And by then...you'll have TWO spoons. TWO full spoons! Imagine that!
Don't worry, I'm still a fan. 😉 It's just so funny how a gym leader acts like that.
Joining the club, hoping I get to evolve into the closest to a Blue Devil pokemon I can think of!
100/100 👍
Give this man a medal!!
P.S. Your location will have to be Mahogany Town
Oh man, Magikarp is like the premed's spirit animal...pretty ineffectual and no fun at parties, but big dreams and a chance at a badass future if they can swing the training!
I... never played past Yellow/Blue/Red, but I'll take Mahogany Town, sure!
Rather than write my secondary, I just spent the last hour looking through last year's Duke thread starting March 1st... let's just hope we don't go through the same mess they did 😀
Lol look at these official Pokedex entries:
"For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like Pidgeotto to catch it mid-jump."
"Magikarp is a pathetic excuse for a Pokémon that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it."
"It is virtually worthless in terms of both power and speed. It is the most weak and pathetic Pokémon in the world."
"It is said to be the world's weakest Pokémon. No one knows why it has managed to survive."
"A Magikarp living for many years can leap a mountain using Splash. The move remains useless, though."
Pichu isn't 1st generation 😉

Well this certainly makes me feel better about my chances, lol
Original 151 or bust!
though...
...this is pretty funny. I would've just thought it was a stylized Pikachu myself.
I mean, we are the Magikarps of the medical world right now. Gyarados all come from somewhere, though...just takes one person willing to put in the effort to train 'em up! Hope yours is Duke!
Just keep swimming, my friend. Just keep swimming.
OMG OMG
I'LL PAY MONEY IF SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT POKEMON IN THEIR SECONDARY (there must be proof). 😛

Hey if you are going to have a cat avatar, you gotta go Meowth now.
Loving the positivity here, guys!
UVM: The most difficult decision I have ever made was: Charmander, Bulbasaur, or Squirtle?
Last cycle was all penguins thanks to the Penguin Queen @ProbablyAPenguin starting the movement in the Duke application thread.
This cycle is all Pokemon thanks to the Pokemon Master @phuynh94 starting the movement in the Duke application thread.
Duke sure has the tendency to be the birthplace of all applicant movements each cycle

It breaks people down with its monster secondary, then they cast around seeking some form of solidarity to rebuild themselves...Last cycle was all penguins thanks to the Penguin Queen @ProbablyAPenguin starting the movement in the Duke application thread.

I think I should get some credit for starting to tell other people to do it first!!Last cycle was all penguins thanks to the Penguin Queen @ProbablyAPenguin starting the movement in the Duke application thread.

Yeah that secondary has got to do something with this.
That's true. In that case, @phuynh94 and @avgn are co-Pokemon Champions (since we need two more to be Elite Four and I'm too lazy to find others).
The Duke school-specific thread for 2015-2016... aka SDN's Pokemon Anonymous thread. 😛
I agree, you mentioned it to me and I thought what the hell.

Haha I'm in 😛
So fitting with the username!!
Haha you're so traditional! Using the original sprite from the games 😛
K guys... GO WEEDLE!!!! Use sting on dratini!!
Dratini, use Twister!!
It's cool. I'm keeping mine also.
I love pokemon. But......gotta stick to my roots. Mario all the way.
That time when you use a level 100 Caterpie against the elite 4
Weedle fainted🙁
Did you purposely stunt its growth by not letting it evolve? That's...borderline animal abuse 🙁
OMG I just realized your location says blackthorn city lol
Wow, these essay prompts are challenging. And fun to write. I'm slightly concerned about my word counts, but they didn't give us limits and these questions are pretty deep, probing, and multifaceted. Got the first draft of them done in one sitting somehow. Now just need to find a few unsuspecting friends to edit them for me. Good luck to everyone still writing them!
Get a Pokemon avatar! It'll make the essay writing easier! 😀

@HybridEarth Exeggcute is all yours! In due time you will become Exeggcutor as you wish 
So close to being done with this beast.
That's 2 Pokemon you're talking about. Abra evolves into Kadabra
