Man I was so hyped up for the Global Link to finally open up from the very day Black and White came out here, but now I'm wondering what it was I was even excited for.

I'm probably in the minority that was more excited for Ranked Battles than the Dream World, but you have to forgive me as I'm a competitive battle nerd. The idea of checking out the ( Read more... )

 I woke up today to find out that the 2011 Pokemon Video Game Championships and Trading Card Game Championships have been cancelled in Japan.

I'm not going to lie when I say I'm pretty bummed about this news. However... I'm not an idiot, and I know there are far more important things that Japan has to worry about right now than Pokemon. Granted, ( Read more... )

POKEMON BLACK AND WHITE ARE FINALLY HERE!

Too bad they just got released on the wrong side of the world!

Reply and I'll give you four fandoms. You then have to make an entry writing about your favorite character from each fandom, and why.

Still, I'm quite hyped about the release ( Read more... )

Now matter how many times I watch them, I always get all tingly inside because of how exciting they are. Me, ceal_kun, and mystary02 have also come to the conclusion that Nick ( Read more... )

I spent the majority of the day reading Umineko spoilers, as well as watching the live stream of the Pokemon World Championships. Quite possibly the best day ever? Possibly.

AMERICA EVOLVED INTO THE POKEMON WORLD CHAMPION!

The Top 8 were made up of four from Japan and four from America, and the final bracket was constructed in a way that every match ( Read more... )

Like any good bully, I now find enjoyment in using my vast knowledge of Pokemon to torment those those are less-informed.
