AOTW: Huge Power and Pure Power

How’s it going, trainers and trainerettes? Your portly purveyor of potent passive pokémon powers is back this week with some peculiar “P”-themed wordplay and yet another Ability of the Week! A couple of weeks ago we recorded episode 40 of It’s Super Effective, and went over a whopping five featured teams. During the episode, we talked about Pierre’s team, and his Cubone. You’ll notice the held item, Thick Club attached to Cubone. This item doubles the Attack stat of Cubone and its evolution, Marowak. And I thought to myself, “Man, Wil. You need to be not so fat.” But then I thought, “Wouldn’t it be great if there was an Ability with the same effect as the Thick Club?” Well, after I gave up on the notion of not being so fat (this is America, after all), I found not one, but TWO Abilities that can do the same thing as the Thick Club for your pokémon. Settle in, this is Ability of the Week: Huge Power AND Pure Power!

Message from "SBJ"

Hey Guys!

First off, I want to thank all of the fans. I posted on my personal Twitter last night about some recent stuff going on... some good... some bad... The point of the matter is, you guys, the Fans, are the reason I wake up in the morning, the reason I stay up late working on the site, you guys are the reason I keep pushing through everyday. On a personal level, I’ve had a lot of dramatic changes in my life that have left me more so heartbroken then anything. While I feel like I am a strong person, I don’t think my days would go as well without hearing, talking, and communicating with you guys. So thank you all so much. 

Your probably wondering why I am taking time out of your busy schedule to write a letter.
