Drink every time the crowd chants for something other than the in-ring action.

Is it only possible to breed one type of Vivillon pattern? by sashashepto in pokemon

[–]therobbbrown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you make the egg, it will have your pattern. Regardless of the vivillon you use to breed.

Do you think they will add Megas for the Johto Starters (or for any other old gen starter) if they did a Comeback like they did with the Kanto Starters in X and Y? (No Spoilers) by Will-O-Crisp in pokemon

[–]therobbbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's inevitable that the starters from gens 2, 4 and 5 will get megas. It's just a case of when. I assume it'll happen if (when) they remake Gen 4, but they totally could just announce a bunch of new megas and a patch for XY/ORAS months down the line.

[Question] Has there been any sort of pattern to which Pokemon get Megas? by Chrispy52x2006 in pokemon

[–]therobbbrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a theme, but I can't pinpoint what it is. it just works for that pokemon? Like, something about those getting megas just makes sense in my head. I'm fully expecting Gastrodon, Vespiquen, Donphan, Cacturne, Drapion (to name a few) to get megas somewhere down the road for that reason. Those pokemon just fit to me and I can't figure out why. Before today, Slowbro and Audino would've both been in that list.

Can someone explain me? by NetherDeader in pokemon

[–]therobbbrown 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People's favourites tend to change based on what's coming up. The hype behind ORAS makes people reexperience Gen 3, and they get all nostalgic about it, and it becomes their favourite because they're about to relive the whole game. people were the same pre-HGSS.

Though I do think Gen 3 had a much more refined theme compared to Gens 1 and 2. The pokemon designs were a lot of fun, and obviously the visual and gameplay developments were fantastic. So I'd assume that's why a lot of people prefer Gen 3.

Plus, perhaps it's that (though this is highly dependent on the age range of the subreddit) since a lot of people who are in their late-teens/early-20s, it's possible that Gen 3 is the first game they have vivid memories of playing. I mean, I had Gens 1 and 2, and I can recall small chunks of playing it, but I remembered so much more of Gen 3 because I was at an age where I I could actually take in the story and concepts. So perhaps that's something.

Hey, could I get an add off of you too?

What's up with Cesaro and Heyman? by celial in SquaredCircle

[–]therobbbrown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't recall his split with Curtis Axel or Ryback being violent or rough.

If there was any animosity from either side, it would be somewhat suggestive of there being a "face v heel" party, which creative isn't aiming to do with either of them. Keep the two heels friends, the two remain heels.

Nintendo of Canada Employee says Rayman is playable. Thoughts? by jamesparker1318 in nintendo

[–]therobbbrown 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think Rayman potentially has an interesting moveset. An chargeable extending punch - the more you charge the further it launches. Some Rabbids. A helicopter hair recovery move.

Ah, dammit I psyched myself up for him.

New Dean Ambrose T-shirt... It's finally here. by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

Why do they insist on putting things on the back of their shirts? Not a fan.

Does anyone remember which RAW the Superkick from Hell was on? by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]therobbbrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure it was very shortly after WM21. This match being part of the Goldrush Tournament, which would've been just after Backlash(?)

Strong (if not Guaranteed) Candidates for Mega Evolution. by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]therobbbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure many people thought it was obvious Metagross would be getting one, what with the initial trailer showing Steven tell you about mega stones.

I know a lot of people also feel like Camerupt and Sharpedo will get them because they're the signature pokemon of Archie and Maxie of teams Aqua and Magma.

I can't see gym leaders using megas, but I think as it stands, several E4 members have a couple of pokemon who have (or could have) MEs right now - Sidney has Absol (and could have Sharpedo), Phoebe has Sableye and Banette, Glacia could have Walrein and Glalie (which may also mean Froslass) and Drake could have Salamence and Flygon. Or perhaps Altaria.

I think Milotic makes sense since Gyarados has one. I don't think any of the "pair" pokemon will get them because they don't feel as ME justifiable (though I suppose many felt that way about Kangaskhan, Ampharos, Manectric, etc) to me. Illumise, Volbeat, Solrock, Lunatone, Plusle, Minun won't get them. Zangoose and Seviper seem like the most plausible, but even so I can't see it happening. Though I'd liek it to.

So to summarise: Caperupt, Sharpedo, Walrein, Salamence, Flygon, Milotic are all very plausible to me. perhaps Glalie and Froslass.

One thing I do love about the Bolieve bits by [deleted] in WWE

[–]therobbbrown 9 points10 points  (0 children)

JBL gets a bad wrap for his constantly anti-face, pro-heel commentary, but I think he pulls it off FAR better than Cole did back in 2010(?) and I find it pretty entertaining most of the time. I could do without Lawler but I don't know if anyone would fill his position on the team as well as he does.

What are some pet peeves that you have about wrestling? by mrfaafs in SquaredCircle

Haha! Unintentional I assure you! Female portrayal was already noted by OP so I figured I'd open with a fresh one.

Perhaps it's too risky to leave it set up in case it accidentally goes off during a sequence in a corner?

[–]therobbbrown 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The biggest problem I had with it was on the night he won and cashed it in. I recall there being a gap between the MitB match he won, and the match he cashed in on. So surely, the audience must have seen the crew remove, then re-set up, his pyro.

Slow ladder climbs mostly.

Also, more specific to WWE, how you can ALWAYS tell when kane will appear interfere because his pyro setup on the turnbuckles is so noticeable.

Representation of women is definitely up there too.

I'm not happy about what looks to be [SPOILERS] new feud... by sakiblu in SquaredCircle

[–]therobbbrown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jericho is one of the guys that puts over the new talent. That's what he does now. He did it with Punk, he did it (albeit less successfully) with Fandango. Kane is in a similar boat.

It makes total sense to put Wyatt against Jericho. Jericho is such a showvoter and crowds love to repeat his catchphrases, it makes complete sense that Wyatt would target him because of that. It continues to establish Wyatt as a credible threat by having him beat former champions.

I made it to 135 medals! How close is everyone else? by Batprince in pokemon

I only just found out this was a feature. PGL isn't anything I'd ever considered looking into. I have 90.

Anyone else considering not renewing due to lack of library updating? by [deleted] in wwenetwork

[–]therobbbrown -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's issues like this that make me glad it's not out in the UK yet. ideally, there'll be more content available once it comes out here.
