I don't really think it's the game that tries to send that message as much as the anime does, although both are responsible. Either way, the problem is that to the perspective of the characters in the game and the anime, these are actual creatures with their own personalities. To us, the people...

Would you horribly mind offering a link to a place where these definitions are readily available? I looked around a little, but couldn't really find anything. Besides, I'm kind of enjoying myself here. I find it fun, strange as that may be, to try to define words and concepts that are...

I wondered why the brackets were there, but now it makes sense. Okay, well, then... [Special] Defense - The stats of a Pokemon that represent its ability to resist attacks. And with that, I'll also offer this definition of "attacks", since I no longer need to worry about differentiating...

Alright, well, like a few others I've seen here, this is my first post. I have been hanging around, reading some of the threads and strategy articles, for a little while though. Anyway, Why I got into Pokémon: Well, I've been a huge Nintendo fan since I first got an N64 and Super Mario 64...
