Description A little late to the party, but since Keldo was the featured Pokemon for the 20th anniversary legendary distribution and a personal favorite I really wanted to do something with it. I apparently never found the time to draw something new throughout the month, so I ended up going back and digitally overhauling an ancient sketch.

The legs/underbelly all had to be traced in (I can NOT draw horse legs X_X) and I tweaked the flank and eyes a bit. Since the new legs lined up a bit different, I also had to trace in the lower part of the "collar" and the horn, since it ran off the page a bit in the original. I also TOTALLY missed that little patch of exposed fur IN the "collar" in the sketch....(Keep in mind, though, the original WAS done in, like, 30 minutes due to poor planning on my part with regards to when I worked.)

Original Sketch:


Pokemon and all of its creatures/characters, including Keldeo, are (c) Satoshi Tajiri, Nintendo, Game Freak and all other respective owners may have missed/not be aware of.

Too bad... did you manage to get ANY of them through out the year?

Actually... they HAVE done limited second chances" for a few of them, so if you keep your head up you MIGHT get lucky.

Some, yeah... Genesect... Manaphy... I can't remember the others...

As much as I love Pokemon, the fact they deliberately leave out certain legendary Pokemon from there games only to release them as limited timed gifts always pissed me off...

Well, in their defense.... they ARE legendary Pokemon.... they're SUPPOSED to be special and not-so-easy to get. Honestly, thanks to all of this WiFi stuff we have now I think it's WAY easier to get your hands on these Pokemon that before you could only get in special tournaments and such that might not even be in your state.

That's not the problem. The problem is that they should be like a tough event in game to get these Pokemon not "hey, you connected to wi-fi have a free legendary". Hell, Gen 4 had this a lesser version of this with Darkrai, Shaymin, and Arceaus (you'd get an item that unlocks their event) but even then they only released Darkrai and Shaymin's near the end of Gen 4 and never got around to releasing Arceus's! It should be something that the player has to work for like... after beating the game and completing a part of the Pokedex, the professor of the region will give you an item the unlocks an area contain a path to a powerful legendary.

I guess... but at the same time, you also kinda need the legendaries if you want to TRULY complete the PokeDex, so I think they'd just rather give as many people who are able the opportunity rather than disappoint/frustrate people by making it nearly impossible. And I mean, with the codes and WiFi and such there IS still a tiny bit of exclusivity to it. I mean... you seem annoyed because you missed your chance, so there is still a bit of prior knowledge needed for when these events take place.

Wait... what? ... Oh! By "...completing a part of the Pokedex..." I meant a percentage of the Pokedex, like after becoming Champion and completing 60% of one's Region Pokedex will unlock the abillity to find and capture on of the legendaries.
I'm annoyed because I've missed MANY chances! Heck until Omega Ruby I never had Deoyxs because I kept missing it's events!

I know what you meant, but I was referring to the PokeDex as a WHOLE, not percentage/regionally. If your goal is to truly complete the Pokemon (NATIONALLY) then you do eventually need to register the legendaires.
That's my point though: It's "too easy" yet you've still missed out multiple times, so there IS still a certain amount of knowing when/where the distributions are.

And if they did the idea I'm presenting then people WOULD get those Legendaries. And could get those legendaires many years later. The point is they are in the game and those willing to work for them in game will be able to get those without cheating.
I just find it stupid that I have to constantly pay attention to Pokemon News sites just to get something that should already be in the games. I don't have to deal with this with literally any other game! ... Okay DS games with DLC content like Dragon Quest 9 have a bit more of an excuse since I'm pretty sure no one foresaw the DS Wi-Fi being shutdown (or at least "being shutdown so soon") but it's still a shitty practice.

But that would also require a LOT of extra memory/space that the games might not have in order to program in all of these special post-story encounter you might not ever even be able to access if you don't know what to do. I mean, Sun/Moon seem to be pushing the limits as it is when even a fairly routine double battle seems to slow things down HORRIBLY. And to be fair, they ARE trying to be better about the time thing. Magearna's QC code is going to be active indefinitely so people wouldn't have to rush to finish the game.

