Day 50: Mega Diancie

Insert Crystal Gem joke here. Particularly one about Rose Quartz :nifty:

We made it

50 days of counting down Mega Evolutions

72 days of counting down Gen 6 Pokemon

365 since the last Pokemon Presents

12 years since Pokemon X & Y

After all this time, the long awaited return to Kalos is on it's way. And tomorrow we finally get to see it for the first time!

Nothing else to say, but-



Good to have you back, Zygarde :yoshi:

GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK ZYGARDE

Congrats on completing your Kalos and Mega Evo-chronicling series. I'll be finishing my own PFP chronicle series very soon, and I'm glad to have taken these journeys with you guys. I'm so excited!

Also the Diancie movie was surprisingly good, but then again I'm a Genesect movie apologist so don't listen to me lol

That song is best suited for Christmas. :p

Joking aside, it is quite a good song, very cheerful.

Speaking of Sonic...(This is for everyone to read, by the way)

Here is this idea for the gameplay of a Sonic game idea I had in mind.

Here is another game idea of mine, which is a game like Sonic CD. I don't have a story yet, but I do have the way the gameplay would work. Basically, there would be signs that allow Sonic to travel to the past and future in the level. However, it is not in the way you think, and there IS a catch to how it works this time around. You know the timer that is part of the UI, and is on the corner of the screen, usually the top? Well, the timer would go from -99:99:99 seconds (the past) to up to 99:99:99 seconds (the future). Sonic must use the time travel mechanic that, when it activates, allows Sonic to run forward or backwards in time in place, though speed must be built up first before Sonic travels, and he does not move until he stops time traveling. During the process, the timer will accelerate either forwards or backwards, and Sonic will thus go to an earlier point or a later point in the level where different things and events will start happening by then. Sonic can wait for the time go buy in terms of the future, but it is not recommended as it affects the chance to get an S rank negatively. With this, Sonic does not have to destroy roboticizers, as there are none, but he can do things in the past that will affect the future of the level he is in, and Sonic will have to do things at different points in the past to affect the future, or different points in the future before the most extreme point of the future he goes to, all while the timer goes back or forth during the action of the level through time travel. Sonic will have to do this to earn S ranks.

By the way, there is a second timer below the first one, which, in terms of getting the S ranks, is the one to rely on. The time of the second timer is constant, regardless of past and future, and the first timer does not have any effect on getting an S rank. Also, this would be modern and 3D, or 2D, either way.

What do you all think?
I've never listened to Christmas songs at the appropriate times anyway, restricting the ability to listen to The Darkness' "Don't Let the Bells End" to just December is masochism to the point of absurdity

ALSO WOW YOU COOKED. The Sonic CD idea of time travel was such a cool one and you expanded on it really well.

I wish I could help you much with developing a story but honestly all I can really say is 'add the Deadly Six' lol

Maybe I could add the Deadly Six. Really! I just would need time to figure out how to include them.

But yeah, I am glad you really liked the idea!

If capitalism ends, and Nintendo doesn’t own its IPs anymore, then what would be the point of Smash? The thing that unifies a majority of its roster would be gone. It could just be literally anyone. And there wouldn’t be any fun in that.

If IPs are dead, then we can make our Smash.

With blackjack and hookers.

You can do whatever you please with them. Either go for a redemptive route for I do, make them absolute maniacs like with IDW, or anything in-between. The great thing about the games-verse Deadly Six is that they're very flexible in their potential.

Also if Zeena and Zor could be a couple, that'd be great thanks (jk do whatever you want)

If capitalism ends we won't be worried about Smash.

We'll likely have been through at least two societal collapses and maybe another pandemic. We'll have been blasted back to small, tight knit hunter-gatherer communities. Modern technology will be a thing of the past.

Maybe it's what we deserve, but yeah. No video games in that scenario.

Agreed. Anyway, thanks for that, Pink Yoshi. I might go with the in-between.

Still, not everyone likes the Deadly Six, but where I am concerned, not only do I think they are good, but I am not afraid to take risks, anything with them included.

And I’ll be dead. So there’s that.

Nice to meet another person who thinks we can’t just transition into a communist utopia without massive civil unrest and an unraveling of society.

