How do you think boxes work...

Whelp.

That's something.

 

[Boss Doggie]

It never returns, don't be so heartless.

Yeah becasue only Red uses boxes.

Even later games show your rival being in strange locations too.

I need clarification. I was always under the assumption that you'll be able to customize your trainer thanks to trailer footage showing the pink girl different from the main female trainer shown running alongside a male trainer, but I don't see that being confirmed floating around.

Could possibly be just a roaming trainer.

I want to hear any of creepy ghost story or rumor in the Pokemon game... I don't remember them very well.

Well then enjoy!

 

[EulaCapra]

Since Diamond and Pearl you'll occasionally team up with trainers in a few dungeon areas. They'll follow you around and all battles with be 2v2 tag battles, unless you run into another trainer solo.

The video was probably showing one of these instances instead of co-op.

Dear god, I hope not. Severely missed opportunity if we couldn't finally customize our trainers. Kinda misses the point of 3DS connectivity if everyone is the same two trainers.

Surprise - they actually have them!

Out of my head there's that mansion in Gen IV. However the one I am clear the most is in Gen V - Strange House. It has furniture mysteriously moving around whenever you switch rooms and dialog suddenly pop out of nowhere. A girl will mysteriously give you an item for summoning a Gen IV legendary. Apparently she was

afflicted with the eternal nightmare from Darkrai, so her parents tried to look for the wing to summon Cresselia, but she died, thus her spirit continued to linger, not knowing if she's a dream or not

. There's more details to that though,

including Darkrai actually being malicious

and something.

And more!

Even better: The Old Chateau used to be known for its apparently delicious cake (the Old Gateau) before it was mysteriously closed for some reason. Upon entering the mansion at night, you can encounter several human ghosts, at least one of which is in the dining room. Now check the trash can in that same room. What do you find?

Antidote.

My desktop calls out for it!



Helps me and I wuvs you forevah.

Tried and with my limited knowhow failed, sadly

My... my mind... why would you even... it even has a human centipede reference... don't ask how I know that... I need to lie down.

I still don't get the antidote thing tbqh

 

[Neiteio]

I don't have any photoshop skills. Sorry.

Would use it too though.

Tried and with my limited knowhow failed, sadly

Damn, no one in here knows how to use Photoshop. But thanks for trying...

 

[Hypatia]

Damn, no one in here knows how to use Photoshop.

I'm working on it for you, just a bit busy doing other things too.

Someone got poisoned by a bad Old Gateau? Iunno that seems too simple.

This suffice?

Edit: I'm sure if Hypatia's using Photoshop it will trump this Paint.NET effort
also MISSED A SPOT fixed

I appreciate the attempt, but the characters are outlined in white dots.

It implies items work for humans

 

[B-Dubs]

If it worked they would have survived. It implies they at least tried.

In several movies and such, an assassin will dispose of the antidote after successfully poisoning someone so that they're not caught with it. The implication is that the ghosts in the kitchen and dining room were poisoned to death.

No matter what you make of it, it's still more convincing than the "Blue's Ratatta" or "Giovanni suicide" theories

 

[zroid]

a winner is you

I think I'll use this bad boy too!

 

[Neiteio]

Oh, this is SO nearly perfect -- but can you fill in the two white spaces by Yveltal's right wing?

 

[UltimateIke]

Mine's best. 1080p too.

 

[TheOGB]

One day, I, too, shall master this level of technical wizardry

Edit: yo damn, Ike

 

[papercamm]

White spots on Yveltal...

 

[Neiteio]

Mine's best. 1080p too.

I made the original one so it'd fit my 1600x900 computer, though.

(But it's good to have this available for others with higher-res monitors!)

 

[UltimateIke]

Backgrounds scale?

The aspect ratio is the same.

[zroid]

White spots on Yveltal...

I was okay with those minor blemishes, but I guess Ike is the true winner.

 

[Hypatia]

This okay?

Alas I was beaten. Twice.

I hate the feathered selection tool ):

It still feels weird though - I mean you find a lot of junk in people's trash

I guess - definitely better than those two

 

[Neiteio]

The aspect ratio is the same.

Eh? I never realized 1920x1080p and 1600x900 were proportional...?

 

[UltimateIke]

Eh? I never realized 1920x1080p and 1600x900 were proportional...?

Both are 16x9 aspect ratio.

 

[Neiteio]

This okay?

THIS IS PERFECT! The others were, too, since I now know 1080p scales proportionally to 1600p.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Bet lots of people will love sprucing up their comp with this wallpaper.

Now I finally understand the purpose of this gif.

A fan theory that's popular because apparently people want Pokémon to be violent and edgy.

Blech, lol.

Pretty much. The only theory that's worse is the Giovanni suicide one, but that one was debunked with extreme prejudice.

http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f313/theory-did-giovanni-commit-suicide-hg-ss-60142/

I guess.

30 pages lol.

I recently watched the English version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pExn-S7WduQ&feature=related) of the Giovanni event battle in HG/SS and noticed a few extremely noticeable quotes and a mysterious noise.

After Giovanni trembles (literally) from defeat and makes his leave, the normal *walking out cave* sound effect isn't heard, and instead there is this *SPLASH* sound followed by dead silence. As Giovanni's secret hideout was in Tohjo Falls, the entrance was directly next to the rapid waters and he could've committed (or atleast) suicide.

After the *SPLASH* sound, the radio signals in from the Goldenrod Radio Tower Team Rocket members "Where has Giovanni gone? I wonder if he's coming..." As if to give you the assumption that he has forever vanished.

Ethan: "They keep calling their boss. I feel sorry that they don't know he's not coming".
Giovanni never told Ethan or the protaganist that he won't go to Goldenrod, how did Ethan know?
Does anyone agree with me that Giovanni might've committed suicide?

Giovanni's actions and backgrounds were much more melodramatic and realistic than (for lets say...) Cyrus (Who wanted to make a new universe without soul). Team Rocket committed actual crimes like burglary, Pokemon slaughter, hostage standoffs, and kidnappings.

Other Alternate Theories Thought Up

1. Giovanni used Waterfall to get out of Tohjo Falls, thats why there was a splash noise.

Reason to disagree: None of Giovanni's Pokemon are capable of using Waterfall, and to get to his hideout, you go through the Kanto entrance. Which has no need for the Waterfall HM.

2. Giovanni dived and swam out.

Reason to disagree: Sharp rocks! High cliffs! Deadly!

3. Gone to a secret island to enjoy his life with John Lennon, Jimmy Hendrix, 2Pac, and Michael Jackson.

Reason to AGREE: OHHH YAAA

 

[zroid]

I don't get the point of the Raticate theory. It's based completely on circumstantial evidence.

 

[Neiteio]

I just created this thread about the design origins of Pokemon, in terms of the people who create them. Like apparently, this British guy named James Turner made the Vannilite line! :O Come to the thread and answer my many questions!

 

[ScraftyDevil]

I'd like to read that one.

Read and weep.

The so-called "splash" noise was pretty obviously the radio crackling on, and Giovanni appears in Gen V alive and well.
