No, not the first post... go to the end of the topic and search backwards until you find the most recent list. It's usually only a page or two in.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Okay thanks^^

Also questions: What's the number in the brackets? I guess the names next to it are the people fighting it and if it says "fainted" then I guess it's currently fainted so can't be fought, right?

The bracketed number means the number of wins (like levels)

Well, all hatched IPAs start at zero. The ones in the wild can range from 0 and beyond, depending on where you're catching pokemon. It's basically the same as the game.

Kaida thinks it's about time she returned to IPA.

Are there any objections?

To answer the question formally, of course you're welcome to return, Kaida. Especially because you've still got all your IPA's data in your signature; what am I supposed to do, turn you away?

Also, today's a holiday except that it's now 1 am so technically it isn't anymore and so I'm not updating today because everyone deserves a break and I was just on the phone for four hours which I admit is pathetic but now it's late and I won't be able to focus on IPA things anyway.

Hai. ^_^ That ones my starter, which I got way before you joined, and the fact that it was part Treeko reminded me of you so much I couldn't resist.

Hey Silver, since BFC has been banned from forum games for who knows how long, can I prematurely end our battle so I'm not stuck in it?

Right, I didn't think about that... Ok, we'll call it a draw.
