I recently played Colosseum on my old Wii.
It's kind of hard for me to think of it as a "retro" game.

I am only interested in Pokémon Live! because one: it was the production that got Jay Goede, the voice of Mewtwo, to leave 4KIDS because they accidentally(?) broke his contract by printing his real name instead of his alias, Philip Bartlett. And two: "It Will All Be Mine" is unironically a song I like because it's Darren Dunstan, the man who later went on to voice Maximillion Pegasus and Splinter in TMNT 2003. He's glorious.
But I haven't sat down to watch it because I honestly don't know if I'll really be able to sit through it, just lived vicariously through the Team Rocket's Rockin' page on it.

I don't want to watch that musical but I do find it fascinating in the sense it's a relic of a different time that wouldn't happen in this day and age. There's videogame movies and videogame netflix original series but can you imagine them making a videogame musical these days?

I usually use the Thoughtful rating when I'm stuck in the middle. Gen 4 for me was a very mixed bag all around. Team Galactic had so much potential what with them having their goals set the highest of any villain team, ie destroying the universe and turning Cyrus into a soulless god, but outside of Cyrus and Mars, they're sort of fucking goofy. You'd expect these guys to have some sort of cult mentality or robotic mindset akin to brainwashing. Then again this also seemed to be a problem with even the Team Plasma grunts to a degree who were hardly dedicated to the actual cause of their team, but then again it sort of fits with Ghetsis' two faced intent. Team Flare was fucking retarded though on every level right up to their retarded boss.
This in a nutshell.
Giovanni is his dad iirc right? Haven't seen it in years.

Wait Pegasus and Jame's american VA also voiced splinter in 2k3... I cant believe I didnt know that. Was he also in Berserk as well because a lot of people who worked on the berserk dub were 4kids regulars. Anyways the best/worst part about the musical is that they actually fucking tried to make it good rather than a cheap cash in

Short Pokemon Masters Update:
James with his Weezing are now playable
Also, I wanted to share this exchange I had with Grimsley:

Sadly, no. I don't know when the Berserk dub was made, but he was literally hired on by 4KIDS to be Giovanni for the stage musical, but they loved him so much they kept him on the team as a regular, and Yu-Gi-Oh! was coming right around the corner.
4KIDS rarely cut corners in their productions. There's kind of a reason they went bankrupt eventually, they were too carefree about their finances, but they were attentive to quality (at least for their golden geese).

Maybe all the type trainers just do it for the aesthetic.
Some people could argue that was even part of the problem - that rather than translating things more literally, they had to rewrite and re-edit things people in hindsight vastly prefer untouched.

Bewear: Can snap full-grown trees in half with a backhanded swing. Has been known to crush human spines on accident. Greatly feared for its immense strength.

Ursaring: Random regular ol' bear who's lore is almost entirely just about finding food.

My guess is that it's because Bewear is just less intelligent and more hot-tempered than Ursaring

I know we don't usually discuss the TCG but is anyone else looking forward to the release of the Champion's Path premium set tomorrow? I have a feeling tracking down products for it due to it having two different Charizard cards in its list of secret rares.
No? Okay then...

I was going to say something about recent worldbuilders having to be held to entries that a much less experienced team bullshitted out - and were already mocked for their goofiness - but then I actually read the Ursaring dex entries.Bewear: Can snap full-grown trees in half with a backhanded swing.

Leafgreen: "Although it is a good climber, it prefers to snap stout trees with its forelegs and eat fallen Berries."
So what the fuck are you talking about? Putting aside any vagueness of Attack != Strength, that's totally a comparable level of power. The difference could be argued as differences in temperament, build (Ursaring having better claws/teeth) etc.
You came here to complain about dex entries not making sense and managed to pick one of the few pairs of pokemon that are reasonably consistent with each other.

I don’t know much about pokemon tcg but that shit is pretty popular in a country that I currently reside in.

"It glides through the battle regally, like shuffling a deck of cards."
What the fuck does that even mean?

I hop on the online TCG every once in a while. Pack codes are cheap since they tie everything to the physical TCG instead of selling cards directly. I wonder if Champion's Path will end up with any meta-defining cards like how Shining Legends had Zoroark-GX last gen.

I wish I could have enjoyed Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire more, but they have too much of the Gen 6 crud on them to be likable. There are a lot, but making Mauville a "hub" city with weird camera angles like Lumiose stood out to me because it was absolutely unnecessary. I really dislike Gen 6, even the Mega Evolutions which are regarded as the best generational battle gimmick. They also did the whole handing out random legendaries like candy thing which I don't care for, but is probably considered a genwunner/nostalgiafag thing to hate. At that point I think I realized Pokemon was getting bad and it wasn't going to improve.

Eh, New Mauville was kind of hinted at in the original game. Only problem is that you still have to go inside the ruins to turn off a generator in ORAS.

Unless they're notably fucked up, PokéDex entries aren't as well-known among the fans. Some folks I guess are just too lazy to hop on Bulbapedia for a look.
Didn't that happen in Emerald, too, or no?

I need to look into it, I only had Ruby.
Edit: Yeah, it's exactly the same throughout all the GBA games.