True.... how about no dungeons but they redo a version of that "Sky Warp thing" that they did in ORAS? How one could a a number of other legendaries after certain points on certain days?
Besides if the rumours are correct the next Pokemon game will be on the "Nintendo Switch" which is suppose to be more powerful then the 3DS/2DS and the "New 3DS" so the whole "pushing the system to the limit" is kinda invalid for, at least, the next theoretically possible Pokemon game.
I'll give them that but how long until the "Special Event Munchlax" is gone forever?

I'm sorry, refresh my memory.... what exactly constitutes a "dungeon" in a game like this again? Anyway, a remake of the "Soar" feature from Alpha/Omega would probably be as close as you could get. (Though, there were still some limitations there, weren't there? Or did I just not notice the whole different time/different days thing with that?)
Maybe, but you also have to remember: Rumors like this have been coming up with every game ever since Gen V after Battle Revolution was the last console game.
As for the Munchlax.... don't know since I got mine already. I think I DID see something in my Facebook feed that it's coming to and end before too long....

DiceAura273 In reply to Pink-Lady03 [2017-01-16 09:33:20 +0000 UTC]

Well an area of the game where there are lots of Pokemon, hidden items and no facilities (like shops and Pokemon Centers), trainers are optional.
Rather then Soar, they could just have the rifts opening up in various part of whatever region the game is set in. I mean there doesn't even need to be a reason for them. ORAS didn't need one... or at least I never found one... (I didn't notice any limitations... what kind are you talking about?)
True but in the case of the Switch it is suppose to be a Consol/Handheld Hybrid and new main Pokemon games are always on Handhelds! And besides it seems like Pokemon has discovered the limits of the current handheld.
I already got the Munchlax too. I'm just saying it and the Snorlax Z Crystal aren't gonna be around forever and all the poor players who couldn't get the game in time will never be able to get the
Also I just beat the Elite 4! I really enjoyed it! Your advise of being Lv 60 really helped. I was Level 58 but still... My strongest was Lv 60 when I fought Tapu Koko. Granted it was a bit of a joke when I realized Nature's Madness always does half and other then that it's got Electic moves. My Mudsale just tanked it while I chucked about 9 balls at it. But MAN! Kakui... He was scary... His Snorlax and Magnazone... damn...

Okay, so like caves and such.... But, I don't know, you kinda just stated what the flaw in getting rid of those types of areas would be: less areas to catch Pokemon that might be specific to those kind of environments (I.E, you get rid of the caves you suddenly don't have too many Rock and Ground types, etc.)
By "limitations" I mean that you're not gotta see a Keldeo flying in the sky. I also mean the typical "version-exclusive" limitations, like between the Tao Trio I think I only ever saw Zekrom and there was no room for Kyurem at all I think since he's flightless (I think...). THOSE kind of limitations. Having random rifts would solve the problem for the flightless Pokemon, yes, but again, it doesn't solve the fact that you still have to physically program these "void" spaces into the game which takes more space/memory.
Right, but I've also heard that, even WITH both capabilities you are still going to have games that are classified as "console" and "handheld" and the handheld ones are still bound to not have the space/memory capabilities of the console ones and Pokemon is most likely to fall under the handheld category. Granted, there is bound to be an increase in the power of handheld games with this, there is not doubt about that, but we just can NOT expect a Mario 64/Sunshine/Galaxy-sized world from a Pokemon game. We just can't. I read an article once that the people at Game Freak have gathered a LIST of some of outlandish wishes the fans have (I.E, a game with ALL regions) and they read them out loud in a mocking manner and sit and LAUGH at them BECAUSE they know from experience that it's just not possible. It's fun to dream, but we also have to be realistic. I've said it about dubbing anime and I'll say it about making video games: trust the professionals. They know what they're doing. Rather than sitting and complaining about what we DON'T have we should be looking at the advances that come with each generation of games and be happy for what we DO have. (Again, it's fine to dream but we can't let those turn into expectations or we just end up disappointed.)
I wouldn't say it's going to be gone FOREVER. An event like this is probably the kind of thing where it will become unavailable for a time, yes, but they'll find another occasion to distribute it again.
Yeah, I admit I had to rest my game a couple of times with Kakui.... and I'm glad that you enjoyed the extended epilogue, because all it did was make me hate Lilie even more... "Gee! You healed me before taking on Tapu Koko, but THANKS FOR LETTING ME SAVE OR STOCK UP ON ON POKEBALLS BEFORE HAND!" (seriously, I was reaching the bottom of the barrel there... I got lucky...) and THEN because of how long it took before they gave you a chance to save (again, thanks to Lillie's drawn-out departure) MY WORKOUT WAS VERY NEARLY HELD UP! (in fact, it WAS kind of! I had to balance my 3DS on the treadmill while the credits were FINALLY rolling....) A character I ALREADY didn't like SOMEHOW did the ONE thing that I can NOT forgive! Okay... I'm done now.

