  1. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Was... was that not the goal? Lmao. In the first place, isn't potential in and of itself nothing if not an amalgamated IV/EV system where the Power of Friendship and Determination replaces bottlecaps? It simultaneously determines the reward behind Effort, and indicates at-birth determined...
  2. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Well that's not fuckin ominous. Technically it was a ??? Type back then so… does it still count? Semantics but still
  3. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Great to see Simon breaking beyond his limits, and topping it off with another change to his nature at that. In practical terms that’s unlikely to always be an option. Fire type trainers for example, or trainers who tend to raise behemoths. More likely it’ll probably be standardized through...
  4. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    He realized that her offer was out of complete, genuine goodwill and acknowledged it may even be better for the Mon. But shut it down with not a No, not a I Can’t, but absolutely not. Even with the rest of it nonverbalized definitely seems like the tone would’ve been harsh. Or absolutely...
  5. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    For as harsh as that came off, he might have unintentionally saved Jasmine from ruining her career. After all, remember Amphy? Now imagine that but with a who knows how old golem that’s suffering from unknown damages that she can’t let anyone know exists on pain of Grundy.
  6. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Well, that’s depressing. I think I did predict this sometime back but was hoping the situation was less… indiscriminate. Obviously this story runs a bit on anime logic but also… i can’t help but try and put some actual logic to that. Damn, got too tied up in ground types and didn’t consider...
  7. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    I don’t think anybody forgot anything so much first considering if crystal Onix would ever even make it onto the team. And that’s not even getting into ways to justify ‘particular pokemon being head and shoulders above others’ with what we know about the separate grading scales that seem to...
  8. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    For when flying isn’t an option…? Inside caves, mountains, thick forests he may want to venture into for one reason or another. Or just flat out being in n the ground where he’s a less obvious presence. Yea, considering the first thought would be to replace the ground typing with whatever type...
  9. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Glad to see this story come back around Karn… a play on words? Not a theme of any of the other names really, but it's an highly unusual name. Carnivore, Karna, and Cairn are what first come to mind. For the latter I'd think Runerigus. If it's referring to the MTG planeswalker, I have a hard...
  10. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Ah shit. It’s not a murderous, vengeful Mon. It’s an empty husk that kills everything and spams amnesia because of ingrained ‘pain go away when forget’ habit, isn’t it. I suspect the reason it hasn’t been put down is mostly due to it specifically being a flying type and nesting in Mt Silver...
  11. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Is that fact that Grundy, the thing that's always liable to kill something is usually a maybe but quag is an absolute no at all times not a tip off? My guess is on severe PTSD rage-inducing panic attacks backed by the fact it's probably a pretty monstrous ground type, arguably the most wide...
  12. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Good observation. Wonder if it will 'upgrade' in the future with additional things like an altered 'EV' (for lack of a better term. General specialization or resistance training type stuff) in the future. After the Life Orb Incident I think they'd keep a much tighter ruling on neverbeforeseen...
  13. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    Considering the mini expo dump on why trainers tend not to own more than 6 mons I doubt we’ll see more than one, if any new members for a long while. But if there were to be more… More than anything I’m surprised there’s no Excadrill cuz Unova and all. Might be a more common pick, but seeing...
  14. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    From what’s been revealed so far by trainer levels it seems it’s a bit of a corrected scale to the games. Seeing later but not end gym circuit trainers with levels 40s ish makes me think it is kind of referencing GSC; but more scaled off the Red fight than what’s actually in game. So far to...
  15. Feel The Ground Shake (Pokemon - Ground-type specialist)

    My guess is the rivalry mattered more to the kids than it did to a poor old Wooper that was getting itself eviscerated every week. It got strong enough, but not enough to overcome an 8x difference; then the ‘you can do it boy’ pulls a Damien. It’s funny because with the lore the regi quality...
