    Oh yes, definately true, if you mean them speaking "1337".

    They were taken over by those Shroobs, which kind of... messed with them.
    An interesting and clever parody/tribute to 1337 speak.

    Poor Courage... No votes. :(

    I'd have to say all of them are best, because they are equally divided... but if one is teamed against (such as Wisdom and Courage vs. Power), obviously the stand-alone one will fall. I don't care how much Wisdom you have, how Courageous you are, or how Powerful you seem, you'll fall when teamed up against. We've all seen it with Ganon/dorf time and again.

    Shrukan: You have to get your Friend Code first... To get your FC, you have to first log on to the WFC... It will automatically give you it once you do so.

    I'll leave this here for future reference:

    Once you get your WFC (and have it installed and everything), on your Pokemon Diamond/Pearl, head to the Main Menu of the game -- Where it says "CONTINUE", "NEW GAME", (possibly) "MYSTERY GIFT", and "NINTENDO WFC SETTINGS".
    Click "NINTENDO WFC SETTINGS".
    Once there, you'll see (on the bottom screen) Options, and Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Settings. Click NWFCS.
    When you click it, you'll see three boxes -- labeled "Connection 1", "- 2", and "- 3", and at the bottom, you'll see "Connect to your Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector".

    There are two options at this point:
    1) If you have Wi-Fi activated for your internet, click on "Connection 1". When you do, click "Search for Access Point". It should automatically find an access point for you, and should test your connection. Click OK and exit once all of that is finished.

    2) If you have a USB WFC, click "Connect to your Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector". It should say to have your WFC installed by this point, and if it is, click OK. Then it will search for your WFC... When it does, on the bottom right-hand corner of your laptop/computer (next to where the time is located), you'll see a small blue sphere with a tiny label: "Wi-Fi". Double click on that (or right click, "Run Nintendo WFC Registration Tool"), and it should open to a simple menu that shows what users are connected to the WFC, or who has connected in the past. If you have NEVER connected to the WFC, your name (it depends on what you called yourself in your Nintendo DS options; your name is visible when you first turn on your NDS, and is located on the top screen at the top left-hand corner) will appear. Right click on your name, and click "Grant Permission to Connect".
    -*Note: If on your NDS, it says that it couldn't connect to your WFC, try again. It couldn't connect because you didn't Grant Access to yourself originally.
    Once you've Granted Permission, it should say connection was successful, and it will run a test. Do so. After all that, it should say test was successful, and you can exit.

    #2 is a lot easier done than said. It only looks long, trust me. :P

    @spiff: I have an Action Replay, so I was able to tap into my game and activate the Events... Call me a cheater. :P
    But as for one of my Darkrai, I actually got it via Wi-Fi. It's a special Japanese-only Darkrai, that knows Spatial Rend and Roar of Time. Pretty nifty moves.

    Yes, Serebii.net helps out a LOT when it comes to Pokemon Diamond/Pearl...

    I got the game the day it came out, April 22nd, and I must say it has retained its addictiveness... Then again, since when have the RPG-styled Pokemon games NOT been addicting?

    There are 493 of the little buggers now, as Shrukan pointed out, but no new types (yet).
    However, the Pokemon "creator" has finally been recognized in this game... and it's not Mew...

    Whichever game you pick, Diamond or Pearl, does not effect the story drastically... The only differences between the games are which Pokemon are obtainable in which (such as the Water/Dragon Palkia is exclusive in Pearl, and the Steel/Dragon Dialga is exclusive to Diamond).

    I've beaten the game, defeated the Elite Four a couple dozen times, and I'm currently into Wi-Fi Battles... I've managed to complete the Sinnoh and National Dex (yes, that means captured all 493 Pokemon o_o ), so all that's left for me is training and the contests. My card is a Gold Card with 4 stars. I just need one more star to officially "complete" the game, and obtain a Black Card... To do this, however, I must defeat the dreaded contests (which I lack the talent of beating; I depend highly on my sister for these).

    This has been my second longest played Pokemon game... though it is far from beating the record I hold on my Pokemon Silver (a whopping 330-400 hours playtime total, until it reset itself).

    ...Whew. :P

    Shrukan: I can trade you a Pachirisu, and possibly a Darkrai, if you like.

    I enjoyed being Young... as it was how you started out in your adventure.

    But, I'd have to go with Adult. He's given a lot more options for defense/attack (arrows, mirror shield, extra tunics)... and BIGGORON SWORD! Can take out enemies in two hits!... or so. Depends. Young Link? What would normally take 2 for Biggorn or 4 for Master, would take about 8 or so with Kokiri Sword... Eesh.

    A Broken Pact...

    ...
    ...