Not really since Legendaries wouldn't be the only things to catch there. One can still catch other Pokemon in the "Whirlpool Islands" despite being where Lugia is caught. One can still catch Pokemon in the "Sky Pillar" despite being where Rayquaza is caught.Β 
I'm not saying one game, or even on future gen should have ALL the Legendaries. Just some like that gen's Uber Legendaries and a handful of other Legendaries from previous Gens. I'm not asking for much (definitely not a second region in the game... as cool as that'd be) just that people don't have to constantly follow Pokemon News Sites/Youtubers/Twitters/etc. in order to "catch 'em all". I like catching Legendariess! It's a fun challenge. I don't like having to go on Pokemon News Sites daily to get a powerful Pokemon handed to me (that makes no sense in the narrative of the story). That's tedious. Also... Xenoblade Chronicles runs just fine on the "New 3DS"/"Wii" and that has a HUGE world. So a bigger region in a Switch Pokemon isn't impossible...or at least doesn't seem that way. And I just remembered... there are plans to bring SKYRIM to the Switch and that World is MASSIVE.
I didn't have a problem with Pokeballs. Ever since the early days I make sure I have a lot. (Speaking of Pokeballs have you found a way to get more of those "Jotho Pokeballs" Oak's cousin gave during the story?) I mean I didn't have a problem with any of the cutscene being too long (although I'll admit it was) or the sudden toss into the battle (I was honestly expecting Hau to challenge me, like AZ and the ORAS rival before him) mainly because I played it when I had time. At night or on the weekends are when I finish games. Never before work.... although I rarely get the chance to play games before work.
Speaking Tapu... I trained up a team of Pokemon to catch Legendaries... and caught all the Tapus in one night. Now I just need to go to where the Ultra Beast event starts...Right at...uh... O.O Oh crap I completely forgot where it starts...

Okay, then I'm confused because it sounded to me like you just said to get rid of dungeons in order to make room for these extra legendary encounters and the kind of place your describing for these encounters to take place in still sounds like a dungeon to me. I also feel like that might detract from the story of the game if your constantly going back to search for a hidden legendary in every cave/forest/etc. Even making it all post-game might make the main story seem less significant because "OMG I HAVE TO BLOW THROUGH ALL OF THIS SO I CAN GET ______!" Even if it won't PHYSICALLY take away from it still feels that way to me Β and it bugs me how quickly people blow through these things already.
For the most part, the games DO contain that region's legendary Pokemon while they program in one or two more into the dex to be released/distributed later for the sake of a movie and/or possibly replay value (It's not our fault that hackers dig into the coding and expose them to the internet before they're officially recognized). Adding a few more from previous regions would be nice, but they probably just want to focus mainly on THAT region's Pokemon for the most part and in some cases it might not even make sense in canon for certain Pokemon to be seen in certain other regions, so think of them as LOCAL legends. And if you're a fan then why are you so opposed to being a part of the community? You might not like it, but connecting through social media is just the way the world is going these days. I mean, I'm not a member or anything, but I consult Bulbapedia for help or just a general reference on nearly a daily basis. It's a very well-know website, it costs me nothing and I learn of most of these events without even having to know/talk to anyone on the website, it's readily available. Why is that so hard? Heck, even just the official Pokemon Website details the distributions, so it's not like there's some hidden, secret community you have to know someone to be able to get in to find the information.
Again, I'm not saying that we won't have more capabilities with the switch. We are going to, its inevitable. A significantly larger world is entirely possible but there IS still going to be a line SOMEWHERE is all I'm saying.
You might not like the social media aspect, I'm tired of people who know nothing about the industry thinking that they know how to make the perfect Pokemon game and bashing on the professionals just because they didn't use all of the ideas they had in their head, regardless of if the ideas are even possible or reasonable by what the games are capable of. I'm going to say it one more time: TRUST THE PROFESSIONALS. Let's NOT complain about what they DIDN'T do and be HAPPY for the advances that DO come with each game. While we're at it, I'm sick of debating so let's just drop it because it's becoming frustrating.

