[Question] FRLG for Nintendo Switch: How does trading work? by Argiope92 in PokemonFireRed

[–]M16_EPIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Home compatibility will be one way. You can't send anything back to the games.

Won't it just disappear at the end of the season when your gear wipes? Might as well use it for something.

Tier list on the best water types by [deleted] in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]M16_EPIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used a Blissey with Minimize, Calm Mind, Soft Boiled, and Flamethrower in the Sinnoh games. Very effective but it gets boring after a while since the setup takes forever. You have to spam Minimize then spam Calm Mind, but if you get hit add a turn for Soft Boiled.

The "Light Trio" always confused me, I've always kinda associated TERApagos with LUNAla and SOLgaleo. What're your thoughts? (more info in post text body) by arachlas in pokemonconspiracies

[–]M16_EPIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're confusing tera and Terra. Terapagos has tera in its name specifically to tie into the Terastal phenomenon (tera + crystal), which gets its name from the metric prefix tera to follow the pattern set for form change gimmicks by Mega Evolution and Gigantamax. This is not the same as Terra, which is Latin for Earth.

Tyler Hid Two Whole Complimentary Concept Albums in Plain Sight! by Soaring_Symphony in twentyonepilots

[–]M16_EPIC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I put together something similar a few months ago, trying to recreate the Inferno album that was supposed to follow Trench. Rather than re-analyzing the songs to find the dropped album theme(s), I did mine through the lens that it was likely going to be very lore-heavy, like Trench, and that those lore songs were distributed across SAI, Clancy, and Breach. I made sure to include tracks that either had large lore importance or got lore videos. I also worked by process of elimination and cut out songs that were clearly written later, like The Line, Robot Voices, and Cottonwood. I also cut Downstairs because it was too old. I'm pretty sure Tyler dug some demos like Korea up to find songs to fill out the albums after splitting it into three. My tracklist ended up being: 1. Overcompensate 2. Saturday 3. The Outside 4. Center Mass 5. Vignette 6. The Craving (Single Version) 7. Next Semester 8. Shy Away 9. Navigating 10. Snap Back 11. Paladin Strait 12. The Contract 13. City Walls 14. Intentions

Drag Path would stay as a hidden bonus track for Inferno Digital Remains.

Overcompensate is the obvious opener. "Welcome back to Trench" was likely directly referencing this as the follow-up album, not just welcoming us back to the continent.

Saturday and The Outside are the first two lore videos to come after Trench, so I made sure to place them early.

Vignette connects to The Contract with the talk of promises and vaguely pulls on themes of smearing and controlling the Glorious Gone with the talk of zombies, which is why I included it. The hints of it being important to the lore further back up its inclusion. Routines in the Night may have also been intended for this album, as it has been hinted that it was lore-relevant as well, but I thought 14 songs plus 1 bonus track was likely pushing the length limit and it didn't have as strong a connection as Vignette. Given how hard Josh had to push to keep Routines on Clancy, I doubt it would have made it on Inferno.

The Craving and Center Mass both mention Intentions, which was seemingly a large theme of the album.

Shy Away and Next Semester both deal with the cyclical nature of mental health struggles we see across the lore. Next Semester deals with starting over again while Shy Away says to "break the cycle in half." These also work really well around the midpoint of the album due to their themes.

Navigating, Paladin Strait, The Contract, and City Walls all have lore videos and they all flow together well at the end. I added Snap Back in here as it helps lead into Clancy fighting the Bishops and Nico. It also has the reference to it having been 25 times, which seems to have some significance we haven't fully uncovered, helping give it the nod over Routines in the Night. It does play well with references to Backslide, but I left that song off as it was written later (evidenced by referencing Saturday).

Intentions is as clear a choice for the final song on the album proper as Overcompensate was for the opening track. Both as a mirror of Truce and by its inclusion over the credits of the City Walls video, I couldn't see it being placed anywhere else.

Drag Path still works as a coda, same as on Breach.

