What's to hate about N? He's got a sad back story... and he pretty much got Marty Stu status. Okay, I kind of see where you're coming from. He's still one of the greatest handheld Pokémon characters IMO.

Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must be Special Summoned by it's own effect. You can send 1 Gemini Monster in your hand to the graveyard; Special Summon this card (from your hand) While face-up on the field and in the Graveyard: This card is treated as a Normal Monster. While face-up on the field: You can Normal Summon this card; It is treated as a Normal Monster with the following effect:

*Once per turn: You can attach 1 Monster in your Graveyard to this card (Max. 1). This card gains the effect of the Monster attached to it. If this card would leave the field: You can detach 1 Monster attached to this card instead.

Bit of an experimentation.

I've also been wanting to make a Spirit support Field Spell based off the Yomotsu Hirasaka legend, but have been failing a bit.

@CVD: Well, looks good, I can't tell much aside though really, and the OCG Max might need to look at, but it don't seem overpowered, so its good IMO...

 

@Anyone Here:

 

This is my first ever custom made sig, and its probably horrible, but I want some crits, if to many, I'll have to just make a new one, as I can't copy/repeat on gimp yet...Anyhow, opinions on it please?

The problem I have with him; is his grand design is a total mess. His view that Pokemon would be better seperated from humans is completely wrong. It's as simple as comparing my bred Axew with one of its parents. At Level 37, the one I had raised from Level 1 had almost 20 more Attack and Speed points, and a good dozen in the other categories. Its moveset was also superior, because of TMs. In addition, without humans Pokemon who require happiness, stones or locations to evolve cannot. And because of TMs and breeding, Pokemon have access to a wide array of moves they could not naturally learn, making them better.

 

The extreme example is Ninetales. If left to its own devices, it firstly wouldn't evolve from Vulpix, but would know a mixture of Fire, Normal and Ghost moves. If bred correctly, you can have it knowing Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Extrasensory and Ominous Wind. Only through the artificial selection has it learnt a move that can counter its weaknesses. There is no other way for it to gain that moveset.

 

N can't also seem to see that he is wrong; even when confronted with evidence that sinks his theory. After you beat Skyla, he 'talks' to your lead Pokemon, and notes that it enjoys your company and is happy fighting alongside you. And yet, he still decides to go ahead with his plan, despite having seen Cheren's, Bianca's and probably countless other trainers' Pokemon glad to be with their trainer. And as for his backstory, he is basically a puppet who doesn't realise it. I'll admit that that is quite tragic; but it also makes him a moron for never questioning his situation or forming his own ideals. He has been manipulated from day one by Gthetis, and he is yet to realise; despite several things staring him in the face that would betray that fact.

 

But...I would forgive that if the big boss was interesting. However, he is not. He is both a standard Bond villain, but almost as stupid as N.

OCG Fix: Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must first be Special Summoned by its own effect. You can send 1 Geminin Monster from your hand to the Graveyard: Special Summon this card (from your hand). This card on the field and in the Graveyard is treated as a Normal Monster: During your Main Phase, you can Normal Summon this card; It is treated as an Effect Monster, and gains the following effect:

* Once per turn: You can attach 1 monster in your Graveyard to this card (Max. 1); This card gains the effect of the attached monster. If this card would leave the field: You can detach the attached monster instead.

 

I would knock the ATK and DEF down a bit, considering it is very easy to Summon in a FIRE Gemini Deck, a heavy beatstick and a beautiful set-up for "Nova Master". [send "Neos Alius" to Summon -> Gemini Summon -> Attach "Neos Alius" -> Fuse -> Re-Summon] Other than that, it also has more ATK and DEF than "Chthonian Emperor", which is considered the upper limit of one-Tribute Gemini Monsters. I would also make it limited to either Gemini or Insect-Type monsters, since that would tie it in a bit more with those strategies.

 

Note: If I remember correctly, it would also work too well with "Inzectors", since they aren't fussy about names, just Types and Levels. I may be wrong, but bear that in mind.

Why is it Yami and Luna? I'm just curious as to the connection.

@Max: Yami Yugi is the deck I supposedly should use from 5 different yugioh personality tests, thing is, What Deck does Yami Yugi use, is my wonder...and Luna is just my Favorite Character, but it might fit into the story if think about it, yugi see's his spirit yami and kuriboh and Luna can see all the spirit monsters, but other then that, no real reason, just like it...

Thanks Max....

 

And lv 60 pokemon, yea, unless its the last gym or something....

