventy-odd migrants. Even had a pretty thriving industry of stone crafts going.

Unfortunately we had some pretty gnarly food shortages because I wasn't quite as attentive to the Still and Kitchen as I should've been. By the time I'd figured out what had happened - we ran out of stuff to booze up just once and the whole brewing industry shut down - we had casualties from dehydration. One was Katt. Sorry Katt. Feel especially guilty for that one.

Everybody else is alive but I admittedly shuffled people around so much it was hard to specialize people into anything awesome. But we did some things.

Uni and Yellowlord dug out almost all of the fort between them; the initial floor was sand, so they rapidly tore through it and were Legendary level miners by the time we actually struck stone.

Pumpkaboo and Katt gathered plants - absurdly important for the food stores, since our farmers were still working out which end of the seed went into the ground. Probably saved us from starvation/dehydration about a dozen times apiece. Although it also probably caused Katt's when the plants around the fort ran thin.

Blargg whipped up our first masterpiece craft - a mica figurine of Who-The-****-Knows. Unfortunately it was a possessed mood, so he - well she, here - didn't get anything out of it. We had a few more good moods and got a few more good things, but they were made by some Urist McRandoms.

Cori started out the woodcutter. But after year one she'd cut so much that stray logs were everywhere. The fort could have had wall-to-wall hardwood floors. I set her onto stone-smoothing and engraving detail after that. The idea of woomies drawn all over the fort was just too good for me to pass up.

Myself, well, we had a lot of wood, so I built wooden **** out of it. Tables, chairs, beds, doors, you name it. Just built wood **** all day. Doubled as an Architect until we got a proper one.

I did get to be mayor for a bit - one got elected, but he was kind of a douchenozzle and mandated goods I didn't have facilities to deliver, so he got forcibly replaced. Tried to abdicate the chair afterwards and go back to woodworking, but Mayor Douchenozzle got re-elected, so the second time I forcibly ousted him I kept the job.

Traded with the dwarves twice, made off good the second time. Traded with the elves once. Nothing good. **** em.

And then there was a Werebison.

How in the multi-splendored unholy tiddybiscuit **** do you even get a werebison? What ****ing bison goes around biting ****?

I expected our first conflict to be kobolds, maybe goblins. I set up an entire corridor of cage traps along the only entry/egress into the fort (small-scale, but works for the gobbos).

And how far did that get me with a half-man, half bull****?

The werebison sidestepped the whole thing like James goddamned Bond. I caged five of my own ****ing dorfs. Three casualties and everyone in a cage is slowly bleeding out.

Eight stone coffins, that's how far it got me.

And after all that we didn't even kill the asshole. He just ran out of Werebison Juice and poofed back to whatever humanoid he was previously before running like a terrified *****.

Which means he'll be back.

But worst of all I have no idea if he has infected anyone. Or if he has, how many. Next full moon, the whole fort could be most unrighteously ****ed from the inside.

So this fort's headed for a fun spiral. Good times, great to be back.

I'll ride this train to the bloody end of the line and make the next one something worth talking about.

Take some pictures in a minute.

ooooooooh dude if you think a werebison is ****ed ****, let me tell you the fun story of how a werezebra came into my fortress as early as the second summer and ate my master mechanic to shreds and murdered him

lucky enough he only attacked that one dorf cause after wards he got stuck in one of our hunting cages, so we just waited it out and he turned into a normal human, i wanted revenge for the dorf so i quickly dug a pit grabbed like 10 dorfs into militia with no weapons and dumped the human werezebra ******* into the pit and literally had the 10 dorfs grapple him to death, it took like 7 days straight of unrated dorf action while the human suffered nonstop from the constant grapples as they broke every bone in his body and teared him apart, it got so bad i couldn't even turn them away even firing them form the milita they still just wailed on the broken and can no longer move werezebra human, eventually died, got my sanctification well from it

Unfortunately we had some pretty gnarly food shortages because I wasn't quite as attentive to the Still and Kitchen as I should've been. By the time I'd figured out what had happened - we ran out of stuff to booze up just once and the whole brewing industry shut down - we had casualties from dehydration. One was Katt. Sorry Katt. Feel especially guilty for that one.

GOD DAMIT XD out of all things i die from dehydration was it? XD the simplest things really will kill you lol

anyway plot points aside, ya had a great start going, just rng ****ed ya over with a ****ing werebison still cracking up coming in and wrecking **** way to early in the game, oh well plenty of fun from the massive terrible spiral thats about to happen next full moon dude, share the story with us when it happens gotta love to see it happen~

No.

I'm also pretty sure you heard this song for the first time during chapter 3:

Chapter 5 was where I really start trying to grind for rare Blades.

Got all RNG rare Blades before finishing chapter 6.

Started watching one of the new anime of the season called Megalo Box.

Quick Summary: It takes place in a distant future where Boxing has evolved into the sport Megalo Boxing and is played with mechanical contraptions called Gear (it's basically armor kinda). Junk Dog (or Joe as he later calls himself), an outlaw who is used to fighting in Underground Boxing to live, decides to enter himself in the Megalo Box tournament after an encounter he had with the current champion. But it's more to test himself on how he'd do in a real fight (to elaborate Underground Boxing matches are all fixed, and Joe was booked to lose all of them. So basically it was like wrestling and he was a jobber supreme.)

The show is actually a retelling of A****a no Joe (which I've never read or watched myself), but it's a retelling in the same way Jojo Steel Ball Run is a retelling of Phantom Blood. Which means it'll have very similar themes and characters but presented in a far different way.

On that note, the art and animation are ****ing beautiful.

Out of all the random new anime I decided to watch, this is definitely one I'm gonna keep watching.

Spoiler: NZ Fortress 3

Tagging the caravan. @Professor Pumpkaboo, @Blargg888, Natz~ , @The Stoopid Unikorn, @Coricus, @Yellowlord.

My biggest fear regarding the werebison is that we would've had dorfs walking around infected, but unverified.

Remember how I mentioned our dorfs getting caught up in our own traps? Weeeeeeell.

And guess where they are.

Now there is one dorf currently unaccounted for:

- and I'm hoping they're just dead of thirst or starvation or somesuch.

But as long as they aren't an escaped infected (knock on stone) that should be the last of the werebeast business for the moment.

We mostly ain't dead, hooraaaaay.

[EDIT]: Spoke too soon!

Spoiler: NZ Fortress 4

I thought all the little blue exclamation marks were sad dorfs, cause they'd just seen a werebison tear through a couple mother****ers.

Nnnnnnope. Someone turned off the still again.

So at minimum there goes me and Blarrg.

Oop.

Let's see how fast we can brew.
