Good to see pokemons get more recognition. I think we come off as a little bit too nerdy imo, lol. I wish they would've got a pic of the guy with the magikarp t-shirt which was absolutely AWESOME and totally not nerdy at all. Person who correctly guesses who's hands are on proud display gets an internet cookie

"Can my clefable metronome ditto's transform, and then copy its own minimize, but for only one energy? Huh? Can it? Huh?"

Is it weird that I find that slightly funny?

"which is probably amusing to the rest of the people in the room but would read like Geek to almost everyone outside it."

I think they meant Greek, but whatever.

I think they do mean Geek.
Not that it couldn't be a typo, though...

Quote from article: "(Actually, various religious groups have pegged the game's themes as occult. Their criticisms have something to do with the violent nature of cartoon characters that speak in high-pitched voices and that whole "evolution" thing the creatures are so fond of.)"

Seriously??? Wow.

Not bad for a game you thought died in 2002.

Who thought it died in 2002?
