@Vii: It's nice sometimes, the lack of nasty traffic is one of the best parts lol. I'm going to college there and it's a little difficult to make friends, seems like people who live here are generally a little anti-social from what I've observed. I really liked it when we owned a cabin in Kenai though. Most of my summers were spent there, and there was a time period that allowed us to spend 2 weeks there, instead of just the weekend! It was probably one of the best times of my life. :-)


@Totalanimefan: Hey hey, I'm surprised you remember me lol. It's been 2-3ish years since I last visited Voltra. It's exciting to come back in time for an event!

How's everyone doing? The site looks a little bit different, happy to see it's still thriving.

@Glide: Sure, I'd be interesting in checking out that vid. It was disappointing/a shame we never got the eternal floette lol. I'm sooo excited for gen 4's remake, it feels so strange that it's the next game in line to be remade. Hugh was pretty cool, but I think my 2nd and 3rd fave rivals are Cheren / Bianca. I liked Hau too tho..

@Glide: Emerald was my first game lol, but it was kind of shared between my brothers and I. Technically speaking pearl was my first personal game that wasn't shared. Black/White1 were the last games my older brother played with me, we went to gamestop the same day it came out and bought it. They were also the last games to feature sprites, which I miss a lot. Something about sprites just give them more personality, than the animated pokemon in X/Y and beyond. Each of the games have their own personal connections to them lol, never really thought about it until now.

However N was EASILY my favorite rival, his theme and personality were pretty cool. I loved X/Y's character customization options, but overall the game felt kind of.. rushed? I guess that's because they made it very easy lol. Not saying it was a terrible game, but probably my least favorite of them all.

So I guess..... It's still kind of a 3-way tie for me, but I believe I can narrow it down to diamond/black1. Emerald just has sooooo much nostalgia.

@Glide: That's a really hard question to answer, lol. Nostalgia says either Emerald or Diamond/Pearl, but I have been leaning a lot towards Black/White. I lost BOTH diamond and black, so I can't even replay them to help decide lol. I feel like Black/White are underrated games. What about you, what's your favorite?

I LOVE kickflip, 80s/90s patterns were the best lol

@So What: Thank you so much! They didn't give an estimate, but did give her the OK to walk without the cast/boot. She's broken her foot before so I reckon it'll take a little bit longer than usual, maybe? Hopefully by the end of June she'll be able to walk on it without any problems, she's able to walk without the cast/boot most of the time. It'd be a shame if she had to spend most of the summer inside.

@Sleepi: I don't feel lonely too often, but there are times when I'm at the college wishing I had somebody to talk to. A lot of anti-social people/cliques there lol, can't blame them though. I also can be pretty anti-social. I have one IRL friend, but he's so busy with work/school.. I've tried to schedule meet-ups but he has had to cancel every time. The group of online friends I made I've known for like.. 7+ years, and am currently in a long-distance relationship! Almost 3 years, going strong now. So it's really not so bad, I just want to hang out with a group of friends every now and then, you know? Most of us have met-up with each other now though.

Regarding game night, tbh.. I'm open to a lot of things. I have a switch, if you've got smash bros/mario kart/splatoon, a bunch of PC games too. Like.. Monster Hunter World, Rainbow Six Siege, MORDHAU, Terraria, Stardew Valley... Free to play games are cool too! It'd probably be easier if you suggested games, LOL.

@Glide: Lol, I didn't buy Ultra Sun. There were other games I wanted more, so I'll just get it if I see it in a pawn shop somewhere, or something.

@Totalanimefan: She broke 4/5 metatarsals, BUT she has made a 100% recovery. They were really fretting over her possibly needing surgery. The swelling just needs to go down now. That's pretty much what we're doing now too, haha. She feels so bad if she can't send gifts to the people on her friends list.

@Totalanimefan: Oh nonono, I don't particularly care for slakoth which is why I wouldn't want to get it. However, it would be fun to annoy my friend by capturing a shiny one and showing him it lol.

My mom and I do those lower level raids occasionally, it's just not too often. Maybe once a month or so? Usually more than that, but her foot is broken right now so we play less now.

@Totalanimefan: Not really? Or not that I've noticed. You see a few players at the college, but.. It's really just mom and I. If I had more friends it'd probably be easier to do raids. I might go to the park for community day, but probably not. I don't care too much for slakoth, if anything I'd get a shiny to annoy a friend of mine with. He absolutely haaates sloths.

@Totalanimefan: I'm level 29, I don't do raids very often. If I'm already at a location that has a raid going on I'll enter it, other than that... not really. Usually the ones I care about (legendary) there's no one else at them.

@Glide: Hello, and welcome to Voltra I've never been good at wordplay, so unfortunately I can't give you a pun. However, I am appreciative of them!
