Competitive Crunch #9: Overgrow, Blaze, and Torrent

Hey, guys! Welcome to another late post; this time, it's a segment of Competitive Crunch.

Today, I'll be doing something quick and analyzing the three starter abilities.

First, there's Overgrow.

Overgrow is obtainable by these following Pokemon:

-Bulbasaur and its evolutions
-Chikorita and its evolutions
-Treecko and its evolutions
-Turtwig and its evolutions
-Snivy and its evolutions
-Pansage and Simisage
-Chespin and its evolutions

Overgrow boosts the power of the user's Grass-type attacks by 1.5x when their HP is at one-third or less. (Approximately 33%)

The second of these abilities is Blaze.

Blaze is obtainable by these following Pokemon:

-Charmander and its evolutions
-Cyndaquil and its evolutions
-Torchic and its evolutions
-Chimchar and its evolutions
-Tepig and its evolutions
-Pansear and Simisear
-Fennekin and its evolutions

Blaze boosts the power of the user's Fire-type attacks by 1.5x when their HP is at one-third or less. (Approximately 33%)

The last of these three abilities is Torrent.

Torrent is obtainable by these following Pokemon:

-Squirtle and its evolutions
-Totodile and its evolutions
-Mudkip and its evolutions
-Piplup and its evolutions
-Oshawott and its evolutions
-Panpour and Simipour
-Froakie and its evolutions

Torrent boosts the power of the user's Water-type attacks by 1.5x when their HP is at one-third or less. (Approximately 33%)

In conclusion, these three abilities are pretty much the same and somewhat stupid because you never realize when they activate.

That's all for today. Hopefully I can continue to catch up on missed posts. 

Until then, stay awesome!

Monotype Monday #11: Water vs Dragon

Hey, guys! Welcome to today's Monotype "Monday"! Well, it's actually Friday and you normally would be seeing a Featured Remix here, but hopefully that'll be coming shortly. Posting on Emolga's Place recently has been pretty limited due to the busy authors that haven't seemed to be posting anything in a while.

COUGH COUGH

Well, the battle for today is against a very, VERY skilled battler by the name of BeardedCharizard.

Click the Manaphy the check out the battle!

That's all for now. Tune in later for possibly some more catching up to do.

Until then, stay awesome!

Showdown Sunday #11: Diggersby Tho

Hey, guys! It's been a while since anything happened on Emolga's Place and I've been behind on my posts so I thought now would be a good time to start catching up.

Sweep Saturday #7: Luxray Sweep

I wanted to do a Caterpie sweep, but that didn't work so I wasted almost two hours of my day... So have this battle that took me two minutes instead!

Click the Luxray to check out the battle.

~Credits to pkparaiso.com, Showdown, and Narsic for helping me with this post. GIVE THEM A BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE!!!~

That's all for now. I got a little lazy with this post, but that's alright, I guess.

Until the next post, stay awesome!

Quick Note: From now on if I'm lazy with Sweep Saturdays, I'll most likely post a 1v1 battle like this one.

Spheal with it.

Ento Starters....in Minecraft!

I told you that I would post my Pokemon Minecraft creations, and here they are: Marsupine, Dimmil, and Foo.

Minecraft Creations: Mr. Saturn and Super Mario Question Block

I made some cool Minecraft stuffs and I thought I should show them to you :D

Question block: 

You can even go inside of it and find that a huge coin is hidden inside!

Mr. Saturn:

This creation was nothing really special. It only took me a few minutes to build. Tommorrow I'll post my pokemon creations I made on Minecraft.

Alex 17.... oof!

Monotype Monday #10: Flying vs Grass

Hey, guys! Welcome to a one day late edition of Monotype Monday. Unfortunately, I had to go looking through the replay database again for a battle because battles weren't working today...
This isn't really a full battle, but more of a joke. It's the best I could get...
Also by the way Togekiss is amazing.

Click the Togekiss to check out the battle!

~Credits to Deebe for having this battle with me. THANKS, DEEBE!!!~

That's all for today. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up on more missed posts later on this week. Until then, stay awesome!

Shiny Spotlight: Super Dragons!

These three Pokemon all have fantastic shiny forms! Dratini and Dragonair are both pink with Dratini being a lighter pink and Dragonite is a green color with purple wings. I think Dragonite's old dark green color scheme is a little ugly, but it does look more like an actual dragon. Shiny Dragonite in X and Y has a lighter green color than past generations and it looks more sleek.

~Thanks to Serebii for these shiny sprites~

Time to Draw: Ness and Mr. Saturn!

I felt bad for not doing a Time to Draw last week, so I'm going to do one today. I actually used pencils and paper to make this drawing instead of using GIMP. Drumroll please.....

It's a little sloppy, but it came out nice. I took this picture of the drawing with an iPad so the lighting is a little off. What do you think? Does it look goooooood?
