Alg Plays: Pokemon Vietnamese Crystal 11


Alg

2705 views

I don't like this part of the game for some reason, and my reasons are most likely petty and irrational. Luckily for me, this time I had many things to make it tolerable, if not enjoyable. In order:

1: Funny dialogue

2: New and fun team members

3: The ability to speed past the boring parts

4: A highly inspirational soundtrack of Queen and ballet.

 

Without further ado!

Wheat grinding.

The RAGE LAKE contains plot, so yes.

 

It also contains ELFS

I didn't even know you could find the second here.

 

In the last part we discovered LIDEL. In this part, we discover LIDEL's evolution.

And that gave YIFU enough experience to envolve. But to what?

 

[spoiler=Major spoilers!]

And now that that's done, I have back tracking to do. I found an item on the way.

However, I'm not posting the item get scene, because there are some lines that even I won't cross. You'll have to use your imagination for that one.

 

And another catch on the way.

...I'm not sure what's going on here.

Or here.

But I made the most of it.

Time to

Back to the plot.

 

ONE TRAVEL MONTAGE LATER

THE FIRST ALTERNATE LUMI-EGGPLANT INEQUALITY COLOR BASIS ELF

Except not really.

This might look like a botched translation of the item "Red Scale", but it's actually a near-perfect translation... From Latin.

 

I really don't know.

I know even less.

And now I've been conscripted.

This will be on the test. The test that should have happened three chapters ago.

 

On the way back,

Pokemon games usually have an item called "Good Rod". This isn't it.

So here we are back at the plot.

And... Gentlemen?

These gentlemen will attack you if you step in front of those statues. Normally, you can find the switch for that after the first one. I wanted a bit more experience.

But all good things must end.

Meaning that they'll still attack, just not automatically like before.

 

So now I have to find passwords.

And got two for the price of one.

Now to find the... Second? Third? I don't know anymore.

Step 1: enter passwords

Step 2: Talk to birds again little strawberry me baby

Step 3: Combat.

Step 4: ...Breast?

The final part of this arc involves disabling their machine by attacking the bombs that power it. That's not Vietnamese Crystal shenanigans, that's canon.

But I'm not going to let the game railroad me like that.

[11/21/2013 10:52:35 PM] Alg: Sandslash: BREAD

[11/21/2013 10:52:40 PM] Alg: WELP

[11/21/2013 10:53:13 PM] Erika: Believe it came from its Japanese name, "Sandopan"

[11/21/2013 10:53:29 PM] Erika: Pan = Japanese for bread

[12:12:14 AM] Alg: "THE FIRST SHINY ALTERNATE COLOR 色違い LUMI-EGGPLANT INEQUALITY COLOR BASIS ELF"

[12:12:33 AM] Erika: Sounds like something the game would do

[12:13:09 AM | Edited 12:13:23 AM] Erika: But maybe "ALTERNATE LUMI-EGGPLANT INEQUALITY COLOUR BASIS ELF" is more than enough

[12:13:56 AM] Alg: Using that

[12:13:58 AM] Alg: USING IT

As for where that came from... It's a very long story.

You forgot the "Y" at the end of the second word. But other than that, congratulations for figuring it out!

Hey, ALG, got a prize for this guy?

 

Oh, yeah, almost forgot about this bit.

[spoiler=For those wondering about the name we came up with for Shinies. Warning: Wall of text]

[11/22/2013 2:17:43 AM] Alg: Let's see if I can use Google Translate to get an "official" name for shinies for this hack

[11/22/2013 2:18:32 AM] Erika: I'll look on Bulbapedia

[11/22/2013 2:18:48 AM] Alg: I got "Different colors"

[11/22/2013 2:19:13 AM] Erika: I got "iro chigau" - different coloured

[11/22/2013 2:19:29 AM] Erika: And... "hikaru"

[11/22/2013 2:21:12 AM] Alg: "Inequality Color Basis"...? I like

[11/22/2013 2:21:33 AM] Erika: Did you translate that from Japanese to Chinese to Vietnamese to English?

[11/22/2013 2:21:40 AM] Alg: Yes

[11/22/2013 2:21:51 AM] Erika: Lemme try. And I'll actually start with the Japanese

[11/22/2013 2:21:56 AM] Alg: I did

[11/22/2013 2:22:59 AM] Erika: The Japanese -> Chinese is messed up

[11/22/2013 2:23:55 AM] Alg: Oh?