My plan was to save/stock up after the league, though. I wasn't counting on being irrefusably thrown into battle (again, with no chance to even safe) before then. As for the other types of Pokeball, a few of the various Pokemarts sell them on the various islands, but I couldn't tell you which ones off the top of my head because I don't have all the names memorized (again, this is the kind of thing I consult Bulbapedia for) but most of them should be there.... And again, I WAS playing when I had time. It's not like I was on one of my piddly 15-minute work breaks, I had like a full hour-and-a-half before my sister would let me use the treadmill because it was a weekend when I started) I just ran out of time because I could have never counted on the epilogue being so long and drawn out. I realy have no idea where to begin wit the UBs, either. I've been recruited by Annabelle and Looker, but with no hints as to really WHERE they're appearing.

"Every [area]"?! No I said a handful, aka "a few", from each Gen, like 6 or 8 prievious legendaries in each version. Did the existence of a bunch of old legendaries in ORAS detract from the story? No, it didn't. Anyone who'd blow through the game would have done so anyway. That's how they enjoy the game. Not everyone appreciates the story like (I am assuming) you and I do.

As to why I try to stay out of the PokeCommunity (is that what they're called... if not it should be... there has to be a fan site or forum called that its just too obvious) two reasons, "I'm lazy/I don't like to focus on a single game for too long to prevent growing tired of it" andΒ  "Spoilers". I'd follow BulbaNews on Twitter but they post more that I don't care about (Tournaments, TCGS, Anime) or more importantly don't want to know about (New Game Spoilers) then I do care about (Event Pokemon).

Point taken. The possibllity is there but they'll probably just make a decent sized region with tons improvements to visual quality and gameplay (and hopefully story on caliber with or above Sun and Moon).

Okay that's not a good mindset. If the fans didn't constantly complain about HMs being a waste, we would've never gotten Ride Pokemon. Same goes for character customization. We wanted to make our Avatar look like whatever we want, we complained, we got what we wanted. Fans need to let developer what needs to change (within reason) because as the consumers we want the best product possible.

Honestly, sorry if I'm sounding a bit preachy but... let this be a lesson for you in the future. Always have a large supply of Pokeballs. You never know when your luck will go bad and you'll need about 15 Great Balls on 1 Pokemon.

I found out what to do on the UBs. If you don't know (or remember in my cases) where to find them just talk to Looker, he'll tell you. In case you didn't know they're like "roaming Pokemon" and appear as a random encounter. By the way, they're not exaggerating when they say UBs are tough... I'm stuck on the 3rd. Oh what did you think of Anabel? I love her new design.Her design is so cool and beautiful!

Enough; I said I'm sick of debating this. You've said your piece and I've said mine and it's clear this is just something we don't agree on so let's be done with it and move on because I'm getting upset. THIS is why I hate debating.

Eh, I'm not too worried about the UB's yet. I'll go back and consult Looker once I get the rest of my team up to level 90 and use them to help with that final stretch to 100. =3= As for Anabel.... I'm sorry, but i never really did anything with the Battle Frontier back in the day (didn't care for the rules each area had) and I never even saw much (if any) of the Frontier arc of the show since Advanced Generation is where I lost track of where/when the new episodes were between CN and 4Shame (I actually even tried to "ween" myself from the show because of it, but then I discovered the manga and picked it up again like a bad habit with D/P) and I've been exposed to more art than I would care to remember from a complete wierdo/perv here who is, apparently, a big fan of Anabel, so.... the cameo was cool, but I couldn't fully appreciate it....

[Spit take] 90?! Okay that's a bit overkill I only finished the 3rd but I'm pretty sure they're not gonna go over 70.
You're talking to someone whose only knowledge of Anabel is the manga, and some loose stuff about the anime (Ash thought she was a he or something like that?). I never even HAD Emerald so... yeah I didn't care about the cameo. I was just asking about your thoughts on her redesign. Artist to artist.

Oh you mentioned before that you didn't like Lillie. I'm curious as to why. ... Not try to sound hostle but I just wanted to know.

