Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 As Keldeo's pic says below, artist credit goes to Xous54. (He's a really good artist) Props to him for the stock pic that my Keldeo card in set 2 uses, but off-topic. Match ends 4/3 @ 10 pm HST (Esta batalla terminará a las 10 de la noche, Hora Estándar de Hawaiʻi) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 It was a choice between Spinda and Keldeo. Has to be Keldeo though... Spinda was such a forgettable Pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Voted Keldeo because of nomination and stuff. * Keldeo, voté para vos porque demonstrás la habilidad a luchar junto a tu compadres y con yo. A mí, sos un Pokémon especial y espero que continues a ser el luchador capable que he oído sobre en las leyendas. (Translation in English, and I said Keldeo would be the Spanish man this time) Keldeo, I voted for you because you demonstrate the ability to fight alongside your comrades and with me. To me, you're a special Pokémon and I hope that you continue to be the capable fighter that I've heard about in the legends. Or in other words, does very well in Showdown battles as a capable partner to my Eons and stuff. --- Essentially neutral/iffy on other three, so... Also, me choosing Keldeo DOES NOT mean that I watch "that" series. [spoiler=Secondary note about above (*)] I used the "voseo" when referring to Keldeo, so would be appropriate if I used the same form in the subjunctive (I used the general "tú" form in that case, because I only learned the indicative present of "vos" (or at least, that's what my professor in college mentioned regarding its usage; again he's from Argentina [like Mugen]) He did mention that there IS a subjunctive mood for it, but would be too much of a pain to memorize at the time. I'll need to ask him about how it's formed, though I can probably guess it follows the same pattern (minus stem changes and stuff, like I'd do for normal conjugations). BTW, "voseo" is pretty much a South American Spanish version of the 2nd person form; I'm using the Argentine form because it's standard and how I learned it. Suppose you can ask Mugen about this, given he lives there; or look it up on Wikipedia. [/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Don't particularly care for Spinda or Loudred, so my vote is between Rotom and Keldeo. My vote goes to Keldeo because I rolled a die (R odds, K evens) and the die result was 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Keldeo is leading, and for the record, I should probably translate the poll title. "Pony swordsman vs electric ghost vs swirl panda vs noise maker" (Ooh, I better correct that part in Spinda's description; swirl = remolino in Spanish, there's no extra L in there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 That must've hurt; which tier? To be fair, I really only care about Spinda as SpAtk training most of the time (and/or dex entries). Probably has more stuff that I'm overlooking, but meh. (Oh yeah, I vaguely remember getting somewhat creamed in PBR against one in Rentals; think I creamed it though after a while) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqx4ffYlIUA ^ this Keep in mind that the word requirement is still active. Just posting a Youtube video won't cut it anymore. Basically, just write a short thing about why you voted Spinda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 and I distinctly remember one game on Showdown where I got 6-0 swept by one. Was that me and Stumble? I can't remember. Anyway. Spinspinspinspinspin~ I. Love. Spinda. It's a cute drunk panda thing with many different patterns and so they're all unique and that's AWESOME. Plus Superpower Contrary is so cool. And like. It's cute. And spins. And I can't say enough about this thing, it's just one of my favorites and I WANT ONE IRL. Yaaay fanboying.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Spinda's in second place right now; only a vote away from the colt swordsman. And technically speaking, I somewhat mistranslated Keldeo's title earlier; potro technically means colt; not pony like I mentioned earlier. --- Then again, Spinda can probably make a comeback later on. In honesty though, I would've thought Rotom would be getting more votes by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethera Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I really love how the Spanish classes I took are mostly being used to translate things such as deviantART comics and Pokémon polls. Totally the reason I learned it. But voting Rotom. It's got a special place in my heart from a past RP and a nuzlocke run, though Keldeo comes very, very close as my favorite of the Musketeers. Edit: Forgot to mention Xous54. When I first discovered him way back, I thought his art was the official stuff. He's that good. I still use his pics for reference in drawing sometimes.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I did say Keldeo would be the Spanish man in this tournament, so makes sense. You'll probably see his Argentine Spanish later on in the 1v1 rounds; assuming survival here. Keldeo still leads, closely followed by Rotom.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Well, it appears that Keldeo finally found his redemption and got the power needed to get himself into round 2. Now, some IC. Keldeo: Finalmente! Con esta victoria, yo he escapado de la maldición de mis pérdidas en los preliminarios durantes los dos torneos pasados. Por favor, miranme; Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion y todos de mis compadres. Prometo en mi espada que usaré todos de mi poder y luchar con mi mejor para nuestra honra. Esperáme, maestro. Mi resolución no flaqueará en mi sirvicio para vos. (Finally! With this victory, I have escaped from the curse of my losses in the preliminaries during the last two tournaments. Please watch me, Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion and all of my comrades. I promise on my sword that I will use all of my power and fight for our honor. Wait for me, master. My resolution will not weaken in my service to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
