I disagree.

How many threads has Artman made about food? How many arguments has he gotten into over Cuban cuisine? And what does Snorlax like to do? Stuff his fat face.

How many times has Tits mentioned that he’s laid out on the couch like a lazy sloth? Snorlax likes to sleep.

And Artman may be a big dumb galoot but I’m positive he’s a tank IRL. You need some big dummy to run head first through a wall? He’s your man.
That's fair I suppose.

But Snorlax also has the general intelligence to master a wide variety of complex moves from a wide variety of fighting styles.

For example:

1. Skull Bash (Normal)
2. Hyper Beam (Normal)
3. Solar Beam (Grass)
4. Fire Blast (Fire)
5. Blizzard (Ice)
6. Earthquake (Ground)
7. Thunderbolt (Electric)
8. Psychic (Psychic)
9. Submission (Fighting)
10. Rock Slide (Rock)

That would be like Artie having college-level knowledge of 10 relatively distinct majors.

Jesus Christ, Bush :lol:

You really were a fan, huh? I’d only watch when my younger bro would have it on, and only to perv out on Misty.

Of course.

I was a Pokemon Master in both Pokemon Yellow and Pokemon Silver (video games).

I didn't watch the cartoon that much, and nothing past the first generation...but when it comes to first generation knowledge, I'm high-level for sure.

Snorlax's absurdly high HP and versatile moveset are pretty much his defining characteristics. That's common knowledge to anyone who played the games.

Bush I think they’re saying that if you didn’t google that shit then you’re a bit of a faggot.

I don’t have a strong opinion on the subject, myself. Tolerating each other’s weird hobbies, likes and dislikes is how you keep board allies around here.

Why?

Because I actually gave a shit during my Pokemon journey and learned/strategized intelligently?

Seriously, nothing I typed above is "rain-man" level stuff...it's common knowledge to anyone who played the games.

Meh. Only nerds were into Pokemon back then.

All the cool kids were into My Little Pony.

You’ll have to ask them, pal. I’m riding the fence on this one, I was just here to stir the pot a bit. But I’m a KUB-level nerd when it comes to Marvel, probably even worse when it comes to the actual comics (but a lot less when it comes to the movies).

So I’m not judging. Although no troll you do worry me with the My Little Pony shit.

I *developed* that knowledge nearly 20 years ago, genius.

I simply retained it because I'm smart and don't have the memory of a goldfish.

Obviously the moves he levels up with naturally are going to be the most used moves (at least until they are replaced).

That said, Hyper Beam and Rest are the two moves that are probably most associated with Snorlax.

Moves he learns by TM are obviously going to vary from trainer to trainer.

For example, many trainers teach him "surf", but I didn't teach him that because I had Gyrados and that would introduce redundancies into my team I wanted to avoid.

Without knowing his lineup, do you think you could beat KUB in a Pokémon battle?

Of course. Assuming we are staying within generation 1.

I've only lost to one human opponent ever and zero computer opponents.

I even beat "Red" in Pokemon Silver with a 15-20 level disadvantage.

Pokemon taps into one of the most primal and satisfying desires ingrained in man (to capture, train and fight animals). It's an awesome media franchise and continues to get better. I love it.

Hell I played Pokémon a couple times in my life with my oldest niece. So what.

Lol you’re the same way Gramps. You hate the Beatles, hate the Lakers, hate Lebron, think damn near every ethnic food is “gross”, etc.

You and Arty are a couple of grumpy old men. :suds:
Excuse me. Several threads about the Lakers lately and I have been quiet. Hell, every superhero thread Arty gets unglued. The Cuban food threads, I have stayed out of. Music threads lately, I have left alone. Now go buy some good potato sausage, boil it, then grill it and eat it with some eggs and have some fruit with it.
