They can just do it two cours at a time, there's no need for it to be weekly. I doubt they would anyway since SBR is a massive undertaking.

i heard not that many people liked part 7 in its home country

could be wrong though

It's not one of their favorite parts but I never got the impression that it's especially disliked. It must have been popular enough to run for 8 years.

Week 2: The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) and Fast & Furious (2009)
Week 3: Fast Five (2011) and Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
Week 4: Furious 7 (2015) and The Fate of the Furious (2017)

Just as I planned.

Are you a real JoJo fan if you don't type out Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap every time?

If Araki doesn’t say D4C fully all the time, I don’t have to either.

On a movie related note...

ONE MORE MONTH UNTIL HOBBS & SHAW BABY!!!!! **** YEAH!!!!

I'm'a gonna begin my Fast and Furious marathon tomorrow to get ready for the film.

Yeah but what about its lesser-known sequel?

Some folks are saying the gen 7 anime seems to be building up to Ash winning the alola league.


Have we learned nothing?

True but if he loses It be kinda of dumb. No one has a full team except for maybe kukui. Who I think would be the only to beat ash, except for maybe gladion. The league could be fun but I wish everyone had full teams

i dont think 10% of them are even fully evolved either

I’ve replayed every Pokémon generation this year.

Three times.

I need new Pokémon to survive.

If you’re still needing to scratch that Pokémon itch, but want something new, I have something that might be of interest to you (and probably others).

A list of 8 completed Pokémon ROM Hacks and Fan Games that I highly recommend:

(Note: all of these link to pages with information about all of these games, I’m NOT linking the downloads themselves or anything like that and putting myself at risk.)

1. Blazed Glazed (ROM Hack) (Enhanced version of the original Glazed.)
2. Gaia (ROM Hack)
3. Prism (ROM Hack)
4. Crystal Clear (ROM Hack) (All info and download stuff is found on the Discord that this page links to.)
5. Insurgence (Fan Game)
6. Solar Light and Lunar Dark (Fan Game) (Look under info for the picture to find the download and a link to the game’s Discord for more info.)
7. Uranium (Fan Game)
8. Vega Minus (ROM Hack) (The recommended version of Vega. The original can be VERY difficult.)

Remember in Sinnoh when Ash had a pretty competent team and was winning, so they had to pull a guy with a Latios and a Darkrai outta their ass just so Ash could lose?

Don’t be surprised if some rando with an Ultra Necrozma shows up.

 

[Z25]

Let me think.

Actually ash and Lana are the only ones without a fully evolved team has has Rowlet and pikachu with toracat likely evolving in the league.

Mallow only has tsareena

Sophocles has togedamaru and vikavolt.

Lana has primarina and eevee

Kiawe has charziard, tortanator and marowack. Then gladion and kukui have all evolved monsas well. I think Guzma just has golisopod but I did t see he episode he showed up in so idk

 

[EricTheGamerman]

I found them always playable. I had a ton of fun playing them over and over again. I didn't find FRLG's changes honestly super good either. I found the Sevii Islands kind of eh, and I liked the glitches/bugs. Mind you, the Monster Brain thing helped(but that I got wayyyyy after I played each game multiple times. In fact, what helped a lot was Pokemon Stadium, which let me do a lot more with each Pokemon, including storing them), but it also worked well enough while I could have a lot of fun at that point. I beat Red/Blue/Yellow back then and replayed them more than once without the MB. Truthfully, FR/LG just didn't feel like "Holy cow, this is a massive improvement' to me. I mean, it technically is in its own right. But a lot of games when replying I like to use fun codes to do silly things, and I have more options with RBY with no major glitch issues. Besides, I often enjoying having a Missingno. on my team overall. Not for the sake of item glitching, but because I find it a fun glitch character to use.

Remakes will always be different and won't do exactly the same thing you "want". I didn't really go through ORAS very much as it didn't feel like the old ones. Maybe it's just the weaker version of Pickup. Maybe it's that it didn't hold my interest as easily as the originals did, which I had a ton of fun with(especially RS alone. Emerald I didn't go fully through). Sometimes nostalgia is enough. Sometimes those slice of life changes don't do it for all players. I vastly prefer the original version of Rage too, not the one from Gen II on. So that's yet another factor.