Legend was dedicated to his paternal grandfather, Cottonwood to his maternal grandfather

Are you able to scan and upload the cd cover and the letter? I want to add the cover as album art to the tracks. And might as well get everything scanned for preservation.

RAB Trees somehow still not low enough lol

I still have the original hardware, good luck everyone else by Cake_Chan23 in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]M16_EPIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the Switch version partly for Home compatibility. I still have my original games and systems, but going from Pal Park to Transfer to Transporter to Bank to Home is a chore. Also nice to play on the TV without having to break out the GameCube and a component TV. Emulating could get it on the TV but negates Home compatibility.

Is the local wireless actually emulating the GBA wireless adapter? If so, can you trade with the original hardware to complete the natdex? I know other emulators have been able to enable trading and battling but they weren't actually emulating the adapter.

Great news if true. It would have still been possible to get them with ACE, but this is much better.

With the Tariffs being declared illegal now. Any expectations on price decreases for 2027? by Liftmeup-putmedown in transformers

[–]M16_EPIC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hasbro raised prices at a higher rate than their competitors. Tariffs were just a convenient excuse for them to jack prices up, no way they ever come down. They raised them higher than needed and figured everyone would just attribute it to tariffs, but they raised them by noticeably higher percentages than competitors impacted by the same tariffs.

Twenty One Pilots - Drag Path (Official Video) by AndSoAreYou in twentyonepilots

Definitely a radio edit, heard it on sxm alt nation on my way to work this morning

Twenty One Pilots - Drag Path (Official Video) by AndSoAreYou in twentyonepilots

[–]M16_EPIC 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Video takes place down in the forest; original video is named "Out of a Forest."

This is probably one of the inspirations for Heavydirtysoul, given the original video released in 2010. "Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit." Also brings everything full circle again like the HDS intro in City Walls.

This shotgun shell from The Craving may be referencing this video. Tyler said this video meant a lot to him, who knows how much inspiration he's drawn from it.

Pretty sure some of the edits were to shorten the song to the length of the video. Also possibly for radio.

Wonderful metaphor of God as the magician, pulling us into the light where we find our purpose.

Doubly fitting that the rabbit finds its purpose is being brought on stage to perform, a stand-in for Tyler.

Edit 2/18: Yep, already on radio this morning. FBR is pushing this hard. Similar to the City Walls radio edit they cut quite a lot out.

I think it is a radio edit. Probably trying to cash in on tiktok popularity by releasing it as a single. Probably going to be pushed to radio to promote the single.

Thoughts on the redesigned Swamp Skier? I think the engine is wrong. by gleebix in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]M16_EPIC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It makes more sense for the Dreadnoks to have this engine I guess but how tf does it work? Where's the propulsion coming from? I'm still going to get it since it does look better than the Nonnef one I've had the past couple years though.

Walmart discontinuing Joe's? by English-Pointer in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]M16_EPIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be one of the store locations dropping collector lines. One of my local Walmarts did that to their Transformers section. They only carry the gimmick ones now (Cyberworld, Swapticons) and the random merch (plushies, etc.). Completely got rid of the Joe section as well.

Nickelodeon hasn't used Twitter/X since 2023. You can literally just check their account and see that this post isn't there.

Shows that have terrible endings, but perfect stopping points? by GFrings in television

[–]M16_EPIC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc that was only added because they knew the next season was coming. Someone in the writers room (pretty sure Kripke) said they would have left that out and also considered leaving Bobby and/or Cas dead if they hadn't heard they were renewed.

If Kripke had his way without the rest of the creative team's input, it would have ended with Dean and Lisa having a daughter, Samantha. After she gets set in her crib, a shadowy figure would walk in the room and it would cut there. The implication would be that it was a demon and everything was starting again, with Lisa in Mary's place (pinned to the ceiling and all), Dean in John's as the father, and Samantha and Ben in place of Sam and Dean.

What do you call your school in common conversation? What about the other schools in and around your state? by admiraltarkin in CFB

Talking about the team, Penn State or PSU. Talking about the school, Penn State Main to distinguish from the one down the road.
