@ hothead -> Thanks! It's always nice to see that people enjoys your work ^^ I hope that when plot begins to thicken I can just handle it as efficiently.
Well... As for Ignis, they grow up so fast...<3
I pretty much have planned a Charmander x Nidoran pairing in case I managed to catch a Nido, since Nidoran line (both genders) are able to breed with all three Kanto starters (and both Johto and Hoenn starters but that doesn't matter right now...), and it seems to be quite a popular "trend" in Kanto based story nuzlockes (however it's pretty much bulbasaur x nido).
I was originally planning to make it more like a romantic bonding, but that would clash with what I have planned for Knux once he becomes a Nidoking... I can't imagine a Nidoking acting all cute and innocent after all.
@ Oersted -> HEY! You're telling that if like Glenn was the only one who ever hugged a Nidoran...
Now seriously, Glenn's reaction is actually quite understandable taking into consideration these points:
-Male Nidorans are rare on route 3 (They're the third rarest catch in Fire Red for that route (the second in Leaf Green, since the appearance ratio between both Nidoran switch on both versions))
-Dupe clause... Before seeing that Nidoran I stumbled upon two Pidgeys before, one more Pidgey and I wouldn't have been able to catch anything there (I was planning on posting the three Pidgey shots in a row and Sonic 1's Game Over tune in case a third Pidgey showed up)
-In Gen III Male Nidoran line's moveset pretty much sucks, meaning that by the time it learns the first "decent" move (Horn Attack)I can pretty much evolve it, so I can get a Nidoking early in the story...
-...Which is both badass (Soloing Lt.Surge with a Nidoking? Hell yeah <3) and a blessing (Nidokings are quite bulky and probably the only member on my team able to survive a selfdestruct early in the game at the very least).
However "meta"talking I'm not that pleased with that catch though, his nature is crappy for a Nidoking (lowers defense, ups speed) yet fitting for the person he's based on...
Thanks for dropping by ^^
.P.S.: I'll try to have Mt.Moon covered by tonight.
