uhhh no you get an egg given to you when you do a mandatory dungeon. ...What? I apologize if I'm wrong here, but I remember having to help a trainer called Riley at Iron Island (which isn't mandatory, at least in D/P) to get a Riolu egg. --- "Here I go!

IIRC
in DP, Iron Island was completely skipable. In Platinum, you had to go
there briefly. Either way, Lucario is far from being front and center
in the game. I think Lucario just happened to been chosen to be in a
lot of promotional material. --- "Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..." "All dreams are but another reality. Never forget..." |

Lucario
was definitely optional in the games. However, he was the character
most featured before the games came out and got the first D/P movie
based on him. --- Demyx is better than Axel. |

LeonhartFour | Posted 1/30/2010 10:40:23 PM | message detail |
I'd be very surprised if he managed a cut. He can just hope to get this thing down to about 62-64% and not look quite so bad. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |

LeonhartFour | Posted 1/30/2010 10:43:23 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #262 Yeah, but it's easier to go down than up. I doubt Charizard gets it back up over 64% if the Duke brings it down to 63% or less. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |

At 1:30 AM, Revolver had 48.01% on Red. At the end of the match, Revolver had 49.83%. At 1:30 AM, Duke has 33.32% on Charizard...so the big scaly dragon's got a good chance to keep above 64%. The following were just short of finishing with 64%: L-Block against HK-47, night Bowser against Frog, day Sora against Midna, night Sonic against Lightning, night Compare as you will. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

34.68% hour for Duke, and he should start doing better from here. Ocelot didn't start really coming back until right around now. --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |

Okay,
so Charizard's definitely a midcarder. This type of performance
actually gives him a good chance to the division finals. It depends on
how Kratos does later today. But man, Duke, I had him originally in my bracket. After impressing the heck out of us in the 4-ways, he flops hard here. --- The Gamer In Me My Signature's broken, just like your front door. |

At this point I think Charizard will have a clear win over Kratos. Sora is in trouble(yes, not bowser)... --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |
LinkMarioSamus | Posted 1/31/2010 3:30:23 AM | message detail |
I
find it funny to think that Kefka was the 5 seed and Duke the 10 seed
in this division, plus that Niko is an 8 seed in another division while
Marth is a 16 seed in another division when you consider who beat who. Charizard looks like a beast now, but it could just be that Duke falls in line with Master Chief/Arthas in being better in the 4-way format. Bad news for Freeman. |
Lopen | Posted 1/31/2010 3:33:57 AM | message detail |
Yeah
Duke wasn't really all that impressive in 4 ways. Anyone who picked
Duke to do well here was skeptical of Charizard I'd have to hope. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Looks like Duke didn't even do that much overnight. Charizard still lookin' good. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
Lightning Strikes | Posted 1/31/2010 5:03:57 AM | message detail |
Looks
like Duke's another guy who's much weaker 1 on 1. Which makes sense for
the apparent discrepancies with his earlier performances. |
Iamthekuzalol | Posted 1/31/2010 5:11:54 AM | message detail |
The
morning vote is starting now, look like Charizard might even hit 65% at
this rate. Kratos/Charizard should be one of the most anticipated match
next round. --- Snake's Mission "To make it to the finals for the fourth consecutive times" |
charmander6000 | Posted 1/31/2010 5:33:54 AM | message detail |
Not
sure if it was because of what he was getting at night, but there's a
lot of Charizard overestimation. I say Frog/Midna would defeat Duke,
though Charizard is a contender for this division. At least the winner
of Kratos/Charizard would defeat HK-47. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 22/30 - Today's Winners: Charizard and Kratos |

Not_Wylvane | Posted 1/31/2010 5:54:42 AM | message detail |
Looking
at past polls, and... Kratos actually doesn't impress me too much. Less
than 60% on Jill on round 1 and 63% on Jill in Round 2? Couldn't beat a
SFFed Auron? Getting close to doubled by 2008 Sonic? Hell, he only got
53% on Riku. I really need to actually look at past matches next time I do my bracket. He's much weaker than I remembered him to be. Charizard won't have problems beating that. --- Not Wylvane |
charmander6000 | Posted 1/31/2010 5:59:00 AM | message detail |
The
board seems to be banking on a boost from GoW3. I would rank him at
just below Leon, so he's no Sora/Bowser that's for sure. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 22/30 - Today's Winners: Charizard and Kratos |
