    sure. I lit just made this thread so I had somewhere to put all my achievements without overloading my signature (and I was having ridic trouble attaching links to both arbok and sableye at the same time fsr; at the time I incorrectly thought there was some limit to the amount of hyperlinks I could have in a sig).

    Hahaha! Yeah Light Yagami going "full crackhead" with the notebook! That was honestly one of the best endings to an anime I've ever seen. Not gonna give it away for anyone thinking of watching it but I don't like cliche endings; they should be dark and chilling just like this was.

    While we're on random anime clips I guess I'll put one up of that Tenjho Tenge I was going on about. Mods might wanna look at this to decide if it's OK to have on this page, it is pretty graphic, but such a great anime; not a lobotomised creation refined for the western taste; just a raw, detailed, violent series that to me echos the image of Japanese anime beautifully.

    I said mixed, not dual. Mixed STAB means one physical and one special.

    I did miss Omastar and Kabutops, though.

    Listing the legal level 5 Pokemon in RBY (this is according to Bulbapedia, so there may be an error or two):

    Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, Kakuna, Pidgey, Rattata, Spearow, Pikachu, Raichu, Nidorans, Jigglypuff, Mankey (Yellow only), Poliwag (Yellow only), Tentacool, Farfetch'd, Electrode, Horsea (Yellow only), Goldeen (Yellow only), Magikarp, Mew.

    I think you can also get Mr. Mime if you use the Japanese Blue.

    (Yes, Electrode. I'm serious. You take a Pikachu from Viridian Forest, evolve it into Raichu without levelling it up, then trade it for Electrode at Cinnabar Island.)

    So legal RBY LC would consist of 18 Pokemon, 3 of which (Caterpie, Weedle, Magikarp) are essentially useless due to movepool.

    EDIT: Forgot Wigglytuff.

    It gets worse when you consider legal movepools.

    Bulbasaur can't learn Sleep Powder or Razor Leaf, Charmander can't learn Slash or Fire Spin, and Squirtle can't learn Hydro Pump for some examples.

    I think when we get to RBY LC, we should either account for moves that can't be learned after level 5 by assuming it's using tradebacks from GSC with only their default moves (so no Egg/Event/GSC TM moves) to bring them as close to legal RBY as possible, or be Tradeback only so it's not an issue.
