So a story about Pizza Tower.

My last semester of college, I was in a 3D Art Studio class, and our project was to make our own unique 3D model of someone that we made up. Can be anything as long as it's humanoid. So someone in my class made the dude from Pizza Tower. At the time, I didn't know the game, I thought the dude was unique and made up like the rest of our projects. And apparently the teacher didn't catch on either. But he made a full 3D model of the guy.

Well, months later and Pizza Tower blows up, and I recogmize the maim character immediately because of the 3D Model. And since dude has a background in game design and looked a bit older than I was, I decided to look up the creator of Pizza Tower. Well, there's no images. No website, nothing, so now I'm here wondering if I went to class with the dude who made Pizza Tower or if the guy cheated big time and nobody caught on.

I can’t believe you were in a class with John Pizza Tower.

Cause catching ain't guaranteed to be first ball first catch. If I could get Critical Captures everytime sure it'd be one thing, but there's a very real chance I waste a bunch of time just chucking balls.
True but with quick balls and your high rate for increased crit captured, it’s probably a lot faster then to breed.

It's funny seeing people confused why Samurott is coming back for Scar/Vio and not the other 2 Unovan starters.


....it's almost like Samurott got a new form recently they want to push into the mainline games and not leave in a side-main hybrid game forever.

The Oshawott line was always my favorite starter line of all of them. Dewott especially.

I always liked SmugleafSnivy more than Oshawott until a few years ago.


....god calling it Smugleaf sure shows my age.
Me and my friends used to hate Snivy with a passion until a few years ago

Oahawott was one that had to grow on me but after playing Gen 5, boy it sure did. One of my favorite starters now, though starters always rank high on ny favorite Pokémon list. My top 10 alone has 3 of them

Also good lord


The poor elemental monkeys


Seems like everyone hates them lol.
They're among the few Pokémon I genuinely hate. The first forms are okay but the evolutions suck ass (the grass one is fine i guess)

I hope we get a water monkey starter so that they'll all be rendered absolutely worthless

So like, what was the point of Gamefreak introducing a brand two stage fire monkey mon, and then making a brand new two stage fire monkey mon that you can get like 10 minutes later in the exact same game
I'd say Darmanitan is a bit more than 10 minutes past that point tbh.

Yeah my memory was a bit hazy, I haven't played B&W in forever.
One has a bad gimmick and the other has a good gimmick with poor execution
Well that good gimmick was realized to it's full potential 3 gens later.

And they meant full potential

Radical red gave me new respect for them by turning into top tier Pokémon. They buffed their stats to like 110 and 80 across the board( or something similar) and gave them a gorilla tactics for special attack.

Makes them absolutely monsters in that game.

Before I dedicate, an ungodly amount of time to this Dudunsparce grind


I think I'll get the other stuff done first, namely, breeding an box organization.


Between alternate forms and gender differences, I'm going to have SOO MUCH box management.

To people who have made a Living Dex


How do you organize alternate forms?


Like for example, Wooper and Paldean Wooper.


Technically, normal Wooper isn't in the Paldea Dex(Until the DLC).

It's so wild to me that people have basically moved on from the whole "no NatDex" drama that came with the advent of Gen 8. I almost never see stuff like #BringBackNationalDex anymore. Even ScarVio's detractors have barely mentioned it from what I can see.

I never minded it myself, but I was always a bit easy to placate lol ¯\(ツ)

Professor Pumpkaboo Professor Pumpkaboo my late ass is finally getting to the Wave 1 of the Engage dlc, and holy **** Soren is hella horrendously down bad for Ike. And here I was thinking his only impression on me would be “**** off or be useful to me”, but now I understand why people always call Ike, and Soren by default, gay.

…but I can support it completely (tho Chrombin is probably better)

I think people just put the regional version next to the normal one box wise and go on with the dex as the regionals don’t technically have national dex numbers that are different from their normal form.
