I'm bored, so I'm stealing this from Derpibooru:

In this thread pretend that season 3 had completed all 13 episodes. What was your favourite part of the season?

My favourite parts? Tough call. Trixie's comeback was expected, and I thought I'd hate it, but when she challenged Luna to a dance battle? I was jumping for joy!

Also the beach episode. Yeah, it was kinda fanservicey (Rarity's swimsuit... oh my... ) But the Crusaders' battle against Poseidon was a fantastic piece of animation.

Best song goes to the duet between Celestia and Iron Will. Manly tears were shed.

Blarg. Didn't get around to doing this. Maybe tomorrow then. Anyone up for a battle tomorrow afternoon?

Random image dump: Celestia/Luna images. So many beautiful pictures. I'll let them speak for themselves.

And also a funny comic.

I love how Discord bascially conceeds defeat simply because he likes the way his opponent beats him.

BUCK was the UK brony convention up in Manchester.

Did anyone go? How was it? I've heard nothing about it, unlike Everfree NW.

Haha, congratulations! Nice PMV too.

I'm intrigued. I don't know if I can commit the time right now (I think one of my threads may be drawing to a close though) but I'll tentatively put my name down.

I know you invited Lyra, and I'm sure she can come along (perhaps she and Bon Bon will travel together?) but I also have an OC I might app (the one currently my avatar):

His name is Elixir, an alchemist pony.

I like Steven. He seemed like a cool customer, and I liked his pokemon line up. Lance is a very close second due to his awesome battle music.

Oh. I think I'll try and be available for battles and whatnot tomorrow. Preferably on Platinum, but White is also a possiblity. I can do level 100 or flat battle on Platinum (two teams) or flat battle on White.

I guess I can do trades and stuff too, but I there are very few pokemon I need, and fewer still that I want.

"I'd say that was definitely okay, greenhorn. Hoof bump."

"Hoof bu- oh." replied Lyra, watching as Mal fell over onto her side. She moved to help the other unicorn up, only to see that she was already pushing herself up. She already knew Mal wasn't one to accept help, so she simply stood there sheepishly. Just then, her head began to swim as the after effects of casting such a powerful spell caught up with her.

"Guh, that's gonna smart in the morning."

Lyra dropped down on the cool grass near the newly diverted river. "I'm feeling kinda woozy myself. Without the leyline's power I feel so... tired..." She was just about ready to close her eyes and lay down for a quick rest when Trixie swept her up into a big hug. A big, long, and very close hug.

"I, the Great and Powerful Trixie, was absolutely without doubt that you could use your fantastic harmonies to bring those rocks down!"

"Ahaha... thanks, Trixie." replied Lyra, once again at a loss for how to deal with the showmare's amorous advances, yet also comforted by her. She was about to hug back when Trixie's hat flew off.

"My lovely hat!! Why don't you watch how you conduct your-"

"It's okay! I've got it! Ngh!" Lyra tried to grab Trixie's hat with her telekinesis, but drained of her energy, she sould only hold it for a moment before it was swept from her magical grasp. With the wind came the cold, and so when Trixie suggested they get inside the wagon, Lyra nodded her head in agreement. "Alright, let's go. We'll get some rest too. I think we've earnt it. I'll help you get your hat back later." She looked up to the Doctor, who was still yelling in triumph. "Doctor, you coming?" she called out.

Congrats to all the winners!

The Super Sure Shot Sniping Session

3rd - Rarity (Phil the Time Wizard) 4

Third place with only 4 points? WAT. Did everyone else get 0?

Cupcake Eating Challenge

2nd - Pinkie Pie (Rosewind)

Pinkie Pie didn't win an eating contest!? Everything I know is wrong!

"Hello Mr. Face."

"Hello Mr. Palm. What brings you here today?"

"Stupidity on the internet again I'm afraid. It just... It never stops! I- I can't..!"

"There, there, Mr. Palm. It'll be okay. Here, have a hug."

*sob* "Th-thank you."

In other news:

Ooh, I remember this character from way back! I remember those eyebrows! XD

Looks good!

For you Diego, for all your picture contributions:

Ooh! Lyra with a ponytail! Thanks!

Well, try beating any console game by only using one hand on the controller. Say goodbye to two-handed multitasking, and say hello to frantic five-fingered button pushing. It really is interesting to do this. Pain to use the triggers, though...

I have a friend who only has the use of one arm. He plays FPS games on a console one handed, and is often just as good, if not better than I am.

You want a challenge? Try playing a game with your toes. Blindfolded.

I never really understood the appeal of making things really hard for yourself though. A challenge is good, true, but making things so hard that you pull your hair out in frustration, where a single mistake means you have to start over... why bother?

