Happy new year! Honestly feels like you got so much done in 2024, with the roulette, the jolteon article, GHD, Morphic rewrite and cowboys???? I hope it was a happy year as well as a productive one!

Here's to 2025!

It's been over twenty years since I, as a ten-year-old, was randomly browsing Pokémon sites, many of which mentioned TCoD, and thinking: "I'll click on it and see what the big deal is about this whole Cave of Dragonflies thing". I immediately loved it and to this day it's my favorite fansite. So glad it's still around, even though the other sites I loved, Mew's Hangout, Suta-Raito, Mewtwofan's Pokémon Page, etc. are mostly all gone now. Ten-year-old me would be horrified by the state of the Internet (what do you MEAN most people don't use forums anymore???) but would at least be happy my favorite website survived. Happy New Year, and I hope TCoD lasts as long as possible.

The location charts show the actual encounter slots and don't consolidate them in any way. If there's a 70% slot and a 30% slot, and they both happen to contain level 5 Magikarp, then it'll still show that there are two slots that both contain level 5 Magikarp! I did this intentionally, because I like it to be transparent when there are in fact two slots.

I was just looking at the Gen 3 locations chart for Area 2 of the Safari Zone, and saw that there are 2 identical listings for fishing with an Old Rod for Magikarp, level 5. The chart says 70% of the time you'll get a Level 5 Magikarp, and the other 30% of the time you'll get a … Level 5 Magikarp. This seems redundant.

Magikarp can learn Hydro Pump with the help of TR03 in Pokemon Sword and Shield :)

Of Njáls saga? It's a thread on the Thousand Roads Discord, which is unfortunately not the most accessible. Maybe this link works, if you have a Discord account.

I am still also hoping to write a lengthy Tumblr essay about it, which would be a bit easier to access, but I got too distracted by cowboys in the middle of that one and haven't had the chance to pick it up again yet. It's next up, though! I have basically wrapped up my The Good, the Bad and the Ugly fanfic!

Well I've found it. You need to go to Melemele Island's southwest corner with a team full of Fairy-types. Then you need to go six steps north, six steps east, six steps south and six steps west, and then go to the northeast corner of Ula'ula Island, and voila! There it is!

Yeah, right. I've been playing Sun for years now, and I've never found this area. Plus you're name is so generic it just confirmes that you're lying immediately. (If my grammar is wrong, sorry. I am German, you know.)

Oh. I'm not THAT much into Pokémon, so I hope you understand.

In Sun and Moon, there's an area full of Beauties, and they have uhh… pretty weird dialogue if you talk to them as a boy.

@Ash: What do you mean by that? Each downloadable file is a zip archive (collection of lots of files), which you need to extract on your computer; when you have extracted them into a folder, then there will be many sprites inside. If there's one that's weird for some reason, tell me which one.

Both of those effects are just the same effects that apply for Rain Dance.

These are awesome. Thunderstorm is avfully specific though. "Thunder has Swift-accuracy"? "Solarbeam deals half damage"? COME ON!

This was my favorite site as a kid and when I was bored on the computers at school I was so fast to type in this URL. I'm glad this site is still updated.

Let's Go is BAD. Sword+Shield aren't much better. Legends:Arceus? WAIT WHAT? REAL-TIME BATTLES? TRASH. Scarlet+Violet? Insanely good.
