Kidney stone. The nurse (a woman! I would not have made that comparison!) compared it to giving birth.

This has absolutely wrecked me. Her, Veronica Taylor, Eric Stuart, and (outside of Pokemon) Tiffany Grant *were* anime for me growing up. Even though I've never known the actual person, this feels like losing a big sister. I'm devastated. I've started a new morning tradition of watching an...

The news about Rachael Lillis has me absolutely shaken. She's only a few years older than I am; she was bringing Pokemon to life with her voice while I was a kid enjoying it. Her, Veronica Taylor (Ash), and Tiffany Grant (many anime) basically *were* anime for me, growing up.

In terms of just pure realistic train simulation, how does Trainz stack up against Dovetail's stuff (Train Simulator...I guess it's called classic now? And Train Sim World 4)? I mostly know Dovetail from them taking over ownership of Microsoft Flight Simulator X.

Finally got a name of what I've been dealing with for just over 16 years now: chronophobia. Supposedly more common in prisoners (which I'm not) and people nearing the end of their life (which, hopefully, I am not). But can hit anyone. Unfortunately, it is a physical impossibility to avoid the...

Rillaboom is weak without choice band. Drum beating is even weaker. You want choice band, and you want wood hammer. You'll become a better player if you learn how to properly use these, as well.

Good job Salazzle you did it, top 100. Thanks recent bans! edit: Recent bans let me put Stealth Rock over Block on Garganacl, and Ice Spinner over Stealth Rock on Tusk.

Isn't this just an extension of fanfiction?

I specifically didn't put a name link on this because I'm not trying to call this person out, and I explicitly don't want to strawman them. I have seen this "stolen" wording a lot, and I think a lot of the people who use it have some very incompatible opinions about fanart featuring copyrighted...

Anyone who thinks that current AI art is limited to hyperrealistic and heavily lit stuff needs to change the prompt. That's what you're seeing as examples of AI art because that's what popular and people are uncreative. Ironically, just like a mass-market artistic trend.

Hahaha, I somehow broke 1700 with this as-is, reaching 1708. A new post-DLC high. edit: 1766 now, lol.

Totally fine to can Cress. It's got a lot of problems. I'd love to find something that can set up on other set-upers like Cress could do if possible, but Cress itself is just too hard to work with nowadays.

Every Gliscor I've run across in the last 20 games I've killed with Garg. It takes a while but as long as Gliscor doesn't have Swords Dance it completely kills it. Takes about 5 recover PP if you don't tera, and about 13 salt cure PP. It can't trap and kill Swords Dance set (but I haven't seen...
