Description Found some ancient doodles in some very old sketchbooks and remembered this. Dug through a few old USB sticks aaaand found the old WolvesInRoleplay folder where I was momentarily blinded by the facking sparkle wolves.

Caution??? Whatever.
Seeing as I drew Riku and Sadie earlier I sorta wanted to draw Riku as a moody teenager. Her and her daughter are a lot alike it seems...

Old vs New side-by-side:



Anyone who remembers those days gets an imaginary cookie.

|D and trust me, that is a super rare occurrence these days. She's a tad more tame for the sake of character development.

...Don't tell her I said that or she'll kick my ass. ;3;

Ah jeez, now I'm questioning what you other account was and feeling dumb.



DEAD.
No, idk. I havent been playing EoS in a while since I'm pretty much done with everything. I can even evolve the two but I chose not to since the sprites/avatars really bother me, they are so emotionless and plain that I dont like them. Also the animated sprites are awful.
I've since then completed Gates to Infinity which became my obsession for a few days and I even evolved my starters and got to the end of everything.
Now I'm just waiting for the new PMD thats coming out in a few months; Super PMD. And I'm very much looking forward to it. c: I have a team idea planned but also an alternative or two if I cant have the duo I want.
If I can have a vulpix partner (given that ALL the starters are featured I worry there wont be many non-starter pokemon to use apart from riolu and pikachu) I might consider D'Jok and Verity. ..but the story will mess up their timeline. thus I rarely use the same teams in different games.

Nothing bad it just got hacked so I made dis one




I prefered the older games mainly because playing GTI gave me migraines from the 3D sprites :I but I am excited for the new PMD and I heard rumors of mega evolution in the game but I highly doubt it.

:u


Idk, they took getting used to but if you turn off the 3D on the DS its okay.
The thing that bothered me was the fact you could only do one job per time. That was a bad move.
But I got into my team and the other teammembers as characters. I havent finished Paradise but its nice to build some. But yeah, doing multiple jobs per dungeon would make things work better since materials...

And there probably will be but maybe for NPCs like... enemies.

tross14 In reply to Mikaces [2015-07-31 15:04:42 +0000 UTC]

Definitely a bad move with the Jobs.


And now im imagining a tiny little Oshawott taking on a mega Lucario. Reminds me of the first time I fought Dialga way back when. Death and respawn many many times. Then I ran out of revivals.

Then I took an arrow to the knee.

Anyway yeah I usually keep 3D disabled but I stopped playing a bit after the end. It just got repetitive after a while.

Aw man, don't even get me started on my original Platinum run... I swear I was like 15 levels or so underlevelled and only won against Giratina because I threw the bloody masterball at it.
Never again...

And yeah, I get that. I didnt like GtI either at first. But I ended up giving it a fair change after letting it collect dust for like over a year (I preordered it and all). What I find helping me get more invested is playing was pokemon ocs rather than myself or just a random pokemon. In GtI I played as Stein (my Oshawott-Samurott W2 starter - which was my first beaten game) and Roxxie (my Haxorus in the same game, her being a major beast) aaand since I was kinda shipping them before (because they look so dang cute aha) aaand then made the GtI connection. After the Great Glacier expedition things tend to pick up once you have all the party members.

[still majorly heart broken that Samurott and Haxorus cant breed together in-game] ;A; I moved all my teams to Pokemon X and tried there and nop. No shiny axew for meeeee. [cries]

Sounds like my run through Silver you know back when we had 1 screen. Yeah the dinosaur days.

ocs.....dang I haven't had a new oc since Drake (my Zoroark from the Celebi Zorua event back in black) might be fun to make new ocs in Gti.

Shiny pokemon back when I had a bit of an oc obsession I gave each shiny a story.

There are other ways to get a shiny but it's harder to get a wild shiny but in my opinion its rewarding.

I wasn't into Pokemon back in the day. |D ...Well, that's a lie. I was a huge fan of the show to the point of dressing up as closely to Ash as possible and running around the house throwing my plush Pikachu at people. Yeah.
Had some toys but it sorta died out, since I never have a gameboy or a DS til fairly recently aha. I only played Platinum like 3 years ago or so since my uni friends encouraged me to do so.
What they started cannot be undone.

