Boy there's something that was said in the game that kind of annoyed me, I think it might be spoiler but here it is:
When Juniper's father comments on Pokemon and people he says: "When you capture a Pokemon you don't capture it's heart, you befriend it." Bullshit, if that were true why do Pokemon struggle and break free from Pokeballs? Why are there different kinds of Pokeballs that are stronger and make capturing easier? The Master Ball guarantees a capture no matter what, isn't that like capturing their hearts?
I'm really getting sick of this "Pokemon are our equals" shit. Because by the sounds of it it almost seems like they are our betters! Some trainer said: "If I win it is because of my Pokemon, if I lose it's because of me." So that's pretty much saying nothing is ever a Pokemon's fault and we are always to blame because Pokemon are perfect and Jesus.

It's because at it's core Pokemon represents a bizarre mesh of forced slavery, cock-fighting and animal cruelty that is also INCREDIBLY fun, so to make that bizarreness more marketable and less twisted they give it some carebears logic and make it so nobody ever seems to die even though there are clearly mass pokemon graveyards and ghost pokemon.
Imagine playing Pokemon where there were extended minigames where you beat the pokemon mercilessly to teach it new moves.

>Didn't even use everstone for the nature
I'm quite pleased, despite the redundant high attack. Defense doesn't bother me since Zoroark is pretty fragile anyway.
I've got a mild Zorua with 31 hp/spa/spe that I don't plan on using, if anyone would like that.

Roughly 80% of my box space in SoulSilver is full of mystery eggs left over from incalculable hours of breeding.

That's a pretty common occurence in battle tower scenarios, bro. You need to pack something with never-miss moves, or Haze (Hi, Cofagrigus!) to counter it.
Specs 'n' Headphones has been revamped! Check it, yo.
Thanks to Pik and Solink; they are sexy people.

Usually, I have my Lucario's Aura sphere to deal with double team abusers. I wish they'd give more moves that attribute, or just remove the 0.4% margin of error for the moves given "100" accuracy.
I love my new Axew. He has Mold breaker, an adamant nature, and IVs of 22/31/29/31/23/31.
Best Axew ever! And he hatched from the first Axew egg I got from the daycare. What are the chances? Nicknamed him Killasaur.

Using the Masuda method to [try to] get a shiny Solosis. Considering my luck when it comes to pokemon games, It's never going to happen :X
