Description « First | ‹ Previous | Next ›

Robin begins to realize that League battling is not as fun and exciting as it is on TV and it is, in fact, obnoxious as balls + very hard to do without the movesets on hand.

For those wondering whose Tumblr that is, refer back to page 2 .

After reading this comic I tried doing my own Nuzlocke on Soul Silver, depositing deceased 'mons instead of releasing so I could transfer them when I finished.  Didn't work out so well since I had a near total party kill thanks to Chuck's double teaming Primeape.  My only Pokemon left was a level 24 Tentacool when I won.  Since Jasmine's gym was immediately after and none of my back-up mons were nearly leveled up enough for her and were generally poor matchups against steel, I had to give up there.  Oh well.
I noticed a slight error here.  The way Lassie asks "That got on TV?" indicates he learned about the explosion being televised from that conversation, but no one actually says that it was on TV.  The scientist only implies it was in the newspaper when he asks if it would kill kids to read the paper.  You might change Lassie's question to "That got in the news?" or "That made the news?"  It's not that big an error though; I only noticed it on my second read-through.

Anything that is inflammable, in a sufficient quantity, and at a appropriate concentration, can explode/combust quickly in the air..

If you have, say, a room where the air is filled with sawdust for example, well, past a certain ratio, it just needs something to ignite the mix, and everything will burn..

Actually flesh doesn't explode when lit on fire, but it dose explode when exposed to extreme heat. also plants produce ALOT of flammable stuff.

Im not keen on the idea that the pokemon can use illegalmoves. how exactly would you register aand keepa  a law on that?

reallymy only complaint for this addition.

Mewitti In reply to Omen11 [2013-07-22 05:06:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it'd be really tough to keep tabs on the attacks Pokemon are allowed to use. You'd need to have laws, regulations, and referees, and all that would have to be handled by an enormous centralized organization... a kind of... league, you might even say...

You are a fascinating individual, yes ma'am. You have bloated my brain twice this morning, once with a slam-dunk great-tastic take on Pokeballs in this 'verse and then again with revealing what should really stop surprising me as being another moving backstory for Lassie. I need to stop underestimating you, holy cow, I wonder how this leads into the Rustboro Gym. Ve-ry nice! I can't get enough of your concepts blah, I'm reeee-eeally interested in the legal aspects of the system you've got going. Wauh! Do I dare start on the art and humor, even... nah, though I love that Robin brandishes his Cascoon like a weapon XD too cute.

Mewitti In reply to simperingidiot [2013-01-05 02:14:43 +0000 UTC]

Funny you mention that; I think I can safely reveal that Robin's actions are going to give the readers quite a few chances to see how the legal system works.

Thank you very much for the kind words. <3

birdconure [2013-01-03 18:25:07 +0000 UTC]

Wait....battles are supposed to be continued until a pokemon is unconscious or knocked out, but a pokeball won't work on the unconscious aaron?

I'm confused...its illegal for his poochyena to use bite because its not lvl 13 yet? Or is it more like they are not allowed to battle with that pokemon until it is lvl 13? 0_o...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Mewitti In reply to birdconure [2013-01-03 19:45:27 +0000 UTC]

Yes, in this world Pokeballs can only catch/recall conscious Pokemon, so losing a battle is not only humiliating, but really inconvenient. Trainers usually handle the problem by carrying Revives, which are designed to jolt a Pokemon awake just long enough to recall them. I added a note up at the top of the page explaining why I interpreted things this way.

And your first explanation is correct! Lassie is not leveled enough, which means he should not be using Bite yet. Also, even if he was level 13, it still would have been illegal because Robin didn't command the move.

birdconure In reply to Mewitti [2013-01-04 03:39:19 +0000 UTC]

Thats an interesting way to look at it . And poor Lassie, its not his fault that he is able to use bite attack.

Oh I like your explanation for movesets! I've always wondered why a Pokemon couldn't just bite something without actually knowing the move xD Great page Love Lassie's expressions.