 

They were more than enough for the last gym and most of the Pokemon League, but they're now far too weak(!) Once you complete the main story, all the Pokemon you face jump at least 10 Levels, so now I'm facing wild Lv.50 Venomoths and trained Lv.64 Hypnos. As such, I am level-grinding to Lv.85, just to make sure I maintain the advantage.

 

 

On a side note, I've just totted up the amount I've spent on buying the five "Meklord Emperors" over a while. Overall, they were just under £13 ("Wisel" £2.56, "Skiel" £3.21, "Grannel" £3.03, "Mekanikle" £2.52, and "Asterisk" 15p + plus shipping), about $20. However, if I had bought them in Britain through Amazon, I would have forked out almost £51 ($80)! I can only explain this through the American market for YuGiOh either being much, much larger than Britain's (a fair assumption), or that American import and export duties are very low, allowing them to easily sell in bulk.

 

Skylie, can you shed any light on this?

@Max: One word for american shops and all that sell.....

 

GREEDY, GREEDY, and POWER...

 

Literally, all of your Awesome Sales makes me want to pretend I'm in britain.....lol......Oh well, at least some of the stuff american made stuff is decent....i bought a watch from japan, and it stopped and broke within less then a week....Then I bought USA watch, granted it was more expensive, it actually survived me for 10 years, but I can only wear watches during the winter b/c I sweat way to much and get a swaet rash and starts hurt and etc.....

 

------

 

But on the side not,

 

Power, Greed, and Insanity for lots of people......

 

So, if says made in America, it is probably really good quality, but it will be expensive to, but maybe worth it....

...Not quite the insight I was looking for, but it does answer some questions. If people are more likely to buy, sellers can risk lower prices because there is more chance of large amounts of stock shifting. ie, they make a small amount less profit per item, but they sell more.

Well, you did ask and you probably did get the wrong answers, but it is pretty much the truth....And yes, i know how bulk selling works Max, I was in a business class in highschool for 3 years, granted that only 1 year was officially business and the next 2 was website designing and entrepuenuering or however you say that....,

 

[spoiler=Walmart]

Walmart has a different, more worse technique, lets just say they are a*holes....

 

Walmart has it where, okay, like this....

 

Walmart lets them sell the product, but only under the price which walmart can do.....

 

Product - 500 dollars

Walmart - Nah, 400 or no thanks.

Product - But but, but, alright(B/c the guy knows that if he don't, walmart will just find a different products)

Walmart, Good, starts selling them for 300 to 400 dollars

 

Walmart makes a profit, but the company does not.....

 

----

 

I watched a documentary on Walmart, sure its bad, but it has its good to...

 

Reason to state about Walmart is probably going to answer your question, Amaon is one of places don't actually rip the product sellers off, so why things are so expensive, and plus Amazon also has idiotic yugioh sellers thinking they will get 80 bucks for an E-Hero Sparkman and yet they sooner or later will get it b/c there is bound to be some online shopper going to buy it....

 

 

 

Not sure how website designing was business, but I didn't care, it was with a teacher I liked, so i was happy there.....

I wasn't refering to bulk sales; but was wondering whether American customers are more likely to buy something if they go into a shop than their European counterparts. If they are, then it would even out the risk of selling for less money.

 

What I have noticed which is quite interesting, is the slow drop in prices of Extreme Victory cards as time has gone on. The high-Level "T.G.s", "Skiel" and the Secret Rares all started at around $10 ("Skiel" reaching $22 at one point), but now because of Xyzs, and the realisation of the limited useage of Accel Synchros, "Meklord Emperors" and the support introduced in EXVC, they've all dropped to beneath $5. In fact, "Halberd Cannon" in Ultimate Rare print is now less than $1.

Oh, okay, I didn't know there were european counterparts of shops....hmm.....I'm not the populus, but I do know this, if it is cheaper to go into this shop with the same items then other shops, they will more likely go into it and buy....

 

So, why lots of people shop in Walmart.....

 

So, if the european shops are cheaper, no doubt that I'd go to it if its english....

 

------------

 

Anyhow, if that is still not what you are wanting to know, then I'm proly not understanding and can't answer it, sorry...

I'll rephrase the question:

 

"When an American goes into a shop (ie not a big store), are they very likely to buy something, or are they more likely to browse first and then come back at a later date and buy something? Is there more impulse buying in America?"

@Max: Definitely the latter of the situation unless it is on sale......more likely to browse then buy later....Thats what i normally do anyhow.....

 

I aslo like to go to stores and mess around, meaning push in the boxes, swap them around, and etc....small stuff, but still fun and hilarious....

And right now, I'm trying to find away on halo reach to get me to shoot up to the eclipse ranking.....
