Did Meowth ever actually win any battles?

Punching at pillows is about as useful as not doing so in the first place, it's a worthless endeavor.

I'm not a huge fan of the Pokemon main series, just because of the whole grinding thing, but Pokemon Mystery Dungeon is one of my favorite games of all time, especially Blue and Red. Sky/Darkness/Time were ok.

@story That was from pages ago. Do you just read through everything that happened while you were gone?

Do you guys ever find that? That sometimes a work is so bleak and dark that you find it tiresome to read?

It's occurred to me that there's a number of Video Games out there that could be ponified. Let's see, how do you suppose the characters in No More Heroes, Street Fighter, and King of Fighters would look if they got made into ponies?

By the way, out of the three Cutie Mark Crusaders, I say Sweetie Belle is hands down the cutest filly!

Oh, Lauren Faust, we stand on guard for thee!

He won one against a Persian, but of unknown strength. Still awesome to look at though. He also beat Brock's Onix, albeit by cheating (charismatic cheating though).

@Turtlebutter They recast everyone several years ago when the shows rights where handed to The Pokemon Company.

@Psi Don't get me wrong he's still an idiot hero.

@Tiggers Are Great I've seen ponified No More Heroes.

@story I had to read 1984 for school. The only thing I remember about it was the horribly vivid description of Winston's wrinkly body. -shudder-

@Psi, wait, he won that battle? that was the Hollywood episode that explained his origins, right? It's been so long.

@Chadaman: I know Ash got kinda bland when May appeared, likely because her and Max were supposed to be the bratty younger members at that point.

Actually Meowth only beat Onix in that episode. They then built up a super climatic battle with Pikachu, only for him to get defeated in the most humiliating and brief manner possible.

Oh right, the Togepi episode, I remember him being competent in that one but I can't recall why except for paternal instincts.

Oh god, I can't see the appeal of 1984 at all.

Meowth was always good at hurting people with his claw swipes

I remember liking Pokemon as a kid, long before starting disliking anime by default.

Show after while become boring (every episode is a same) or annoying (most of human character, esecially idiotic Ash).

Only Pokemons remained cool.

Because he know I'm going to go out in this plane and I'm going to remove one of His creations from His universe.

#229767 Psi 001 Wed, 20th Jun '12 4:53:43 PM

I found it kind of odd they wrote him as not having Pay Day, wouldn't it made a more sensical (and potentially amusing) plot point if Team Rocket had some sort of fund source for all those huge death traps and robots?

Have you ever seen a Human Focused Adaptation where the humans don't suck?

@Kegi, I'm not even sure if it would be better or worse for you. i mean on the one hand it's big career stuff so it can't be all bad, but on the other hand there's probably more work involved in the process while i'm just applying for better grunt work while I go to school.

#229769 Perpetual Lurker Wed, 20th Jun '12 4:54:58 PM

In order to try bringing ponies back into this, I think ponies being pokemon trainers would be pretty cool. How would they handle Ponyta/Rapidash, though? Has anyone read any pokemon crossover fics that address that?

#229770 storyyeller Wed, 20th Jun '12 4:56:07 PM from Appleloosa

Screw it, here it is. They deemed it too dark and cut it from the English film.

Fortunately, it somehow made it into the novelization.

Maybe in their world the Ponyta/Rapidash would be a flaming humanoid monster instead of a equine one?

Oh man, I wish you luck with this endeavour. I hate job application forms too.

#229773 Perpetual Lurker Wed, 20th Jun '12 4:58:08 PM

I could imagine a Ponyta's Rights movement forming to get them treated as ponies.

#229774 gingerninja 666 Wed, 20th Jun '12 4:58:17 PM from Aboard The Damocles

Fluttershy would be a Breeder instead of a trainer.

and the different pony cities would have gyms.

Like the Cloudsdayle gym. Not sure what E Ps who don't have Unicorn companionship would do for that though.

The big career stuff part of it makes it worse, trust me. Because with each application that goes out and doesn't get responded to I'm made to feel a little bit worse about my prospects in the industry I planned on dedicating my life to, and al ittle bit more like I've waster 2 years and 50, 000 dollars.
