Couldn't Resist

[Locke]

Thank ye.

 

As I was saying..... Oh, I wasn't saying anything....

[mmeeshal]

Maybe something to do with bananas?

[bad company]

This isn't fiddles though

[mmeeshal]

Doesn't have to be, ma friend.

[Locke]

I choose YOU, Pikachu!

[mmeeshal]

*cough*go, Graveler*cough*

[Locke]

Errr... Is that some sort of pokemon? 

 

Like dirt or rock?

[mmeeshal]

Yuppers, it's Ground/Rock type.  Evolved form of Geodude.

 

You know, a few years ago, the Pokemon names started making me laugh.

Some of 'em are cool, but others are kind of obvious.

 

Geodude--"geo" earth.  So, "earth dude," which is pretty accurate because it's rock/ground type.

 

Charmander--char references its Fire type (a substance that has been burnt or scorched), and "mander" is from "salamander"

Charmeleon--char, and chameleon

Charizard--char, and lizard

 

Oh, my favorites were:

 

Ekans-- "Snake" backward

Arbok-- "Kobra" or cobra, backward (both are snakelike pokemon)

 

*shakes head*  I think ANYONE could name a Pokemon. :D

[bad company]

Not the latest ones, they got crazy after crystal

[Locke]

Lol :D

 

I know nothing about pokemon.  I know there's Pikachu and that's about it.

 

Alucard is Dracula backwards.  Dekker has to tie everything is so explicitly ::) :D
