Sorry, what? Even with a Power item, it takes 51 battles against 1EV Pokemon and 42.5 against a 2EV one to max out a single stat. How on earth are you calculating it?
Vitamins. 252 - 100 = 152
Power Items. Add 4 to EV
Pokerus. Doubles EVs earned.

(1+4)*2 = 10EVs per battle against a 1EV monster

152 / 10 = 15 battles with a Power item on. 1 battle with a power item off.

16 battles.

Yeah, not sure how I did it, but I got a Garchomp to gain 15 Attack in just one level.

It had a Power Bracer and Pokerus, obviously.

Oh fuck, I had a file in Emerald where Feebas was on the first tile that I tried. I CAN STILL REMEMBER IT TOO. Lined up with the fisherman on the sandbar, down three. I caught so many of them.
please stop that right now

So I got the Bead String in Okami today. I spent three hours killing absolutely everything I saw. It was awesome.

After that, I spent an hour throwing rocks at children in Twilight Princess.

Recently, I've been playing 3 games.

The Beatles Rockband - Its a rockband game with the beatles, what else is there to say?

Scribblenauts - I now have the freedom to wield a flamethrower while riding a moose.

Muramasa: The Demon Blade - Its your basic side scrolling action game, but daisies does it look nice.

There's another one? Geezus, that's, what, 12 Guitar Hero games and expansions so far, in less than four years? I mean, that puts EA to shame! I honestly don't know of any franchise that's been more milked in the history of Ever!
And that's not even counting mobile versions and DLC!

I mean, it wouldn't be so bad if anything changed between versions, but the only big change at all was between 3 and 4! They're all essentially the same game but with different songs! I mean, even the FIFA series has more gameplay changes than this series!


At least Rock Band actually puts effort into their side-games. The Beatles: Rock Band does actually have more than just a track change and texture/mode switch.

I'm currently playing Blazblue, and soon I'll be trying out the guilty gear franchise.

I just got an old xbox (it's a long story) and it has a gameboy advance emulator on it.
My mind has been blown.
Warioland, Marioland, Metroid Fusion, Golden Sun, Castlevania and lots of others, on a BIG TV SCREEN.

I won't be leaving the house for a while.
No, wait, ignore that.

You... you do know there exists these things called 'cables'? That let you use a TV as a computer monitor? Right?

Yes, but I've never bothered to download an emulator seeing as it's not only illegal, but my computer is a piece of crap. But since I actually had one just given to me, ready to go (mostly anyway, I had to patch the controller up with tin-foil), it's quite a pleasent suprise.

Just let me live in bliss and happiness, is that to much to ask?
