I must confess. I always walked back and forth looking for a Pikachu. Why...? ... ... Because everyone wanted a pikachu! Even if you didn't like them! You had to get the bloody Pikachu! Like a curse...

... I'm not sick of trees YET... Not yet. Though I am getting a bit tired with how I do backgrounds. Not with drawing them but with how they look. All a bit too greeeey on this page. I have a habit of putting a background in near every panel I have, maybe I should look into different ways of doing them. ... Or. Just finding appropriate places to cut them.

I had to tone Thad's costume and language DOWN for this comic. Just a bit. No one needs to tell me he looks weird/swears too much. Believe me. I know, I really do. A mate told me that people might not be offended by there suddenly being fuck thrown about the place, but that it certainly stood out from the rest of the comic. Thing is, Thad would be overjoyed to hear that. It's okay, of course, he's a BAD GUY. They swear with the power of evil.

Oh and... Spoiler. He's not Atty's dad.

See y'all soon.

It's a beautiful forest. And I'm a teeny bit sad to read that you toned down Thad's character. But I shall read on anyway.

Reply Crusty_Kris, 06 Mar 2011 05:38 pm

So true, everyone wants a pikachu even if its useless for the first gym

and is that a pokedex i see in her hands?

Reply Some Person Named Crane (Guest), 06 Mar 2011 05:40 pm

Is there any chance that this person might be Atty's father?

No.

Therefore, this person is Atty's father.

Reply Mr Aids, 06 Mar 2011 05:48 pm

Thad is totally Atty's dad.

I could use another Sharpie.

Reply Asj, 06 Mar 2011 05:58 pm

I think Atty will make him his hero. Maybe beg him to take him with him.

I think everyone wants a pikachu because of the famous Ash Ketchem, who's famous pokemon was a pikachu. ...but everyone already knows that...

All of my friends had trouble catching pikachu, but I always found it when I was trying to leave the forest. Every time. :]

Reply xkrazydog, 06 Mar 2011 07:08 pm

Dont waste a good sharpie. Shove a pikachu up there instead.

Its insulting guys, shut up.
On another note, i loves Trix in the third panel. so pretty.

Reply peanutbutterpancakes, 06 Mar 2011 07:16 pm

I like Thad's design. Hair and jacket and all that stuff. Then again I always tend to like the bad guys... they are often so much more interesting. Though Atty is amazing also... Hmm... maybe just this whole thing is amazing.

Reply Taseli, 06 Mar 2011 07:17 pm

>_< I found a Pikachu without even looking for it. Then I went to my brother and was like "are these rare?"

I caught it, and it sucked. A lot. Monsters 30 levels lower than it one hit KO'd it.

Reply pat15, 06 Mar 2011 07:31 pm

If they start killing pidgeys, people would start calling them rare, thus being able to sell a bird for 1,000,000,000$

It's the perfect scheme that Team Rocket may or may not do, and has no relation to the comic whatsoever

Reply zims, 06 Mar 2011 07:32 pm

Haha. Okay, not father. Brother maybe!? (Does that result in a Sharpie??)

Your backgrounds are always so detailed!! Even if it is black and white it looks incredible!! :D

Reply Burbleburble (Guest), 06 Mar 2011 08:13 pm

The sweet thing about having Pokemon: Version Yellow was always getting Pikachu automatically. :D
No Raichu, though.

I, for one, did notice the FUCK right away, but didn't find it out of place. He's a bad guy, so it's only natural for him to say bad words. But apart from that one instance, he has a very clean mouth thus far.

I had this one specific spot in Pokemon Yellow where I would look for Pikachu. I could never find them anywhere except for in one patch of grass near the entrance to the forest to the very right. They were absurdly common in that spot. :D

I loathe pikachu. Kinda like raichu, but pikachu is too cutesy and useless.

Reply tsubasa-myuu, 06 Mar 2011 10:26 pm

You know what? I didn't really notice the f word at all just now, until I read the artist comment. I think high school has reall made me immune to being bothered by those kinds of words.

Anyway, as long as you don't have him cussing every other word, the f word fits his character. And it can't be worse than all the friggin yaoi all over this site anyway. If it fits the character and is used approprietly, than by all means go for it!

Reply D< (Guest), 06 Mar 2011 11:06 pm

:'O !! I envision a Pikachu extinction. XD

.. o-o I dunno why peeps would say it's Atty's dad. .. O-o I don't see the resemblance.. He makes me think of Indiana Jones more in design. 8D Don't ask why.

Reply He swore? WHEN?! (Guest), 06 Mar 2011 11:12 pm

SERIOUSLY! WHEN?!! Oh. So he did say fuck. Now I'm sad. He's not even much of a potty mouth and he'll be toned down? Meh. Sad, but I'll live. :]

On another note, you're right. Much as I hated the damn thing, every time it popped up in Viridian Forest, I'd jump to catch it. Why? Lord only knows. Perhaps I've been hypnotized when I wasn't looking. I agree with Someone-yada-yada though. I loathed that thing for its unnecessary cutesy-ness and uselessness. But Raichu was alright. :]

Atty has green eyes. His mom has brown eyes (or maybe they're hazel). Therefore Atty's dad must have green eyes.


Thad has brown eyes. Or can't you tell?

EDIT: If Thad actually has blue (or green) eyes I'll (pretend to) shoot myself!

Reply Iarei (Guest), 07 Mar 2011 01:29 pm

THUNDER Honestly I think one of the main reasons Pikachu was so popular was the fact that every other lightning type was a retarded float-bot or explode orb. Personally I just substituted Psychic for lightning in my lineups. Nothing beats a good old fashioned mind-rape for the quick kill.

Nostalgiaaa! I remember when I had Pokemon blue. I bought it to elementary school, you know, back when the *GAMEBOY CoLoR* was POPULAR!
People used to want to battle me all the time and watch if they didn't have a GBC.
I was THE champion, but I still wanted a pikachu. So I go to Viridian Forest and walk ALL OVER the place looking for one, and people would go O~o at me. Sorry, just a nostalgic rant.

I hate Pickachu. always have and likely always will. I never understood its appeal. Pichu is cute but he's still not something I want tagging along with me. In fact I don't really like any electric types, and my disdain for them continued until diamond/pearl when Pachirisu came out. Oh my gods I love that adorable electric squirrel. Pachirisu is MY Pikachu and you will never see my walking back and forth through tall grass looking for some stupid electric mouse. My roommate said that he was going to enter some event to get a surfing Pikachu and I said "why?" And he said "*shrug* just because. It's a Pikachu that knows Surf!" I hate Pokemon fans.... stupid Pikachu...
