Holy Miltank! The Episode 9 Write-Up!
Hello, everyone! Episode 9 is out, which means that it's time for another write-up!
We begin with Gold receiving some tips on battling Whitney by the Tipster Nerd. Being the arrogant little kid that he is, he ignores the tips. He easily avoids a Lass on his way to battling Lass Carrie. This is where we begin to realize that Gold may have bit off more than he can chew. Once he defeats Carrie, he avoids another Lass and reaches Whitney. I remember battling Whitney on the classic games and how much of a pain it was to defeat her, especially if I chose Cyndaquil as my starter (which was 99.5% of the time). Also, Ash lost to Whitney before defeating her in the anime. These things helped inspire the idea of having Gold lose more than once. With the help of his Pokemon, Gold remembers that the Sages at the Sprout Tower's top floor broke the rules and he decides to do so himself. Surprisingly, Whitney allows him to do so. Unfortunately, it doesn't work out for our hero the first time around. Then, with Quilava's help, he remembers about the Drowzee he encountered close to Goldenrod and catches one after two very long and painful hours. This is why I didn't have Gold run away from the Drowzee battle after running away from the Youngster battle in Episode 8. Now, with Drowzee at his disposal, Gold puts the Miltank to sleep and lets his faithful Pokemon unleash the assault of a lifetime on the defenseless cow. Whitney cries like a little kid just like in the games. Only, it was kind of justified since she witnessed her beloved Miltank get killed...I guess. Fat Carl then appears and decides to cook the dead cow carcass in front of Whitney, which leads to Whitney swearing like crazy. I cringe a bit when I hear that back because my throat and chest were SO sore after recording that, haha. DM came up with the idea of having Carl cook the dead cow carcass. After a good meal, Gold ditches him in vintage fashion. It looks like Carl will have to wait even longer to find out about his long lost parents...
Oh, what's that? When is the next episode coming out? Hmm...well, it's highly likely that not for a while. Late November and early December are the most crucial parts of the Fall semester. Also, DM is expected to be very busy during the month of December. So, earliest I can tell is January...but, it's not certain just yet. I'll be sure to update you all as we plow through the rest of 2012.
Lastly, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, we are very thankful for all of your support. You guys are awesome. Thank you so much, and have a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!
Yup, that's about it! Hope you all enjoyed the episode and I'll blog you all later!

Halloween Episodes + Update!
Hello, everyone! Hope you all enjoyed the Halloween episodes! It was really fun making them. Let's dive in to them!
For Lost Halloween, it was about that time again for Gold to fly back to New Bark to celebrate another once-a-year occasion. Something you may or may not have noticed is that the gag involving Elm's Assistant buying the wrong decorations is the opposite occurrence of what the Assistant did in the Christmas special. When will Elm get a better Assistant? We may never know. Gold goes to his room and we hear that he has quite the costume collection. If only I had a Bloody Gir suit...and a regular green Gir doggie suit. Did any of you catch the referenced television shows Gold watched? If not, the shows were Pokemon (original anime), Spongebob, and Invader Zim. Once we get into Gold's dream, everything is based on the Pokemon Creepypasta called "Lost Silver." If you'd like to hear and read the story, I recommend you hear VoiceOvaGuy's (that's his channel name) narration of the story on YouTube. He really is quite good. Or, you can watch Draftmaster and I's playthrough of the game based on the story on our YouTube channel! Fat Carl wakes up Gold and does the Peanut Butter Jelly Time dance. As you probably realized, this is precisely why I had Gold have a banana suit in his collection.
While Draftmaster and I were coming up with ideas of what to do for a Halloween special, he wanted to do a Silver version as well as the Gold version. Luckily for us, the Pokemon Creepypasta called "Tarnished Gold" is Silver's story...sort of...maybe. Since we were going to release these two consecutively, I knew I had to include something that coincided with Lost Halloween. Therefore, we find out that it was Silver who stole Gold's Bloody Gir suit, not Gold's mother. While running around an area with trees, he hits his head on the Sudowoodo blocking the path to the next city. Once again, everything in Silver's dream was based on "Tarnished." VoiceOvaGuy has also narrated "Tarnished Gold" for those who wanted to hear and read the Creepypasta. Looks like Silver learned to be a little nicer to his Pokemon after such a dream. Special thanks to Alex from the Red Squirtle Squad for voicing Giovanni for us!
Now, onto the update! We have the majority of Episode 9 recorded! Once we record the last few lines, we'll try to release the episode by Thanksgiving time!
And, yeah! That's about it! Thanks again for your support and I'll catch ya all later!
