Hello!
What kind of Pokemon talk do you want, stranger? We got all kinds here. I guess as a general list of bullet points: My favorite type is Psychic or Fairy it's hard to tell lately; Sabrina was, is and forever shall be the best gym leader; Mega Mawile is the best thing to ever happen to me; I love the Mystery Dungeon games and Explorers of Sky is the absolute best I will fight people over it. My favorite main game is probably still Crystal based entirely in nostalgia factor, though White/Black/2 were the best story-wise. I also really liked the lore in Gen 4, so I have a lot of strong feeling about it too. I like to battle competitively sometimes but the desire comes in waves where I'm really into it for like a week then disinterested for a month, probably because I'm a salty loser. In Gen 5 I made type-teams for every type, and I have not yet gotten around to remaking those for Gen 6 combat and really should.
I have a few friends on Skype, and we all watched it together. It was a fantastic experience. Season 4 hype has been a constant since the announcement. Oh? When did that happen? Edited by CrystalElemental, Dec 19 2015, 10:52 PM.

Well, I happen to have a monotype team I'm mighty proud of (i wont tell you what it is tho!) so if you want, I'll gladly take you on with it! I've always been more or a main game kinda person than a mystery dungeon person. I do love love love the Pokemon Special manga tho. As for a fave gen, ain't got one. All of them are special in my heart. |

Oh hey, I remember that! Still haven't bought the game because of how I am as a person. It's on my list though.
Oooh, I'm good with that. I don't have any exclusively mono-type teams, but if you're okay facing mixed teams I'm good to battle. Friend Code is 5000-2180-7557. The issue is, I'm going to be incredibly scarce, as I'm currently in a low period in terms of competitive battling interest. I think it has a lot to do with how many other games there are I want to play. I've read a bit of the Pokemon Special manga. Not enough to remember anything going on, and it was only the early arcs. All I remember is that at one point Sabrina fused the legendary birds into a tri-headed giga-bird, and there was an Eevee that shifted between evolutions at will. Based on those two things, I think it's safe to say it's the coolest. That's a good way to be about Pokemon gens. They're all good, but some hit my preferences better than others. I do have to admit, I miss the darker, more in-depth story-telling from Gen 5 though. Those games were so good with their stories and characters, and I just did not have the same response to gen 6 at all. |

The length for TitS is still one of the things I dread about getting back to it, especially since I know Second Chapter is hovering in the wings, like some fearful black hole of time |

Boyd (his username is Gilgamesh here) read the manga for part 4 after Stardust Crusaders finished, and he liked it. I was planning on reading it but then part 4 was announced so now I'm just going to wait, but between Boyd liking it and how hard it is to get him to read things I'm pretty excited for it. Edit: Also you like Touhou so I feel like I'll just throw this out there, but the only thing I know about it is that Yukari is my favorite because she throws trains around. |

Hello! It's nice to meet you!
Okay, I recognize you from Lynx's intro thread (I've been lurking there). I think Saber is awesome in any context where she's not around Shirou. Fate/Zero Saber was best Saber, and she was good enough in UBW and Heaven's Feel, but the entirety of the Fate route hurt my soul. I know everyone else had a chance to complain about this, but Shirou's mentality in that route is awful and cringe-worthy. Yes Shirou, the lady with a giant invisible sword and battle armor shouldn't be fighting. Thank you, you're a big help. You stooge. Thankfully, I started on the VN, so my opinion of her has only gone up over time. Also, while I have this opportunity: Illya is the best character, I love her to death. I really liked F/SN's Caster. I really like Kirei too, though for odd reasons. I have a very strong attachment to characters who have no idea how to handle their own emotions, and Fate/Zero was basically just Kirei being confused about having feelings. I remember the exact moment I took a liking to him in the VN; in Heaven's Feel, there's a short side-skit where he's talking to his dying wife and she tells him he's crying, and his mindset is like "What, no, that's not what's happening here." It was a moment that I thought really did well for a visual novel, because they hid what he looked like so it was hard to tell who was lying. I just loved that scene so much... |

So, I don't really remember, because it's been a while since I played it, but here's my general strategy for all characters in all the Touhou fighting games: 1) Experiment with your basic attacks 2) Find one that's long range, has decent damage, and requires no skill to spam 3) Button mash for victory Hope that helps.
I've heard it's a long game, which is part of why I haven't picked it up yet. I've got a lot of things going at the moment, and I'd like to have fewer things for it to compete with. If I pick up too many games at once, it becomes a chore to try and get through them to move on, and then I wind up not enjoying them. That's no good, so best to wait.

I've heard part 4 is good, but not quite as action-intense as part 3. Not sure if this was an accurate assessment or not, but at the very least, it's going to be hard topping Stardust Crusaders. That's pretty accurate. She does throw trains sometimes. Well, summons them. Yukari's pretty cool. Not really one of my favorites, but I like her well enough. |

So I should stick with the character I know is semi-good. Or at least high-mid. Which still isn't good, and I should just learn Remi. |

You might want to put a trigger warning on that for Boyd's sake. |

I mean, I can't really comment since I play iku and abuse her bs flight mechanic and downright godly j2a, so... I'd just stick to a char you enjoy. Almost every character has unfair blockstrings in soku. You just have to set them up. |

Oh that's right, he's not a fan of Saber. If it's any consolation she's not my favorite Servant, but I do like her a lot. Do you mind if I ask why you don't like her? |

Saber is disgusting, 0/10, you failed. That said even Nasu thinks he wrote Fate route badly (mainly Shirou) and says he'd do it differently if he did so today. Also yes, Ilya and Kirei are both great in Heaven's Feel. Saturos can fuzzy little man-peach Ilya and Caster with you though, I'm not interested in doing that. They do for people that aren't obsessed. Anyway with regards to Diamond is Unbreakable it's like JoJo's slice of life. It's got a lot more character focus than Stardust Crusaders, with most minor characters showing up at least one more time after their debut. It's still weird and fun like the previous parts but also it's pretty comfy. It's where Stands start to get crazier as well. Also Josuke is a top tier protagonist. |

It's because her fans are annoying and she infringes on his favorite character's screentime. |
