    How many cryptic messages does the US Dollar Bill have?

  3. MorningMoon on February 2nd, 2012 11:02 pm

    So THAT'S what National Treasure was about!

  4. TheTopHatKid on February 2nd, 2012 11:03 pm

    All of them. All of the messages.

  5. Ice_Cold_Water on February 2nd, 2012 11:05 pm

    ooooone is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

  8. ibbolia on February 2nd, 2012 11:10 pm

    28 different types? That's right! It's power level is so weak, we can just make more.

  9. MorningMoon on February 2nd, 2012 11:10 pm

    Professor Pine from the Kansas state estimated that there are 151 cryptic messages on the U.S. Dollar Bill, he has sent several children out to the wild so that they may discover all the cryptic messages.
    One of them thankfully came back with them all, now the mystery can be solved.

    Wait, Professor Maple from the New Jersey state has discovered 100 more cryptic messages. Go discover 'em all!

    Hey! It's a duck!

  11. MasterLuigi452 on February 2nd, 2012 11:18 pm

    Sure the pokemon may be useless, but if you think back in the childhood with Gold/Silver/Crystal, you had tons of fun creating letters with Unowns.
    Because admit it: you spelled your name with Unowns at least once.

  12. Deep Thought on February 2nd, 2012 11:18 pm
  13. ChaosController on February 2nd, 2012 11:19 pm

    If only capturing them led to something worthwhile, like the chance to fight GARY MOTHERFUCKING OAK!

  14. Red on February 2nd, 2012 11:24 pm

    OBJECTION!!!
    I would argue that there are more than 28 types of unown.
    My proof? Take a look:

  15. Red on February 2nd, 2012 11:25 pm

    Duck used hidden power!

  16. TransPM on February 2nd, 2012 11:25 pm

    In gen 2, capturing one of every letter allowed you to print out pictures of Pokemon using the Gameboy printer, which is totally worth the time it takes to catch them all…

  17. Red on February 2nd, 2012 11:26 pm
  18. Souleater676 on February 2nd, 2012 11:27 pm

    A reason why that pokemon types in 2nd gen are practicably pathetic ,
    Uknown, very useless and shameful pokemon
    That prize for catching all 28 better make my day or else…. i729.photobucket.com/albums/ww291/SuperMarioJedi/nerd-rage.gif

  19. TransPM on February 2nd, 2012 11:27 pm

    Also, if you grew up with Gold/Silver/Crystal, you know that there are really 26 different types of unown

  20. Red on February 2nd, 2012 11:28 pm

    Little does spiderman realize that money doesn't grow on trees.

    But seriously, just change "tree" to "dollar bill"

  21. MasterLuigi452 on February 2nd, 2012 11:31 pm

    Ah. Good catch.
    I nearly forgot about that part.

  22. VyseRogueKing on February 2nd, 2012 11:33 pm

    Haha! You just lost yourself a whole dollar!

  23. Rexxmech on February 2nd, 2012 11:33 pm

    I remember in the gold I caught all 26 different Unown because my friend said there was a 27th big, shiny one that would appear, but all I got was a stupid unown dex.

  24. VyseRogueKing on February 2nd, 2012 11:34 pm
  25. Rexxmech on February 2nd, 2012 11:36 pm

    It's super useless!

  26. Awesomecake on February 2nd, 2012 11:42 pm

    It would be great if there were a separate set of Unowns in Japan for every Japanese character. There would be so many more than 28.

  27. TransPM on February 2nd, 2012 11:45 pm

    Your friend was telling the truth! You just forgot to take the unown dex to the truck and push it out of the way! It'll be right next to the Mew

  28. TransPM on February 2nd, 2012 11:46 pm
  29. Valvatorez on February 2nd, 2012 11:47 pm

    Don't worry! Splitting into 28 means that his love is divided 28 ways!

    So I guess Flonne really knew why Unown's are so weak…

  30. Skrist on February 2nd, 2012 11:55 pm

    You would think they'd of run out of ideas for pokemon after cryptic messages…. nope.
    Can't wait to see what they have for the future!

    It's unevolved forms shall be a fork then a spoon.
    It's rival pokemon will be butter knife.

  31. Chimental on February 3rd, 2012 12:32 am

    Ah, Unown, the OCD's nightmare of the pokemon world.

    Who didn't trek the ruins for a good hour looking for the 1/28 that's just not registered in your pokedex?

  32. Mentlegen on February 3rd, 2012 12:33 am

    It's right in the name. Un-Own. Catch it and Un-Own it (let it go). Terrible pun? Yes, and I'll see myself out.

