Earlier, they somehow managed to glue these awful Afro wigs on every single one of my bull Pokemon. I've spent the entire day shaving them in order to maintain their few remaining shreds of dignity. What chances do they have of finding suitable Miltanks now?

So, if the germs losing the flu battle against my immune system can read this, I have one word for you: HA! ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/feeling-triumphant-56501/ Hell yeah. http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/hell-yeah-53955/ Thu, 15 Nov 2012 02:19:37 GMT Currently listening to music from the Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon games, and let me tell you, it's got me totally psyched for Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth.

What will the game be like? Will the storyline be as good as those from the currently-released games? And what type of terrifying dungeons await me inside my washing machine?

Man, has time flown by fast, but it's been one hell of a fun ride.

Pokemon has been my favourite series ever since I first watched the anime and played the original games way back in the year of 1999, but I've never really known anyone in real life or online who were as passionate about the amazing magical creatures as I am. I felt it was time to change this, and Bulbagarden looked like the perfect place for me.

I have not been disappointed. Bulbagarden's members are truly among the kindest people I have ever interacted with on the internet, and it's been an absolute blast speaking to you all.

Now for some shout-outs:

@$aturn¥oshi; The most awesome guy in the universe ever. If he were a Pokemon, he'd be an Arceus with Perfect IVs in all stats. He's so incredible, I can't think of anyone else to tag. He's overshadowed you all.

...Nah, just kidding, you're all awesome. Seriously, though, if I gave shout-outs and missed anyone, I'd feel really bad, so if you're reading this, thanks for making my time here such a joy, and here's to many more years of fun!

Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to play Pokemon White 2. : D ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/its-my-first-bulbaversary-53124/ Wanna know what my voice sounds like? Here you go. http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/wanna-know-what-my-voice-sounds-like-here-you-go-52850/ Mon, 08 Oct 2012 20:08:55 GMT I make a bunch of videos for YouTube, mostly video game-related stuff with text commentary. I stick to text because I can't stand hearing the sound of my awkward voice played back to me. It doesn't help that I have a poorly-developed set of teeth, (I'm 24, yet still have baby teeth!) with one tooth in particular touching my tongue every time I speak. I'm hoping to have it removed this week, though.

I have made a couple of voice-over videos, though, my favourite being this parody rant about the worst letter of the alphabet: U.

I've tried so many times, but the most wins in a row that I've had so far is around 21.

Considering how annoying even the Super Single and Super Double lines can be, I'm not surprised winning the Super Multi-Line 49 times isn't required for the trainer star, but I kinda want to get that darn trophy before I send all my Pokemon to Black 2 or White 2. ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/battle-subways-super-multi-line-47765/ Myself as a Pokemon http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/myself-pokemon-47124/ Sat, 12 May 2012 01:46:27 GMT Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon Blue says I'm a Machop, (Which indicates a tough personality, I think) PMD Darkness says I'm a Piplup, (Prideful) and PMD Sky says I'm a Phanpy, (Fun-loving) but I want to go a step further with this. These are the sort of stats I would expect a Pokemon based on me would have...

Type: Dark/Psychic
Ability: Insomnia

Pokedex: Typically very lazy. It has strong psychic powers, but spends more of its time honing its physical abilities. Its progress is slow as it can't resist unhealthy food and drink. Hates flies and wasps.

Guess it's all downhill from here. Apparently, people with grey hair will never go bald, but that's not much comfort to me.

Now, where's my walking frame and pipe? ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/begins-46162/ Today is my Half-Bulbaversary! http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/today-my-half-bulbaversary-45895/ Mon, 16 Apr 2012 14:24:20 GMT It's six months to the day since I signed up for Bulbagarden. Man, does time fly by when you're having fun. I joined this site because no-one I knew in real life is anywhere near as interested in Pokemon as I am, and I wanted to speak to others as passionate about my favourite series of all time as I am.

I haven't been disappointed. Now Pokemon feels like the dominant force in my life, which is exactly what I've always wanted! I have met so many friendly and interesting people, every day I can't wait to log on and see what everyone's talking about. It provides a very welcome relief from the often dramatic and upsetting drama from my life.

Thank you, Bulbagarden, and here's to many more years of fun. ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/today-my-half-bulbaversary-45895/ Top Ten Worst Pokemon http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/top-ten-worst-pokemon-45096/ Fri, 30 Mar 2012 22:15:36 GMT Please keep in mind that this is purely my opinion.

So there I was, sitting on the computer, browsing through Bulbagarden when suddenly I heard a noise on the bookshelf to my left. I turn to look and find myself staring at a fucking wasp!

I quickly ran to another room, and the wasp has seemingly disappeared as fast as it appeared, it could be hiding somewhere in this room as I type. How on earth do flying insects always manage to sneak their way inside the house without being noticed like this? Insect Ninja Academy?

UPDATE: My brother found the bastard on our dog's quilt and safely released it outside.

I only own the GameCube Collector's Edition version of Majora's Mask, which unfortunately has all sorts of glitches and bugs, the worst being a tendency to crash. Considering that you'll go long times without saving, this is a very, very bad thing.

Somehow, about seven years ago, I put up with this nonsense and had made it as finishing the Great Bay Temple. (Probably my least favourite dungeon in the entire series) I played the Song of Time to save the game and give myself ample time to find the 12 fairies scattered throughout the Temple and get the half damage upgrade. But just as I was about to collect the last two and claim my prize, the damn game had to pick that exact moment to crash. I was so annoyed, I haven't returned since, in case something equally as bad happens again.

I refuse to buy another version and begin another save file just so I can play through the last fourth of the game, but I really want to experience the horrors of the Ikana Canyon for myself, as I have heard many say it's the best part of the game. It had only crashed about twice up until that point, maybe I should risk it and play it again?

Gah. Video game glitches; far more terrifying than any zombie or moon could ever hope to be. ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/i-want-finish-legend-zelda-majoras-mask-but-im-frankly-terrified-44540/ <![CDATA[Getting nostalgic for Pokemon Black & White already]]> http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/getting-nostalgic-pokemon-black-white-already-42834/ Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:43:09 GMT As I type this out, I'm listening to the Cold Storage/Twist Mountain theme from Pokemon Black and White, and it's making me feel all nostalgic for a year ago, when I was eagerly awaiting the release of the games. There is nothing quite as exciting as the beginning of a new Pokemon generation.

*Sigh* Though I really want to relive the main adventure again, there's no way in hell I'm starting a New Game on my White version; that would send three generations of work down the toilet! I might ask for Pokemon Black for my upcoming birthday. I would also finally be able to get those pesky two trainer stars I'm missing and get the respect I deserve from the nurses in the centers, but buying practically the same game twice feels like a waste of money.

Gah, I don't know what to do... ]]> Bouffalant Herdier http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/blogs/55271/getting-nostalgic-pokemon-black-white-already-42834/
