I'm pretty sure he thinks that the ACS is in support of cancer.

dogs are like small children. They're okay to visit and see once in a while, but an absolute chore to own.

cats superior.
My thoughts exactly. I love puppies, but there are days that I don't want to have to take them out on a walk or go out in bad weather when they have to poop, or find someone to take care of them if I want to go somewhere for a few days and not come back home. With a cat I can give them clean litter and some extra food and water and if I leave for a week and come back the worst that's happened is that they accidentally knocked something over.

Looks like all the reason you need to pick up the PS2 version and play it instead.

I can't think of any logical reason to do this.
It's out now, GOTD with no waiting!
Also, if you don't have a PS3.
Also, it'll be cheaper regardless.

I was making a joke really, but the only time I've even heard of alpha being released to the public is MtG and I'm not even sure if that counts as a true "Alpha" since it was a product that was sold.

A beta version of a game is inferior to the actual release. Does that mean that the retail versions are alpha?

In Yellow, I always just leveled up a Butterfree until it learned Confusion to beat Brock.
I figured someone would say this. I never did because for some reason my 10 year old brain couldn't think outside the box and know that a level 12 Onix didn't have any rock type moves.

275.Vespiquen


And we go from a Pokemon that gets a long ass rant to one that there's not much I can say about. Vespiquen design is fine enough I guess, though I'm not a fan of the honeycomb dress. Beedrill is the superior bee Pokemon IMO (wasp, bee, whatever). I remember meeting some annoyance in getting a female Combee (yay 12.5%) but I guess as far as lore goes, it makes perfect sense, so I can let that slide. Of all the Bug type pokemon that are out there, Bugsy chose it for his HG/SS rematches, so maybe he's seeing something that I'm not, but it never gave me any trouble. It's NU tier, which isn't exactly uncommon for bugs (I think there's three in OU, Forretress, Volcarona, Scizor), but I guess it could be interesting to see how it fairs in comparison to all the other flying bugs that just get rockslide OHKOed.

276. (Bruno's) Onix


Sorry snake lovers, Brock's signature Pokemon can't get much more credit than this. It's design is really simple and boring, just a bunch of rocks slapped together to form a snake, whoopie. I don't really recall any character development in any of Brock's Pokemon, sans Vulpix, so I can't even give it much credit for anime awesomeness (only real memorable time was it losing to an attack it's immune to, lol anime logic). In the anime, he even evolves off screen (which I guess implies his siblings traded it away while he was gone, little bastards).

In fact if anything Onix deserves less credit for being Brock's because in HG/SS he's among the only gym leaders rematch (well, lol Claire she makes even less sense, really...) that has an NFE in his team. In fact, game Brock only ever evolved Onix in Round 2 of Pokemon Stadium 2 As far as battle usefulness, he was only fully evolved for the one generation that was dominated by Parasect and psychic types, so of course it was going to be UU. I will admit that in Pokemon Yellow, Onix was a legitimate threat. IIRC, Mankey was really the only Pokemon that was available at the time that you could effectively use against it without some hardcore powerleveling or a ton of potions (I do recall beating it once with just Quick Attack Pikachu, but I think it was level 16 by then). Even in R/B if you choose Charmander it's special defense was so low that Ember did well enough against it.

It also annoyed me that Bruno literally always had at least one Onix in his team when even in R/B he neglected Poliwrath and Primeape and had even more available options in future generations (well except Stadium 2 where his teams just threw his theme out the window anyway. Seriously, Granbull, Blastoise, Clefable, Muk, wtf). In fact the only time he had a pure fighting team was in the HG/SS rematch (The Hitmon Trio, Lucario, Hariyama, Machamp). It's little details, but it bugs me when gym leaders/E4 advertise themselves as a certain type and use others when there are available options (Except Dragons since Gyarazard gets screwed on typing anyway). Anyway, it seems that Onix has gotten away from me. Mediocre Pokemon, needed an evolution badly in Gen 2, got it and still kind of sucks, but more on that later.

playing pokemon at this age is shameful because it hasn't been good since RBY

if you're still playing RBY, great, nothing to be embarrassed about there
haha, hell man, I agree with you on a lot of things but RBY is objectively the worst generation of Pokemon.
RSE is the only legitimately bad generation of Pokemon. There's a few gems in there, but not many. I ended up beating the E4 with four pokemon simply because I didn't find anything else I could justify training by then.

I wonder what'd happen if you went to a college campus, and tried to find someone who didn't: A) still play Pokemon, or B) have particularly fond memories of it.

I imagine that'd be awfully difficult, really.