[casually] Yes, 90. I have to get my team to 100 at some point, don't I? Not that I'm an ultra-competitive player, but that's pretty much what you're going to be up against online... (or does the Global Link do that "roll back to Level 50" thing? I can't remember... >.<) You had you're rough lesson about PokeBalls and I had my rough lesson about making sure my Pokemon are over levled AF back in the first generation since I picked Charmaner..... and that lesson still applied to my starters ALLLL the way up to gen 4, but by that time I was just used to being over levled to be prepared.
As for the design... I dunno, the outfit didn't jump out at me and I admittedly rolled my eyes a little at the fact that they just had to give her long hair now.

No, I'm sorry, but you're not going to drag me into another stupid debate over this. I don't care if you like her, just know that I don't. I will grant that yes, she develops and (maybe) becomes tolerable by the end, but honestly by that point it's too late. That is all.

ALSO! I keep forgetting to mention it, but are you aware of Beyblade Burst?

Yeah... Global Link, Battle Tree, all online stuff is Lv 50. Kind of a bummer but... that's just how it is. "...over leveled AF..."? Anyway, I can't stand being overleveled in a Pokemon game. Usually they're easy enough but going over level is just kinda boring... it made ORAS boring and aggravating. But to each there own I guess.

Ah. Okay. Hmm.... what other cameos/redesigns were in Alola again? ... I think... Uh... I heard Red and Blue are in the game but I haven't gotten there yet. GRAH! There a plenty of cameo/redesigns but I can't remember them! T-T

Debate? No. I just wanted to know your opinion but fine. What about Hau?

"Aware"? Yes. "Seen"? Not as of yet.

Speaking of "forgetting to mention", are you aware Dragon Ball Super is airing it's English dub on Adult Swim? (Also they're airing DB Kai's Buu Saga... Videl and Gohan training together is actually kinda cute! 0///0)

Hmm.... Okay, well even if all of THOSE are, the live competition I'll face at cons and such I don't think will be (At least, not that I recall...) so I still wanna get my team up to 100. And, admittedly, maybe "AF" is a bit of an overstatement, but I DO want to give myself a good cushion. I don't see it as making it boring, it's my way of being prepared (like with you and your Pokeballs) because I never want to face that kind of humiliation and frustration again. I don't like rage-quitting.

Oh yeah, Red and Blue are there. Haven't reached them yet, but from what I've seen I think they give you the choice between battling one or the other. (you reminded me that I wanna draw their manag counterparts in their alola clothes and maybe make up outfits for Green and Yellow...) Colress is another cameo, but eh~ Other than that.... can't name any off the top of my head.

Hau I liked from the instant I saw his goofy smile; I just dearly wish he could have contributed to the story a bit more. I was also kind of hoping he'd be one of Ash's traveling companions, but it looks like that's not happening. Wonder if/when he'll show up in the anime at all....

I guess "seen" is more of what I meant, but I meant "aware" as in "the dub started on Disney XD back around Christmas/New Years". I'll warn you in advanced they've changed the rules of the game a bit (though, actually in a good way that makes it a little more realistic) and our hero Vault.....well, as much as I love characters with energy... this guy might max out even MY scale. I also have no clue what the theme with the Bey-Spirits is supposed to be here, other than alteration.Β 

Oh yeah, I've been following Super the last few weeks since it started. The Kai Buu Saga, however... I kinda dropped the ball on, but eh, I read the manga for that. But now you see why I always liked Videl XD

and..... any chance you're getting any closer to a response for that Digimon RP? I just had a partner hit pause on me since I guess he's busy at work and I haven't heard from my other in a while, even though he said he'd get on it as soon as he could, so now I'm reeeeeeeealy bored....Β Β

No, I wasn't question you using "AF", I was questioning what it meant.
Like I said, "to each their own". Heard leveling Pokemon is easier late-game, in this Gen, but I never bothered to watch those videos in fear of spoilers. Maybe they could help you?

Colress? ... Oh yeah he was in the game! ... Wasn't he evil? (Still haven't beaten B2/W2). OH! The Gen 6 Professor's two assistants, Dexio and Sina, are in the game and I believe they went through puberty too.

Eh I wasn't a fan since he VERY rarely got serious, and was never a challenge. Honestly I wish that they could have somehow combined Hau and Gladeon (who sounds like an Eeveelution) because one is too aloof and the other is too serious (and has a creepy as fuck smile).

