      Actually, Pokemon originates from Japan. That is why the series is called 'Anime'.

      Yep.

      If you don't believe me, look it up! Japanese episodes come a year b4 they arrive in the USA, and I think 2 years b4 the UK.
      Same goes for the games (like that Mysterious Dungeon game I have to get my hands on!)

      My wife's sister-in-law is Chinese, and her advise was "Don't go camping in the country - they'll rob you."

      So there you go, have a nice trip

      I have friends teaching English there for the the last couple years, and anywhere you go is going to be awesome.

      Happy Trails.

      Wow awesome. Sounds like you had lots of good times over there. Enjoy the cheap goods? I bet you spent like 10 dollars in total for all your meals.

      you will need 5 pokeballs because pokeregulations say that a trainer can only carry 5 pokemon on his or her person at one time. and in china, if they find you in violation of any pokeregulations they remove your pokeballs... with chopsticks.

      also be sure to get your fill of the internet before you go over... chinese government doesn't really enjoy... information.

      Ni Hao ma!?

      ...anyways I did china. It was a pretty exciting place. Uh first night in Beijing we pulled a cliche tourist move...went out drinking at a club and it turned out to be some chinese gay bar. And for some strange reason we went back later that night(there was a good reason to go back, i think? cant really remeber though)...and at first we saw what we thot were girls in the club...but I'll never forget the look on my friends face...when one of trannys came up beside him (he was drunk enough to think it was a girl up to this point) and said in a low chinese accented voice..wanna dance.... yah in beijing we saw the sights of Mao's tomb and the great wall, Tien'amen square and forbidden city.
      We went to a smaller town and stayed at a school there. I especially enjoyed the 25cent bottles of beer and the even cheaper cigaretts, cigars and hard liquor (i dont smoke..but at those prices why not...I quit when i came back to the taxed-out prices in canada)
      Anwys the trip was great...I did see some pokemon (some people call what i saw "birds" or "lady bugs" but yah...i knew they were gd pokemon mostly from red and blue version.)
      Btw yes i did more than drink and smoke i learned important things such as culture and talking to people my age growing up in a far different, but deep down similar world as mine.
      has anyone been to the Shanghai dance club Rojam? its pretty cool, check it out if you go there. It was great...especially as some rich chinese guy named "Craig Knife" bought me and my friends Hennessey, beer and white russians all night...other than buying foreigners drinks Craig K. also enjoys drunken chants with us saying either "Fuck George Bush!" or "Fuck America!" lol...those crazy chinese! (btw nothing against you american's we didnt mean it)
      Another exciting thing i would recomend to only the stupidist ppl here is try eating a large amount of chinese hash before making your way through the post 9/11 Shainhigh airport...very intense I will never do that again...
      The trip was really great if you ever have a chance to go to china go for it...the people are very hospitable...and the english translations of information signs are often hilarious, but never completely correct...

      so hows dv anything new? it looks different...and there were 52 pages of messages since my last visit. maybe ill put up some pictures of the trip sometime too

      Hahaha. That was great. I'd pick it apart and highlight the funniest parts of that post, but the whole damn thing was hilarious.

      And I know they've got the lo mein over there, but if they don't have crab rangoon, I'm sparking a 'terrorist regime' rumor so we can bomb the hell out of them for playing with my emotions.

      Did you bring a Pokemon?
      When I'm at the pearly gates, this'll be on my videotape. Mephistopheles is just beneath, and he's reaching up to grab me. This is one for the good days, and I have it all here in red, blue, green... You are my center when I spin away, out of control on videotape. This is my way of saying goodbye because I can't do it face to face, I'm talking to you before... No matter what happens now I shouldn't be afraid because i know today has been the most perfect day I've ever seen.

      why? meh something to do...learn about another culture...party with my friends in china...and i couldnt turn down a trip paid for by someone else...

      yah I will work on pictures...im lazy though...


      IDK about crab ragoon...lo mein is a type of noodle there. But yah I think you are right...the Chinese food I've had here in North America...is far different than the Chinese food I ate in china...I didnt see any chickenballs or eggrolls or pretty much anyhting we have here...although north america chinese food is just as good sometimes.
