Yes, they're still accessible. If you generate the fifth-generation image for your birthday, you can get the fourth-generation equivalent by replacing zodiacimg.aspx in the URL with imagetest.aspx; if the day has multiple Pokémon, you can also add &pokemon=1, &pokemon=2, etc. to the URL to get the alternatives.

Are the pictures for the fourth-generation zodiac still accessible, or not?

Actually, the Encyclopedia Dramatica article was written by a bunch of users from my forums who thought it would be funny. Most wrote the bits on themselves or their close friends; the bits about me were written by my boyfriend (at the time). Please don't touch it; at the time they got kind of pissed ED was being used for a group of bored kids' personal amusement and spent a couple of days afterwards spamming my error report form. I'd rather not have that happen again.



(…though then at some point I think the page was vandalized by an actual banned member who removed the best joke on the page (the picture of me being this hilarious viking picture Fluffy dug up somewhere). I think the one about my real-life nickname being Richard Nixon the Burly is still there, blessingly.)

Well, you do all act like you are better and smarter than everybody. TCod is like the runty little brother of the Big Three pokemon communities.

Encyclopedia Dramatica's opinions are not meant to be taken to heart. They are just funny satirical opinions. I go there all the time and look up things I like. Just laugh.

Encyclopedia Dramatica hates everyone, Doduoman. Don't worry about it.

Thank you! That is quite possibly the most insanely helpful thing I have seen ever. Excellent… *arches fingers*

Yeah, you can't use wildcards. I actually used a special extension of the List Generator to make the batch files to rename my own sprites - here. It can generate all the lines you need for all Pokémon with forms if you choose to generate forms.

Squornshellous Beta

Yup, done that.



On occasion it does work, but then when I try to use it to rename, say, '201-*.png' to 'unown-*.png' it doesn't. Is it just that it can't use the wildcard in the results?

Is your command line working from the right directory? You need to cd your way into the folder with the sprites before you run the batch file, unless the batch file contains the full paths to all the files.

Hey Butterfree. How do you get the batch file to rename files? All my attempts produce errors. Namely 'the syntax of the command is incorrect' or 'the system cannot find the file specified'. The internet has had nothing to offer.



Why do I get the feeling I've asked before? Deja vue, I guess.

I think it's more that those are the most obvious types for a scorpion Pokémon. :P Now, if they made a Normal/Steel horse-cat-dog-Absol-thing, that would make me wonder.

I was just looking for a possible new sinnoh team when a I realized that Game Freak made a Poison/Bug scorpion that evolves into a Poison/Dark type scorpian. I really do think you're Satoshi Tajiri in disguise.

It's not exactly that I go through grouping permutations; it's more that I arrange the reigns and then go through the Pokémon one by one, placing them in whichever reign seems to fit best. If that reign is already full, I'll consider which of the Pokémon already there could most viably be moved and do so, possibly sparking a chain reaction of moving Pokémon from one reign to another. Then when I've gone through the whole list I go over it again, making last-minute switches to get the most solid whole picture I can.

How many Pokémon grouping permutations do you have to come up with before you get to one that fits the zodiac model?

Well, I got Victini, and I'm extremely good at the Pokemon Musicals when I use her (I called her 'Victorian'), but the game skips levels too fast for me, so I can only doo gym matches with my starter, Bacon the Tepig.

I don't know - the entire games seemed extremely easy to me.



Then, I suppose I did struggle with Caitlin's Gothilelle and Ghetsis..



And, no, I wasn't doing a solo four. I was doing a… Quartet run?

Shadow Techie

…..I hope I'm not the only one thinking that that was a drastic change of heart, in a very short amount of time….



Anyways, hows tricks with black/white, anyone? I personally think that the Elite four have an even bigger strength difference than the two previous generations.