    There are points in my life when I reminisce, and regret things I have done in my past.
    There are times when I, the Prince of Darkness, need some shoulder... to lean upon.
    And there are moments when I feel a need of justice is to be executed, for a crime committed against one who committed nothing.

    I was in a blind rage...

    After my Master told me of the She-Darkrai being His creation to "test" me, He also told me about Shadow Master Giratina being in His plans to "test" my allegiance. Cresselia was also included.
    Palkia and Dialga were with my Master at this point, but neither said a word to me. It was as if I... did not exist. They mocked me in their eyes, seeing how insignificant I have become, crumbling apart to the pressures of emotion...

    After the Trio left me, I set it upon myself to extract my revenge.

    I would start on the one I considered a "friend."
    Giratina.

    I entered Turnback Cave. Without a forewarning, without any reason at all.
    And I met with him in his dwelling place, deep within said Turnback.

    He was not pleased. Not pleased at all.
    He said there was no excuse for myself to go barging into other Pokemon's homes without a valid reason.
    I said that my reason was plain: he used me, and I was only giving him a piece of my Manevolent Mind. As he disliked his Cave being entered, I disliked being used by him.
    And to think I... actually trusted the Shadow Master.

    I trusted him.

    Upon leaving back to my Newmoon, my head still not on straight, I was attacked... by none other than the Shadow Master himself. He dealt a successful Shadow Force on me... But just because I have a certain immunity towards it does not mean it did not deal much damage.
    One might say it... gave my senses a jolt they so thoroughly needed.

    I faced the Shadow Master. His eyes were ablaze in a terrifying fury, and his Dark Aura was flowing strongly. So much so, I could not approach him without shivering in... fear.
    The Shadow Master made his own intentions for being on my Newmoon clear: He was finished with our Pact. We were now Mortal Enemies, and it was his turn to let off some steam. He had told me, time and again, that I was to never approach him unannounced... even if he once did consider me his "friend."

    But before he could begin his slaughter (as I was weak, due to it being a night before the Full Moon), who else to appear before me than Cresselia. My own Mortal Enemy.
    She managed to block off Giratina's Slash, and attempted to console the enraged Shadow Master.
    But it was no use.
    He was much too blinded by his own rage to see how he overreacted. He did, however, give Cresselia a chance to flee his Devastating Rage. But, Cresselia stood her ground... guarding me.

    To sum up what happened next, Cresselia was beaten down by the Shadow Master. Ruthlessly. By the time he had finished with Her, She could hardly levitate a few inches off the ground. It was the night before the Full Moon... and still, She did not stand a chance...
    The Shadow Master, now content with letting off his anger on someone, simply vanished with these words in mind: Next time, I would not be so lucky...

    I did not speak to Cresselia after the Shadow Master departed. I left Her to wallow in Her own pain, whilst I recovered from my own pains... For once, when She was weakest, I did not take advantage of Her. I only cast her a... glance... A glance... and left Her be.

    Before She took to Her Fullmoon, She said She was... sorry... for using me. She said She did not want to, but that the Master insisted. She could not go against our Master's words...
    I told her to leave me be, and that I never... NEVER... wanted to see Her face again.

    Did She really think I would be grateful to Her for saving my life?
    Does She really understand how it feels to be Hated by Everyone? To be HATED... by Everything?
    When will She understand that I would have rather let the Shadow Master tear me to shreds...

    I had nothing more to live for. I had honestly hoped... the Shadow Master were to finish me off...
    My Master decieved me... My Master... My merciful... powerful... Great Master... used me...

    I know nothing else that could be as disgraceful... or as painful... as this.

    ...I have grown soft... It has been written all over me, written all over my actions, my words... since the day the She-Darkrai arrived, and the day she disappeared...

    ...I will...

    ...be taking this time to break... from here. The memories... are too much for me at the moment...

    Even my Dark Heart needs some time to... collect its bearings... and move on.

    My Pact has been broken...
    I have lost an invaluable partner...
    My Master has used me...
    and my Dark Heart...

    has been shattered...


    ((Thus ends this season, and I will be taking a break to get some more entries made. It will take place a while after these events, similar to how the first season ended and started a month later.
    See you all then.))

    ^ Yes, unfortunately for Roy. He was only in Smash Bros. Melee to promote an upcoming Fire Emblem game in Japan... As for Marth, he has had some major roles in the Fire Emblem series (being the only one in the history of the Fire Emblem series to be the main character in more than one game).

    Oh, and upon further investigation, Ike and Marth are NOT related. They just look the same, as Roy and his father Eliwood do (which is understandable, as Roy is the son of Eliwood, but Ike and Marth have no relations whatsoever).
