This is the first time I've ever laughed at something on Tumblr. (Quick, someone write that AU fanfiction! =P)

I was just thinking about a Pokemon/Steven Universe crossover! That certainly did make me laugh, too

It's really really funny though because Steven Stone, "stone", gems can be stones (Lapis is an example), and after watching a lot of SU every time I do a pokemon-related thing and hear about Steven Stone I think of the squishy little Steven Quartz Universe...

Okay everything I just said is weird but I didn't deviate from the Pokemon topic so

We are the evolution stones! We'll always save the day!
I apologise for that.

Let's not derail this thread... umm... does anyone else think that the plot of XY is kinda similar to the plot of Fullmetal Alchemist? Some guy with a beard wants to kill everyone in the country, an immortal guy who's been wandering the world for ages wants to stop him, using lives as an energy source, the rocks made of dead Pokémon, a city in the dead centre of the map where the antagonist makes his plans...

hey, would a steel typed hidden power be good for an abra in a pearl nuzlock? i sorta accadently taurt my guy hidden power.

I really like Pokemon Shuffle, but the biggest downer is if you want to play for an extended period of time, you have to spend money.

I'm sorry, what? This is a puzzle game, right? I should be able to play it for hours on end if I want to. I mean, I wouldn't have too much of an issue if the hearts regenerated faster than freaking 30 minutes! What were they thinking with that?!

At least with Pokemon Rumble World you can play for a longer period of time (though I question not being able to buy diamonds after 3k because that is the oddest business practice in the world).

Yeah...Shuffle is like Facebook games, but without the option to bug people for more (free) lives. Kinda annoying, especially since most FB games let you "keep" your lives if you manage to clear the puzzle.

Also, just a guess, but the Rumble World diamond cap might be to lessen the damage if a kid finds or is accidentally left with credit card purchasing power. Just...look up stories of kids accidentally spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on free-to-play app games because iTunes leaves credit cards "logged in" for 10 - 30 minutes or w/e the deal was. I mean, parents' fault, be responsible, blah blah, but accidents happen and Nintendo likes to make sure that accidents aren't life ruining.

Yeah, I could understand losing a heart if you lost the puzzle, but if you won, why should it take them away? It takes them away BEFORE you do a puzzle, it's absolutely bonkers!

Oh, uh, wow, didn't know that happened. Still, I think they could have come up with something to prevent that from happening in some way, yet allowing you to buy more diamonds.

Speaking of PRW, I have 624 species captured. Getting close to completing my Pokemon collection.

[DragonGirl218]

Hm...I wonder if 3,000 is the maximum PokeDiamond limit in PRW because that's the most you should need...? I mean, all the balloons cost less than 100 each, and I can't imagine that clothes/backgrounds/frames/etc. could get too expensive. Perhaps it's in place so that someone doesn't buy more than they need and end up with, say, 1,000 extra PokeDiamonds that they can only use on Timing Stops and Continues and stuff...?

I think Nintento just doesn't want trouble with parents. I doubt that they are really concerned about the players' well being. I once had a little argument with them that lets me doubt them.

[DragonGirl218]

Hooooooly...! I finally beat one of the King's Requests in Rumble World! And all it took was a Ho-Oh just over 1,000 power with 5 star Sacred Fire to beat a bug-and-grass filled stage with recommended power...820+. ...I swear, I'm not terrible at this game! It was just tricky! And I haven't been getting strong fire types! >.=.>;;

[ignite444]

I've already hit 2k+ power Pokemon. XD

Btw, on some of the king's requests, it has an objective to not get trapped, but I don't get trapped and I still don't get the checkmark for it? Unless it means something else entirely (or it's a bug).

Also, I still haven't gotten the thing to clean rusty Pokemon. I'm at like, level 72 and I still haven't gotten it.

Oh, and Pokemon Shuffle? Yeah, people are NOT happy with how it is ran. Me either to be honest. Maybe if we speak loud enough Nintendo will do something about their stupid mechanic with it.

Like, really, I don't understand why they don't just have it where you ONLY lose hearts if you lose a stage. That would be fair. But no, that's not how it goes. -_- One of THE worst Pay-to-Play puzzle games I've ever come across.

Edit: Okay, quick question... Why are all the gift Pokemon for PRW so low leveled? I'm sitting here with 2k+ powered Pokemon and the gift Pokemon are all 200 and some. Honestly, I think the levels should be based on your adventure level to make it fair. Like, if you're at my level, which is 73, then the gift Pokemon you get will be 1,700+.

Because of their low levels, they are virtually useless to me.
