Zachmac​

This AMA's subject is the Pokemon Trainer main who kicked my *** to the moon and back: Zachmac.

As always, all site rules are in effect. Please try and limit yourself to one post containing up to three questions until Zachmac has answered, then you may ask more. And when asking questions, please keep it civil. Have fun! If you're curious about if you're on the list of future AMAs or wish to be added, refer to this post over in the Social thread.

Whenever you're ready, ZephyrZ

2. Do you, in fact, used a Mac, and if so, why do you limit yourself?
3. Waffles or pancakes?

1. It's depends on my mood but I like Y's design slightly better.
2. Nah I usually use a Acer.
3. French Toast

1. Thoughts on Greninja?
2. Are there any Pokémon you legitimately hate?
3. What is your favorite videogame track or OST?

1. I actually really liked Frogadier but was a little disappointed by its evolution. Pretending to hate Greninja is just a gag.
2. Jynx has always creeped me out, and not in a good way.
3. I'd have to give that to Kid Icarus: Uprising for both its quality and variety.

What's your favorite song?

What drew you to charizard smash wise or pokemon wise?

Biscuits or scones?

1. I honestly don't know. I can be indecisive.
2. There's a lot of reasons. My first Pokemon game was Fire Red, I used to watch the original Pokemon anime on Boomerang, and smash-wise, a speedy heavyweight just meshed with my playstyle so well.
3. Biscuits with gravy are Arceus's gift to man.

1. Your favorite unpopular Pokémon?
2. Do you enjoy occasional casual Smash?
3. Horseflies or flying horses?

1. There's quite a few. I never see anyone talk about Passimian, Druddigon or Sigilyth though.
2. I love it! Pac-land is actually one of my favorite stages - it's so bad its good.
3. Flying horses is the objectively correct answer here.

Whats a videogame/franchise that you never tried but wanna try?
Favorite gen of Pokemon?
Whats a feature you would like to see in future Smash bros or Pokemon games?

1. I'm going to get around to playing Dark Souls one of these days.
2. It depends on my mood. I'd have to say 1, 3, 5 or 7....so odd numbered gens I guess.
3. I always wanted to see Pokemon's secret bases expended upon.

Favorite Pokémon spin-off?
Favorite game besides Pokémon or Smash Bros?
Most wanted character for Smash DLC?

1. I used to be a big fan of the Pokemon Ranger series.
2. I go through phases of being a big FE junkie sometimes.
3. I hope we get another clever or creative character that I didn't even know I wanted, like Bowser Jr. or Piranha Plant.

1. What is your Final Fantasy of choice?
2. What’s the difference between a Zachmac and an Apple Mac?
3. What’s the worst thing you’ve ever had to do in a game?

1. I've never played a proper FF game so uh...Bravely Default.
2. Apples are better for your health.
3. Shiny hunting is a miserable, frustrating experience. I have no idea why I do it to myself.

1. When can I have my Pokémon Trainer main pass back?
2. To Flare Blitz or not to Flare Blitz?
3. What pokemon is missing from smash in your opinion?

1. When I say so.
2.

3. I think the Pokemon roster in smash is fairly solid as is, but if I had to add one it's probably be Sceptile.

Howdy!

1. The dwarves have made you their king! What do you do about it?
2. You are tasked with creating an animated series. What’s the plot?
3. Should I go with the hop, or should I choose the sob?

1. I use my newfound dwarven kingdom to unbury riches from beneath the earth. Then I would use said riches to finance an invasion on all of mankind and take over the world.
2. I'd probably make some sort of fantasy-adventure with a focus on mythical creatures.
3. That's for you to decide. Don't stress over it too much and just go with what your gut says.

Nice see other people of culture appreciating Sigilyph.

Sigilyph was a main stay of my team back in White. Wasn't aware that he was disliked, but then again, it seems that I should just assume that every Pokemon I like from Gen 5 was disliked at some point.

As for my questions:

1. Were you disappointed when Charizard went back to being a part of Pokemon Trainer in Ultimate?
2. In your opinion, which Pokemon game is the most underrated?
3. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Its not really disliked so much as its just kind of forgotten. There's so many pokemon introduced in Gen 5 that a lot of them just never get talked about.

1. Were you disappointed when Charizard went back to being a part of Pokemon Trainer in Ultimate?
2. In your opinion, which Pokemon game is the most underrated?
3. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

1. On the contrary, I was incredibly excited. It's what ultimate got me to waste money on premium.

I love the entire Kanto trio and would still probably play all three of them to some degree even if they were separate. Squirtle has a bit of a learning curve since I'm not used to characters with such little range but when he finally clicked with me it felt so rewarding.

2. Black and White were really underrated at the time but people seem to have warmed up to them. I think people are a little too hard on Sun/Moon sometimes, but I can kind of see why they're so annoyed by all the unskippable cut scenes since it makes them annoying to replay.

3. I've always wanted to visit the Amazon Rainforest. Cities are cool but they'll never strike the same level of awe in me as the great outdoors. I plan on saving up to do it one day when I'm in a more financially sound position.
