Gau deserved to make it into Theatrhythm Final Bar Line. They chose a demon clown instead. Seriously, the Wild Child of the Veldt needs way more love.

But in less important news...

Life is a balance system.

By limiting your options, you'll think outside the box.

Did you know that sticks are sticks and pain is very painful?

If you ever feel unlucky, just remember that I learned of Goku Day's existence on May 10th.

My username is my username. Feel free to call me Giru. Or Gau. Something like that.

Got into Dragon Ball a while ago, if you hadn't noticed. I finished the original, Z, and GT. Started Super, got uninterested, have yet to finish Super. Imagine getting an action anime and caring more about if the characters are cute or not.
...Seriously though. Look at those kids. Tell me you wouldn't pat their heads. Like Gotenks, who doesn't like Gotenks?

Did you know Naruto was shorter than Yugi?

I'm a Shiny hunter, if you didn't know that already from, y'know, the list of Shinies. If you did, I'm still a Shiny hunter. Shiny, shiny, as Gau might say.

Speaking of Gau, he's one of those characters who I'm still a fan of, despite the fact that I first played Final Fantasy 6 over a year ago. That's pretty good considering how quickly and often I go through fandoms. Dunno why he's stuck for this long, but he has. That makes me happy, because when I play something new and cool, I focus on it like crazy, and it doesn't take long for old favorites to be pretty much abandoned. But so far, he's still there. It's reassuring, if that makes any sense at all. Or maybe I'm just bored...

I always see RPGs as having more turn-based combat, probably due to the fact that I played Super Mario RPG a ton when I was little. Turn-based combat is real fun though. So is good music. Video games generally have good music and I love it. Live A Live (pretty awesome game by the way), for example, has great music. Try listening to Megalomania.

Aside from video games, writing is also a hobby of mine. At least, it's supposed to be, but for quite a while, a lack of confidence and lack of results killed my enthusiasm for writing. Things seem to be turning around, though, as not only am I writing, but actually finishing things, which seemed foreign to me before. Two short fanfics so far and a confidence boost. Thanks, Dragon Ball.

We need a new Mystery Dungeon game, and it needs lots of starters. We're three Gens behind so far. They could've at least remade Explorers of Sky. They remade Diamond and Pearl and made Legends: Arceus, but I guess remaking the Gen 4 Mystery Dungeon was just too much for them.

~Shiny fails: every act of sheer klutziness tells a story~

Psyduck (Female, Level 17) - March 10th, 2021
I was Shiny hunting Psyduck in Moon. After a long while, I finally encountered a Shiny. Of course, the darn thing was stubborn and kept calling for help. After a few calls, the most startling thing happened, and I burst out yelling when I saw it. The Psyduck had called another Shiny Psyduck. Now, this was pretty incredible luck. Sure, I had a Shiny Charm and it was a rather long SOS chain, but still. I hadn't expected anything like that to happen... well, ever, I guess. The sad thing about SOS chains is that you can only use Poke Balls when there's one Pokemon on the field. You know what that means: I had to defeat one of the Shinies. Now, it's one thing to soft-reset over a Shiny or run out of Poke Balls. Those are just stupid mistakes or not being prepared. But it's another to have to knock out said Shiny so you can catch a different one. It really sucks. In the end, I decided on the male Psyduck. It was the first Shiny Psyduck, and I wanted a male one more. So I one-shot the female one with my Shiny Shelgon's Dragon Claw, and, after a bit of calling for help, caught the male Shiny.

Chansey (Female, Level 39) - July 13th, 2021
I was Shiny hunting Eevee, and luck hated me. I was just sitting around and wishing that, with all the Eevees coming out of the dang woodwork, I'd find a Shiny soon. But like with my earlier attempts at an Eevee Shiny hunt, where I caught a Shiny Ponyta, I found a Shiny Chansey. I took off after it and started flinging Ultra Balls. It burst out with one shake or no shake at all. Then it performed the second animation and I freaked out. I used another Ultra Ball, not wanting to use my only Master Ball, and it broke out of that too. I was going to flee from it, but it beat me to the punch and fled. My Catch Combo broke as the icing on the cake. Chansey isn't such a lucky Pokemon when it flees from you.

Kangaskhan (Female, Level 18) and Cubone (Male, Level 16) - May 28th, 2023
This was the worst. The worst. None of my other fails beat this. It is the Psyduck incident on steroids. I was SOS chaining Cubone and found a Shiny. However, it kept calling for help. Like, the amount it called for help was insane. It took me a while just to get my first shot at catching it, and I wanted to use a Beast Ball. Guess what? Broke out. And this kept up a lot. I had about five chances to catch it in total. But partway through, it called a Shiny Kangaskhan, and of course, I had to knock her out. All for nothing, too. If you were wondering how long I was attempting to catch this Cubone, it literally Struggled itself to death. I couldn't catch a Cubone in over 70 turns. True, I was using a Beast Ball, but still. I should've just caught the bloody thing, but I was fussy and it cost me a Shiny. Two of them, technically. Talk about feeling like an idiot.

