F!S Anon Meme (the ??th!)

F!S Anon Meme (the ??th!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required.
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff. If you want me to link your thread up here, drop a link in the first comment!



General:
Halloween costumes

Fandom-general:
Porn comics
F/F recs
Guilty pleasures

Fandom-specific:
Girl Meets World

Pokemon Vortex

Anyone else here play this?

I've been playing it on-and-off since 2005, when it was still called Pokemon Crater. My parents wouldn't buy the official Pokemon games for me, so it was the closest I could get.

I kind of wish it had its own anon meme, like the one for Flight Rising. The forums are full of illiterate 12 year olds.

Do pokemon have IVs in this or are they all the same?

I'm not sure, but possibly? To be honest, I don't fully understand how IVs work to begin with.

I have no idea how to catch pokemon! I tried using a pokeball but nothing happened and it skipped a turn...

The trick is to get a pokemon's HP really low without killing it. Even then, sometimes you have to throw several of pokeballs before one sticks. Just like in the official games, great balls and ultra balls are more effective than normal balls and master balls are 100% guaranteed to work.

But having said that, I wouldn't recommend using a master ball to catch a non-legendary, no matter how tempting it may be. They cost waaaaaaay too much. You can win master balls for free by playing the sidequests, but that can take a while since each sidequest has like 100 battles.

Do you have a clan? How does that system work?

Re: Pokemon Vortex

(Anonymous) 2015-10-18 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I am in a clan, yes!

This page explains it pretty thoroughly (in addition to a bunch of other things, like how the events work):

I know I said in my original post that the forums are full of illiterate 12 year olds, but in spite of that they're a good place to go if you're looking for clarification from the mods about something.

I hadn't heard of it before but it looks like something I could get into.

Like I said to the above anon, there's a special event going on this month so now is a good time to sign up if you want to try it out!

I gave it a try.

I was expecting something more casual!

I'm still not sure what to think of it, but I can't say I find it very fun yet, sorry, OP.
