now that were in an era of only portions of the dex making it into each game, those 6 monkeys could be cutting your two favorite 3 stage lines! Or your three favorite 2 stage lines!

I mean they haven't been in since XY which was before Dexit so they aren't causing any harm!

But yeah I just don't like them cause they're ugly, but I don't hate them any more than any other ugly mon

I almost never do this. Actually, it just happened in Persona 3 Reload, where I mostly used Yukari/Junpei/Akihiko (except a brief stint with Shinji :( and switching out Akihiko for Misturu near the end) and it felt weird, which is when I realized how unusual this is for me.

Persona 4 was the exact opposite, my final team was Kuma/Kanji/Naoto
FF7 I used Cait Sith and Cid

I usually try to rotate through my party members to keep everyone equally leveled

I have never done this though

Soft

Floaty Fall Division
+3 Vileplume
+2 Entei
+1 Voltorb
-1 Shiinotic
-2 Pansear
-3 Meloetta

Dark Void Division
+3 Lanturn
+2 Gyarados
+1 Wooper
-1 Houndstone
-2 Vigoroth
-3 Malamar

pretty weak divisions today

Gen 3 and 5 have some of my all time favorites (Sharpedo and Bisharp) and others I really like but also have a few stinkers each

I went with Gen 2 because it doesn't have a single stinker. Houndoom and Tyranitar are my favorites, but the rest are all great too. Dark type hit the ground running

Also, to tie this into yesterday's poll, I feel like Ninjask would have been more interesting as Bug/Dark instead of yet another Bug/Flying

Chrono Trigger
Kirby's Dream Land 2

...did I sign up?

I like Simisage but the rest are buns

Poor Orthworm :/

I like it but didn't have the points to spare. Good to see Palafin get through though

Fuji
Rushmore

Tough match

Auron

Don't you dare

Im seeing a couple of the Ninja Turtles being mentioned, and, while they may meet the letter of the law here, I dont think they meet the spirit. If were being honest, we associate them with their mask colors more than their base body colors. Id be more likely to think of them in blue, red, purple, and orange categories than green. Just my two cents.

They're heroes in a half shell and they're green!

Hulk
Yoda
Luigi
Kermit the Frog

Voted 3 but it's hard carried by Armaldo and Ninjask. Shedinja is cool too

Defog might be the worst division so far in my opinion.

I had the opposite reaction lol

A bunch of stuff I want to give a plus too and nothing I want to minus

I know nothing about the game except for the title

Thank you Take

That leaves Trevor and... Zach Wilson as the last 1st round QBs from the 2021 draft on their original teams

I imagine Trevor will be standing alone soon enough

No, easily the worst of the main characters

G-MAX STONESURGE
+3 Gengar
+2 Escavalier
+1 Lilligant
-1 Corsola
-2 Medicham
-3 Simisear

RAZOR WIND
+3 Palafin
+2 Tinkatuff
+1 Honchkrow
-1 Kubfu
-2 Morelull
-3 Xurkitree

What happens if two people choose the same flavor

Frisbee

Ezio is easily more iconic and deserving of being here than Altair imo

not sure on the other 3 though

Spoink is adorable and has a funny name how did it finish negative :(

Favre to exit retirement to play for the Browns?

We dont.

He wants his votes counted or to be welcome in this community he can go back in time and make better life choices.

I just meant counting Greninja +3 as Shedinja +3 lol

MZero posted...

I did a recount of Day 3. I got the same results for Power Trick and mostly the same for Morning Sun, although I have Seel -43 and Terapagos -10, which totals to 0 instead of -6 as it did originally

Morning Sun
Haunter 66
Shedinja 33
Gastly 11
Seadra 11
Archen 4
Scovillain -9
Terapagos -10
Morpeko -31
Iron Crown -32
Seel -43

Interestingly, Ulti did vote this day but I had to throw both out anyway, as he gave Huntail both -1 and -3 in Power Trick, and his +3 to Greninja in Morning Sun who is not in this division! He probably meant Shedinja, I guess? However, he did +1 Seadra and -1 Gastly, so if you want to use those results that would break the tie. Nothing else really changes

