anyone had weird nicknames for pokemon? I had a Aurorus named Milk so when it got rekt I would tell " Awww, Milk...."
I usually name pokemon as if I were the character I was playing with... so I ended up naming them really dumb things that a 10 year old girl would possibly name them..

I named my Avalugg "Mr Burglesby". lol

I'm really glad you also Nuzlocke and know the feeling when you die even though you do everything right.

There's a Zubat in Platinum that randomly knows Mega Drain.

Mofo.

I didn't know Smash 4 was backed by SO much money, supporters, and stadiums full of people who go to see it!

Also, you apparently didn't see Mayweather if you think boxing is still a legit sport.
If you want a fighting game example, look at Justin Wong. From 2001 to 2004, he won each tournament at Evolution, only losing in 2005 and taking 4th place. His straight win record didn't kill MvC2 throughout those four years, it continued on and eventually someone beat him. That can happen with Smash 4, just because someone keeps winning doesn't mean it's going to die, it just means that the people placing below him have to overcome him, and when it happens it'll be one of the biggest upsets for the game.

I tried using Pikachu in one game.

Only game I suceeded was Yellow

I usually replace Pikachu with a better electric type later

Mareep and his evolutions being my preference
Sorry if I'm late to this, but just sayin....light ball beauty cosplay pikachu is one of my new team staples. Glass cannon for sure but with icicle crash to cover ground types.

Why are so many good movies mad without the budget to make them?

The creator of "Terminator" had to pay for scenes himself, not to mention shoot scenes without authorization to do so, in order to get the movie done

Rocky had to get the help of "Troma" to shoot scenes without union authorization to get it done

someones feeling a bit :shaker:.
Just a bit LOL. More tired of it than anything else.

His straight win record didn't kill MvC2 throughout those four years, it continued on and eventually someone beat him.

You've got me there, but the only thing that might hurt Smash 4 compared to MvC or SF is that people will make the arguments that JWong is playing a game that requires more skill. Now does that mean I don't think Zero isn't skilled at SSB4? Not at all. His tournament record proves that. But I'm just pointing out that people are going to nitpick every little thing about this game because its not Melee, and because Zero is literally taking it by a HUGE margin. JWong didn't have to worry about that because he was playing a highly technical game that requires a lot of practice and precision. People can say the same thing for Mang0 and Armada for Melee.

My point is, even though I don't watch Melee as much as Smash 4, I understand where a lot of the hype still comes from because you have several people who can potentially win it.

Also I still firmly believe JWong will win every game at EVO this year. Melee, Smash 4, MvC3, Guilty Gear, MKX, EVERYTHING.

I'm probably late to the party on this but why do we even bother having major Smash 4 tournaments if Zero is just going to win them all. At least there's still some excitement in the Melee scene because you have at least 5 different people who are posed to win. Smash 4 is just...Zero. Nairo comes close but nowhere near close enough.

Ugh. That's seriously why I don't even bother anymore at this point, and this is coming from a huge Smash 4 fan. People really need to step up their game for EVO because I have a feeling if Zero wins it, people are just going to stop watching and supporting it at that point.

/rant
I feel the same way. It's always ZeRo who wins every single major Smash Bros. 3DS / Wii U tournament. But whatever, that will change one day. lol

This happens to me all the time in Nuzlockes. I'm not that skilled at nuzlockes, but still, when a Ninetales lands a crit Energy Ball on your Swampert on the first turn, I know how devestating it can be. :urg:

If Pikachu gets a Mega Evolution, I can't help but think that it would look ugly af. While they're at it, they could fix Volt Tackle's animation to follow the anime and not some weird ball of electricity.
Raichu is a better fit.

I said nothing, I like the amount of quotes I have today :)

Basically, when you do a tornado jump, there's a stylish that you do by pressing A when you touch the ground. This will cause Paper Mario to keep yelling joyfully at a very mnimal delay (by this I mean you hear the voice overlapping) all while rolling backwards, you press A when you are back to complete the Stylish.

it's the best stylish ever and I discovered it some months ago....it mind blew me :)
