Awesome ^_^
Will edit in thoughts after.
Loving the cover, who did that? (Thanks VKCA)
Edit time ^_^
You can tell Alch wrote the Spriting article.
I got a mention in the WSC article ^_^
Laughed at the questions in the CAP FAQ
THE NEXT PAGE LINK ON MOP'S MUSINGS LEADS TO THE IMAGE! NOT TO THE NEXT ARTICLE!

Congrats on the anniversary all!
I'm really suprised healbell bronzong wasn't mentioned in the "moves that pokemon should have but don't" article. Outside that though I really enjoyed the article.
My name has also changed since the ask the admins section, it doesn't really matter but fink doesn't exist on this site anymore (unless an admin wants to change my name back:naughty:)
I also really liked HellaHellaStyle's art.(the person who did the cover dogfish)

Someone already answered, but this page is a staple of each issue, since we <3 our contributors and want them recognised! ^_^
Great job everyone. This issue looks really good. I would just like to say that I messed up on the Power Rankings. I wrote it before the final pairings were officially posted and I got some of the matchups wrong. This won't happen in the future.
So do I get to have one of those cool artist badges, now?

Awesome art, especially the cover.
A good issue as always.
Keep up the hard work!

Just after shortly blabbing how awesome this whole thing is, I´d like to note that the article featuring Venusaur states that:
"Moltres is another great counter to Venusaur, being immune to Earthquake and possessing a 4x resistance to Grass. Moltres can then use the opportunity to Toxic stall, or just unleash one of its fearsome STAB attacks."
Should it be noted, that in case Venusaur stays in, its poison-type blocks the toxic? Overpredicting could easily be the case, but there´s always a chance...

Who keeps Venusaur in against Moltres lol.
Unless you know that you outspeed, in which case you STILL can't do anything to it unless you use Return.
The cover page was a sure sign this issue was going to be a good one. I particularly enjoyed Kevin Garrett's tournament analysis and the interview with Earthworm, and "cookie's Tips" was another personal favorite. I'm also interested in seeing what Phil and Scofield come up with for the OU Metagame Analysis, since technology has kept me out of that for the past few months. Definitely another quality release--well done, guys!
Another job well done. Thank you to all the people that put time and effort into this, I enjoy reading it immensely, as I am sure many others do as well.
Just as a small editorial, 2 pokemon with moves I think they should be able to learn are Quagsire with Stealth Rock and Lucario with Aura Storm (lol).
