I can't find any of the starters anywhereI need 25 more Charmanders to get a Charizard....
There's a place five minutes away that spawns a fuckton of Charmanders at least though.

No.. Think that's pretty good.
So you missed out on the best games of the series?
Sad!
Civilisation is a mess of a word tbf. Going from civis -> civilis -> civiliser -> civilisation and being a political term the entire time means it carries so much history with it, it couldn't help to be anything other than vague. The Proto-European kewis just meant to settle down, and a civis in Latin was just a settled person (e.g. in contrast to the pastoralist people of what is now Germany). You then get civitas (location of the settled people) as a word for city and then civis narrows to specifically city person in response. As Roman thought developed, civis began to have normative as well as positive associations - for example, what are the duties of a civis, their responsibilities, their rights? And so the word civis now denotes a legal and political status whereby you are afford rights and duties as a civis of Roma/Roman citizen. Non-Romans (by which I mean the city of Rome), even those who were also Italians (as in: lived in the area named Italia), are not extended the civis until the Social Wars, but this gets extended over the centuries so that soon the whole Roman Empire has "city rights", so civis stops being the duties of someone living in the city of Rome and starts being associated with the entire Roman nation/people, so a civis is a person who has particular rights and duties afford to them by their nation (i.e.: citizen).
And so you get notions of civilis, the issues pertaining to civis (i.e., what rights? what duties?), becoming civilis (civiliser) and finally the notion of something having become civilis (civilisation). So we started with something like "settled people/not nomads", and ended up with "people who have established conceptions of what one owes their nation". Only then European refuse to accept conceptions that don't fit their own or recognize that nations don't manifest uniformly and that nation itself is a contested term, and suddenly it ends up with "people who agree with European (or sufficiently similar) conceptions of what one owes their nations", which, unsurprisingly, means only Europe counts as civilised. Funny, that.
So yeah, trash term.
But I am looking forward to Civ 6!
Did you get Mew?Nope. I just spent so much time on those two games that I'm fucking done with Pokemon. I am what they call a Pokemon Master.As long as I can find my original copies.
They were good.. But Gold and Silver are the best with Ruby and Sapphire I would say are trash in comparison.. They aren't bad.. But the Pokemon overall weren't as good.Right? Diamond and Pearl were amazing

Now Kris is going to come in say "I don't play Video games, why are we talking about them."![]()
If the light headedness is bothering you, you can see a Neurologist who will order a Tilt Table test. They basically strap you to a table and then it rotates you to standing. They can monitor your bodies response. From Mayo:
I haven't listened to Rush in a while, is there a link?
Play Heart Gold or Soul Silver (of the two.. Pick Gold because they have the better exclusive Pokemon in my opinion).Well, I've actually only played Diamond & Pearl and Yellow, and Emerald actually. My first Pokemon game was Diamond.
But, like Kris, I don't play video games anymore. I just buy them and stick them on a shelf, and I occasionally glance over at them. I really haven't played video games since...two years ago? Once in a blue moon, I will, but not like I used to. Now, I'm more into arguing about politics and science.

They are fun to play. I wish I could play ps4 more, but hardly have played it.
i went through 5 playthroughs of soulsilver for legendaries, raised and EV trained about 30 other pokemon, and had 10 shinies. All this had cost me, no hyperbole, at least 800 hours of playtime across soulsilver and X. I put all of these in pokemon bank, because I was selling my 3ds and buying the newer revision.Gold and Silver were so awesome to play especially the remake. Play Heart Gold or Soul Silver.. It is a lot of fun. I'm playing Soul Silver and working on catching on legendary Pokemon. (Zapdos, Suicune down.. On to Raikou and Entei)![]()
I love Soul Silver because that generation has my two favorite Pokemon:
Togepi and Flaafy. GOAT Pokemon.
Don't start with me, fam. Don't even come for me.
i keep forgetting i have heartgold
for that matter i keep forgetting i even have a (3)DS

HGSS was the best remake a game could offer.

Can we all agree Gen IV is trash and B&W are the best modern games?

I had a New 3DS, I got rid of it because I never played it. I bought the boys each a 2DS so they'd stop taking our phones to play Pokemon Go and play a good Pokemon game. Those things are so boss, I went out and bought me one. I got them on special at Walmart for like $50 with Mario Kart 7. I downloaded Pokemon Red and Blue for them....but they just want to play X and Y.
Gen 4 is a little slow, and Sinnoh is a mess, but it's mostly fine, I guess.Real talk.

Gen 4 is a little slow, and Sinnoh is a mess, but it's mostly fine, I guess.
Gen 5 is definitely the best gen though, and Black 2 is easily, easily, easily the best Pokemon game on the strength of the massive postgame + challenge mode.
Gen V sucked. So many garbage pokemon.YAAASSS. All this Gen V love. <3
Gen V sucked. So many garbage pokemon.
I never played Diamond or Pearl but Platinum was great. Y'all a bunch of haters.
Agreed. So many great designs in Gen V: Whimsicott, Reuniclus, Braviary, Sandile/Krokorok, Dwebble, Joltik/Galvantula, Litwick+Chandelure, etc. Plus, dat music~ Route 10, Village Bridge, N's Farewell, and so much other good stuff. And a great post-game to boot. PokeStar Studios was so fun to just mess around with~ Not to mention much-needed gameplay enhancements like finally making TMs infinite use. I can't go back to pre Gen-V games for that alone.Real talk.

I'd be sad.Biggest proof Gen IV is disposable: No one will be sad when Game Freak skips it a remake and just remakes Gen 1/2 or Gen V next (if they remake any more at all).

Pokemon design is so lazy

2 is the best, 4 is great because HGSS adds all the shit they didn't add originally like the safari zone or the original three legendary birds.Gen III and Gen IV are trash. I at least beat Gen IV. Black/White were actually really good. I liked how you had to use all new Pokemon up to the Elite 4 as opposed to relying on the staples of the past gens. Plus, wild Pokemon scaled with you as opposed to being 40 levels lower even in the final areas.
Gen II will always be the best, though.

Portman doing good for a gop senator whos still for gay marriage. Hopefully other gop senators change their stance tooDems delaying $500K ad buy for Strickland because he sucks.

Why did Strickland being nominated for this race happen.
I was pleased by Clinton's recently released mental health care plan, which should be getting more attention. I hope she can get it done, and rapidly. The cost of mental health care has gone nuts since its mandatory inclusion in plans. Companies are getting plans with higher and higher deductibles, separated from your regular deductible, and numerous psychologists have simply stopes taking insurance altogether. It's one of those things that seems expensive until you understand how much not providing for the mental health of citizens is already costing us in dollars and lives.
So good on Clinton.