Fair enough, nostalgia is a hell of a drug... I just can't go back and play them anymore without being so damn bored and frustrated. The lack of running shoes alone makes them feel like an absolute waste of my time. They don't feature two of my favorite types (Dark and Ice), Ghost is woefully underdeveloped as a concept, Physic is overpowered to the point of pure hilarity and also not particularly well developed, no double typing makes Pokemon feel too simple, too many of the great Gen 1 Pokemon are locked behind forced trade (an issue a lot of games have for fairly obvious reasons, but still, I notice it most in gen 1), Pokemon management between boxes is basically like the ****tiest version of video game paper work ever, and the lack of a split between physical and special also makes the games feel too simple.

After everything even just Gen II did, it feels mechanically barren and frustratingly slow to play the original versions. People are fair to hold their opinions on the game, but I have always had trouble understanding why Red and Blue in particular have been held to such acclaim despite their increasing issues as we move further and further away from them. I played Blue and Red to death as a kid as well, but when I try to play them now... it just doesn't go well. There's a little charm and nostalgia left for the original Gameboy games I'll admit, but not enough.

Oh, I'd love a few tiny updates, though I never really cared about the running shoes myself. Namely, fix how Ghost types work. ...Actually, I don't feel a lot needs to be done. Make Struggle affect Ghost types too. Dark being added is nice, though, yeah.

I remember having a really well done Dex in Crystal, but then the data erased itself. D:

The sad thing about losing Premium Noipoi is that no one can read your glorious fanfic I had in my signature

I must share this:

I remember when Herobrine and his monsters took down the Wii Shop channel.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Okay ****ers, it's time to replay Gen I the way nature inteded.

So which starter should I choose?

you already sent this yesterday

 

[Shyy_Guy595]

So apparently Dr. Mario World's competitive multiplayer has you fighting to poison each other and make each other sickly.

Also, Doctor Ludwig, Dr. Toadette, and Doctor Wendy were shown.

The voices for the Viruses are still S++++ as well

 

[PLATINUM7]

They must share it again

I did?

I can't seem to find the post; it's not in my content.

It's possible I did, though, and it got removed somehow; I tend to be very forgetful at times.

I can vouch for Insurgence, pretty dang good all around.

I'd add Pokemon Reborn to that list. It's a fangame that isn't 100% done yet but is still absolutely packed with content. Postgame is what they're going to be doing soon.

Large variety of pokemon to catch, an actual interesting plot, creative boss fights with special pokemon (there's some fights that took me FOREVER to finish) and all those qol updates from later pokemon games included.

There's even some RPG mechanics you wouldn't expect in your traditional Pokemon game, like branching story paths and a character relationship system.

Dr. Toadette

so you are saying i have a reason to download the game

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

I love Tim Horton's coffee. Probably gonna have a cup tomorrow because I'll need it for yet another job interview later that day.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

The Pokemon anime has it's moments even now, but I kinda stopped following it due ti it's insistence on maintaining some certain status quos.

Specifically, Ash being an eternal 10 year old, and Ash having to lose literally every single Pokemon League.

If it breaks at least one of those habits, I might really get back on board with it again.

Lol I guess so.

I'm suprised Nintendo came out of nowhere with this sudden push for Toadette.

She's not too bad, though.

They realized having identical toads was kinda lame. But instead of having player 4 be Wario or something cool like that they used Toadette.

 

[Shyy_Guy595]

Wario wouldn't really make that much sense. It'd be cool to see him, but Toadette is an inoffensive pick and she was kinda just unimportant beforehand, so this helps her.

 

[Z25]

New Mario Maker level out, a lot more proud of this one. It’s simple, easy enough, a decent length and I like the theme I came up with. Please give it a try!
3LT-K9H-FPF.

It’s called parachute party, have fun!

 

[PLATINUM7]

Charmander

Ok, went with Charmander.

Looks like it'll be the slow game for now because there is nothing to help you get through Brock when you pick Charmander in Gen I.

how does he put pants on

One thing that always bothered me about Super Mario 3D World. If they weren't gonna have rideable Yoshis, why not just make him a playable character instead?

Teen Titans was legit bro. It was one of the shows that sparked my love of animation.

And the show that sparked my love for goth chicks

So that's what made you love your mother, Cutie Gwen ?

One nub foot at a time. How else?
