    Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

     

    Raskolnikov murders the Pawnbroker and her sister, only to be quickly tracked down and apprehended by Batman during his state of delirium. Because of this, he fails to meet Sonya and thusly never finds love or redemption. He grows to be a bitter, defeated man while imprisoned in Siberia. He never overcomes his nihilism.

     

    Probably a less meaningful story this way.

     

    Are you the worst fanfic writer ever?

    I wouldn't go that far.

     

    Can you tell I'm running out of ideas?

    Just a little bit.

    Halloween!

    On the 31st I'll actually be in a hotel at the airport (travelling to Singapore in the morning), but maybe I can watch a few movies on my phone.. any excuse to watch horror movies! Any recommendations? Maybe something a bit more obscure.. I've seen most of the major ones e.g. Halloween, Friday 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street etc.

     

    [REC] (2007), Session 9 (2001), The Conjuring (2013), Let the Right One In (2008), The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007), The Descent (2007), Audition (1999).

     

    Tried to spread those out for different tastes and flavors.

     

    EDIT: Oh, and Dream Home (2010). Without a doubt my favorite slasher of the last decade.

    I think IVs should remain untouched due to the fact that they're considered pokemon genetics, they can't be changed, each pokemon has unique IVs and they're impossible to manipulate. But i also do enjoy a good set of full IVs which this game allows of course. If i'm not mistaken i read that the legendaries Yveltal and Xerneas both have at least one stat with 31 IVs

     

    Yeah, that's true. They do make each Pokemon "unique," it's just a pain in the ass to breed for a decent IV spread and damn near impossible to breed for  specific hidden-power type without manipulating the RNG or just resorting to PokeSAV/GEN.

    True that, it's the only explanation, so far there's only been 3 legendaries introduced and there's usually more per game, though i hope they don't add a ton of them like they did in gen 5, 2 or 3 the most.

     

    You think so? I think the most annoying part about the old EV training system was, most new users didn't know about it. You couldn't really check how many EVs your pokemon had and how close you were to the limit. You basicaly had to keep track of everything and although using the items was quicker, resetting the stats was extremly difficult if you wanted to re-train your pokemon. Though i'll agree the minigames get repetitive, the actual super training regime allows me to keep much better track of all my pokemon's EVs and if i want to i can just reset them.

     

    Yeah, I could get something fully EV-trained in under an hour in B/W2. With the aid of EV training tools (like http://zero456.com/ev-counter/) to keep track of EVs, it was mainly just a mindless chore. I could watch netflix as I was doing it. Super training has required more attention from me so far. Or atleast, requires me to do more than glance at the screen every now and then.

     

    But yeah, I agree the old way is unintuitive. New users only interested in playing the main game probably wouldn't know about it, but if you spent any amount of time around the competitive battling community, it'd be pretty apparent. 

     

    I just wished they changed IVs in some way. I'm very glad Pokemon from the friend Safari comes with at least one perfect stat IV, though.

    I definitely think there's going to be some event legendaries. I would be *really* surprised if there wasn't.

     

    I'm sort of on the fence about super training. With pokerus and EV-enhancing items, I feel like the old way was quicker. Until (or if) they discover any EV-training hotspots, I guess that's the way I'm gonna have to do it though.
