7. WORD OF THE DAY! 5/21/13! Abomination.

In the general consensus of the internet, gamers are not exactly happy about the Xbox One or "Xbone". I would go so far as to say that some internet citizens found it to be a threat to their common indecency and bloated sense of entitlement that first erupted into the public consciousness with the ME3 Ending fiasco.

6. WORD OF THE DAY! 5/25/13! Overreact.

In fact, I would go even further to say that the negative reaction might be completely over the top and slightly embarrassing. But not as emberassing as the Xbone announcement-- BABOOM!

5. WORD OF THE DAY! 5/26/13! Shiny Pokémon.

1. WORD OF THE DAY! 5/24/13! Bogle.

It's been a while since I wrote any poetry and I really enjoyed this random creepy little poem for your Pokéhorror pleasure or whatnot. Have you guys ever written any literature about one of your favorite or, for that matter, any franchise?

Also, "Don't look outside the window at night. Or you'll wind up dead."

WORD OF THE DAY! 5/26/13!

shiny Pokémon [shahy-nee-poh-kee-mahn]
noun
1. Video game. Introduced in Generation II, especially with the in-game event Pokémon, Red Gyrados, these alternated colored Pokémon are extra-ordinarily rare. The odds of seeing, much less catching, one of these ultra-rare alternate colored Pokémon is approximately 8 in 65536.

EX. No, I don't think I've ever seen a shiny Pokémon on one of my cartridges and, besides Gyrados, I've never caught one. The funny part? Some shiny Pokémon aren't that different and, while grinding, you might not even notice.
