Yay! All those Shinxes Veph bred weren't for naught! :lol: I now have a male and female of them, so I think I should also be able to breed them in the future if anyone wants one. :)

So yeah, I kinda sorta totally bought this Flabébé plush on Friday:

Oh, and this figure:

I'm only mildly obsessed with Flabébé. I now have one of each color, and I think I would ultimately also like a shiny white flower and shiny blue flower Florges, too. And maybe one of each normal-colored evolution. >.<

And sorry for the huge picture. It's the best one I could find. :3

About a week ago I ordered a Sylveon figurine from eBay to go with my plush. c: Can't wait for it to arrive.

Advantage of ordering from Japan? You can order in pretty much anything ever. Disadvantage? Things take like a million years to arrive. >.<

I tend to order from Hobby link Japan and AmiAmi and they get here in a week and a bit at most (even if the Japanese post office still ahs a warning about delays because of the 2011 Chirstchurch earthquake XD). I go for the cheapest tracked option so Sal. I

Too bad the Pokemon team are silly and not making morre High quality action figures. Those D-Arts where nice (and I think there is a 2nd wave coming out or at least photos of one) but man if they got S.H.Figuarts to make Trainers to go with the D-arts (same company as D-arts) or Figma they'd be rolling in even more money :lol: Id kill for some trainers to go with my Pokemon figures. I have to use my other Figmas for that XD

I use this particular eBay seller though because I've used them before and I find them trustworthy. Plus the postage was dead cheap compared to others so it's only costing me a total of £5 for this cute little Sylveon to go with my other Eeveelution figures! I'm always a little wary when it comes to using sellers I've never used before, especially if it's on a completely different site.

I don't use eBay costs to much to ship here and all that stuff that comes from auction type sites. AmiAmi and HLJ are not auction sites like eBay and I have found them to be extremely trustworthy. I've never had an issue with them and I've used those sites for years!

Edit: Oh I forgot to say anything about Sunyshore! They get stuff directly from the Pokémon Centers in Japan which is awesome! ^^

*shrug* I didn't bid on it, I just bought it. The postage was cheap despite the distance. Each to their own though.

Fair enough. :3 I don't think I know either of them, but then again, I'm less interested in anime and more into just Pokémon so I tend to browse the more Pokémon-related ones like Sunyshore, which I edited my post with above. I've never actually bought anything but I plan to one day. :3

I only found out about it the other day! They do some nice tote bags and I'm very tempted to get myself the Eevee one!

I totally hadn't realized I had Marick's old DS (long gone now, it up and died cause it stopped charging and Nintendo wouldn't fix it) FC in my 3DS.

I stumbled upon the safari building (yay I beat the E4 finally!) and his name was there in the list which was really weird cause his current DS, Slendermii was there too so I went to investigate....

I have access to Phantumps and Lampents! His other DS was Ghost type :D I wish I could of found out what the 3rd one is /cry

But if anyone needs either of these guys from the safari and don't mind waiting for me to finally enter a wifi area (we'll need to plan out a day in advance), I can catch dem for you ^^

I now have an Everstone, so I can breed Modest Fennekins! I also picked up some male Eevees in the wild, and then got lucky and got a female Eevee through Wonder Trade, so now I can breed Eevees, too! I don't have any good natures for those yet, unless Naughty is good? I kinda thought that you usually wanted sp atk with Eevee and its different forms. Anyway, just let me know! However, I'm still pretty early in the game, so sometimes breeding costs me a bit of money. I'll do what I can, though!

Edit: btw, my babies have Pokerus. ;)

Sorry for the double post! I've been quite busy catching all sorts of things lately. One of the ones that I found myself really liking was Golett. I think it's a little unusual for me because I don't tend to like non-animal pokemon. But I do like golems in other games, and I didn't even know about this one (not familiar with all the 700+ pokemon out there), so it was a pleasant surprise when I ran into it in the wild. I looked up its evolution, Golurk, and it's actually pretty cool! I named it Steampunch, an oh-so-witty combination of "steampunk" and "punch". :P I do like the shiny version quite a bit, with the electric green glow, but I don't think I'll actively try to get it. Maybe. >.>

Also, my Braixen evolved into Delphox, and his sp atk shot through the roof! Unfortunately, his nature is Rash so his sp def is a little lower than I'd like. I thought about leveling up his Modest baby that I just hatched yesterday, but after leveling it up to 16 (Braixen) and looking at its stats, I think its IV in sp def might be low because it just seems way lower than it should be. So, with that being the case (and the fact that I'm attached to Espyre specifically), I decided to just stick with my original starter. It's so original that it's actually the one I chose in my previous save file. I traded it to my husband before I restarted, then back to myself in the new save file, even though the Fennekin I chose in the new save file had the exact same nature. :lol: I had to have THAT Fennekin! *hugs Espyre*

What can I say, I'm a WoW hunter at heart. I bond with very specific creatures, even if they're not as "good" or "rare" as others. ^.^ Same thing happened with Daisy, my Timid white Flabébé, and Rainbow, myyyyy can't-remember-what-nature-it-has Vivillon. I started to use something else with a "better" nature, then missed the originals and went back to them.

On a more general note, I really like this iteration of Pokemon. It's kinda like...it's what Pokemon should be. The graphics are neat, the battles are great, the trading is awesome, the Pokemon-amie (sp?) is fun, customizing your character is fun, etc. It just feels like a very complete game. I look forward to all the stuff it has to offer. :D

That stupid Smeargle was way harder to catch than any legendary so far.

Also, relentlessly Safari hunting for a shiny Swirlix. I don't like Swirlix. But now I do. The shiny form is really cute. ;_; Of course I've seen nothing yet but ah well, so's life.

So I've never shiny hunted until now (my ADD makes it hard but I love Ampharos, he's on my team in almost every game, and my Amphy deserves to finally be a shiny) and OMG x.x over 90 Mareeps!! How many eggs did it take for you guys??

With the Masuda method (or w/e), isn't the chance still a daunting 1/1,000-something? It's way better than 1/8,000-something, but it's still going to be a very long ride unless you're extremely lucky.

I'm just thankful that I tend to like the original coloration of almost all my pokemon. ...Almost. ;)
