I caught a Shiny Watermelon Bat

by Alxala

Last night after defeating a couple more gym leaders and Team Galactic Commander Saturn in Pokemon Diamond, I managed to catch my first shiny Pokemon. It was a shiny Golbat located in a cave:

It’s got shiny colors of a watermelon.

Wow, I felt so amazed when that happened. 😀

Scream Fortress Extravaganza

by Alxala
Let me get up there dammit! 😛

Been playing some TF2 yesterday because of the Scream Fortress update this year, and I have collected a total of 89 souls from my Soul Gargoyle, an item that you can level up just by collecting souls for killing enemies, finding Soul Gargoyles in-game, and completing Merasmissions. Awesome! 😀

So yeah, it was fun playing around on Halloween-themed community servers until the game coordinator service decided to go kaput for a while.

Tuesday Evening Open Thread

by Alxala

There’s not a whole lot to report on tonight. San_San and I went to grab groceries from Fred Meyer this evening, and then we got home and went through the whole receipt to check for bought items before putting them away. I guess that shopping trip went really quick. 🙂

And for now for no apparent reason here’s this adorable photo of Morty resting on the wooden chair:

This looks like a job for Dash and Roxette!

Instead of playing some games on my Nintendo DS emulator, I decided to create two of my new avatar characters in Scribblenauts this evening. They’re Dash and Roxette, the two brave superhero siblings who look like Maxwell and Lily:

Definitely an adorable superhero duo. 🙂

Pikachu, I snooze you!!!

by Alxala

I dug back into some Pokemon Diamond on my Nintendo DS emulator last night, and I managed to defeat two more Gym leaders known as Maylene and Crasher Wake (more like Crasher Cake 😛 ). So far I have obtained four badges and made some good Pokedex progress by catching various types of Pokemon that I haven’t even seen in-game before like Skorupi and Carnivine (both located in the Great Marsh) 🙂

Now I just need find a way to get to the Team Galactic HQ so I can search for Dawn’s Pokedex, which she accidentally dropped on the ground somewhere in Veilstone City and was stolen by Team Galactic. Uh-oh!

But either way, it was fun destroying opposing trainers and Gym leaders. 🙂

MOAR WAR PAINT!!! YAAAAAY!!!

by Alxala

I sold enough trading cards this to buy a couple of War Paint tools from the Steam Community Market and add them to my Team Fortress 2 inventory:

And here’s two more of my War Paint weapons that I’ve received:

Oh, I also bought a Radigan Conagher Brown paint tool and applied it to my Sky High Fly Guy for the Soldier:

It’s a perfect color for a leather pilot’s hat. 🙂