DARNIT, DIEGO.

Oh well. Next time I'll win! Next time!

Also, I never said I wouldn't use flat rule. I only dislike having to use it. If you want to use it, I'll be fine with using it.

I understood that. I just wanted to explain why I prefer that rule.

Link it. Just note it as NSFW, I think that's okay. I do like me some good rants.

Actually links to objectional content are not allowed.

I get the feeling that maybe image dumps are going out of style here? Just a few more then.

This Day Aria, from Twilight's perspective:

Hugs!

Remarkably awesome Discord art.

With the exception of Discord x Anyone (Especially Pinkie or Celestia, but I've seen Discord x Derpy and Discord x Spike before. Ick) which I hate, I'm actaully pretty neutral on most of these. Even the incest ones just make me laugh, rather than give any kind of squick.

Worst for me, is RumbleLane. Why would you draw that?

Even this. I certainly don't agree with it, but it amuses me to think that someone decided to do it.

Guess you're right, but I still don't find myself enjoying flat rule. I work hard to train those Pokemon to high levels just to have them play at a lower one. But if people insist on using it, I guess I have no choice.

I dislike the idea of a trainer winning just because his/her pokemon are a higher level. In pvp, how you train your mons should be more important, not how much xp they have. Also I find grinding xp to be incredible tedious. I don't want to have to make sure my entire team is all at the same arbitrary level as yours just so that we can have a fair fight. This is why I leveled my pokemon in ruby version using the daycare/ramp exploit.

Training them high isn't a bad thing though. You still get stat xp, and you get the higher level-up moves.

Pegacorn?

...

No, that's stupid.

I'll accept alicorn or winged unicorn. That's about it. Pegacorn or Unisus.... just no.

Spitfire...

Now tell me some of yours.

Also, I suddenly like Spitfire's now that I can see it clearly for the first time.

I should point out that it's not official, it's a fan interpretation. Spitfire's cutie mark has never been seen since she's never out of her uniform on the show.

I... don't have a favourite cutie mark. Heck, I've never even thought of it before.

...Silver Spoon's maybe? The spoon has quite a nice design. Luna's large cutie mark is cool too.

Some new possible Season 3 creatures have popped up on some Trading cards.

-snip-

Considering the bunny, there is a massive chance that if this turns out to be true, we'll be seeing some more action from a certain Draconequs.

Update: Turns out the wolf-like creature is an unused asset. No word on the spider. Seems considerably less likely this reveals anything, though.

Source on these?

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, since I can't check right now, but the spider looks like one of the ones that Luna summoned in Luna Eclipsed.

I think that's only if you set a restriction, but I think restrictions are no fun. X3

That's a shame because I am going to have to insist on them.

Levels reduced to 50.

Max of one uber per team.

No items.

Fox only.

Final Destination.

I'm a little confused here, why do levels matter? You can set the game so all pokemon are level 50, can't you? Or is that only in certain versions?

Anyway...

Games You Own: Platinum (favoured), White

Friend Code/s: Platinum (0989 8058 6513) White (0604 5474 9181)

Favorite Pokemon: Arg, hard to choose. I have so many. Absol, Haunter, Mew, Mewtwo, Nidoqueen, Eevee, Blastoise, Dragonite, Mismagius, Ampharos, Electrode, Scyther, Mawile, Cacturne, Shaymin, Furret, Kangaskhan, Porygon, Togekiss, Snivy, Dewott, Lilligant, Weavile and many more.

Starter Pokemon Choice: Whatever takes my fancy at the time, but I tend to gravitate towards water types since they often have decent movepools.

Pokemon Team:

Favorite Types: All of them.

Other: Does anyone else still forget the names of pokemon? Shaymin is one of my favs, but I still had to look up her name. ^^:

I haven't played in a while and never against a human, so I have no idea how this will go. Also my White team is boring and lackluster and I can't/won't port my regular teams from Platinum. Can't because I don't have a second DS (the only one I know who has one is my Dad and he doesn't have it here) and won't because the Frontier is a pretty awesome way to fight, and far superior to the stupid train thing in B/W -no I'm not bitter because I can't get past 15 fights, what are you talking about?

Also, put me down for Pokemon Trainer ranking, as I won't be very active for a while. Plus it's hard for me to get my DS on wifi. I have to fiddle with the modem settings, which prevents anyone else in the house from using the wifi, so I can only do it when every one else is busy/out/asleep.

Custom trainer sprite :3

Pinkie Pie has to get all that energy from somewhere. This just makes me giggle.

Very cool Windwaker style NMM.

And an awesome looking anthro NMM in armour.

And lastly, a Diablo 3 crossover. It combines funny and cute. :3

Good, I do believe I'm caught up on image dumps.