~The Story of How I Got My First Full Odds Scarlet Shiny (very catchy title, I know)~
I went down a cliff to look at a random Tandemaus because I had nothing better to do. Then I saw a Shuppet and ran into it because I wanted one for my Pokedex. That's when I noticed another Shuppet in the background with a greenish tint.
Yeah. It was Shiny.
Luckily, it didn't despawn, but every second I waited for the run option to appear had me stressed that it would.
Then I caught it in a Dusk Ball.
~The End~

You have now reached the bottom of my profile. But that's not merely scrolling down really far. No, what you've just accomplished is a heroic deed that will be sung about for generations. Parents will tell stories of your bravery and endurance in the face of adversity to their children so that they may be inspired to achieve goals that seem overwhelmingly difficult, even impossible. Years from now, another will set out on a quest to achieve the seemingly impossible. He will journey through miles of wilderness for months, even years, to accomplish what his hero inspired him to do through tales he heard as a child. And, through hard work and perseverance, he will eventually prevail. But who, you may ask, is this brave young man inspired by? What drove him to accomplish the task? Why, the answer is you. What you've accomplished here today is an inspiration to many. Now, as you go on a grand new adventure, I hope you'll remember the amazing goal that you finally achieved today.

May the Goten give you luck.

Thanks, I think lol there’s a few twin interns coming along in the story but the ones I mentioned plus some others. I think I’m also thinking about reverse my story where he started making characters for it, but I haven’t actually written any of it yet. I’m not sure when I will since I’m still working on this current project, but next in line I think
There is an interesting idea too
Apr 10 by Dyla N
It’s going well so far I’m up to chapter 27 I believe Scratch that 26… One of the two I wrote it this morning at like 10 AM so I don(it being the most recent one, not the whole thing obviously) of course, these were very early bios and some things have like Lizzie it’s actually a permanent picture of the group not just someone that pops in and out,Cassidy’s I’ve loved once so far and should be popping up again soon Open up for any length of time not till the end really, Joey I just introduced within the last four or five chapters I think, everyone hates her and I love it and everyone I mean all the characters I’ve noticed that with this fan in particular, they seem to write the story I just do the physical typing if you know if you don’t, I’m not sure how to explain it actually but I can. I think the only other things that have changed or things that didn’t get posted on here because they were too As in my main character was originally 14 now she’s 15 and the second main character that I wrote is 14. My friend made a couple characters as well, but I don’t have those documents and she flipped their ages as well, which is kind of funny since the one that supposed to be older acts like she’s the younger one and vice versa so we’re kind of playing in that quite a bit. Lost are working on a few big buildup that should be coming out soon, law where one of her characters get severely injured and encounters Cereledge no, and helping her so I know in the story I was Pokémon is called the following ones in comparisonaromrouve pricing is honorable warriors. me a part of that that we’re playing with is that my friend made her character end up becoming friends with me Cereledge and as it turns out that Pokémon is actually the sister my characters pokemon who’s an Aromrouge named Lucian, the Cereledge is named Gweniver, have you seen anything of avatar the last Airbender but the two of them were kindZuko and his sisterQzila. Tonight will be a really fun reunion when it happens not

The other big thing we’re bringing up to is that my second main character Sidney, Who is one of the ones I can’t post on here, was actually an admin for team rocket
Environment who was the other one I can’t post on here just yet or can’t post it all because it’s like I said too long. What’s her best friend before that happened and she ends up Convincing her to leave The way she does it is kind of mushy though They have this like all the friendship that they made to each other and when she repeated it MeSidney remember the good times I answered before she became well and you might find this interesting but my main character Violet is actually bringing his younger sister no, I know she doesn’t really exist. I don’t care. I will admit, though I just had fun with Burley and getting her poisoned by a scalloped Long story heehee let’s just say Joey That’s very unlikable at the time and bring it to this thing despite her because she told the group when they first met up where to go to get tonactene See everyone else went, but Brady went the opposite direction because she’s burning. He likes to be contrary (I don’t remember if it’s actually how she wants, but that’s kind of how I’m picturing her in this case, also like 16 at this point so there’s that)

Other things have happened as well But you basically have some of the big things that have happened in the story so far they’ve done so much and yes, I’m being sarcastic. I’m up to chapter 26 or 27 and the two characters that are actually doing the gym challenge. Only have one badge and the other one has zero badges. Because she lost inStraiton city

Sorry that was kind of long…

Thinking of capacity as a bunch of think about on Jason‘s wall, if you want to check it out I just realized he doesn’t have my main characters yet ugh! why do I make myself the most separately? Grr
Apr 9 by Dyla N
Ah, well, how ya been?
Apr 9 by Dyla N
Ohh, I hadn’t asked if he was still on yet because I was going around everyone’s walls and well not everyone. Everyone was interested in and asking if they were still on I hadn’t gotten around to yours. Now I know, but just for kids hey, you still act? Lol
Apr 8 by Dyla N
Oh look, you’re still alive too I guess most of the gang is still here then
… say anything about me asking you anything I might’ve though I remembered telling Jasone A what a conversation you when I had a while ago I had to do with him i’m probably the only one who remembers it
