Degenerate

This is the first comic I've ever drawn that ever hung in a gallery for any reason.

Go look at it, and at the off chance you're in New York City, go look at the original at Undercurrent Projects!

An Afternoon on Omegle.

My girlfriend and I had a lovely round of thought provoking discussion with strangers on the internet.
Read our dialouge under the break!

It's Nuzlocke season, apparently

I'm seeing a lot of other Nuzlocke updates on the site. I hope you aren't tired of reading them yet because I have another to add to the pile!

Last time I wrote about my Black Nuzlocke I had just started. I had Hamm the Tepig and Jasmine the Purrloin. Well, two gym badges later I am in Castelia City. I'm preparing to fight the bug gym leader there. On the way I lost Jasmine the Purrlion, RIP. She fought bravely against team Plasma but it just wasn't enough.
On the way to the second badge I caught Pecan, the Roggenrola. She and Hamm (now a Pignite) DESTROYED the normal gym with their fighting moves (Rock Smash and Arm Thrust, respectively.) On the way to kick some Team Plasma ass, I caught Biscuit the Cottonee! It's nice to have a grass guy on my team. I was starting to get worried about encountering a water Pokemon and having nothing to send out.

I'm in the Castelia City gym as I type this....I'm going to fight the gym leader real quick.
Brace yourself Burgh!

Strong start with Hamm. I have four levels on his Whirlipede. I don't want to use physical moves and get poisoned so I'm stuck with Ember for now. Dead!
Uh oh, Dwebble next. Uh, I guess Hamm will stay out. I still have four levels on him.
Flame Charge, twice. Dead!
Leavanny next. Do I chance it and send out Roggenrola? She has sturdy, why not? Go Pecan!
Oh boy. Razor Leaf hits hard. Rock Blast almost kills Leavanny but I need to get Pecan out of there.
GO HAMM! Bastard used Hyper Potion. Leavanny is faster but Flame Charge is a one hit KO
AWH YEAH FUCK YOU BURGH!
**End Live Blog**

Here's my team as it stands after that gym battle:
Hamm (Pignite) Lv. 25
Pecan (Roggenrola) Lv. 22
Biscuit (Cottonee) Lv. 24

Nuzlocke: Azalea Town and MFing Bugsy

Time for an update on my SoulSilver nuzlocke challenge! :)

So far things have gone all right, but there have been some really close calls. Togepi hatched, and that little shit knows EXTRASENSORY ALREADY. Fucking psychic-type move right out of the box. Er, egg. I guess Togepi never really leaves the egg. You get what I'm trying to say here.

I also managed to get through Union Cave (first Pokemon was a Zubat, said fuck that and killed it), which was good because I realized two things are on the other side of that cave... Slowpoke Cave and Azalea Town, which means another badge to earn and some more Team Rocket bitches. Oh, and an old guy who will make special pokeballs out of apricorns that I find. Which might prove useful later.

The King's Breakfast.

The King is a fussy man.
I said it.
Check under the break!

Nuzlocke: It's my first time, be gentle.

As some of you may have heard, I began my first ever Pokemon nuzlocke challenge on my Soul Silver game recently. (For those unfamiliar with what a nuzlocke is, check out this article for more info) As someone who has been playing these games since they first came out in '96, I can say that this is the most stressful play through of my life. LOL

Being a purist, I took Totodile as my first starter. After discussing with billielightning about the general rules for nuzlockes, we decided it would be fair to wait for any route-based restrictions to go into effect until I have received pokeballs from May. I have mostly been playing in the evenings, so I had a feeling my first catch would be a Hoothoot, and I'm glad it was. Previous playthroughs have proven Noctowl to be a great presence on a team, and his ability to take a hit and put things to sleep will be invaluable.

I kept going (beat Joey and his top percentage Rattata) through that first route, and the next Pokemon I encountered officially was Pidgey. Welp, screw that, this route's a bust. However, I remembered that Dark Cave was on this route. There are only three Pokes in that cave: Geodude, Zubat, and Dunsparce. I figured I had a 2/3 chance for something I would actually use... and I got a Geodude! Thank goodness. Otherwise that first Flying-type gym was gonna be a pain in the ass.

I'm going to offend EVERYONE.

I didn't post last saturday, so you guys get a post today.
I had a debate about Sexual fredom and expression with a feminist I didn't know over the internet and it was getting late and so to finally end the conversation, I took the I Have a Dream speech and took a few creative liberties to both express my final opinion on the matter and hopefully weird her out to the point where she doesn't PM me.

It took forever to write, and the longer I spend writing somthing the more proud I become of it.
Check it out under the break!

Nuzlocke: Black Version and Life Updates

Hey folks! Sorry it's been awhile. Life got exceptionally busy these last few months. January was full of orchestra rehearsals and February I began student teaching! I've been really focused on getting through my last semester in college and becoming a certified teacher, yo.
That said, I have decided to start a new Nuzlocke on my Black version. I had started one on Crystal version a while back but the cartridge has been sort of nuts in terms of saved data so I decided to go with a more stable game and system. Regal has also started one but on SoulSilver!

We just started yesterday. I currently have a Tepig and a Purrloin on my team and just made it to the first town with a gym. I've named them Hamm and Jasmine, respectively. Regal is on his way through to the third town (also the first one with a gym). He has a Totodile and Hoothoot on his team so far (that's what he gets for starting at night lol)

Anyways, if things get interesting we will keep you posted.

Also, I drew you all a comic for "One is Silver" a LONG time ago and just haven't scanned it yet. I'll try and get it up soon.

"Encylcopedia of Dope" entry: Huge Awkward Institute of Reindeer (HAIR)

Redirected from evil reindeer

"That's Donner. Of all [the reindeer], he may be the cruelest, and definitely the most conniving..." -Pinocchio

The Huge Awkward Institute of Reindeer was a group of eight evil reindeer: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen.

I just finished watching Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt and this comic wrote itself.

Enjoy!

"Encylcopedia of Dope" entry: Piscientum

This photo of Piscientum was taken about 12 billion years ago, 

before he was impaled through his back by a flagpole.

Piscientum, AKA the Most Important Man in the Universe, AKA the Most Important Man EVER, is one of three guardians of the cosmos. Endowed with godlike powers, the guardians of the cosmos were created nearly a trillion years ago to administer the relations among various intelligent life and maintain the stability of the space-time continuum.

Happy saturday...?

It's saturday, and I completely forgot.
Please accept this short haiku as both a venting of my frustration with myself, and my expressive entry of the week.

"Oh Saturday,
I forgot you were coming.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck."