OCs make things better aha. That's why I play as OCs these days in almost any game I can.
Skyrim, Pokemon, Animal Crossing etc. If you have an open game like Skyrim playing through your oc's morals keeps things interesting for longer.
And for Pokemon I do nuzlockes to keep things interesting. c:

I actually found many shiny pokemon in the wild in my short years of playing. |D
I found a shiny girafarig in Platinum, skorupi in W2, weedle in LG, and most recently a shiny slugoo in my first playthrough of X.
Since then I bred an eevee (for a friend), riolu and accidentally chimchar. ...I say accidentally because I was breeding for good parents and then one of the eggs was shiny fairly quick. xD He's good tho. Docile natured with Iron Fist. Not the best but neutral is better than bad.
That doesn't even cover the fishing chain shinies, those are super easy to the point where I trade them on wonder trade. Im yet to successfully chain a shiny in the grass though.

NowIsaywuuuuut I need to get you a GameBoy Advance and a copy of classic Ruby pronto


I dont have any of the toys (With exception of replica Pokeballs) I usually collect the cards.

Man Skyrim brings me back. Mainly to killing the preacher in Whiterun out of pure annoyance.



As for nuzlockes the last one I did was a Daimond nuzlocke were it got progressively harder with each badge starting with releasing your predetermined starter then eventually were you cant use a Pokemon center all the way to trying to beat the Elite 4 with one Pokemon.

As for my list of shiny Pokemon my first was a Starly grass found in Daimond eventually I picked up breeding and got a shiny Shinx then in Black I found 3 in the grass a Zorua Cryoginal and Whirlipede. After I went back to Daimond and bred some more till I got a shiny Riolu and my most recent shiny a shiny Vulpix from breeding. Each now fully evolved (except Cryoginal of course) and named. Starraptor was deemed Ty Luxray was Chris Zorua was Lilly and Cryoginal was Nick as for Scolipede she was named Kathryn and Lucario and Ninetails were named Leo and Scarlet.

Ehhh, Im not a fan of Hoenn. :u It's like... my least fave region. I'll take Reb/Blue or Crystal doe. |D Actually, I think I'm might have Gold a friend gifted me. :u Hmm...
Eh. One day.

I got tons of stuff now. Plushies, pokeballs, figurines, cards etc. My nephew and niece love pikachu and the films. :u And constantly steal the plushies from my room when they visit.

I never found him that annoying tbh. |D Nah, I found that orc loanshark in the DLC worse since he actually sends goons after you. It's not difficult to beat them but they ruin a lot of stealth modes for me...

Huh, never heard of that nuzlocke. I keep my rules consistent throughout. Surprisingly Pokemon Y is the one that claims first place in the sheer amount of pokemon lost. 21 I think. Like, 3 died on victory road. You can imagine that damn thing being hell. I was never so happy to see the exit of a cave... and I've been to Mt. Moon.
So yeeeah.. I spent like 3 days training new teammates for the E4 since it wasnt an Eliminationlocke. I will do that one eventually...

And nice, I've been trying to chain a shiny zorua and shinx for ages, as well as breed. my friend gifted me a shiny shinx. I've calmed down a bit shiny-wise now tho since I rarely ever use any post game shinies. I dont have a second 3DS to trade among games etc and I dont really play normal playthroughs anymore for it to not be considered cheating.
I'm doing an egglocke soonish and some friends have bred eggs of pokemon for me, idk which. Some have boosted shiny items so theres a chance of a shiny egg.

tross14 In reply to Mikaces [2015-08-10 14:29:15 +0000 UTC]

I cant say Hoenn was the best but it was my first real playthrough of Pokemon so it harbours a lot of nostalgia.

Also I do have a copy of Silver if you know how to fix the damn save wich is what ruined a perfectly great nuzlocke >I

Ugh that guy sucks. He manages to send them after me exactly when im doing stealth missions.

