Grim Gems

It's for the best if we don't talk about the Fighting Gem.

Hello and welcome to another session of me fooling around. The topic of today is cavern gems, hope you'll have a good time.

I'll see if I can have some simplier strips up and ready when Mondays comes around, along with the usual Friday updates. Time will have to show if I'll land myself a heart failure or not!

Props for actually having all these as a single strip rather than stretching them out to several updates like I'm sure many would.

Too many updates for saying essentially the same thing.

I thought about doing the same thing with Hitmonchan, Gastly and Diglett back in the day, but those strips got a larger share of my attention and effort, so I felt it to be appropriate to post them separately.

Dude you should do one with the wings too!

You found a resist wing! *Resists*
You found a muscle wing! *Shows off muscles*
You found a pretty wing! *Flirts*
You found a genius wing! *Acts smart*

There's a strip planned for the wings, actually! But not in the way you had in mind I'm afraid.

Totally heard "come back" in a titanic-ending kind of tone :D
Also more consistent facial art work in this one, nice improvement.

What's brethren?

Just a finer word for 'brothers', the fellow mates of the psychic gem still trapped in the soil. I should have checked the spelling though, but for once it seems like I was right on the first try!

Sorry

But this one sailed straight over my head. Would someone care to explain, por favor? Googling did not help...

I didn't get the Dragon Gem reference. The rest were amazing though!

And to think I was selling them all off... But really, they aren't that great an item. Just one attack is boosted, as opposed to a, say, Draco Plate which is a permanent boost

AN EXPLANATION

You demand one.
The dragon gem is supposedly a dragon ball from Dragonball (z, z: kai, ect.) and the kid is either gohan or goku, two characters from the show(s)

Awesome

Just awesome.

DK: In Black and White you can find gems, that increase a special type. Gems that increase ground-type are called ground-gems, for example.

@Psycho Blah

Three words: Flying Gem Archeops.

Use Acrobatics. Flying Gem activates and is used up, which also activates Acrobatics' boost, giving that first attack....uh....lemme math it out...effectively 165 base power. Plus STAB.

All subsequent Acrobatics are 110 BP, plus STAB.

???

PROFIT!

So yeah, most of the gems do suck, but if you have nothing else to put in there, they can certainly be a useful surprise. And of course Flying Gem + Acrobatics = pain. Just a matter of finding that niche.

Note that in Doubles/Triples/VGC, Normal Gem suddenly makes Explosion a viable move again.

Surprised you didn't use the poison gem, if I may.

Other gem effects

This is just to be random, but I'll fill in some more. Water Gem would probably be wet, the Ice Gem is probably just ice, the Fire Gem would probably be very hot, the Rock Gem & Ground Gem probably the only REAL gems for sure...that's all I got so far.