    *beats the elite 4 with a single unown*
    ..I wouldn't exactly say useless

  39. Red on February 3rd, 2012 1:17 am

    plus all the greek and cryllic

    I was told that spelling out the name of pokemon made them appear in the wild.

  48. VaultLegend on February 3rd, 2012 2:13 am

    Just think, each unknown is worth only 1 Radditz.

  49. xxxxxxtheundeadcat on February 3rd, 2012 2:14 am

    I honestly think that in the remake the retro music player would have been a great reward. but nope you just had to talk to this one guy to get that…….

    that was pretty awesome though.

    Poor form, Red, leaving the name of a super-hero unhyphenated.

    …….My spellcheck has a problem with spellcheck, but not with unhyphenated?

    The heck is up with my spellcheck.

    Heavens forbid unhyphenated actually being the correct way to spell that! (or for that matter, a word)

    Well, I can't really remember my strategy in SS, but in D it was actually pretty simple once I realized they were spread about in a pattern, something like three or four different Unown per room.

  57. xxxxxxtheundeadcat on February 3rd, 2012 3:01 am

    I dunno. Maybe a philosopher or something?

    Friend doesn't know Pokémon past the first generation…time to find a new friend.

    I don't know about you guys, but the climax of the Pokémon series was MY generation. (2nd Gen). Johto is the best. Search your feelings, you KNOW this to be true.

    *26 Unown in Gen 2. ! and ? didn't come out until Generation 3.

    And what's this I hear about useless types? You're forgetting that this is the generation that added Dark and Steel. BOY, I BEST BE GETTIN' MAH TYRANITAR TO SHOW YOU WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT.

    And the Unown weren't totally useless. When I was a kid, I thought it was adorable that they rel="nofollow">tried to be radio DJs. Yeah, I know they weren't very good at it, but I thought it was cool to listen to.

  70. Skrist on February 3rd, 2012 7:40 am

    I can't believe someone downvoted you. Arceus actually needs to use the Unown's power to do something as simple* rel="nofollow">as make an egg. The Unown are the most powerful in large clusters. But who prevents you from unleashing their full potential? That's right. Gary Mother- err.. I mean the Pokémon League.

  75. C__F on February 3rd, 2012 8:01 am

    There's the Dragon's Den. Route 34 invented Pokémon breeding. Ecruteak has that kimono dance theater with the gentleman that gives you Surf (eat your heart out, Safari Zone Warden). Kurt's ball workshop. The Goldenrod radio tower. The use of cell phones.

    And also: Mt. Silver.

    That last part's really all that needs to be said.

  76. Deep Thought on February 3rd, 2012 8:05 am

    Not racism, at worst it's self-deprecation. I'm a McLean and proud of it, so no, a little humor never hurt anybody.

  97. Alpar on February 3rd, 2012 2:44 pm

    Actually Souleater's got a point here. Gen 2 imo is the best Pokemon generations (TWO REGIONS AND RED BATTLE ARGUMENT STILL STANDS). It's just that most of the Pokemon sucked.

    Also, consider the following:
    No Pichu would've meant Raichu could evolve.
    Let it seep into your head and then transform into tears.

  98. Zoe on February 3rd, 2012 2:51 pm

    I always liked 3rd gen the best. I loved secret bases! :3

    <img src="http://www.halolz.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/halolz-dot-com-pokemon-raichu-raisay.jpg"&gt;

    Are implying that Pichu's existence prevented them from making an evolution for Raichu? Don't stone evolutions imply it's a final evolution, ergo they had no plans on having Raichu evolve?

  100. BTSnoogans on February 3rd, 2012 3:52 pm

    I always chose Bulbasaur at the start. He always seemed the best to me because the first two gyms were rock and water. Which makes Charmander useless at the start and Squirtle only good for the first gym.

  101. BTSnoogans on February 3rd, 2012 3:56 pm

    It works so well because it also zooms in on the word "seclorum" which makes me think of seclusion.

  102. BTSnoogans on February 3rd, 2012 4:00 pm

    I couldn't. My name is seven letters long and there's only room in your party for six. Although I could've used the short version of my name…

    Oh, no no no. You got confused. That was actually Blue. Those are two completely different people. It's okay though, I hear they get mixed up ALL the time.

  110. Fawful on February 3rd, 2012 5:34 pm

    Well, it is an egg of a legendary….so yeah.

    And my reasoning behind why Unown are so strong together is that the chances that they would have at least one of them for each type is pretty high, thus, they can beat anything with at least one weakness.

  111. Omnomynous on February 3rd, 2012 6:21 pm

    Apparently, the only legitimate use for Unown is to have a cool font. Likewise, the only good thing Chimecho is good for is a decoration/ apostrophe.

  112. Pryde7 on February 3rd, 2012 8:36 pm
