Comics - Chapter 8 Page 23

First! Poor Grassthing...

*Toss*

Still smiling.

Something horrible will happen to that Oddish, I'm sure of it.

Oh, and the new cover does look better. That isn't to say the old one was bad, though.

wow- is that the first time DT was ever upset at Atty? at ANYTHING?

...I just realized something. Doesn't Atticus have the pokedex? Maybe it'd be a good thing to get George to teach him how to use it to check out what pokemon has what~

@sonics1030: Nah... he's gonna call it Weedthing...

Name it Odd, since it really is xD
Atticus throws it as if it's a fetch toy for DT, though.

Poor grassthing I always liked Oddish, mainly because he/she always evolved into Gloom, who I always really like because I always felt like Eric's Gloom, being loved despite your faults.

Poor Grassthing!!! :(

That Oddish must have a Quirky nature, keeping such a look on its face no matter what.

The Oddish That Oddish seems really tiny, considering Atty can pick it up with one hand and all. Really goes to show size differences in Pokemon :)

Ha ha ha really loving DT's face in that last panel when Atty just tosses the oddish away.

Mind you, maybe that oddish will come back to haunt them c: Scaaary xD

Zoom in on the Oddish in the last panel.

"...Soon..."

It's name is now "That thing" XD

Also, theres a smug on DT's face, and its bothering me. /eye twitch

A Tale of Gloid That Oddish is acting odd. Hmm. Wonder if it's going to become a permanent part of the team, after what happened with that Rattata.

New Cover Can't say that I don't like it, cuz I do. It is interesting to look back and see how your drawing style has changed and evolved since way back then. I will, however, state that poor Atty might not be pleased to have lost about 5 feet in height.

Poor oddish, time for a new chewtoy for DT...

Well I guess I'll stop looking for blond kid now.

@Frappecinno: He doesn't have the pokédex, he skipped that part of the game, remember? (he had to go back with the professor and give him the package with the pokéballs)

Thatthing has JUST been named people! Let the subject down already, his magikarp doesn't have a name either, and no one seems to care!

Aw, it's so smiley.

Let's break it.

New Cover Interesting... Do I sense a Scyther in Atty's future?

Also: Vileplume ftw!

I hope we're not going to see the same "What the hell is that?" joke every time Atty comes across a pokémon, else it'll get really old

Oddish, so swag.

Poor little thing. You will never be a bellossom.
Comedy demands it.

@fred fredburger: I get the feeling that he (and the others too) are just being shown from slightly above. Notice how he's looking up?

Cheery it's a good thing that oddish has so much pep...she will not be fazed by the hazing XD

that....oddish cheerleader O_O

I wonder if H0ly decided to change the cover because she no longer has plans for those Pokemon appearing, or just to make us stop guessing what will happen

Hm... Has anyone else noticed how soft Atty has gotten when it comes to our favorite Charmeleon?

@Sanu Wolff: Shh, you'll give the shippers ideas, haha.

He should be called bulb or sprout But I guess those are too cute for Atty.
This reminds me of when girls go for bad boys, they're trailing behind them all happy while the guy's sour and indifferent.

@Mio_Chouseki: Actually, the Magikarp's name is Fish.

Can anyone link me the page that explains why Dragonthing is mad? I don't remember.

@Seven: A few pages ago he was robbing an old man. He was waiting outside for Dragonthing, when a kid came upto him stating ho suspitious he looked. Due to his concience, he left the TM that he stole and ran, however, he accidently left Dragonthing behind in the old man's house.

lol nice

@Frappecinno:

You get the pokedex after you give Oak the parcel, which he just glossed over.

Yeah, such an Odd pokemon... though it does looks like an radish, so maybe it's only an Oddish thing?

I don't think that Oddish has frowned once so far. What's he so happy about? Maybe he's glad that Team Rocket is finally going to get a pokemon to use other than Rattatas and Zubats.

@larei: Kanto demands it. There aren't any Sun Stones on Kanto yet.

Shucks, guys. I thought we were done with the whole Oddish naming thing. It wasn't this bad with the Magikarp.
Obviously playing favorites. Poor Magikarp.

All the talk about the PokéDex made me think about the fact that it also serves as the trainer's identification. Atticus doesn't have any ID at all right now. Fun. :3

Guys That Thing is a girl! Stop calling her "he".

@SeriousJupiter: You're absolutely right! Where does everyone get off. But let me point out that "That Thing" isn't officially her name yet (And I do very much hope it continues to not be). She's not a thing, she is a beautiful creature with a real name. Her name is Oddish!

Golly gee willikers!

I'm just calling her Placeholder until we get an actual name.

Well, it was either Placeholder or something from Backstroke of the West, so...

@AFeralFurry: Or, you know, Oddish maybe?

@Doutonbori Robo: But she's special, and it's unique, haha.

Well, alright. Oddish it is. That's still better than what some people name their Pokemon.

...Some people really have their mind in the gutter...

Yeah, I prefer no nickname to pervy ones.

(●‿● )

@AFeralFurry: Same here

And that, kids, is how Oddish became so abundant in the grasses north of Cerulean.

oddish name borrowing from a book i read he could call it chloro fiend. or save it for a tangela.

I wish there were an official facebook page for this comic so I could like the shit out of it for all to see! <3

You can't really complain about getting a wimpy pokemon, Atty. It's at least on par with most of your team and you didn't even have to capture it yourself.

@Harrow That face is creeping me out immensely O~O

horrible @AFeralFurry: you mean like evolving to a Vileplume and being part of atty end game team?

omg I missed this so much... will Atticus ever get a Ponyta? *shiny eyes*
