Hey, Butterfree! I just randomly noticed a cached page on your site from… eh, 2009 or so. And, you probably don't remember me, unless you remember Stareon's Hideout that I used to actively update. Anyway, I saw that someone named ShinyRiolu was causing some trouble with you. I helped her make a site a long time ago, but I don't think she ever did do anything with it. But, I just wanted to make it clear that I never hated you or your site, and although I made a layout for Shiny, I take no responsibility for her stealing pictures. I tried to teach her about plagiarism, and I think in her case, anything that happened with that was an honest mistake of hers. Anyhow, I haven't really been online for a long, long time now–just because of personal issues and whatnot–but I still do really honor and respect you and the Cave of Dragonflies. The only reason I'm back online right now is I'm trying to open up my fanfic site again, which is actually pretty pathetic right now. But, yeah, just wanted to clarify that I never said anything bad about you, have no hard feelings, once again, and I hope that it's cool that if we ever cross paths again in the future, perhaps we could work together or help each other out, or I don't know anything. I just don't like to have any enemies; that cached post just came up in a random search for something and I know it's really old, but I just wanted to make sure that we're cool. And… I wish you the best with whatever you are doing now. The fact that CoD is still open says a lot about you as a webmistress, and I admire that. I wish we could all be as determined as you. Have a great day! Best wishes!

You… have no idea how grateful I am for you making the featured section random again.



I was not sure what to do here, so I couldn't just pick a section.



Now, I can randomize again. It will pick a page for me.



And I get to see the Tancat picture as a bonus.



Thank you.



You deserve to be singled out for this great act.



Also, you get the highest award, the Golden Butterfree.

I was actually half-expecting Butterfree to fall out of the Pokeball dead or something. Not sure how it would work, but it's where I thought the story was going. Would have been a much more depressing ending. xD



Anyway, I really like what you did with it. You're very good at incorporating emotions into your work without feeling cliched or cheesy.

There should be a name for this phenomenon - the phenomenon of "early-game Pokémon that get definitively less useful over the course of the game". Or not even just Pokémon; any similar effects in video games. Like Disc One Nuke except the nuke isn't actually necessarily strong enough to be considered a full-blown nuke. My Beautifly and Dustox are undergoing this now as I approach Flannery in my Emerald Nuzlocke. I hereby call it Butterfree Syndrome.

Must have missed it. Being a fast reader is awesome, but it's a curse sometimes.

The corresponding phrase is in the paragraph above the example - "Now we have the first version of our Aerobuzz, the way some spriters would leave it".

I discovered an error. Originally, the guide said something to the effect of "some spriters would just leave it like this", and then the phrase "But we're not just some spriters." After editing, the first phrase is edited out but the second remains.

Wow. Just… Just wow. I came here to kill time and wait for busy server to go away, and I'm rewarded with this. I don't even know what to say.

So I'll say it again.



Wow.

I have plenty of Butterfree in the Hall of Fame. I've only ever ditched one Butterfree in my life; I've had Butterfree happily in my final team on Gold, FireRed, Diamond, SoulSilver and Black, and possibly more. :P Like I said, the fic is not autobiographical.

POOR BUTTERFREE



CAN I MAKE A FAKE HALL OF FAME WITH BUTTERFREE



PLZ



YOU EXCLUDE YOUR FAVORITE POKEMON FROM THE HALL OF FAME

Wow..the Guestbook looks so pretty in Celebi style!

*Amazed*

It just now occured to me that the Guestbook changes too, when you switch styles.

Hm, I suppose I interpreted your rowling-adage as an angry one. My apologies then.



I think there might be some kind of psychological effects to it merely because you are practically teleporting the pokemon to the future - They go into the box, and come out, not realizing that months or years have passed. It might have an effect when they try to understand what has happened. :V

I think you misunderstood me somewhere. I did not take it as "telling me off", nor did I defend it on the basis that it's "just a story"; I was mainly pointing out that while you said the box was very different "for you" from the way it is "for me", it isn't really like this "for me", because I might just as well write another fic tomorrow where it works completely differently.



Not that I really see how this kind of box is inherently inhumane when you aren't leaving the Pokémon on there for years. They don't have a real sense of time in there, so they'd just experience it kind of like going to sleep and then waking up a bit later. There's no reason that should automatically have some ill effects on the mind or body, unless you were to specifically decide to add this to the interpretation.

Hum, I didn't mean to sound like I was telling you off for having a box system like that. It is just crushing to think that pokemon would be treated so inhumanely with scarce a thought to it.



What would suspended animation do to a psyche and body, and could this technology be developed to dispose of troublesome humans.





Yes I know it's 'just a story'. :/

Great, great story. You really get the emotions across. I felt a bit sad reading it - it was that kind of story.

I wish the trainer wouldn't be so indecisive and just accept that her Butterfree is happy again, but I guess I'd feel different if I was that trainer. Oh well. Anyway, great work Butterfree =D

So what's with this weird sprite for Wormadam in the sprite generator? (It's the HGSS shiny sprite.) Is it some sort of funky beta sprite or what? Also, that for of Wormadam is missing the second animation frame for both normal and shiny.