I'll check it out eventually. What do you mean by "alterations"? Of the original Bit Beasts, Metal's Constellations Spirits, or Steel's RPG Classes?

That's good. I was worried you mighta missed it. I almost did! XD I only caught it by chance since I was checking if the next JJBA episode was a new one and saw DBS on the listings.
Battle of Gods (and that one episode of Kai with the Amusement Park) made me love Vegeta and Bulma ("THAT'S MY BULMA!!!" then kicks Beerus ass for a few minutes), Resurrection F made me love 18 and Krillin (the scene where Krillin leaves to help fight Freeza's men and 18 goes "He's so cool"), and now Kai (and random bits of Super) made me love Gohan and Videl. ... Still waiting for Goku and Chichi...

AF, "As Fu**".

Statistically, I don't think anything changed between this game and the previous ones that wold make it easier, but eh, I don't need a loophole.

Yeah, he was, but I think that maybe at the end he was Β supposed to have changed/reformed so that's why he's so benign here? Oh! And Grimsly is another one I just remember but.... I.... don't remember what if anything he really did.... I feel like he MIGHT have given you the Sharpedo Ride? He was on that beach where the rocks were that you need it for....


Blah, I didn't mean Β "alterations", I meant alliteration; Vault's bey is "Victory Valtryek", Shu's is.... something "Spryzen", Rantaro's is "Raging Roktavor", Ken's is "King Kerbeus", Diago's is...

Although, where I was looking at the Wiki just now to confirm some of the spelling here, I just saw there was a tweet that said the second series of Burst is going to be "Beyblade Burst: God", so maybe THAT'S the theme here, some really, REALLY obscure Gods...

Hey, I thought the flashback to Goku and Chichi's wedding in the first episode of "Z" was cute....

Just looked it up. It's SOS battling (whatever that means) Bewears. Being OP might be nessesary for UB hunting... I'm on the 4th one and it one shots all my Pokemon execpt Klefki... even my Level 75 Tapu Koko! The UB I'm hunting is LV 60!

OH Yeah he was in the game wasn't he... wearing I think a robe... or something just as casual... I think that may be all we seen in the main story. According to a co-worker of mine, there's more cameos in the Battle Tree but I've heard rumors that place is cheap as fuck so I ain't touchin' that!

Okay I think I got the theme: Various Mythology. The Dub just censored everything. Valtryek = Valkyre, Spryzen = Spriggan a Norse Fairy or Spirit or something, Rokatvor = Ragnarok the Norse End Times, Kerbeus = Cerberus Greek guard dog of Hades, Xcalius = Excalibur King Arthur's Holy Sword, Doomscizor = Deathscythe ... that one I'm stumped on since only anime seems to use that term and I don't think it's an actually myth, just a Japanese take on the western Grim Reaper holding a Scythe.

It was but ... I'm talking non-flashback. Current day.

Darn it, so you don't know what SOS battles are either? *looks it up* Okay, so Bulbapedia says it's just when any given wild Pokemon calls for help and turns a single battle into two on one. Okay, I get it now.... I think the only way it works, though, is if you have a "field move" that can take both targets out at once. (in other words: Not worth whatever kind of a boost it can give) I'm fine grinding in... whatever the "post-champion" area is and playing "hot potato" with the Lucky Egg for more EXP.

Oh, right! Cynthia, Wally and a couple other appear there, but I never really had any interest in it from the get-go.

Yeah, I figured there was some mixing and matching in there since I think that's happened with all the previous generations too (especially when you start getting into the World Tournaments). And now that I'm looking at the Japanese names for some of these Beys you might be right; Valtryek's original name IS "Valkyre Wing Accel"... except that makes NO sense visually, because the Bey-Spirit is shown as a knight on a horse! >.<

Hey, it still counts... I mean, if they've been together this long and have had not just one, but multiple children together in that time I can give them the benefit of the doubt that the love is there. I mean, yeah, she nags him, but at the same time.... he's Goku.

I don't understand it myself. I'll just the same as you... which is what I was already doing.

I heard its the most difficult/cheap "Battle Area" to date.

"A knight on a horse"... a medieval knight? I mean Valkyrie did ride horse horses so at least they got that right.

