Okay, so I haven't posted in a while, but I figured I may as well post this.

http://district151.com/wiki/

This is a link to our new wiki! No more will we force people to search endlessly for the Pokemon they want through Wordpress! It's all here!

Well...we need help with it. If you're familiar with Pokémon, help us out! We're not gods (no matter how much my staff and I want to be). Please, we can't do it alone!

Also, our Summer Challenge started tonight; check the forum for details.

Hope to see a bunch of Pokéfans over here! 8)

Hey guys, we're going to be airing the first District 151 podcast tomorrow!

A podcast all about competitive battling, we're going to try to talk about some of the strategy of the current metagame. We'll be featuring talks on many individual Pokémon, moves, and abilities.

We're hoping to get it on RacketboyTV (I haven't been getting replies from the guys in charge), but if we can't, it will be on the District 151 channel located at http://www.livestream.com/District151. I'll keep you all posted on where it'll be.

The podcast will start at 10 PM EST, and it will be AWESOME. So be there!

Didn't get to hear a lot of the podcast but what I did hear was interesting.

It'd be cool to see some strategies played out in pokemon lab or shoddy battle. Or even just using pokemon lab or shoddy battle to conveniently display a discussed pokemon's data. Just an idea. It'd probably be a pain to setup though.
Since this signature affects old posts, I'm leaving a message here in case anyone searches for my username. This account died in early 2013. I am no longer a fundamentalist.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.

Actually, we may do something like that from time to time on our own channel. We had moop record through the Livestream for us for RBTV (thanks moop!), but we do have our own channel and have discussed doing things like this before. Definitely a future option, and I'd love to hear others' opinions on it.

Thanks for the feedback and for listening, even if it was for a short time. We really do appreciate it. :)

I'm going to try to get this on iTunes as soon as we come up with a name for it. If anyone has any ideas, they are certainly welcomed, as we are a bunch of idiots at naming. :lol:

What’d you use to get rid of yours asbestos? I could use some asbestos-clearing tips.

What is this I don't even


Edit: OH. This is referencing the original post. I used Q-Tips and rubbing alcohol. And plutonium.

The District 151 podcast, Battle Frontier, is now on iTunes!

http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/batt ... d478628562

Don't really pay too much attention to the Explicit tags; the first one is clean and the second one has one "shit" said.