Ulti confirmed that he did mean Shedinja, so if you want to include his votes for this division it becomes:

Morning Sun
Haunter 68
Shedinja 36
Seadra 12
Gastly 10
Archen 4
Scovillain -11
Terapagos -10
Morpeko -31
Iron Crown -35
Seel -43

Thanks for helping me with the recounts! We're all up to date now! But what's that, you want even more fresh results? Well I got 'em for ya

No problem! and I can cover for you when you're on vacation

Day 4 recount complete! Original tallies added up to -2 and -5, respectively.

MYSTICAL POWER DIVISION
Tyranitar 76
Oshawott 26
Yveltal 17
Froakie 10
Corvisquire 9
Oricorio 5
Numel -14
Polteageist -15
Darumaka -43
Timburr -71

Tyranitar (+3), Oshawott (+4), Froakie (-1), Numel (-2), Polteageist (+1), Timburr (-3). Oshawott was missing 2 points and the rest is the rest is Ulti's vote.

MIRROR SHOT DIVISION
Volcarona 80
Cloyster 43
Clefable 23
Machoke 4
Shieldon 0
Grotle -15
Volcanion -19
Uxie -22
Kakuna -23
Lickilicky -71

Cloyster (+1), Clefable (+2), Machoke (+4), Grotle (-2), Kakuna (-3), Lickilicky (+3). Kakuna falls below Uxie and Machoke beats Shieldon straight up instead of needing a tiebreaker. Uxie was missing a point and Machoke was missing 4 and the rest is Ulti (he gave Uxie -1, so Uxie ended up with the same score anyway)

Paratroopa1 posted...

I think half of day 3 and all of day 4 still needs to be recounted - other than that I will be able to tally recent days soon!

I did both divisions Day 3, I just didn't post Power Trick because it was exactly the same as Aria's original tally

I remember a bunch of stuff about Sonic in Melee, like if you put the game in Japanese and went to name entry, Sonic would show up as an autopick name eventually, which was supposed to be a hint or something. I remember spending like 10 minutes looking for it lol

With stuff like Mew under the truck, Sonic in Melee, Nuclear Ghandi etc. you can actually try this stuff yourself in the game. Even the blowing in cartridges thing (which I also don't think really fits) you can try it and see if it actually works. But you can't test out the Madden curse, it was just a superstition people had. I think that's where the line is for me.

Yesmar_ posted...

I didn't want to start an argument in the main topic, but do the EGM April Fools' pranks really count as urban legends? I'm not saying an urban legend can't have an identifiable source, but if 90% of us could tell you exactly where they came from, that doesn't seem particularly "folkloric." I can't speak for the others because they were from before my time, but did Sonic and Tails being in Melee ever really get that divorced from the source?

I didn't know the Sonic and Tails thing came from there actually.

While we're on the subject, the reason I don't think the Madden Curse should count is because it's a superstition, like ghosts or something. For example, Nuclear Ghandi is very believable and in fact was implemented in later games. EA couldn't just decide to start including the Madden Curse. Also, it didn't affect the games themselves, it "affected" players in real life.

Maybe I misinterpreted the prompt but I don't feel like a curse on real life players is in the same vein as the other stuff.

I think the kid trainers pay you from their allowances. I'm pretty sure at least one trainer in the series mentions this but I could be mistaken. The adult trainers probably have regular jobs, and in fact a lot of them have their trainers type determined by their profession. Roark works in the mines, Lenora runs the museum, etc. I assume the kid trainers also get money by beating adults with jobs.

Grand_Kirby posted...

After all, the money spent at Poke Marts doesn't go back into the pockets of the various Trainers you fight.

Not entirely true. You can sell nuggets and such, which I assume other trainers find along their journey as well.

Where there's a will, there's a way

If Aria has them blocked they can't see the topic anyway

Looks like the eliminations were still right at least

Also if you'd like I'm willing to do a separate count and send it to you for double checking