Could've been an accident, but Wario Bros could've also thought that if Tetris Attack had to be released as Panel de Pon, then Puzzle League games are out too.

But the problem with Tetris Attack was that it was called TETRIS Attack in a time where the Tetris Company will only allow the Tetris name on games that actually play like Tetris.
greninja'd by SneakyLink but what about Puzzle Challenge, the GBC one?

We'd all likely be dead.

These sorts of societal reboots don't happen quick. Even if extreme accelerationist Governments try to speed up the process, it would still take several generations before humanity is forced to "go back to its roots" as it were.

We need more capitalism.

Nintendo should DMCA Shroob for using a copyrighted name and image without a license.

And then sue him. Gotta pay 2 million for the rest of your life buddy.
You asked for it. I'm telling Paramount you're using the name of one of their Nicktoons but with one letter changed.

Oh god I'm totally next to get sued, I share a name with a species of Nintendo dinosaur!

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.

The best way to help people warm up to the Deadly Six is to show people what they COULD be and expand on who and what they are. That's what I've been doing with my lore and art!

What’s even the point of living? Besides loving my girlfriend.
Let's see.
  • Witnessing beautiful everyday moments like leaves blowing in the wind, the sun rising in the sky and birds flying through the air
  • Enjoying little things like the scent of fresh-cut grass and the taste of delicious pastries
  • Being able to talk to your friends, offline or online
  • Watching your favorite movies and TV shows
  • Reading your favorite books
  • Doing your best to help those in need so we can all live in a better world together
And that's just to name a few.

The fact that you are alive makes many people happy. Remember that.

Okay then! I might do some thinking with what to do with them. Thanks for that!

I don't believe the world will ever see a perfect utopia, communist, capitalist or otherwise. That's just wishful thinking. And I think there will always be bullies and bad actors trying their best to cheat the system for the own self-gain.

But I think even if the world never becomes a perfect place, it already has the potential to become a better place. I'm uncertain if it really will, but I still think it can.
I will forever maintain that a Gen 5 BDSP Style game will inherently be better than BDSP because BW is better than DP
I mean yeah sure but at that point just rerelease Gen 5 games without remaking them, I think they hold up.
Does journaling work? Does it actually help you process your thoughts? Because I feel like I need an alternative to just bombarding Smashboards and discord with my emotions every time my brain does a sad. But if I just journal I don’t intake new data to potentially fix things. I don’t know what to do.
It's worked okay for me. I pull out my phone when I get caught in a rumination cycle and right down some quick notes and it helps me break out of it.

Also helps me figure out what I wanna talk about during my next therapy appointment.

The world could never be perfect. Good things and bad things have to balance each other out, from what says the laws of physics to things in life. If there were not balancing out between good and bad things, then no matter how good things are at first, it won't last, and bad things can still happen if things are too good or perfect.

Still, the world can become better, that is for sure.

Sorry. My brain is doing a sad
It's okay. We all feel like that sometimes.

Just know we're here to provide support if you need it.

What's more annoying is they keep bringing back Zavok and only Zavok who is genuinelly the least interesting one in my opinion.
This is exactly my problem, too. Like, I love my guy Zavok, but just bringing him back over and over is NOT helping the Deadly Six's reputation. They keep trying to push their 'leader' when part of the Deadly Six's charm is their differing personalities and character traits. That's why I got so, SO pumped to see Zazz appear in CrossWorlds.

Some day I'll be able to play as my babygirl Zeena and I'll be one happy dinosaur.

Yeah, but WHY would that be an issue? They don't own Ninja Gaiden AT ALL, and that title is on NSO. Same with Killer Instinct or Demon's Crest. Hell, the former of the two is currently owned by a rival console manufacturer. At least in the case on little to no Mega Man, Street Fighter, Castlevaina and Contra on NSO is that they did their own collections available on multiple consoles and PC, including Switch. Clearly those titles would have to have some similar licensing deal,
Fair, but I don’t know, maybe it’s more pricey then they want for their online emulator and would rather a one time price, not one they have to keep paying to renew.

Could explain why we haven’t seen any mainline games on NSO, but got them as stand alone titles on the eshop.

Regardless, I hope they get on switch one way or another.