Just saw the most recent Super episode and while I would normally try to avoid spoiling it but... I can't. I know I'm not to knowledgeable about relationships but Chichi and Goku's seems REALLY unhealthy. Goku wants to train with Whis and Chichi isn't having any of that (and is trying plan out Pan's life despite only being her Grandma but that's another can of rotten worms...) so Goku goes behind her back but Chichi found out and tried to force him not to go. Goku breaks free as Whis is about to leave and Chichi gets mad at first but then completely changes her tone, happily saying that she can always start over with trying to change Goku. That seems really bad to me... I mean trying to obsessively change someone completely seems... insane... especially since she seemed so happy aboutΒ  trying to change him! You said yourself that the love that Homura felt for Madoka wasn't actual love but obsession and I think that Chichi falls into the same catagory. Only difference is Chichi got her target of obsession.

As was I. And... I've actually already been done for a little while and mad ea couple minor tweaks to my team. After comparing the stats, I swapped out my Alolan Ninetails for a Glaceon and my Flareon for Incineroar after getting a Litten in Wonder Trade. I also did try my hand at a little Online Battling around my birthday and I actually pretty much broke even, so about as good as I had hoped when you have insane people out there with OP teams of nothing but CLEARLY hacked shiny legendary Pokemon.

Well..... it's hard for me to describe, but definitely more armor than I would normally associate with a Valkyrie, let's put it that way. And, while they may have ridden horses (now that I'm remembering that old Bugs Bunny cartoon and possibly the Courage episode) Β it's still not something I'd normally imagine when I picture one. And now that I've gotten a better look, it DOES have the winged helmet (but again, not the style I'd normally imagine) so they got THAT right.

You make it sound like I wasn't watching last night. And to be honest, I'm with Chichi as far as training with Whis goes; He should get a job and help support/be with his family more. He's a grandfather now. Krillin has settled down, and he's happy. And I also think you might be taking her "changing" him a little too seriously/literally. I don't think she means change him completely, she just means she needs/wants to "polish" him a little as far as social etiquette and the like goes, and you and I both know he needs it considering what he came from; a brutish race of warriors. The same could be said for Vegeta, too. They're both diamonds underneath it all (yes, I'll admit that even Vegeta has sparkled on a couple occasions) but they ARE both still in the rough a bit. As far as Pan goes, I think she's just excited that there's another baby around for her to pamper, and a girl at that. She'll back off once Pan get's a little older. I'm also just gonna say it again: They've been together this long, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that the love is there.

Yeahhh... the Pokemon Company has given up tryin' to sift though all the hackers and let them do whatever they want now. They can even enter Official Tournaments with hacked Pokemon.

Oh... DBS comes on at 8 too... right... Yeah forgot about that... >.>
I'm with Gohan. Goku was the only one able to fight on par with Beerus. What happens when someone in about the same power range shows up? *coughGoldenFreezacough* *coughChampacough* How would Farmer Goku be able to help? Who would be able to save Earth? Whis and Beerus don't give a crap. Gohan, Gotenks, and Buu can't do shit. Sure Chichi, PUT the entire world (possibly galaxy/universe) danger, just as long as you get your way!
Also why would Vegeta need to get a job? Bulma is LITERALLY the heir to the most WEATHY AND POWERFUL COMPANY ON THE PLANET. Besides I don't think Bulma cares about Vegeta getting a job.
As for Krillin, unlike Goku & Chichi who can use money from the Ox King and fighting Tournaments winning, Vegeta & Bulma are simply rich, Gohan and Videl who is related to the most famous person in the world, Krillin was poor. He was living at Kame House while he when Maron was born. Of course he needed a job!
Considering Pan, I can accept Chichi being exciting but she has as much right to Pan as Mr Satan, and less right to Pan then Gohan and Videl! Videl seems perfectly fine letting Pan be a fighter but is Chichi having any of that? No she's (albeit more passively) coerce Videl to not do that.
I'm not saying they don't love each other, it's just Chichi is expecting too much from him. She wants to turn a fight-loving warrior into a peaceful modest farmer. That's like turning a tree into a rock. Not gonna happen.

I wasn't complaining or anything, I was just stating a fact that they are out there and because they are they're going to ruin battling for some people. I actually DID managed to take out one pretty OP team, though, so THAT felt pretty good.