[11/22/2013 2:24:17 AM] Erika: It gives "wrongly-coloured" 颜色错了 instead of what would be the more accurate 不同颜色 (different coloured)

[11/22/2013 2:25:11 AM] Alg: Found a genius bonus, of all things

[11/22/2013 2:27:09 AM] Erika: If you put the latter phrase into Google translate, it gives the Japanese term

[11/22/2013 2:27:26 AM] Erika: But for some reason, the Japanese term gives "wrongly-coloured"

[11/22/2013 2:30:17 AM] Erika: Either way, it's messed up

[11/22/2013 2:30:41 AM] Alg: Yep. Minor note: the game uses British English

[11/22/2013 2:30:52 AM] Erika: Lemme think of how this would work for "hikaru". I think it'll fit better here

[11/22/2013 2:31:11 AM] Erika: "hikaru" is a verb...

[11/22/2013 2:31:46 AM] Erika: I know "hikari" means light (as in, the light from the sun, ETC)

[11/22/2013 2:31:47 AM] Alg: I recognize that as "light", right?

[11/22/2013 2:31:54 AM] Alg: So, to light?

[11/22/2013 2:31:58 AM] Alg: Shine

[11/22/2013 2:32:09 AM] Erika: I think "to shine"

[11/22/2013 2:32:18 AM] Alg: I can english

[11/22/2013 2:32:19 AM] Erika: So that in Chinese would be...

[11/22/2013 2:32:39 AM] Erika: "发光" - giving off light

[11/22/2013 2:32:47 AM] Erika: That's the closest I can think of

[11/22/2013 2:33:23 AM] Erika: And if Google Translate can be trusted, I'm right

[11/22/2013 2:33:40 AM] Erika: So how would one mangle "giving off light"?

[11/22/2013 2:34:17 AM] Alg: Bear in mind that the official term was "Differently colored" in gen 2

[11/22/2013 2:34:22 AM] Erika: OK, I got "luminous"

[11/22/2013 2:34:53 AM] Erika: Basically, I got the Chinese from the Japanese, and then translated to English

[11/22/2013 2:35:07 AM] Erika: Now, if you really wanna mangle it, you can try a pun

[11/22/2013 2:35:25 AM] Alg: That will go badly

[11/22/2013 2:35:34 AM] Erika: I believe "nasu" means "eggplant" in Japanese

[11/22/2013 2:35:53 AM] Erika: Oh, in Japanese, the katakana for "luminous" would be "ruminasu"

[11/22/2013 2:37:52 AM] Erika: So if you really want to make it hilarious, call the shinies "Lumi eggplant"

[11/22/2013 2:38:40 AM] Alg: Is "Inequality Color Basis" still an option?

[11/22/2013 2:38:50 AM] Erika: I think the eggplant's more hilarious

[11/22/2013 2:40:15 AM] Alg: Still works

[11/22/2013 2:40:30 AM] Erika: Use it for the sake of a Shout Out?

[11/22/2013 2:40:38 AM] Erika: Say it's a recursive translation

[11/22/2013 2:41:03 AM] Erika: That we went Japanese -> Chinese -> English -> Japanese -> "Engrish"

[11/22/2013 2:41:15 AM] Erika: Since neither of us knew any Vietnamese

[11/22/2013 2:41:23 AM] Alg: But translaaate

[11/22/2013 2:41:31 AM] Erika: Translate mangles things

[11/22/2013 2:41:46 AM] Alg: That's arguably the point

[11/22/2013 2:41:50 AM] Alg: I mean, look at the game

[11/22/2013 3:12:16 AM] Alg: "THE FIRST SHINY ALTERNATE COLOR 色違い LUMI-EGGPLANT INEQUALITY COLOR BASIS ELF"

[11/22/2013 3:12:36 AM] Erika: Sounds like something the game would do

[11/22/2013 3:13:12 AM] Erika: But maybe "ALTERNATE LUMI-EGGPLANT INEQUALITY COLOUR BASIS ELF" is more than enough

[11/22/2013 3:13:58 AM] Alg: Using that
