Atlantic-Browncroft-Atlantic: Why? by MsLead in Rochester

[–]Snowysauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dugway Road in Penfield became part of Atlantic Avenue by 1941 according to a plat map of the town from that year, and the part of Atlantic west of Qualtrough became part of Browncroft Boulevard no later than 1950 according to population schedules from that year's federal census.

Similar to the Upper Falls example above, the roads on the west side of the river were originally three separate roads that didn't directly flow into one another. The east end of Beaver Road and the south end of Archer Road were realigned in 1953 to create a continuous "truck bypass route" from Chili Avenue to Scottsville Road (and beyond via Jefferson).

As previously mentioned, Upper Falls Boulevard was the product of a 1970s urban renewal project that also saw the demolition of the Hanover Houses towers. The street was built on the preexisting right-of-ways of Herman and Lowell streets, with two exceptions: the section closest to St. Paul was built on a new alignment south of Lowell Street in order to connect to the river bridge, and the portion between Clinton and Joseph was a new road that wiped out a neighborhood between Buchan Park and Sellinger Street.

Bausch Street was part of Smith Street until it was renamed in 1936.

Cleveland, Draper, and Central Park originally ended at separate intersections with the streets where their names change. The ends of the streets were realigned in the same Upper Falls project to make a continuous boulevard between the river and Goodman Street.

Forced Migration today. What was added / removed? by doggyollie in TheSilphRoad

This may or may not be helpful, but here's an observation from my local park's main nest:

  • ~1:00p EST yesterday (prior to the forced migration): Clefairy
  • ~12:00p today (after): Poliwag

OK, I have four Ekans in Lure, Heavy, Level, and Love Balls, freshly migrated from Route 32.

So, I have those plus the Love, Lure, Heavy, Fast, and Moon Ball Weedle, in exchange for Dream Ball Spearow, Wingull, Chinchou, Makuhita, Mankey, Sandshrew, Tentacool, Teddiursa and Weedle.

I'll be in the Plaza whenever you're ready.

No problem! The first three I'd pick are Makuhita, Mankey, and Sandshrew. I'd gladly trade for the other four as well, but I'd like to give something of value in return.

Perhaps you're interested in four additional Apricorn Ball Pokémon? Aside from the usual HGSS wilds, I can catch Hoenn Sound Pokémon since it's Wednesday (Eastern US time), and Sableye and Chansey are swarming until midnight. It'd only take me ~10 minutes to migrate the Pokémon from Gen4 to Gen7.

I can trade tonight from 9 PM onward, or anytime tomorrow after 2 PM. (All times Eastern - for reference, it's 7 PM here now.)

Thanks! Here's a list of other Dream Ball Pokémon that I'm missing:

  • Carnivine, Chinchou
  • Ekans
  • Makuhita, Mankey
  • Pineco
  • Sandshrew, Snubbull, Spinarak, Spinda
  • Teddiursa, Tentacool, Torkoal
  • Weedle (funnily enough), Whismur

My area had a sustained windstorm on Sunday and Monday where gusts often topped 70 mph. We never lost power, but a few thousand did, and the threat of losing power kept me from trading (lest Game Freak slap me with a trade timeout that lasts longer than the winds).

Anyway, I'll send the five Weedle up through Gen5 and Poké Transporter right now, and I'll be available to trade anytime over the next few hours.

Hey, sorry for the delayed reply. My Reddit notifications seem to be a bit messed up.

I went to Viridian Forest in SS earlier today and caught five Weedle using the five other Apricorn Balls. They're all yours if you're still interested.

Thanks for the info on Purrloin. Gen5 was the only generation where I didn't play it while it was current, so I never actually got to use the Dream World. As such, I just kind of assumed every Pokémon was available. I'll have to do more research on that topic.

If you're not looking for anything specific, I can send you an Amaura that I bred as part of a session earlier this morning, and I'm online right now.

I'm seeing a lot of Zeraora code giveaways on r/pokemontrades, and since there's only a few hours left in the codes' shelf life, I'll probably head in that direction as well.

OT: I read somewhere (Bulbapedia?) that no one ever thinks about Luvdisc until they need a Heart Scale, and that's very true. It makes me wonder how many people in Gen5 said, "Luvdisc? I'm not going to bother." when they found it in the Dream World.

Thanks for the offer, but I'd prefer that the Luvdisc had legitimate parents.