Having a job wouldn't make him completely forget how to fight. It also doesn't mean he has to give up keeping up on his training ENTIRELY, either, but having him disappear for MONTHS at a time just to train for a fight that might not and, realistically, should't come (even if we know it is) is unacceptable. And of COURSE when that threat inevitable DOES come she's not going to stop him from saving the world. If she complains then it's concern for his safety, and if she ever even did THAT I think she's past it because he's come out on top enough times.
And when I mentioned Vegeta I didn't mean the bit about getting a job specifically. He doesn't need one for just the reason you said; Bulma's got this. I more meant just settling down in general (at least a little) and spending more time with the family and such. Again, the disappearing act isn't good for ANYONE.
Granted, but between her and Mr. Satan, Chichi definitely has more experience with raising children between Gohan and Goten. Again, she's spurting out every piece of advice that comes to mind now, but that IS just the natural response of ANY experience mother to a first-time mother. She'll back off.
Subconsciously, I think she DOES realize that and that's why she eventually changed her mind on letting him train with Whis. And again, I don't think she's expecting a TOTAL transformation/change, either, she just wants to polish him a little.

I know how that feels. Do you remember how that went? I wouldn't mind a bit of a counter monkey story!

Unfortunately "disappearing for months at a time" is kinda necessary for the intense training that they're doing. It's not just a "weekend thing" (also Farming also isn't just a "5 Days a week thing" either).
Yeah Vegi should spend more time with his family but again Bulma seems cool with this.
Eh... we don't know how close Mr Satan was with raising Videl, although considering how he dotes on her I wouldn't be surprised if he was very attentive to his little girl. ... Okay now I wonder of there's any fan art of Mr Satan raising a little Videl, because that just sounds adorable to me! Admit it! You were thinking the same!
I don't know... the way she was seemed like she changed her mind because going on raging was pointless and she'll just try again later. Which seems crazy and unhealthy.

Uh... lesee... I know their team had all three starters, two Ultra Beasts and Solgaleo. It was just a basic three-on-three battle, but my lovely, adorable Magearna managed to one-shot the two UBs. Solgaleo was the only one I struggled a little with just because of the typing compered to the three Pokemon I picked, but I still one.

What are you training so hard for, though? The off chance someone/something may or may not threaten earth again? Realistically, the fighting should have been done a LONG time ago. Like I said, doing enough to Keep in shape just in case is one thing, but going off and training when there is no reason to makes no sense. If/When the treat is there you have a bit more of an excuse, but during the periods of peace it is ridiculous. And ENOUGH WITH THE FARMING! The farm didn't belong to Goku, he was just HELPING and that IS something that can be done "5 Days a Week". There was also absolutely NO evidence I saw that said this was his one and only job. I got the impression that it was just one of many random odd jobs.

While admittedly it could be cute, I don't feel like that's how it went. Given her slight attitude and independence when we first meet her, I'd say she was left to do a lot of things for herself. Not that it doesn't mean that Mr. Satan doesn't still love her the way a doting father would nor that he isn't maybe TRYING to be that way/make up or not being there, but I don't think he really was. He's a celebrity after all. I'm sure he was running around doing photo shoots and guest appearances and all that good stuff a lot. That's the impression I get, at least.

I still say you're taking her words too literally for something that was probably meant to be funny. Her behavior didn't strike me as odd for her at all since It's also not like she hasn't had little "fits" like this before, either, but she always get past them just like this. Granted, it maybe does seem like too easy of a solution, but if anything that's more just an example of rushed writing.

keldeo was one of the first event pokemon I actually managed to get my paws on in the games, and Vic voicing it in the movie was a pleasing shock for me that made the movie one of my favorites as well. (I don't have copies of enough things with Vic voicing good characters.)

Meloetta is my next target in December, but I get the feeling she might be a little harder than the others because of the Christmas rush.

Ah, so you don't even live in the US. It's unfortunate they didn't include your region didn't get their own release, then since I do know how things can get expensive when you have to import them (though, in my case I'm usually buying from Japan). I feel bad you have to spend the extra money since people also seem to like to jack up the price for special/limited items like this when you can't get them yourself directly.

No, that's why. I live in Argentina, and pre-orders and basically anything of Nintendo isn't available here. Even the e-shop is not available! And I'm not and surely won't be spending extra money for that. Not only the price for the product gets stupidly higher than for example the US, also I have way more important things to spend my money on.
