lol this is awesome

I find something hilarious about the fact that just before the mud hits, it looks like a pokeball.

i agree i hated to do that in the games v.v

It's better than when it use to be rocks! D:

thats true. =D i forgot it was rocks

I'm not entirely sure of the wisdom behind pissing off a rhydon with a rock...seems to be dangerous to ones health...Mud at least they wipe off.

well unless you want a rhydon charging at you then throw all the rocks ya can find XD
but yea mud comes off easy.

Persoanlly I would cringe more throwing mud at something like a Rydon. I don't think it would take much to get them to charge you.

That said this was a funny comic. XP

*throws bait*

THE RHYDON IS CHARGING, OH GOD WHY?!?!?!

RHYDON IS A FIRIN HIS LAZER!

Oh god, your avatar dances to the music I'm listening to. XD

As long as you promise to keep doing them every so often you got a watch from me.

Just be glad it's mud. Heaven knows what else you could've grabbed with all those Tauros around...

Hooray for animal cruelty! XD

Or how about when you have to use 1 bajillion pokeballs to catch some asshole pokemon who ends up DYING from trying to CATCH it.
I've had that happen before :c

I prefer the good old days of chucking rocks at giant bugs with scythes for arms.

I think I love you. xP

Is it sad I gave up trying to catch Scyther and just spent thousands of monies buying coins so I could buy it at the casino?

Also... 7 hours to catch Tauros... /bawl

It's mud now? I remember back in Blue when it was rocks. I'd call Pokemon abuse on it, but all things considered, getting rocks thrown at them (by a little boy as opposed to an Onix) is far from the worst thing any given Pokemon needs to go through.

lol sweet

Johto safari zone kinda disappoints until you get the National 'dex. :[

Johto Safari Zone freaks me the hell out. HOW DO THE AREAS MOOOVE? D<

Talk to the guys right outside in the hard hats. You'll find that those poor bastards move the areas THEMSELVES. O_o

Nothing says cooperation like a rock to the face. the fact it's mud now is kinda silly.

Yeah I tried for so long to catch a Misdreavous or w/e.
But.
Even if I feed it, they normally run after they eat.

It's annoying. D:

I love how at the beginning of the game they're always like DONT GO OUT THERE WITHOUT A POKEMON THERE ARE RATTATAS AND PIDGEYS THEY ARE DANGEROUS! but then in the safari zone it's you with some rocks vs. scyther

this is the best comment.

Hahahaha

This is why I love the Pokemon world.

XD

I caught a Wobbuffet the other night in the Safari Zone after stuffing a riceball down it's throat. He is AWESOME.

Yeah, it's pretty damn comical.

I'd like to think mud makes them easier to catch because they want to get revenge on you and they figure the easiest way to do that is to lure you into a false sense of security over a long period of time.

I love safari zone, will get annoyed with something and it allows me to pelt it with mud.
I sometimes don't even intend of catching something, I just hit it cause I'm mad.

BUT I LOVE JIGGLYPUFF xD

Lol this is so true...

I imagine that he has the same voice as the alien from that episode of Venture Brothers that yelled "IGNORE ME!!!" the whole episode - does that make me a bad person? Lol, great comic.

Good news, sample subjects of Earth! The glorious moment of judgment is upon you! IGNORE ME!

lol you see a tauros, throw a rock!... not such a good idea to throw a rock at a creature that could kill you without trying >.>

LOL

Beat that Jiggly Puff into submission! Feels a little wrong. This comic made me smile anyway.

I take great pleasure in throwing mud at pokemon lol

It is funny because it is true. X3

What I love more of pokemon is how you use your own pokemon to beat the enemy to a pulp, humillate it by stuffing it on a pokeball.. and it obeys you right away. Masochist much? XD

I always figured the pokeballs *slips into a Southern accent* used some kind of diabolical mind control ray beams to make them do your evil Blue bidding.

*clears throat* Or just some sort of hypnosis kinda thing, to force them into slavery...

As they say on TVTropes, Defeat Equals Friendship.

They explain it in the games along the lines of the pokemon testing a trainer to see if they're capable of working responsibly with them. Or something.

Yeah, I cannot see throwing things at them making them love you very much, never made alot of sense to me.

lmao

Makes no damn sense.

You throw mud at them, which makes them angrier and EASIER TO CATCH. I don't know about you, but if someone threw mud at me, I sure as hell wouldn't want to be in no damn Pokeball.

It's Japanese logic at work.

THEY RESPECT YOU MORE IF YOU BEAT THEM.

I C WUT YOU DID THAR

I enjoy throwing mud at Bibarrels. >:C

Do something involving Skarmory! It's an jet-fighter bird pokemon, what's not to love?

Why do we always hurt the ones we hit? <:|

With all the mudslingers, Pokemon trainers will make great politicians.

This... this is just... it's awesome. It's absolutely awesome.

NEXT EPISODE: Why the day-care guy can't figure out that your pokemon are having sex.

That's how I got all of my friends

ROCK.. OR FOOD?!
MAKE YOUR CHOICE
i was shit at safari zone.
the new pokemon games looks really cool but i'm sad that the huge wealth of professions in the pokemon world has been untouched. so far we have.. trainer.. and photographer. and i guess pinball, tcg: the game(which was actually kinda fun when i was 12) and stadium don't really count..?
i'm just saying.. WHERE'S THE GYM LEADER SIMULATION.. Where's the breeder simulation, when can we play as a Rocket grunt or a scientist or even as Nurse Joy or Officer Jenny, doing shit at a medical center or keeping the law in Pokemon world? A Safari Zone ranger would make a cool game, maybe a little like harvest moon. but better, cause pokemon.

They really don't vary their games enough. I was always hoping they'd make one where I could start in any direction I wanted. Just that little bit of change would have been good for me X v X .

exactly! and i am a sucker for cute new pokemon, but "we added new pokemon, changed some names, added features etc" to the sane story from red and blue, that makes me go :c

*same

Well supposedly they're claiming generation 5 will see a major change in gameplay, but I guess we'll see how true that is when it's released later this year.

oooohhh, i am excited for this!

So it's mud now instead of rocks? I always thought rocks were a little harsh anyways though.

Highly amusing.

SHINING FORCE

GODAMMIT, I LOVED THAT GAME

lmfao priceless XD

I always hated the Safari zones. XD

And throwing stuff at the pokemon always seemed very silly... and pointless. o.o

i like to think the safari zone is actually some sort of crazy pokemon reality tv show.

Still so terribly angry that they took away our rocks. >(

Meh, I despise the puff personally. Curses to that damnable Cute Charm ability and Sing!

Mud...rocks...bait

puff?

Oh geez, Good old safari zone, makeing us chuck rocks at giant doom bugs~

Personaly I never tossed anything at pokemon sept pokeballs, leave it all up to lady luck seeing as how treats NEVER HELPED WITH CHANSYS FFFFFFFFF

The only thing Throwing Mud ever did for me was make me end up in extreme pain...*pulls a comically large horn out of my back*...Third one today...
