Why do people pay attention to PETA anymore If they're rep is nonexistent now? Is it bile fascination?

I forgot PETA existed.

As an aside, a long time ago I thought it was a funny idea to make my own activist movement: PETP. People for the Ethical Treatment of Plants. It seemed like a hilarious joke to me.

Then this happened, and I felt shame, and also immediately realized that PETA was probably a funny joke once too.

Since it is a universal world-wide release. I think Sunday is when Japan releases their new stuff. It would have been Tuesday... probably... if it followed the standard American release. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if they picked Thursday as the release date just to conform with some other country's standard.

To temporarily get away from XY talk (I AM getting my copy later today), anyone with a spare Shelmet they can trade for my Karrablast?

PM me if interested.

PETA's previous parody should have the roles changed:

Ash as the Abusive owner

Ghetsis as the Circus Ringerleader

Cheren as the Fashion Designer.

Instead, they had Cheren as abusive owner, Ghetsis as the Fashion Designer, and Ash as the Ringleader.

But who cares about what terrorists think of Pokémon.

Just finished the Pokémon PETA game. I like the ending line:

"It wouldn't be Pokémon if we didn't (soy)milk it for all it's worth!"

So anyway, Bulbapedia says that Zubat, Psyduck, and Magnemite, in addition to their initial evolutions, are in every regional Pokedex from Kanto to New Unova. Are they in the Kalos Pokedex too?

I went and got my copy at midnight. The line outside Gamestop was surprisingly long. I had assumed every other video game player in my region was of the "Pokemon is gay play GTA V or COD those are manly" dudebro variety.

I'm a bit disappointed to hear that There's only 69 new Pokemon. I guess it makes sense, though.

You should try going there at a COD release just to see the size of the line. Pretty sure it'll leave the pokemon line completely eclipsed [lol]

[up] Because of the graphical overhaul, making sure all of the old Pokemon are available to be used in the game would have taken considerably more time than usual.

That and Mega Evolutions essentially being like "new" Pokemon.

There's also all the Mega Evolutions. I suppose they somewhat count as well.

Out of curiosity, can I acquire dresses, or are they gender-locked? tongue

I'm fairly sure leakers have stated you can't cross dress.

So my Top 100 Pokemon blog series is finally finished, in time for me to get my game in the morning and find that list changed around quite a bit. Whee.

I'm actually kinda tempted to choose the Girl trainer in X, because from what i've seen so far, there's a lot more customization to her than Xavier.. or at least the screenshots have mainly only focused on her.
