The gen 1(and maybe all gens) capture mechanics page says you can capture a Pokèmon at 0 hp! Maybe you should add something to check the hp and if at 0, alert the user s(he) can't capture a Pokèmon that has 0 hp.

Presumably you mean TQftL?



I don't mind if you make a hack, so long as it's made clear wherever it may be posted that it's based on the fic. I'd prefer to be kept in the loop, though, and consulted for things like storyline streamlining, etc.

I've always been kind of iffy on including the manga in general Pokémon things because, put simply, talking about 'the' manga at all is misleading; there are a myriad different mangas, none of them really any more official than any of the others, most of which have never even been officially translated into English. It's kind of a similar principle to why the Games section ignores spin-off games in all its specific questions. There could be a section about Pokémon manga in general, I suppose, but it would be kind of hard to squeeze twenty questions out of it without going into specifics and thus arbitrarily favoring one manga over another.



Although the Pokémon Fan Test is generally old and silly and I should take it down or at least revamp it somehow anyway.

Just took the Pokémon Fan Test. Why doesn't it have a manga section? For some people, that's a really important part of being a 'Pokémon Fan'.

I've grown out of finding it cool to be annoyed with everything since I wrote the original FAQ. There's nothing wrong with rants, but there is when innocent readers who are actually doing the right thing by looking up their query in the FAQ are subjected to them in response to innocuous questions.



I don't want to sound like I mean business. I want to sound like a human being who doesn't delight in lecturing kids on how wrong they are about everything.

I have to say, I liked the old FAQ better, because it sounded like you meant BUSINESS.

Hm… Not gonna lie, I actually remember thinking that the old FAQ page seemed pretty harsh; I could see it scaring off some newer or younger readers. The tone of the new page is much calmer; it's nice that you went and revamped it c:

No. As I think I may have mentioned (probably in the "Ruler of the Universe thing") I have the worst laptop in THE DARN UNIVERSE!!!!!!!!! I can't even paste stuff into my address bar, which sucks. Anyway, sorry about the long response time, I can't access my email =P

That is your clue. Do you know how to view the source code of a page in your browser?



For most of the game you aren't going to really know what you're looking for, to be honest, so you shouldn't be expecting that.

Help! I'm playing Magikarp: The Gathering and I don't know what I'm looking for. I tried going back to the Magikarp: tG page and all it gave me was Hmm. You might want to look closer at this.

Hahaha holy snap, I didn't even realise (with an S!) how harsh the old faq was until now. It was awesome though. I mostly just love reading rants, as eeveefan mentions. But this faq probably serves its purpose much, much better, and won't scare off the poor noobs ('noobs' being a friendly moniker, that is). :3

My only regret is that future readers will never know the wonder of the two who irreverently suggested a sonic section \o/

It's nice that you revamped your FAQ. I was reading it about a week before the revamp, and a lot of the tone of the answers seemed very angry, such as the one where you talk about having sheep facts on a scarf. O,o;



The answers to your questions no longer look like chapters to a novel. xD I haven't read them yet, but I will soon. I always love reading FAQs.

Well, it does seem a lot less ranty, but I liked your ranty answer to the type triangle better XD



And completely off-topic, but I can't help but be amazed at people who guess your crossword clues. I feel like a bad Pokémon fan XD

Can you still have a page for the old FAQ and Contact Me? I liked them better.

Oh, and I see I'm still banned. Some things never change I guess, ah well I could be in worse situations. Hopefully one day I might get unbanned, or it could stay this way. Only Butterfree can tell[/psychic]

Hey all, just wanted to drop by and say…well…hi I guess. I've uploaded a new spriting video which I'm hoping you'll like (or in most cases, wonder why I've returned due to my inability to sprite well) and I wanted to know how the place is going.

Peace~

As a computer science graduate, I admire your fiddling, and fiddling with a buggy program is a lot more fun than with one that's hard to break open.
