Maybe a little. But you do have to remember I started with a full team of six. Plus Skarmory and Miltank both have much higher base stats than normal for that point of the game. And while I turned the EXP Share off at around level 30 (the Champion’s Pokemon were all higher level than mine), I used the same team throughout the entire game, so all exp earned was centralized on them and I only had to Super Train six Pokemon. I also didn’t spend much time in the Battle Chateau.
Not like I’m done yet either. Presently I’m leveling a Dratini I caught to turn it into Dragonite and teach it HMs to free up move slots on my team. I still need to catch the three post-game legendaries and at least unlock all the TMs and stat boosting items in the Battle Mansion.
Although… I’m still throwing around the idea of restarting. After looking some stuff up, the berries aren’t such a huge deal. I can’t seem to find much use for money so buying all the TMs over again shouldn’t matter. So I’d really just need to find somepony to trade Pokemon holding mega evolution stones to, and then trade back. Possibly a few expensive BP items like Life Orb too.
Golly, that does sound pretty involving. Glad you and your family are feeling better.
Oh! You don’t know about super training? It’s a minigame that lets you build up the specific EVs that you want. It’s pretty time consuming (one to two hours per pokemon) but for early game (before you can get the proper supplies) it’s unbeatable in convenience. Speaking of which, I beat the game last night! Haven’t started the post game stuff yet, but I clocked in at around fifty hours. I was going to play through it three times, but I found out you can’t trade items through the Pokebank so I’d have to start all over again with finding all the hidden items and berry types if I reset. So forget that.
And a job! That’s great! Sorry that you don’t like it. Hope you at least get a chance to make some money! Heaven knows I could use some…
I’ve never seen Game Grumps either, despite the picture. But I don’t watch let’s plays.
Oh, and my apologies to Twilight regarding the last post about the weather. Though she did totally miscalculate, making the blizzard necessary, she helped plan for it to be during a warmer period so the snow is mostly gone now.
Thanks for the well-wishes, though!

No. I’m pretty sure mine looks like an oval with tubes sticking out of it.
Not at all like a fanny.
It says “choo choo” and it has a picture of a train on it!
Aw! Thank you! I think this is the first time I’ve gotten a Hearts and Hooves day card since I was in primary school.
Wasn’t this from The Simpsons?
Well, it’s actually a difficult subject to touch upon. I don’t have any hard evidence one way or another.
You know the theories regarding parallel dimensions? Well, I don’t think they’re parallel. I think they curve into one another and ponies and events get mixed together! There’s the Scootaloo that left of course, but Sweetie Belle is another good example. Some days she recognizes me; other days she genuinely has no idea who I am.

You may recall me mentioning that Twilight did some work for the weather team. Well, the whole story is that she grossly miscalculated and now the weather team is having to pull a friggin’ blizzard!
Ponyville gets its power from Canterlot, so what I’m basically saying is, I might lose power. Might not too, just in case.
1) Yeah… Scootaloo almost dying from alcohol poisoning at a party I threw isn’t exactly one of my fondest memories.
I do miss that Scootaloo, though. But the current one is pretty cool too! Ah… multiple tenuously intersecting dimensions are weird.
But hey! Thanks for the message! You’ve clearly been around for a while! (Sorry if I should recognize you.)
2) No. I mean, some ponies might not mind getting a little dirty, but I don’t know any that love being covered in mud.
Did I say love? I meant like. That’s what you said anyway.

1) Bon-Bon: Well, thank you but they always got in the way.
B: Hate to break this to you, but somepony already tried the whole puppy thing. Doomed to failure from the start, of course. But as far as ludicrous conquest plans go, it wound up being quite threatening. Before it was all over they completely took over Hoofington; and the population there didn’t even know it.
2) Yes. In fact, there’s quite a few ponies that look nearly identical to one another. Strange phenomenon that has something to do with near-perfect genetic match-ups going back to common ancestors.
I was at the royal wedding. But during the attack I spent most of my time running around the streets trying to get ponies to safety. She told me about it after the fact, but Professor Lyra (inactive) was mind-controlled.
Older followers might remember that Professor Lyra was the one that gave Krastos his present home in Ponyville, after she moved to Canterlot.
Spike: I know how this is going to end. Not even sweatin’ it.

asklyra asked: When you're eating dinner, do you eat each portion separately, take a little of each, or mix them all up?
the word sounds familiar…i know it does….
Okay okay. I wasn’t really expecting you to be able to make this funny. But you totes did.
Kudos.

1) Sorry. Force of habit; what with Bon-Bon’s hyphen.
But no, seriously. Who looks at their newborn and says “Oh what a sexy baby. We should give him a name to accent his sexiness.”
That’s like, awful, unfortunate, and creepy all at once.
2) Bon-Bon: Hello, dear.
3) Pretty wild. I mean, when you hear somepony go by the title “super duper party pony” you just think, “Yeah right, dude.” But that colt has got some connections to pull off the craziness he does. That birth-iversary was jumpin’ on into the sunrise. I don’t know that Princess Cadance’s wedding had as much going on. And that had a sizable budget!
Mad props to both Cheese and Pinkie.
My little ponies, I love Erin!
She’s, like, awesome! She’s like this quick-witted, bad[omitted] I wish I was!