I like the films XD although some of the more recent films are rather sad *coughcoughMasterOfIllusionscoughcough* My favorite is still the first one.

Eh it was a thing me and my friends did our senior year in highschool. As for the rules I keep a difrent set for each game.

Ugh god Victory Road was hell the first time I ran through it. and then I tried to get past ti with one underleveled Pokemon.

You know once you do a nuzlocke you never say feint again they always die.

Also thanks.

Yeeeah aha, I'm a gen 4 starter. So it was hard to play gen 3. I still can't bring myself to care about it even with the remakes. The landscapes and the actual pokemon are meh to me. I'm not saying Sinnoh was waaaay better but I guess nostalgia makes me love it a little more above others. |D

Does it erase the file? |D If so then its the battery or something. Old cartridges die over time. I think you can get them fixed in game shops but idk for sure.

And yeeeah... I miss the days when they faint. |D Now even if I'm not nuzlocking I have a need to not faint in battle. Makes me a better player but yeah. xD

And thanks for what? xD

Sinnoh was always my favorite even if I started gen 3.

And yes it did erase it wich was iratating. I've tried to go to a Gamestop but they dont have the stuff to fix it.

Sorry thats a result of my bad multitasking skills. ^^'

Eh, less well constructed humor with a punchline, and more overbearing snark.

[Voice dripping with sarcasm and condescending superiority]  Thank you for the cookie, though to be fair, I'm honestly surprised you knew what one was. It's not your fault, though I'm not entirely sure how anyone could confuse a biscuit with a cookie, but hey, at least you're learning.
[Cue brick, and the scalding with hot tea]

PSS: I need to try some English cookies to compare them too, but then it all depends on which American cookies you're eating. Oreo's, all the different flavors of Girl Scouts, chocolate chips and then it depends on whose they are, the list goes on.

HEY, NO DISSIN' DE DRAUGR.

I mean.. think about it. A lot can shout. They probably were nord/dragonborn heroes at some point in time.
Now theyre common enemies...
Sad, really.

I once found a draugr with a set of elven armor and was like "...well, no nord would wear it. ...no NPC nord anyway. WHY IS THIS HERE!?" Then like... it came to me. this tragic backstory of this poor soul.

Then I was like "...Im over thinking this."

Agryo In reply to Mikaces [2015-07-25 00:30:15 +0000 UTC]

Apparently they were part of a cult that worshiped the dragons. *adjusts nerd glasses*
What I find sad is that their revival due to drags returning didn't grant them. Like. Common sense? Speach? Their old personalities? Though creepy I always found the ghouls of Fallout being just really really unlucky immortal infertile radiation-filled humans interesting. Until they got close, in which case I screamed. XD

Omg tell me this backstory. 
My first thought reading that was that this dude had married an elf, who died on the field of battle fending off an invading army or something and he got the armor back along with a letter from the army. Thus, he joined a dragon cult and fought off invaders wearing the armour of his hubby -because somehow I picture this dude as the manliest gay Nord ever- in the hopes that he could avenge his lover's death. And he ends up dying in it. =3

Mikaces In reply to Agryo [2015-07-25 00:40:14 +0000 UTC]

I kind of associate the worship to Dragon Priest draugr who are the URGHSTANDSTILLWHILEIHITYOU enemies. I think the common ones are just nord heroes for the most part since there was the whole rebellion where Nords learned to shout to defeat their dragon over-lords but still, many died. Gives me a lot of cool character ideas ahaha. weird tho. I wish some had common sense. would be neat to hear the stories from first witness accounts. Might be too weird tho.
I'll take draugr over zombies from oblivion any day tho. orz those things give me nightmares... [will never forget the first time playing and running away like a wuss]

OH GOD THATS AMAZING. xD better than my story so Ill go with that. I was playing as a girl tho, so the armor was automatically women's but yeah.
Idk if it was randomly generated loot, probably was aha.
If you wanna check sometime it was in that destroyed ruin just near Rorikstead. Its like a camp site with vampires and you have to go through a trap door to an underground chamber which is a pretty small room. it's like.. one of the draugr there. The sort that doesnt wake up. |D
