Majora's Mask is one of the few "newer" Zelda games that I haven't played, and trust me when I say that I've wanted to. I actually missed OoT for the N64, but I got the 3DS remake when I got my 3DS two Christmases ago.

Mmm, SS and TP do kind of blur, but they're not totally unrelated. Actually, they have more in common with each other than any of the other games. I mean, the whole setting for Skyward Sword (which is supposed to take place before all of the other games in general) takes most of its traits directly from Twilight Princess. For instance, Twilight Princess talks about how Hylians have their origins in the sky and you even get to visit a dungeon called "City in the Sky," whose inhabitants are all this avian creatures with humanlike faces (it sounds creepy, but they're very nice in the game). In Skyward Sword, you travel to and from the floating island of Skyloft (which came into being thanks to the goddess Hylia sending an outcropping of land into the sky with her divine power). Skyloft is basically the past version of the City in the Sky. Additionally, locations like Eldin Volcano and Faron Woods are supposedly the future Death Mountain and Lost Woods.

Sorry if I'm bombarding you... I've actually been catching up on a lot of the older titles the two years. In fact, I just downloaded Four Swords today since they announce a free download of it.

Eldin Bridge is a setting in Twilight Princess. It's actually a critical part of the story where Link fights the Bokoblin King (a ogre who rides a giant boar). It's pretty dramatic because you've got to ride on horseback and try to slice him with your sword before he gores your horse Epona, which sends you flying into the ravine. Additionally, it's important to the storyline since, up to that point, Link's been trying to track down some kids from his village who got kidnapped by the monster.

In Skyward Sword, the dragons are symbolic of the three gods that supposedly created the Triforce (Din, Farore, and Nayru). They don't always appear in the series in general, though. If I recall, OoT and Wind Waker are the only ones where they're referenced, and the GBC Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons games are the only ones where they appear (Din is the Oracle of Seasons and Nayru is the Oracle of Ages, while Farore is the Oracle of Secrets since she lets you use special passwords to unlock extras in each game).

Yeah, timed battles are few and far between in games, except in Zelda: Skyward Sword's Boss Rush event in which you're trying to get the best time. However, that's not part of the main game... It's actually something you can only do during the last part of the game, wherein you're trying to find these three elemental dragons: Faron of Water, Eldin of Fire, and Lanayru of Thunder. Lanayru liked to gamble and he'll give you prizes if you let him use his powers to make Link relive boss battles or rechallenge these spirit world levels known as Silent Realms.

Exactly. Also, it has nasty attacks that can kill you fast (namely, stomping). You can stun it in the second and third battles, but it gets hard to after it gains its flying ability.

Nah, I took the picture from somewhere else :P

In a nutshell, you fight the same monster (The Imprisoned) three different times before it turns into the final boss (Demise). The Imprisoned is different each battle. First, it's this giant blob with legs. Next battle it grows arms. Last time you fight it, it learns how to fly. The goal is to stop it from escaping a pit and destroying a shrine that's kept it sealed away for thousands of years. If it reaches the temple, the game ends. That's why it gets hard.

Not really, but they weren't bad. So, if you didn't play SS, then you probably missed Twilight Princess too? Both were good, but SS got rough halfway in. The final boss had three incarnations you had to beat during the course of the game and they kept getting worse and worse. The third battle was almost impossible to complete.

A Link to the Past was actually a hard game at times, so A Link Between Worlds is about the same. Have you ever played Skyward Sword? That game had Hero Mode too. The monsters are twice as strong and you had limited recovery options. Hero Mode in ALBW follows suit, except you can find hearts in the wilderness, wherein they didn't exist in Skyward Sword's hero mode.

It's a fun game that goes extremely fast, but it gets very hard at times. The bosses a f-ing insane, especially Yuga (the main antagonist). They really keep you on your toes. Also, it's a major throwback to what Zelda games used to be like (hard bosses, intricate dungeons, etc.). I would highly recommend it. I just started Hero/hard mode and it's brutal! It is a fun but challenging game.

Ok, then. Meh, I've just been a little negligent of my Pokémon-related gaming recently. I've been spending more time playing Etrian Odyssey IV, DKC Returns, and Zelda: A Link Between Worlds lately than anything else. I've actually been meaning to do a lot more stuff between my Pokémon X and Y games, though... >.>

OJ. I just thought you were going to ask for them right away.

Meh, I'll get back to you on the starters... I haven't had time to breed them yet...

Sure thing. I just need to breed them. Don't worry about what to trade.

Need starters or are you good? I just got all the pre-gen 6 ones today, except for Treecko, and I was going to start raising/breeding them tomorrow, then spread a bunch like the plague via Wonder Trade.

Meh, I should've used a Zoroark I got via GTS to breed. He has 4 IVs that the Judge said were perfect (including Special Attack and Speed). Oh well.

How's the Zorua I traded you? Did you happen to check the IVs? I didn't have a chance to before I gave it to you, so I just wanted to make sure I gave you a fair trade since it had Hasty nature (which doesn't recess Attack or Special Attack).

No, it doesn't. I tip all the time and nothing

They say that, but I haven't found any yet. That's why I was trying to Masuda Method breed

No, it wasn't. I used to know the guy on PokeBeach, but I haven't been talking to him much until recently again. The one battle we had was a while ago and he admitted to using hacks. He's not such a bad guy, but I know he likes using cheats. I don't think his team was hacked this time, but I did find it odd that ALL of his Pokémon were shinies... >.> Seems a little iffy, to me.

hi bro sorry i have no clue about my safari
